WHERE YOU GO
By
Barry Manilow
***************
Where you go
I will go
Where you walk
I’m beside you
My love, where you are is where I want to be
Where you go
We will go
Maybe scared
But together
With you, I’m prepared the rest is destiny
When it starts
Take my hand
And whether it’s through hell or to the promised land
God knows where
I’ll be there
Where you go
No matter where we go
Take my hand
And whether it’s through hell or to the promised land
Where you go
I will go
Where you lie
So will I
And I’ll stay
I will stay
‘Till the day
That we die
‘Till the day we die
SATURDAY NIGHT
***************
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
‘Cause that’s the night that my sweetie and I
Used to dance cheek to cheek
I don’t mind Sunday night at all
‘Cause that’s the night friends come to call
And Monday to Fridays go fast
And another week is past
But Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you at the door
Until you’re in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing a lonely song
And everything seems wrong
You know saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
And I sing a song for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you nocking at my door
Until you’re in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night
Saturday night is the doggone lonelest night in the week
Until I hear you at the door
Until you’re in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
THE AIR THAT I BREATHE
***************
If I could make a wish
I think I pass
Can’t think of any thing I need
No cigarettes,no sleep
No light,no sound
Nothing to real
Making love with you
Has made me peaceful
Warm,and tired
What more could I ask
Their nothing left to be desire
Sometimes, all I need is the
Air that I breath
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Peace came apond me
And it leaves me weak
Sleep silent angel
Go to sleep
Sometimes, all I need is this
Air that I breathe
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
All I need is the air that I breathe
All I need is the air that I breathe
STARDUST
***************
And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the skys the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we’re apart
You wandered down the lane and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust of yesterday
The music of the years gone by
Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely night dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
When our love was new
And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
Now my consolation is in the stardust of a song
Beside a garden wall
When stars are bright you are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
Of paradise where roses grew
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love’s refrain
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love’s refrain
WORK THE ROOM
***************
Open a door
On the seventeenth floor
Secretary sends me through
Walkin’ right in
With a big time grin
But I’m shakin’ in my shoes
Suit One shakes my hand
But it takes him a beat to recall my name
Gotta move it along
Gotta play somethin’ strong
Gotta show ‘em why I came
Work the room
Work the room, baby
Nobody here wants to know you
But tomorrow they’ll be talkin’ about you
Work the room
Startin’ in sweet
With a rockin’ beat
Show ‘em I can really ride
Not about fluff
Get to serious stuff
Here’s my softer side
Suit Two frowns
Is it bringin’ him down?
Or does it mean he’s in the groove?
Back to the beat
Activatin’ their feet
See the Pradas start to move
Work the room
They’re movin’
Oh baby
Watch them beginnin’ to wonder
You can bet tomorrow
They’ll have serious hunger
Work the room
Go one step up
Or all the way back
Take the turns
Or jump the track
Rise an inch – or fall for a mile
All the time remember to smile
Stoppin’ the show
But they don’t say go
Suddenly smiles all ‘round
Man oh man
We’re shakin’ hands
Telling me they like my sound
Big Suit smilin’ at me
Talkin’ about sales and fame
Everybody’s talkin’ to me
Makin’ it like I got it
Dammit now they know my name!
Work the room
They want me
I got it!
You went in an unsung zero
You’re comin’ out a musical hero
Never gonna have to work the room again!
I SHOULD CARE
***************
I should care
I should go around weeping
I should care
I should go without sleeping
Strangely enough I sleep well
‘cept for a dream or two
But then I count my sheep well
Funny how sheep can love you to sleep
But I should care
I shouldn’t let it upset me
I should care
But it just doesn’t get me
Maybe I won’t find someone
As lovely as you
But I should care
And I do
But I should care
And I do
