3. Thousand Years S/A: Heart beats fast, colours and pro-mis-ses
How to be brave? How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone,
all of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
All (Chorus): One step closer
I have died, every day waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
All: Time stands still, beauty in all she is, I will be brave
I will not let anything take away what’s standing in front of me
Every breath, every hour has come to this
Chorus
All: And all along, I believed, I would find you
Time has brought, your heart to me, I have loved you for a thousand years
Instrumental
One step closer
Ooo_____
Thousand Years

4. The Scientist B: Come up to meet you, tell you I’m sorry,
You don’t know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you, Tell you I’ll set you apart
Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions,
Oh let’s go back to the start, Running in circles, coming up tails,
heads on a silence apart
S/A: Nobody said it was easy
B: It’s such a shame for us to part
S/A: Nobody said it was easy
B: No one ever said it would be this hard, Oh take me back to the start
S/A: I was just guessing, at numbers and figures, Pulling the puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress,
That must speak as loud as my heart
All: Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails, coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy, oh It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy, no one ever said it would be so hard
A/B: Ah__ S: I’m going back to the start_____
A/B: Nobody said it was easy oh, oh, oh, oh
A/B: Nobody said it was easy oh, oh, oh (x2) S: Ah______ (x1)
All: Nobody says it was easy

5. The Song That Goes Like This
Once in every show there comes a song like this
It starts out soft and low and ends up with a kiss,
Oh where is the song that goes like this? Where is it? Where? Where?
A sentimental song that casts a magic spell
They all will hum along, we’ll over act as well
Oh this is the song that goes like this, Yes, it is! Yes, it is! Yes, it is! Yes, it is!
Now we can go straight…into the middle eight
A bridge that is too far for me
I’ll sing it in your face, while we both embrace And then, we’ll change the key
Now we’re into E, that’s awfully high for me
But everyone can see (slide) we should have stayed in D
For this is our song that goes like this!
I’m feeling very proud You’re singing far too loud
That's the way that this song goes You’re standing on my toes
Singing the song that goes like this!
I can’t believe there’s more, it’s far too long I’m sure
That’s the trouble with this song, it goes on and on and on
For this is the song that is too long
We’ll be singing this till dawn, You’ll wish that you weren’t born
Let’s stop this refrain, before we go insane
The song always ends like this!
The Song That Goes Like This

6. Somewhere Only We Know I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river, and it made me complete
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go?
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere Only We Know

7. Autumn Leaves The falling leaves, drift by my window
The autumn leaves, of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer mis-ses
The sun kissed hands, I used to hold (hands I used to hold)
Since you went away, the days grow long ( the days grow long)
And soon I’ll hear old winters song
And soon I’ll hear the melody old winters song it haunts me now you’re gone
But I miss you most of all my darling, when autumn leaves start to fall
Autumn leaves…leaves they start to fall
The falling leaves…
Fall….ing the leaves are fall…ing the leaves are fall…ing the leaves are fall…ing the leaves are
Sops & Men repeat x2
Alto: See the leaves they fall x3, fall-ing slow-ly (repeat line)
Sops: original tune
Altos: round and, see the leaves as they fall x3, fall-ing, fall-ing
Men: The leaves are fall…ing x4 (repeat)
Since you went away…
But I miss you most of all…
When autumn leaves…
Autumn Leaves

8. One Voice This is the sound of one voice One spirit, one voice
The sound of one who makes a choice
This is the sound of one voice (x2)
This is the sound of voices two
The sound of me singing with you
Helping each other to make it through
This is the sound of voices two (x2)
This is the sound of voices three
Singing together in harmony
Surrendering to the mystery
This is the sound of voices three (x2)
This is the sound of all of us
Singing with love and the will to trust
Leave the rest behind it will turn to dust
This is the sound of all of us (x2) oooooo….
One people, one voice
A song for every one of us
One Voice

9. Believe Children sleeping, Snow is softly falling
Dreams are calling, Likes bells in the distance
We were dreamers, Not so long ago
But one by one, We all had to grow up
When it seems the magic slipped away, We find it all again on Christmas Day
Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that's playing
There's no time to waste, There’s so much to celebrate
Believe in what you feel inside
And give your dreams the wings to fly
You have everything you need, If you just believe
Trains move quickly, To their journey's end
Destinations are where we begin again
Ships go sailing, Far across the sea
Trusting starlight, To get where they need to be
When it seems that we have lost our way
We find ourselves again on Christmas Day
If you just believe
Just believe
Believe
Believe

10. Sheep Sheep Sheep! Hello, how are you? Hi Fine, I'm very well
And how's the wife and children? They're doing fine as well.
Have you heard this crazy rumour? What about that baby Jew? I really can't believe it
Yeah! I know it's true what?
How can you be so certain? You must be off your head!
Why? They say he's born in Bethlehem and you haven't got there yet!
Ah but why d'you think I'm going? Its cos I know its right: I saw an apparition,
You saw an apparition? It happened in the night,
Part A:
While I was guarding sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep, baa-baa, baa-baa
sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep, baa-baa, baa-baa
All the world lay fast asleep,
but we were guarding sheep, sheep, sheep.
Part B:
While I was guarding sheep,
A flock of ewes and rams
their tender little lambs.
We haven't got much choice!
We'll have to offer....  
Sheep Sheep Sheep!
So tell me how it happened, and don't give me no lies
well, I was keeping watch last night when way up in the skies
I saw this funny twinkle and though it may sound daft I thought it was a fairy
What? Don't make me laugh!
I saw I'd got it wrong though, when it came closer down,
It must have been an angel, cos glory shone around
Cor! I bet you weren't half frightened
well it didn't quite connect, A visit from an angel
A visit from an angel?
is not what you expect
When you are guarding....
Tell me what the angel said Behold I bring you tidings of great joy!
To all people? Yes, he said a saviour's come!
Born on earth a little baby boy? In a manger for a bed
In Bethlehem? Thats what the angel said.
Both: And suddenly a heav'nly host praise father, son and holy ghost!
So now you've heard my story tell me do you believe its true?
It sounds a bit unlikey, but yes I think I do!
Both: Let's both go off to Bethlehem and to the Lord rejoice,
We'd better take offering
what can we take as an offering? We haven’t got much choice
Both: We’ll have to offer sheep….

11. I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
When I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud
So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
But I've often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can?
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan
So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!
Thank You for the Music
