1. TAKE ON ME - AHA

We’re talking away I don't know what I'm to say I'll say it anyway Today's another day to ﬁnd you Shying away I'll be coming for your love, okay?

[Chorus] Take on me (Take on me) Take me on (Take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two

So needless to say I'm odds and ends But I'll be stumbling away Slowly learning that life is okay Say after me It's no better to be safe than sorry

[Chorus]

Oh, things that you say Is it a life or just to play my worries away? You're all the things I've got to remember You're shying away I'll be coming for you anyway

[Outro] Take on me (Take on me) Take me on (Take on me) I'll be gone In a day Take on me (Take on me) Take me on (Take on me) I'll be gone In a day or twooooooo 2. April Come She Will - Simon and Garfunkel

April, come she will When streams are ripe and swelled with rain May, she will stay Resting in my arms again

June, she'll change her tune In restless walks she'll prowl the night July, she will ﬂy And give no warning to her ﬂight

August, die she must The autumn winds blow chilly and cold September, I'll remember A love once new has now grown old

3. Crazy Love - Poco

Tonight I'm gonna break away Just to wait and see I've never been imprisoned by A faded memory

Just when I think I'm over her This broken heart will mend I hear her name and I have to cry The tears come down again

[chorus] It happens all the time This crazy love of mine Wraps around my heart Refusing to unwind Ooh-ooh, crazy love, Aaaaahhhhh

Count the stars in the summer sky That fall without a sound And then pretend that you can't hear These teardrops coming down

[chorus]

Tonight I'm gonna break away Just to wait and see I've never been imprisoned by A faded memory

[chorus]

4. Harry Truman - Tom Hunter

He had lived up there since 'twenty-nine, Run a lodge and ﬁlled his time Drinkin' whisky, raisin' cats and telling big tall tales And now the mountain home he had Was shaking, like the earth gone mad, When they warned him, he said "No, I think I'll stay."

[chorus] If the mountain goes, Then I'll go with it. If the mountain goes, I'll go a-long If the mountain goes, Then I'll go with it. I'm gonna stay right here 'cause here's where I belong.

He said "The earthquake scared me bad up here, But I've walked this mountain for ﬁfty years And it ain't gonna get me if the damn thing ever blows. Besides I've got food, four weeks supply, And whiskey, no, I'll never run dry, I am this mountain, you can ask her, she knows."

[chorus]

Then on May eighteenth, Saint Helens blew It tore the mountain right in two With trees ripped, clouds of ash, the earth was glowing red. As for Harry, no one knows, He's up there still so the legend goes While the newspapers list him missing, presumed dead.

Now some say death's like going home How the worst fate is to die alone, Far from the people and the places you have known. Maybe that's why Harry wouldn't leave, It doesn't really matter what we believe, Whether dead or alive old Harry's still at home.

[chorus]

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes Five hundred twenty five thousand moments so dear Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes How do you measure? Measure a year?

In daylights, In sunsets, In midnights, In cups of coﬀee, In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife

In ﬁve hundred twenty ﬁve thousand six hundred minutes How do you measure a year in a life?

How about love? How about love? How about love? Measure in love... Seasons of love... Seasons of love...

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes Five hundred twenty five thousand journeys to plan Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes How do you measure a life of a woman or a man?

In truths that she learned Or in times that she cried In bridges he burned Or the way that she died Its time now to sing out though The story never ends Let's celebrate remember a year in a life Of friends

Remember the love... Remember the love... Remember the love... Measure in love… Seasons of love... Seasons of love...

I feel so unsure As I take your hand and lead you to the dance ﬂoor As the music dies Something in your eyes Calls to mind a silver screen And all its sad goodbyes

[chorus] I'm never gonna dance again Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should have known better than to cheat a friend And waste a chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you

Time can never mend The careless whisper of a good friend To the heart and mind Ignorance is kind There's no comfort in the truth Pain is all you'll ﬁnd

[chorus]

Tonight the music seems so loud I wish that we could lose this crowd Maybe it's better this way We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say We could have been so good together, We could have lived this dance forever But now, who's gonna dance with me? Please stay

[chorus]

8. Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper

Lying in my bed, I hear the clock tick and think of you Caught up in circles Confusion is nothing new Flashback, warm nights Almost left behind Suitcase of memories Time after

Sometimes you picture me I'm walking too far ahead You're calling to me, I can't hear What you've said Then you say, "go slow" And I fall behind The second hand unwinds

[chorus] If you're lost you can look and you will ﬁnd me Time after time If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting Time after time If you're lost, you can look and you will ﬁnd me Time after time If you fall, I will catch you, I will be waiting Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has Turned to gray Watching through windows You're wondering if I'm okay Secrets stolen from deep inside (deep inside) And the drum beats out of time

If you're lost you can look and you will ﬁnd me Time after time If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting Time after Time

But you say to go slow I fall behind The second hand unwinds

[chorus]

Thank you so much for singing! See you in a couple weeks!
