Ev’ry man alive has got to have someone. So what will I do when, baby, you are gone? Don’t let me down. Don’t walk on me.
-The Bee Gees, Monday’s Rain
See the cracks upon the wall. We do not know the meaning of it all. Ain’t no fire to warm my feet. Ain’t got a nickel for a bite to eat. We’re not workin’, we’re not slavin’. Ain’t worth a brain, ’cause we’re not worth savin’. Second hand people, tall as a steeple. Softer than treacle, in a pond are we second hand people.
-The Bee Gees, Second Hand People
Ain’t no mirror to comb my face. Just keep on going from place to place. Ain’t got no lights above my head. Don’t even bother to leave my bed. We’re not livin’, we’re existin’. We’re not movin’, just resistin’. Second hand people, tall as a steeple. Softer then treacle…
-The Bee Gees, Second Hand People
For my friends, they put me down, so I go from town to town. They all say that I’m a clown. They play high and I play down. They play high and I play.
-The Bee Gees, Playdown
In the night is such a lonely time. I dream of you and that’s a sign. It means that I am still a fool. And I am still so much in love with you.
-The Bee Gees, Big Chance
Bear with me there’s bound to be a chance to heal the wound and start back our romance.
-The Bee Gees, I Don’t Know Why I Bother With Myself
We used to cry on each others shoulder. Now that I’m older, she wanders ahead. Now that she’s found love, I still hear the sound of silvery bangles, remain in my head.
-The Bee Gees, Jingle Jangle
A tint of red, each time I see you with another. Just because I was your lover, jealous. I get so angry I could cry.
-The Bee Gees, Tint Of Blue
A tint of blue, deep down inside my heart, each time I see you. It would take a lot to ease my pain from all these chains.
-The Bee Gees, Tint Of Blue
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.
-The Bee Gees, Born A Man
I’m glad I am born a man.
-The Bee Gees, 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.
-The Bee Gees, Born A Man
I remember you at night, palm trees softly swaying. I remember all the words you were softly saying. Glass house upon the hill so big and still, the shady lane. It’s ours, my love, until the day we say auf wiedersehen.
-The Bee Gees, Glass House
One minute, woman,please, I’d go down on my knees to say to you with a word so true “I love you”
-The Bee Gees, One Minute Woman
I may be old but I’ve been told at least I’m still alive. Fly me young, fly, and tomorrow, yeah. Get me up. I been working so, so very hard.
-The Bee Gees, Close Another Door
Every single word you hear is coming from this heart of mine. I never felt like this before… a love like yours so young and fine. And now as I try to forget you, it doesn’t work out any way. I loved you such a long time ago… but in my eyes you’ll always be. Every single word you hear is coming from this heart of mine. I loved you such a long time ago… don’t know why… And I don’t know why… baby…
-The Bee Gees, I Can’t See Nobody
The more I try the more I fail, I’d like to run away. But if I try you pass me by, I know that I can’t stay. Though I know I will be lonely but our love will never die. I close my eyes, everyday, I close my eyes.
-The Bee Gees, I Close My Eyes
If I remember all of the things I have done, I’d remember all of the times I’ve gone wrong. Why do they keep me here?
-The Bee Gees, World
Though I’m saying I know it’s only the weather. ‘Cause every time it rains you are gone. And I’m blue.
-The Bee Gees, And The Sun Will Shine
And the sun will shine if just for you. And the trees will talk to the skies whispering lies, heaven will pass to me, yeah.
-The Bee Gees, And The Sun Will Shine
Birdie told me I must get over you somehow. And she told me never to think of you right now. But it’s hopeless to say how can I forget the way she used to love me. I think about her in my time, know in my mind it’s over.
-The Bee Gees, Birdie Told Me
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts. The day I left her standing on her own.
-The Bee Gees, Massachusetts
Feel I’m goin’ back to Massachusetts, something’s telling me I must go home.
-The Bee Gees, Massachusetts
How can I prove? There is no reasoning or asking why. Only to prove. I love you deeply with the sun in my eyes. 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?
-The Bee Gees, With The Sun In My Eyes
