Do You Recognize the Man in the Middle?

Dear Star-Struck Readers,

 

Were you following the Academy Awards this past weekend?

(I was!) It was so exciting to see the man in the middle

(pictured above with Buzz and Woody) at the awards...do you

know who he is?  I'll give you a few clues: he was born in

1943, sings, writes songs, composes music and plays the piano.

 

In fact, you DO know his songs from the Toy Story movies,

A Bug's Life, Babe: A Pig in the City, Monsters Inc., Cars,

and The Princess and the Frog. Plus a whole lot more songs

than these!

 

Give up?  His name is Randy Newman.  He won the Oscar at 

the 2011 Academy Awards for "We Belong Together" from

the hit movie Toy Story 3 in the BEST ORIGINAL SONG

category!  It's a very special song.  So special that I wanted

to share the words of the song with you and hope that you have

someone in your life that you feel this way about, too!

 

WE BELONG TOGETHER (lyrics)

Don't you turn your back on me,
Don't you walk away.
Don't you tell me that I don't care,
Cause' I do.

Don't you tell me, I'm not the one,
Don't you tell me, I ain't no fun,
Just tell me you love me, like I love you.
You know you do.

When we're together,
Gray skies are clearer.
And I'll share them, till where I'm less depressed.
And it's sincerely, from the bottom of my heart,
I just can't take it when we're apart.

We belong together,
We belong together.
Yes, we do,
You'll be mine, forever.

We belong together,
We belong together.
Oh, it's true,
It's gonna stay this way, forever,
Me and you.

If I could really talk to you,If I could find a way.
I'm not shy,
There's a whole lot I wanna say,
Oh of course there is!

Talk about friendship, and loyal things.
Talk about how much you mean to me.
And I'll promise, to always be by your side,
Whenever you need me.

The day I met you,
Was the luckiest day of my life.
And I bet you feel the same.
At least I hope you do.
So don't forget,
If the future should take you away,
That you'll aways be part of me.

We belong together,
We belong together.
Wait and see.
Gonna be this way, forever.

We belong together,
We belong together.
Honestly,
We'll go on this way, forever,
Me and you,
You and me.

 

Singingly Yours,

 Paige Turner!
