Artsplash 2015 Lyrics

1. Phantom of the Opera
In sleep he sang to me in dreams he came,
that voice which calls to me and speaks my name. And do I dream again? for now I find
the phantom of the opera is there inside my mind.

Sing once again with me our strange duet;
my power over you grows stronger yet.
And though you turn from me to glance behind, the phantom of the opera is there inside your mind.

(Instrumental)
He's there, the Phantom of the opera. Beware the Phantom of the opera.
In all your fantasies you always knew
that man and mystery were both in you.
And in this Iabyrinth where night is blind,
the phantom of the opera is here inside your mind.

He's there the Phantom of the opera. Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

2. Think of Me
Think of me, think of me fondly, when we've said goodbye. Remember me once in a while, please promise me you'll try.
When you find that once again you long
to take your heart back and be free,
if you ever find a moment, spare a thought for me.

(Instrumental)
We always said our love was evergreen
or as unchanging as the sea,
but if you can still remember, stop and think of me.

Think of all the things we've shared and seen; don't think about the things which might have been.
Think of me, think of me fondly, when we've said goodbye. Remember me once in a while, please promise me you'll try.
We always said our love was evergreen
or as unchanging as the sea,
but if you can still remember, stop and think of me

3. All I Ask of You
No more talk of darkness, forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you, my words will warm and calm you Let me be your freedom, let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here with you, beside you, to guard you and to guide you.

Say you'll share with me one life, one life-time;
Turn my head with talk of summertime
Share each day with me, and light each morning.
Promise me that all you say is true, that's all I ask of (you).

Let me be your shelter, let me be your light;
You're safe, no-one will find you, your fears are far behind you. All I want is freedom, a world with no more night;
And you, always beside me, to guard me and to guide me.

Then say you'll share with me one life, one lifetime; let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you need me with you here beside you, anywhere you go, let me go too,

Love me, that's all I ask of you.
Say you you'll share with me one life one lifetime; say the word and I will follow you.
Share each day with me, and light each morning. Say you love me! - You know I do.

Love me, that's all I ask of you.
(Instrumental)
Anywhere you go, let me go too; love me, that's all I ask of you.

4. Corner of the Sky
Everything has its season, everything has its time Show me a reason and I’ll soon show you a rhyme. Cats fit on the windowsill, children fit in the snow When I’m singing I can fit in
Anywhere I go
Chorus:
Rivers belong where they can ramble Fantails belong where they can fly
I’ve got to be where my spirit can run free, Got to find my corner of the sky
Every man has his daydreams, everyone has a goal
People like the way dreams have of sticking to the soul Thunderclouds have their lightning, Tuis have their song
Don’t you see, I want my life to be something more than long?
Chorus:
Rivers belong where they can ramble Fantails belong where they can fly
I’ve got to be where my spirit can run free, Got to find my corner of the sky
Instrumental
Chorus:
Rivers belong where they can ramble Fantails belong where they can fly
I’ve got to be where my spirit can run free, Got to find my corner of the sky

5. LOVE
Love, love, love. Yes, it's love. Love, love, love, that's right!
L is for the way you look at me,
O is for the only one I see.
V is very, very extra-ordinary.
E is even more than any one that you adore can. Love is all that I can give to you.

Love is more than just a game for two. Two in love can make it,
take my heart and please don't break it, love was made for me and you.

Love, love, love. Yes, it's love. Love, Love, love, that's right!
L is for the way you look at me,
O is for the only one I see.
V is very, very extra-ordinary.
E is even more than any one that you adore can. Love is all that I can give to you.

Love is more than just a game for two. Two in love can make it,
take my heart and please don't break it, love was made for me and you

Love, love, love. Yes, it's love Love, Love, love that's right!
That's almost true. For me and you.

6. Quando, Quando, Quando
Tell me when will you be mine,
tell me quando, quando, quando.
We can share a love divine, please don't make me wait a-gain.

When will you say "yes" to me,
tell me quando, quando, quando.
You mean happiness for me, oh, my love, please tell me when.

Ev'ry moment's a day ev'ry day seems a life-time. Let me show you the way to a joy beyond compare
I can't wait a moment more
tell me quando, quando, quando
Say it's me that you a-dore, and then darling tell me when.

(Instrumental)
Ev'ry moment's a day ev'ry day seems a life-time. Let me show you the way to a joy beyond compare
I can't wait a moment more

7. Blame it on the Boogie
My baby's always dancin' and it wouldn't be a bad thing But I don't get no lovin' and that's no lie
We spent the night in Frisco at every kinda disco
From that night I kissed our love goodbye

Chorus:
Don't blame it on sunshine. Don't blame it on the moonlight. Don't blame it on the good times. Blame it on the boogie. x2
Verse 2:
That nasty boogie bugs me, but somehow how it has got me
Its spellbound rhythm gets me on my feet
I've changed my life completely, I've seen the lightning leave me My baby just can't take her eyes off me.

Back to Chorus.....
I just can't, I just can't, I just can't control my feet.
I just can't, I just can't, I just can't control my feet. x2
Back to Chorus.....
8 Bar instrumental
Sunshine (Yeah), Boogie.
You just gotta Sunshine (Yeah), Boogie.
Moonlight (Yeah), Moonlight (Yeah),
Good times (Mmm), Good times (Good times),
Back to Chorus.....

8. Don’t Dream it’s Over
There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There’s a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you never see the end of the road while you’re trav’lin with me
Chorus:
Hey now, hey now, don’t dream it’s over
Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in They come, they come to build a wall between us. We know they won’t win.
Now I’m towing my car, there’s a hole in the roof,
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there’s no proof
In the paper today tears of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page.

Hey now, hey now, don’t dream it’s over
Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in They come, they come to build a wall between us. We know they won’t win.
(Instrumental)
Hey now, hey now, don’t dream it’s over
Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in They come, they come to build a wall between us. We know they won’t win.
Don’t dream, don’t dream, don’t dream.

9. Sons of Gallipoli
We sang "God of Nat-ions at thy feet"
as we stood on that sacred shore
With a heart-felt pride somewhere deep inside for the Sons of Gallipoli.

We sang "E Ihowa Atua"
from the place they call Anzac Cove
We gazed out to sea where our home would be for the Sons of Gallipoli.

How still you lie and how still you die, on other hillsides.
We sang "Hear our voices we entreatas the wind blew from off the sea.
With a tearful sigh and the question why for the Sons of Gallipoli.

We sang "God defend our free land
and for all whose lives are torn
With one voice implore no more talk of war for the Sons of Gallipoli.

How still you lie and how still you die on other hillsides, on other hill-sides.
HUM VERSE AND CHORUS
How still you lie and how still you die on other hillsides, on other hill-sides.

10. WWI Medley:
a) Bye Bye Blackbird

Pack up all my care and woe; here I go, singing low,
Bye bye blackbird.
Where somebody waits for me, sugar's sweet, so is she,

Bye bye blackbird.
No one here can love and understand me Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me. Make my bed and light the light.
I'll arrive late tonight.
Blackbird, bye bye.

10. WWI Medley:
b) Pack up your Troubles

Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag, And smile, smile, smile
Pack up up your troubles in your old kit bag, Smile. boys, that's the style.

What's the use of worrying?
It never was worthwhile, so
Pack up your troubles in your old kitbag, And smile, smile, smile.

(Whistle Tune)
What's the use of worrying?
It never was worthwhile, so
Pack up your troubles in your old kitbag, And smile, smile, smile.

10. WWI Medley:
c)
It’s a Long Way to Tipperary
It's a long way to Tipperary, It's a long way to go;
It's a long way to Tipperary, to the sweetest girl I know!

Good-bye Piccadilly, farewell, Leicester Square, It's a long, long way to Tipperary,
But my heart's right there!

It's a long way to Tipperary, It's a long way to go;
It's a long way to Tipperary, To the sweetest girl I know!

Good-bye Piccadilly, farewell, Leicester Square, It's a long, long way to Tipperary,
But my heart's right there!

11. Po Atarau
Po atarau
E moe a iho nei E haere ana Koe ki pamamao Ha-ere ra
Ka hoki mai ano Ki i te tau
E tangi atu nei.

Now is the hour
When we must say goodbye.
Soon you’ll be sailing
Far across the sea.
While you’re away
Oh please remember me When you return,
You’ll find me waiting here.


12. Wish me Luck
Wish me luck,
as you wave me goodbye,
cheer io, here I go on my way.
Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye, with a cheer, not a tear, I can say.

Give me a smile I can keep all the while in my heart while I`m away.
Till we meet once again you and I
Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye.

Wish me luck, as you wave me goodbye, cheer io, here I go on my way.
Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye, with a cheer, not a tear, make it gay.

Give me a smile I can keep all the while in my heart while I`m away.
Till we meet once again you and I

Wish me luck--- as- you- wave- me--- good- bye-----.
