LET THERE BE LOVE
By
Bee Gees
***************
Let there be love, so I can be loved by you
In Paradise Avenue
Let there be life, so everyone lives to love
Let it happen to me and you
I am a man, so take me for what I am
I’ll never have everything, but let there be love
Let there be love, let there be love
I can be nothing, I can be something
I’ve got to give you my life
I’m tired of living without your giving
I’ve got to get you for my wife
Feeling’s getting stronger
Can’t hold on much longer
I never begged, but I’m begging now
Let there be love, so I can be loved by you
on Paradise Avenue, oh yo
Let there be life, so we can live to love
And let it be both of us
I am a man, so take me for what I am
I’ll never have everything, but let there be love
Let there be love, let there be love
THIS IS WHERE I CAME IN
***************
I’ve seen the story
I’ve read it over once or twice
I said that you say
A little bit of bad advice
I been in trouble
Happened to me all my life
I lie and you lie
And who would get the sharpest knife
You know I shouldn’t be somebody like that
I’m not the kind of man to throw his hat into the ring and
Go down without following through
The day turns into night
Go down without following through
The day turns into night
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
Hope rides on
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
Time has gone
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
This is the danger zone
This is where I came in
They know not what they do
Forgive them of their sins
They know they cannot take away
What you have given me
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
Fade into colour
Colour into black and white
Under the bedclothes
Everything will be alright
I know that you know
Nothing ever stays the same
Said so, I said so
The love will never speak its name
Never gonna find somebody like you
Beauty with a brain and a body too
I could never make a move on a woman that leads me on
She’s got a little bit of something for everyone
It’s a little too late and the wolf is on the run
Hope rides on
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
Time has gone
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
I always told myself
I would regret this day
That I would fall apart
And watch you walk away
That you would cry out loud
And I would stand aside
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
I can fly
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
Time goes by
But I’ll go anywhere
Yes, I’ll go anywhere with you
This is the danger zone
This is where I came in
They know not what they do
Forgive them of their sins
They know they cannot take away
What you have given me
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
This is just where I came in
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
LAMPLIGHT
***************
Alons, viens encore, cherie.
J’attendrai patiemment sous la lampe dans la vieille avenue.
Then I may end.
She had things to buy.
I close my eyes .
Yet I don’t know why.
I gave her money; said she knew someone.
And she said she won’t be long.
Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning.
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine.
I sat alone with my thoughts and laughed .
Then saw your face in an old photograph.
I didn’t think that I could live without you but what am I to do ?
Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning.
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine
Come home again dear. I have waited year after year
under the lamp in our old avenue.
If all in the world that’s laughing, why should it make us cry?
Ah…
WHISPER WHISPER
***************
Whisper, whisper. What have you got ?
I got something that you need a lot .
Stop me and buy one.
You can see better but you better not.
Listen mister can you help me ?
It’s my sister . Show her how to fly.
Stop me and try one.
You can see ev’rything blowing by.
Whisper whisper. Keep it quiet.
If you like it you can try it too.
Stop me and buy one.
I am illegal that mean so are you
Whisper whisper what have you got?
I got something that you need a lot.
Stop me and buy one.
You can see better but you better not.
Whisper, whisper, whisper, whisper
I am man and you are women.
Who needs marriage? We are humans all.
If I could please you, arouse and ease you ,
then it would please you if I should call.
Doesn’t matter what your name is.
I can do a million things to you .
No explanations; sexual patience.
Most of the nation’s doing it too.
No no no no no
I CAN’T LET YOU GO
***************
Do you love me women , truly do ya?
Can you feel this feeling going through ya?
Are you of the mind that we should live together through this night?
Or tell me you’re my virgin queen and it may not be right.
But don’t make me say , I can’t let you go
And it’s breaking me down
Just thinking of your face and it won’t be around
Just look at me now
I feel a stranger inside , stealing my pride
I can’t let you go
And it’s breaking me down ’cause you won’t be around
When all this world of ours is falling apart
I’ll keep on hanging on and fixing my heart
‘Cause ev’ryone is just like me they’re praying in the sun
And I may be that lucky man surviving when they’re gone
But don’t make me say , I can’t let you go
And it’s breaking me down
Just thinking of your face and it won’t be around
Just look at me now
I feel a stranger inside , stealing my pride
I can’t let you go
And it’s breaking me down ’cause you won’t be around
Just look at me now
I feel a stranger inside , stealing my pride
I can’t let you , can’t let you go
And it’s breaking my down ’cause you won’t be around
Just look at me now , I can’t let you go
Just look at me now , I can’t let you go
Just look at me now , I can’t let you go
Just look at me now , I can’t let you go
