Lyrics: Sometimes I wonder why I spend the lonely nights dreaming of a song, of a song, of a song
Comments: Based on this beloved tune from the Great American Songbook. Meant to be a nice gradual-mountain build-up and fade-out tag with climax on the first 'song' and classic chromatics going down to G in the 2nd line. Was originally in E but bumped it up for more range-universalness. Tenors have hanger and melody, which is an off-melody melody, really. Starts the main verse, then concludes in a manner similar to 'Mamselle' or 'Ebb Tide'. Choose your own tempo
