I'm Glad You're Here With Me

Neil Diamond I'm Glad You're Here With Me Lyrics
1.God Only Knows

I may not always love you
But as long as there are stars above you
You'll never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

'cause god only knows what i'd be without you

And if you should ever leave me
The world would still go on, believe me
And the world could show nothing to me
But what good will living do me

God only knows what i'd be without you
God only knows what i'd be without you

And if you should ever leave me
Life would still go on, believe me
And the world could show nothing to me
So what good will living do me

God only knows what i'd be without you
God only knows what i'd be without you
God only knows what i'd be without you
God only knows what i'd be without you


2.Let Me Take You In My Arms Again

You'll be better off, i know
With another kind of man
All i've got is what i feel
And what i feel is what i am

But let me take you in my arms again
Let me take you in my arms and then
Let me see behind your smile
Let me love you like a child
Let me take you in my arms

I'm like a train that's rollin' on a track
Like a train that's got no turnin' back
Let me keep you from the storm
Let me make you safe and warm
Let me take you in my arms

You'll be better off, i know
With another kind of man
All i've got is what i feel
But what i feel is what i am

Let me take you in my arms again
Won't be easy, but i'll learn to bend
Like a ship without a sail
On a sea without a trail
Let me take you in my arms

You'll be better off, i know
With another kind of man
All i've got is what i feel
But what i feel is what i am

Let me take you in my arms again
Won't be easy, but i'll learn to bend
Like a ship without a sail
On a sea without a trail
Let me take you in my arms

But let me take you in my arms again
Let me take you in my arms and then
Let me see behind your smile
Let me love you like a child
Let me take you in my arms

Let me take you in my arms again
Let me take you in my arms and then
Let me see behind your smile
Let me love you like a child
Let me take you in my arms

Let me take you in my arms again


3.Once In A While

Once in a while i would call asking lonely to find you there
Once in a while i would call asking only to know
And once you were mine long ago when the evening was warm and
free
Once you were mine when the evening was full with that glow
And who could have known we'd have flown far away from the way
we were
Knowing the way we were
Once in a while, once in a while

And who could have known we'd have flown far away from the way
we were
Knowing the way we were
Once in a while, once in a while

And who would have known, we'd have flown like two birds to
another place
Only to find our space
Once in a while, once in a while


4.Let The Little Boy Sing

Take you back to a cotton field
In the heart of lousiana
Little boy about nine years old
Sings a song in the heat of the day
Mama cried when her little boy sang
She knew he could be someone special
Mama cried 'cause the way that it was
He would only be wasted away

Then his mama would pray
And every night she would say
Help my boy began
Take the lord by the hand

Let the little boy sing
Got a feeling that takes you home
Got a melody of his own
Let the little boy sing

Let the little boy try
Let the little boy buy
He can take you along
On the wings of his song
Let the little boy fly

Take you back to new orleans
Where the music wakes up with the city
To the bars by the railroad cars
On the neon side of town
Sang a song on the city streets
And people began to listen
Southern boy, sing your southern song
Take it like no one aound

Nobody walked by
Without feelin' high
Never heard it before
They'd be calling for more

Let the little boy sing
Got a melody of his own
Got a feeling that takes you home
Let the little boy sing
And let the little boy fly
Let the little boy try
He can take you along
On the wings of his song
Let the little boy fly

Let him take you away

(ladies and gentlemen
Super?? are proud to introduce
The little boy with a soul of a star)

Let the little boy sing
Got a melody of his own
Got a feeling that takes you home
Let the little boy sing
Let the little boy try
Let the little boy buy
He can take you along
On the wings of his song
Let the little boy fly


5.I'm Glad You're Here(With Me Tonight)

We'll there's no need explaining
It doesn't really matter anyway
So you let the rain in
And being sorry's not enough to say
And though you'll never make it right
I'm glad you're here with me tonight

Hey babe, the sunshine's on you
Even though the skies are dark and gray
Well, if i have to miss you
I'd just as soon begin some other day
And though you'll never make it right
I'm glad you're here with me tonight

Out there in the storm
Not everyone is safe and warm

Now the leaves are falling
I guess they didn't have much more to say
And with the winter calling
It's gonna be a long and lonely day
And though you'll never make it right
I'm glad you're here with me tonight

Cause out there in the storm
Not everyone is safe and warm
Oh, no

And if we never make it right
I'm glad you're here with me tonight
If we never make it right
I'm glad you're here with me tonight
So glad to have you, babe (stay right here tonight)
So glad baby (oh, no)
(feels like old times)


6.Lament In D Minor/dance Of The Sabres

(instrumental piece)

Sabre dance
When death plays the game of chance
Dance sabre, dance

Oh, sweet romance
The flashing of sabres dance
Dance sabre dance

Dance, sabre dance
Come on now
Dance, sabre dance

Sabre dance
When death plays the game of chance
The flashing of sabres dance
For honor and sweet romance
Come dance, sabre dance


7.Desiree

Written:neil diamond

It was the third of june
On that summer's day
Well i became a man
At the hands of a girl
Almost twice my age
And she came to me
Just like a morning sun
And it wasn't so much
Her words as such
As the way they were sung
It was the way they were sung

Desiree
Oh, desiree
There i was found
By the sweet passion sound
Of your loving song
Time was right, the night was long
Remember, desiree
Oh, desiree
Somehow i knew
I could only have you
'til the morning light
If only for that single night
Sweet desiree, you make it right

Then came the fourth of june
On that sleepless night
Well i tossed and i turned
While the thought of her burned
Up and down my mind
For she was there and gone
Without one regret
But she continues on
Like the words of a song
I could not forget
I could not forget

Desiree
Oh, desiree
There i was found
By the sweet passion sound
Of your loving song
Time was right, the night was long
Remember, desiree
Oh, desiree
And though somehow i knew
I could only have you
'til the morning light
The night was long, the time was right
Do you remember desiree


8.As If

It was more than a matter of knowin'
Or the words that were finally said
It was more than the comin' or goin'
Or the things that were made in your head
It was more than a matter of wantin'
And needin' the foolish things i gave

As if i ever cared to make you cry
Could've been right to know that it was't
Yet you knew i was sorry
I dared to make you cry
As if i would
As if i could
As if i tried

But the words that were finally spoken
Like the thoughts that remain in my soul
And hearts that were finally broken
And embrace that never be hold
And the words that i never told you
But i told you, the foolish things i said

As if i ever cared to make you cry
I could've been right to know that i wasn't
Yet you knew that i was sorry
I dared to make you cry
As if i would
As if i could
As if i tried

As if i ever cared to make you cry
I could've been right to know that i wasn't
Yet you knew that i was sorry
I dared to make you cry
Could have been strong but the words didn't rhyme
And the things that would come between us


9.You Don't Bring Me Flowers

Featuring:Brabra Streisand
(duet with brabra streisand)
written:neil diamond, alan bergman and marilyn bergman

You don't bring me flowers
You don't sing me love songs
You hardly talk to me anymore
When you come thru the door
At the end of the day

I remember when
You couldn't wait to love me
Used to hate to leave me
Now after lovin' me late at night
When it's good for you
And you're feelin' alright
Well you just roll over
And turn out the light
And you don't bring me flowers anymore

It used to be so natural
To talk about forever
But 'used to be's' don't count anymore
They just lay on the floor
'til we sweep them away

And baby, i remember
All the things you taught me
I learned how to laugh
And i learned how to cry
Well i leared how to love
Even learned how to lie
You'd think i could learn
How to tell you goodbye
'cause you don't bring me flowers anymore


10.Free Man In Paris

if i had my way, i'd walk thru that door and wander
Down the champs elysees
Going from cafe to cabaret

The way i see it, i just can't win it
Everybody's in it for their own game
You can't please them all
There's always somebody callin' you down
And i do my best and i do good business
As a lot of people asking for my time
They're trying to get ahead
And try and be a good friend of mine

I was a free man in paris, i was unfettered and alive
There was nobody to call me up for favours
Noone's future to decide
You know i'd go back there tomorrow
But for the work i'm taking on
??? star makin' machinery
Behind the popular song

I deal in dreamers and telephone schemers
Lately i wonder what i do it for
If i had my way, i'd walk thru that door and wander
Down the champs elysees
Going from cafe to cabaret
Thinkin' how i feel when i find
That very good friend of mine
