Barry Manilow - Big City Blues Lyrics

Lyrics Big City Blues - Barry Manilow



(With Mel Torme)
Mel:
Much of my life has been spiced with romance
Barry:
Too many bedrooms I've slept in by chance
Mel:
Drownin' out my sorrow
Barry:
Longin' for tomorrow
Both:
Caught up in the big city blues
Barry:
Rain pourin' down from a cold winter sky
Mel:
Don't wanna smile and I'm too sad to cry
Barry:
Clouds hangin' above me
Mel:
No one there to love me
Both:
Guess it's just the big city blues
Barry/Mel:
Someday I'll find me the dream that I'm after
I'll know her with only a glance
Mel/Barry:
She'll make me smile
And she'll fill me with laughter
And our love will be like a dance
Both:
Skies will be clear and the sweet sun will shine
I'll hold her near and I'll know that she's mine
No more stormy weather
Love will last forever
Good-bye to the big city blues
