Born To Sing (I Was Born To Sing Forever) Lyrics


Shirley Bassey Born To Sing (I Was Born To Sing Forever)

(live Shirley Bassey begins with the refrain before the first verse) 
When the spotlight hits my face, I'm alive 

The stage is were I'll always survive
The only place that I want to be
When I hear the audience coming in 
I feel the magic starts to begin
And then I know they come to see me
When I hear the maestro strike up the band 
And the drums begin to play
It's the only way that I understand 
To live my life each day
Refrain: 

I was born to sing forever 
Born to sing for you
And as long as were together 
There's nothing else I want to do
I was born to sing forever 
To me that's everything
And until the end of time 
I know, I'm born to sing
(live Shirley Bassey repeats the refrain here and then ends without the second verse) 

When the rhythm start to beat in my brain 

I sing the verse and then the refrain
And love to hear the sound of applause
When the crowd appreciate what I do 
I find that each performance is new
I go on singing that is because
There are those who think I'm wasting my time 
They say that's life's not just a song
But as long as there is music and rhyme 
I know where I belong
I was born to sing forever 

Born to sing for you
And as long as were together 
There's nothing else I want to do
I was born to sing forever 
To me that's everything
And until the end of time 
I know, I'm born to sing
I was born to sing forever 

To me that's everything
And until the end of time 
I know, I'm born to sing
