14 3I can see you’re thinking, babyI’ve been thinking tooAbout the way we used to beAnd how to start anewMaybe I’m a hopeless dreamerMaybe I’ve got it wrongBut I’m going where the grass is greenIf you’d like to come along
Back when I was starting outI always wanted moreBut every time I got it I still felt just like beforeFortune is a fickle friendI’m tired of chasing fameAnd when I look into your eyesI know you feel the same
All these years of living largeAre starting to do us inI won’t say it wasn’t funBut now it has to end Life is moving oh-so-fastI think we should take it slowRest our heads upon the grassAnd listen to it grow
Going where the hills are greenAnd the cars are few and farDays are full of splendorAt night you can see the starsLife’s been moving oh-so-fastI think we should take it slowRest our heads upon the grassAnd listen to it grow

My dear LorenzoYou take my handAnd understandThe tears that I have cried
We light the candlesAnd pour the wineAnd laugh as if You’ll never leave my side
You take me In your arms and tell meThat I’ll always be the only one...And then you’re gone!
You come to see meOn a SaturdayPresenting peoniesKnowing just what to say
We dance untilThe break of dawnI turn my backAnd then you’re gone
Swirling in a sea of starsTwirling to the strum of guitarsNo one tangos quite the way you doBut now my dancing days with you are through
You think I miss youEach time you disappearMaybe I used toBut it’s becoming clear
AND THEN YOU’RE GONEAfter Franz Schubert's Fantasy in F-minor, Op. 103, for piano four-hands

I know your tricksI’ve heard your songYou swear your love And then you’re gone
Remember last timeIt was a perfect dayYou took me sailingAnd then you sailed away
Now here you areOutside my doorYou want back inJust like beforeWell save your breathDon’t make me yawnYou’ve had your chanceNow just be gone

He sits with his paperAt a Sunday tableJust another morningShe steps into his gaze
He looks at herShe looks at himFor a moment there is nowhere she is goingHe looks at herShe looks at himFor a moment they could almost fall in love
Not a word is spokenNo touch, no heart brokenJust another morningOf a beautiful day

Over the valleyI saw a silver cloudWith a pink liningI said it right out loudThere’s no denyingYou are my one and only loveAnd we’ll see over the valleyThe moon rise above
Over the valleyThis house among the treesWhere we’ve been hidingMaking our memoriesAnd I’m decidingYou are my one and only loveAnd we’ll be over the valleyAs the moon shines above
The autumn breezes carry all the bluebirdsDown to where the sun still shinesIf we could hold this dayIn our hearts some wayWe would never roamEver far from home
Over the valleyJust above the frayThe sun is settingAnd when we’re old and greyI’ll still be bettingYou are my one and only loveAnd over the valleyThe moon shines above
The autumn breezes carry all the bluebirdsDown to where the sun still shinesIf we could hold this dayIn our hearts somewayWe would never roamEver far from home

New Amsterdam was her nameBefore she was New YorkNew Amsterdam is a dameThe heart and soul of Big Apple city
No matter what name she goes underI dig her deeply and no wonderFor she’s been lovely to meAnd I’m the better for having met her

My dear LorenzoYou take my handAnd understandThe tears that I have cried
We light the candlesAnd pour the wineAnd laugh as if You’ll never leave my side
You take me In your arms and tell meThat I’ll always be the only one...And then you’re gone!
You come to see meOn a SaturdayPresenting peoniesKnowing just what to say
We dance untilThe break of dawnI turn my backAnd then you’re gone
Swirling in a sea of starsTwirling to the strum of guitarsNo one tangos quite the way you doBut now my dancing days with you are through
You think I miss youEach time you disappearMaybe I used toBut it’s becoming clear
AND THEN YOU’RE GONEAfter Franz Schubert's Fantasy in F-minor, Op. 103, for piano four-hands

I know your tricksI’ve heard your songYou swear your love And then you’re gone
Remember last timeIt was a perfect dayYou took me sailingAnd then you sailed away
Now here you areOutside my doorYou want back inJust like beforeWell save your breathDon’t make me yawnYou’ve had your chanceNow just be gone

14 3I can see you’re thinking, babyI’ve been thinking tooAbout the way we used to beAnd how to start anewMaybe I’m a hopeless dreamerMaybe I’ve got it wrongBut I’m going where the grass is greenIf you’d like to come along
Back when I was starting outI always wanted moreBut every time I got it I still felt just like beforeFortune is a fickle friendI’m tired of chasing fameAnd when I look into your eyesI know you feel the same
All these years of living largeAre starting to do us inI won’t say it wasn’t funBut now it has to end Life is moving oh-so-fastI think we should take it slowRest our heads upon the grassAnd listen to it grow
Going where the hills are greenAnd the cars are few and farDays are full of splendorAt night you can see the starsLife’s been moving oh-so-fastI think we should take it slowRest our heads upon the grassAnd listen to it grow
