Hello Middle and Senior Choir students and parents!

As I have told most of you, we will be performing at the Uniting Agewell Hawthorn Centre Christmas Fete on Saturday 25th November, NEXT Saturday.

There is a notice that is still being collated and signed at the office that I will get out to you as soon as possible, but in the meantime, here are your songs to practice!

Thank you!

Ms McKenzie

True Colours

You with the sad eyes
Don’t be discouraged
Oh I realize
Its hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small

But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile then,
Don’t be unhappy, can’t remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you’ve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I’ll be there

And I’ll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

If this world makes you crazy
And you’ve taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I’ll be there

And I’ll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let them show

Pure Imagination

Come with me and you’ll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you’ll see
Into your imagination

We’ll begin with a spin
Traveling in the world of my creation
What we’ll see will defy explanation

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
There’s nothing to it

There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there you’ll be free
If you truly wish to be

If you want to see magic lands
Close your eyes and you will see one
Want to be a dreamer, be one
Anytime you please and please save me one

Come with me and you’ll be
In a world of pure imagination
Take a look and you’ll see
Into your imagination

There is no place to go
To compare with your imagination
So go there to be free
If you truly wish to be

Living there
You’ll be free
If you truly wish to be

I feel better When I’m Dancing

How Far I’ll Go/La Bleu Lumiere

Lyrics

I’ve been staring at the edge of the water
‘Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try

J’ai beau dire « je reste, je n’partirai pas
Chacun de mes gestes, chacun de mes pas
Me ramène sans cesse, malgré les promesses
Vers ce bleu lumière

L’horizon où la mer touche le ciel et m’appelle
Cache un trésor que tous ignorent
C’est le vent, doucement, qui se lève et me révèle
Le bleu de l’eau
Si je pars, j’irai plus loin et toujours plus haut

I know everybody on this island, seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
I know everybody on this island has a role on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I’ll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?

See the light as it shines on the sea? It’s blinding
But no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it’s calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know, what’s beyond that line, will I cross that line?

L’horizon où la mer touche le ciel et m’appelle
Cache un trésor que tous ignorent
C’est le vent, doucement, qui se lève et me révèle
Le bleu de l’eau

How far I’ll go

Flashlight

Flashlight Accompaniment

Lyrics

When tomorrow comes, I’ll be on my own

Feeling frightened of The things that I don’t know

When tomorrow comes Tomorrow comes

Tomorrow comes

And though the road is long I look up to the sky

And in the dark I found, lost hope that I won’t fly

And I sing along, I sing along, I sing along

I got all I need when I got you and I

I look around me, and see a sweet life

I’m stuck in the dark but you’re my flashlight

You’re getting me, getting me, through the night

Kick start my heart when you shine it in my eyes

Can’t lie, it’s a sweet life

Stuck in the dark but you’re my flashlight

You’re getting me, getting me, through the night

‘Cause you’re my flashlight

You’re my flashlight,

you’re my flashlight

Ooh

I see the shadows long beneath the mountain top

I’m not afraid when the rain won’t stop

‘Cause you light the way

You light the way,

You light the way

I got all I need when I got you and I

I look around me, and see a sweet life

I’m stuck in the dark but you’re my flashlight

You’re getting me, getting me, through the night

Kick start my heart when you shine it in my eyes

Can’t lie, it’s a sweet life

Stuck in the dark but you’re my flashlight

You’re getting me, getting me, through the night

(Light, light, light, you’re my flashlight)

Light, light, you’re my flashlight

Light, light, light, light, light, oh

(Light light light you’re my flashlight)

You’re my flash, oh

I got all I need when I got you and I

I look around me, and see a sweet life

I’m stuck in the dark but you’re my flashlight

You’re getting me, getting me, through the night

Kick start my heart when you shine it in my eyes

Can’t lie, it’s a sweet life

Stuck in the dark but you’re my flashlight

You’re getting me, getting me through the night

‘Cause you’re my flashlight

‘Cause you’re my flashlight

You’re my flashlight

Ooh ooh

Ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh oh oh

You’re my flashlight

Light, light

You’re my flashlight

Light light ye-yeah

(Light light light

You’re my flashlight

Light light)

You’re my flashlight

See You Again

Accompaniment

It’s been a long day without you my friend,
And I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again
We’ve come a long way from where we began,
Oh I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again, when I see you again.

Why’d you have to leave so soon, yeah,
Why’d you have to go,
Why’d you have to leave me when I needed you the most,
‘Cause I don’t really know how to tell ya without feelin’ much worse,
I know you’re in a better place but it’s always gonna hurt,
Carry on,
Give me all the strength I need to carry on.

It’s been a long day without you my friend,
And I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again
We’ve come a long way from where we began,
Oh I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again, when I see you again.

Oooooooooooooooh

How do I breathe without ya I’m feeling so cold,
I’ll be waiting right here for ya, ’til the day you’re home.
Carry on,
Give me all the strength I need to carry on.

So let the light guide your way, yeah,
Hold every memory as you go,
And every road you take will always lead you home, home

It’s been a long day without you my friend,
And I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again
We’ve come a long way from where we began,
Oh I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again, when I see you again.

Oooooooooooooooh

When I see you again, see you again, Yea, When I see you again

Silver Bells

Silver bells, silver bells
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, (ring-a-ling) hear them ring (ting-a-ling)
Soon it will be Christmas day

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style
In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear

Silver bells, (silver bells) silver bells (silver bells)
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, (ring-a-ling)
Hear them ring, (hear them ring)
Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights, even stoplights
Blinkin’ bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch
This is Santa’s big day
And above all this bustle you hear

Silver bells (The corner Santa Claus)
Silver bells (Is busy now because)
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, it fills the winter air
Hear them ring, you hear it everywhere
Soon it will be Christmas day

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks (Silver bells)
Dressed in holiday style (Silver bells)
In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas (It’s Christmas time in the city)
Children laughing, people passing (Ring-a-ling)
Meeting smile after smile (Hear them ring)
Very soon it will be Christmas day

It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas Accompaniment
