DON’T GET AROUND MUCH ANYMORE
By
Barry Manilow
***************
Miss the saturday dance
Heard they crowded the floor
I couldn’t bare it without you
Don’t get around much anymore
Thought I visit the club
Got as far as the door
They have asked me about you
Don’t get around much anymore
Well darling I guess
My mind’s more at ease
But never the less
I stir up memories
Been invited on dates
Might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don’t get around much anymore
Well darling I guess
My mind’s more at ease
But never, never the less
A baby why stir up memories
I miss the dance again
Might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don’t get around much anymore
YOU’VE GOT A FRIEND
***************
When you’re down in troubles
And you need some love and care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon i will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I’ll be there
Yes I will
You’ve got a friend
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you’ll hear me knocking at your door
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
Ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend
When people can be so cold
They’ll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don’t you let them
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend
HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY
***************
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there’s no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do
Oh the morning sun in all its glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
And you fill my life with laughter
You can make it better
Ease my troubles that’s what you do
There’s a love that’s divine
And it’s yours and it’s mine
Like the sun at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the One
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there’s no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do
There’s a love that’s divine
And it’s yours and it’s mine
And it shines like the sun
At the end of the day we will give thanks
And pray to the One
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there’s no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do
Take away my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles that’s what you do
Fill my life with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles that’s what you do.

SUMMER WIND
***************
The summer wind, came blowin’ in
From across the sea
It lingered there, to touch you hair
And walk with me
All summer long, we sang a song
And strolled the golden sand
Two sweethearts, and the summer wind
Like painted kites, the days and nights went flyin’ by
The world was new, beneath a blue umbrella sky
Then softer than, a piper man one day it called to you
And I lost you, to the summer wind
The autumn wind, and the winter winds have come and gone
And still the days, the lonely days go on and on
And guess who sighs his lullabies through nights that never end
Well my fickle friend, the summer wind
That old summer wind
Talkin’ ’bout the summer wind
The summer wind
SWEET HEAVEN (I’M IN LOVE AGAIN)
***************
Sweet heaven I’m in love again
Sweet heaven I’m in love again
You came along now what can I do
I only want to be with you
Sweet heaven here I go again
I’m hooked from head to toe again
One minute I’m so lonely and then
Oh sweet heaven
Hey babe
Now that I’ve found you life’s a song
Say babe
Where were you hiding I’ve been waiting so long
Sweet heaven I’m in love again
So totally in love again
I’ll shout it everywhere I go
I’ll sing it on the radio
I want the whole world to know
Sweet heaven I’m in love again
