Authentic Sound Effects-Wind Chimes
Joshua Rifkin-I'll Be Back (by Lennon/McCartney)

"You know
If you break my heart, I'll go
But I'll be back again

'Cause I
Told you once before goodbye
But I came back again

I love you so
Yes I'm the one who needs you
I'm the one who wants you
Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh You
Could find better things to do
Than to break my heart again

This time
I will try to show that I'm
Not trying to pretend"
