Lyrics Johnny Mathis

Johnny Mathis

How Do You Keep the Music Playing?

How do you keep the music playing?

How do you make it last?

How do you keep a song from fading too fast?

How do you lose yourself to someone?

And never lose your way

How do you not run out of new things to say?

And since we know we're always changing

Why should it be the same?

And tell me how year after year

You're sure your heart will fall apart

Each time you hear her name

I know the way you feel for her, it's now or never

The more I love, the more that I'm afraid

That in her eyes, I may not see forever, forever

If you can be the best of lovers

Yet be the best of friends

If we can try with everyday to make it better

As it grows, with any luck, then I suppose

The music never ends

I know the way I feel for her, it's now or never

(How do you keep the music playing?)

(How do you make it last?)

The more I love, the more that I'm afraid

That in her eyes, I may not see forever, forever

If you can be the best of lovers

Yet be the best of friends

If we can try with everyday to make it better

As it grows, with any luck, then I suppose

The music never, never, never ends
