I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU
By
Barry Manilow

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

My love must be a kind of blind love
I can’t see anyone but you
And dear, I wonder if you find love
An optical illusion, too?

Are the stars out tonight?
I don’t know if it’s cloudy or bright
‘Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can’t see a thing in the sky
‘Cause I only have eyes for you.

I don’t know if we’re in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR

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

It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you “Be of good cheer”
It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
It’s the hap -happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and gay happy meetings
When friends come to call
It’s the hap – happiest season of all

There’ll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There’ll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories of
Christmases long, long ago

It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
There’ll be much mistltoeing
And hearts will be glowing
When love ones are near
It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

And hearts will be glowing
When love ones are near
It’s The Most Wonderful Time

DON’T GET AROUND MUCH ANYMORE

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

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

CAN’T TAKE MY EYES OF YOU

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

You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off you.
You’d be like heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God I’m alive.
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off you.

Pardon the way that I stare.
There’s nothing else to compare.
The sight of you leaves me weak.
There are no words left to speak.
But if you feel like I feel.
Please let me know that it’s real.
You’re just too good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off you.

I love you baby, and if it’s quite all right,
I need you baby to warm the lonely night.
I love you baby.
Trust in me when I say:
Oh pretty baby, don’t bring me down, I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.

And let me love you, baby. Let me love you …

I love you baby, and if it’s quite allright,
I need you baby to warm the lonely night.
I love you baby.
Trust in me when I say:
Oh pretty baby, don’t bring me down, I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you. Stay.

Oh pretty baby. Trust in me when I say: Oh pretty baby …

DON’T FALL IN LOVE WITH ME

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

She was just a girl who knew the way
I was so naive
Everything she ever said to me
I wanted to believe
I was close to too far gone
When she sat me down and
Told me tenderly

Don’t fall in love with me
I’ll only break your heart
For us forever is just tomorrow
Don’t fall in love with me

Don’t let the fire start
If you should fall
I’m afraid I’ll follow you
Now I’m on the other side of love
Lookin’ right at you
There you are so young and sure
Your life has room enough for two
So it’s up to me to try and say
Words that didn’t stop me yesterday
