Tony Orlando - She Always Knew lyrics

When I was singing Ooh I'd be so free The city streets were rough but nothing scared me As long as I could let the music flow My dreams would safely take me where I wanted to go And every night at ten When I heard my mamma call I'd say “Mamma I'll be home soon I gotta dream just one more dream before the night is through” One day sonny your dream will come true For me and you I looked right into my mamma's eyes She always knew From a tenement room I could see my dreams so clearly And I'd say “Oh, I could be a star” On a lighted stage where all the world could hear me Mamma shouted up “Come son, that's enough” I'd say “Mamma I'll be down soon It's late but can it wait, a feelings coming on” The hungry days they'll be a thing of the past before I'm through I could see the look in my mamma's eyes And all along the road to day I could hear my mamma call my name And the answer's still the same I gotta sing just one more song before the night is through Now the spotlight shines and I'll never know it How she always knew She always knew She always knew
