"In the Back of My Mind"

I figured out some of the oboe part in "In the Back of My Mind" to-night (so, with the exception of "Bull Session with 'Big Daddy,'" I now know at least a bit of every song on Today!), and while doing so, I noticed that "ev'rything" in the line "I'm blessed with ev'rything" is sung with a melisma (A G G D, I think), musically giving a sense of entirety.
