Barry Manilow - (I'll Be With You) In Apple Blossom Time - lyrics

I'll be with you in apple blossom time
I'll be with you to change your name to mine
One day in May I'll come and say
Happy the bride the sunshine's on today
What a wonderful wedding day there will be
What a wonderful day for you and me
Church bells will chime
You will be mine
In apple blossom time
What a wonderful wedding day there will be
One day in May
What a very very wonderful day
For you and me dear
Church bells will chime
You will be mine
In apple, in apple blossom time

Barry Manilow - (There's No Place Like) Home For The Holidays - lyrics

Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze
For the holidays you can't beat home, sweet home
I met a man who lives in Tennessee
And he was headin' for
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie
From Pennsylvania folks are trav'lin' down
To Dixie's sunny shore
From Atlantic to Pacific, gee,
The traffic is teriffic!
Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze
For the holidays you can't beat home, sweet home
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly gaze
For the holidays you can't beat home
Holidays you can't beat home
Holidays you can't beat home,sweet home

Barry Manilow - A Linda Song - lyrics

Music: Barry Manilow
Lyrics: Enoch Anderson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He never wrote a song for Linda
He wrote as though he lived alone
He wrote of dreams that end
And of sad brave men
Inventing worlds he'd never known
But he never wrote a song for Linda
And she was right there all along
Loved him back to life
When his luck ran low
But he never wrote a Linda song
He nearly broke his heart at writing
Linda kept him from despair
Standin' by his side
through the hungry days
But he hardly seemed to see her there
And he never wrote a song for Linda
And she was right there all along
The one real thing in his crazy world
And he never wrote a Linda song.
When the bills piled up
He couldn't pay
He couldn't dream no more
So he hitched a ride and he rode away
And he left a note for Linda by the door
By the door
When times got rough he'd phone her
Once or twice she took the call
Then she changed her number and she turned her head
And Linda never looked back at all
He'll never write a song for Linda
And she was right there all along
All he knows is no one understands
And he never wrote a Linda song
No he never wrote a Linda song

Barry Manilow - A Little Travelling Music, Please - lyrics

On the road so long and lonely
can't believe I'm headed home to stay
God I miss my one and only
a little traveling music please
seems we're always seperating
still she doesn't let me lose my way
home is anywhere she's waiting
a little traveling music please
I may forget how much I care
but once I've left her laughter
two and three days after
I'm aware how much I miss her there
this time I'll stay home forever
hold her close and turn the world away
even if it's not forever
it it'll keep me from unraveling
a little traveling music please
two and three days after
I'm aware how much I miss her there
this time I'll stay home forever
hold her close and turn the world away
even if it's not forever
she's going to keep me from unraveling
a little traveling music please
a little traveling music please

Barry Manilow - (They Long To Be) Close To You - lyrics

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon-dust
In your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon-dust
In your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you
(Ah, aahh, aahh) Close to you

Barry Manilow - 15 Minutes - lyrics

Can’t call it a life
Knowing what I got inside of me
Working a job
That any poor slob could fill
Watching the fireworks fly up
Out of some fairground
Over the hill
Fifteen minutes
Don’t let me be an untold story
Fifteen minutes
A nothing name
That no one ever knew
Fifteen minutes
Light the fuse
I’ll fly my way to glory
Comin’ through
Comin’ through
Fifteen minutes
That’s me within a blaze of glory
Fifteen minutes
A shooting star
Among the precious few
Fifteen minutes
Here I come
I’ll be the leading story
Comin’ through
Comin’ through
There’s somebody else
Taking a turn on the spotlight
Feeling that love
And spinning above the clouds
Here I am just a nobody
Longing for hot light
Lost in the crowd
Fifteen minutes
Don’t let me be an untold story
Fifteen minutes
A song so low
That no one ever heard
Fifteen minutes
Make a deal
I’d sell my guts for glory
Say the word
Say the word
Just gimme my shot
Riding the world like a rocket
Painting the sky
For all of those eyes below
Wouldn’t I fly the farthest
Couldn’t you clock it
Wouldn’t I go?
Fifteen minutes
Don’t let me be an untold story
Fifteen minutes
Break the mold
And get me up to speed
Fifteen minutes
Light the fuse
And I’ll lift off to glory
All I need
All I need
Fifteen minutes
That’s me within a blaze of glory
Fifteen minutes
I’d sell my soul
In order to succeed
Fifteen minutes
They’ll be tellin’
My amazing story
All I need

Barry Manilow - A Gift Of Love - lyrics

Here in this sighlent night
Now all the world is right
As if we'sundenley been giving
A gift of love
A gift of love
Warm as the fire glow
Soft as the falling snow
A pre..... micael we live in
This wonder of a gift of love
Night falls
At this coldest time of the year
Love calls
Here where I love you so
Now as our blessings grow
We shear the greatest gift we'll ever know
A gift of love
A gift of love

Barry Manilow - A Little Traveling Music, Please - lyrics

On the road so long and lonely
Can't believe I'm headed home to stay
God I miss my one and only

Barry Manilow - (Why Don't We Try) A Slow Dance - lyrics

Why don't we try a slow dance
It's all going by us to fast
Oh, why don't we try a slow dance
And maybe this moment will last
All night long we've been dancing
Dancing too far away
All night long I've been waiting for them
To play a slow one
Why don't we try a slow dance
Before it all comes to a close
We'll see how it feels
And see where the feeling goes
Oh why don't we try a slow dance and then
Who knows
It's all goin' by us to fast
And maybe this moment will last
All night long we've been dancing
Dancin' to far away
All night long I 've been wateing for them
To play a slow one
Why don't we try a slow dance
Before it all comes to a close
We'll see how it fells
And see where the fellin' goes
Oh why don't we try a slow dance
And then who knows
Then who knows
Who knows
Who knows

Barry Manilow - 15 Minutes (Reprise) - lyrics

Can’t call it a life
Hangin’ at home with a scrapbook
They say I’m over the hill
A loser at twenty-three
Everything’s gonna be alright
Look at that spotlight
Waitin’ for me
Fifteen minutes
No this is not the final story
Fifteen minutes
This time I’m gonna touch the sky
Fifteen minutes
Been there once
I know the road to glory
Watch me fly!
