Barbra Streisand - The Man That Got Away lyrics
[Barbra Streisand - The Man That Got Away lyrics]
The night is bitter
The stars have lost their glitter
The winds grow colder suddenly you're older
And all because of the man that got away
No more his eager call
The writing's on the wall
The dreams you've dreamed have
All gone astray the man that won you
Has run off and undone you
That great beginning
Has seen the final inning
Don't know what happened
It's all a crazy game
No more that old time thrill
For you've been through the mill
And never a new love will be the same
Good riddance, good-bye
Every trick of his, you're on to
But fools will be fools
And where's he gone to?
The road gets rougher
It's lonelier and tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow he may turn up
There's just no let up
But live lone night and day
Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A one man woman looking for the man
That got away the man that got away
Barbra "liza, that was for your mom!"
One of the nice things about growing older is
Realizing that you can
Survive life's disappointments
And you also realize that you
Cannot look to someone
Else for your happiness of course it sc
Up the songs you can't sing you
Can't sing those dependent victim
Songs anymore with the same conviction
You know for example
You can't sing: "i can be happy i can be sad
I can be good can be bad
It all depends on you? can't do that, no
No another nice thing about growing older is
That you finally begin to appreciate
Yourself flaws and all and this next
Song has taken me i know how many hours
On I don't know how many couches to be
Able to sing and really mean it
The stars have lost their glitter
The winds grow colder suddenly you're older
And all because of the man that got away
No more his eager call
The writing's on the wall
The dreams you've dreamed have
All gone astray the man that won you
Has run off and undone you
That great beginning
Has seen the final inning
Don't know what happened
It's all a crazy game
No more that old time thrill
For you've been through the mill
And never a new love will be the same
Good riddance, good-bye
Every trick of his, you're on to
But fools will be fools
And where's he gone to?
The road gets rougher
It's lonelier and tougher
With hope you burn up
Tomorrow he may turn up
There's just no let up
But live lone night and day
Ever since this world began
There is nothing sadder than
A one man woman looking for the man
That got away the man that got away
Barbra "liza, that was for your mom!"
One of the nice things about growing older is
