Barry Manilow - A Linda Song lyrics

rate me

He never wrote a song for Linda

he wrote as though he lived alone

he wrote of dreams that end of sad brave men

inventing worlds he never known

but he never wrote a song for Linda

and she was right there all along

loved him back to life

when his luck ran low

but he never wrote a Linda song

he nearly broke his heart at writing

Linda kept him from despair

standing by his side, through the hungry days

but he hardly seemed to see her there

and he never wrote a song for Linda

and she was right there all along

the one real thing in his crazy world

and he never wrote a Linda song

when the bills piled up and couldn't pay

he couldn't dream no more

so he hitched a ride and he road away

and he left a note for Linda by the door

by the door

when times got rough he'd phone her

once or twice she took the call

then she changed her number and she turned her head

and Linda never looked back at all

he'll never write a song for Linda

and she was right there all along

all he knows, is no one understands

and he never wrote a Linda song

no he never wrote a Linda song
