HEART OF STEEL
By
Barry Manilow
***************
I used to be such a soft touch
I gave too much
Love always came down losing Well the news is
I’m not for using
You can’t break this heart of steel
You won’t see me down on my knees again
You can’t break this heart of steel
Lovin’ you gave me a heart of steel
Knock on my door if you want to
Some night I might not want you
You taught me all the devices
Now my prices are the highest
You can’t break this heart of steel
You won’t see me down on my knees again
You can’t break this heart of steel
Lovin’ you gave me a heart of steel
You could have had me for all time
Now the pleasure I’m having is all mine
You can’t break this heart of steel
You won’t see me down on my knees again
You can’t break this heart of steel
Lovin’ you gave me a heart of steel
You can’t break this heart of steel
You won’t see me down on my knees again
You can’t break this heart of steel
Lovin’ you gave me a heart of steel
You can’t break this heart of steel
You won’t see me down on my knees again
You can’t break this heart of steel
Lovin’ you gave me a heart of steel
BABY IT’S COLD OUTSIDE
***************
Well honeybunch
It’s been fun
But gotta run
Oh sweetlips
Stay a little while longer won’t you
No it’s very late baby
I really got to go
But look at the weather
You’ll catch cold out there
And I would never forgive myself
Oh you
Come on just one more night cap
No I shouldn’t
Come on
No well
I really can’t stay
But baby it’s cold outside
I got to go away
But baby it’s cold outside
This evening has been
And hoping that you drop in
So very nice
I’ll hold your hands
There just like ice
My mother will start to worry
Beautiful what’s your hurry
And father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I better scurry
Beautiful please don’t go
Well maybe just a half drink more
Put some records on while I pour
The neighbors might think
But baby it’s bad out there
Say, what’s in this drink
No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like stars tonight
To break this spell
I’ll take your hat
Your hair looks swell
I oughta say no no no sir
Mind if I move in closer
At least I’m gonna say that I tried
What’s the sense of hurting my pride
I really can’t stay
Baby don’t hold on
Ah but it’s cold outside
Well I must say
This couch is very comfortable
It’s not a couch puddin’ pop
It’s a love seat
Oh how you talk
Oh Barry
I simply must go
But baby it’s cold outside
The answer is no
But baby it’s cold outside
The welcome has been
How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out the window
At that storm
My sister will be suspicious
Gosh your lips look good
My brother will be there at the door
Like waves upon a tropical storm
My maiden aunt’s mind is vicious
Gosh your lips are delicious
Well maybe just a cigarrette more
Never said your blues will be for
I’ve got to get home
But baby you’ll freeze out there
Say darling can you lend me your comb
It’s up to your knees out there
You really been grand
I thrill when you touch my hand
But don’t you see
How can you do this thing to me
There’s bound to be talk tomorrow
Think of my life long sorrow
At least there will be plenty in life
If you caught pneumonia and died
I really can’t stay
Get over that hold out
Ah but it’s cold outside
Well I don’t know
I don’t got to go home
Hey look it’s starting to snow
Oh you arranged that didn’t you?
See now you gotta stay
Well, I guess I won’t be able to find a cab
No cabs
And the buses they never run
They’ll never run in snow like this
Let me take your coat
Well tomorrow is Sunday isn’t it?
And I don’t have to go to work
See isn’t that better
And who knows how long it will keep snowing
It can snow for a long time, Kate
What are you doing?
Well now yeah
WHAT A DIFF’ERENCE A DAY MAKES
***************
What a diff’rence a day made
Twenty-four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
Where there used to be rain
My yesterday was blue, dear
Today I’m part of you, dear
My lonely nights are through, dear
(Since you said you were mine)
What a diff’rence a day makes
There’s a rainbow before me
Skies above can’t be stormy
Since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
(It’s heaven when you find romance on your menu)
What a diff’rence a day made
And the difference is you
(What a diff’rence a day makes)
(There’s a rainbow before me)
(Skies above can’t be stormy)
Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss
(It’s heaven when you find romance on your menu)
What a diff’rence a day made
And the difference is you
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!
I CAN’T GET STARTED
***************
I’ve flown around the world in a plane
I’ve settled revalations in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
Still I can’t get started with you
On the golf course, I’m under par
And Metro Golden’s asked me to star
I’ve got a house, a show place
Still I can’t get no place with you
Cause you’re so supreme
Lyrics I write of you
I dream, dream night and day of you
And I steam just for the sight of you
Baby what good does it do
I’ve been counsulted by Franklin D
And Greta Garbo gave me her key
Still I’m broken hearted
Cause I can’t get started with you
In 1929 I sold short
In England I’m presented a cord
But you’ve got me down hearted
Cause I can’t get started with you
SOME GIRLS
***************
Some girls will,some girls won’t
Some girls need alot of lovin’,and some
Girls don’t
Well,I know I’ve got the fever but I don’t know why
Some say they will and some girls lie
So here I am in front of you
Not really knowing what to do
My heart is feeling something new
Nervously I turn away from you
I see those looks you’re sending me
Is this the way it’s meant to be?
It’s something we should talk about
Just give me time to work it out
Some girls will,some girls won’t
Some girls need alot of lovin’ and some
Girls don’t
Well,I know I’ve got the fever but I don’t
Know why
Some say they will and some girls lie
I find your company to be
Something completely new to me
Now that I know you socially
Obviously I’ll fall heavily
I’ve seen those looks you’re sending me
This is the way it’s meant to be
There’s nothing left to talk about
Oh,how I wish you’d work it out
Some girls will,and some girls won’t
Some girls need a lot of lovin’ and some
Girls don’t
Well,I’ve got the fever but I don’t know why
Some say they will and some girls lie
Some girls will,and some girls won’t
Some girls need a lot of lovin’ and some
Girls don’t
Well,I’ve got the fever but I don’t know why
Some say they will and some girls
Some girls
Some girls
Well you know,you know what I mean
Some girls will,and some girls won’t
Some girls need a lot of lovin’ and some
Girls don’t
Well,I’ve got the fever but I don’t know why
Some say they will and some girls lie
