FALLEN ANGEL
By
Bee Gees
***************
Fool in the night on the stair
With the light by the window
Out in the jungle of life she was
Yearning to go
All of the years I’ve been there for the tears
She will sell you
Out in the city she search for the face
That she knew
Did you believe that a love so alive
Could be over
Caroline
Fallen Angel
Caroline
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Fallen Angel
I’m so lost
Tonight, lonely tonight
Lonely tonight
Fool is the father who clings to the
Child he is losing
Mother too weary to question
The wisdom of youth
There with your head in your hand
As you pray to her picture
Out in the rain she would search
For somebody to hold
Did you believe you could find
What you need with a stranger
Did you believe that a love so alive
Could be over
CAN’T KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN
***************
No, you can’t keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can’t stand on firmer ground
When love is the question I got enough
Ooh, with lips so sweet
Our love just can’t be beat, my darling, oh yeah
A love like yours and mine
Can stand the test of time, my darling, oh yeah
But for tomorrow – tomorrow never comes
Love is the secret – goes living on
No, you can’t keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can’t stand on firmer ground
When love is the question I got enough
Just when I need you, show me the way
You came into my world – turned my night to day
What good is a man without a woman?
But for the trouble – trouble always comes
Love is the secret – goes living on
No, you can’t keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can’t stand on firmer ground
When love is the question I got enough
Ooh, your love is strong
Keep me forever, you’re my darling, oh yeah
A love like yours and mine
Can stand the test of time, my darling, oh yeah
But for tomorrow – tomorrow never comes
Love is the secret – goes living on
No, you can’t keep a good man down
When you got a good woman to keep it up
No, you can’t stand on firmer ground
When love is the question I’ve got enough
HEAVY BREATHING
***************
Well, this is my last connection , I been slowing up the line.
Ain’t no satisfaction in this troubled head of mine.
Gotta get back to the highway , gonna get back to where I know.
’cause sooner or later there’s gonna be a showdown ,
Gotta go man, gotta go.
Hell, I’m so so tired , so so tired.
And I don’t know where I’m gonna start.
It’s only heavy breathing in the dark.
Ain’t nobody’s sweetheart, ain’t nobody’s fool.
And if the sun don’t set on my house babe,
I’d be the last man to blow my cool.
I feel my body shake.
Well, there’s so much left to say.
Spend my life anticipatin’.
Gonna find a way.
Hey, I’m so so tired , so so tired.
And I don’t know where I’m gonna start.
It’s only heavy breathing in the dark.
So so tired.
So so tired.
And I don’t know where I’m gonna start.
Only heavy breathing in the dark.
Only heavy breathing in the dark.
It’s only heavy breathing in the dark.
Well, I don’t believe in ev’rything you say just to save my soul.
You know there’s got to be a way better than a big black hole.
Gotta take me from my suicide.
Now you know it’s love I crave.
You know we got to live like this from the cradle to the grave.
So so so so tired.
So so so so tired.
I’m so so so so tired.
WING AND A PRAYER
***************
Lovers in ancient times
Now it begins – I see it in your eyes
And I know how you feel – you long to touch the sky
The flame of life, let it eat your heart out every night
But you’re not alone
This is your world – this is your world
Lovers in ancient time, caught in the fire
Only the strong survive – how can we face tomorrow
Live an illusion, don’t let it fade and die
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
Go now, girl, don’t look back. This is your one big chance.
I place my fingers to your lips and I tell you my love flies with you
On a wing and a prayer, on a wing and a prayer
No muscle and bone – rhythm is the key
There’s everything to play for – you’re everything to me
The game of life – win it and your love comes tumbling down
You’ll never be alone
This is your world – this is your world
This is your world – this is your world
Lovers in ancient time, caught in the fire
Only the strong survive – how can we face tomorrow
Live an illusion, don’t let it fade and die
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
I WILL
***************
Is this your voice I heard
Speaking’ my name, I hang on every word
Every letter that I write, every day every night
But I just can’t live and learn
Talking to myself and believing
I could live without you
Living on the lies and believing that love would stay
Listen to me please and I’m beggin on my knees before you
But you don’t show the way
No you don’t show the way
He may change your world and someday he may break your heart
And you deserve no better
If you love him I will step aside
I offer this to you
So leave me as I love you still
And if he don’t keep you warm
You know I will, you know I will
So this is who you are
And the rest of my life I dedicate to you
And I know that love can’t wait
There’s a moon and a sun
And a dream that sees me through
A little bit of change and a little bit of my desire
I was shaken all over and I didn’t know what to say
I’m the man in the middle and the middle man catches fire
But I don’t know how to go away
No I don’t know how to go away
He became your hero somehow
I become your clown
And you deserve no better but my love is here
And all I found I offer this to you
So leave me as I love you still
And if he don’t take your heart
You know I will
It ain’t wise, it ain’t smart
You say there’s no doubt about it
If you decide you got somebody else
When I want you to myself
I can’t stop, I can’t look
I can’t say no more about it
But my love will go on
Just as long as the river flows
He will be your king someday
He may let you down
Follow to the letter that my love is real
And what I found I offer it to you
So leave me as I love you still
And if he don’t keep you warm
You know I will
ALIVE
***************
Maybe you talk too high, man.
Maybe I talk too slow.
But you’ve got to live a little bit faster
’cause you’ve got a little less time to go.
I ain’t lost and I ain’t searching.
But then you know me very well.
And I can’t change the wind and make it blow the other way.
I’m a fool and I can tell .
That I’m alive and that’s all.
That I can get up just as fast as I fall.
And I can walk and run but I’ll never crawl.
And in the end it doesn’t matter at all.
I don’t know about the people that I read about in books.
And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.
I know I should be going somewhere, I just can’t arrive .
There’s a reason for believing that I’ve never been alive , alive.
I ain’t lost and I ain’t searching.
But then you know me very well.
And I can’t change the world and make it go the other way.
I’m a fool and I can tell.
That I’m alive and that’s all .
That I can get up just as fast as I fall.
And I can walk and run but I’ll never crawl.
And in the end it doesn’t matter at all.
I don’t know about those people that I read about in books.
And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.
I know I should be going somewhere, I just can’t arrive.
There’s a reason for believing that I’ve never been alive.
I know I should be going somewhere I just can’t arrive.
There’s a reason for believing that I’ve never been alive, alive, alive.
