The Places You Find Love Lyrics


It was raining when I met you
You were soaking wet no time to be impressed
And I remember so much later on
I knew that you were someone I would not forgetEverybody's searching hungry for the glamor
You know too many hearts are in a rush
No matter how you try to, you can't explain
The places you find loveI can't explain it but I can feel it
All around me the need to find the place
Where feeling can be safe, it's not money that buys happiness
No, it's not the shine of silver that puts the heart to restEverybody's pushing the clock is always running
And no one ever seems to have enough
And when you least expect it
You come upon the places you find love, love, loveRemember in a flash the feeling can hit you
After all the times that it missed
You reaching deep inside to find your secret heart, yeah, yeahLook around you notice you're flying
And for once you're not even trying
City lights below you like a million tiny stars, oh yeahIt's a river never stopping winding in and out
But you should never doubt

It will lead you to the ocean someday
There's no way to fight it let it carry you awayEverybody's dreaming waiting for the feeling
That moment when they finally rise above
But it's always in the giving
That gets you to the places you find love, loveRemember in the poorest part of town
Where the sun never reaches the ground
And seeing's not believing the feeling stays alive, yeah, yeahLittle children laughing and playing
'Cause they haven't learned to start hating
Never giving no, 'cause they will believe in love, sweet love
Love, love, love, love, loveRemember in a flash the feeling can hit you
After all the times that it missed you
Reaching deep inside to find your secret heart, yeah, yeahLook around you notice you're flying
And for once you're not even trying
City lights below you like a million tiny starsIn the poorest part of town
Where the sun never reaches the ground
Seeing's not believing the feeling stays alive, yeah, yeahLittle children laughing and playing
'Cause they haven't learned to start hating
Never giving up no, they still believe in love, sweet loveIn a flash the feeling can hit you
After all the times that it missed you
Reaching deep inside to find your secret heart, yeah, yeahLook around you notice you're flying
And for once you're not even trying
City lights below you like a million tiny stars

Barbra Streisand (born Barbara Joan Streisand; April 24, 1942 Brooklyn, New York), is an Academy Award-winning American singer, theater and film actress, composer, film producer, and director. She has won Oscars for Best Actress and Best Original Song as well as multiple Emmy Awards, Grammy Awards, Golden Globe Awards and an honorary Tony Award. She received the prestigious Kennedy Center Honor on December 7, 2008. She is the most successful female recording artist according to the Recording Industry Assoc. of America (RIAA).

Barbra Streisand has recorded more than 60 albums, almost all with Columbia Records. Her early works in the 1960s (her debut The Barbra Streisand Album which won two Grammy Awards in 1963, followed by The Second Barbra Streisand Album, The Third Album, My Name Is Barbra, etc.) are considered classic renditions of theater and nightclub standards, including her version of Happy Days Are Here Again. Beginning with My Name Is Barbra, her albums were often medley-filled keepsakes of her television specials.

Starting in 1969, Streisand tackled contemporary songwriters; like many talented singers of the day, she found herself a fish out of water in attempts to tackle rock, but her vocal talents prevailed and she gained newfound success with the pop and ballad-oriented Richard Perry-produced album Stoney End in 1971. The title track, written by Laura Nyro, was a big hit for Streisand.

Streisand's 1980 album, Guilty featured the songwriting, production and vocal talents of Barry Gibb and was the best-selling album of her recording career. During the 1970s, she was also highly prominent in the pop charts, with number-one records like The Way We Were, Evergreen, No More Tears (Enough Is Enough) (her duet with Donna Summer), and Woman In Love; some of these came from soundtracks of her films. She recently took part in supporting Haiti in singing "We are the World 25th anniversary.

When the 1970s ended, Streisand was named the most successful female singer in the U.S. - only Elvis Presley and The Beatles having sold more albums. [1]

[1] In 1982, New York Times music critic Stephen Holden wrote that Streisand was "the most influential mainstream American pop singer since Frank Sinatra."
