Karaoké I Haven't Played This Song in Years Neil Diamond

Just beyond my windowpane I saw you

Walking in the rain away from me

Visions of your future lay before you you are free

I saw you in the company of strangers

Laughing just a little bit too loud

Looking at reflections in a mirror

I can see the smiling faces but not me among the crowd

Wondering how

I wish that I could play this like a love song

So I could shape it like I wanted to

I'd make it purely from the heart

I know that surely from the heart

There only comes the gentlest of tunes but where are you

We tried to set the world on fire and almost did with our desire

Two of us and maybe more kids inside a candy store

Sparks of joy and celebration suddenly were drowned beneath the tears

And baby you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years

Yes baby you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years

Some believe in magic potions heads all full of crazy notions

Castles built upon a sandy shore

Only magic I believe in is the magic I receive from

Loving you and needing nothing more

Nothing more

We never heard each other's cries that's how lovers turn to lies

When I gave you wanted more then suddenly we're keeping score

I forgave your small deceptions till I couldn't hide my deepest fears

And baby you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years

Yes baby you're the reason that

I haven't played this song in years
