Oh my love
You were the only one
Now you’re gone and I’m alone
All my friends
They say what’s done is done
I pretend
But deep inside I know

[Chorus:]

If I should love again
If I find someone new
It would be make-believe
For in my heart
It would be you

And though I hold her close
And want her now and then
I’ll still be loving you
If I should love again
All day long
I keep remembering
All the night
I think of you
All my life
You’ll be the song I sing
I’ll get by
But this I swear is true

[Chorus]

If I should love again
If I should love again

I’ve been alive forever
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together
I am music
And I write the songs

[Chorus:]
I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

My home lies deep within you
And I’ve got my own place in your soul
Now when I look out through your eyes
I’m young again, even tho’ I’m very old

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

Oh, my music makes you dance and gives you spirit to take a chance
And I wrote some rock ‘n roll so you can move
Music fills your heart, well that’s a real find place to start
It’s from me, it’s for you
It’s from you, it’s for me
It’s a worldwide symphony

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

I am music and I write the songs
I am music and I write the songs

Just One Voice,
Singing in the darkness,
All it takes is One Voice,
Singing so they hear what’s on your mind,
And when you look around you’ll find
There’s more than
One Voice,

Singing in the darkness,
Joining with your One Voice,
Each and every note another octave,
Hands are joined and fears unlocked,
If only
One Voice
Would start it on its own
We need just One Voice
Facing the unknown,
And that One Voice
Would never be alone
It takes that One Voice.

Ba ba ba da da da da,
Ba ba ba ba ba ba da da da,
Ba ba ba ba ba ba
It takes that one voice

Just One Voice
Singing in the darkness,
All it takes is One Voice,
Shout it out and let it ring.
Just One Voice,
It takes that One Voice,
And everyone will sing!
And everyone will sing!

I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice.
Shadows of a man,
A face through a window cryin’ in the night,
The night goes into
Morning just another day;
Happy people pass my way.
Looking in their eyes,
I see a memory I never realized how happy you made me.

Oh Mandy well,
You came and you gave without taking,
But I sent you away.
Oh, Mandy well,
Kissed me and stopped me from shaking,
And I need you today.
Oh, Mandy!

I’m standing on the edge of time;
I’ve walked away when love was mine.
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing,
The tears are in my mind and nothin’ in rhyming.

Oh Mandy well,
You came and you gave without taking,
But I sent you away.
Oh, Mandy well,
Kissed me and stopped me from shaking,
And I need you today.
Oh, Mandy!

Yesterday’s a dream
I face the morning
Crying on a breeze
The pain is calling
Oh Mandy
Well, you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today Oh, Mandy
You came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away oh, Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you
And I need you

You wouldn’t believe where I’ve been
The city and towns I been in
From Boston to Denver
And every town in between

The people they all look the same
Only the names have been changed
But now that I’m home again
I’ll tell you what I believe

It’s a miracle
A true blue spectacle
A miracle come true
We’re together ,baby-I was goin’ crazy
’till the miracle
Came through
Now you here,and my arms are around you
And baby, there’ll be
Dancin in the streets

Holdin’ you near me at night

You know that I’m home to stay

Cause’ its a miracle

High up where the stallion meets the sun

Doctor, my woman is comin’ back home late today
Could ya’ maybe give me something?
’cause the feelin’ is gone and I must get it back right away
Before she sees that I’ve been

Up, down, tryin’ to get the feeling again
All around…. tryin’ to get the feeling again
The one that made me shiver, made my knees start to quiver
Every time she walked in
And I’ve looked high, low, everywhere I possibly can
But there’s no tryin’ to get the feeling again
It seemed to disappear as fast as it came

Where did it run to?
I thought I’d done all that I could
Just to keep the lovelight burnin’
But whatever I’ve done I guess I just haven’t done it too good
’cause all that’s left is yearnin’

Cause I been up, down, tryin’ to get the feeling again
All around….tryin’ to get the feeling again
The one that made me shiver, made my knees start to quiver
Every time she walked in
And I’ve looked high, and low and everywhere I possibly can
But there’s no tryin’ to get the feeling again
It seemed to disappear as fast as it came
And I’ve been lookin’, I’ve been lookin’, I’ve been lookin’
I’ve been up, and down and tryin’ to get the feelin’
I’ve been up ..I’ve been down…I’ve been tryin’ to get
I’ve been tryin’..I’ve been tryin’..I’ve been tryin’
To get the feeling
I’ve been tryin’ to get the feeling again
I want to get that feeling
I’m going to get that feeling
I got to get that feeling
I got to get that feeling
And again…and again…and again…and again
Tryin’ to get that feeling
I been tryin’ to get the feeling again
I been tryin’ to get the feeling again

Before I knew that I was blessed
When I was just like the rest of the people
Who never let dreams in their minds
Music would play and say
Maybe you’re wastin’ your time

Before I knew what good could be
When I couldn’t see the need or the reason
For trusting in me or my star
Music would play and say
Hey, what a dummy you are!

And when I heard all the words about passion
Singin’ to me about love of a fashion
That I never heard anywhere else
That’s when I said,
“Gotta get some of that for myself”
And when I heard about hurtin’ and healin’
Beautiful words about beautiful feelings
What lots of believin’ could do
Beautiful music, I knew it just had to be true
You’re beautiful
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music

Before I saw my life in lights
When I couldn’t taste the nights I was missin’
I’d listen alone in my bed
And music would sing to me
Things no one else even said

And when I heard all the words about passion
Singin’ to me about love of a fashion
That I never heard anywhere else
That’s when I said,
“Gotta get some of that for myself”
And when I heard about hurtin’ and healin’
Beautiful words about beautiful feelings
What lots of believin’ could do
Beautiful music, I knew it just had to be true
You’re beautiful
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music
Beautiful Music

Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music
Beautiful, Beautiful Music

And now I laugh and now I cry like a baby
Livin’ and lovin’ each day
And just maybe
For all the good things that came true
Beautiful music
The best of my blessings is you
You’re beautiful
Beautiful music
Beautiful music
