Bay City Rollers Album

Listen to the radio
A voice on the early show says I'm not alone
It's just another rainy day in New York City
And the rain comes pouring down
Like early morning strangers we had nothing left to say but
"See you round".

And I think of the night when it all felt so right
How was I supposed to know?
Now your feeling's gone 'cos when I call on the phone
You told the operator say "Sorry, no-one's home"

It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty
I held my candle to the wind and watched my dreams just sail away
With another rainy day in New York City

To think that only yesterday
Life was such an easy game that I could play
Now it's another rainy day in New York City
And the rain comes pouring down

So I'm on my own and the radio says
That the sun ain't gonna shine
With the words you said spinnin' round in my head
You know I can't find a way to get you out of my mind.

It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty
I held my candle to the wind and watched my dreams just sail away
With another rainy day in New York City

It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty (to fade)

All of the world is falling in love
The sound of love is in the air
It's everywhere
Think of the love that we have to give
The world as one and let live
For love is the reason
And now is the season
For sharing
For giving
And caring
All of the world is falling in love
The sound of love is in the air
It's everywhere
Look at the world that we call our own
The children sing out alone
A new day is dawning
A new way is coming
I love you
You love me
We are love
All of the world is falling in love
They take me back to the place
That I love
All of the world is falling in love
The sound of love is in the air
is everywhere
Et tout le monde tombe amoureux
lis me ramaint a l'endroit
Que j'aime
Et tout le monde tombe amoureux
Le chante d'amour est dans nos coeurs
li est partout
All of the world is falling in love
All of the world is falling in love
They take me back
To the place
That I love
All of the world is falling in love
The sound of love
is in the air
it's everywhere

Darlin'
you don't have to worry 'bout what people say
Darlin'
we were gonna end up like this anyway
You with one, and me with another
It just had to end sometime
But I can't take it, I can't fake it
Help me girl 'cause I just can't make it
*Chorus*
Where will I be now
without the love you gave to me
You made those days a fantasy
You opened up the best of me
Where will I be now
without the love you gave to me
Oh, I can't fake it, I can't
make it alone.
Darlin'
there is nothing left for me that can compare
Hey Darlin'
With the kind of love that stripped me bare
Of cool and pose
Lord only knows what I'm gonna live for now
But I can't take it, I can't fake it
Help me girl, cause I just can't make it
*repeat chorus
solo
*repeat chorus

You've been high on love
I've been on my knees
I've been stuck in the middle
Now you know how it feels
I'm back on my feet
Down on the street
Yes, I'm back on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
You know I'm down on the street
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street
I hear the music of the street
Is everywhere
I've been wasting time
You've been chasing me
Now you're out of my mind
Time has set me free
And I'm back on the street
Back on the beat
Yes I'm back on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
You know I'm down on the street
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street
I hear the music of the street
It's everywhere
Yes I'm back on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
You know I'm down on the street
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street
I'll see you down on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street

Headin' out of the city life,
Suitcase full of dreams
Trying to find some kind of memories
That didn't hold a distant scheme
Something she said I can't remember
But I answered her in turn all the same
And what I saw in her style
Well I'd seen it before
But somehow it looked quite different this time
Goodbye to all the friends I never had
Do you still remember me
Takin' care of all your business
You give it all away
And I wonder with all your broken dreams
and promises
If you ever knew me at all
For we are older now
But somehow you still look the same.
Say a prayer for the one you need
Too many here come back Saturday
Don't be concerned
There's too many words to say
Some things will never change
So many faces seemed to pass me by
I've had my share yes it's been used
Money talks, that's what they'd say to me
I'd only laugh at you confused
What used to be an old apartment
They've built a multi-colored jug-saw in the sky
And where the children would play
Well, they're not there anymore
But the rooms are nice with numbers on the door
But in her eyes there's a place for me
An open heart where I can hide away
Forget the changes
As life rearranges to something new
And will she wait for me
When all is said and done will she still be free
or will the chance be lost
Fro love is so hard to take
When dreams in the night are blown away
In her hand lies an opened book
She gives a sign then she turns the page
And in her smile she knows how it all will end
But in my eyes she sees
We're strangers in the wind

It's not because your eyes say something to me
It's not because your smile flies me away
Really it's an ordinary day
But sunshine's shining through me
It seems you kinda did it to me
Love brought me such a magical thing
And left me new
Love brought me such a magical thing
And gave me you
Love brought me such a magical thing
And left me new
Love brought me such a magical thing
And gave me you
It's not the words you quietly whisper to me
the way you say them leaves them far behind
Sometimes it's so difficult to find
A way to tell you truly
It seems you kinda did it to me
No shorter than endlessly

If you were my woman
And I was your man
If you were my woman
I'd be your man
Oh baby when I feel your touch
The magic in your fingers takes control of me
My love for you is way too much
Don't turn me off, don't leave me Don't
set me free
Hold on to what we've got
If nothin'else we've got a lot
Your loving takes me higher
Takes me high.
If you were my woman
And I was your man
Would you be my woman
Then I'd be your man
Well baby when I saw you on that night
I had to put my loving spell on you
You were standing in the rain
But through the stormy weather all your love
came shining through
Oh baby can't you see
A love like this was meant to be
Your loving takes me higher
Takes me high
'If you were my woman
And I was your man
If you were my woman
I'd be your man
Oh baby can't you see
A love like this was meant to be
Your loving takes me higher
Takes me high
If you were my woman
And I was your man
Would you be my woman
I'd be your man
If you were my woman
And I was your man
Now you are my woman
I am you man

Don't turn away
When I call to you
Cause I can't take the strain any more
There are times in my life
When I've wanted you
But you turned and walked out through the door
When every move I make
is all for your loving sake
And every dream at night
is all trying to keep it right
And every tear I cry
is all for the last
Baby the last goodbye
The lights all go down
On this lonely town
Far away I can hear the last train
Makes me think of my home
And you waiting around
And I know that you feel just the same
What you say
Not today
Don't turn away
When I call you
Cause I can't take the strain anymore
Every tear I cry
Every tear I cry
Every tear I cry

Listen while I sing you a song
it used to make your mama cry
Snuggle up, I'll sing you to sleep
Valentino what a guy
Lay down your sleepy head
This is what your mama said
Close your eyes and you will see
Make up, lights, terpsichory!
Shoorah Shoorah for Hollywood
The Golden Age of Hollywood
The days of silver starlight in her eyes
Makes her young again
Even though she's very old
But in Hollywood
The secret's never told
Rudy stole the heart of the world
Dream lover of the silver screen
Your mama used to call out his name
But in the crowd was never seen
Powder puffs, and gigolos
Dancing girls in soft repose
Natasha, what did you see
Behind the scenes of Valvoline
Shoorah Shoorah for Hollywood
The Golden Age of Hollywood
The days of silver starlight in her eyes
Makes her young again
Even thought she's very old
But in Hollywood
The secret's never told

When I say I love you, you just act like I don't know
Tryin' hard to prove you're near me
Always asking if you hear me
Tellin' me has done it when you say you gotta go
While I'm tryin' to unwind
It's my loneliness that's bindin' me to you
Now when I say I love you
Now it really means I love you
Don't you know
And if I gave you somethin'
It's because you have me somethin'
but you don't know, yea you don't know
When I say I want you I can only give you pain
I can only bring you sorrow
I will always be the same
When I say I love you I can only speak your name
I can only take your number
If I ask you don't deny me one more time
Now when I say I love you
Now it really means I love you
don't you know
When the pie is open
There'll be many more to love you
You don't know, yea you don't know
