Let's try out your understanding of some terms relating to melody by listening to this familiar musical theater song. Here's the text to help you follow along: Tonight, tonight, it all began tonight. I saw you and the world went away. Tonight, tonight, there's only you tonight - what you are, what you do, what you say. Today, all day I had the feeling a miracle would happen. I know now I was right. For here you are and what was just a world is a star, tonight! On which two words at cadences do the phrases seem most incomplete, where you know there is more to come

Answer:

Star

Night

Step-by-step explanation:

Cadence is a term used in music to describe a situation in which a succession of musical notes occurs. This succession is capable of forming well-defined melodic patterns, before being suspended in musical notes of less strong, but weak and less defined, promoting the sensation of something that is in decay.
