I LAY DOWN AND DIE
By
Bee Gees
***************
Only last night when your arms held me tight
you told me you thought our love could last forever, forever
I was the one that gave you all the love when I thought
that our love could last forever, forever
I lay down and die
The whole world joins in
And everyone cries as teardrops begin
I lay down and die
And when darkness falls
can’t seem right there at all
I lay down and die
The whole world joins in
I lay down and die. The teardrops begin.
I lay down and die. And die. And die.
I lay down and die. The whole world joins in
I lay down and die and the teardrops begin
I lay down and die and I lay down and die
MAN FOR ALL SEASONS
***************
Everybody wants to leave
Just like you and I
I have all year to smile
A tear for every eye
Life closed it’s eyes, broke my world, now I cry
I’ve got to tell you, I’ve got the reasons
‘Cause I’m a man, a man for all seasons, alive
And would I pray
What makes the world go round
I haven’t got today
My mind is lost and found
Life closed it’s eyes and said goodbye, now I cry
But I’ve got to tell you, I’ve got my reasons
‘Cause I’m a man, a man for all seasons, alive
And would I pray what makes the world go round
I haven’t got today, my mind is lost and found
Du du du du du du du
I’m a man for all seasons
I’m a man for all seasons
I’m a man for all seasons
I’m a man for all seasons
SOUND OF LOVE
***************
See the children play the ball. See them play along the hall.
It makes me cry to see them smile.
I see the moon; I see the sky.
I see reflections in my eyes. And there’s no one to share my life.
I need a life to go my way.
So ev’ry night I pray.
Just give me someone for my life.
I feel a clown. People try to play me down .
And there’s one thing I never found .
The sound of love.
See the old man walk the lane. See him walk along in pain.
It makes me cry to see them smile.
I watch the moon; I watch the sky.
I see reflections in my eyes.
And there’s no one to share my life.
I need a life to go my way . So ev’ry night I pray.
Just give me someone for my life.
I feel a clown. People try to play me down .
And there’s one thing I never found .
The sound of love.
The sound of love .Ev’rybody loves the sound of love.
Ev’rybody loves the sound of love.
Ev’rybody loves the sound of love
GIVING UP THE GHOST
***************
There’s a young girl lost
On the edge of town
Don’t see no future, it’s blind
Don’t give up
When you’re upside down
You just keep it inside…
You know we all cry…
When we’re alone
Someone like you
And the promise that we won’t be
Giving up the ghost
Giving up the ghost
Never you and I
Giving up the ghost
Giving up the ghost
We can never stop
Giving up the ghost
Don’t be a hero
In the name of love
Don’t leave me waiting in line
No ties that bind
No ball and chain
The ghost is waiting outside
I’m searching so high
I’m searching low
Someone like you
Baby I’m not…
Giving up the ghost
Giving up the ghost
Never you and I
Giving up the ghost
Giving up the ghost
We can never stop
Giving up the ghost
You know we all cry
When we are alone
Someone like you
We know oh,
I’m searching so high
I’m searching low
Someone like you
We know oh, oh, oh
Giving up the ghost
Giving up the ghost
Never you and I
Giving up the ghost
PLAYDOWN
***************
I’m not a ghost , I am a man
I only do the best I can
Believin’ I will find a way
It’s just a price that you must pay
For my friends , they put me down
So I go from town to town
They all say that I’m a clown
They play high and I play
They play high and I play
I play the game , I see the light
I walk in day , you walk in night
Believe me boy, it ain’t no good
In doin’ what you never should
All my friends, they put me down
So I go from town to town
They all say that I’m a clown
They play high and I play down
They play high and I play
nah……
All my friends , they put me down
So I go from town to town
They all say that I’m a clown
They play high and I play down
They play high and I play
GLASS HOUSE
***************
Glass house, that once was mine , the sun will shine in on me
You, change your mind, you weren’t the kind to live on me
I remember yesterday , turn my tears to laugher
Then you left and like a stray, I came running after
I remember you at night, palm trees softly swaying
I remember all the words you were softly saying
Glass house upon the hill so big and still, the shady lane
It’s ours , my love , until the day we say auf wiedersehen
