What the World Needs Now: Burt Bacharach Classics lyrics

The look of love
Is in your eyes.
A look your smile
Can't disguise.
The look of love,
It's saying so much more than
just words could ever say.
And what my heart has heard,
Well, it takes my breath away.

I can hardly wait to hold you,
Feel my arms around you.
How long I have waited,
Waited just to love you,
Now that I have found you.

You've got that look of love.

One less bell to answer

One less egg to fry

One less man to pick up after

I should be happy

But all I do is cry

(Cry, cry, no more laughter)

I should be happy

(Oh, why did he go)

I only know that since he left

My life's so empty

Though I try to forget

It just can't be done

Each time the doorbell rings

I still run

I don't know how in the world

To stop thinking of him

Somewhere there is sunshine.

Somewhere days are warm.

Somewhere there's a happy harbour

far from the storm.
Out where the sun shines there is someone

I'm meant to adore,

and I know the day I find her,

I'll smile once more.

Nikki, it's you.

Nikki, where can you be?

It's you,

no one but you for me

I've been so lonely since you went away.

I won't spend a happy day

(burt bacharach - hal david)

Like a grain of sand
That wants to be
A rolling stone
I want to be the man
I’m not,
And have the things
I really haven’t got,
And that’s a lot.

There’ll be joy
And there’ll be laughter.
Something big is what I’m after now
Yes, it’s what I’m after now.

After taking, take up giving,

Trains and boats and planes are passing by.

They mean a trip to Paris or Rome

To someone else but not for me.

The trains and boats and planes
Took you away, away from me.

We were so in love, and high above

We had a star to wish upon. Wish

And dreams come true, but not for me

The trains and boats and planes

Took you away, away from me.

Why do birds suddenly apear

Every time you are near?

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky

Every time you walk by?

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you.

On the day that you were born

and the angels got together

And decided to create a dream come true

So they sprinkled moon dust

in your hair of gold

I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me,

And every step I take recalls how much in love we used to be.

Oh, how can I forget you?

When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me

I was born to love you, and I will never be free

You'll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa
