Now, to those of you in our audienceto those of you in our audience who cannot hear this evening you will be grateful for your hearing difficulties because I am going to sing. And to those of you who have no hearing problems, my profound apologies. On a personal note, I would like to dedicate this song to my son, Cole. [singing] Close your eyes / Have no fear / The monster's gone / He's on the run and your daddy's here / Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful / Beautiful boy / Before you go to sleepBeautiful boy / Before you go to sleep / Say a little prayer / Every day in every way / It's getting better and better / Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful / Beautiful boy / Over the ocean / Sailing away / I can hardly wait / To see you come of ageI can hardly wait / To see you come of age / But I guess we both just have to be patient / 'Cause it's a long way to go / A hard road to hoe / Yes, it's a long way to go / But in the meantime / Before you cross the street / Please take my hand / Life is what happens to you / While you're busy making other plans / Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful / Beautiful boy / Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful / Beautiful Cole
