Live In Britain

Barry Manilow Live In Britain Lyrics
1.It's A Miracle/London

you wouldn't believe where I've been
the city and town I been in
from Boston to London
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
for the miracle
a true blue spectacle
the miracle is you
got your letter
monday I think
or tuesday I loss track
even when we parted I knew
that I'd be coming back to London
fillin' my mind with so many momorys
London
walking the strand and touring the tower
London
in the park,by the tmends ,drinking tea
London
sitting at pubs and shoping at Harords
London
learin the accent
learning to love you
London
we became more then friends you and me
was it really only last year
you stole my heart away
now it feels so good to be here
and this time I might stay in
London
dodging the rain
and sharing umbrellas
London
reading the Times on saturday picnic's
London
holding hands late at night in a cue
London
so many night been dreaming of days in
London
now that I'm here
I feel so at home in London
all because when I'm here
I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you
now I'm here and I'm feeling so good
baby they'll be dancin' in the street
everybody dancin,dancin
dancin'in the street
dancin'
everybody dancin' in the street
everybody dancin',dancin
dancin in the street
everybody dancin',dancin'
dancin'in the street
for the miracle
a true blue spececl
the miracle is you
the miracle
the miracle is you
for the miracle is you
sing it


2.The Old Songs Medley

Candles burning
glasses are chilled and soon
she'll be by
hope and pray
she'll say that she's willing to give us
another try
and if all those plans I've made
don't melt the lady's heart
I'll put on the old 45's
CHORUS:
and maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
maybe the old lines
will sound new
maybe she'll lay her
head on my shoulder
maybe old feelings
will come through
maybe we'll start to cry
and wonder why
we ever walked away
maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to stay
it's been too long since I've
seen her face light up
when I come home
it's been too many
hours I've wasted staring
at the phone
sweet old songs I'm counting on you
to brink her back to me
I'm tired of listening alone
REPEAT CHORUS
and make her want to stay
I don't want to walk without you , baby
walk without my arm about you , baby
I thought the day you left me behind
That I'd take a stroll and get you right off my mind
but now I find that
I don't want to walk without the sunshine
why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine
oh baby, please come back
or you'll break my heart for me
cause, I don't want to walk with out you
no siree
I take a stroll and get you right off my mind
oh but now I find
There ain't no good in our goodbyin'
true love takes a lot of tryin'
ohh, I'm cryin'
CHORUS:
Let's hang on
to what we've got
don't let go girl
we got a lot
got a lotta love between us
hang on
hang on
hang on
to what we got
you say you're gonna go and call it quits
gonna check it all and break
our love to bits
break it up
(I wish you'd never said it)
break it up
(Oh, no we'll both regret it)
that little chip of diamond on your hand
ain't a fortune baby but you know it stands
for the love
(a love to tie and bind ya)
such a love
(we just can't leave behind us)
baby
don't you go
don't you know
think it over and stay
REPEAT CHORUS
there isn't anything I wouldn't do
I'd pay any price to get in good with you
patch it up
(give me a second turnin')
patch it up
(don't cool off while I'm burning)
you've got me cryin' dyin' at your door
don't shut me out
let me in once more
open up
(your arms I need to hold you)
open up
(your heart, oh girl I love you)
baby
don't you go
don't you know
think it over and stay
Let's hang on
to what we've got
don't let go girl
we got a lot
got a lotta love between us
hang on
hang on
hang on
Let's hang on
to what we've got
don't let go girl
we got a lot
got a lotta love between us
hang on
hang on
hang on
hang on
to what we got
so maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
maybe the old lines
will sound new
maybe she'll lay her
head on my shoulder
maybe old feelings
will come through
maybe we'll start to cry
and wonder why
we ever walked away
maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to stay
and make her want
and make her want to stay


3.Even Now

Lyrics:Marty Panzer
Music:Barry Manilow

Even Now
when there's someone else who cares
when there's someone home who's waiting just for me
even now I think about you as I'm climbing up the stairs
and I wonder what to do so she don't see
that even now
when I know it wasn't right
and I found a better life than what we had
even now I wakeup crying in the middle of the night
and I can't believe it still could hurt so bad
CHORUS:
even now when I have come so far
I wonder where you are
I wonder why it's still so hard without you
even now when I come shining through
I swear I think of you
and how I wish you knew
Even now
even now
when I never hear your name
and the world has changed so much since you been gone
even now I still remember and the feeling's still the same
and the pain inside of me goes on and on
REPEAT CHORUS


4.Stay

Do you remember how we used to be
Before we lost the dream of you and me
From the very start you took my breath away
So tonight let's bring back yesterday
Darlin' stay
Why don't you be with me tonight
Stay
We can make love til the morning light
Baby stay
I can make everything alright
Just tell me what to say
'Cause I really don't want you to go
You used to laugh and say sweet things to me
You made me happy as a man can be
Hold me in your arms like you did then
Make the memory live all over again
Darlin' stay
Why don't you be with me tonight
Stay
We can make love til the morning light
Baby stay
I can make everything alright
Just tell me what to say
'Cause I really don't want you to go
Darlin' Stay
Why don't you be with me tonight
Stay
We can make love til the morning light
Stay
I can make everything alright
Just tell me what to say
'Cause I really don't want you to go
darlin Stay


5.Beautiful Music

Lyrics:Marty Panzer
Music:Barry Manilow

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?
CHORUS:
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
REPEAT CHORUS
And now I laught an dnow 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


6.Bermuda Triangle

Lyrics:Bruce Sussman/Jack Feldman
Music:Barry Manilow

we decide to get away
and have some fun
book a room and catch a flight
for two weeks in the sun
she says, 'Hawaii's too expensive.'
I say, 'Barbados isn't bad.'
She says, 'I'd love to see Bermuda'
And I say, 'Woman, are you mad!'
Bermuda Triangle
It makes people disappear
Bermuda Triangle
Don't go too near
but she
doesn't see my angle
and she thinks I'm being dumb
so Bermuda Triangle
here we come!
Lying with my woman on
the island sand
I look up and see her with
a stranger, hand in hand
I see her sitting on his blanket
I see them going for a swim
and when I run to find my woman
I find her running after him!
Bermuda Triangle
Makes my woman disappear
Bermuda Triangle
dont' go too near
looking
at it from my angle
do you see why I'm so sad
Oh Bermuda Triangle
Very bad!
Lying lost and lonely on
the island sand,
when a lovely stranger says
hello and takes my hand
and soon she's sitting on my blanket
and then we're going for a swim
when I say, 'What about your boyfriend?'
she turns and waves goodbye to him!
Bermuda Triangle
it makes people disappear
Bermuda Triangle
don't go too near
but look
at it from my angle
and you'll see why I'm so glad
Now Bermuda Triangle
Not so bad!


7.Break Down The Door/Who's Been Sleeping In My Bed

I'm not the man I meant to be
fell down a time or two
when luck was lookin' out for me
I missed the knock
and never knew
I let you go
but you can't get away from me again
CHORUS:
Do you want me to plead?
do you want me to cry?
any proof that you need
any promise you'll buy
do you want me to break down the door
do you want me to break down the door
break down the door
you say you saw me lose control
look now I'm in the lead
and you can have me heart and soul
I'm overhauled
and guaranteed
what do you say
why don't you take a chance
on me again
REPEAT CHORUS
Can't say for sure what's comin'
it ain't what's gone before
except we had some damn good times
and I know we both want more
Do you want me to plead?
do you want me to cry?
any proof that you need
any promise you'll buy
do you want me to break
do you want me to break down
do you want me to break down
who's behind that door?
who's behind that door?
what do you want?
something's in the air
I answer the phone and there's nobody there
and your changin' the way that you're wearin your hair
and I wonder
yes I wonder
something's on my mind
the letters you get, cigarettes that I find
and you know I have to be deaf ,dumb and blind
not to wonder
not to wonder
who's been sleeping in my bed
gettin' what I get
when I don't get it
who's been sleeping in my bed
yeah, that's what I said
I just don't get it
who's been sleepin'
who's been sleepin' in my bed
little things I miss
like the ring on your finger, the fire in your kiss
how the hell could the love that we had come to this
and I wonder
yes I wonder
I don't understand
the paperboy winks at the telephone man
and the milkman he smiles when he's shakin' my hand
and I wonder
yes I wonder
who's been sleeping in my bed
gettin' what I get
when I don't get it
who's been sleeping in my bed
yeah, that's what I said
I just don't get it
who's been sleepin'
who's been sleepin' in my bed
who's been sleeping in my bed
gettin' what I get
when I don't get it
who's been sleepin' in my bed
yeah, that's what I said
I just don't get it
who's been sleepin'
who's been sleepin' in my bed
who's been sleepin' in my bed
who's been sleepin' in my bed
who's been sleepin' in my bed
who's been sleepin' in my bed
who's been
you got to tell me
you got to,got to,got to got to tell me,come on
hell I could see it your eyes that you've been seein' other guys
who's been sleepin' in my bed
cause when I come back home I know you haven't been alone
who's been sleepin' in my bed
something's in the air, you know I fell it everywhere
the little things I miss ,I miss the fire in your kiss
who's been sleepin'
who's been sleepin'
who's been sleepin' in my bed


8.Copacabana (At The Copa)

Lyrics:Bruce Sussman/Jack Feldman
Music:Barry Manilow

Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
she would merengue and do the cha-cha
but while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
across the crowded floor, he worked from 8 til 4
they were young and they had each other
who could ask for more?
CHORUS:
At the copa (CO!) Copacabana (Copacabana)
the hottest spot north of Havana (here)
at the copa (CO!) Copacabana
music and passion were always in fashion
At the copa.... they fell in love
His name was Rico
he wore a diamond
he was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there
and when she finished,he called her over
but Rico went a bit to far
Tony sailed across the bar
and then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
there was blood and a single gun shot
but just who shot who?
REPEAT CHORUS
At the copa... she lost her love
Copa...Copacabana... music and passion... always the fashion...
Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl,
but that was 30 years ago, when they used to have a show
now it's a disco, but not for Lola,
still in dress she used to wear,
faded feathers in her hair
she sits there so refined,drinks herself half-blind
she lost her youth and she lost her Tony
now she's lost her mind
REPEAT CHORUS
At the copa... don't fall in love


9.Could It Be Magic/Mandy

Spirit move me
Every time I'm near you
Whirling like a cyclone in my mind
Sweet Melissa
Angel of my lifetime
Answer to all answers
I can find
Baby I love you
Come come come come into my arms
Let me know the wonder of all of you
And baby I want you
now now now and hold on fast
Could this be the magic at last?
I remember all my life
Rainin' down as cold as ice
Shadows of a man,
a face through a window
Cryin' in the night
The night goes in
To mornin' just another day
Happy people pass my way
Lookin' in their eyes
I see a memory
I've never realized
How happy you made me
Oh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without takin'
But I sent you away
Ahh Mandy
well you kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
And I need you today
Ahh Mandy
Yesterday's a dream
Now I face the mornin'
Cryin' on a breeze
The pain is callin'
Ohh Mandy
Well you came and you gave without takin'
But I sent you away
Ahh Mandy
You kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
And I need you today
Ohh Mandy
You came and gave without takin'
But I sent you away
Ohh Mandy
You kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
Oooh baby I love you
Come, come ,come into my arms
Oooh,let me know the wonder of all of you
And baby I need you now
now
now and hold on fast
Could this be the magic at last?


10.London/We'll Meet Again

London
I can't believe it's over so soon
Oh London
Just like before I'm leaving my heart in London
and I know that I'll miss you so much
take care
Oh my love keep in touch
We'll meet again
don't know where
don't know when
but I know we'll meet again
some sunny day
keep smiling through
just like you always do
to the blue skies chase the dark clouds away
so won't you please say 'Hello'
to the friends that I know
tell them I won't be long
they'll be happy to know that as you saw me go
I was singing this song
we'll meet again
don't know where
don't know when
but I know we'll meet again
some sunny day


11.One Voice

Lyrics:Barry Manilow
Music:Barry Manilow

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 aound 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 just 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!
