"No Matter What Happens"

   
(Not wanting to confuse Hadass or
herself anylonger, Yentl decides to end
her masquerade.)

Look at how she looks at me,
I can never look at her that way...
Full of all the feelings and the soft
Unspoken words that lovers say...
In all the words, in all the books
I wish there were a way to say that
What she's taught me
Isn't written anywhere
And I'm supposed to be the one
Who's wise...
One thing is certain,
I can never be what she
Expects of me...

I've wanted the shadows,
I don't anymore.
No matter what happens,
I won't anymore
I've run from the sunlight-
Afraid it saw too much.
The moon had the one light
I bathed in-
I walked in.
I held in my feelings
And closed every door.
No matter what happen.
I can't anymore.
There's someone who must hear
The words I've never spoken.
Tonight if he were here
My silence would be broken.
I need him to touch me-
To know the love that's in my heart-
The same heart that tells me
To see myself-
To free myself-
To be myself at last!
For too many mornings
The curtains were drawn.
It's time they were opened
To welcome the dawn.
A voice deep inside
Is getting stronger,
I can't keep it quiet any longer.
No matter what happens,
It can't be the same anymore...
I promise it won't be the same
Anymore!

"No Wonder (Reprise)"

   
(Yentl says good-bye to Hadass-each
of them wiser and better for having
known one another.)
She's mother, she's sister,
She's lover.
She's the wonder of wonders
No man can deny.
So why would he change her?
She's loving-she's tender-
She's woman-
So am I.

"A Piece Of Sky"

   
(Yentl reveals herself to Avigdor. Though
she is a woman ahead of her time, Avigdor
is a prisoner of his. So her journey must
continue... to a place where she hears
things are different.)

Tell me where
Where is it written
What is it I meant to be?
That I can't dare...
It all began the day I found..
That from my window I could only see
A piece of sky.
I stepped outside and looked around.
I never dreamed it was so wide
Or even half as high.
The time had come
(Papa, can you hear me?)
To try my wings
(Papa, are you near me?)
And even thought it seemed at any moment I could fall,
I felt the most,
(Papa, can you see me?)
Amazing things,
(Can you understand me?)
The things you can't imagine
if you've never flown at all.
Though it's safer to stay on the ground,
Sometimes where danger lies
There the sweetest of pleasures are found.
No matter where I go,
There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve,
But there will also be
More to question, yet more to believe..
Oh tell me where?
Where is the someone who will turn and look at me?
And want to share
My ev'ry sweet-imagined possibility?
The more I live - the more I learn.
The more I learn - the more I realize
The less I know.
Each step I take -
(Papa, I've a voice now!)Each page I turn -
(Papa, I've a choice now!)Each mile I travel only means
The more I have to go.
What's wrong with wanting more?
If you can fly - then soar!
With all there is - why settle for
just a piece of sky?
Papa, I can hear you...
Papa, I can see you...
Papa, I can feel you...
Papa, watch me fly!

"Emotion"

   
Face in the mirror looks the same every morning
I keep looking for a change
Sometimes I wonder am I standing still in time
Tired of doing everything the same old way
Tired of playing all the games that people play
This running round in circles gives me no peace of mind I need to find....
I need the emotion
I need to laugh
Sometimes I need to cry
I need the emotion
I need to love so hard
I don't know what to do
And baby , I need you...
Oooooooooooh

Sometimes I need a good old fashioned fight
It doesn't matter If I'm wrong or right
Please don't worry about it
You know how much I care
Sometimes I need to make love all day long
Sometimes I need to hold you in my arms
Let's drift away together
It doesn't matter where
As long as you're there cause I need...

I need the emotion
I need to laugh
Sometimes I need to cry
I need the emotion
I need to love so hard
I don't know what to do
And baby , I need you...
Oooooooooooh

Sometimes I need to tear the whole thing down
Sometimes I need to turn it all around
When I put it back together I'll be calling out to you
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

I need the emotion
I need to laugh sometimes I need to cry
Cry...

I need the emotion
I need to feel each passing day go by
By...
I need the emotion
I need to love so hard I don't know what to do
And baby I need you
I need the emotion
I need the emotion
Yes I do
I need the emotion
I need ya baby
I need, I need, I need emotion
Oh won't ya baby?
I need, I need, I need emotion
Feels so good...
I need, I need, I need emotion
Yes I do baby
Oooooohh
I need the emotion
I said emotion
I need, I need, I need emotion
I need, I need, I need emotion
I need, I need, I need emotion
Every day
I need the emotion
Emotion
Every hour
I need emotion baby

"Make No Mistake, He's Mine"
(feat. Kim Carnes)

   
[Kim:]
Don't call him up anymore
Cause I don't wanna hear your voice
I don' t wanna see your face
Answer his door
Make no mistake he's mine he's mine, he's mine
[Barbra:]
He only knows how I feel
I only know what he's like
When he needs me
Oh how he needs me
Deep in the night
Make no mistake
He's mine, He's mine, he's mine

[Kim:]
Don't get to close when you dance

[Together:]
Cause I don't wanna hear from my friends

[Barbra:]
You were out on the town
There in his arms ( there in his arms)
There in his arms ( there in his arms)
Don't include him in you dreams ( I wanna be in his dreams)
Cause I don't wanna close my eyes (my eyes)

[Together:]
I don't wanna know where he goes
Each might when he leaves ( leaves)
Make no mistake (make no mistake)
He's mine (he's mine) He's mine ( he's mine)
He is mine........

[Kim:]
Don't call him up anymore

[Barbra:]
Don't call him up anymore.....

"Time Machine"

   
I remember when my voice was never heard
Many listened but they never heard the words
In my mind I can travel back in time
Relive the memories that kept my faith alive
In every heart there's a time machine
If you believe in your memory
Trace every place you've been
You'll know what it means
In every heart beats a time machine
Where you can be what you want to be
Love is your memory
You can relive your life
Looking back on all the changes I have made
I may have stumbled but
I never lost my way
Now I feel all the world is on my side
When I remember there's
A special place inside
In every heart there's a time machine
If you believe in your memory
Trace every place you've been
You know what it means
In every heart beats a time machine
Where you can be what you want to be
Love is your memory
You can relive your life
Now that your eyes are open
You can explore each moment
For you are the only one
That know where your life should lead
In my mind I can travel back in time
Relive the memories that kept my faith alive
(In every heart there's a time machine
If you believe in your memories)
Trace every place you've been you'll know what it means
In every heart beats a time machine
Where you can be what you want to be
Love is your memory
You can relive your life
(In every heart there's a time machine
If you believe in your memories
Trace every place you've been you'll know what it means )
In every heart there's a time machine (in every heart beats a time machine)
Where you can be what you want to be ( where you can be what you want to be)
(Love is your memory)
In every heart...(heart) heart (heart)

"Best I Could"

   
I can't apologize for the way I feel
Cause I've always been honest with you
I've loved you the best I could
In the only way I knew
And If that's not enough I've got nothin' to say
And I'm not even sure that I would
Somedays it was bad and somedays good
But I've loved you the best I could
I need more... I need someone to hold me tonight
Someone there when I turn out the lights
Just to be here with me
I need more...
I need more than you somehow
I need more than your time will allow
I want you as my friend
Why can't you be that now?
You say you need me, then you'd be gone
The times I needed you
Then you'd hold me and say you're sorry
But what else could you do?
Yet I know you really loved me
So it's hard to let go like I should
Let's forget the bad
Remember the good
Cause you loved me the best you could
But I need more
I need someone to hold me tonight
Someone there when I turn out the light
Just to be here with me
I need more, I need more than you somehow
I need more than your time will allow
Remember the times that were good
We both loved the best we could

"Left In The Dark"

   
Where did she touch you,
How did if feel,
Why did you let it begin
What did she whisper and
What did it mean, and
Where do you think it will end?
How long did it last
Do you think it will stop
Did you get to try anything...new
How good was she - honestly
Where did you go and
Who made the very first move, who made the very first move,
Who made the very first move..
You don't have to sneak in the doorway
Just come on into the room
I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone
And I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you

There's been no reason to move
It's been as still as a tomb
I needed you oh so badly tonight
But I guess you had better things to do

I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of her love in your eyes
And you've still got her eyes on your mind

You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3
And whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
Whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me

I know that you love me
There's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body
As I see you undress ooooh
I just want to get at the truth
I know that you love me
There's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body
As I watch you undress
I just want to get at the truth

There are so many thing that I've just just gotta know
You tell me who! You tell me where! You tell me when!
But don't tell me now , I don't need any answers tonight
I just need some love so turn out the lights and
I'll be left in the dark again
I'll be left in the dark again
I'll be left in the dark again
Left in the dark again

I should have known that it was coming to this
But I must have been blind
I bet you still got a trace of her love in you eyes
And you still got her eyes on your mind

You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock
Now it's a quarter to 3
And whatever you got and whoever it was
I guess you couldn't get it from me
I guess you couldn't get it from me
But down in my soul, down in my soul
I know-
I know that you love me
There's no need to talk
I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof
And there are no lies on your body
As I watch you undress oooooh
I just want to get at the truth

And there are so many things
That I've just got to know
You tell me who! You tell me where!
You tell me when! But don't tell me now
I don't need any answers tonight....
I just need some love so turn out the lights and
I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love
So turn out the lights and I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love
So turn out the lights and I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love
So turn out the lights and I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love
So turn out the light and I'll be left in the dark again
I just need some love
So turn out the lights and I'll be left in the dark again......
Left in the dark again

"Heart Don't Change My Mind"

   
We said we'd try again
But trying's not enough
Actin' like strangers ain't no way of makin' love
It's never gonna work
It's time we stopped pretending
Time to turn the page
All stories need an ending
It makes no sense to stay
Living my life in yesterday
I'm leaving.......
I'm leaving ......
And I'm begging you.....
Heart don't change my mind
Oh heart be strong this time
And try to help me tell him good-bye
It'll only bring pain for us to stay
Oh, heart it's hard for you I know
Let me let him go....

Don't let me think about how good it was before
I know you'd try anything to keep me from that door
It's hard to leave him when you've loved him for so long now
How can I walk away if he's still holding on now
I found the strength today
Look at me I can finally say
It's over..
It's over.....
So I'm begging you

Heart don't change my mind
Oh heart be strong this time
And try to help me tell him good-bye
It'll only bring pain for us to stay
Oh, heart it's hard for you I know
Let me let him go....

It makes no sense to stay
Sad that it has to end this way
It's over, It's over....

Heart don't change my mind
Oh heart be strong this time
And try to help me tell him good-bye
It'll only bring pain for us to stay
Oh, heart it's hard for you I know
Let me let him go....

"When I Dream"

   
When I dream
In a world that has no time
In a world that pays no mind
To a heart such as mine
I can be
Out along the stars somewhere
All alone without a care
I can be anything
When I dream
By myself
All I want to do is find what
It's all about
I'm reaching out
Knowing that there must be more
I imagine when I dream
What I've never known
Or felt before

(when I dream)
I can turn reality
Into anything I see
All at once I can be
On the sky or on the ground
Of the earth but not earthbound
I can be anything
When I dream

Thinking back it seems I've
Spent my life
Sacrificing what I felt inside
Never thought I could have in my life
The dreams I have denied

When I dream
I believe there's someone there
Someone else with dreams to share
Someone willing to care
He could be
Out among the stars somewhere
Someone gentle, someone fair
He could be anything
When I dream

When I dream
There's no posibility
That I can't begin to see
There's no voice telling me
Not to be
Out among the stars somewhere
Feeling free, I'm free to dare
And to be anything
When I dream
For beyond the fantasy
And the harsh reality
Suddenly I can see
We could be
Out along the stars somewhere
All alone without a care
We could be anything
When I dream
Oooooooooohh
Dreamin'...dreamin'....dreamin'
Ooh c'mon and dream
