1. Mamma Mia
I’ve been cheated by you since I don’t know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn?
I don’t know how but I suddenly lose control
There’s a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything, o-o-o-oh
Mamma mia, here I go again, My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again? My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted, Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go? Mamma mia, now I really know,
My my, I could never let you go.
I’ve been angry and sad about things that you do
I can’t count all the times that I’ve told you “we’re through”
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won’t be away too long
You know that I’m not that strong
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Mamma mia, here I go again, My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again? My my, just how much I’ve missed you
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted, Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go?
Mamma mia, even if I say, “Bye bye, leave me now or never”
Mamma mia, it’s a game we play, “Bye bye” doesn’t mean forever
Mamma mia, here I go again, My my, how can I resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I’ve missed you?
Yes, I’ve been brokenhearted, Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did I ever let you go? Mamma mia, now I really know
My my, I could never let you go
My my, I could never let you go
2. Memory
Daylight, see the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading, Roses wither away
Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting … for the day
Midnight, not a sound on the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days, I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory … live again
Every streetlamp seems to beat A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters and a streetlamp gutters, And soon it will be morning
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life, And I mustn’t give in
When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too
And a new day … will begin
Burnt out ends of smokey days, The stale cold smell of morning
A streetlamp dies another night is over, Another day is dawning
Touch me, it’s so easy to leave me, All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me you’ll understand what happiness is,
Look, a new day … has begun

5. I Whistle A Happy Tune
Whenever I feel afraid I hold my head erect
And whistle a happy tune so no one will suspect I’m afraid
While shivering in my shoes I strike a careless pose
And whistle a happy tune and no one ever knows I’m afraid
The result of this deception is very strange to tell
For when I fool the people I fear I fool myself as well
I whistle a happy tune and every single time
The happiness in the tune convinces me that I’m not afraid
Make believe you’re brave and the trick will take you far
You may be as brave as you make believe you are
You may be as brave as you make believe you are
I whistle a happy tune and every single time
The happiness in the tune convinces me that I’m not afraid
6. Black Hills Of Dakota
Take me back to the Black Hills, the Black Hills of Dakota
To the beautiful Indian country that I love
Lost my heart in the Black Hills, the Black Hills of Dakota
Where the pines are so high that they kiss the sky above
And when I get that lonesome feeling
And I’m miles away from home
I hear the voice of the mystic mountains calling me back home
So take me back to the Black Hills, the Black Hills of Dakota
To the beautiful Indian country that I love
Black hills, black hills, though I’ve wandered far away
Black hills, black hills, I’ll come back to you someday
Where the deer and the buffalo roam
And the red wing feathers her nest
That the place that I call my home
The land that I love the best, so take me
Take me back to the Black Hills, the Black Hills of Dakota
To the beautiful Indian country that I love
Lost my heart in the Black Hills, the Black Hills of Dakota
Where the pines are so high that they kiss the sky above
And when I get that lonesome feeling
And I’m miles away from home
I hear the voice of the mystic mountains calling me back home
So take me back to the Black Hills, the Black Hills of Dakota
To the beautiful Indian country that I love
To the beautiful Indian country that I love
To the beautiful Indian country that I love
7. On The Street Where You Live
I have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before.
All at once am I sev’ral stories high.
Knowing I’m on the street where you live.
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of ev’ry door?
No, it’s just on the street where you live!
And oh! The towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The o – verpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear!
People stop and stare, they don’t bother me
For there’s nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I won’t care if I
Can be here on the street where you live
8. Circle Of Life
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There’s more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
In the circle of life
It’s the wheel of fortune
It’s the leap of faith
It’s the band of hope
‘Til we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars
There’s far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
In the circle of life
It’s the wheel of fortune
It’s the leap of faith
It’s the band of hope
‘Til we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle of life
It’s the wheel of fortune
It’s the leap of faith
It’s the band of hope
‘Til we find our place
On the path unwinding
9. I Could Have Danced All Night
Bed, bed! I couldn’t go to bed
My head’s too light to try to set it down
Sleep, sleep! I couldn’t sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown
I could have danced all night,
I could have danced all night,
And still have begged for more!
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I’ve nev- er done be – fore!
I’ll never know what made it so ex – ci – ting;
Why all at once my heart took flight
I on – ly know when she began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night!
10. Shall We Dance
We’ve just been introduced, I do not know you well
But when the music started, something drew me to your side
So many men and girls are in each other’s arms
It made me think we might be similarly occupied
Shall we dance?
On a bright cloud of music, shall we fly?
Shall we dance?
Shall we then say “Goodnight” and mean “Goodbye”?
Or perchance, when the last little star has left the sky
Shall we still be together
With our arms around each other
And shall you be my new romance?
On the clear understanding
That this kind of thing can happen
Shall we dance? Shall we dance? Shall we dance?
11. Thank You For The Music
I’m nothing special, in fact I’m a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you’ve probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
‘Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I’m so grateful and proud, all I want is to sing it out loud
So I say thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be, without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I’ve often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can? Well, whoever it was, I’m a fan
So I say thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be, without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
I’ve been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!
So I say thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be, without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
12. Secret Love
Once I had a secret love..
that lived within the heart of me.
All too soon my secret love..
became impatient to be free.
So, I told the friendly star..
the way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
and why I’m so in love with you
Now, I shout it from the highest hills
even told the golden daffo..dils
At last my heart’s an open door
and my secret love’s no secret anymore
Now, I shout it from the highest hills
even told the golden daffo..dils
At last my heart’s an open door
and my secret love’s no secret anymore
13. Consider Yourself
Consider yourself at home, consider yourself one of the family
I’ve taken to you so strong, it’s clear, we’re going to get a-long
Consider yourself well in, consider yourself part of the furniture
There isn’t a lot to spare, who cares?
Whatever we’ve got we share!
If it should chance to be we should see some harder days
Empty larder days, why grouse?
Always a chance we’ll meet, somebody to foot the bill
Then the drinks are on the house!
Consider yourself our mate
We don’t want to have no fuss,
For, after some consideration, we can state
Consider yourself, one of us!
Consider yourself at home, consider yourself one of the family
I’ve taken to you so strong, it’s clear, we’re, going to get a-long
Consider yourself well in, consider yourself part of the furniture
There isn’t a lot to spare, who cares?
Whatever we’ve got we share!
Nobody tries to be lah-di-dah or uppity.
There’s a cup-o’-tea for all
Only it’s wise to be, handy with a rolling pin
When the landlord comes to call
Consider yourself our mate
We don’t want to have no fuss,
For, after some consideration, we can state
Consider yourself, one of us!
Consider yourself, one of us!
Consider yourself, one of us!
14. Do You Hear The People Sing
Do you hear the people sing,
Singing the song of angry men,
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again,
When the beating of your heart,
Echoes the beating of the drum,
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes.
Will you join in our crusade
Who will be strong and stand with me,
Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see,
Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free,
Do you hear the people sing, singing the song of angry men,
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again,
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums,
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes.
Will you give all you can give so that our banner may advance,
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take the chance
The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France!
Do you hear the people sing, singing the song of angry men,
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again,
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drum,
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes.
15. Let’s Go Fly A Kite
Let’s go fly a kite up to the highest height,
Let’s go fly a kite and send it soaring!
Up through the atmosphere, up where the air is clear,
Oh, let’s go fly a kite!
With tuppence for paper and strings,
You can have your own set of wings.
With your feet on the ground you’re a bird in flight,
With your fist holding tight to the string of your kite.
Oh, oh, oh!
Let’s go fly a kite up to the highest height,
Let’s go fly a kite and send it soaring!
Up through the atmosphere, up where the air is clear,
Oh, let’s go fly a kite!
When you send it flyin’ up there,
All at once you’re lighter than air.
You can dance on the breeze over ‘ouses and trees,
With your fist ‘olding tight to the string of your kite.
Oh, oh, oh!
Let’s go fly a kite up to the highest height,
Let’s go fly a kite and send it soaring!
Up through the atmosphere, up where the air is clear,
Oh, let’s go fly a kite!
16. Some Enchanted Evening
Once you have found her, Never let her go
Once you have found her, Never let her
Some enchanted evening, You may see a stranger
You may see a stranger Across a crowded room
And somehow you know, You know even then
That somewhere you’ll see her Again and again
Some enchanted evening Someone may be laughin’
You may hear her laughin’ Across a crowded room
And night after night, As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter Will sing in your dreams
Who can explain it, who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons, wise men never try
Some enchanted evening, when you find your true love
When you feel her call you across a crowded room
Then fly to her side, And make her your own
Or all through your life you May dream all alone
Once you have found her, Never let her go
Once you have found her, Ne-ver let her … go!
17. Leaning On A Lamp Post
I’m leaning on a lamp, maybe you think, I look a tramp,
Or you may think I’m hanging ’round to steal a car
But no I’m not a crook, and if you think, that’s what I look,
I’ll tell you why I’m here, and what my motives are
I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
In case a certain little lady comes by, Oh me, oh my,
I hope the little lady comes by
I don’t know if she’ll get away, she doesn’t always get away,
But anyhow I know that she’ll try Oh me, oh my,
I hope the little lady comes by
There’s no other girl I would wait for,
but this one I’d break any date for,
I won’t have to ask what she’s late for,
she wouldn’t have to leave me flat,
She’s not a girl like that
Oh, she’s absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful.
And anyone can understand why,
I’m leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by
18. You’ll Never Walk Alone
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm
There’s a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm
There’s a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll ne-ver walk alone
19. Any Dream Will Do
I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain what I thought I knew
Far, far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do
I wore my coat (I wore my coat), with golden lining (aah-aah-aah)
Bright colours shining (aah-aah), wonderful and new
And in the east (and in the east), the dawn was breaking (aah-aah-aah)
And the world was waking (aah-aah) any dream will do
A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colours faded into darkness, I was left alone
(aah-aah-aah-aah-ah!)
May I return (may I return) to the beginning (aah-aah-aah)
The light is dimming (aah-aah), and the dream is too
The world and I (the world and I)
We are still waiting (aah-aah-aah), still hesitating (aah-aah)
A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colours faded into darkness, I was left alone
(aah-aah-aah-aah-ah!)
May I return (may I return) to the beginning (aah-aah-aah)
The light is dimming (aah-aah), and the dream is too
The world and I (the world and I)
We are still waiting (aah-aah-aah), still hesitating (aah-aah)
Any dream will do, any dream, any dre-am, any dream
Any dream will do, any dream, any dre-am, any dream
Any dream will do
Give me my coloured coat, my amazing, coloured coat
Give me my coloured coat, my amazing … coloured … coat
