Gloria Gaynor

Somewhere there's music
how faint the tune!
Somewhere there's heaven
how high the moon!
rhere is no moon above when love is far away
too

Till it comes true that you love me as I love you.

Somewhere there's music
it's where you are

Somewhere there's heaven
how near
how far!
The brightest night would shine if you would come to me soon

Until you will
how still my aching heart
How high the moon.

Somewhere there's music
it's where you are
. . .

Somewhere there's music
music in the air
Oh
I love this heaven when you're near
I wanna hear the music
I wanna be where you are.

Ah ahhh party party
Ah ahhh party party
Ah ahhh party party
Ah ahhh party party

Love, sweet love won't you be good to me?
You could set me free
Come on, set me free
We could dance 'neath the pale moonlight
Feeling good tonight
Feeling good tonight

Please somebody's got to get me to the action
Some satisfaction is what I've been searching for
Got to find myself a happy situation
Some celebration
Somebody who calls for more

Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?

Hey hey
Get down

It'd be nice to realize a little romance
I could dig some slow dance
I could dig some girl-meets-boy
Can't put too much time in searching for some reason
Must be the season
For doin' that jump for joy

Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?

Love sweet love won't you be good to me?
You could set me free
Come on, set me free
We could dance 'neath the pale moonlight
Feeling good tonight
Feeling good tonight

I'm a person with a passion for some livin'
Can't help givin' my body a real good time
I'm a sucker for the music and the laughter
I know right after
That lovin' is soon sublime

Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?

Hey hey
Get down (Anybody)
Get down get down (wanna party)
Get down get down
Get down (Anybody wanna party)
Get down get down
Get down get down
Get down

Anybody wanna party down tonight? (Anybody)
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party down tonight?
Anybody wanna party?
Anybody wanna party?

Ah ahhh party party
Ah ahhh party party

Baby, don't understand
Why we can't just hold on to each other's hands?
This time might be the last if fear unless
I make it all too clear I need you so, ohh

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in
Take these broken wings

Baby, I think tonight
We can take what was wrong and make it right
Baby, it's all I know that you're half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole, I need you so.

So take these broken wings
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in
Yeah, yeah

Let us in
Let us in

Baby, it's all I know that you're half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So take these broken wings
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in

Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly, learn to live and love so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up for us and let us in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

Baby, don't understand
Why we can't just hold on to each other's hands?
This time might be the last if fear unless
I make it all too clear I need you so, ohh

The book of love will open up for us and let us in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

I feel so unsure,
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor.
As the music dies
Something in your eyes,
Calls to mind a silver screen,
And all its sad goodbyes.

[Chorus]
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have done my rhythm.
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool.
I should have known better then to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I'd been given.
So I'm never gonna dance again.
The way I danced with you.

Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend.
To the heart and mind
If your answer's kind
There's no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you find.

[Chorus]

What am I without your love?

Tonight the music seems so loud,
I wish that we could lose this crowd.
Maybe it's better this way
We've hurt each other with the things we want to say.
We could have been so good together
We could have lived forever
But no, who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay.

[Chorus]

Now that you're gone
Was what I did so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?

I feel so unsure,
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor.
As the music dies
Something in your eyes,
Calls to mind a silver screen,
And all its sad goodbyes.

[Chorus]
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have done my rhythm.
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know you're not a fool.
I should have known better then to cheat a friend,
And waste a chance that I'd been given.
So I'm never gonna dance again.
The way I danced with you.

Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend.
To the heart and mind
If your answer's kind
There's no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you find.

[Chorus]

We've hurt each other with the things we want to say.

But no, who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay.

Was what I did so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?

Let me tell you 'bout that jive type
that jive type
Casanova Brown

I met him at a party
He said the sweetest things when he hit on me
Wrapped up in his arms
I was blinded by his charm and I couldn't see

Like the story of little red riding hood
The big bad wolf was up to
Up to no good, woo, no

That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown
He hit on me and he'll hit on you
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown

I was lonely and naive
I guess that's why I believed every word he says
It felt so good to hear
Every time he said he cared it went straight to my head

He loved me and left me
But I can't deny
His love was so doggone good
I still, I still love that guy, ooh, [oh no] hey

That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown
He hit on me and he'll hit on you, watch out
That jive type,that jive type, ooh
Casanova Brown
Let me tell you 'bout that jive type
that jive type
Casanova Brown
That jive type,that jive type,
Casanova Brown

I was sittin' there mindin' my business
Feelin' good, checkin' things out
Sippin' on little wine [jive type, that jive type]
Then I spotted
Super cool dude cross the room diggin' on me
I tried to pretend like I didn't even see him
But he was so fine
He took my hand and started to dancin'
I know he felt me fallin' for him
'Cause he kept holdin' me tighter and tighter, ooh
Sure was nice
Girl, my head was all turned around, oh
I didn't know what I was gettin' into, ooh, ow

Up to no good, oh no

That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown

Like the story of little red riding hood
The big bad wolf was up to
Up to no good, woo, oh

That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown
That jive type,that jive type
Casanova Brown

Many years ago my dad said, 'honey
Lady luck may never come your way
If it's love you want not only money'
This is what my daddy used to say

Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself
Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

Waitin' around for someone who can help you
Oh, someone who can help you find your way
Then if you think there's no one you can turn to
Well, there's someone just a lookin' glass away

Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself
Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

Wishin' and hopin' for your fortune
Prayin' that you'll see your lucky day
[prayin' that you'll see your lucky day]
If you're lookin' for some inspiration
This is what my daddy used to say

Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself
Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

[prayin' that you'll see your lucky day]

Do-do-do
Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself
Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself
Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

Well, if you want it, go out and get it
You got to do it yourself, do-do-do, do it yourself

It's funny how love goes
'Cause I know this could never work out
But honey, how love grows
Even though there's no reason to doubt

This can never be
You keep saying, it's wrong
Neither one of us is free
Still I want to hold on

When even a fool would let go
'Cause he knows that there's no use in trying
Even a child would say no

When he knows that he'll end up crying
Tell me now, is it wise holdin' you
Even a fool would let go?

Love has no reason
Like the words in a song that don't rhyme
My love has no season
I just know that it's there all the time

Maybe, just you and me
I can't believe that it's wrong
Thinking about you and me
Just makes me want to hold on

When even a fool would let go
'Cause he knows that there's no use in trying
Even a child would say no

When he knows that he'll end up crying
Tell me now, is it wise holdin' you
Even a fool would let go?

Tell me now, is it wise holdin' you
When even a fool would let go?

Feel, feel, feel

Feel so real
I feel so real
I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Oh, I feel so nice
With you here by my side
If I just do the best that I can do
It seems that's enough for you

The little things mean so much
A smile or a joyful touch
That push that keeps me going strong
To know that I belong

And I feel so real
I feel so real
I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Hey, feel so real
I feel so real
Oh, I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Love is such a wonderful thing
The angels sing when freedom reigns
Freedom from the chains
That hold us back from harmony

I'm right here on my knees
To thank you for the air that I breath
I thank you for the life that you have saved
That's why I've got to say

Feel so real
I feel so real
Oh, I feel so real
And I owe it all to you, you

Hey, feel so real
I feel so real
I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Feel so real
Feel so real
Feel so real

Feel so real
Feel so real
Feel so real

Feel, feel, feel

Feel so real
I feel so real
I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Oh, I feel so nice
With you here by my side
If I just do the best that I can do
It seems that's enough for you

The little things mean so much
A smile or a joyful touch
That push that keeps me going strong
To know that I belong

And I feel so real
I feel so real
I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Hey, feel so real
I feel so real
Oh, I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Love is such a wonderful thing
The angels sing when freedom reigns
Freedom from the chains
That hold us back from harmony

I'm right here on my knees
To thank you for the air that I breath
I thank you for the life that you have saved
That's why I've got to say

Feel so real
I feel so real
Oh, I feel so real
And I owe it all to you, you

Hey, feel so real
I feel so real
I feel so real
And I owe it all to you

Feel so real
Feel so real

Feel so real
Feel so real
Feel so real

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

Frosty the snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe
And a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the snowman
Is a fairy tale, they say
He was made of snow
But the children know
How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in
That old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around

Oh, Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say
He could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

Frosty the snowman
Knew the sun was hot that day
So he said, "Let's run
And we?ll have some fun now
Before I melt away?

Down to the village
With a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there
All around the square
Saying, "Catch me if you can"

He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler, "Stop"

Oh, Frosty the snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye
Saying, "Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day"

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go

Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

You said you'd never love another
Sweet words, empty promises
You swore you'd always be my lover
Look close, look into my eyes
You will realize...
My heart just ain't for hire
Times change, a new day dawned
I ain't got time for your whim and desire
Look close, look into my eyes
You will realize (Oh oh oh oh)

Chorus:
You want my love but there's nothing on
I wanna give but the feeling's gone
We used to be right, baby don't take it wrong
But you've been gone, gone, gone
Gone too long

While you were away, things got turned around
I found somebody who won't bring me down
No never again
No, look into my eyes you will realize (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

(Chorus)

(While you were away) Oh, I learned to smile again
(While you were away) Oh, I learned to laugh again
(While you were away) Oh, baby everything's changed
For better, I got it together

(Can't change the way that I feel
This time my heart says it's real)

(Chorus 2x)

Let me hear a little backingtrack

I'm giving it up
I'm giving it up

I know you're wondering where I've been
Sweet songs of love got me comig in
Wanted to leave yeah, just walk away
But this is real and I'm here to stay
So afraid of being sad and blue
Talked to myself and said I'm over you
But now it's time for me to make you see
These chains of love got a hold on me

Chorus:
I never felt this way before
Can't get enough, want more and more
Love will keep together
Got to be forever
Got to be forever

Never knew love would make me feel this way
You make me happy and I'm gonna stay
Whenever life was getting out of hand
I turned to you and you would understand
You lift me up when I'm feeling down
I got my feet back on solid ground
You make me smile when I wanna cry
I'm gonna love you 'til the day I die

(Chorus)

I'm giving it up
I'm giving it up
And I'm here to stay

(Chorus repeat till fade)

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Oh, somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you

Somewhere there's music
It's where you are
Oh, somewhere there's heaven
How near, how far
The brightest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will
Ooh, how still
My aching heart
How high the moon

(Somewhere there's music)
(It's where you are)
(Somewhere there's heaven)
(How near, how far)
The brightest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will
Ooh, how still
My aching heart
How high the moon

Somewhere there's music, music in the air
Oh, and I love this heaven, heaven when you're near
Oh, when you're near
I wanna hear the music
I know it's where you are
Please let me hear it

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Oh, somewhere there's heaven

There is no moon above

It's where you are
Oh, somewhere there's heaven
How near, how far
The brightest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will

Please let me hear it

I am what I am
I am my own special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook or the ovation
It's my world
That I want to have a little pride in
My world
And it's not a place I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn
Till you can say
I am what I am

I am what I am
I don't want praise, I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it's noise, I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not try to see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham
Till you can shout out
I am what I am

I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces
It's one life and there's no return and no deposit
One life so it's time to open up your closet
Life's not worth a damn till you can shout out
I am what I am

(This stanza ist not in the 3:52 Version)

Give me the hook or the ovation
It's my world
That I want to have a little pride in
My world
And it's not a place I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn
Till you can say
I am what I am

I am what I am
I don't want praise, I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it's noise, I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not try to see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham
Till you can shout out
I am what I am

I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces
It's one life and there's no return and no deposit
One life so it's time to open up your closet
Life's not worth a damn till you can shout out
I am what I am

(This stanza ist not in the 3:52 Version)
I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces
It's one life and there's no return and no deposit
One life so it's time to open up your closet
Life's not worth a damn till you can shout out
I am what I am

I am, I am, I am useful
I am, I am, I am true
I am, I am somebody
I am as good as you, ah ha
Ah ha
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, yes I am
Ah ah ah ah, ah I am
Doo doo doo doo... I am
I am, I am

I am what I am
I am my own special creation
so come take a look
give me the hook
or the ovation
It's my world that I want to have a little pride in.
My world and it's not a place I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn
till you can say
I am what I am

I am what I am
I don't want praise, I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
some thinks it's noise
I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not try to see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham till you can shout out
I am what I am

I am what I am
And what I am
Needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace
sometimes the deuces
It's one life and there's no return and no deposit
one life so its time to open up your closet
life's not worth a damn 'til you can shout out
I am what I am

I am what I am
and what i am needs no excuses
I deal my own deck

It's one life and theres no return and no deposit

Song Title: I never Knew
Artist&nbsp;: Gloria Gaynor

It's really been a long time
Since I let somebody hold me
Since I felt safe in somebody's arms, emm emm
You were a good friend I could confide in
But after all the lies he told me
I couldn't let nobody in my heart
I was torn apart
All this time you've been right here
He's been doing nothing but wrong
And though the best thing in my life was
Here with me all along

Chorus:
I never knew
Right beside me there was an angel
I never knew
You'd give my heart the wings to fly
Because of you
Everything in my life is changing
Turning it to
The kind of heaven that I never Knew

He kissed away my tears
And now they've disappeared
You made me feel safe in somebody's arms
You're the kind that can do me no harm
Can't let up
Can't tell anybody that you're not from around here
They don't know that you're an angel
But now it's all so clear

Chorus
I never knew
Right beside me there was an angel
I never knew
You'd give my heart the wings to fly
Because of you
Everything in my life is changing
Turning it to
The kind of heaven that I never Knew

Is this a dream
Are you for real
You got me honey
Feeling things that I never thought I'd feel
You taught me love
Don't have to break my heart in two
That's just one more of those things
That I never, never knew
I never knew
Right beside me
There was an angel
I never, never knew (that my heart could fly)
It's all because of you baby
My life is changing
Turning it to
The kind of heaven that I never knew

I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older

Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
I through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is

At first I was afraid,
I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side;
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And so you're back,
from outta space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second you'd be
back to bother me

Go now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now
Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble?
Think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not! I'll survive
Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I wil survive. Hey, hey

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept tryin' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feelin' sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
And so you feel like droppin' in
And just expect me to be free
Now I'm savin' all my love for someone who's lovin' me

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong

Go now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now
Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble?
Think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not! I'll survive
Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I wil survive. Hey, hey

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept tryin' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feelin' sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
And so you feel like droppin' in
And just expect me to be free
Now I'm savin' all my love for someone who's lovin' me

At first I was afraid,
I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side;
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And so you're back,
from outta space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second you'd be
back to bother me

Go now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now
Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble?
Think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not! I'll survive
Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I wil survive. Hey, hey
