I look at you and there it is
The ultimate in where it is
And realize how rare it is
This finding your love
You try so many arms
When you are lonely
To find the one and only
One day you turn and he's there
Amazing how serene it is
The shade of evergreen, it is
Exactly what we mean, it is
And knew it would be
When love like ours arrives

We guard it with our lives
Whatever goes astray
When a rainy day comes around
A love like ours will keep us safe and sound

(humming)

When love like ours arrives
We guard it with our lives
Whatever goes astray
What rainy day comes around
Love like ours will keep us safe and sound

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”.
