ANGELS ON YOUR PILLOW from Peg
By Paul Horner/Peggy Lee

Verse 1: I wish for you the dearest things
Long summer times and endless springs
A happy heart that always sings
And angels on your pillow
Verse 2: All the joys that love can give
As long as there is life to live
A peaceful mind to give you rest
And angels on your pillow
 
Bridge: Someone there at journey's end
Someone who's a faithful friend
Love beginning without end
And angels on your pillow
Verse 3: Cool breezes when you want a breeze
And blessings always when you sneeze
To come and go the way you please
And angels on your pillow

BABY MINE from the movie Dumbo
By Frank Churchhill/Ned Washington

Verse 1: Baby mine don't you cry
Baby mine dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part
Baby of mine
Verse 2: Little one when you play
Pay no heed what they say
Let your eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear
Baby of mine
Bridge: If they knew sweet little you
They would be loving you too
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give just for the right to hold you
Verse 3: From your head down to your toes
You're not much goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Cute as can be
Baby of mine

STAY WITH ME from Into the Woods
By Stephen Sondheim

Verse 1: Don't you know what's out there in the world?
Someone has to shield you from the world
Stay with me
Princes wait there in the world, it's true
Princes, yes, but wolves and humans too
Bridge: Stay at home, I am home
Who out there would love you more than I?
What out there that I cannot supply?
Stay with me
Verse 2: Stay with me
The world is dark and wild
Stay a child
While you can be a child
With me

NEVER NEVER LAND from Peter Pan
By July Styne/Betty Comden& Adolph Green

Verse 1: I know a place where dreams are born
And time is never planned
It's not on any chart
You must find it with your heart
Never Never Land
Verse 2: It might be miles beyond the moon
Or right there where you stand
Just have an open mind
And suddenly you'll find
Never Never Land
Bridge: You'll have a treasure if you stay there
More precious far than gold
And once you have found your way
You will never never grow old
Verse 3: So come with me where dreams are born
And time never planned
Just think of lovely things
And your heart will fly on wings
Forever in Never Never Land

FEED THE BIRDS from Mary Poppins
By  Richard M. Sherman/Roger B. Sherman

Verse 1: Early each day to the steps of St. Paul's
The little old bird woman comes
In her own special way to the people she calls
Come, buy my bags full of crumbs
Come feed the little birds
Show them you care
And you'll be glad if you do
Her young ones are hungry their nests are so bare
All it takes is tuppence from you
Chorus: Feed the birds
Tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag
Feed the birds
That's what she cries
While overhead
Her birds fill the skies
Bridge: All around the cathedral
The saints and apostles
Look down as she sells her wares
Although you can't see it
You know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares




Chorus: Though her words are simple and few
Listen, listen, she's calling to you
Feed the birds
Tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag
(Instrumental)
Though her words are simple and few
Listen, listen, she's calling to you
Feed the birds
Tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag

SLEEPY BABE (SLEEPY MAN) from The Robber Bridegroom
By Robert Waldman/Alfredo Uhry

Verse 1: Been a busy day
With some heavy seas
But you've done your best, sleepy babe
Let your troubles lay
Let your breathing ease
While I rub your back, sleepy babe
 
Chorus: You're all done with the run of the race...for today
You've got plenty of running to face
Come tomorrow
I'm right here, always near
Always lovin' my dear, sleepy babe
Verse 2: Not a girl I know
Has a better deal
Than my life with you, sleepy babe
If I let it show
How you make me feel
We'll be up 'til 2, sleepy babe
Chorus: You're all done with the run of the race...for today
You've got plenty of running to face
Come tomorrow
I'm right here, always near
Always lovin' my dear, sleepy babe
I'm right here, always near
And I love you, my dear sleepy babe

TILL THERE WAS YOU from The Music Man
By Meredith Wilson

Verse 1: There were bells on the hill
But I never heard them ringing
No I never heard them at all
Till there was you
Verse 2: There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No I never saw them at all
Till there was you
Bridge: And there was music
And there were wonderful roses, they tell me
In sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn and dew
Verse 3: There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
Till there was you

And on your way
Stay there in my garden
Where love grows free and wild
Come to my garden
Come sweet child

Stay there in my garden
Where love grows free and wild
Come to my garden
Come sweet child

HEAVEN'S GIFT
By Lora Knight/Julie Klug

Verse 1: Sleep my baby sleep
May you sleep in slumber blessed
May the stars and moon watch over you
May angels sing you to your rest
Verse 2: I hope you always know
I hope you always see
That I will always love you
No matter where you will be
Bridge: I can see your beautiful face
Your bright and magical smile
I dream to hold you in my arms
If only for a while
Verse 3: Now God is holding you
My little one so sweet
May angels sing you baby
Into a peaceful sleep
(Instrumental)
You're the apple of my eye
You're the song in my heart
But most of all my baby
Heaven's gift you are

ASLEEP IN MY ARMS
By Ron Abel/Chuck Steffan

Verse 1: Sleep baby, I'm here beside you
You're safe while you're asleep in my arms
The world is somewhere behind
Don't worry your mind
Wondering who cares about you
Verse 2:  Just sleep baby, I'm here beside you
You're safe while you're asleep in my arms
And if someday it seems
You'll run out of dreams
We'll hide one away just for the day
So sleep...
Verse 3: You're safe while you're asleep in my arms
Two arms holding you tight
Makes everything right
I'll hold you again but until then
Just sleep baby...momma's here beside you (repeats)

NEW WORDS from In The Beginning
By Maury Weston

Verse 1: Look up there, high above us
In a sky of blackest silk
See how round like a cookie
See how white, as white as milk
Call it the moon, my child
Say "moon"
Sounds like your spoon, my child
Can you say it
New word today - say "moon"
Verse 2: Near the moon brightly turning
See the shining sparks of light
Each one new, each one burning
Through the darkness of the night
We call them stars, my child
Say "stars"
That one is Mars, my child
Can you say it
New word today - say "stars"
Bridge: As they blink all around us
Playing starry-eyed games
Who would think it astounds us
Simply naming their names
Verse 3: Turn your eyes from the skies now
Turn around and look at me
There's a light in my eyes now
And a word for what you see
We call it love, my child
Say "love"
So hard to say, my child
It gets harder
New words today, we'll work to say
Learn "moon", learn "stars", learn "love"

WHY DO I LOVE YOU? from Showboat
By  Hammerstein II/Kern

Verse 1: Why do I love you?
Why do you love me?
Why must there be two happy as we?
Can you see the why or wherefore?
I should be the one you care for?
Verse 2: You're lucky, babe
I am lucky too
All our dreams of joy
Seem to come true
Maybe that's because you love me
Maybe that's why I love you
(Instrumental)
Repeat Verse 2
