SEA OF SMILING FACES
By
Bee Gees
***************
Yesterday was history who knows what there is gonna be when we meet again
Will you smile and tell the world about me
Can there be no doubt about me I was your friend
As I gaze upon a sea of smiling faces
Walk amongst the glow of moonlit places
The look in your eyes, to see your smile
Won’t bring you back to me
I remember things we planned
The world would never understand but we found a way
And the world of love you gave to me
Each moment is a memory, whatever they say
As I gaze upon a sea of smiling faces
Walk amongst the glow of moonlit places
The look in your eye, to see you smile
Won’t bring you back to me
For the look in your eye, to see your smile
Won’t bring you back to me
Yesterday was history who knows what there is gonna be when me meet again
Will you smile and tell the world about me
Can there be no doubt about me I was your friend
As I gaze upon a sea of smiling faces
Walk amongst the glow of moonlit places
The look in your eye, to see your smile
Won’t bring you back to me
For the look in your eye, to see your smile
Won’t bring you back to me
For the look ….
EMBRACE
***************
I don’t know what you want, I don’t hear what you said
Truth behind the lies
‘Cause I can’t see what’s in your head
And spread your wings and fly, out in a brave new world
Let this be my prayer, to keep you safe when I’m not there
Can we love and live apart, I don’t know,no, I don’t know
How can we divide the heart, I don’t know, no, I don’t know
And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
And in the cold night, under the street light
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives, I have faith in you, away from you
Like a lonely child, I will hang on every word
Embrace
Through the mists of time, lovers can be friends
The power of the human heart
The secrets in the souls of men
All my blessings in disguise
I don’t know, no, I don’t know
Reunited we will rise
I don’t know, no, I don’t know
And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
And in the cold night, under the street light
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives, I have faith in you, away from you
Like a lonely child, I will hang on every word
And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
Another daybreak, another heartache
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives
Away from you
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely life
Lonely days and nights
We can live our life
Embrace, embrace
With our separate lives
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely lives
Lonely days and nights
I will never send away
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely lives
Embrace the child inside
The lonely, lonely lives
IN MY OWN TIME
***************
I received an invitation;
‘Come to the United Nations.’
That was when I was somebody.
In my own time.
Sitting selling hot cross buns,
Thousand suckers ev’ryone.
Sounds like a nurs’ry rhyme.
In my own time.
Even when the lights go out.
Still got things to think about.
Memories I can’t call mine.
In my own time.
My own time.
My own time.
DEAREST
***************
I hear you calling me ‘dearest’ too.
My dearest, I’m nearest, then I’ve ever been before
To have you calling me ‘dearest’ once more.
My dearest, this picture, my own memory.
Wishing this picture was reality.
Where do I go from here? The Lord took you away.
And if you could see my today, I will remember you.
I will remember you
My dearest, sincerest, there’s no one but you and
Here in my heart you’re my dearest too.
Where do I go from here? The Lord took you away.
And if you could see me today, I will remember you.
I will remember you.
My dearest, sincerest, there’s no one but you and
Here in my heart you’re my dearest too.
SUCH A SHAME
***************
All that I hear doesn’t feel right. Don’t
call me ’till you’re all right. I listened
and I heard but don’t tell me. La de da.. Once in a
while he says good night. Will I care if
sometimes he is right? What a shame, it’s
the same each day. La de da… Oh how I
tried! I just sat
and then I cried. Maybe I’m wrong
or will I find out when I’m gone? There is so much fun
in my leisure. Don’t bother me, man, just stay there. If it’s a sin, I’ll
convert me astray. La de da… Come be home with me,
it’s not a shame for you to
see Oh
let it be and you’ll miss reality.
2 YEARS ON
***************
One year, two years, time goes by.
People laugh and people cry.
Ev’ry morning the clock strikes eight.
I go to work. I close the gate.
And on my way, I sing a song.
About my wife, where I belong.
If the clouds get together and talk about the weather
If it’s rain they anticipate
Baby make no mistake
Yes the storm will break but never me you see.
Two years on . Two years on .
But only you can see me.
Only you can see me.
For what I’ve got
Sir Lancelot was just a dream and I am not
For I am he with something more
It’s you and I reality.
If the cloud get together and talk about the weather
If it’s rain they anticipate
Baby, make no mistake
Yes the storm will break but never me you see
Two years on . Two years on .
But only you can see me
Only you can see me
Two years on . Two years on .
Ah….
