Seems like dreams like I always had
Could be, should be making me glad
Why am I blue?
It's up to you to explain
I'm thinking maybe, baby, I'll go away
Someday, some way, you'll come and say
It's you I need and you'll be pleading in vain
It had to be you, it had to be you
I wondered around, finally found somebody who
Could make me be true, could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad
Thinking of you
Some others I've seen,
Might never be mean, might never be cross,
Or try to be boss, but they wouldn't do
'Cause nobody else gave ma a thrill
With all your faults, I love you still
It had to be you, marvelous you
It had to be you
Ah, let's go!
Ok!
It had to be you, were some kind of faith
it had to be you - I just have to wait
We wander around and finally find
somebody, you
and nobody else gave ma a thrill
With all your faults, I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you
it had to be you
just me and you
no one but you
had to be you
had to be you
it had to be you

People
Fanny and Nick steal a private moment
at the party and discover they are both
a little lonely. Fanny sings:
at the party and discover they are both
a little lonely. Fanny sings:
We travel single-oh
Maybe we're lucky, but I don't know--
With them,
Just let one kid fall down
And seven mothers faint.
I guess we're both happy, but maybe--
We ain't.
People--people who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world,
We're children, needing other children
And yet letting our grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside,
Acting more like children
Than children.
Lovers are very special people,
They're the luckiest people
In the world.
With one person, one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half,
Now you're whole.
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person
Who needs people.
People who need people
Are the luckiest people
In the world!
Nick has to leave the party early because
he's going to Kentucky the next day but
promises to call Fanny when he returns
to New York.

Come Rain Or Come Shine
I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me
Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't that be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine
I Guess when you met me
It was just one of those days
But don't ever bet me
Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't that be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
But I'm with you always
Come rain or shine
I'm with you, I'm with you rain or shine
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain and deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't ever bet me
Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together
And won't that be fine
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or we're out of the money
I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine
I Guess when you met me
It was just one of those days
But don't ever bet me
Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together, unhappy together

But I'm with you always
Come rain or shine
I'm with you, I'm with you rain or shine

Evergreen
[Performed by Barbra Streisand]
Love soft as an easy chair
Love fresh as the morning air
One love that is shared by two
I have found with you
Like a rose under the April snow
I was always certain love would grow
Love ageless and evergreen
Seldom seen by two
You and I will
make each night the first
Everyday a beginning
Spirits rise and their dance is unrehearsed
They warm and excite us
'Cause we have the brightest love
Two lights that shine as one Morning glory and midnight sun
Time... we've learned to sail above
Time... won't change the meaning of one love
Ageless and ever evergreen...

New York State Of Mind
Well, some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami beach or to Hollywood
But I'm takin' a greyhound
On the Hudson river line
I'm in a New York state of mind
I've seen all those movie stars
And their fancy cars and their limousines
I've been high in the rockies, under the evergreens oh oh
But I know what I'm needin'
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a new york state of mind oh oh
It was so easy livin' day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues (oh with the rhythm and blues)
But now I need a little give and take (give and take)
New York times (and the daily news), the daily news oh oh
Comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
I don't care if it's Chinatown (or up on riverside) or up on riverside
I don't have any reasons
'Cause I left them all behind
We're in a New York state of mind
Get a New York state of mind
It was so easy livin' day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues (with the rhythm and blues)
But now I need a little give and take
The New York times (the daily news) (helps you lose your blues)
Comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
I don't care if it's Chinatown or up on riverside (or up on riverside)
We don't have any reasons

The Way We Were
Mem'ries light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored mem'ries of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we
Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember the way we were
The way we were
Misty water-colored mem'ries of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we
Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter we will remember
Whenever we remember the way we were
The way we were

I Still Can See Your Face
At least one moment everyday
I hear the echo of your voice
And though it's only in my mind
It stays with me, I have no choice
I reached for you as if you're here
Your tender touch, your warm embrace
And though it's been so many years
I still can see your face
We're all just prisoners of time
The days go rushing by
With memories we've locked away
There may not been much I regret
But there were things we couldn't say
Maybe the ending came too soon
You are the one I can't replace
And though it's been so many years
I still can see your face
Somehow we knew another love would find us
We'd carry on, leave yesterday behind us
Sometimes I find, the quiet nights
I close my eyes and realize
I've never loved too far
And if by chance we meet again
We meet again
A sudden crazy twist of fate
A street where we have never been
And with the hour getting late
You're running to my open arms
Like all the years have been erased
In every shadow of the past
I still can see your face
In every shadow of the past
I still can still your face
I still can see your face
I still can see your face
I hear the echo of your voice
And though it's only in my mind
It stays with me, I have no choice
I reached for you as if you're here
Your tender touch, your warm embrace
And though it's been so many years
I still can see your face
We're all just prisoners of time
The days go rushing by
With memories we've locked away
There may not been much I regret
But there were things we couldn't say
Maybe the ending came too soon
You are the one I can't replace
And though it's been so many years
I still can see your face
Somehow we knew another love would find us
We'd carry on, leave yesterday behind us
Sometimes I find, the quiet nights
I close my eyes and realize
I've never loved too far
And if by chance we meet again
We meet again
A sudden crazy twist of fate
A street where we have never been
And with the hour getting late
You're running to my open arms
Like all the years have been erased

I still can see your face
I still can see your face

How Deep Is The Ocean
How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How many times a day do I think of you?
How many roses are sprinkled with dew?
How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you, how much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you, how much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How high is the sky?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?

What Kind Of Fool
Ik zat al veel te lang in zak en as
Ik vond het tijd een nieuwe start te maken
Ik stak mijn nek uit
Ging achter dromen aan
Gewoon alleen
Ik vond een plek die net een sprookje was
Maar waar je makkelijk verdwaald kon raken
Hij stak een hand uit
Toen ben ik meegegaan
Niet meer alleen
Wat, wat kon ik doen?
Ik was nog jong, en als de dood voor morgen
Een veilig huis
Iemand die zei
Laat mij maar voor je zorgen
Dat heeft niet lang geduurd, want
Nu zit ik hier alweer in zak en as
Nu moet ik weer een nieuwe start gaan maken
Ik stak mn nek uit,
Wie staat er nu voor gek
Alweer alleen
Wat, wat kon ik doen?
Kan ik het aan
Weer voor mezelf te zorgen
Een eenzaam huis
Iedere nacht nog net zo bang voor morgen
En dan die stem die in mijn oren brult
Eigen schuld, was ik te dom
Waarom is het fout gegaan?
Nu weet ik beter hoe de zaken staan
Ik wen eraan, dat iedereen weg zal gaan
Wat kon ik doen
Heb je een droom,
Dan moet je daar zelf voor zorgen
Een eigen huis
Iedere dag is weer een nieuwe morgen
Waar ging het fout
Wat kon ik doen
Ik wen er al aan
Wat je ook doet, je blijft alleen.
Ik vond het tijd een nieuwe start te maken
Ik stak mijn nek uit
Ging achter dromen aan
Gewoon alleen
Ik vond een plek die net een sprookje was

Love Me Tender

when you held me near
Whispering the sweetest words

all my dreams fulfilled
For my darling I love you

Lost Inside Of You
Time has come again
And love is in the wind
Like some music in a dream
You made them all come true
When you came inside of my life
Now I'm lost
Inside of you
Lost in the music
And lost in your eyes
I could spend all of my time
Hearing songs you sing
Feeling love you bring
Darling being close to you
Made all my dreams come true
When you came inside my life
Now I'm lost inside of you
And love is in the wind
Like some music in a dream
You made them all come true
When you came inside of my life
Now I'm lost
Inside of you
Lost in the music
And lost in your eyes
I could spend all of my time
Hearing songs you sing
Feeling love you bring
Darling being close to you
Made all my dreams come true
When you came inside my life
Now I'm lost inside of you

Ive Got A Crush On You
I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie
All the day and night-time hear me sigh
I never had the least notion
That I could fall with so much emotion
I wonder...Could you coo, now, could you care
For a cozy cottage we could share
The world will pardon my mush
'Cause I have got a crush, my baby, on you
I've got a crush on you,
I've got a crush on you,
Sweetie pie
Sweetie pie
All the day and night-time
All the day and night-time
Hear me sigh
Hear me sigh
I never had the least notion
That I could fall with...
I'd fall with...
So much...
So much emotion
So much emotion
Could you coo?
I could coo!
Could you possibly care?
I could care!
For a lovely cottage...
Ooo that cottage
That we could share!
The world will pardon my mush
Yes, I have got a crush, my Barbra, on you!
You will make me blush, Francis!

I Finally Found Someone
I finally found someone, that knocks me off my feet
I finally found the one, that makes me feel complete
We started over coffee, we started out as friends
It's funny how from simple things, the best things begin
This time it's different,
Dah dah dah dah
It's all because of you,
Dah dah dah dah
It's better than it's ever been
'Cause we can talk it through
Oohh, my favorite line was "Can I call you sometime?"
It's all you had to say
To take my breath away
This is it, oh, I finally found someone
Someone to share my life
I finally found the one, to be with every night
'Cause whatever I do,
It's just got to be you
My life has just begun
I finally found someone,
Barbra:
Ooh, someone
I finally found someone,
Oooh . . .
Did I keep you waiting,
I didn't mind
I apologize,
Baby, that's fine
I would wait forever
Just to know you were mine
Bryan:
You know I love your hair,
Are you sure it looks right?
I love what you wear,
Isn't it the time?
You're exceptional,
I can't wait for the rest of my life . . .

I Wont Be The One To Let Go
I have dreams for you and me
And wishes that will last
And live beyond eternity
Summer's gone, winter's on
Can we weather everything
Our eyes have yet to see?
As the years go by
I promise you that I
I will be the one to run to
When the nights are long
I'll be there when winds begin to blow
Even when it seems that everything is going wrong
This I swear
I swear
I won't be the one to let go
Life gets tough
Ooh
Roads get rough
Ooh
Who knows what awaits us 'round the bend
Count on me, faithfully
Though everything we have could never end
It could never end
And through rain or shine
And every cloudy sky
I will be the one to run to
When the nights are long
I'll be there when winds begin to blow
Even when it seems that everything is going wrong
This I swear
This I swear
I won't be the one to let go
I'll be there
I'll be there
Anytime you need me you'll know where I am
You'll know just where I am and everywhere
Everywhere
Anytime you're lost just turn around
Just turn around
And take my hand and
I will be your light in the night
And I promise that even when it seems
That everything is going wrong
This I swear
This I swear
I won't be the one
To let go
To let go
This I swear
I swear
I won't be the one to let go
To let
Go
And wishes that will last
And live beyond eternity
Summer's gone, winter's on
Can we weather everything

Partners is the thirty-fourth studio album by American singer Barbra Streisand, released on September 16, 2014, by Columbia Records. The album features Streisand singing duets with an all-male lineup including Stevie Wonder, Michael Bublé, Billy Joel, John Legend, John Mayer, Andrea Bocelli, Lionel Richie, and from an earlier recording, Elvis Presley (who died in 1977). The collection also features Streisand's first studio-recorded duet with her now 47-year-old son, Jason Gould. The album release was promoted on The Tonight Show, where Streisand was the evening's sole guest and sang a medley with host Jimmy Fallon.
While the recordings are new, most of the songs have a previous history as Streisand releases. Two classic Streisand duets are updated with new partners: "What Kind of Fool", newly performed with John Legend (originally with Barry Gibb) and "Lost Inside of You", newly performed with Kenny Edmonds (originally with Kris Kristofferson). The deluxe edition features an additional duet with Edmonds along with previously released material featuring Frank Sinatra (who died in 1998), Bryan Adams, Barry Manilow, and Barry Gibb (from The Bee Gees).
Partners is one of 2014's best-selling albums in the US, having sold 856,000 copies. Partners topped the Billboard 200 with sales of 196,000 copies in the first week, making Streisand the only recording artist to have a number-one album in six different decades (1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s.) It was also certified gold in November 2014 and platinum in January 2015, thus becoming Streisand's 52nd gold and 31st Platinum album (she also has 7 Gold-certified singles to her credit), more than any other female artist in history. The album was nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal album at the 57th Grammy Awards.
