BUT THE WORLD GOES ‘ROUND
By
Barry Manilow
***************
Sometimes you’re happy
And sometimes you’re sad
But the world goes round
And sometimes you lose
Every nickel you had
But the world goes round
Sometimes you’re dreams get broken in pieces
But that doesn’t matter at all
Take it from me, there’s still going to be
A summer, a winter, a spring and a fall
And sometimes a friend starts treating you bad
But the world goes round
And sometimes your heart breaks
With a deafing sound
Somebody loses, and somebody wins
And one day it’s kicks
And it’s kicks in the shins
But the plant spins
And world goes round and round
Sometimes you’re happy and sometimes your sad
But the world goes round
And sometimes you lose
Every nickel you had
But the world goes round
Sometimes your dreams get broken in pieces
But that shouldn’t altar a thing
Take it from me, there’s till going to be
A summer, a winter, a fall and a spring
And sometimes a friend starts treating you bad
But the world goes round
And sometimes your heart breaks
With a deafing sound
Somebody loses, and somebody wins
And one day it’s kicks then it’s kicks in the shins
But the planet spins
And the world goes round
And round and round and round and round
The world goes round
And round
And round
And round
THE TWELFTH OF NEVER
***************
You ask me how much I need you, must I explain?
I need you, oh my darling, like roses need rain
You ask how long I’ll love you,
I’ll tell you true Until the Twelfth of Never,
I’ll still be loving you
Hold me close, never let me go
Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow
I’ll love you ’til the bluebells forget to bloom
I’ll love you ’til the clover has lost its perfume
I’ll love you ’til the poets run out of rhyme
Until the Twelfth of Never and that’s a long, long time
Until the Twelfth of Never and that’s a long, long time
SAY THE WORDS
***************
If you gotta’ go, then I’ll make out all right
If you wanna to know,I knew it wasn’t right
All the time
Well make out some how, just like we did before
Just don’t turn around ,when you walk out the door
Just one time
Say the words
Say the words I love
Fell the time ,till the time you can stay
Say the words
Say the words I love
Fell the time ,till the time you can stay
Nothing left to do,its done there is no more
Nothing left to say, we’ve said it all before
Yes I know
Wouldn’t trade away a day of what we had
I know you shouldn’t stay but babe it wasn’t bad
Before you go
Say the words
Say the words I love
Fill the time,till the time you can stay
Say the words
Say the words I love
Fill the time ,till the time you can stay
O TANNENBAUM

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blatter!
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blatter!
Du grunst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit,
Nein, auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blatter!
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
Wie oft hat nicht zur Weihnachtszeit
Ein Baum von dir mich hoch erfreut!
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
O Tannembaum, O Tannenbaum
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
YOU’VE LOST THAT LOVIN’ FEELING
***************
You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips.
And there’s no tenderness like before in your fingertips.
You’re trying hard not to show it, (baby).
But baby, baby I know it…
You’ve lost that lovin’ feeling,
Whoa, that lovin’ feeling,
You’ve lost that lovin’ feeling,
Now it’s gone…gone…gone…wooooooh.
Now there’s no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you.
And now your’re starting to critisize little things I do.
It makes me just feel like crying, (baby).
‘Cause baby, something in you is dying.
You lost that lovin’ feeling,
Whoa, that lovin’ feeling,
You’ve lost that lovin’ feeling,
Now it’s gone…gone…gone…woooooah
Baby, baby, I get down on my knees for you.
If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah.
We had a love…a love…a love you don’t find everyday.
So don’t…don’t…don’t…don’t let it slip away.
Baby (baby), baby (baby),
I beg of you please…please,
I need your love (I need your love),
I need your love (I need your love),
So bring it on back (So bring it on back),
Bring it on back (so bring it on back).
Bring back that lovin’ feeling,
Whoa, that lovin’ feeling
Bring back that lovin’ feeling,
‘Cause it’s gone…gone…gone,
And I can’t go on,
Noooo…
Bring back that lovin’ feeling,
Whoa, that lovin’ feeling
Bring back that lovin’ feeling,
‘Cause it’s gone…gone…
WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE
***************
Autumn days
Lying on a bed of leaves
Watching clouds up through the trees
You said our love was more than time
It’s colder now, the trees are bare and the nights are long
Can’t get warm since you’ve been gone
I can’t stop singing sad songs
Where do I go from here
Tell me where do I go from here
You say you’d take me through the years
So where do I go from here
Lovers plans, like falling leaves on windy days
Flutter past and they fly away
I thought I knew you all so well
And I need you now
I need to feel you in the night
I need your smile so warm and bright
I wish my mind could let you go
You said that you’ll take me though the years
So where do I go from here
