Karaoké Read 'em and Weep Barry Manilow

I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say

I thought I'd leave you with a letter or a fiery speech

Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play

And I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense

I'd like to know why you gave up and you threw it away

I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant

Well I could tell you goodbye or maybe see you around with just a touch of a sarcastic thanks

We started out with a bang and at the top of the world

Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks

And everything's blank

If I could only find the words then I would write it all down

If I could only find a voice

I would speak

Oh it's there in my eyes

Oh can't you see me tonight

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep

If I could only find the words then I would write it all down

If I could only find a voice

I would speak

Oh oh it's there in my eyes

Oh can't you see me tonight

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep

I've been whispering softly trying to build a cry up into a scream

We let the past slip away and put the future on hold

Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream

And I've been dreaming forever

Hoping something would eventually come

I saw your eyes in the dark

I felt your kiss on my lips

I traced your body in the air until the bodies were numb

Well I could tell you goodbye or maybe see you around with just a touch of a sarcastic thanks

But now the rooms are all empty

The candles are dark

The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks

And everything's fine

If I could only find the words then I would write it all down

If I could only find a voice

I would speak

Oh it's there in my eyes

Oh can't you see me tonight

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep

Oh it's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart

It's running silent and angry and deep

Oh oh it's there in my eyes and it's all I can say

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep

For all the hours we'll be spending alone

For the dreams we'll ignore

And all those promises we promised to keep

They won't be kept anymore

For the memories still alive in the bed

For the lies we believed

And all the things that will have never been said

Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep

Come on and look at me and read 'em

It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart

It's running silent and angry and deep

It's there in my eyes

It's all I can say

Come on and look at me and read 'em

And weep
