Drew Seeley - Her Voice

27 September 2009
Most people haven't heard of Drew Seeley. He's not exactly mainstream. But he co-wrote a lot of the songs from the original High School Musical and his voice was actually blended with Zac Efron's voice for the first movie. He has done a lot of stuff with Disney, including the HSM tour. Anyway, I just found out that he is apparently starring as Prince Eric on the Broadway version of The Little Mermaid, and this is a new song written by Alan Menken and Glenn Slater for Broadway. This version isn't quite the Broadway version, as it has been jazzed up, or "pop-ified" or whatever you want to call it. But I think it's kind of cool that in the Broadway version, Prince Eric actually gets a song. Here you go!

--I also just found a link to the real Broadway version that isn't jazzed up, so below the Drew Seeley version is the Broadway version as well! The lyrics are the Broadway lyrics.

Her Voice
Where did she go?
Where can she be?
When will she come again
Calling to me?
Calling to me...
Calling to me...

Somewhere there’s a girl
Who’s like the shimmer of the wind upon the water
Somewhere there’s a girl
Who’s like the glimmer of the sunlight on the sea
Somewhere there’s a girl
Who’s like a swell of endless music
Somewhere she is singing
And her song is meant for me

And her voice
It’s sweet as angels sighing
And her voice
It’s warm as summer sky
And that sound
It haunts my dreams
And spins me ‘round
Until it seems
I’m flying...
Her voice

I can sense her laughter
In the ripple of the waves against the shoreline
I can see her smiling
In the moonlight as it settles on the sand
I can feel her waiting
Just beyond the pale horizon
Singing out a melody too lovely to withstand

And her voice
It’s there as dusk is falling
And her voice
It’s there as dawn steals by
Pure and bright, it’s always near
All day, all night
And still I hear it calling...
Her voice

Strange as a dream...
Real as the sea...
If you can hear me now
Come set me free...
Come set me free!
