Tony Bennett and Aretha Franklin - How Do You Keep the Music Playing?

How do you keep the music playing?
How do you make it last?
How do you keep the 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, and since we know we're always changing
How can it be the same? Yeah
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
In her eyes may not see forever
Forever

Tony if we can be the best of lovers
And be, baby, be the best of friends
If we can try with every day to make it better as it grows
With any luck, then I suppose
The music never ends

Yes, I know, I know the way I feel for her
It's now or never, now or never
The more I love, the more that I'm afraid, more, more that I'm afraid
That in her eyes, I may not see forever
Forever, forever, forever
If we can be the best of lovers
Baby if we can be, ooh, be the best of friends
If we can try with every day to make it better as it grows
With any luck, I suppose
The music ne-ne-ever, never, never, never, never ends
Never ends
