THE WAY IT WAS
By
Bee Gees
***************
I don’t know how, but nights get lonely now
They keep appearing in my eyes
Such a warm and tender glow
For just one moment I remember all
The love we had was never all that bad
There were smiles and there were tears
On that special starry night, with your arms around me
Held on tight
Wasn’t that the way it was?
Two strangers reaching for a worthless cause
Wasn’t that the love we shared?
Or just the restless years when no-one cared
I don’t know why, it’s hard to say goodbye
Or even justify the end
You meant so very much to me
Then to let you go, start my life again
The love we had was never all that bad
There were smiles and there were tears
Till that special summer day
When I reached out for you, you just walked away
Wasn’t that the way it was?
Two strangers reaching for a worthless cause
Wasn’t that the love we shared?
Or just the restless years when no-one cared
When you move it like you really know how to move me
I follow you wherever you go
I just wan
WILDFLOWER
***************
Wildflower
Sacrifice everything in a wonderland that you know
It’s crazy that I’m clear out of my mind
A wonderful place to be
Wildflower
Sweet as the morning light
if I blink an eye will you go
I’m starting to care much more then I dare
A wonderful thing to see
And what do we know
First say you love me
And then say you leave me
But we never say goodbye
God you’re an angel
But even an angel must choose
Someone will hurt you and when you stop running
There’s only this love of mine
Wildflower
Sacrifice everything in a wonderland that you know
If older is wise
One look in your eyes
I’m younger then I should be
And only time
Waiting for you
to grow
First say you love me and then say you’ll leave me
But we never say goodbye
God you’re an angel
But only an angel must choose
Someone will hurt you and when you stop running
There’s only this love of mine
WITH THE SUN IN MY EYES
***************
I do not need you. Nor do I listen to the words you say.
Strongly I heed you. But ev’ry promise seems to fade away.
Who is the clown that walks in the steps of my shadow?
Is it the man who does what he can but never does it right?
How can I prove? There is no reasoning or asking why.
Only to prove. I love you deeply with the sun in my eyes.

TOKYO NIGHTS
***************
You’re crossing the water
for eastern delights,
’cause now that you’re gone
I feel like a stranger in New York tonight.
And the rhythm was new to me,
Tokyo nights
well she came in the night,
and she came in the night.
And the vision was true to me,
Tokyo nights.
Well she came for the moment
and stayed till the end wee ah.
Take me to Tokyo.
ooh wee ah.
Take me to Tokyo.
I was lonely in western days
Tokyo nights
Well she took me away, by saving life
I was down in the rising sun
Tokyo night
Well I came for the moment, and
Stayed till the end. (ooh)
Take me to Tokyo.
ooh wee ah.
Take me to Tokyo.
I am calling you,
Take me to Tokyo,
ooh wee ah.
Take me to Tokyo.
ooh wee ah.
E.S.P
***************
Dark is the night
High is the fire
Touches the sky
Love with no shape or form
I am in your mind’s eye
Just let your dreams run wild
Somewhere, out across the nation
Someone, waiting in the shadows
Listen, I don’t wanna hear
Return to, sender
Calling, I can see the future
Someday, signal with a single motion
Show me you believe in someone, somewhere
Oh baby you, you give, me
You give me the runaround
Just another night, with, you
You’re on my mind
And we got love
And love’ll take you higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher
E.S.P
I communicate with you
Tell me what it means to feel
What am I supposed to do
E.S.P
Nothing any words can say
Nothing that we know is real
But it’ll take your breath away
Your breath away
Danger, suddenly an early warning
Suddenly the soul is burning
But I still believe in someone, somewhere
Baby you, give, me
You give me the runaround
Just another night with you
I’m in your mind
And we got love
And love’ll take you higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher
E.S.P
I communicate with you
Tell me what it means to feel
What am I supposed to do
E.S.P
And love’ll take you higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher
Be prepared to make your sacrifice, tonight
Far beyond the point of no return, oh no
And we got love
And love’ll take you higher and higher and higher
Higher and higher, higher and higher
THIS IS YOUR LIFE
***************
Something that I hunger for
Something you deny
You say I’m bad for you
And baby so do I
Don’t you know that all you gotta do
You could be a lover
And baby this is
This is your life
Don’t break it
It’s who you do it for
It’s the pain and pleasure
This is your life
Temptation
A victim of the law
We can talk about it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This is your life
This is your life
If you try to help someone
You get the evil eye
You say you suffocate
Well baby so do I
Don’t you know that all you gotta do
You could be a lover
And baby this is
This is your life
Don’t hide it
Don’t try to mystify
How soft the flesh is
This is your life
Get even, even if you die
Don’t run for cover
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This is your life
Temptation
That’s who you do it for
It’s the pain and the pleasure
This is your life
Temptation
A victim of the law
We can talk about it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This is your life
Define ourselves
As something in space
Not enough for everyone
Everyone and as we speak
The enemy is the mind
I see the future coming for you
All the lonely days and the lonely nights
You’ve been searching for a love so right
It’s a tragedy just stayin’ alive
Stayin’ alive
And all that
Jive talking
What you doing on your back
Jive talking
More rap less crap
Times are bad, money is tight
Ain’t too much heaven on
A Saturday night
Tell me now how deep is your love
The heart is soft
But the brain is tough
The enemy is the mind
Don’t let the future fall apart
This is my world too, just run to me
If you ever wanna mend that broken heart
I have seen those nights on Broadway too
Blaming it all
What about you
This is your life
This is your life
Don’t hide it
Don’t try to mystify
How soft the flesh is
This is your life
It’s who you do it for
It’s the pain and pleasure
This is your life
Temptation
This is your life
