Barbra Streisand
"I Have Dreamed/We Kiss In A Shadow"
We kiss in a shadow
We hide from the moon
Our meetings are few
And over too soon
I have dreamed
That your arms
Are lovely...
I have dreamed
What a joy
Youç£l be...
I have dreamed
Every word you whisper
(We speak in a whisper)
When youç£e close to me
Close to me
Afraid to be heard
Alone in our secret
Together we sigh
For one smiling day
To be free...
How you look
In the glow of evening
(To kiss in the sunlight)
I have dreamed
And enjoyed the view
(And say to the sky... )
In these dreams
Iç£e loved you so
That by now I think I know
What itç£ó like to be loved by you
(Behold and believe)
I will love
Being loved by you
He will not always say
What you would have him say
But now and then heç£l say
Something wonderful
The thoughtless things heç£l do
Will hurt and worry you
Then all at once, heç£l do
Something wonderful
He has a thousand dreams
That wonç£ come true
You know that he believes in them
And thatç£ó enough for you
Youç£l always go along
Defend him when heç£ó wrong
And tell him when heç£ó strong
He is wonderful.
Heç£l always need your love
And so heç£l get your love
A man who needs your love
Can be wonderful!

I Know Him So Well
Barbra Streisand
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long.
Looking back I could have played it differently
One of few more moments who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well.
Wasnç£ it good? Oh so good
Wasnç£ he fine? Oh so fine
Isnç£ it madness he canç£ be mine?
But in the end he needs
A little bit more than me
More She needs security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well.
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide.
Looking back I could have played it differently
Could have played things some other way.
Learn about the man before I fell
I was just a little careless
But I was ever so much younger then.
I was so much younger then
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasnç£ it good? Oh so good
Wasnç£ he fine? Oh so fine
Isnç£ it madness he wonç£ be mine?
Didnç£ I know how it would go?
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart?
Wasnç£ he fine? Isnç£ it madness
He wonç£ be mine?
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More She needs security
He needs his Fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand me
I know him so well.

As If We Never Said Goodbye
Barbra Streisand
Written by: Andrew Lloyd Webber, Don Black, Christopher Hampton
I donç£ know why Iç£ frightened
I know my way around here
The cardboard trees, the painted scenes, the sound here
Yes a world to rediscover,
But Iç£ not in any hurry
And I need a moment
The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways,
The atmosphere as thrilling here as always
Feel the early morning madness
Feel the magic in the making
Why everythingç£ó as if we never said goodbye
Iç£e spent so many mornings
Just trying to resist you
Iç£ trembling now
You canç£ know how Iç£e missed you,
Missed the fairy-tail adventures
In this ever-spinning playground
We were young together
Iç£ coming out of make-up
The lights already burning,
Not long until the cameraç£ó will start turning
And the early morning madness
And the magic in the making
Yes everything is as if we never said goodbye
I donç£ want to be alone thatç£ó all in the past,
This world has waited long enough
Iç£e come home at last
And this time will be bigger,
And brighter than we knew it
So watch me fly, we all know I can do it
Could I stop my hand from shaking?
Has there ever been a moment with so much to live for?
The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways
So much to say not just today but always
Weç£l have early morning madness
Weç£l have magic in the making
Yes everything is as if we never said goodbye
Oh, please donç£ ever ever make me say goodbye!!!
