So It Goes

Perry Como So It Goes Lyrics
1.What's One More Time ?

What's one more time?
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Whisper words of love so soft an' low
It really doesn't matter anymore
Once i fell for them so many times before!

What's one more time?
Even if they're only words to you
They fool me just the way they always do
It doesn't seem to stop me anymore
I've been down this road so many times before!
What's one more time?

Even though i know how it will end
Still i give in every time
If i ever thought i could resist
Why your tender kiss just changed my mind
What's one more time?

< instrumental break >

What's one more time?
Lay down here beside me one more time
Maybe i'm a fool but i don't mind
It really doesn't matter anymore
Once i fell for them so many times before!
What's one more time?

What's one more time?

What's one more time?


2.So It Goes

You're feelin' bad,
You need a friend
It seems that night won't end
Doubts an' fears fill the air
Midnight shadows everywhere . . .

Don't be afraid
The dawn is near
To help you face your fear
You're not alone
We're really all the same
Caught in the game of 'life' we're playin'

So it goes . . . if there's an answer
Then nobody knows
Love's always dancin' just ahead
So hope is never dead somehow it grows

So it goes . . . the sea of mystery
It ebbs an' flows
A priceless gift of old
Oh the magic of a simple rose
That's life an' so it goes . . .

When lonely times weigh on your mind
And hopes are hard to find
Then use the good you've had before
To help you face the world once more
There's more in you than you can see
If only you believe
Dream your dreams an' if they don't come true
You'll still get along, that's life,
Just live it . . .

So it goes . . . if there's an answer
Then nobody knows
Love's always dancin' just ahead
So hope is never dead somehow it grows

So it goes . . . the sea of mystery
It ebbs an' flows
A priceless gift of old
Oh the magic of a simple rose
That's life an' so it goes . . .

3.Here Comes That Song Again

Here comes that song again
Soft in your arms i hear the words begin
They promise this time the melody won't end
Here comes that song again!

There's a tender song inside me
Only your sweet voice can play
I heard it once but it disappeared
On the day you went away!

As time slipped by
I thought that i'd forgotten all the lines
But then last night we met again
And i heard them one more time!

Here comes that song again
Soft in your arms i hear the words begin
They promise this time the melody won't end
Here comes that song again!

< instrumental break >

With the early mornin' raindrops
Dancin' on my window pane
You hold me and i hear my song
Keepin' time with the fallin' rain

Now, i don't know what made you go
Or brought you back last night
I only know my love for you
Is a song that feels so right

Here comes that song again
Soft in your arms i hear the words begin
They promise this time the melody won't end
Here comes that song again!

Here comes that song again
Soft in your arms i hear the words begin
They promise this time
The melody won't end . . .


4.Goodbye For Now(Love Theme From reds')

Yes i know, goodbye for now,
How long? ~ a year, a day?
Yes i love you, yes you're with me,
Here now, next to me, and worlds away!
See i free you, and i'll see you when i see you,
Fine, ok?

Goodbye for now, again
Goodbye until whenever then
We're free, that's what we said we'd be,
At leave to come an' go, you as well as i,
Somehow each 'hello' makes it worth 'goodbye'
. . . for now!

< instrumental break >

Goodbye . . . hmm . . . goodbye


5.Second Time

It's the second time
I know i've seen you here before
It's no coincidence i'm sure
That once again my spirits soar
And the second time is always harder than the first
Forgetting lines that i rehearsed,
I fear the best, i fear the worst

Love is great, it has ambition
Unafraid makes no condition
When i say how much i love you
You'll feel i've known you
A thousand years . . .

A thousand years . . .

. . . a thousand years . . .


6.Jason

This ain't for the quarterback
Who lives upstairs in our house
An' this ain't for the princess
Who's sleepin' down the hall!

This ain't for the other one
Who looks just like her mamma
An' this ain't for the baby
Who's the cutest one of all!

Jason, this is my love for you,
Written down a thousand times
Jason, like the teacher makes you do
When you're bad and outta line . . .

I'm so glad you're mine!

It hurts me when they tease you
'cause you're mind's a little slower
I'd like to take the sadness
An' turn em into joy!

I watch you so hard to do
What usually comes easy
After all, to me,
You're such a special little boy!

Jason, this is my love for you,
Written, written down a thousand times
Jason, like the teacher makes you do
When you're bad and outta line . . .

I'm so glad you're mine!

Jason . . . jason!


7.As My Love For You

Standing here your hand in mine
Let me tell you one more time
Nothin' could as brightly shine
As my love for you!

Moon an' stars are out tonight
Feel their glow, see their light
Still they never shine so bright
As my love for you!

And when i hold you ( and ) feel you close to me
I know our sweet love will always, always be
And all the mountains, hills and rivers too
Won't last as long or be as strong
As my love for you!

< instrumental break >

And when i hold you an' feel you close to me
I know our sweet love will always, always be
And all the mountains, hills and rivers too
Won't last as long or be as strong
As my love for you!

And when i hold you
An' feel you close to me
I know our sweet love
Will always, always be . . .


8.Fancy Dancer

See the clouds floating by
In the sky without notice
Whispering 'i know you'
And the tears in my eyes
Never dried from the inside
What am i to do?

I am wanting to find a way
I am needing an answer
I am waiting to see the day
When i'm not just a fancy dancer

Is there no place i can go
Is there not a friendly ear?
I am wanting to say 'i love you'
Wanting to say that i need you
Wanting to hear that you love me too!

< instrumental break >

Every day is just like the last one
Nothin's ever new
And i know today will be like tomorrow
Nothin' i can do

I am wanting to find a way
I am needing an answer
I am wanting to see the day
When i'm not just a fancy dancer

Is there no place i can go
Is there not a friendly ear?
I am wanting to say 'i love you'
Wanting to say that i need you
Wanting to hear that you love me too!

I am wanting to find a way
I am needing an answer
I am wanting to see the day
When i'm not just a fancy dancer

Is there no place i can go?


9.You are so beautiful

Written:Billy Preston/Bruce Fisher

You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me

Can't you see
You are everything I hope for
You are everything I need
You are so beautiful to me
