Lyrics I Write the Songs - Me First and The Gimme Gimmes

I′ve been alive forever
And I wrote the very first song
I put the words and melodies together
I am music and I write the songs
(Chorus)
I 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 songs
My home lies deep within you
And I've got my own place in your soul
Now when I look out through your eyes
I am young again even though I′m very old
(Repeat chorus)
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 and 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 symphony
(Repeat chorus)
Yeah! I write the songs that make the whole world scream!
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 songs
I am music (music) and I write the songs
Yeah
