When I fall, you're my place to land
I lose my touch, you're my hands
The one I hold on to
If you run out of reason to try
I'll love enough for both you and I
I'll be the one you can run to
I'd rather go through any pain love puts us through
Than to spend one day without you by my side

If you ever leave me, will you take me with you?
If you're ever lonely, I wanna be lonely too
My home's beside you, no matter where you may go
My love's inside you, even more than you know

In a world of anger and lies
I find peace in your eyes
A flame in the darkness

Ooh, And through all space and time
'Til every star refuses to shine

You know where my heart is
I'd rather go through any pain love puts us through

Than to spend one day without you by my side
If you ever leave me, will you take me with you?
If you're ever lonely, I wanna be lonely too, Woah
My home's beside you, no matter where you may go

Where you may go
My love's inside you, even more than you know

And I can't remember life without you
The way it used to be
Feels like a million years away

Well Hold me 'til the angels sing
Tell me every little thing

Promise me forever from this day

If you ever leave me, will you take me with you?
If you're ever lonely, I wanna be lonely too, Woah
My home's beside you, no matter where you may go

Where you may go
My love's inside you, even more than you know

Even more than you know
Even more than you know

Even more than you know
Even more than you know

Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
