I'm sure that there have been threads like this in the past, but I thought it would be fun to make a new one.

What are your favorite lyrics written for Broadway? Or what in your opinion are the best lyrics writtn for Broadway?

Oh, boy...expect to be baraged by a series of "there's a post for this already" and links to check the threads out...

Anyways, I'm a good sport, so I'll contribute something:
"Some Enchanted Evening"...South Pacific
"There's is nothing Like a Dame"...South Pacific
"All I Ask of You"...Phantom
"The Music of the Night"...Phantom
"Diamonds"...Diamonds
"Loving You Keeps me ALive"...Dracula
"Memory"...Cats
"On the Street Where You Live"...My Fair Lady
...to name a few

"if that's what it is, then that's what it is
At least until Disney can rewrite it"

I have never seen Shrek but this cracked me up!
