Текст песни Marvin Hamlisch intro - Barbra Streisand

So while I was putting a show together
It became clear to me that
This evening will be a celebration of music that I love
Written by people that I love
And one of those people was my dear friend Marvin Hamlisch
Most of you know that we lost Marvin a couple of months ago
And the night before we had the news, I had tried to reach him
To ah, tell him something that I was very excited about
And that was the, my current musical director Wonderful Bulbous
Suggested that we use Marvin original orchestration from the movies of where we were
And I wanted to tell Marvin that myself
So I, I wrote myself a note to call him
And unfortunately I never got to ah, you know tell him that
And a note is still ah, sitting on my table
Can't seem to through it away, anyway
If you believe in the spirit livin' on which I hope is true
Then maybe he is hearing me now! (Yes he is)
So this is for you Marvin
