I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung alot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love on stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing a
song for you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darlin' can't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and i'm singing a
song for you
You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody
Cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place
Where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life
You are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing a
song for you
We were alone and I was singing a
song for you

Such a feelin's coming over me
There is wonder in most ev'ry thing I see,
Not a cloud in the sky got the sun in my eyes,
And I -- won't be surprised if it's a dream.
Ev'rything I want the world to be,
Is now coming true especially for me,
And the reason is clear - It's because you are here,
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen
I'm on the -- top of the world lookin'
down on creation and the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found, ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
Something in the wind has learned my name,
and it's tellin' me that things are not the same,
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze,
there's a pleasin' sense of happiness for me.
There is only one wish on my mind,
When this day is through I hope that I will find,
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me,
All I need -- will be mine if you are here.
I'm on the -- top of the world lookin'
down on creation and the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found, ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
I'm on the -- top of the world lookin'
down on creation and the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found, ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world

No one in the world ever had a love as sweet as my love
For nowhere in the world could there be a boy as true as you love
All my love I give gladly to you
All your love you give gladly to me
Tell me why, then, oh why should it be that
We go on hurting each other
We go on hurting each other
Making each other cry, hurting each other
Without ever knowing why
Closer than the leaves on a weeping willow baby we are
Closer dear are we than the simple letters A and B are
All my life I could love only you
All your life you could love only me
Tell me why, then, oh why should it be that
We go on hurting each other
We go on hurting each other
Making each other cry, hurting each other
Without ever knowing why
Can't we stop hurting each other?
Gotta stop hurting each other
Making each other cry, breaking each other's heart,
tearing each other apart
Can't we stop hurting each other?
Gotta stop hurting each other
Making each other cry, breaking each other's heart,
tearing each other apart

It's gonna take some time this time
To get myself in shape
I really fell out of line this time
I really missed the gate
The birds on the telephone line next time
Are crying out to me next time
And I won't be so blind next time
And I'll find some harmony
But it's going to take some time this time
And I can't make demands
But like the young trees in the wintertime
I'll learn how to bend
After all the tears we've spent how could we make amends?
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time
And I can't make demands
I'll learn how to bend
(music)
It's gonna take some time this time
No matter what I've planned
And like the young trees in the wintertime
I'll learn how to bend
After all the tears we've spent how could we make amends?
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time

I'll say goodbye to love
No one ever cared if I should live or die
Time and time again the chance for love has
passed me by
And all I know of love is how to live without it
I just can't seem to find it
So I' ve made my mind up I must live my life
alone
And though it's not the easy way
I guess I' ve always known
I' d say goodbye to love
there are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
Surely time will lose these bitter memories
And I'll find that there is someone to believe in
And to live for
Something I could live for
All the years of useless search
Have finally reached an end
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
From this day love is forgotten
I'll go on as best I can
What lies in the future is a mystery to us all
No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls
there may come a time when I will see that I've
been wrong
But for now this is my song
And it's goodbye to love
I'll say goodbye to love
. . .

We'll be right
We'll be right
We'll be right
We'll be right back
After we go
After we go to the bathroom

Bless the beasts and the children
For in this world they have no voice
They have no choice
Bless the beasts an the children
For the world can never be
The world they see
(*) Light their way
When the darkness surrounds them
Give them love
Let it shine all around them
(**) Bless the beasts and the children
Give them shelter from a storm
Keep them safe
Keep them warm

Everybody always asks me
How I got to play so fine
And, friends, I'm going to tell you
It really did take some time
Yes, after years and years of practice
And a case of real bad knees
While the other guys were out playing with the football
I was home banging on the keys
And it got me
Right where I am
This is me
Playing the piano
I hope you like what I do
It's for you
And I'll try and sing right too
I guess I'm really very lucky
That I've got this thing to play
'Cause it can really make me feel good
Even when it's cloudy and grey
Yes, after years and years of practice
And awful allergies that made me sneeze
And now the other guys are out playing with their girlfriends
And I was still banging on the keys
And it got me
Right where I am
This is me
Playing the piano
I hope you like what I do
It's for you
And I'll try and sing right too
. . .

Day after day, I must face a world of strangers
Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong
It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to
Who will always care, you're always there
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
So many times when the city seems to be
Without a friendly face, a lonely place
It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you
And you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
Touch me and I end up singing
Trouble seems to up and disappear
You touch me with the love you're bringing
I can't really lose when you're near
When you're near, my love
If all my friends have forgotten half their promises
They're not unkind, just hard to find
One look at you and I know
That I could learn to live without the rest
I've found the best
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day ............................without you

Listen to the song he sings
Can't you see his music brings her crystal sleep?
As her heavy eyelids fall
He's taking her to where the dolls rule the world
And in that land of make believe is where he'll leave her sleeping
Softly warm in a crystal lullaby
He's weaving her a paper castle
Where dancing clowns with tassles made of fur
Welcome her into their world
That lives inside the dreams of every little girl
She's guarded by a brave tin soldier sitting on her shoulder
Taken there in a crystal lullaby
Sometimes when I listen to
The velvet song that fills a summer afternoon
Something deep within me sighs
And wishes for the peaceful skies of long ago
That wrapped my cares in silver air and carried them away
Leaving me and a crystal lullaby
That wrapped my cares in silver air and carried them away
Leaving me and a crystal lullaby
. . .

I've been on this lonely road so long
Does anybody know where it goes?
I remember the last time the signs pointed home
A month ago
Rented cars and empty motel rooms
Lead you everywhere but home
Crowds of people shouting how they love the show
They don't know
The endless crowds of faces
Just keep on wearing a smile
The countless times and places
Lead me back, please take me back home
I wonder if these feelings ever change
How many times I'll lift this load
Come tomorrow I'll be gone again
Roads of sorrows coming to an end for me
The endless crowds of faces
Just keep on wearing a smile
The countless times and places
Lead me back, please take me back home
I wonder if these feelings ever change
How many times I'll lift this load
Come tomorrow I'll be gone again
Roads of sorrows coming to an end for me
. . .

I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
. . .
