I write the songs Barry Manilow Words and Music by Bruce Johnston
I've been alive forever And I wrote the very first song I put the words and the melodies1 together I am music and I write the songs
*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'm young again, even though I'm very old(*)
Oh 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 Well, 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(*)
I am music (music) and I write the songs

我写了一些歌 巴瑞曼尼洛
我已活了一辈子 写下了第一首歌 我把歌词和旋律组合起来 我已融入音乐,我写了歌
我写了一些歌,全世界的人们都在唱 我写了一些关于爱和特别事物的歌 我写了一些歌,让年轻女孩哭了 我写了一些歌,我写了一些歌
我的住所就在你心底 在你灵魂中,我占有一席之地 此刻,当我透过你的双眼望去 我又变得年轻,虽然我已年老
我的音乐使你跳起舞来 使你精神振奋,跃跃欲试 我写了一些摇滚乐让你能摆动身体 音乐充满了你的心 那是个很好的开始 为了你,这是发自我内心 为了我,这是来自你心底 这是一首全世界的交响曲
我已融入音乐,我写了这些歌

这首歌是巴瑞曼尼洛的畅销曲之一,曾在一九七六年登上单曲排行榜的冠军,另一对夫妻档的二重唱Captain & Tennille也曾翻唱过。巴瑞曼尼洛本身是位作曲家歌手( Songwriter Singer ),写出过不少动人的歌曲,但I write the songs这首歌却不是他作的曲子。
