Someday, I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That’s where you’ll find me
– Over the Rainbow & What a Wonderful World Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
Do you remember the night we met
That’s the night I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you how much I love you
But I’m drowning in the sea of love
– Sea of Love Singer Tom Waits, Writers Philip Baptiste and George Khoury
The many ways you speak of love, I’ve heard before, but it sounds so good every time
Please say the part that I love just once more, darling I’m so glad that you’re mine
Talk to me, talk to me, hold me close, whisper low
Talk to me, can’t you see, darling, I … I love you so
– Talk to Me Singer Jimmy Burns, Writer Joe Seneca
