[Verse 1: Tony Bennett & George Michael]
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 ways?
How do you not run out of new things to say?
And since we know we're always changing
Why should it be the same?
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
That in her eyes I may not see forever
Forever
[Bridge: George Michael & Tony Bennett]
If you can be the best of lovers
Yet 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
[Verse 2: Tony Bennett, George Michael & Both]
I know the way I feel for her (How do you keep the music playing?)
It's now or never (How do you make it last?)
More I love the more that I'm afraid
That in her eyes I may not see forever, forever
If you can be the best of lovers
Yet 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, never, never ends
