Pop choir song for Summer concert!

It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again
Damn who knew all the planes we flew
Good things we've been through
That I'll be standing right here
Talking to you about another path I
Know we loved to hit the road and laugh
But something told me that it wouldn't last
Had to switch up look at things different see the bigger picture
Those were the days hard work forever pays now I see you in a better place
How could we not talk about family when family's all that we got?
Everything I went through you were standing there by my side
And now you gonna be with me for the last ride
It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
when I see you again
First you both go out your way
And the vibe is feeling strong and what's
Small turn to a friendship, a friendship
Turn into a bond and that bond will never
Be broken and the love will never get lost
And when brotherhood come first then the line
Will never be crossed established it on our own
When that line had to be drawn and that line is what
We reach so remember me when I'm gone
How could we not talk about family when family's all that we got?
Everything I went through you were standing there by my side
And now you gonna be with me for the last ride
So let the light guide your way hold every memory
As you go and every road you take will always lead you home
It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again

Uptown funk backing track and lyrics: Pop choir

This hit, that ice cold
Michelle Pfeiffer, that white gold
This one for them hood girls
Them good girls straight masterpieces
Stylin', whilen, livin' it up in the city
Got Chucks on with Saint Laurent
Got kiss myself, I'm so pretty

Smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy

"Green Garden"
Take me outside, sit in the green garden
Nobody out there, but it's okay now,
bath in the sunlight, don't mind if rain falls,
take me outside, sit in the green garden,
Uh ah, uh ah uh,
Uh ah, uh ah uh

And I'll fly on the wings of a butterfly
high as a tree top and down again
putting my bag down, taking my shoes off
walk in the carpet of green velvet

Dance in my garden like we used to,
Uh ah, uh ah uh
Dance in my garden like we used to,
Uh ah, uh ah uh

Take me outside, sit in the green garden
nobody out there, but it's okay now,
bath in the sunlight, don't mind if rain falls,
take me out, seat in the green garden

I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go
I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go
Take me outside, take me outside,
take me outside, sit in the green garden.

And I'll fly on the wings of a butterfly
highs of tree top and down again
putting my bag down, taking my shoes off
walk in the carpet of green velvet

Dance in my garden like we used to,
the dance.
Dance in my garden like we used to..
Uh ah, uh ah uh

Take me outside, take me outside,
take me outside, sit in the green garden.

I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go
I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go
I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go
I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go
I'll go, wherever you go, wherever you take me, I'll go.
