SACRED TRUST
By
Bee Gees
***************
I meant to fight it to the finish but you made me forget
And though it’s possible I’m dreaming, don’t wake me yet
You know I love you
I can’t see the day for night
You know I twist around and turn around and then I give in
You end up in control of me it’s really a sin
I don’t know what you’re doing to me
But I know it’s a crime
And baby I can’t last another night
And every moment is eternity
And from the depth of my soul
Can’t let another day go by
I follow my heart right up to the end
As far as the eye can see
I’m faithful and true and living up to
Your sacred trust in me
I’ll never give out to somebody else
I know where my arms should be
I’m faithful and true and making it through
Your sacred trust in me
Your sacred trust in me
You take me and you break me and you do what you please
I stumble and I tremble and I’m weak at the knees
The vision that lies before me is not reality
I tell you I can’t wait another night
For every secret that your soul reveals
And you and I may get to know
That it’s real, that it’s real
I follow my heart that leads me to you
And all that my love should be (You know I’m talking to you)
And you can be sure I’m doing it for
Your sacred trust in me
I’ll never give out to somebody else
There’s nowhere my heart should be (You know I’m calling to you)
I’m faithful and true and living up to
Your sacred trust in me
Your sacred trust in me
I follow my heart right up to the end
As far as the eye can see
I’m faithful and true and living up to
Your sacred trust in me
I’ll never give out to somebody else
I know where my arms should be
I’m faithful and true and making it through
Your sacred trust in me
Your sacred trust
I follow my heart that leads me to you
And all that my love should be (You know I’m calling to you)
And you can be sure I’m doing it for
Your sacred trust in me
I’ll never give out to somebody else
There’s nowhere my heart should be (You know I’m calling to you)
I’m faithful and true and living up to
Your sacred trust in me
Your sacred trust
WALKING BACK TO WATERLOO
***************
I wish there was another year another time.
When people sang and poems rhymed.
My name could be Napoleon.
A thousand ships.
A windy sail, so huge and high it’s tall enough to touch the sky.
It’s beautiful but hard to find.
But I just wasn’t born in time.
Walking back to Waterloo again.
Where do I begin ?
In the brand new street, you can get a good seat at the end.
I can dream of growing trees and things that live and grass that’s green
In meadows that have never been.
But I still place my trust in the Queen.
What is life when a man is pressured based on wrong or right.
And I don’t know what it means.
There must be more we haven’t seen.
Walking back to Waterloo again.
Where do I begin?
In the brand new street, you can get a good seat at the end.
Walking back to Waterloo again.
Where do I begin?
In the brand new street, you can get a good seat at the end
I STARTED A JOKE
***************
I started a joke, which started the whole world crying,
but I didn’t see that the joke was on me, oh no.
I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing,
oh, if I’d only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
and I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I’d said.
Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,
oh, if I’d only seen that the joke was on me.

BORN A MAN
***************
When I was just a little boy , when I didn’t know
My daddy put me n his knee and showed me the way to go
He said “a woman will do her best to make a fool out of you
So be a man and stand the test and see what you can do”.
I’m glad I am born a man
I’m glad I am born a man
If you got what it takes my boy
You can always choose
Work it out before it’s too late my boy
Make sure you never lose
I’m glad I am born a man
I’m glad I am born a man
Born a man
Ev’ry woman wants her man to live and learn on her land
Where I go , baby you go
Arrangement , man and wife
I’m glad I am born a man
I’m glad I am born a man
Born a man
OVERNIGHT
***************
They say a fool never learns
You agree I’m not superstitious
You know unlucky as I’ve been
I’m still around
And you can tell me to go
I’ve been reading your true confessions
But then you don’t believe I’d let
This chance go by I, I…
Show me inside
Sorry that I’ve been so far away
You know I’m only human
It’s the call of the wild
It’s the law of the jungle
Don’t say no…
Wanna be with you
Won’t you stay with me overnight
Give a little bit to you
Won’t you stay with me stay
Pulling me to you
Won’t you stay with me overnight
It’ll be forever if you stay with me
Stay with me, stay…
As long as time will allow
You’ll be losing your inhibitions
One night is not enough
For all the love to grow
And baby you and I rule the world
Maybe I could be your magician
Just give me long enough
My spell will hypnotize, I, I…
Show me inside
Live in every corner of your heart
You know I’m only human
It’s the call of the wild
It’s the law of the jungle
Don’t say no…
Stay with me overnight
Stay
Stay with me overnight
Stay
Stay with me overnight
Stay
Stay with me stay…
Stay with me stay…
Stay with me stay…
Stay with me stay…
REALLY AND SINCERELY
***************
My mind is open now, I’m on the other side.
Though you remember my name.
And if you go away I’ll get it off somehow.
I’ll leave it all in the air. No,no.
Turn me down. Turn me down
Turn me down. Oh, how I’ve tried.
Really and sincerely I’ve tried.
There is a song, I hear it all around.
But I don’t hear a sound.
If you were with me now,I’d let you know my mind.
Love is so easy to lose. No,no.
Turn me down. Turn me down.
Turn me down. Oh, how I’ve tried.
Really and sincerely.
Turn me down. Turn me down.
