"A Piece Of Sky" lyrics
"A Piece Of Sky"
(from "Yentl" soundtrack)
Tell me where
Where is it written
What it is I'm meant to be?
That I can't dare
It all began the day I found
That from my window
I could only see
A piece of sky
I stepped outside and looked around
I never dreamed it was so wide
Or even half as high
The time had come, papa, can you hear me?
To try my wings, papa, are you near me?
And even though it seemed at any moment I could fall
I felt the most, papa, can you see me?
Amazing things, can you understand me?
The things you can't imagine
If you've never flown at all
Though it's safer to stay on the ground
Sometimes where danger lies
There the sweetest of pleasures are found
No matter where I go
There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve
But there will also be
More to question, yet more to believe
Oh, tell me where
Where is the someone who will turn to look at me
And want to share
My every sweet-imagined possibility?
The more I live, the more I learn
The more I learn, the more I realize
The less I know
Each step I take, papa, I've a voice now
Each page I turn, papa, I've a choice now
Each mile I travel only means
The more I have to go
What's wrong with wanting more?
If you can fly, then soar
With all there is, why settle for
Just a piece of sky?
Papa, I can hear you
Papa, I can see you
Papa, I can feel you
Papa, watch me fly

The Carpenters - "Superstar" Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio Don't you remember you told me you...
Tom Jones - "I (Who Have Nothing)" I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Adore you, and want you so
I'm just a no one,
With nothing to give you but Oh
I Love You
He, He buys you diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But believe...
Neil Sedaka - "The Hungry Years" Girl we made it to the top
We went so high we couldn't stop
We climbed the ladder leading us nowhere
Two of us together
Building castles in the air
We spun so fast we couldn't tell
The gold ring...
Irene Cara - "Out Here On My Own" Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am, do I fit in?
Make-believing is hard alone
Out here, on my own
We're always proving
Who we are
Always reaching
For that rising star
To guide me far
And...
Sheena Easton - "You Could Have Been With Me" You're the seventh son of the seventh son
Maybe that's why you're such a strange and special one
You can't even seem to love yourself
And with a few exceptions, not anybody else
You can lead a horse...
