BACKTAFUNK
By
Bee Gees
***************
You’re gonna fix my heart
You’re gonna free my soul
Not many learn what
The two of us can do
Or what we do it for
Sign my name
I’m gonna join your club
You give me love and there’s
Two of us to feel
Just say the word
And I’m giving my love to you
You got me backtafunk
And I’m still turning
Got me backtafunk
And I’m still turning
I can’t explain, no alibi
The rhythm got me paralyzed
You got me
You call it deja vu
Of being there before
So many lose what
The few of us can find
And never mention
You’re gonna break my will
You’re gonna take me down
So many pay
When the two of us can steal
So give what I want
And I could be a king for you
You got me
Backtafunk
And I’m still turning
Got me backtafunk
And I’m still turning
You got me backtafunk
I was so disorganized
Rhythm cut me down to size
You got me
Help me I’m in trouble deep
High as I can go
It’s no crime
There may be love on the street
And I’m bad enough
You got me drowning in my sleep
But I will find you when I wake
And it’s time
You got me backtafunk
Backtafunk to back
Backtafunk
Backtafunk to back
Backtafunk
Backtafunk to back
Backtafunk
Oh, oh I’m still turning
Backtafunk
Oh, oh I’m still burning
Backtafunk
Oh, oh I’m still learning
YOU WIN AGAIN
***************
I couldn’t figure why
You couldn’t give me what everybody needs
I shouldn’t let you kick me when I’m down
My baby
I find out everybody know that
You’ve been using me
I’m surprised you
Let me stay around you
One day I’m gonna lift the cover
And look inside your heart
We gotta level before we go
And tear this love apart
There’s no fight you can’t fight
This battle of love with me
You win again
So little time
We do nothing but compete
There’s no life on earth
No other could see me through
You win again
Some never try
But if anybody can, we can
And I’ll be, I’ll be
Following you
Oh baby I shake you from now on
I’m gonna break down your defenses
One by one
I’m gonna hit you from all sides
Lay your fortress open wide
Nobody stops this body from
Taking you
You better beware, I swear
I’m gonna be there one day when you fall
I could never let you cast aside
The greatest love of all
BAD BAD DREAMS
***************
I’ve got a notion to live in an ocean of bad bad dreams
No consolation to mixed conversation in bad bad dreams
You know we’re all alike
We can shout and scream and yell all night
It’s just a bad bad dream
Feel like I’m crying, there’s no use denying it’s all been done
For your information we still own the nation, the war’s been won
You know you’re far too late
Your only hangup is you hesitate
It’s just a bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
I’m getting it to you so you get it through you and make your choice
People start playing and back what you’re saying in just one voice
You know you’re all insane, it doesn’t matter how you play the game
It’s just a bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
Bad bad bad dream
EDGE OF THE UNIVERSE
***************
Just my dog and I
at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn’t wanna bring her
and I know it’ll make her worse.
Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there.
And they call me Shenandora in the air.
Well, I’m ten feet tall,
but I’m only three feet wide.
And I live inside an ocean that flows
on the other side.
If I came back down tomorrow,
would it all be far too soon?
And it looks like it’s gonna be a lovely afternoon.
I thought that I was going home,
and all the way I kept on prayin’.
I couldn’t stop to turn around;
well, here I am and here I’m stayin’.
It’s been my longest journey
and I’ve come through the black of night.
I was tired and hungry
when I saw your distant light.
Well, I know this may sound crazy,
but I’m sure I got here first.
I’m just me, Shenandora,
at the edge of the universe.
I thought that I was going home,
and all the way I kept on prayin’.
I couldn’t stop to turn around;
well, here I am and here I’m stayin’.
Just my dog and I
at the edge of the universe.
Well, I didn’t wanna bring her
and I know it’ll make her worse.
Now I look out on forever
and it must be nice down there.
And they call me Shenandora in the air.
At the edge of the universe…
MR. NATURAL
***************
Burning embers.
I still remember all of those little things.
But I don’t feel it so much ’cause I am so out of touch
with my heart and it won’t sing.
Rusty rainbows.
That’s how the pain goes , turning me inside out .
Well , I come home at night and you are out of my sight.
Yes. I’m dying and there ain’t no doubt.
Well, I’m dying and there’s no way out.
Well I try try try try try
Mr. Natural (come on baby)
When I walk in the rain you won’t know that I’m crying.
A smile on my face and I’m trying.
I’m trying to understand that a love that is lost can never be found again.
And you see me dance , I look like a happy man .
Just when I think I’m getting it over, an old friend I should see.
He said he knew you well , and baby I could tell .
You know he knew you more then me.
I went home laughing and inside I’m crying .
We had a special thing .
You know I loved you so much , but girl I’m so out of touch
with my heart and it won’t sing .
You know my heart just won’t sing.
Well I try try try try try .
Mr. Natural ( come on baby)
When I walk in the rain you won’t know that I’m crying.
A smile on my face and I’m trying.
I’m trying to understand that a love that is lost can never be found again.
And you see me dance , I look like a happy man.
Still I try try try try try .
Mr. Natural ( come on baby)
Well I try try try try try
Mr. Natural (come on baby)
RUN TO ME
***************
If ever you got rain in your heart,
someone has hurt you, and torn you apart,
am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me?
And let it be like they said it would be –
me loving you girl, and you loving me.
Am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me?
Run to me whenever you’re lonely. (to love me)
Run to me if you need a shoulder
Now and then, you need someone older,
so darling, you run to me.
And when you’re out in the cold,
no one beside you, and no one to hold,
am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me?
And when you’ve got nothing to lose,
nothing to pay for, nothing to choose,
am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me
Run to me whenever you’re lonely. (to love me)
Run to me if you need a shoulder
Now and then you need someone older,
so darling, you run to me.
