HEAVY BREATHING
By
Bee Gees
***************
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.
SECOND HAND PEOPLE
***************
See the cracks upon the wall
We do not know the meaning of it all
Ain’t no fire to warm my feet
Ain’t got a nickel for a bit to ear
We’re not workin’, we’re not slavin’
Ain’t worth a brain, ’cause we’re not worth savin’
Second hand people, tall as a steeple
Softer then treacle, in a pond are we
Second hand people
Ain’t no mirror to comb my face
Just keep on going from place to place
Ain’t got no lights above my head
Don’t even bother to leave my bed
We’re not livin’ ,we’re existin’
We’re not movin’ ,just resistin’
Second hand people, tall as a steeple
Softer then treacle , in a pond are we
Second hand people , tall as a steeple
Softer then treacle ….
TEARS
***************
I started out to be the man behind the scenes
Knowing I was in above my head
For all that I could see
I never saw the truth
Now I’m alone
Heaven only knows how much I’m missing you
Knowing I had heaven in my hands
And there will be tears
Tears are mixed with rain
Keeper of my flame
Time and tide is on my side, it stands forever
There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears
I will not sleep tonight
There will be tears tonight
I will not sleep tonight
There will be tears
The silent telephone, the turning of the key
You’re still inside of me , I’m not ashamed
For all that I can do , I can’t forget your face
I call your name
Heaven only knows what I’ve been crying for , what I’m crying for
And all I’ve done to keep this love alive
Even through my tears
Tears are mixed with rain
Keeper of my flame
I will pray you’re on my side, we stand forever
There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears
I will not sleep tonight
There will be tears tonight
I will not sleep tonight
There will be tears
Soon there will be tears rollin’ down my world
Keeper of my flame
Time and tide is on my side, it stands forever
There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears
I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears tonight
I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears
I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears tonight
I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears
GIVE A HAND, TAKE A HAND
***************
I wish the world was run by all the little children
We could be happy once again
We won’t hurt when we’re like little children
And we won’t ever feel the pain
Now when my fight for life on earth is over
And I leave ’cause I can’t stay
All my love belongs to you hereafter
And we’ll all join hand another day
Ev’rybody’s got to give a hand
Ev’rybody’s got to take a hand
Ev’rybody’s got t fall in love , yeah
To make ev’rybody understand
Ev’rybody’s got to give , take a hand
I love you , yes I do
I told you a million times now
Now do you believe the words I say
All my life belongs to you hereafter
And we’ll all join hands another day
Ev’rybody’s got to give a hand
Ev’rybody’s got to take a hand
Ev’rybody’s got to fall in love , yeah
To make ev’rybody understand
Ev’rybody’s got to give , take a hand
Ev’rybody’s got to give a hand
Ev’rybody’s got to take a hand
Ev’rybody’s got to fall in love , yeah
To make ev’rybody understand
Ev’rybody’s got to give, take a hand
DIMENSIONS
***************
Hindsight, don’t make it right
She give me trouble enough
And she’s a ball of light
I’m in the tunnel of love
With the American dream
And I was born too soon
A little good luck, never stuck
She got me climbing the walls
Got me hard as a rock
Within a city of sin, she got a city block
And she was barkin’ at the moon
She likes to show
So many sides to her
And I’d be the one to know
When am I gonna go to your dimension
When am I gonna go to where you are
When am I gonna go to your dimension
Dimensions of each other keep us goin’ strong
Black knight, take a bite
She can double it up
And she’s a way of life
And whether dead or alive
She got a fix on me
And I was dancin’ in the fire
White steam, never seen
In every muscle and bone
She was a love machine
And she could wrestle me down
And get a taste of me
In her web of desire
She changed my world
How can the body know
It’s touchin’ me or her
I’VE GOTTA GET A MESSAGE TO YOU
***************
The preacher talked to me and he smiled,
Said, “Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.
Now for once in your life you’re alone,
but you ain’t got a dime, there’s no time for the phone.”
I’ve just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
I told him I’m in no hurry,
but if I broke her heart, won’t you tell her I’m sorry.
And for once in my life I’m alone,
and I’ve got to let her know just in time before I go.
I’ve just go to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
Well I laughed but that didn’t hurt,
and it’s only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
Now I’m crying but deep down inside,
well I did it to him, now it’s my turn to die.
I’ve just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on
