The song performed by Stephanie, Archie and Murray is "Always" and was composed by Irving Berlin in 1925.
Everything went wrong And the whole day long I'd feel so blue For the longest while I'd forget to smile Then I met you Now that my blue days have passed Now that I've found you at last -
I'll be loving you Always With a love that's true Always When the things you've planned Need a helping hand I will understand Always
Always
Days may not be fair Always That's when I'll be there Always Not for just an hour Not for just a day Not for just a year But Always.
Everything went wrong And the whole day long I'd feel so blue For the longest while I'd forget to smile Then I met you Now that my blue days have passed Now that I've found you at last -
I'll be loving you Always With a love that's true Always When the things you've planned Need a helping hand I will understand Always
Always
Days may not be fair Always That's when I'll be there Always Not for just an hour Not for just a day Not for just a year But Always.
After Stephanie asks Murray to join her for Father and Daughter night at school we see him playing a short piano solo in the bar. When he finishes, Mr. Van Ranseleer quotes William Congreve by saying "Music has charms to soothe a savage beast." During an All in the Family episode, "Mike's Friend," Mike Stivic (Rob Reiner) uses this same comment when he corrects Gloria for saying "Music has charms to soothe a savage beast" (even though Mike's friend had corrected him by stating the actual quote being "breast").
