I WRITE THE SONGS

Words & Music by Bruce Johnston

I've been alive for ever
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together
I'm music! And I write the songs

Chorus:
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 those young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

My home lies deep within you
And I have my own room in your soul
And we're such good friends when I look out through your windows
You make me young again even though I'm very old

Chorus

Oh my music makes you dance
And gives you spirit to take a chance
And I wrote some rock 'n roll so you'd feel so good
My music's in your heart
And it's a real fine place to start
It's from me, it's through you
It's from you, it's through me
It's a world wide symphony

Repeat chorus until fade
