[B] _ _ [F] _ [Gb] _ [Bb] _ [Eb] What would we [Cm] do without [Eb] you?
[Cm] [Eb] How would we ever [F] get through?
[Fm] _ [Bb] I've [Cm] been tumbling for [F] hours,
Drinking all the power,
[Bb] And I have no [Eb] clue,
To reach [Cm] yesterday's you.
_ [Eb] [C] It's been absurd,
[F] [Fm] Though it's so [Abm] beautiful,

I knew it'd be more happy,
By what I [F] once knew.
How would [Eb] we ever [G] get through?

nothing.
[G] Sleep at the [Bm] gate,
It's your home,

[G] I've tried,
Staring and [Bm] waiting,
Standing at your [Em] door.

_ _ And I think the roof has just come off the Albert Hall.
The crowd on their feet
for the talent on the stage tonight.
_ _ _ During the second half of tonight's prom,
we heard excerpts from Sweeney Todd,
from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum,
to Paralegal Rolling Along,
Sunday in the Park with George and Company.
_ _ _ Conductor David Charles Bell taking his bow.
Now what a job he's done tonight.
He brought this concert together,
he came up with the idea,
he organized the orchestration. _ _
A phenomenal achievement.
_ _ _ _ And now the entire cast _ acknowledging
Sondheim, who's coming onto the stage now.
_ _ Happy birthday, Brogan. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ He told me in the interval how much
the people on this stage meant to him.
The soloists, of course, _ _
Julian Arland and Maria Friedman,
Simon Wilson-Fielding, Judy Dent,
Bryn Terfel, Caroline O'Connor, Daniel Evans.
All of them know and love Stephen Sondheim.
And it meant the world to him and to them,
that tonight took place. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
The Sondheim Ensemble, of course,
some very big name from the West End
in that group of hand-picked performers.
And some new talent too,
through the BBC Performing Arts Fund.
What an experience for them. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
So as the applause continues,
the cheers and the claps
for this wonderful man,
the greatest living composer and lyricist.
_ _ It's time for us to say
that it's the end of tonight's prom,
celebrating Stephen Sondheim's 80th birthday. _
_ _ Next week we'll be continuing
our celebrations of Mahler's 150th anniversary
BBC4's coverage.
You can hear Mahler's Third Symphony
with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra
conducted by Donald Runnickels.
That's next Thursday.
Actually, I'll be back here on BBC2
for a performance of Mahler's Fifth Symphony
by the remarkable world orchestra piece
conducted by Valérie Gadier.
I don't want to go, but we have to.
From me, Katie Derham,
and all of us here at the Royal Albert Hall
on this memorable
