I opened in Funny Girl in March 1963 and fell in love with the composer of that show, Jule Styne
He was brilliant
He was funny
And he was very kind to me
Anyway, his wife Maggie Styne...
Maggie where are you? (Here)
Wow
Hi Maggie, we're glad you could make it here
...And she is sitting with Phyllis Newman who won the Tony over me
For Subways Are for Sleeping I did Miss Mermelstein
And Phyllis' husband was the wonderful lyricist Adolph Green
With Betty Comden wrote this nеxt song with Jule for their Broadway Show Do Re Mi
I lovе the song
Make someone happy
Make just one someone happy
Make just one heart the heart you sing to
One smile that cheers you
One face that lights when it nears you
One man you're everything to
Fame, if you win it
Comes and goes in a minute
Where's the real stuff in life to cling to?
Love is the answer
Someone to love is the answer
Once you've found him
Build your world around him
And make someone happy
Make just one someone happy
And you will be happy too
I titled my new album Love is the answer
Because one of the nice things about getting older
Is that you not only learn to give love
But you learn to receive it and then you can give back even more
I'm not only talking about romantic love but love between all kinds of people
Love is the answer
Someone to love is the answer
Once you found him
Build your world around him
And make someone happy
Make just one someone happy
And you will be happy too
Oh, you will be so happy too
I promise, look at you all, look at that
Thank you
Thank you, thank you
