Big City Blues - Barry Manilow, Tony

Mel:

Much of my life has been spiced with romance

Barry:

Too many bedrooms I’ve slept in by chance

Mel:

Drownin' out my sorrow

Barry:

Longin' for tomorrow

Both:

Caught up in the big city blues

Barry:

Rain pourin' down from a cold winter sky

Mel:

Don’t wanna smile and I’m too sad to cry

Barry:

Clouds hangin' above me

Mel:

No one there to love me

Both:

Guess it’s just the big city blues

Barry/Mel:

Someday I’ll find me the dream that I’m after

I’ll know her with only a glance

Mel/Barry:

She’ll make me smile

And she’ll fill me with laughter

And our love will be like a dance

Both:

Skies will be clear and the sweet sun will shine

I’ll hold her near and I’ll know that she’s mine

No more stormy weather

Love will last forever

Goodbye to the big city blues
