You fucking walked away!) So, cheers, here's to hoping (You opened up and gave me your heart) I never see your face again (At the finish line thinking you heard a start) So, cheers, here's to hoping (We opened up, it's always the same) I never see your face again (When we get too close, we run the other way!) And last, to hopelessly wishing I never met you.

Contents • • • • • • History [ ] By 1981, New York songwriter Gary Portnoy had already written songs for the likes of ('I’ll Never Get Enough') and ('Say Goodnight'). One night in the summer of that same year, his friend Judy Hart happened to be seated next to a Broadway producer at dinner.
Upon finding out that Hart was working for a music publisher, he asked her if she could recommend someone to compose the score for a new musical he was producing. On a whim, Hart, who had never written a song, approached Portnoy, who had never written for the theater. Together they set out to compose the words and music for the musical named. In the spring of 1982, Judy, now using her full married name of Judy Hart Angelo, sent a tape of Preppies' opening number 'People Like Us' to a friend in California, who then passed it on to television producers. Upon hearing it they each felt that with a lyric re-write 'People Like Us' would be the perfect theme song for their upcoming NBC sitcom, Cheers. Upon learning that 'People Like Us' was legally bound to the musical Preppies, the Charles Brothers asked Portnoy and Hart Angelo to take a shot at composing a theme specifically for Cheers. The song that resulted, 'My Kind of People', was somewhat of a reworked version of 'People Like Us'.
