Barry Manilow - Why Don't We Live Together Lyrics






Why don't we live together
Only the two of us, we'll learn to trust
Don't have to say forever
'cause we know the rain could start and break our hearts
But we'll never find the future if we hesitate
We'll spend our lives waiting

Why don't we live together, taking it day by day we'll find a way
To build us a dream that's better
And still have our wings to fly if love should die
We can't spend our lives rehearsing all these lines of love
It's time to raise the curtain

Why don't we live together whether love lives or dies
At least we'll know we tried

We've both been burned before
But now we know this love is sure
And there'll be no more sorrow
This love is burnin' bright it lights up tomorrow

Why don't we live together takin' lifes rocky ride
Side by side
Sailin' thru stormy weather
Searchin' for sunny skies with open eyes
Sharin' the tears and the laughter is the only way
We'll find the love we're after
Oh why don't we live together
Whether love lives or dies at least we'll know we tried
Why don't we live together
Whether love lives or dies at least we'll know we tried
Why don't we live together
Whether love lives or dies lets take a chance let's try

[fade out]

    Interesting that they won a contest, I just love the song and version !

    1975/76;  the writers (Phil Galdston and Peter Thom) won a contest (if memory still serves, KFC sponsored it) to get this on the album.  I really thought my girl and me could pull this off, but it just didn't happen.  Lovely song.

    @RJ McAllister really. ... wow, I'm a fanilow and I did not know that .... then again, I was in pre-school when this album came out, so ..... it's not surprising that I did not hear about the contest. ..
