Lyrics:

I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream

I know you, the gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam

Yet I know it's true that visions are seldom all they seem

But if I know you, I know what you'll do

You'll love me at once

The way you did once upon a dream

Lyrics:

My power flurries through the air into the ground

My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around

And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast

I'm never going back, the past in the past

Let it go, let it go

And I'll rise like the break of dawn

Let it go, let it go

That perfect girl is gone

Here I stand in the light of day

Let the storm rage on

The cold never bothered me anyway

Alto 1: "Waiting on a Miracle" from Encanto

Lyrics:

I would move the mountains

Make new trees and flowers grow

Someone please just let me know, where do I go?

I am waiting on a miracle, a miracle

I would heal what's broken

Show this family something new

Who I am inside so what do I do?

I'm sick of waiting on a miracle, so here I go

I am ready, come on I'm ready

I've been patient and steadfast and steady

Bless me now as you blessed us all those years ago

When you gave us a miracle

Am I too late for a miracle?

Alto 2: "Poor Unfortunate Souls" from the Little Mermaid

Lyrics:

Come on you poor unfortunate soul

Go ahead, make your choice!

I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day

It won't cost much, just your voice

You poor unfortunate soul

It's sad but true

If you want to cross the bridge my sweet

You've got to pay the toll

Take a gulp and take a breath

And go ahead and sign the scroll

Flotsam, Jetsam now I got her boys

The boss is on a roll

This poor unfortunate soul

Tenor: "Go the Distance" from Hercules

Lyrics:

I am on my way

I can go the distance

I don't care how far

Somehow I'll be strong

I know every mile

Will be worth my while

I would go most anywhere

To feel like I belong

Baritone/Bass: "Friend Like Me"

Lyrics:

Well Ali Baba had them 40 thieves

Scheherazade had a thousand tales

But master you're in luck 'cause up your sleeve

You got a brand of magic never fails

You got some power in your corner now

Some heavy ammunition in your camp

You got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and how?

See all you gotta do is rub that lamp, and I'll say

Mister Aladdin sir what will your pleasure be?

Let me take your order jot it down

You ain't never had a friend like me

Life if your restaurant and I'm your maitre de

Come on whisper what it is you want

You ain't never had a friend like me
