This one is from my favorite musical

One day more
Another day another destiny
This never ending road to Calvary
These men who seem o know my crime
Will surely come a second time
One day more

I did not live until today
How can I live when we are parted

One day more

Tomorrow you'll be worlds away
And yet with you my world has started

One more day all on my own

Will we ever meet again

One more day with him not caring

I was born to be with you

What a life I might have known

And I swear I will be true

But he never saw me there

One more day before the storm

Do I follow where she goes

At the barricades of freedom

Do I join my brothers there

When our ranks begin to form

Do I stay do I dare

Will you take your place with me

The time is now the day is here

One day more

One more day to revolution
We will nip it in the bud
I will join these little school boys
They will wet themselves in blood

One day more

Watch em run amok
Catch em as they fall
Never know your luck when there's a free for all
Here a little dip
There a little touch
Most of em are goners
So they won't miss much

One day to a new begining

Raise the flag of freedom high

Every man will be a king

Every man will be a King

There's a new world to be winning

There's a new world to be won

Do you hear the people sing

My place is here I fight with you

One day more

I did not live until today

One more day I'm on my own

How can I live when we are parted

I will join these people's heroes
I will follow where they go
I will learn their little secrets
I will know the things they know

Tomorrow you'll be worlds away

What a life I might have known

And yet with you my world has started

One more day to revolution
We will nip it in a bud
We'll be ready for these schoolboys

Watch em run amok
Catch em as they fall
Never know your luck when there's a free for all

Tomorrrow we'll be far away
Tomorrow is the judgement day

Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in heaven has in store
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!

Les Miserables, One Day More.

Well, if we're going for musicals...

Drie
Is that from Aida?
nome
Nope! Actually, this is hard. Brand new, just off broadway.
nome
Alrighty... guess nobody's seen it yet. It was a little much to hope for.

HINT: Based on a classic book written by a woman. Romance, obviously.
Drie
I have absolutely no idea. Wicked? But that wasn't written by a woman . . .
nome
Nope. And it's not something you'd think they'd make into a musical, but it's VERY good.

Think Jane Austen-era.





Edited 'cause I can't type.
Drie
Oh, I know this one, but I can't think of the name! My last boss thought it was incredible . . . but very sad.

Damn! ranting.gif My brain is failing me today.

It's not from Pride and Prejudice is it?
nome
Negative. (sorry for delay -- I'm out of town nearly all this week.)

Here's an "easy" one.

I don't know the rules to this thread, but is the answer "Cell Block Tango"?
Drie
I don't know if we've ever established any rules. The songs were from musical theater, but I just posted one from a movie (which you guessed correctly!). So, up to you if you should decide to post lyrics to a movie or musical play!
Jerry
Can I post lyrics to a song?

If yes, then here it is - one of my favorite songs:

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains...
Drie
Ah, gotta love that song. Sound of Silence is beautifully written and performed. Nice choice!


Hmm, let's see.

QUOTE
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway
With the mission bells
And I was thinking to myself,
"This could be heaven or this could be hell"


Always a favorite of mine. whistling.gif

Here's another of my favorites"

I am just a poor boy and my story’s seldom told
I’ve squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises
All lies and jest, still the man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest, hmmmm.....


You could probably see who is one of my favorite composers by now if you've read this thread... tongue.gif
hockeygod
I believe this is "The Boxer." I also think Simon and Garfunkle are awesome.

Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the mornin' last.
Just kickin' down the cobblestones,
Lookin' for fun and feelin' groovy.
Ba da da da da da da, feelin' groovy.
Jerry
That would be "Feeling Groovy" (Seekers - 59th st. Bridge Song)


"Calling out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat
Summer’s near and the time is right
For dancing in the streets
All over the world"

Entropy
'Dancing in the street'. I am not 100 percent sure which singer's version you're quoting, but I know on of my all-time favorite singers did the song... Bowie! (alright, Bowie and Mick Jagger, but still Bowie)

Hmmmm, an easy one since I'm late for work.

"It's a beautiful life, and I've got it in my sights
And that ain't for all of us
It's a beautiful sound
When my life comes crashin' down
That ain't so obvious
It's a beautiful sin, and I'm doin' it again
And that ain't for all of us "
Jerry
That's 'We Are The Normal', I believe.

"Can you feel it? watching you in the darkness
Touching you like a sickness
Fear is taking control,
The beach head is the street.
In the gutter lies defeat.
Fear is the key to your soul
That makes you dangerous
So dangerous to yourself"
hershey
Dangerous Lyrics by The Who

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the hope in every heart will speak what love has done
Jerry
I think it's 'Testify to Love' by Avalon. I'm not really sure, though.
hershey
You are correct again sir. You are on a role, however the artist I prefer is Wynonna.

Sing us a song Jerry! whistling.gif
Jerry
Okay, call me old-fashioned, but I love this song...

"Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass"

Good Luck. smile.gif
Sergeant Hartman
Kiss me goodbye and write me while I'm gone
Goodbye me sweetheart hello Vietnam.

I believe Jerry's was morning has broken

And when you come and all the flowers are dying
If i am dead as dead i well may be
you'll come and find the place where i am lying

Good Luck

Jerry
"Oh Danny Boy"? ermm.gif
blonde_jenius
Yup! Your turn whistling.gif
Jerry
Okay, here we go:

"Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on"


Should be easy biggrin.gif

I'm going to have to kill you now. "My Heart Will Go On."

Gave forgiveness I'd been denying,

Covered in the springtime
With those wild daffodils
Sitting in those Piney Woods..."

Correct. smile.gif

And neither I have wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row - my love and I


It's a song I have to sing for all state dry.gif
Drie
Ah, a great song. I think the official title is "The Water Is Wide." I had to sing that in middle school.

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is gray
I went for a walk
On a winter's day
Robert
California Dreaming bythe Mamas & the Papas

"Friends all tried to warn me
But I held my head up high
All the time they warned me
But I only passed them by
They all tried to tell me
But I guess I didn't care
I turned my back and
Left them standing there"
Jerry

Right! Batter up!

"Try to tell me what I shouldn't do
You should know by now, that
I won't listen to you
Walk around with my hands up in the air
Cause I don't care"

I need to take a shower when I look at you
You sting and hurt like a bad tattoo

Overdrive, Katy Rose

I feel stunning
And entrancing
Feel like running and dancing for joy
For I'm loved by a pretty wonderful boy!

I have had this in my head for 5 days now, sombody help me before I go inSANE.

I Feel Pretty from West Side Story.

You may want to write out all the lyrics. I've heard somewhere that is the best way to get a song out of your head!

And they say goldfish have no memories
I guess their lives are much like mine
And the little plastic castle
Is a surprise every time
Jerry
"Little Plastic Castle" ? ermm.gif

"I don't need no arms around me
And I dont need no drugs to calm me.
I have seen the writing on the wall.
Don't think I need anything at all.
No! Don't think I'll need anything at all.
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall.
All in all you were all just bricks in the wall"

My mom used to sing me to sleep with this one. It's going to be one of those songs I sing softly to myself and bawl when she passes. I almost cry now, when I'm homesick and singing it. crybaby.gif
