I WRITE THE SONGS

I’ve been alive 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.

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’m young again, even though I’m very old.

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.

Oh my music makes you dance and gives your 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 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.

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.

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.  I am music and I write the songs.
