Lyrics

[00:17.340] I've been alive forever,
[00:22.460] and I wrote the very first song.
[00:29.450] I put the words and the melodies together,
[00:35.060] I am music, and I write the songs.
[00:43.190] I write the songs that make the whole world sing.
[00:50.090] I write the songs of love and special things.
[00:56.640] I write the songs that make the young girls cry.
[01:03.690] I write the songs, I write the songs.
[01:15.140] My home lies deep within you,
[01:20.690] and I've got my own place in your sole.
[01:27.410] Now, when I look out through your eyes,
[01:33.560] I'm you'g again, even though I'm very old.
[01:41.230] I write the songs that make the whole world sing.
[01:47.860] I write the songs of love and special things.
[01:54.720] I write the songs that make the young girls cry.
[02:01.690] I write the songs, I write the songs.
[02:07.560] Oh my music makes you dance
[02:10.930] and gives your spirit to take a chance,
[02:15.010] and I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move.
[02:20.740] Music fills your heart,
[02:23.420] well, that's a real fine place to start.
[02:26.610] It's from me it's for you,
[02:28.160] it's from you, it's from me,
[02:29.920] it's a world wide symphony.
[02:34.820] I write the songs that make the whole world sing.
[02:41.500] I write the songs of love and special things.
[02:48.130] I write the songs that make the young girls cry.
[02:54.660] I write the songs, I write the songs.
[03:01.340] I write the songs that make the whole world sing.
[03:07.710] I write the songs of love and special things.
[03:13.900] I write the songs that make the young girls cry.
[03:20.280] I write the songs, I write the songs.
[03:29.030] I am music, and I write the songs.
