The whispers in the morning of lovers sleeping tight /are rolling by like thunder now as I look in your eyes /I hold on to your body and feel each move you make /your voice is warm and tender a love that I could not forsake /'Cause you're my lady and I'm your man /whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can /Lost is how I'm feeling lying in your arms /when the world outside's too much to take /that all ends when I'm with you /even though there may be times it seems I'm far away /but never wonder where I am cause I am always by your side /'Cause you're my lady and I'm your man /whenever you reach for me I'll do all that I can /We're heading for something somewhere I've never been /sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn /about the power of love /The sound of your heart beating made it clear suddenly /the feeling that I can't go on is light years away /'Cause you're my lady and I'm your man /whenever you reach for me I’ll do all that I can /We're heading for something somewhere I've never been /sometimes I am frightened but I'm ready to learn /about the power of love
Music Of The Night (Duet with Barbra Streisand)
MICHAEL: Night-time sharpens/ Heightens each sensation / Darkness stirs and wakes imagination./ Silently the senses abandon their defenses/ Helpless to resist the notes I write/ For I composed the music of the night!
BARBRA: Slowly, gently/ Night unfurls its splendor/ Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender.
BOTH: Hearing is believing, music is deceiving/ Hard as lightning, soft as candle light,
MICHAEL: There you trust the music of the night...
BARBRA: Close your eyes/ For your eyes will only tell the truth,
BOTH: And the truth isn’t what you want to see/ In the dark it is easy to pretend/ That the truth is what it ought to be...
MICHAEL: Softly,
BARBRA: Deafening,
BOTH: Music shall caress you.
BARBRA: Hear it,
MICHAEL: Feel it,
BOTH: Secretly posses you. /Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind/ In this darkness which you know you cannot fight/ The darkness of the music of the night /Close your eyes start a journey through a strange new world /Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before! /Close your eyes and let music set you free! /Only then can you belong to me... /Floating (floating), falling (falling) /Sweet intoxication! /Touch me (touch me), trust me (trust me) /Savour each sensation! /Let the dream begin/ Let your darker side give in /To the power of the music that I write/ The power of the music of the night!
BARBRA: Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah... Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah... Ah-ah-ah.. Aaaaaaaaaah...oooh...
MICHAEL: You alone can make my song take flight/ Help me make the music of the night...
BARBRA: Help me make the music of the night...
Speak low when you speak love/ Our summer day withers away too soon, too soon/ Speak low when you speak love/ Our moment is swift, like ships adrift, we're swept apart, too soon/ Speak low, darling, speak low/ Love is a spark, lost in the dark too soon, too soon/ I feel wherever I go/ That tomorrow is near/ Tomorrow is here and always too soon/ Time is so old and love so brief /Love is pure gold and time a thief/ We're late, darling, we're late/ The curtain descends, everything ends too soon, too soon/ I wait, darling, I wait/ Will you speak low to me, speak love to me and soon./ I wait, darling, I wait/ Will you speak low to me/ Slow to me, oh please/ Just don’t say no to me /Let it flow to me, slow to me /Soon...Soon...Soon./ Ooo...Soon...Darling, speak low to me/ Darling, speak slow to me /Oh, oh, oh!
Papa can you hear me?/ A piece of sky
Tell me where/ Where is it written/ What is it I meant to be/ That I can't dare/ It all began the day I found/ That from my window I could only see/ A piece of sky/ I stepped outside and looked around/ I never dreamed it was so wide/ Or even half as high/ The time had come/ (Papa can you hear me?)/ To try my wings/ (Papa are you near me?)/ And even though it seemed at any moment I could fall/ I felt the most/ (Papa can you see me?)/ Amazing things/ (Can you understand me?)/ The things you can't imagine/ If you've never flown at all/ Though it's safet to stay on the ground/ Sometimes where danger lies/ There the sweetest pleasures are found/ No matter where I go/ There'll be memories that tug at my sleeve/ But there will also be/ More to question yet more to believe/ Oh tell me where/ Where is there someone who will turn to look at me/ And want to share/ My ev'ry sweet imagined possibility/ The more I live the more I learn/ The more I learn the more I realise/ The less I know/ Each step I take/ (Papa I've a voice now!) each page I turn/ (Papa I've a choice now!) each mile I travel only means/ I have more to go/ What's wrong with wanting more?/ If you can fly- then soar!/ With all there is, why settle for/ Just a piece of sky?/ Papa I can hear you/ Papa I can see you/ Papa I can feel you/ Papa watch me fly!
