I Write The Songs

[Originally by Barry Manilow] I've been alive forever And I wrote the very first song I put the words and melodies together I am music and 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 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 am young again even though I'm very old [repeat chorus] 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 and that's a real fine place to start It's from me, it's for you, it's from you, it's for me It's a worldwide symphony [repeat chorus] Yeah! I write the songs that make the whole world scream! 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 (music) and I write the songs Yeah
