The Songs of my Childhood

I may not know you, Alan Menken but you are a god to me. I have always been a lyrics person. 

The lyrics of each and every Disney song has captured my young girl's heart and has stayed with me forever. 

I can't believe that all these songs were written and composed by one person. Kudos! Your gift is amazing.
