VOICES
By
Bee Gees
***************
Sweet voices calling wild, echoing around this child
Sweet Faith I’ll be joining you, when my story’s over
Dee doo doo doo dah dee doo doo
doo doo doo dee doo doo doo dee doo dah day
Small secrets in the wind, blowing till the end begins
Oh my children stand by me till my story’s over
Dee doo doo doo dah dee doo doo
doo doo doo dee doo doo doo dee doo dah day
If I were you and you were me those voices they would cease to be
They won’t be free to torment me again
But in my bed again last night, those voices spoke of wrong and right
They spoke of darkness and of light
They spoke of weakness and of might
The spoke of people in the snow
And distant places long ago
The spoke of fire and falling rain
Of health and wealth and death and pain
Nah….

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
HUMAN SACRIFICE
***************
I see she
Knowing what I came here for
Get a little of your womanifestation
If I can pinpoint this feeling
When you gonna let it grow
We can draw the line on where we
Let the fingers go
Now I know me
Never wanna lose control
Making me the subject
Of your warm initiation
If I can pinpoint this feeling
When you gonna let it show
You make me nervous but it’s now or never
Oh Oh
You can be my message from above
And it’s time to say you’re sorry
We can sanctify our love
Oh no
And you and I we’re written in the wind
You can’t just go movin’ out
You can’t leave me when I’m movin’ in
I want to be your human sacrifice
I want to be your lover
I want to be your human sacrifice
I want to be your lover
It’s you or me
Gotta be a kill or cure
Maybe undergo a lover’s operation
Nothing cuts like a knife can
You don’t wanna hurt me more
Look at all that damage
We could do together
Oh no
You can wear me closer to the bone
It don’t work to make me worry
But the demon seed is sown
Oh no
And you and I we’re written in the sky
You can’t make me hold on
Better you shoot my love between the eyes
Your eyes on me on this table where I lie
And what I see as fact is fiction
You won’t let me die
And I’m bound to be abused
I won’t let you cut me loose
This love is out to get you
When the blood begins to flow
BODYGUARD
***************
It hurts me when you cry
when you feel the love is gone.
Don’t give up on us when you got so much to believe in.
And so I beg you please stay yeah.
Danger in the night,
a flame that never dies
in a world of lonely faces
you need someone to survive,
a love like yours should never live alone.
Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)
we can just get ignited, lost inside
it’s only you and me.
There’s things you shouldn’t do
You lose your self-control
Should the eyes of a perfect stranger
Take you down to a new sensation
Just turn back to me
Don’t wait till it’s gone
Don’t go where you don’t belong
In a world of pain and sorrow
Every wish is your command
A heart like yours
Should always find a home.
I know the signs and I’m telling you you’re living on borrowed time,
but a heart needs love like a flower needs rain,
like I’m making you mine.
Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)
we can just get ignited,
what we had never known all our lives,
I pray it’s not too late,
I would die by your side my love
I’m the life that you save.
In this world of pain and sorrow
every wish is your command,
a heart like yours should never live alone.
I used to dream of a special one
and now I feel it’s coming true,
but I couldn’t let go, I’m a jealous guy
what you’re putting me through.
Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)
we can just get ignited, stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.
Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)
we can just get ignited,
Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)
we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.
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.
PROMISE THE EARTH
***************
It’s not worth one night on earth
Baby I know, baby I know
I won’t know whose lips you’re kissing
Baby I know
You don’t know what you have done
Baby I know, baby don’t go
You don’t know what you are missing
Baby and so
There’s not a sacrifice too strong
I’ve been alone for far too long
I’d be a fool to fail, I follow you
You must believe
Promise the earth
Give her the ocean
A kiss on the wind, goes straight to the heart
Promise the earth
With tears of emotion
If fate is a force that tears you apart
Please believe me, I would sell my soul for you
It’s not too late
And we can turn back the time
Baby I know
I lay down with you in dreams
Baby I know, baby don’t go
I was driven by this vision
Baby and so
If I could testify to you
Then I could prove my aim is true
If I am guilty or I’m innocent
You must believe
Promise the earth
Give her the ocean
A kiss on the wind, goes straight to the heart (baby believe)
Promise the earth
With tears of emotion
If fate is a force that tears you apart
You know I’m only human, so what am I supposed to say
‘Course I’m gonna miss you, and curse the day you went away
What I would surrender, if I could make you turn around
The world we’ve got together, forever is on solid ground
Oooh, baby don’t go
Baby don’t go
Baby don’t go
Baby
You’re part of every dream
Before the dawn
You must believe
Promise the earth
Give her the ocean
A kiss on the wind, goes straight to the heart (make her believe)
Promise the earth
With tears of emotion
If fate is a force that tears you apart
Baby believe
Promise the earth
Give her the ocean
A kiss on the wind, goes straight to the heart
Promise the earth
With tears of emotion
If fate is a force that tears you apart
Baby believe
Promise the earth
Promise the earth
Promise the earth
Promise the earth
You better believe
