No Matter What Happens Lyrics by Barbra Streisand

No Matter What Happens

Verse:
Look at how she look at me.
I can never look at her that way.
Full of all the feelings and the soft
Unspoken words that lovers say.
In all the words and all the books
I wish there were a way to say that
What shes taught me
Isnt written anywhere
And Im supposed to be the one
Whos wise.
One thing is certain,
I can never be what she
Expects of me.


Ive wanted the shadows,
I dont anymore.
No matter what happens,
I wont anymore.
Ive run from the sunlight-
Afraid it saw too much.
The moon had the one light
I bathed in-
I walked in.
I held in my feelings
And close evry door.
No matter what happens,
I cant anymore.

Theres someone who must hear
The words Ive never spoken.
Tonight if he were here
My silence would be broken.
I need him to touch me-
To know the love thats in my heart-
The same heart that tells me
To see myself-
To free myself-
To be myself at last!

For too many mornings
The curtains were drawn.
Its time they were opened
To welcome the dawn.
A voice deep inside
Is getting stronger.
I cant keep it quiet any longer.
No matter what happens,
It cant be the same anymore.
I promise it wont be the same
Anymore!
