He did sing "Don't Cry for me Argentina" in Evita, which sort of fits the lyric Dave has posted (I can think of "of what a circus, oh what a show ...")?
I love these clue ones

Steve, I'm still clue ... less.

I don’t know Steve, it was a not very well educated guess.

I have only seen two musicals, Hair and Oh Calcutta.

We have the correct artist now from Wolfie (Mr Essex)

Could the song be from Evita?

Some nifty, nautical navigating there Rob.

On a roll here Plummy - I wasn't at all confident that anyone would recognise the lyrics, hence the clue.

Once again, over to you.

Thank you Plummy.

Something from the early 1980’s.

Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Throughout the night, no need to fight

A small clue - this group hail from my part of the world, Guildford.

I am going with Cry Me a River?

Well done, that's the one. Over to you Plummy.

It's Something Just Like This ( The Chainsmokers and Coldplay ).

Try this:

Lying in my bed, I hear the clock tick and think of you
