Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not
Good enough for anyone
Else to hear
Just sing, sing a song
Why do stars
Fall down from the sky?
Everytime you walk by
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you
Ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, close to you
Ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, close to you
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, close to you
Let's take a lifetime to say
I knew you well
For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know
He's got a ticket to ride
He's got a ticket to ride
He's got a ticket to ride
And he don't care (Baby, baby)
Don't care (Baby, baby)
Baby, baby
Feels like maybe things will be all right
Baby, baby
Your love's made me
Free as a song singin' forever
Only yesterday when I was sad
And I was lonely
You showed me the way to leave
The past and all it's tears behind me
Tomorrow may be even brighter than today
Since I threw my sadness away
Only yesterday
(Guitar Solo)
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
I'll say goodbye to love
No-one ever cared if I should live or die
Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by
And all I know of love is how to live without it
I just can't seem to find it
What lies in the future is a mystery to us all
No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls
There may come a time when I will see that I've been wrong
But for now this is my song
And it's goodbye to love
I'll say goodbye to love
(Guitar Solo Continues)
