Way Out West | Dreams to Dream | The Girl You Left Behind | Rawhide | Dreams to Dream (Credits)

Way Out West

OPERA MOUSE:
Life in New York City
Is full of dread and fuss
Our dreams are waiting way out west
There's room for all of us

OLD MOUSE:
The streets are paved with nuggets
All of the purest gold
And soon we'll all be millionaires

MALE MOUSE:
Boy, have I been told

NEW YORKER MOUSE:
No garbage and no landlords
Fouling up the air

OPERA MOUSE:
No crooks or politicians
To strip our cupboards bare

EDUCATED MOUSE:
We'll ride the roaring rivers
Turn wilderness to towns
Our dreams will take us up and up
And never let us down, oh

ALL:
Way out west
There's room for our dreaming
There's wide open spaces to see
Way out west
The sun's always beaming
We'll be everything we can be

MOUSE WITH ACCENT:
The nights are filled with dancing
Lasting till the day
Days are filled with singing
Work is just like play

GOOFY MOUSE:
We'll banjo!

GOOFY MOUSE 2:
We'll fiddle!

GOOFY MOUSE 3:
We'll guitar!

DEEP VOICED MOUSE:
We'll spoon!

ALL:
And everywhere we go, we're gonna play this rousing tune!

'Cause way out west
We'll build our new nation
We'll grow all the way to the sky
Way out west
There's all of creation
We're new and we'll never say die

Way out west
We'll build our new nation
We'll grow all the way to the sky
Way out west
There's all of creation
We're new and we'll never say die

Dreams to Dream

Dreams to dream
In the dark of the night
When the world goes wrong
I can still make it right
I can see so far in my dreams
I'll follow my dreams
Until they come true

Come with me
You will see what I mean
There's a world inside
No one else ever sees
You will go so far in my dreams
Somewhere in my dreams
Your dreams will come true

There is a star
Waiting to guide us
Shining inside us
When we close our eyes

Don't let go
If you stay close to me
In my dreams tonight
You will see what I see
Dreams to dream
As near as can be
Inside you and me
They always come true

The Girl You Left Behind

TANYA:
Do you ever miss the girl you left behind?

Is the girl you left behind out there tonight romancin'?
Makin' eyes at someone else and singin', is she dancin'?
Only the girl you left behind is real when you're sleepin'
Puts the teardrops in your eyes from secrets she is keepin'
Happy just playin' a tune and dance the whole night away
Hope the girl you left behind will be there for you someday
Lonely is the wind that blows, you know you'll always miss her
Lonely is a lover's heart, if only you could
Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her

All the girls you left behind could fill up California
Please don't leave them too darn long, I think I oughtta warn ya
Absence makes the heart go cold and makes a heart to wander
If you stay there by their sides, you'll feel their hearts grow fonder

CATS:
Hope you see her someday
Hope I find my way
Back to the girl I left behind

TANYA & (CATS):
So tell me you will never roam
(We swear we won't go roaming)
You'll be by your fireside
(We'll all be home sweet home and kiss her, kiss her, kiss her)

TANYA:
So where's the girl you left behind?

CATS:
She's waitin' for her sister
We won't stop until we're home we'll hug and hug and kiss her
I'll find the girl
I'll find the girl
I'll find the girl
I'll find the girl

ALL:
You'll (I'll) find the girl
You'll (I'll) find the girl you (I) left behind
Tonight! Tonight! Tonight!
That's right
Alright!

Dreams to Dream (Credits)

I lose my way, no one cares
The words I say, no one hears
My life it seems
Is a world of dreams

Deep in the night
You'll find me
Dream and you might
Behind me stay
If you will stay
We'll dream the night away

Dreams to dream
In the dark of the night
When the world goes wrong
I can still make it right
I can see so far in my dreams
I'll follow my dreams
Until they come true

There is a star
Waiting to guide us
Shining inside us
When we close our eyes

Come with me
You will see what I mean
There's a world inside
No one else ever sees
You will go so far in my dreams
Somewhere in my dreams
Your dreams will come true

Don't let go
If you stay close to me
In my dreams tonight
You will see what I see
Dreams to dream
As near as can be
Inside you and me
They always come true

Inside you and me
They always come true
