Hands touch
Eyes meet
Sudden silence
Sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl.
Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl.
Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what might have been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in....
Blithe smile
Lithe limb
She who's winsome
She wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl
Don't wish
Don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so....
I'm not that girl.

If Ever I Would Leave You - Camelot
If ever I would leave you
It wouldn't be in summer
How I'd leave in summer
I never will know
Your hair streaked with sunlight
Your lips red as flame
Your face with a luster
That puts gold to shame!
But if I'd ever leave you
It couldn't be in autumn.
How I'd leave in autumn
I never would know.
I've seen how you sparkle
When fall nips the air
I know you in autumn
And I must be there!
And could I leave you
Running merrily through the snow?
Or on a wintry evening
When you catch the fire's glow?
If ever I would leave you
It wouldn't be in springtime
Seeing how in spring
I'm bewitched by you so!
Oh, no
Not in springtime,
Summer, winter, or fall.
No, never could I leave you
At all!

Without You - My Fair Lady
What a fool I was
What a dominated fool
To think you were the earth and sky.
What a fool I was!
What an addlepated fool
What a mutton-headed dolt was I!
No, my reverberating friend
You are not the beginning and the end...
There'll be spring every year without you,
England still will be here without you.
There'll be fruit on the tree
And a shore by the sea
There'll be crumpets and tea without you!
Art and music will thrive without you
Somehow Keets will survive without you,
And there still will be rain
On that plain down in Spain
Even that will remain without you!
I can do without you!
You, dear friend, who talks so well,
You can go to... Hartford, Hereford, and Hampshire!
They can still rule the land without you!
Windsor Castle will stand without you
And without much ado,
We can all muddle through without you!
Without your pulling it
The tide comes in,
Without your twirling it
The Earth can spin
Without your pushing them
The clouds roll by!
If they can do without you, ducky!
So can I!
I shall not feel alone without you
I can stand on my own without you!
So go back in your shell,
I can do bloody well...
Without you!

A Big Part of Me - Jade Enders
Chorus:
A big part of me
Says I should be sorry.
A big part of me
Says I should move on
But a bigger part of me
Says I'll never be sorry
A bigger part of me
Know I can't move on!
So I'll keep wallowing
In my misery
'Cuz I'll never be sorry!
Verse One:
She's movin'
She's goin'
Far, far away.
Delaware is a world to me.
She's movin'
She's leavin'
Just wants to get away.
So I say I hate her
I'll never forgive her
But I know there'll come a day when...
Chorus
Verse Two:
He's leavin'
He's flyin'
Away to Tennessee.
He says he still loves me, but...
He's leavin'
He's flyin'
He's getting remarried!
So I say I hate him
I'll never forgive him
But I know there'll come a day when....
Chorus
Verse Three:
Sorry takes forgiveness
Lots and lots of forgiveness
Something I'm not good at.
Sorry takes lots of love
Love is something I have lost
Maybe sometime soon I'll love again
Maybe then I'll stop thinkin'
Chorus
I think you probably know full well who this one is about.

For Good - Wicked
Elphaba:
I'm limited
Just look at me.
I'm limited
And just look at you
You can do all I couldn't do,
Glinda.
So now it's up to you
For both of us...
Now it's up to you....
Glinda:
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives
For a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are lead
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Now I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you!
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed
For the better?
But, because I knew you,
I have been changed for good.
Elphaba:
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made from what I learned from you.
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart.
And now whatever way our stories end
You know you have rewritten mine
By being my friend!
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a sky-bird
In a distant wood...
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But, because I knew you...
Glinda:
Because I knew you
Elphaba:
Because I knew you
Both:
I have been changed
For good....
Dedicated to all those that I have loved and lost: Glenda Fabian, Wally Keefer, Nicholynn Keefer, to be specific.
