Barbra Streisand

Songwriter: Jimmy Davis Jimmy Sherman Roger Ramirez

Producer: Jack Gold Howard A. Roberts

I don't know why
But I'm feeling so sad
I long to try
Something I've never had
Never had no kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
The night is cold
And I'm all so alone
I'd give my soul
Just to call you my own
Got a moon above me
But no one to love me
Lover man, oh, where can you be?
I've heard it said
That the thrill of romance can be
Like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with the prayer
That you'll make love to me
Strange as it may seem
Some day we'll meet
And you'll dry all my tears
And whisper sweet
Little things in my ears
Huggin' and then kissin'
Mmm, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh ,where can you be, be?
Huggin' and then kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'

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”.
