one of Yale’s undergraduate all-female a

cappella groups we are so excited and

honored to be performing for you guys

all today we hope you enjoyed our very

first song which was end of time

originally by Beyonce with Stephanie

today and up next we’re going to be

singing your song originally by Elton

it’s a little bit funny this feeling

inside I’m not one of those who can

easily hide I know it’s not much but

it’s the best I can do my people in song

Garvey go their true

[Music]

if I was a sculptor but then again no a

man who makes potions for the travelling

show I know it’s not much but it’s the

best I can do my gift is my song and

this one’s for you and you can tell

everybody this is your song it may be

quite simple but you know that it’s done

I hope you don’t mind I hope you don’t

mind that I put down in words how

wonderful life is while you’re in the

world i sat on the roof

and kicked off the moths

a few of these verses well they’ve got

me quite cross the sun’s been quite kind

while I wrote this song it’s people like

you that keep it turned on and you can

tell everybody this is your song it may

be quite simple but now that it’s done I

hope you don’t mind I hope you don’t

mind that I put down in words how

wonderful life is while you’re in the

world

I hope you don’t mind I hope you don’t

mind that I put down in words how

wonderful life is while you’re in the

world

[Applause]

we’re a thousand miles from comfort we

have traveled land and sea but as long

as I am with you there’s no place I’d

rather be I could wait forever exalted

in the scene as long as you were with me

my heart continues to be

with every step we take Kyoto to the bay

strolling so casually we’re different

and the same gave you another name

switch up the batteries if you gave me a

chance I would take it it’s a shot in

the dark but I’ll make it

no heart you can’t shake me when I am

with you there’s no place I’d rather be

no place we staked out on a mission to

find her inner peace make it everlasting

so nothing’s incomplete it’s easy being

with you sacred simplicity as long as

we’re together there’s no place I’d

rather be with every step we take Kyoto

to the bay strolling so casually we’re

different and the same gave you another

name switch of the batteries if you gave

me a chance I would take it it’s a shot

in the dark but I’ll make it know it’s

all of your heart you can’t shake me

when I am with you there’s no place I’d

rather

no no no no place I’d rather be no no no

no place I’d rather be

no no no now please mother babe when I

am with you there’s no place I’d rather

yeah if you gave me a chance I would

take it it’s a shot in the dark but I’ll

make it know with all of your heart you

can’t shake me when I am with you

there’s no place I’d rather be no place

I’d rather be no no no no no place

better be when I am with you there’s no

[Applause]

to be singing safe and sound with Alex

please enjoy I remember tears streaming

down your face when you said and never

let you go when all those shadows almost

killed you love

[Music]

I remember you said don’t leave me here

all alone but all it’s dead you got his

past nice just close your eyes the Sun

is going down you’ll be alright no one

can hurt you now come morning light you

[Music]

don’t you dare look out your window

darling everything’s on fire the war

outside our Door keeps raging on hold on

to this lullaby even when the music’s

gone gone just close your eyes the Sun

is going down you’ll be alright no one

can hurt you now come morning light you

[Music]

Oh No

oh just close your eyes you’ll be

alright come morning light you and I’ll

be safe and sound so we are coming to

our last song of the set today which is

going to be shake it out which really

originally by Florence and the Machine

slid on today by Maddy before we finish

up though I just wanted to give you guys

a quick plug if you like what you heard

today we are on lots of forms of social

media Facebook Instagram as well as

YouTube where you can listen to more of

our music and if you really liked what

you heard today we actually have an

album out right now on Spotify and

iTunes and we’re producing a new one

that will be coming out this summer so

stay tuned for that as well thank you

guys so much please enjoy our last song

regrets collect like old friends here to

relive your darkest moments I can see no

way I can see no way and all of the

goals come out to play and every demon

wants his pound of flesh but I like to

keep some things to myself I like to

keep my shoes strong it’s always darkest

before the dawn and I’ve been a fool and

I’ve been blind I can never leave the

past behind I can see no way I can see

no way I’m always dragging Nighthorse

alone all of these questions such a

mournful sound tonight I’m gonna bury

that horse in the ground I like to keep

my issues strong it’s always darkest

before the shake it out check it out

check it out check it out check it out

check it out check it out check it out

whoa whoa and it’s hard to dance with

and I am done with my a graceless part

tonight I’m gonna cut it out and then

restart I like to keep my issues drawn

oh and it’s hard to dance with a devil

on your back so shake em off whoa

and I’m damned if I do and I’m damned if

I don’t

here’s the drinks in the dark at the end

of my road and then I’m ready to suffer

and I’m ready to oh it’s a shot in the

dark and right in my throat cause

looking for heaven for the devil in me

and it’s hard to dance with the devil on

we are young

so let’s set the world on fire we can

tonight and it’s hard to attend hands

[Applause] [Music]
