Arrowbear
Arrowbear, Arrowbear
We’re so happy to be here
Where we share with those who care
Music and friendship so dear

Mountain and magic fills heart and soul
Clear bright skies so blue
Arrowbear, Arrowbear
We’ll be sorry to leave you

Today
Oh I’ll be your dandy and I’ll be your rover
You’ll know who I am by the songs that I sing
I’ll feast at your table and sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow shall bring?

Chorus:
Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I’ll taste your strawberries, I’ll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrow shall all pass away
Air I forget all the joys that are mine today

I can’t be contended with yesterday’s glories
I can’t live on promises winter ‘till spring
Today is my moment and now is my story
I’ll laugh, and I’ll cry and I’ll sing

Chorus

Where Have All the Flowers Gone?
Where have all the flowers gone
Long time passing (where have they gone)
Where have all the flowers gone
Long Time ago (I wanna know)
Where have all the flowers gone
Gone to young girls everyone
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young girls gone
Long time passing (where have they gone)
Where have all the young girls gone
Long time ago (I wanna know)
Where have all the young girls gone
Gone to young men everyone
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young men gone
Long time passing (where have they gone)
Where have all the young girls gone
Long time ago (I wanna know)
Where have all the young men gone
Gone to soldiers everyone
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the soldiers gone
Long time passing (where have they gone)
Where have all the soldiers gone
Long time ago (I wanna know)
Where have all the soldiers gone
Gone to graveyards everyone
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the graveyards gone
Long time passing (where have they gone)
Where have all the graveyards gone
Long time ago (I wanna know)
Where have all the graveyards gone
Gone to flowers everyone
When will they ever learn
When will they ever learn?

Circle Game

Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
And tearful at the falling of a star

Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
Skated over ten clear frozen streams
Words like when you're older must appease him
And promises of someday make his dreams

And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town
And they tell him take your time it won't be long now
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down

And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true
There'll be new dreams maybe better dreams and plenty
Before the last revolving year is through

And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

Shooting Star
Oh Please won't you catch a Shooting Star for me
And take it with you on your way
Though it seems like we've just met, you're the one I won't forget
Hope some kind wind blows you back my way
CHORUS:
And I was thinking maybe somewhere later down the road
After all our stories have been told
I'll sit and think of you, the dear friend I once knew
Shot through my life like a shooting star
You are so dear, your my bright and shining star
You brighten up each and every day
You are so near, but soon you'll be so far
So why not hold my hand today?
CHORUS
Sometimes I know that a part of you will show
Deep in my heart and in my smile
There will always be a part of you deep inside my heart
And I'll know just when to let it go
CHORUS

Magic
When I was young I thought the stars were made for wishing on
And every hole deep in a tree might hide a leprechaun
Old houses all had secret rooms, if one could find the key
I do believe in magic, I believe.
Chorus:
Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, I believe.

Growing up the grown-ups said someday I'd wake to find
That magic's just a childhood game I'd have to leave behind
Like clothes that would no longer fit and toys that I'd ignore
I'd not believe in magic anymore.

When I grew up I learned again, that much to my surprise
Magic did not fade away, it wears a new disguise
A child, a friend, a smile, a song, the courage to stand tall
I do believe in magic, after all.
Last Chorus:
Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, Love is the greatest magic,
I do believe in magic, I believe.

You’ve Got a Friend

When you're down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name,
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yes I will
To see you again, oh baby don’t ya know ‘bout
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend.

If the skies above you
Should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
And soon I will be knocking upon your door.

You just call out my name,
and you’ll know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yes I will, to see you again, oh baby don’t ya know ‘bout
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You’ve got a friend

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, don't you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've got to do is call.
I will be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
