Putting It Together (From "Sunday In the Park With George") - Julie Andrews

Look, I've spent a lot of time working on this Look, no one's gonna buy it -- no one. Nobody in middle america, anyway. That's for sure. Producer 3: he's right! Sweetheart, it's just not commercial! What is commercial? It's not what's selling nowadays I mean - personally, I love it, but Be nice, girl! Nobody's into this kind of material You have to pay a price, girl! This album needs a hit single we can push They like to give advice, girl! The whole idea's too risky Don't think about it twice, girl! The audience won't understand this kind of thing! It's time to get to work! I disagree! why don't you wait until you hear it? This is like your old stuff! Art isn't easy You've got to appeal to the kids Even when you're hot Why would you want to make an album like this anyway? Advancing art is easy I think we ought to talk seriously about this Financing it is not! Why take chances? A vision's just a vision if it's only in your head! Nobody respects your artistic integrity more than I do, but If no one gets to hear it, it's as good as dead! You have to think about you career! It has to come to life! Bit by bit, putting it together Piece by piece, only way to make a work of art Every moment makes a contribution Every little detail plays a part Having just a vision's no solution Everything depends on execution Putting it together, that's what counts! Ounce by ounce, putting in together Small amounts, adding up to make a work of art First of all you need a good foundation Otherwise it's risky from the start Takes a little cocktail conversation But without the proper preparation Having just a vision's no solution Everything depends on execution The art of making art Is putting it together, bit by bit Do we really need all these musicians? Link by link, making the connections, yes we do! Drink by drink, taking every comment as it comes Learning how to play the politician Like you play piano, bass and drums Otherwise you'll find your composition Isn't gonna get much exhibition Art isn't easy Every minor detail is a major decision Have to keep things in scale Have to hold to your vision Why don't we talk about this over dinner, darling? What's a little cocktail conversation If it gets the funds for your foundation Every time I start to feel defensive I remember vinyl is expensive! Would you agree to do an interview? Maybe one! Dot by dot, building up the image Shot by shot, keeping at a distance doesn't pay Still if you remember your objective Not give all your privacy away A little bit of hype can be effective As long as you can keep it in perspective Even when you get some recognition Everything you do you still audition Art isn't easy Overnight you're a trend You're the right combination Then the trend's at an end You're suddenly last year's sensation! All they ever want is repetition All they really like is what they know Gotta keep a link with your tradition Gotta learn to trust your intuition While you re-establish your position So that you can be on exhibit... So that your work can be on exhibition! Be new, girl! They tell you 'till they're blue, girl! You're new, or else you're through, girl! And even if it's true, girl You do what you can do! Bit by bit, putting it together Piece by piece, working on the vision night and day All it takes is time and perseverance With a little luck along the way Putting in a personal appearance Gathering supporters and adherents... Well, she's an original! Was! Mapping out the songs but in addition Harmonizing each negotiation Balancing the part that's all musicians With the part that's strictly presentation Balancing the money with the mission 'Till you have the perfect orchestration Even if you do have the suspicion That it's taking all your concentration The art of making art Is putting it together, bit by bit Beat by beat, part by part Sheet by sheet, chart by chart track by track, bit by bit Reel by reel, pout by pout Stack by stack, snit by snit Meal by meal, shout by shout Deal by deal, spat by spat Shpiel by shpiel, doubt by doubt And that... is the state of the art!

I'll always see your face The corner of your smile And all the little things that no one will ever know Like it was yesterday Won't ever fade away Goodbye is just a word that I will never say You will never be forgotten A million days could pass us by But what is time but just a dream Oh, I still feel you here with me You're more than just a memory Oh, you will never be forgotten I can't hold your hand Or look into your eyes And when I talk to you It just echoes in my mind But if hearts are made of dust And if we fell from the stars I look up tonight and know just where you are You will never be forgotten A million days could pass us by But what is time but just a dream Oh, I still feel you here with me You're more than just a memory Oh, you will never be forgotten And the world just keeps on going It has no way of knowing That you're gone You will never be forgotten A million days could pass us by But what is time but just a dream Oh, I still feel you here with me You're more than just a memory Oh, you will never be forgotten Forgotten

Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O'er the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bob-tail ring Making spirits bright Oh what fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O'er the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bob-tail ring Making spirits bright Oh what fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight Jingle bells, jingle-jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle-jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle-jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh

Here I remind myself what You said over me Here I remind my soul who You are You said You won't relent Won't let go, won't forget Every promise You have whispered to my heart As I wait, as I wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint Rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar This desert holds a song I will sing, on and on You're a river when the ground I walk is dry And You will set the crooked straight Clear my path, make a way You will lead me from the valley to the heights As I wait (as I wait) As I wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint Rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar Creator, keeper Lifebreather Your name is greater than anything I've faced Sustainer, saviour Stronghold breaker Your name is greater than anything I've faced As I wait, as I wait on You I will wait, God, I will wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint I'll rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar To soar I will soar
