[Verse 1]
Songbird sings from the heart
Each word can tear you apart
I sing, you sing along
You find your life in my song

[Pre-Chorus]
When you need the strength to carry on
You've got me to turn to

[Chorus]
With the songs that I sing
And the magic they bring
They've helped you be strong now
The song sets you free
But who sings to me?
I'm all alone now
Who sings for songbird?

[Verse 2]
Sometimes when I'm all alone
I sing my saddest song
Lonely and no one can see
This time the song is for me

[Pre-Chorus]
I can touch your secret place inside
And still you don't know me

[Chorus]
With the songs that I sing
And the magic they bring
You've learned to be strong now
My song sets you free
But who sings to me?
I'm all alone now
Where is my songbird?
Where is my songbird?

[Outro]
Who sings his songs for me?
He-he
Mmmm

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”.
