The Returning Song

*Dedicated to Tobias and little Sam*
Lyrics (Mostly by me):
I've dreamed of this
Always feeling it
Was me.
And sparks of light
In my human heart
Came to be.
I let her try
Hoping she could fly
I held her close
I cried her silent tears
I walked with her
Hand in hand all these years.


And just when I
Thought life had passed me by
We met
That first time
I was not alone
I can't forget
I breathed your love
In my broken heart
I knew you'd catch me every time
I fell
And now I know
Why I'm here
I live to tell:

What good is sitting alone on your cloud?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

Put on your costume
And join in the game
It's time to put on a play.
Life is Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

Come taste the wine,
Come hear the band.
Come blow your horn,
Start celebrating;
Right this way,
Your world is waiting

Put down the notebooks
And throw your hat high
It is Graduation Day.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
So come to the Cabaret!

I used to be all serious
And grumpy
I used to think that life
Was meant to taunt me.

The doctor said I was depressed
And gave me...
Ten pills a day
And said they'd make me happy.

But something in me knew
And kept insisting:
There must be more to life
Than just existing.

And then one night I saw her in my dream
She was the prettiest... ME...
I'd ever seen.

And though I thought I was completely mad
I had to smile when she turned to me and said:
"What good is sitting all alone in your room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret."

This time I'll dance, this time I'll sing,
I'll have a blast 'cause I've been burning,
This time 'round I AM RETURNING!

Start by admitting
From cradle to tomb
It isn't that long a stay. (You can do it again)
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
It's only a Cabaret, old chum,
And I love a Cabaret!
