Альбом Barry Manilow

This one will never sell,
they'll never understand,
I don't even sing it well,
I try, but I just can't.
But I sing it every night,
and I fight to keep it in,
'Cause This One's For You,
This One's For You.

I've done a hundred songs,
from fantasies to lies,
But this one's so real for me
that I'm the one who cries.
But I sing it every night,
and I fight to hide the tears,
Cause This One's For You,
This One's For You.

This One's For You wherever you are,
to say that nothings been the same
since we've been apart.
This one's for all the love we once knew
Like This One's For You, oh.
This One's to say that all I can do
is hope that you will hea r me sing
cause This One's For You oh

This One's For You wherever I go,
to say that nothings been the same
since we've been apart.
This one's for all the love we once knew
Like everything else I have,
This One's For You oh

I've got it all,
it seems, for all it means to me,
But I sing of things I miss
and things that used to be.
And I wonder everynight
if you might just miss me too,
And I sing for you I sing for you.

I'm singin' to the world
It's time we let the spirit come in
Let it come on in
I'm singin' to the world
Everybody's caught in the spin
Look at where we've been
We've been runnin' around
Year after year Blinded with pride
Blinded with fear

But it's Daybreak If you wanna believe
It can be Daybreak Ain't no time to grieve
Said it's Daybreak If you'll only believe
And let it shine, shine, shine
All around the world

Singin' to the world
What's the point in puttin' it down?
There's so much love to share
I'm singin' to the world
Don't you see it all comes around
The feeling's everywhere
We've been closin' our eyes
Day after day Covered in clouds
Losin' our way

Hey, but it's Daybreak If you wanna believe
It can be Daybreak Ain't no time to grieve
Said it's Daybreak If you'll only believe
And let it shine, shine, shine
All around the world

Everybody's here, spinnin' the bottle
Everybody dance, dance, dance
And you walk in, with your new friend
Well my friend, have I lost again?

'Cause I know pretty baby
You oughta be home with me
Yes I know pretty woman
You oughta be home with me

Well you can love the one you're with
But you can love the one
You oughta be with
And tonite pretty baby
You oughta be home with me

You've been lookin' at me tryin' to hide it
You smile so sweet
As you dance by with your new friend
Can't you see it's killin' me

'Cause I know pretty baby
You oughta be home with me
Yes I know pretty woman
You oughta be home with me
Well you can love the one you're with
But you can love the one
You oughta be with
And tonite pretty baby
You oughta be home with me
You oughta be home with me
Oh woman
(REPEAT)

Well not to long ago in nineteen forty-four
When every mother's son was goin' off to war
They had to lift they spirits high (High!)
For Uncle Sam, motherhood and apple pie
Instead of spendin' money that they didn't have
In hot spot in the Bronx
They went to hear the kinD of jazz
You hear in funky honky-tonks

It made you wanna
Jump, shout, knock yourself out
Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about
If you had the heebie-jeebies
you could dance away
To the boogie-woogie music
the piano man was playin'
You could jump, shout, knock yourself out
Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about
You could pull a switcheroonie
if you felt low down
With the boogie-woogie beat
of a piano man who's goin' to town

It had the kind of rhythm that would fill the hall
The plinkin' and the plunkin' drove 'em up the wall
Then they would dance and drink their gin
And when the fuzz buzzed they'd join in
So everybody partied 'till the cows came home
'Cause that's what boogie's for
And every night that dump would jump
And keep 'em comin' back for more

Because it made you wanna
Jump, shout, knock yourself out
Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about
If you had the heebie-jeebies
you could dance away
To the boogie-woogie music
the piano man was playin'
You could jump, shout, knock yourself out
Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about
You could pull a switcheroonie if you felt low down
With the boogie-woogie beat
of a piano man who's goin' to town

It made you wanna Jump, shout
(Foo-der-acka-sacki)
Wanna jump, shout
(Slip the talcum to me Malcom)
You wanna jump, shout
(Floy-doy, floy-doy)
To the boogie-woogie music
the piano man was playin'
And you could jump, shout, knock yourself out
Boogie-woogie beat is what I'm talkin' about
You could pull a switcheroonie
if you felt low down
To the boogie-woogie beat
of a piano man who's goin' to town

Shake it, yes, yes, yes

Last night, I said goodbye
Now--it seems year
I'm back in the city
Where nothing is clear
But thoughts of me --holding you
Bringing us near

And tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearning end
And when Will I hold you again

Time in New England
Took me away
To long rocky beaches
--and you, by the bay
We started a story
Whose end must now wait

And, tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearning end
And when Will I hold you again

I feel the change comin'
--I feel the wind blow
I feel brave and daring!
I feel my blood flow
With you
I can bring out
All the love, that I have
--With you there's a heaven
So earth ain't so bad

And tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearning end
And when Will I hold you again

Christy wants a millionaire, a miracle in the rain
Everybody's lookin' to find their heaven,
never come back again
People keep searchin' up and down
Joinin' in the latest thing
And I run around lookin' for love
Waitin' for bells to ring

Riders to the stars
We are flyin', we are fallin'
And I can see the clouds rollin' by
Riders to the stars
We are sailin', we are soarin'
And all we can do is try
We are riders to the stars
We are riders to the stars

Billy wants a fancy car,
says it's just what he needs
Folks into showin', just what they're blowin'
Followin' foolish leads
And Christy wants to find her millionaire,
her miracle in the rain
And I lift my head right up to the sun
Never look down again

Riders to the stars
We are flyin', we are fallin'
And I can see the clouds rollin' by
Riders to the stars
We are sailin', we are soarin'
And all we can do is try
We are riders to the stars
We are riders to the stars

Some folks have money, and others survive
God knows, it's not easy just bein' alive
The dreamer dreams on, and dreams never die
Long as we try, long as we try

Riders to the stars
We are flyin', we are fallin'
And I can see the clouds rollin' by
Riders to the stars We are sailin', we are soarin'
And all we can do is try
We are riders to the stars
We are riders to the stars

I never feared the devil
or the gypsy in my soul
But you're not on the level
and I'm not in control
And I'm afraid your baby blues
are just too much for me
And I'm afraid I'll lose my heart
if you don't set me free

Let me go!
I don't wanna believe you
I just wanna be gone
I just wanna be gone
Let me go!
Don't say how much I need you
Say goodnite and move on
Say goodnite and move on

If you get me under your spell
I'll be lost for good, I can tell
Let me go!
Don't let me love you
Let me go!

Hey, I never bought a hustle
and I never took a dive
I've always had the muscle
to get through love alive
But I'm afraid your lovely lies
might just do me right in
And I'm afraid to play tonite
cause I know that I won't win

Let me go!
I don't wanna be lovers
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be free
Let me go!
You've got so many others
Have some pity on me
Some pity on me

On my own I'm doin' just great
So don't mess around with my fate
Let me go!
Don't let me love you
Let me go!

There you are
Lookin' just the same as you did,
Last time I touched you
And, here I am
Close to gettin' tangled up
Inside the thought of you

Do you love him
as much as I love her
And will that love be strong
When old feelings start to stir

Looks like we made it
Left each other on the way,
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it

Love's so strange
Playin' hide and seek, with hearts
And always hurtin'
And we're the fools
Standin' close enough to touch
Those burnin' memories

And if I hold you
For the sake of all those times
love made us lose our minds
Could I ever let you go

Oh, no...we made it
Left each other, on the way
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it

If ya gotta go,
Then I'll make out all right
If you wanna know
I knew it wasn't right
All the time.
We'll make out somehow
Just like we did before
Just don't turn around,
When you walk out the door
And just one time.

Say the words Say the words I love
Fill the time 'Till the time
You can't stay
Say the words Say the words I love
Fill the time 'Till the time
You can't stay.

Nothin' left to do.
It's done, there is no more
Nothin' left to say
We've said it all before¡­
Yes, I know
Wouldn't trade away
A day of what we had
I know you shouldn't stay
But, babe it wasn't bad
Before you go¡­

Say the words Say the words I love
Fill the time 'Till the time
You can't stay.
Say the words Say the words I love
Fill the time 'Till the time
You can't stay.

All The Time I thought there's only me
crazy in a way that no one else could be,
I would have given everything I own,
If someone would have said you're not alone.

All The Time
All The Time I thought that I was wrong,
wanting to be
but needing to belong,
If I had just believed in all I had,
If someone would have said you're not so bad.

All The Time, all the wasted time,
All the years waiting for a sign,
To think I had it all... All The Time

All The Time I Thought there's only me
crazy in a way that no one else could be
I can't believe that you were somewhere too,
thinking All The Time there's only you.

All The Time, all the wasted time,
All the years waiting for a sign,
To think I had it all... All The Time

They tell me, I'm the man of the hour.
--Champagne, all around
It's been so long since I've been alone¡­
Sometimes, it gets me down.

And you, You're pretty as a picture
And I don't even know your name
But I sure would like to meet you¡­
Why don't you see the show again.

I've been singin' these love songs forever
Sometimes the words don't make much sense
So I'm living it all through the music
Using last nights compliments

I've been playing for thousands of people
Sometimes, it just never ends.
But the look in your eyes feels so good to me
Why don't you see the show again.

God knows, there's not much I can say
I don't have time for love in my life
But if I ever thought, about changin' my mind
It might be with you, tonight.

I've been on the road, for so many weeks now
And I'm losin' track of time¡­
Tryin' to make ev'ryone happy
I wonder what's really mine.

And you, You're pretty as a picture
And I don't even know your name
But I sure would like to meet you¡­
Why don't you see the show again.
