LIFE WILL GO ON
By
Barry Manilow
***************
Goodbye
There’s a word I hated
All my life
Unanticipated tears
Can hurt so much
My friend
It’s so sad to see you
At love’s end
I’ve been through the pain myself
It’s really wrong
To play it strong
Go on and cry
’til you run dry
It’s alright
Go on and scream
At broken dreams
It’s alright
Let sorrow have it’s day
And when it’s done
Life will go on
In time
Thoughts of “might have been”
Will leave your mind
And sweet forgetfulness
Will come
Don’t worry now
Just when or how
Go on and cry
’til you run dry
It’s alright
Go on and scream
At broken dreams
It’s alright
Let sorrow have it’s day
To cry out
It’s no crime
In no time
Life will go on
Go on and cry
’til you run dry
It’s alright
Go on and scream
At broken dreams
It’s alright
Let sorrow have it’s day
And when it’s done
Life will go on and on
It’s alright
Yes it’s alright
Let sorrow have it’s day
And when it’s done
Life will go on and on
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
BEAUTIFUL MUSIC
***************
Before I knew that I was blessed
When I was just like the rest of the people
Who never let dreams in their minds
Music would play and say
Maybe you’re wastin’ your time
Before I knew what good could be
When I couldn’t see the need or the reason
For trusting in me or my star
Music would play and say
Hey, what a dummy you are!
And when I heard all the words about passion
Singin’ to me about love of a fashion
That I never heard anywhere else
That’s when I said,
“Gotta get some of that for myself”
And when I heard about hurtin’ and healin’
Beautiful words about beautiful feelings
What lots of believin’ could do
Beautiful music, I knew it just had to be true
You’re beautiful
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Before I saw my life in lights
When I couldn’t taste the nights I was missin’
I’d listen alone in my bed
And music would sing to me
Things no one else even said
And when I heard all the words about passion
Singin’ to me about love of a fashion
That I never heard anywhere else
That’s when I said,
“Gotta get some of that for myself”
And when I heard about hurtin’ and healin’
Beautiful words about beautiful feelings
What lots of believin’ could do
Beautiful music, I knew it just had to be true
You’re beautiful
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music
And now I laugh and now I cry like a baby
Livin’ and lovin’ each day
And just maybe
For all the good things that came true
Beautiful music
The best of my blessings is you
You’re beautiful
Beautiful music
LUCK BE A LADY
***************
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck if you ever been a lady
To begin with
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be
I know the other way you treated other guys you’ve been with
Luck be a lady with me
A lady doesn’t leave her escort
It isn’t fair it isn’t nice
A lady doesn’t wonder all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice
So let’s keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby
I’m the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight
A lady wouldn’t flirt with strangers
She have a heart
She have a soul
A lady wouldn’t make little snake eyes at me
When I bet my life on this roll
So let’s keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby
I’m the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady
Tonight, ha
ANGEL EYES
***************
Try to think that love’s not around
Still it’s uncomfortably near
My old heart ain’t gaining any ground
Because my angel eyes ain’t here
Angel eyes, that old Devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love’s mispent
Mispent with angel eyes tonight
So drink up all you people
Order anything you see
And have fun you happy people
The drink and the laughs on me
But pardon me I got to run
The fact’s uncommonly clear
I gotta find who’s now the number one
And why my angel eyes ain’t here
Pardon me I got to run
The fact’s uncommonly clear
See I gotta find who’s now the number one
And why my angel eyes ain’t here
Excuse me while I disappear
YOU MADE ME LOVE YOU
***************
You made me love you
I didn’t wanna do it
I didn’t wanna do it
You made me want you
And all the time you knew it
I guess you always knew it
You made me happy sometimes
You made me glad
But there were times
You made me feel so bad
You made me cry for
I didn’t wanna tell you
I didn’t wanna tell you
I want some love that’s true
Yes, I do, ‘deed I do
You know I do
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie, gimmie what I cry for
You know you’ve got the brand of kisses
That I’d die for
You know you made me love you
You made me cry for
I didn’t wanna tell you
I didn’t wanna tell you
I want some love that’s true
Yes, I do, ‘deed I do
You know I do
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie, gimmie what I cry for
You know you’ve got the brand of kisses
That I’d die for
You know you made me love you
