My school is writing a musical review to a storyline, and we are looking for a song that would fit to a girl who is sad and lonely. Possibly a guy would join her later in the song to make a duet. Does anyone have any Broadway song ideas?

Easy Terms from Blood Brothers

Time Heals Everything from Mack & Mabel

not Broadway but Bette Midler's song "Shiver Me Timbers"

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
