HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN
By
Barry Manilow
***************
How much do I love you?
Ill tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How many times a day do I think of you?
How many roses are sprinkled with dew?
How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you, how much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you, how much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How high is the sky?
GREEN EYES
***************
Your green eyes with the soft light
Your eyes that promise sweet nights
Bring to my soul a longing
Of thirst for love’s devine
In dreams I seem to hold you
To find you and enfold you
Our lips meet and our hearts too
With a thrill so sublime
Those cool and limbit green eyes
A pool where in my love lies
So deep that in my searching
For happiness I feel
That they will ever hunt me
All through my life they’ll taunt me
But will they ever want me
Green eyes
Make my dream come true
Green eyes with there soft lights
And eyes that promise sweet nights
Bring to my soul a longing
A thirst for love devine
In dreams I seem to hold you
To find you and enfold you
Our lips meet and our hearts too
With a thrill so sublime
Those cool and limbit green eyes
A pool where in my love lies
So deep that in my searching
For happiness I feel
That they will ever hunt me
All through my life they’ll taunt me
But will they ever want me
Green eyes
Make my dream come true
MANDY (ACOUSTIC)
***************
I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice.
Shadows of a man,
A face through a window cryin’ in the night,
The night goes into
Morning just another day;
Happy people pass my way.
Looking in their eyes,
I see a memory I never realized how happy you made me.
Oh Mandy well,
You came and you gave without taking,
But I sent you away.
Oh, Mandy well,
Kissed me and stopped me from shaking,
And I need you today.
Oh, Mandy!
I’m standing on the edge of time;
I’ve walked away when love was mine.
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing,
The tears are in my mind and nothin’ in rhyming.
Oh Mandy well,
You came and you gave without taking,
But I sent you away.
Oh, Mandy well,
Kissed me and stopped me from shaking,
And I need you today.
Oh, Mandy!
Yesterday’s a dream
I face the morning
Crying on a breeze
The pain is calling
Oh Mandy
Well, you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today Oh, Mandy
You came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you
WHEN OCTOBER GOES
***************
And when October goes
The snow begins to fly
Above the smokey roofs
I watch the planes go by
The children running home
Beneath a twilight sky
Oh, for the fun of them
When I was one of them
And when October goes
The same old dream appears
And you are in my arms
To share the happy years
I turn my head away
To hide the helpless tears
Oh how I hate to see October go
And when October goes
The same old dream appears
And you are in my arms
To share the happy years
I turn my head away
To hide the helpless tears
Oh how I hate to see October go
I should be over it now I know
It doesn’t matter much
How old I grow
I hate to see October go
IF I SHOULD LOVE AGAIN
***************
Oh my love
You were the only one
Now you’re gone and I’m alone
All my friends
They say what’s done is done
I pretend
But deep inside I know
If I should love again
If I find someone new
It would be make-believe
For in my heart
It would be you
And though I hold her close
And want her now and then
I’ll still be loving you
If I should love again
All day long
I keep remembering
All the night
I think of you
All my life
You’ll be the song I sing
I’ll get by
But this I swear is true
If I should love again
LOSING TOUCH
***************
I can tell something up
You havn’t touched your scotch
You’ve been starring out the window
Now your starring at you watch
And lately that’s been happening to much
I think we’re losing touch
Is it something that I’ve done
Or thing I never said
It’s been getting pretty quiet
There on you side of the bed
Remember when we used to talk so much
I think we’re loseing touch
After all the love we found together
Who had ever guessed ,that we could fall
After all the things we had in common
Where they to commom after all
Won’t you tell me what’s wrong
I haven’t got a clue
Is there something we can take for this
Or somethink we can do
Together you and I have had so much
There’s so much to lose
And I think we’re losing touch
