I've been alive forever I wrote the very first songs I put the words and the melody together I am music, and I write the songs I write the songs that make this whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make all the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs My home lies deep within you And I found my own place in your soul But when I look out through your eyes I am young again, even though I'm very old I write the songs that make this whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make all the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs There could never be (You're giving it right away, you know that?) A portrait of my love For nobody could paint a dream You will never see a portrait of my love For those miracles are never seen Anyone who sees her, soon forgets the Mona Lisa It would take I know, a Michaelangelo And he would all glow of dawn that paints the sky above To try and paint a portrait of my love Walk away, please go Before you throw your life away A life that I could share for just a day We should have met some years ago For your sake I say Walk away, just go Walk away, and live A life that's full With no regret Don't look back at me Just try to forget Why build a dream that cannot come true? So be strong, reach the stars now Walk away, walk on If I heard your voice I'd beg you to stay Don't say a word Just run, run away Hmm, goodbye, my love My tears will fall Now that you've gone I can't help but cry But I must go on I'm sad that I, after searching so long Knew, I love you, but told you Walk away, walk on Walk on Oh, my music makes you dance Gives your spirit to take a chance I wrote some rock 'n' roll, till 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 from me It's a worldwide symphony I write the songs that make this whole world sing I write the songs of love and special things I write the songs that make all the young girls cry I write the songs, I write the songs I sing the songs that make all the whole world sing I sing the songs of love and special things I sing the songs that make all the young girls cry I sing the songs, I sing the songs 'Cause I am music, I sing the songs
