I Write the Songs

I've been alive forever

And I wrote the very first song

I put the words and the melodies together

I am music and I write the songsI write the songs that make the whole world sing

I write the songs of love and special things

I write the songs that make the young girls cry

I write the songs, I write the songsMy home lies deep within you

And I've got my own place in your soul

Now, when I look out through your eyes

I'm young again, even though I'm very oldI write the songs that make the whole world sing

I write the songs of love and special things

I write the songs that make the young girls cry

I write the songs, I write the songsOh my music makes you dance

And gives you spirit to take a chance

And I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move

Music fills your heart

Well, that's a real fine place to start

It's from me it's for you

It's from you, it's for me

It's a worldwide symphonyI write the songs that make the whole world sing

I write the songs of love and special things

I write the songs that make the young girls cry

I write the songs, I write the songsI write the songs that make the whole world sing

I write the songs of love and special things

I write the songs that make the young girls cry

I write the songs, I write the songsI am music (music) and I write the songs
