SMUSD 3rd-5th Choir Practice Material
So Long, Farewell
There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple, too
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird
Is popping out to say "cuckoo" (Cuckoo, cuckoo)
Regretfully they tell us (Cuckoo)
But firmly they compel us (Cuckoo)
To say goodbye (Cuckoo)
To you
So long, farewell
Auf Wiederseh'n, goodnight
I hate to go
And miss this pretty sight
So long, farewell
Auf Wiederseh'n, adieu
Adieu, adieu
To yieu and yieu and yieu
So long, farewell
Au revoir, auf Wiederseh'n
I'd like to stay
And taste my first champagne. No? No.
So long, farewell
Auf Wiederseh'n, goodbye
I leave, and heave
A sigh and say goodbye. Goodbye-
I'm glad to go I cannot tell a lie
I flit, I float,I fleetly flee, I fly
The sun has gone to bed and so must I
So long, farewell
Auf Wiederseh'n, goodbye
Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye
Performance Track
The Sound of Music: Reprise
The hills are alive
With the sound of music,
Ahh –
With songs they have sung,
For a thousand years.
Ahh –
The hills fill my heart,
With the sound of music.
Ahh –
My heart wants to sing every song it hears.
Every song that it hears.
My heart wants to beat like the wings
Of the birds that rise from the lake
To the trees.
My heart wants to sigh
Like a chime that flies
From a church on a breeze.
I go to the hills
When my heart is lonely.
I know I will hear
What I heard before.
My heart will be blessed
With the sound of music
And I'll sing once more.
