Bay City Rollers

Why can't we be like before
Has someone else gone and given more love
Than I ever could give you
More love
Has he promised to show you that

Love is a wonderful feeling
Love is, a magical feeling
Love is, a true world of paradise

I just can't believe that it's so
I just can't believe he could give you more love
Than I ever could give you
More love
How could I ever show that

Love is a wonderful feeling
Love is, a magical feeling
Love is, a true world of paradise

Love is such a funny affair
One day you're down next you're in the air
Love, how could I ever give you
More love
How could I ever show you that

Love is a wonderful feeling
Love is, a magical feeling
Love is, a true world of paradise

Love is a wonderful feeling
Love is, a magical feeling
Love is, a true world of paradise

I've been hurt by you
I've been loved by you
When oh when will you be mine
I've been sold by you
Now I'm sold on you
When oh when will you be mine?
I've seen that look in your eyes late at night
But I wait for the day you'll say I do
And make it right
I've seen that look in your eyes late at night
But I wait for the day you'll say I do
And make it right
I've been wanting you
I've been needing you
When oh when will you be mine (repeat and fade)

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never want to let you go
'Cause you started something can't you see
That ever since we met, you've had a hold on me
No matter what you do, I only want to be with you
It doesn't matter where you go or what you do
I want to spend each moment of the day with you
Look what has happened with just one kiss
I never knew that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true, I only want to be with you
Oh, you stopped and you smiled at me
Asked me if I cared to dance
I fell into your open arms
And I didn't stand a chance
Now listen, honey
I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey, I don't care
""Cause you started something and can't you see
That ever since we met, you've had a hold on me
No matter what you do, I only want to be with you
Oh, you stopped and smiled at me
Asked me if I cared to dance
I fell into your open arms
And I didn't stand a chance
Now listen, honey
I just want to be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together, honey, I don't care
'Cause you started something and can't you see
That ever since we met, you've had a hold on me
No matter what you do, I only want to be with you
I only want to be with you

Mana-na-na-na-na-na, Manana
Manana, Manana
Oh, Manana

My love she cried
With tears in her eyes
No "ifs" or "why's" so close to me
Holding me
She sighs

Manana...

They called today
Each kiss tries to say
While you're away remember me
Come back to me

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Manana, Manana
Oh, Manana

Manana, Manana, Manana, Mananna, Manana, Manana, Manana.

The stars still shine
And time after time
Burns in my mind desire for her
Such fire for her
Woh

Mana-na-na-na-na-na, Manana

Il'l be home

Do you love me like I love you
Or is this good bye bye bye bye
I should have known better than to fall in love with you
Love with you
Well I guess I'll spend my whole life loving you
Loving you
One kiss so warm and tender one kiss and I surrender
My love to you forever more.

But do you love me like I love you baby
Say you'll always love me
Ooh like I love you
And do you need me like I need you baby
You know that I'll always be in love with you.

I should have known better than to give my heart away (heart away)
Well I know true love will always have it's day
Your love can last forever
In love we'll be together
Sharing our love forever more.

But do you love me like I love you baby . . .

Yesterday when I was young
I played the game and never won
Thought rock and roll would bless
my soul forever.
Songs of love and ecstasy
Remind me how it used to be
I thought those days would never end
But now it seems I need a friend

I remember all those days gone by
I remember all their faces
The old familiar places

CHORUS
Don't let the music die,
No our song could last forever
Don't let the music die,
Don't let the music die
And though we've said goodbye,
We could spend our lives together,
So as time goes by
Don't let the music die

Yesterday, the world was mine
I played the clown and Pantomime
Or was it just a dream that's gone
forever
Echoed voices from the past
Recall the songs I thought would last
And say "Those times will never die"
And the love we share's the reason why

I remember all those days gone by
I remember all their faces,
The old familiar places

CHORUS
Don't let the music die,
No our song could last forever
Don't let the music die,
Don't let the music die
And though we've said goodbye,
We could spend our lives together,
So as time goes by
Don't let the music die

When we were young we had our time
And we would drink
sweet talking wine
but now that it's over
All the songs sound out of rhyme

CHORUS
Don't let the music die,
No our song could last forever
Don't let the music die,
Don't let the music die
And though we've said goodbye,
We could spend our lives together,
So as time goes by
Don't let the music die

Schoo be do aey, I got somethin' to say
Schoo be do, I got to try to tell you
That I, I, I, I really love you, love you

Schoo be do aey, got to say it my way
It may not be fancy, I know
But I said it before and I'll say it again
And again and again and again

All of me loves all of you
And every little thing you do
All of me loves all of you
Tell me you do, do you love me too?

Sha la la lee, I'm happy to be
Sha la la loo to be with you
I'm saying that you, you, you
You really do it to me

Sha la la lo, I just want you to know
I mean every word that I say
Though I said it before, still I say it again
And again and again and again

All of me loves all of you
And every little thing you do
All of me loves all of you
Tell me you do, do you love me too?

You, me, you, me, you and me

All of me loves all of you
And every little thing you do
All of me loves all of you
Tell me you do?

The summer sun sitting high in the sky
And love that's in everyone's eye
Now the waitin' the anticipating' is over
Over, over
You feel loose and get out in the sun
Summer's here and we're gonna have fun
Two weeks are past and at last
We can really feel free

*chorus*
And you can run in the sun
Having' fun with the one that you really love
Walk in the sand hand in hand
With the boy that you met on vacation
And on a warm summer night it's all right
When he says, baby I love you
Then boy oh boy you're enjoying'
That summerlove sensation

And you're right on the down of the sea
On the beach where the gang's gonna be
We can stay there all day
Until the fall is over over over
In the evening he's waiting for you
And you go to the beach barbecue
And you'll all have a ball till dawn

Listen to the radio
A voice on the early show says I'm not alone
It's just another rainy day in New York City
And the rain comes pouring down
Like early morning strangers we had nothing left to say but
"See you round".

And I think of the night when it all felt so right
How was I supposed to know?
Now your feeling's gone 'cos when I call on the phone
You told the operator say "Sorry, no-one's home"

It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty
I held my candle to the wind and watched my dreams just sail away
With another rainy day in New York City

To think that only yesterday
Life was such an easy game that I could play
Now it's another rainy day in New York City
And the rain comes pouring down

So I'm on my own and the radio says
That the sun ain't gonna shine
With the words you said spinnin' round in my head
You know I can't find a way to get you out of my mind.

It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty
I held my candle to the wind and watched my dreams just sail away
With another rainy day in New York City

It's another rainy day in New York City
At night those city lights they sure look pretty (to fade)

No I just don't wanna dance,
With her tonight,
Cause I'm feeling sad and blue,
It just ain't right,
I just wanna have you by my side,
To love and hold me tight,
Yes I only wanna dance with you tonight,

CHORUS
Wanna dance, find romance,
Yes I only wanna dance with you tonight,
Wanna dance, find romance,
Yes I only wanna dance with you tonight,


I've been waitin' for so long,
Just hangin' round,
And the thought of losing you,
Just brings me down,
I just wanna take you by the hand,
And say that I love you,
Cause I only wanna dance with you tonight

CHORUS
Wanna dance, find romance,
Yes I only wanna dance with you tonight,
Wanna dance, find romance,
Yes I only wanna dance with you tonight

I believed all love has gone
I've no strength to carry on
Thought my world was upside down

Then you walked on to my life
Went to work to set things right
What's the secret that you use

Chorus:
You made me believe in magic
You know that I can be true to your love
You made me believe in magic
Your love's put magic into my life

Now I'm filled with new sense to be
You gave my life harmony
Loving you is all I need

Chorus

I had a dream when I started out
Get out of school and buy a guitar
I had a band with a thousand names
And people said that I was star.

I gotta get up on the stage
And get myself on the hit parade.

’Cause I'm playing in a rock and roll band
And it's the only thing that I understand
Yes, I'm playing in a rock and roll band
And now I've got someone to give me a hand.

'Cause I'm playing in a rock, playing in a rock
Play in a rock and roll band.

The band rehearsed every day and night
And everything was coming on strong
Played Anaheim when the time was right
And all I had to play was this song.

And I could feel electricity
The lights so bright I could hardly see.

’Cause I'm playing in a rock and roll band
And it's the only thing that I understand
Yes, I'm playing in a rock and roll band
And now I've got someone to give me a hand.

'Cause I'm playing in a rock, playing in a rock
Play in a rock and roll band.

It started out so long ago
A kid in school into rock and roll
You couldn't get it out of your head
You heard a voice and all it said was ..

It's gonna be alright into the late, late night
You wanna rock and roll all night.

Playing in a rock and roll band
And it's the only thing that I understand
Yes, I'm playing in a rock and roll band
And now I've got someone to give me a hand.

'Cause I'm playing in a rock, playing in a rock
Play in a rock and roll band
Play in a rock and roll band
Play in a rock and roll band.

We Want Rollers
We Want Rollers
We Want Rollers
We Want Rollers
We Want Rollers
We Want Rollers

When we walk down the street,
See the people who stop and stare and say
Haven't I seen that face somewhere a long time ago?

When we walk down the street,
See the stranger who says, "Why, Hi,"
With a, "How you going, Buddy,
When you walked on by I thought I'd say hello."

They say
Haven't I seen your face before
Weren't you the boy that used to live next door,
Weren't you on television ev'ry night
Haven't I seen you round?

We don't wanna be
A yesterday's hero
yesterday's hero
that's all we'll be

We don't wanna be
A yesterday's hero
A yesterday's hero
is all that we're be gonna be
If we don't get together,
Make a new plan and be constantly better,
All that we'll be if we don't get together now.

When we walk down the street,
If you know me, then pass me by,
If you wonder what I'm doing don't ask me why,
I don't read the news

When we walk down the street,
If you're sorry then don't feel bad,
If you followed my story, I'm just as glad
You ain't in my shoes

Because
Haven't you seen my face before,
Yes, I was the boy who used to live next door,
Yes, I was on television ev'ry night,
Haven't you seen me round?

We don't wanna be
A yesterday's hero
Yesterday's hero
that's all we'll be

We don't wanna be
A yesterday's hero
A yesterday's hero
is all that
we're be gonna be
If we don't get together,
Make a new plan and be constantly better,
All that we'll be if we don't get together now.

(Spoken:
Ladies and gentlemen
the Bay City Rollers
Everybody move back, move back please, here you go, back, back)

We don't wanna be
Yesterday's hero
Yesterday's hero
No, no

We don't wanna be
Yesterday's hero, no
yesterday's hero
No, no

We don't wanna be
Yesterday's hero
Yesterday's hero
No, no

The Way I Feel Tonight


Turn the music way down low,
Let me see you in the glow.
In the fire light you are shining....
Though it's much too soon to know,
If this love I feel will grow.
Let's take tonight to start out finding....

'Cause the way I feel tonight,
Everything will be alright.
I will keep your candle burning.
Oh, yes, the way I feel tonight
Everything will be alright,
And the way I feel tonight,
I love you.

Close the door and turn the key,
Open up your heart to me.
I can see your love light glowing.
Let your body melt in mine,
Let us taste each other's wine.
'Til the cup is overflowing........

'Cause the way I feel tonight,
Everything will be alright.
I will keep your candle burning.
Oh, yes, the way I feel tonight
Everything will be alright,
And the way I feel tonight,
I love you.

Baby, I love you........
Baby, I love you.......

You've been high on love
I've been on my knees
I've been stuck in the middle
Now you know how it feels
I'm back on my feet
Down on the street
Yes, I'm back on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
You know I'm down on the street
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street
I hear the music of the street
Is everywhere
I've been wasting time
You've been chasing me
Now you're out of my mind
Time has set me free
And I'm back on the street
Back on the beat
Yes I'm back on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
You know I'm down on the street
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street
I hear the music of the street
It's everywhere
Yes I'm back on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
You know I'm down on the street
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street
I'll see you down on the street
I feel the sound of the beat
I'm here to stay
Yes I'm back on the street

Chimmy-cherry-some,
we used to make up songs, remember
Sha-la-la-la-loo, I used to sing to you, remember
Hi-de-hi-de-ho, we used to kiss hello, remember
And then we said good-bye
and made each other cry, remember

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-aye
Remember all the little things we used to say
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-eye
Wonder why we ever had to say good-bye

Sing-a-sang-a-song, we used to sing along, remember
The sparkle in your eyes light the starry skies, remember
We would hum along to the beatin' of the drum, remember
The band began to play
and we began to sway, remember

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-aye
Remember all the little things we used to say
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-eye
Wonder why we ever had to say good-bye

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-aye
Remember all the little things we used to say
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-eye
Wonder why we ever had to say good-bye

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-aye
Remember all the little things we used to say
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-eye
Wonder why we ever had to say good-bye

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-aye
Remember all the little things we used to say
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la shoo-be-doo-eye
Wonder why we ever had to say good-bye

The clown came down to meet me
With a smile upon his face
He fired his starting pistol
And began the human race
There were faces all around me
They were running everywhere
But everywhere is nowhere
And nowhere isn't there

It's a game
a game
a game that we're playing
Well
I don't mind but I don't make the rules
It's a game
a game
a game that we're playing
Just a game for lovers and fools

There's snakes upon your ladder
And there's dice upon your skirt
There's lipstick on my collar
And there's sweat upon my shirt
The neighbours wiil start talking
But you know that I don't care
For the neighbours they are nowhere
And nowhere isn't there

It's a game
a game
a game that we're playing
. .
