Lyrics
The Way I Feel Tonight From the musical “Match” Words and Music. Robert Michael Turco © 2022
Sung by Teddy Bear
No one knows the tears I’ve cried I do my crying deep inside
I shed them in a private space So, no one ever sees a trace
I force a smile upon my face I can’t afford to lose my place
No one sees the tears I cry No one knows the way I feel tonight
And then I find you next to me on a bed beneath a Bluebirds tree
Inside a very special room with precious birds and red balloons
On linens from a foreign land You touch me with the softest hands
You calm me in the sweetest ways No one knows the way I feel tonight
When you smile for me It strikes up the violins
That were waiting in my heart just to be played – by you
Open up and take me in your arms
So, we can climb on Robins wings toward Heaven
You’ve come into my lonely world My gracious lovely Sunrise Girl
Colored crystals hanging high A mandala of an Eagles Eye
I seek some peace within your arms I marvel at your precious charms
No one knows my joy inside No one knows the way I feel tonight
No one knows the way I feel tonight
