above the law

Singer:barbra streisand

this is me talking to you

tell me what your heart can do?

take me by surprise

whatever you see

you'll never be alone with me

i close or open the door

telling you that less is more

you cannot disguise whatever you do

no one is above the law

in these dark and troubled times

people just surviving

we live a double life

you'd be safe and warm at home

something else is going on

we don't have to kiss and say no more about it

and if your eyes are watching me

baby

life could be so beautiful

and we become invisible

the pleasure is the punishment

for the crime

break away the chains that bind

it's not enough to be satisfied

it's knowing how it all begins

or knowing where the heart belongs

and we all make mistakes

it's your heart and my heart

and no one can take part

and our love

is love above the law

so you decide we go insane

i know what you came here for

whether you are mine

i'll never be sure

we'll ever be above the law

on this dark and stormy night

where these walls may hide us

you sigh and let me in

you let me hold you in these arms of mine

tomorrow is eternity

and we may get to kiss and say no more about it

and if my eyes are watching you

baby

life could be so beautiful so beautiful)

and everything is possible everything is possible)

and we become invisible we become invisible )

it's your heart and my heart

and no one can take part

i'll always be with you

it's what i'm living for

the end of my rainbow

is outside your window

and our love is one love

love above the law love above the law )

it's your heart and my heart

and no one can take part

i'll always be with you

it's what i'm living for it's what i'm living for )

the end of my rainbow

is outside your window

and our love is one love

this is me talking to you

tell me what your heart can do?
