Randy Crawford

I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go
Streetlife it`s the only life I know
Streetlife and there`s a thousand parts to play
Streetlife until you play your life away

You let the people see, just who you wanna be
And every night you shine, just like a super star
That`s how the life is played a ten cent masquerade
You dress, you walk, you talk
You`re who you think you are

Streetlife you can run away from tide
Streetlife for a nickel or a dime
Streetlife but you better not get old
Streetlife or you`re gonna feel the cold

There`s always love for sale a grown-up fairytale
Prince charming always smiles behind a silver spoon
And if you keep it young your song is always sung
Your love will pay your way beneath the silver moon

Streetlife Streetlife
Streetlife - Streetlife

I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go
Streetlife it`s the only life I know
Streetlife and there`s a thousand parts to play
Streetlife until you play your life away - ooh

Streetlife - Streetlife
Streetlife - Streetlife

I make it alone
When love is gone
Still you made your mark
Here in my heart

One day I'll fly away
Leave your love to yesterday
What more can your love do for me
When will love be through with me

I follow the night
Can't stand the light
When will I begin
My life again

One Day I'll fly away
Leave your love to yesterday
What more can your love do for me
When will love be through with me
Why live life from dream to dream
And dread the day that dreaming ends

One day I'll fly away leave
your love to yesterday
What more can your love do for me
When will love be through with me
Why live life from dream to dream
And dread the day that dreaming ends

One day i'll fly away, fly away,
fly away -

When somebodyReaches for your heart
Open up and let it through
Cause everybody
Needs someone around
When things are coming down on you
And you discover
When you look around
You don't have to be alone
Just one lover Is all you need to know
When you're feeling all alone
You might need somebody
You might need somebody too
You might need somebody
You might need somebody too
If some fire Is stirring in your heart
And you're sure it's warm and bright
Keep it burning
Through the cold and dark
Cause it can warm a lonely night
You might need somebody
You might need somebody too
You might need somebody
You might need somebody too
You might need somebody
You might need somebody too
You might need somebody
You might need somebody too

Opening up my suitcase
Trying to find a warm place
To spend the night
Heavy rains are falling
Seems i hear your voice calling
Alright

A rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia
I believe that it's raining all over the world
I feel that it's raining all over the world

Neon sign are flashing
Taxis, cabs and buses passing
Through the night
A distant moment of the train
Seems to play a sad refrain
To the night

A rainy night in Georgia
Such a rainy night in Georgia
I believe that it's raining all over the world
I feel like it's been raining all over the world

How many times i've wondered
It still comes out the same
No matter how you look at it often
It's life and we've just got to play the game

I shake the rain from my sweater
Take out your letters to pass some time
Last it night when its ime to rest
I hold your pictures to my breast and
I feel fine, fine

It's a rainy night in Georgia
Such a rainy night in Georgia
I feel that it's raining all over the world
Lord I feel like it's raining all over the world

Rainy night
Such a rainy night
It still comes out the same

I've got a secret combination
I'm gonna use it to lock away your love
I've got a standing obligation
Never to change it 'cause then I?d lose your love

All the girls in town are trying
To get on your good side
They don't know that you ain't buying
Now matter how they try, I know they'll never find out

My secret combination
(Secret combination)
I'm gonna use it to lock away your love
I've got a standing obligation
Never to change it 'cause then I?d lose your love

I bet they'd like to know my secret
But I'm not telling, no
My lips are sealed and I'm not speaking
It?s my intention, never gonna mention

My secret combination
(Secret combination)
I'm gonna use it to lock away your love
I've got a standing obligation
Never to change it 'cause then I?d lose your love

I'm not gonna tell anybody
Never gonna say a single word
It's my intention, never gonna mention

My secret combination
(Secret combination)
I'm gonna use it to lock away your love
I've got a standing obligation
Never to change it 'cause then I?d lose your love

I don't want to lose your love
(I've got a secret)
I don't want to lose your love
(Secret combination)

I've got a secret, yeah, yeah
Ain't gonna let it out, no, no
I've got a secret

She only smiles
He only tells her
that she's the flowers
of wind and spring
In all her splendor
sweetly surrendering
The love that innocence bring
Almaz pure and simple
Born in a world where
love survives
Now men will want her
Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz You lucky lucky thing

Now I watch closely
And I watch wholly
I can't imagine love so rare
She's young and tender
But will life bend her
I look around
if she everything
Almaz pure and simple
Born in a world where
love survives
Now men will want her
Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz You lucky lucky thing

He throws her kisses
She shares his wishes
I'm sure he's king
without a doubt
With love so captive
So solely captive
I ask if I could
play the part
Almaz pure and simple
Born in a world where
love survives
Now men will want her
Cause life don't haunt her
Almaz You lucky lucky thing
Almaz You lucky lucky thing
Almaz You lucky lucky thing

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
will be as one

Everything must change
Nothing stays the same
Everyone willl change
No one stays the same

The young become the old
Mysteries do unfold
For that's the way of time
Nothing and no one goes unchanged

There are not many things in life
You can be sure of...

Except, rain comes from the clouds
Sun light up the sky
Hummingbirds do fly

Winter turns to spring
The wounded heart will heal
But never much to soon
But everything must change

The young become the old
Mysteries do unfold
But that's the way that time
Nothing

If you're not afraid of what love brings
than endings are beginnings of beautiful things
It's a chance you take a chance you're in
if someone's gonna find you
first you've got to let them in
cause love bigins with one hello
the hardest part is over now it's easy letting go
one hello is how it starts you might win it all
or lose your heart
If you're not afraid of what you feel
then try to keep it simple
but try and keep if real
and if bein real means that someday say goodbye
remember my friends goodbye's not the end
it's a circle you know
and it starts with one hello
love begins with one hello
the hardest part is over now it's easy letting go
one hello is how it starts
remember my friends goodbye's not the end
it's a circle you know and it starts it starts with one hello it starts with one hello
umm.....

Tender falls the rain
As I speak your name
And what it means to me
Tender falls the tears
As I think of all the years
And all the joy we shared

Leaving me this way
Theres just no more words to say
Except I love you baby
I still love you baby

I guess I couldn't see
Just what you mean to me
Until the rain began

Tender falls the light
As I hold our pillow tight
In place of you dear
Gently calms the pain
As I call out your name
He no longer hears
No longer hears

Leaving me this way
Theres just no more words to say
Except I'm sorry baby
I'm so so sorry baby
I guess I couldn't see
Just what you mean to me
Until the rain began

Leaving me this way
Theres just no more words to say
Except I love you baby
I still love you baby

Deep inside I know
This love vould grow and grow
Forever more

Tender falls the rain
Tender falls the rain
