'LOVE AT THE GREEK' - The Greek Theatre 1977

This song from Neil Diamond's 1974 album, 'Serenade', was originally written for the movie 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull' (1973). Neil Diamond had planned it to be the closing song of the film, but he was unable to complete it in time for it to be included.

I'VE BEEN THIS WAY BEFORE (Album: Serenade - 1974 - Age: 33)
NEIL DIAMOND
This live version: Love at the Greek - 1977

I've seen the light
And I've seen the flame
And I've been this way before
And I'm sure to be this way again

For I've been refused
And I've been regained
And I've sung my song before
And I'm sure to sing my song again
Once again

Some people got to laugh
Some people got to cry
And some people they got to make it through
By never wondering why

Some people got to sing
Some people got to sigh
Some people never see the light
Until the day they die

But I've been released
And I've been regained
And I've been this way before
And I'm sure to be this way again
Once again

One more time again
Just one more time…
