I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces All day through
In that small cafe,
The park across the way,
The children's carousel,
The chestnut tree,
A wishing well

Sinatra sang it and Bing Crosby, but I don't know who wrote it. I sang it in choir in high school.

Jurassic Park is frightening in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild

Sally: "I'll Be Seeing You" is by Sammy Fain (music) & Irving Kahal (lyrics), and dates from 1938.

Here's one by Tom Lehrer:

If someday you're free
Why don't you come with me
And we'll poison the pigeons in the park?
And maybe we'll do in
A squirrel or two when
We poison the pigeons in the park.
When they see us coming
The birdies all try and hide
But they still go for peanuts
When coated with cyanide...
My pulse will be quickenin'
With each drop of strychnine
We use on the pigeons in the park!

McArthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down

Saturday, in the park;
I think it was the 4th of July.
