Here by my side
Are you close enough to take me to your paradise
Or am I going down to my loneliness
Could you be loving me more or less

Do you know
Are you ready for the feeling
Can you learn to grow
Out in a world of tears we
We were hanging on
We come together
We find the sun

You all over me, all over
You're the light
I am the love don't let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises to be there
Promises to be there

Life, where the few may not ever find a heaven
I could be with you
Out in a world where nights
Tthey don't ever end
We got each other my love
My life, my friend

You all over me, all over
You're the light
I am the love don't let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises to love me
Promises to love me

Out in a world where nights
They don't ever ever end
We've got each other my love
My life, my friend

You all over me, all over
You're the light
I am the love don't let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises to be there
Promises to be there
Yeah...yeah...yeah
(Die away)

I am the love don't let me die away
I am forever we are born to make
Promises...
Promises...
Promises...
Promises...
(promises to be there
Promises to be there)
Promises to be there
Promises
Promises to be there
Promises
Promises to be there
Promises
Promises...aaaah!

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”.
