Neil Diamond Album

Saying "I love you"
Just sayin' "I love you"

Yesterday's songs
Don't stay around long
Not much anymore
Yesterday's words
Don't make themselves heard
Like they did before

Baby, yesterday's blues
May be yesterday's news
But the truth always stays the same
And the good things will never change
Like sayin' "I love you"
Just sayin' "I love you"

Yesterday's songs
Don't seem to belong
They're here and they're gone
Yesterday's moves
LyricsDon't stay in the grooves
They keep moving on

Maybe yesterday's rhyme
Was for yesterday's time
And the future's not ours to see
But there's some things that always will be
Like sayin' "I love you"
Sayin' "I love you"

Baby, yesterday's blues
May be yesterday's news
But the truth always stays the same
And the good things will never change
Like sayin' "I love you"
Just sayin' "I love you"
Sayin' "I love you"
Like sayin' "I love you"

We are two
And two of us are one
I'm back on my feet again,
Out on the street again
Looking for love
On the way to the sky

Some people moving up,
And some people standing still
Some hold their hands out,
And some people never will

Lovers and liars
Consumed by the fires
Of too many dances
But not enough song, you're my song

We pity the poor one,
The shy and unsure one
Who wanted it perfect
But waited too long
LyricsThere's no way to count
Or to measure the cost
Of the innocence lost
On the way to the sky
You and I

And we are two,
And two of us are one
But maybe two of us
Can be enough to get it done

Lovers and liars
Consumed by the fires
Of too many dances
But not enough song

We pity the poor one,
The shy the unsure one
Who wanted it perfect
But waited too long,
Much too long

I'm back on my feet again
I'm out on the street again
Looking for love
On the way to the sky
You and I

Right by you
Right by you
Want to do right by you
All night long

Right by you
Right by you
Want to be right by you
All night long

Why don't you tell me
I need to hear you say it
Come on and tell me
Just wanna hear it told

Don't I do right by you
Baby, don't I do right by you
All night long

Come on and say it
I love to hear you whisper
LyricsJust say you love me
I got to hear it told

Don't I do right by you
Baby, don't I do right by you
All night long

Don't I do right by you
Baby, don't I do right by you
All night long

Right by you
Right by you
Want to be right by you
All night long

Right by you
Right by you
Want to be right

Right by you
Right by you
Want to do
Right by you

Only you
You and the night
And the right kind of music
And only you
There's only you
And only the moments
That we've spent together will ever do

And only me
Me like the fool with his head in the clouds
Could believe
But I believe dreams will come true
With only you

And so I dreamed
I'll wait for the moment
I'm praying and hoping
That what I dreamed will soon come true
I'll have you forever
And never be lonely again
Not only friends, but lovers too
LyricsWith only you

Me, I was that fool on the hill
You know I will be waiting there still
Hoping you'd come back again
I heard your name
Echoing soft through the trees
I know it was calling to me
And nothing could keep me away
I only wanted to hold you
And only you

There's only you
And only me
Me like the fool with his head in the clouds
Could believe
But I believe dreams will come true
With only you

Me, I was that fool on the hill
You know I will be waiting there still
Hoping you'd come back again
I heard your name
Echoing soft through the trees
I know it was calling to me
And nothing could keep me away
I only wanted to hold you

And only you
You and the night
And the right kind of music
And only you

Hey, there's only you
Only you

Hey, it's only you
Only you

Hey, there's only you
Only you

Hey, it's only you
Only you

Hey, I know
When the wind comes
Blowing across the meadow
It sings your name

And I've seen
The starry nights fall across the ghetto
It sings the same

And I feel
The light in your eyes
And it's calling me
Stay just a little bit longer
It burns
Like a fiery star
In the midst of the night
And it's putting me under

Can anybody save me
Save me, save me from the storm
Save me, save me
LyricsSave me 'fore I'm gone
I'm only a man
And a man's gotta break
There's a lot I can stand
But not a lot I can take
Save me, something is taking me over
And there's no place that I can hide

Sweet dreams
My love and I by the edge of the river
We're feeling that glow

And we drink,
Making love in the sand
And I love being with her
But I got to go slow
'Cause I know
Just as sure
As the waves come beat on the sand
I'm a man that's divided

And the night,
Burning hot with her kiss
And I try to resist,
But there's no way to fight it

Hey, can anybody save me
Save me, save me from the storm
Save me, save me
Save me 'fore I'm gone
I'm only a man
And a man's gotta break
There's a lot I can stand
But not a lot I can take
Save me, something is taking me over
And there's nowhere that I can hide

Won't you save me
Someone is making me love her
It's breaking me up inside
Save me now

I never needed to hear the truth
You never wanted to know
I never wanted to be unkind
But then something kept telling me go
There was something kept telling me go

We stayed together like birds in a cage
But then one of us had to get free
But who had the heart to say goodbye
Wasn't you, so it had to be me
Wasn't you, so it had to be me

You told me to go when I wanted to stay
Making me over in every way
Telling me just what to do with my life
But oh how I wish you could be mine
Oh how I wish you would
Be mine tonight
Be mine tonight
Tonight
Be mine tonight
Lyrics
We never knew it for what it was worth
It was worth more than we understood
We never got past the lies and the hurt
And it hurt even when it was good
Yes it hurt even when it was good

You told me to go when I wanted to stay
Making me over in every way
Telling me just what to do with my life
But oh how I wish you could be mine
Oh how I wish you could
Be mine tonight
Be mine tonight
Tonight
Be mine tonight

Tonight
Be mine tonight
Tonight
Be mine tonight

Tonight
Be mine tonight
Tonight
Be mine tonight
Tonight
Tonight

Well, I'm the drifter
I walk the highways
I cross the river
That rolls on forgotten
I sing for the living
And live for the trying
But what's it about
If you got to be trying alone

And I'm the dreamer
Who climbed the mountain
I saw forever across the ocean
But you found me waitin'
And you knew that I would
Be lost forever
If I kept on trying alone

They'd call me the drifter
And I walked the highways
I crossed every river
That rolled on forgotten
LyricsI'd sing for the living,
But inside was dying
But what's it about
If you got to be trying alone

Well, I'm the drifter
Who saw the answer
And when I found you, I knew forever
It would be forever
And not for sometimes
And you'd be mine
Won't have to be trying alone

Now I sing like a dreamer
And I walk like I'm flying
I looked in your eyes
There was no use denying
You cared for that moment
And I knew the answer
I came for a while
And I stayed for the rest of my life

I came for a while
And I stayed for the rest of my life
I came for a while
And I stayed for the rest of my life

Well, I was the drifter
I walked the highways
I crossed every river
That rolled on forgotten
I sang for the living
And lived for the trying
I came for a while
And I stayed for the rest of my life

Fear of the marketplace
Afraid of the world outside her door
Baby, it's cold out there
And if it's cold
You can't come home anymore

Fear of the marketplace
Just gotta forget the whole damn thing
You're ready to take that fling
You're ready to make it swing
You've done it before
Just open the door

You and I
You know we tried
Tried it all before
And we almost made it through

Long ago
Was so far away
Like a flame that would burn
LyricsIn the heart of the night
Like a flame
That would giving heat giving light
It was right, yeah

Fear of the marketplace
Just taking that ride inside your head
Are you alive or dead
When you're alive
You get to try one more time
It's gonna be fine
Gonna be fine
Try one more time
You can try one more time

Won't to try one more time
Come on try one more time

We can try
Just one more time
One more time
You can try
Come on try
Just one more time
One more time
You can try

Can you hear my rainy day song
Callin' from the street below
Baby, since I've been without you
Well, it's the only song I know

And I keep hearing rainy day songs
Tappin' on my window sill
Some that soon won't be forgotten
And some that probably never will

Say, I know
You never did believe in rainbows
But hey, you know
The sun is somehow gonna shine
And babe,
We only have to look
And we can find it,
If we want to
If we need to

It's just another rainy day song
LyricsPlayed beneath the sorry sky
And when I try to understand it
I only end up askin' why

But still I hear those rainy day songs
Callin' out to me and you
I only hope that you can hear them
'Cause rainy days are made for two

Say, you know
There's always gonna be a rainbow
And hey, you know
That sun is always gonna shine
Come on babe,
We only have to look
And we can find it
If we want to
If we need to

Can you hear that rainy day song
It's such a lost and lonely sound
But baby, when I have you near me
Rainy days can't get me down

Babe I need to have you near me
'Cause it's rainy days
That get me down
Babe I got to have you near me
So rainy days don't get me down

Hey little boy just sittin' on your back porch
Pickin' on your guitar
Wishing you were far away

Well, I can tell you a little bit
A dream I see in your eyes
I hear it in the songs you play

And hey little boy, just play it like you feel it
Make it so real, it's almost too real to take
Just swing it like a player
Make it like a prayer
It's one from the heart,
Give it all of the heart it can take

And when you play what you want to play
You reach down to the soul
You keep on growin',
And you know someday
That sound is gonna turn into gold

LyricsBoy, you're takin' me there
To guitar heaven
And without sayin' a word
You lay it all on the line
You make me leave my cares
In guitar heaven
Just go and play your song
I could stay all night
Play it, son

[Guitar]

You know you're takin' me there
To guitar heaven
You make me feel every sound
You make it shine like a light

I'm gonna lose my cares in guitar heaven
You go and play that song
I 'm gonna stay a while

Go and play that song, boy
I'm gonna stay a while
The way you play that song
Makes me want to smile

See what you do
You make me act so crazy
I'm overcome, I know
Stealin' my own show
For your love

And who am I now, Clown or Casanova
I'm never sure with you
And what more can I do

For your love burns
Warmer than you know
When love burns,
Never let it go away

And where do we go
Find a road to lead us
I'm searching in your eyes
A world beyond the skies

For your love burns
LyricsBrighter than you know
When love burns,
Never let it go away

Love burns
Brighter than you know
Oh, love burns
Never let it go away

Love burns when the spirit is wounded
Cut deep by the sound of rejection
Love burns in the soul of the seeker
Blue shadows in every direction

Love burns when the heart is uncovered
In the rage of the coldly storm
Love burns
Through the night and the morning
Till the frozen heart is warm
Love burns
Love burns
Love burns
Love burns
