I've been a-live forever
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the 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
Stanza II
My home lies deep within you
And I've got my own place in your soul
Now when I look out through your ey---es Im
Young again, even tho' I'm very old
Oh, 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, well that's a real find place to start
It's from me, it's for you
It's from you, it's for me
/ / / key of optional I left it in
It's a world wide symphony
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 so------ngs I am
music and I write the song
