GOODBYE MY LOVE
By
Barry Manilow

***************

You look away from me again
There’s really nothing to explain
Feel it in your kiss
I guess this is good-bye my love
The way I feel don’t have a name
The days and nights so filled with pain
Thought that I would stay
But I gotta say good-bye my love
You used to laugh and say
If you play, play for gold
I didn’t know that I would lose my heart
And soul
I didn’t know

I won’t regret the time we had
I’ll think of you and I’ll be glad
But this is the end
One last kiss and then good-bye my love
I won’t regret the time we had
I’ll think of you and I’ll be glad
But this is the end
One last kiss and then good-bye my love
Good-bye my love
Good-bye my love

A LITTLE TRAVELING MUSIC PLEASE

***************

On the road so long and lonely
Can’t believe I’m headed home to stay
God I miss my one and only
A little traveling music please
Seems we’re always seperating
Still she doesn’t let me lose my way
Home is anywhere she’s waiting

A little traveling music please
I may forget how much I care
But once I’ve left her laughter
Two and three days after
I’m aware how much I miss her there
This time I’ll stay home forever
Hold her close and turn the world away
Even if it’s not forever
It it’ll keep me from unraveling

A little traveling music please
Two and three days after
I’m aware how much I miss her there
This time I’ll stay home forever
Hold her close and turn the world away
Even if it’s not forever
She’s going to keep me from unraveling

A little traveling music please
A little traveling music please

NEVER MY LOVE

***************

You ask me if there’ll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love
Never my love

You wonder if this heart of mind
Will lose it’s desire for you
Never my love
Never my love

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends on you
You say you fear I’ll change my mind
I won’t require of you
Never my love
Never my love

How can you think love will end
When I’ve asked you to spend your whole life with me
You say you fear I’ll change my mind
I won’t require of you
Never my love
Never my love

I’VE HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE

***************

Now I’ve had the time of my life
No I never felt like this before
Yes I swear it’s the truth
And I own it all to you
‘Cause I’ve had the time of my life
And I owe it all to you

I’ve been waiting for so long
Now I’ve finally found someone
To stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical
Fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes
There’s no way we could disguise it
Secretly
So we take each other’s hand
‘Cause we seem to understand
The urgency just remember

You’re the one thing
I can’t get enough of
So I’ll tell you something
This could be love because

I’ve had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it’s the truth
And I owe it all to you

With my body and soul
I want you more than you’ll ever know
So we’ll just let it go
Don’t be afraid to lose control,no
Yes I know whats on your mind
When you say “Stay with me
Tonight.” Just remember

You’re the one thing
I can’t get enough of
So I’ll tell you something
This could be love because

‘Cause I had the time of my life
And I’ve searched through every open door
Till I’ve found the truth
And I owe it all to you

I’VE NEVER BEEN SO LOW ON LOVE

***************

Well, I’ve never been so low on love
And I know I never hurt so bad
I never tried so hard
Just to see it fall apart
Just to lose the sweetest love I ever had
Well I’ve never been so low on love
And I know I’ll never be the same
I know you meant to stay
So if I drove you away
Oh I know that I’m the only one to blame
They say that everyday should make me stronger
And one day I won’t think of you at all
But everyday you’re gone the days get longer
And all I do is wait for you to call
Well I’ve never been so low on love
And I know that as the years go by
I’ll still be lovin’ you
When I’m holdin’ someone new
And when I think about the tears you made
Me cry
I know you never really cared enough
And I’ve never been so low on love

IT’S A LONG WAY UP

***************

Once you find what matters in your life
Keep on pushing through the darkness
Till you see the light
You’re gonna find it
You’re no longer behind it
Once you learn what you’ve been doin’ wrong
You can make the change
You need to make the carry on
Now and forever
The sooner the better, just remember now….

It’s a long way up
When you’re coming from nowhere
It’s a long way up
When you’re coming from nowhere

You gotta fight a little harder
You gotta push a little more
You gotta gamble everything you got
To get you through the door
’cause it’s a long way up
You’ve been down before that’s okay
You can rest assured
That every dog will have his day
And life is a jungle
But you ain’t gonna crumble, remember now…

Don’t give up the dream
Hey don’t you know it’s dark before the dawn
When you think you just can’t take it
That’s when you’ll make it
You gotta to fight a little harder
You gotta push a little more
You gotta gamble everything you got
To get you through the door
’cause it’s a long way up
You gotta to fight a little harder
You gotta push a little more
You gotta gamble everything you got
To get you through the door
