It's fine
It's cool
You can say that we are nothing, but you know the truth and guess I'm
the fool
With their arms. I like an angel through the car sun
I don't want to call it off, but you don't want to call it
Only want to be the one that I call
I'm sure
When you wake up next to him
He's got a pair of petty hands
And nothing more than his wife
And when you think about me
All of those years ago
You're standing face to face with
I told you so
You know I hate to say
But I told you so
You know I hate to say
But I told you so
You know I hate to say

You know I hate to say
But I told you so
Well, good Lord
You have to stop the war
Just to stop the feeling
Good Lord
You have to stop the war
To stop the feeling
I have to stop the war

Special moments of this show
is watching a family member get emotional.
Your father, David, had tears in his eyes from the beginning
and a big smile on his face at the end.
It was a beautiful thing to watch.
Congratulations. I love you.
Keri.
I feel like you occupy your own lane
in this group of talent that we have.
From your look to your sound
to the way you kind of just pull us all in
along for the ride with you.
You feel everything you're singing
and that leaves us no choice
but to just feel it right along with you,
which is really cool.
You should be really proud, really happy with yourself.
I love you, Peggy.
I love you, too.
Thank you.
What I was most impressed with was
you worked the stage.
You worked it.
You gave us drama.
You gave us attitude.
That's the whole part about being on a stage now.
You're just not singing.
You're actually performing.
Thank you.
You've actually grown quite a bit.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Yeah.
From day one, even in your audition,
you're just comfortable being you.
You're comfortable with your own style of artistry.
The stage is kind of your playground
and keep it that way.
And totally the right vibe for Hawaii.
And great job.
I couldn't stop watching your dad either.
It got me.
Penny Samar, America.
Thank you very much.
Great work.
