Hear It Calling
words inspired by
Sing! Choir Camp Alumni
music by Anne Fordham
and Ray Fordham
If I run to you
And I find you gone
I could shape-shift into colors
Where I work alone
That’s my comfort zone
Where I think things through
And rely on looking forward
Where my world is blue
Something’s throwing light at me
Like a day is dawning
Something just beyond my reach
Will catch me when I fall
I can hear it calling
Something’s throwing light at me
Like a day is dawning
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling
Something just beyond my reach
Will catch me when I’m falling
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling
Do you ask for help
Does it make you shy
Did you know your biggest fears
All sound just like mine
In the darkest night
When the lights all blow
I could burst into sudden brightness
Here I go
Something’s throwing light at me
Like a day is dawning
Something just beyond my reach
Will catch me when I fall
I can hear it calling
Something’s throwing light at me
Like a day is dawning
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling
Something just beyond my reach
Will catch me when I’m falling
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling
What happens when I’m gone?
My bones are made of mountains
The mountain’s made of bones
What happens when I go?
And even when I’m here
I’m stepping into the unknown
I can hear it calling
Something’s throwing light at me
Like a day is dawning
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling
Something just beyond my reach
Will catch me when I’m falling
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling
I can hear it calling

and Huey Lewis
arranged by Alan Billingsley
Soloist: Ron Runyon
Tell me, doctor,
Where are we going this time
Is this the ’50s, or 1999
All I wanted to do,
Was play my guitar and sing
So, take me away, I don’t mind
But you better promise me,
I’ll be back in time
Gotta get back in time
Don’t bet your future,
On one roll of the dice
You better remember,
Lightning never strikes twice
Please don’t drive eighty-eight,
Don’t want to be late again
So take me away, I don’t mind
But you better promise me,
I’ll be back in time
Gotta get back in time
You gotta get back in time
All I wanted to do,
Was play my guitar and sing
So, take me away, I don’t mind
But you better promise me,
I’ll be back in time
Gotta get back in time
Back, back
Whoa, back in time
You gotta get back in time

I Got Rhythm
words and music by George Gershwin

arranged by Mark Hayes
Choralography: Susan Scanlon
and Rebecca Gottschalk
I got rhythm, I got rhythm,
I got music and magic
And moonlight, and my guy!
Who could ask for anything more,
Anything more?
Days can be sunny
With never a sigh
Don’t need what money
Can buy
Birds in the trees sing
Their dayful of song
Why shouldn’t we sing along?
I’m chipper all the day
Happy with my lot
How do I get that way?
Look at what I’ve got:
I got rhythm
I got music
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?
I got daisies
In green pastures
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?
Old Man Trouble
I don’t mind him
You won’t find him
‘Round my door
I got starlight
I got sweet dreams
I got, I got, I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?
Who could ask for anything more?
I got rhythm
I got music
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more?
I got daisies
In green pastures

Stormy Weather
words by Harold Arlen
music by Ted Koehler
arranged by Jay Althouse
Soloist: Joyce Rice
Don’t know why
There’s no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain’t together
Keeps raining all the time
Life is bare
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather, stormy weather
Just can’t get my poor self together
I’m weary all the time
All the time
When she went away
The blues walked in and met me
If she stays away
Old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray
The Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can’t go on
Everything I had is gone
Stormy weather, stormy weather
Since my man and I, ain’t together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time

Arthur Hotchkiss, Brad Moore,
Debbie Newell, Janis Northquist,

Grab your coat, and get your hat
Leave your worries on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Can’t you hear a pitter-pat?
And that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I’m not afraid
This Rover crossed over
So, if I never have a cent
I’ll be rich as Rockefeller
With gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I’m not afraid
This Rover crossed over
So, if I never have a cent
I’ll be rich as Rockefeller
With gold dust at my feet
On the sunny,
Not on the shady,
But on the sunny,
Yes, on the sunny,
Sunny side of the street
The sunny side of the street

A Sentimental Journey
Thru The 40’s
arranged by Hawley Ades
Sentimental Journey
words by Bud Green
music by Les Brown and Ben Homer
Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories
Got my bag, I got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that, “All aboard”
Seven, that’s the time we leave, at seven
I’ll be waitin’ up for Heaven
Countin’ every mile of railroad track
That takes me back
Never thought my heart
Could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam?
Gotta take this sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
Chattanooga Choo Choo
words by Mark Gordon
music by Harry Warren
Pardon me boy,
Is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Track twenty-nine,
Boy you can gimme a shine
Oh, I can afford
To board a Chattanooga Choo Choo
I’ve got my fare and just a trifle to spare
You leave the Pennsylvania station
‘Bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and
Then you’re in Baltimore
Dinner in the diner, nothing could be finer
Than to have your ham and eggs
In Carolina
When you hear the whistle blowin’
Eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennessee
Is not very far
Shovel all the coal in, gotta keep it rollin’
Woo, woo, Chattanooga,
There you are
There’s gonna be
A certain party at the station
Satin and lace, I used to call funny face
She’s gonna cry
Until I tell her that I’ll never roam
So, Chattanooga Choo Choo
Won’t you choo choo me home?
People Will Say We’re In Love
words by Oscar Hammerstein II
music by Richard Rodgers
Don’t throw bouquets at me
Don’t please my folks too much
Don’t laugh at my jokes too much
People will say we’re in love
Don’t sigh and gaze at me
Your sighs are so like mine
Your eyes mustn’t glow like mine
People will say we’re in love
Don’t start collecting things
Give me my rose and my glove
Sweetheart, they’re suspecting things
People will say we’re in love
Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin’
words by Oscar Hammerstein II

Oh, what a beautiful day
What a beautiful feelin’
Everything’s goin’ my way
You Are My Sunshine
words and music by Jimmie Davis

The other night, dear
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you
In my arms
When I awoke, dear
I was mistaken
And I hung my head and cried
You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You’ll never know, dear
How much I love you
Please don’t take
My sunshine away
Over The Rainbow
words by E. Y. Harburg
music by Harold Arlen
Soloist: Laura Green
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There’s a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why, then, oh, why can’t I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh, why can’t I?

Here’s what I’ve got to say:
They’re my golden rule,
Hey, I’m always cool
In my blue suede shoes!
When we’re out there on the floor
Bustin’ lots of moves, you know
Everybody’s starin’
At my boyfriend’s blue suede shoes
He digs rock and roll,
He’s in control
With his blue suede shoes
My boyfriend’s back
He wears blue suede shoes
Yeah, I love the way he looks
In his blue suede shoes
He digs blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Well, you can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my cider from an old fruit-jar
Do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh honey, lay off of my shoes
But don’t you step on
My blue suede shoes
Well, you can do anything
But lay off of my blue suede shoes
I got blue, blue, blue suede shoes

I’m sittin’ in the mornin’ sun
I’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ comes
Watching the ships roll in
And then I’ll watch ’em roll away again
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the ‘Frisco bay
I have had nothing to live for
Looks like nothin’s gonna come my way
I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time
Look like nothing’s gonna change
Everything remains the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I’ll remain the same
I’m sittin’ here resting my bones
And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home
I’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Wastin’ time

I don’t remember what day it was
And I didn’t notice what time it was
All I know is that I fell in love with you
And if all my dreams come true
I’ll be spending time with you
Every day’s a new day in love with you
With each day comes
A new way of loving you
And every time I kiss your lips
My mind starts to wander
And if all my dreams come true
I’ll be spending time with you
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But, darling, not as much as tomorrow
I’m in love! I can’t believe it!
I’m so in love with you, baby.
You’re all I’ve ever dreamed about.
It’s in the way that you walk and you talk,
And the way you smile at me
With that look in your eyes,
I’m so lucky you came along,
Yeah, so lucky to be lovin’ you!
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But, darling, not as much as tomorrow
I love you more. I love you more.
Yes, I love you more than yesterday,
Yesterday, Yesterday

Been missing ya, miss kissing ya

Leaving me alone and hurt
Think it over. Haven’t I been good to you?
Think it over. Haven’t I been sweet to you?

Oh the long and winding road
That leads to your door
Will never disappear,
I’ve seen that road before
It always leads me here
Lead me to your door
Oh the wild and windy night
That the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears
Crying for the day
Why leave me standing here
Let me know the way
Many times I’ve been alone
And many times I’ve cried
Anyway, you’ll never know
The many ways I’ve tried
But still they lead me back
To the long winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don’t leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door
Many times I’ve been alone
And many times I’ve cried
Anyway, you’ll never know
The many ways I’ve tried
Many times I’ve been alone
And many times I’ve cried
Anyway, you’ll never know
The many ways I’ve tried

Africa
words and music by David Paich
and Jeff Porcaro
arranged by Alex Morris
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers
Of some quiet conversation
She’s coming in, twelve thirty flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars
That guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words
Or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say,
“Hurry boy, it’s waiting there for you”
It’s gonna take a lot
To drag me away from you
There’s nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time
To do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless,
Longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what’s right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus
Above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what’s deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I’ve become
It’s gonna take a lot
To drag me away from you
There’s nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time
To do the things we never had
It’s gonna take a lot
To drag me away from you
There’s nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(It’s gonna take some time)
Gonna take some time

Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I’m only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown
I broke my heart
For every gain
To taste the sweet
I faced the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains
I want one moment in time
When I’m more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams
Are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I’m racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
I’ve lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I’ve laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands
I want one moment in time
When I’m more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams
Are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I’m racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
You’re a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine
Give me one moment in time
When I’m more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams
Are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I’m racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will be
I will be
I will be free, free
I will be free

Me and all my friends
We’re all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing
There’s no way we ever could
Now we see everything that’s going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don’t have the means
To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It’s hard to beat the system
When we’re standing at a distance
So we keep waiting on (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never
Missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
‘Cause when they own the information
They can bend it all they want
That’s why we’re waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Still we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
We’re waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
We’re waiting on the world to change

Who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows? Only time
And who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose? Only time
Who can say why your heart sighs
As your love flies? Only time
And who can say why your heart cries
When your love lies? Only time
Who can say when the roads meet?
That love might be in your heart?
And who can say when the day sleeps
If the night keeps all your heart?
Night keeps all your heart
Who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose? Only time
And who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows? Only time
Who knows? Only time
Who knows? Only time

Stop your crying, baby

Don’t you know I’m no good for you?
I’ve learned to lose you, can’t afford to
Tore my shirt to stop you bleeding
But nothing ever stops you leaving
Quiet when I’m coming home,

Like it like that
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that
Don’t you know too much already?
I’ll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend, but keep me closer
And I’ll call you when the party’s over
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that
Nothing is better sometimes
Once we’ve both said our goodbyes
Let’s just let it go
Let me let it go
Quiet when I’m coming home and
I’m on my own
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that
I could lie and say I like it like that,
Like it like that

It’s Time
words and music by Daniel Reynolds,
Benjamin McKee and Daniel Sermon
original GLEE arrangement by
Adam Anders and Peer Astrom
adapted for publication Mark Brymer
So this is what you meant
When you said that you were spent
And now it’s time to build from the
Bottom of the pit right to the top
Don’t look back
Packing my bags and
Giving the academy a rain-check
I don’t ever want to let you down
I don’t ever want to leave this town
‘Cause after all (‘cause after all)
This city never sleeps at night
It’s time to begin, isn’t it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then
I’ll admit, I’m just the same as I was
Oh, don’t you understand
I’m never changing who I am
So this is where you fell,
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through
Miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don’t look back
Turning to rags and giving the
Commodities a rain-check
I don’t ever want to let you down
I don’t ever want to leave this town
‘Cause after all (‘cause after all)
This city never sleeps at night
It’s time to begin, isn’t it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then
I’ll admit, I’m just the same as I was
Oh, don’t you understand
I’m never changing who I am
It’s time to begin, isn’t it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then
I’ll admit, I’m just the same as I was
Oh, don’t you understand
I’m never changing who I am
Time to begin, isn’t it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then
I’ll admit, I’m just the same as I was
Oh, don’t you understand
I’m never changing who I am

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We occupy the unceded ancestral lands of Coast Salish Nations, whose people still steward this land today.
This land touches the shared waters of all tribes and bands within the Duwamish, Puyallup, Suquamish, Tulalip, Snoqualmie and Muckleshoot nations. Some of these tribes and bands still fight for Federal recognition.
