Shanghai Breezes (Live)-John Denver

[00:00.000]Everywhere I go in the world [00:03.000]I introduce this song by saying this about two lovers [00:06.000]who find themselves are on the opposite sides of the planet. [00:10.000]And they feeling very very much alone [00:12.000]distance separate from one to another [00:14.000]Until one night on the telephone conversation they talk about the fact that [00:18.000]they both live under the same moon and same stars [00:22.000]And all of sudden the distance between them, vanishes [00:25.000]So I tell people everywhere I go,we should always remember all of this: [00:30.000]No matter what color we are [00:32.000]No matter what language we speak [00:34.000]No matter the form of our politics [00:37.000]Or the expression of our faith [00:39.000]We all live under the same moon and same stars [00:43.000]We’re not so very far apart. [00:49.000]It's funny how you sound as if you're right next door [00:54.000]when you're really half a world away [00:59.000]I just can't seem to find the words I'm looking for [01:04.000]to say the things that I want to say [01:08.000]I can't remember when I felt so close to you [01:12.000]it's almost more than I can bear [01:17.000]Though I seem a half a million miles from you [01:21.000]you're in my heart and living there [01:25.000]And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see [01:30.000]it's the same old sun up in the sky [01:34.000]And your voice in my ear is like heaven to me [01:38.000]like the breezes here in old Shanghai [01:48.000]There are lovers who walk hand in hand in the park [01:52.000]and lovers who walk all alone [01:55.000]There are lovers who lie unafraid in the dark [02:00.000]and lovers who long for home [02:04.000]Oh, I couldn't leave you even if I wanted to [02:10.000]you're in my dreams and always near [02:13.000]And especially when I sing the songs I wrote for you [02:17.000]you're in my heart and living there [02:21.000]And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see [02:26.000]it's the same old sun up in the sky [02:31.000]And your face in my dreams is like heaven to me [02:34.000]like the breezes here in old Shanghai [02:39.000]Shanghai breezes cool and clearing [02:44.000]evening's sweet caress [02:47.000]Shanghai breezes soft and gentle [02:54.000]remind me of your tenderness [02:58.000]And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see [03:01.000]it's the same old sun up in the sky [03:07.000]And your love in my life is like heaven to me [03:11.000]like the breezes here in old Shanghai [03:15.000]And the moon and the stars are the same ones you see [03:20.000]it's the same old sun up in the sky [03:23.000]And your love in my life is like heaven to me [03:27.000]like the breezes here in old Shanghai [03:32.000]Just like the breezes here in old Shanghai
