I WAS THE CHILD
By
Bee Gees
***************
When I was you we walked to school
And I carried your books ’cause even then I was a fool
But you grew up and said goodbye
I still remember the things that made me cry
For all too soon my story ends
I found a love, now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you , loving me like you used to do
I was the child
I held your hand and I told you things
And I made you believe, believe in fairy tales
and diamond rings
hen all too soon my story ends
I found a love ,now not even friends
Tell me why
loving you , loving me like you used to do
I was the child
Ah …..
SONGBIRD
***************
Go on with your song, bird – you can’t go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before
Though your wings are broken the sky is so wide open
And the wind is waiting for you like an open door
Though you go so far away, your voice will still be heard so well
You’ll never really ever know how beautiful you are
When the moon is on the rise I’ll try to make my songbird fly
I wonder if he ever will – and if he really did, how far
Go on with your song, bird – you can’t go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before
Though your wings are broken the sky is so wide open
And the wind is waiting for you like an open door
Though you go so far away, your voice will still be heard so well
You’ll never really ever know how beautiful you are
When the moon is on the rise I’ll try to make my songbird fly
I wonder if he ever will – and if he really did, how far
Go on with your song, bird – you can’t go wrong bird
You will go on and on, bird, through the open door
Go on with your song, bird – you can’t go wrong my bird
You will go on and on, bird, like you did before
Like you did befo
REACHING OUT
***************
Watching ev’ry day go by , living in a foolish game
Just the way I feel today
Living my life without you
Never hear a single word , living in a lullaby
Praying ev’ry tear I cry
Living my life without you
And ev’rywhere you go I fly (I love you with a special feeling)
And darling till the day I die (baby never stop believing)
I’ll be reaching out, I’ll be reaching out , Ahh….
Reaching out (there’s a woman goin’ through me)
I’ll be reaching out ( got a chance to hold you to me ) Ahh..
Ev’rything is lonely and I need you
Living my life forever , forever
Watching ev’ry day go by
Living on the one I love
What I got is not enough
Living my life without you
And I believe in yesterday (yesterday was once tomorrow)
With love, with love wide open ev’ry way (baby you’re the light I follow)
I’ll be reaching out , I’ll be reaching out , Ahh
Reaching out (there’s a woman going through me)
I’ll be reaching out (got a chance to hold you to me)
Ev’rything is lonely and I need you
Living my life forever
I’ll be reaching out
I’ll be reaching out
Reaching out
I’ll be reaching out
Living my life forever
Reaching out , I’ll be reaching out
BE WHO YOU ARE
***************
Be who you are
Don’t ever change
The world was made to measure for your smile
So smile.
Those crazy dreams
we threw, we threw away
I never been alone with you
I never could
They say
That love will find a way
And love will never be set free
I won’t ever let you see
You could not understand
You never will
Be who you are
I bless I bless your name
And all that summer madness caused the rain
And we.. we
The glory that we made
My love will grace the halls of time
A love that never can be mine
You could not love me then
I love you still
Be who you are
Seize life and find a way
And I will be that shadow loving who you are
Be who you are
We were
I DON’T WANNA BE THE ONE
***************
It’s too late to turn back now
There ain’t no space back there
And how did I begin to lose my self control
How did I begin to lose my self control
There ain’t a thing that you could give me
With the love forever with me
That’s the only thing that satisfies my soul
That’s the only thing that satisfies my soul
I don’t wanna be the one
Remember it was only fun
Two strangers touching in the sun, it had to end
I don’t wanna be the guy to tell you things that make you cry
You know as well as I know , you’re my only friend
There ain’t a thing that you could give me
With the love forever with me
That’s the only thing that satisfies my soul
That’s the only thing that satisfies my soul
I don’t wanna be the one
Remember it was only fun
Two strangers touching in the sun, it had to end
I don’t wanna be the guy to tell you things that make you cry
You know as well as I know ,you’re my only friend
I don’t wanna be the guy to tell you things that make you cry
You know as well as I know you’re my only friend
You know as well as I know you’re my only friend
You’re my only friend
My only friend
My only friend
IF I CAN’T HAVE YOU
***************
Don’t know why
I’m surviving every lonely day
When there’s got to be
no chance for me
My life would end
and it doesn’t matter how I cry
My tears of love
are a waste of time
if I turn away
Am I strong enough to see it through
Go crazy is what I will do
If I can’t have you
I don’t want nobody baby
If I can’t have you, oh oh oh oh
If I can’t have you
I don’t want nobody baby
If I can’t have you, oh oh oh…
Can’t let go
and it doesn’t matter how I try
I gave it all so easily
to you my love
To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through
Go crazy is what I will do
If I can’t have you
I don’t want nobody baby
If I can’t have you, oh oh oh oh
If I can’t have you
I don’t want nobody baby
If I can’t have you, oh oh oh…
