I know I'll never see you back again with me I'll have to set you free and find somebody, find somebody The times we're here alone I thought you were my own Now that you've left my home I'll have to find somebody, find somebody I never thought that I would have to face this any time Give up the loving that was mine No, no, I never thought today would be Would be the last time, your last time with me The things I taught to you and things I never knew I'm gonna lose them, too And I'll have to find somebody, find somebody You know it's hard for me to shake this misery Give up the you in me and find somebody, find somebody Chorus: Yes, I'm gonna find me I gotta find me Find somebody Yes, I'm gonna find me I gotta find me Find somebody Listen to me, darling I know I'll never see you back again with me I'm gonna have to set you free And find somebody, find somebody Repeat Chorus

Watching You 04:10
I am watching you watching me And what I feel inside Well, I just can't say it in song I feel so, I feel so, I feel so sweet and strong about you I feel so, I feel so nice about you Thought tonight will end, our love will grow You came into my life And you touched me deep within I need you, I need you I need to feel your arms around me I feel so, I feel so right about you Some people spend their lives in search of what will not be Though dancing in the dark alone is not a fate for me What we did before is past, The future none can see But this forever feeling's made me come alive And that would not survive without you Sitting watching you Watching me and what I feel inside Well, I just can't say it in song I feel so, I feel so, oh, God, so sweet and strong about you I feel so, I feel so right about you

Broken down and funky saloons That's where I've been playing my tunes Talkers and brawlers, pick-ups and callers Talking through my song Gotta leave before too long A song could set me free (Sweet #1) I need a hit to make me free (Sweet #1) Customers they sit around And treat me like I'm someone they owned I'm singing their songs Corny and square songs Miss my rock 'n' roll Need a song to soothe my soul I need a hit to make me free (Sweet #1) A song could set me free (Sweet #1) Honey, out here the nights are lonely Out here away from you Baby, you know I love you only But I got to pay my dues Now I got this dream and with my songs I'm gonna make it come true for me and for you I need a hit to make me free (Sweet #1) A song could set me free (Sweet #1) Broken down and funky saloons That's where I've been playing my tunes Talkers and brawlers, pick-ups and callers Talking through my song Gotta leave before too long A song could set me free (Sweet #1) I need a hit to make me free (Sweet #1)

Don't you worry I won't try to make him come back to me If he doesn't want to stay Just want to tell you what would make him happy What might keep from leaving you The way he's leaving me today He takes his coffee in the morning Just a little warning Lukewarm, with cream The softer kind of singing sends his heart to winging Sing him a dream Love him in December, so he won't remember me Wasn't his fault Wasn't my fault either Before we started Guess we should've thought it through Now you've got him So before you lose him like I lost him Let me tell you what to do So he won't be leaving you He likes his cigarettes and brandy You better keep them handy, come sweet loving time Talking about the good days Trying out the new ways Songs that don't rhyme Love him in December, so he won't remember me

I've been down one time And I've been down two times But now I'm drowning Drowning in the sea of love Let me tell you all about it I've been out here so very long I've lost all my direction Baby, when you came my way Lord, I had found my protection But a strong wind came into my life And truly took me by surprise And I can't see to control these tears That's falling from my eyes I've been down one time And I've been down two times But right now I'm drowning Drowning in the sea of love Listen to me Baby, I depended on you For our love navigation But now you're gone and deserted me Can't you see that I'm in desperation I'm in the middle of a bad love storm Oh, yeah, I just ain't ready for it I look around All I can see is water coming over me I've been down one time And I've been down two times But right now I'm kind of worried, baby Baby, I'm drowning in the sea of love All I do is cry All I do is walk around and cry But now I'm drowning I'm drowning in the sea of love I've been down one time And I've been down two times But I can't control myself I'm drowning, baby I'm drowning in the sea of love But that's all right I don't mind drowning for your love That's all right Baby, I say it's alright You've got the kind of love that make me feel all right You've got the kind of love, baby, that make me cry all night

The day that I walked out your door You know I didn't feel right The second day away from home I couldn't sleep at night But things are gonna work out fine Cause I finally made the move this time Chorus: And I think I can make it Now without you And I think I can make it Now without you And I think I can make it Now without you Without you, I'm gonna see it through You never would act like a man Broke every promise you made But, honey I loved you so much Instead of leaving I stayed But everything is gonna be right Cause leaving made me see the light Repeat Chorus To think I almost made a fool of myself Trying to get back home to you There were times I felt like dying But I did what I had to do Think of all the love we shared It's a story still untold But I'm finding the strength to carry on I'm finding the strength to carry the load

Hello Again 04:11
Hello again Remember starry summer nights alone making love together In a village bar our toast to love that would last forever Hello again Remember we first heard our song And danced on the lawn with showers Of a hundred shooting stars that fell through the sky for hours Bridge: Another time we were two different people But you're still a part of me The memory lives on We had more than just a one-night-stand But certain things are meant to end It was really love So take my hand and be my friend Hello again Remember on that lonely beach Your arms kept me safe from danger Then the autumn fog rolled in To hide our love from strangers Remember crystal water days, a snowman and children's laughter How we snugged by the fire And slept till the morning after Repeat Bridge Hello again

Dancing, dancing across the old wood floor Fire flashes in your eyes and I love you more Dancing with you makes me feel so good Gets me feeling things inside, never thought I would Chorus: Is the way you move me, baby Just for me, just for me Let the music set you free Set you free Free with me, free with me, free with me Let the madness of the music set us free Magic, magic is what is like with you I think I'm feeling joy again, can't believe it's true Motion, motion, take me out of time Come and help me to forget who and what was mine Repeat Chorus Sweet music, sweet music Dancing, dancing (2x) Music's going through me, going right through me Nothing but music, sweet, sweet music Music, music makes my body free Show me that it does to you what it does to me Dancing, dancing lets the good times stay If I give it one more chance, love will find a way Repeat Chorus

I want to take you back to the high school gymnasium With the freshmen and sophomores sitting on this side And the juniors and seniors sitting on that side And way down there At the end of the gymnasium is the football team And as I walk down on the red crepe paper My high-heeled shoes are digging into my feet And my push-up bra is digging into my ribs And this tall, good-looking guy I'm holding onto over here He's the basketball captain He whispers under his breath, "Oh, shoot!" But I keep smiling as I walk down there Holding onto the arm of this big, strong man See, I'm the football princess And that's what football princesses do is smile See, I was a freshman then And you were one of the lettermen The nights were warm in victory's name I know the others knew That heaven was to be with you And when the deadly was in, of course The two of us would win "Most likely to succeed" You were going to study law And I'd be what my teachers saw A glowing smile, a college queen The woman behind the man Who seemed to need to have the best in life Including me, a faithful wife They planned the wedding in advance Unafraid to take a chance that children would succeed I'll be damned, we all pulled through To think of all the crazy things we wanted to do You would be a hero and I'd be a queen Think of all the living we'd have passed up, passed by Never would have seen it I'll be damned, we all pulled through To think of all the crazy things we wanted to do Well, it may sound silly, but I tell you it's real The older I get, a whole lot better I feel Your hair is long and braided now And I can hardly remember how It felt to have smooth, shiny legs Or what you looked like in your pegged pants I work at a mountain school My hammer and my mind as tools You were living on a farm A brand new baby in your arms They're tight, we did succeed The age is showing on my hands And you've become a wiser man Survival took us separate ways But through the years the memory stays Within my mind of how we looked When we first had our pictures took We thought the dream would never end But now we don't have to pretend That we will all succeed I'll be damned, we all pulled through To think of all the crazy things we wanted to do You would be a hero and I'd be a queen Think of all the living we'd have passed up, passed by Never would have seen it I'll be damned, we all pulled through To think of all the crazy things we wanted to do Well, it may sound silly, but I tell you it's real The older I get, a whole lot better I feel

about

I really do believe that somebody from the new distribution company made a mistake on putting the name for the album, "Cyndi Grecco" that didn't match the title, "Making Our Dreams Come True" and so did YouTube Music, Spotify and ITunes, so I changed it back to the album title, "Making Our Dreams Come True" that matches the same title of the album, shown on the front album cover of Cyndi smiling. Thanks for letting me correct the mistake.


As mentalitch.com once said:

Following the chart success of “Making Our Dreams Come True” was a full-length LP. Grecco’s second single was a disco-laced tune called “Dancing, Dancing.” But this one didn’t make a dent on the charts.

Grecco also sang another theme number for another ABC sitcom Blanksy’s Beauties, another spin-off series from Happy Days, although not as successful asLaverne & Shirley. The theme song is titled “I Want It All.”

Despite this, Grecco remained a one-hit wonder, so we should remember her whenever we happen to hear “Making Our Dreams Come True,” the tune which was popularized by one of America’s most well-loved sitcoms.
