To speak of poems, and prayers, and promises and things that we belive in. How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care How long it  x27;s been since yesterday What about tomorrow What about our dreams And long memories we shared. John Denver In this time we live in, it is rare to experience love. It is even rarer to know love from a stranger. For love is one of those curious gifts that is not only difficult to give, no matter how much we would like to, but also difficult to receive, no matter how much we feel it. By allowing us to receive love, a true friend of the Willamette community has shown us how to give it; because of this, Freshman Glee is dedicated to the late T. C.  quot;Hawk quot; Hawkins, with the hope that his never-ceasing devotion to people will become a sign of our time.

         quot;SLOW DOWN quot; Words and Music by Andrew J. Gregg and Thomas R. Spivey Dawn Sunlight Morning Wake-up  Put your feet on the floor, try to find the bathroom door Brush your teeth; wash your face, now you  x27;ve joined the human race. Get your car, start to drive, and by now you  x27;re just alive. Get to work; use your head, find a headache there instead    You  x27;ve got to SLOW DOWN, SLOW DOWN. Take a good look in the world we  x27;re in, Crime, noise and pollution. People in a hurry, rushing around in turmoil and confusion. Oh, there are better things to do with life than Waste it never living. So take some time, enjoy yourself, Be thoughtful and forgiving    And love   love   love   love   . Interlude (vocal canon) Dawn Sunlight Morning Wake-up  Meet each day with a smile, It  x27;s not too much but by and by A little at a time You can change the world if you try. So take some time Enjoy yourself Stand up and sing a song  And maybe someone else will sing along. SLOW DOWN, SLOW DOWN. COMPOSER  x27;S NOTES: When approaching a thematic work, such as a Glee song, the composer must weave the thread of his own ideas through the pattern of the chosen theme. Whereas the Class of 1978 presented a darker view of the future with the WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? theme as Freshmen in 1975, tonight we ride the prevailing tide of optimism. We face our obstacles, smile, and offer you the Senior Class presentation with a spirit that can only be found at Willamette  x27;s Freshman Glee. Andrew J. Gregg, Class of 1978 
         quot;DON  x27;T LOOK BACK quot; Words and Music by David Moran It  x27;s very nice to have you back again. It shows me that our wait  x27;s not been in vain. We  x27;ve had our fair share of hard times, looking for a place to go, a way to follow. CHORUS No, no, no, no, don  x27;t look back. No, no, no, no, don  x27;t look back. Just think of all the fun we  x27;ll have, the joys we  x27;ve yet to find. Let  x27;s live for the future, and leave our pasts far behind. Now we  x27;ve had a chance to clear our heads, To think with objectivity instead. But there  x27;s a danger:    If we let ourselves dwell on what  x27;s been done, We  x27;ll lose what  x27;s just been won. CHORUS INTERLUDE Some people feel they have to search for omens Which testify to all life  x27;s changing trends. But no one need look further than his own self. Each heart and soul bears witness To the spirit that supports us To the end. If we can learn to live from day to day, We  x27;ll see how much our worries melt away. Be optimistic. Sure, we  x27;ll make mistakes, but nothing we can  x27;t remedy. The world is ours, you see. CHORUS 
         quot;I CAN  x27;T BELIEVE WHAT  x27;S HAPPENING TO ME  quot; Music by Michael G. O  x27;Brien Words by Patricia Obradovich and Michael G. O  x27;Brien Smile one for me and chase away my sorrow Smile one for me and for love. Wonder what have we made of ourselves, what have we done Living off dreams of our past searching for the sun We must forget them for now Finding a new sign, making our own mark in time. We, we are the signs of the times Facing the world, making our own minds Time will fly, it waits for no one So don  x27;t let it pass you by In this crazy circle I continue to try still I can  x27;t believe what  x27;s happening to me Just look around me and see The pressure point may be near Even so I  x27;m still here We  x27;re all still here. Steel enclosures, freak exposures Tax returns, will we all get burned Airlines striking, prices hiking Children crying and my plants are dying Oil spills and no more coffee refills Final test day, soon to be Blue Monday Weekday Friday  x27;s just around the bend Come full circle to you once again We are the signs of the times We are what makes the changes 
         quot;HERE WE ARE quot; Words and Music by Bill Berry We have come into your arms searching for a place, We  x27;ve got a lot of learning to do We count on your experience to lend a guiding hand So we lift up our minds to you It  x27;s impossible to explain our feelings Cuz  x27; we  x27;re not sure they exist at all Maybe if we open up and reach out for a friend You  x27;ll see us and you  x27;ll answer our call But we  x27;ve lived and loved and we  x27;ve given you our time But we  x27;ve known it  x27;s only for tradition We  x27;ve always been young but someday we  x27;ll grow old We  x27;ve got the wisdom from all the things that we  x27;ve been told Stick together through these hard times For these are the signs of the time Being part of a great thing is so wild and wonderful That we sometimes forget to come down But we  x27;ve all learned so much nothing  x27;s Lost and all is gained for someday we will wear the crown And we  x27;ve lived and loved and we  x27;ve given you our time, But we  x27;ve known it  x27;s only for tradition We  x27;ve always been young, but someday we  x27;ll grow old We  x27;ve got the wisdom from all the things that we  x27;ve been told Stick together through these hard times For these are the signs of the time.
