Send In The Clowns / Looks Like We Made It Lyrics
Barry Manilow
Lyrics
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There you are
Lookin' just the same as you did,
Last time I touched you
And, here I am
Close to gettin' tangled up
Inside the thought of you
Do you love him
as much as I love her
And will that love be strong
When old feelings start to stir
Looks like we made it
Left each other on the way,
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it
Love's so strange
Playin' hide and seek, with hearts
And always hurtin'
And we're the fools
Standin' close enough to touch
Those burnin' memories
And if I hold you
For the sake of all those times
love made us lose our minds
Could I ever let you go
Oh, no... we made it
Left each other, on the way
To another love
Looks like we made it
Or I thought so, till today
Until you were there
everywhere
And all I could taste was love
the way we made it
