up front

barry manilow

things were very quiet

back there

you really oughta try it

back there

but when you think you've had enough

it's come the time to pack your stuff and go

i know

i know i'm goin' upfront

out in front

leavin' everyone behind

got to see what i can find

upfront

upfront

out in front

i was always meant to be

there for all the world to see

upfront

nothin' but beginners

back there

they never heard of winners

back there

they laughed at all my schemes

they said forget your dreams and stay

no way

the way to go is upfront

out in front

leavin' everyone behind

got to see what i can find

upfront

upfront

out in front

i was always meant to be

there for all the world to see

upfront

i'm goin' where the livin' is high

and the lovin' is free and easy

every star in the sky

will be shinin' for me

for me

shinin' for me

shinin' shinin'

gonna be shinin'

shinin' shinin'

you see i'm goin' upfront

out in front

leavin' everyone behind

got to see what i can find

upfront

upfront

out in front

i was always meant to be

there for all the world to see
