Bee Gees Best 2000 Lyrics
1.Massachusetts

Feel I'm goin' back to Massachusetts,
Something's telling me I must go home.
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own.

Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco,
Gotta do the things I wanna do.
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you.

Talk about the life in Massachusetts,
Speak about the people I have seen,
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
And Massachusetts is one place I have seen.

I will remember Massachusetts...
























2.Turn Of The Century

Ev'rythings happening
At the Turn Of The cent'ry.
I'm gonna buy myself a time machine
go to the Turn Of The Cent'ry.
And all those people passing by
And the town crier makes his cry
At the Turn Of The Cent'ry,
Turn Of The Cent'ry.

Big wide hats and men is spats
At The Turn Of The Cent'ry.
With those horseless carriages
At The Turn Of The Cent'ry.
And there are lots of things to do
on a bicycle built for two
At The Turn Of The Cent'ry,
Turn Of The Cent'ry.

Ev'rythings happening
At The Turn Of The Cent'ry.
I'm gonna buy myself a time machine
go to The Turn Of The Cent'ry.
And all those people passing by
And the town crier makes his cry
At The Turn Of The Cent'ry,
Turn Of The Cent'ry.
Turn Of The Cent'ry.


3.To Love Somebody

There's a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to lived with you
Lived with you
There's a way everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got ?
You don't know what it's like, baby
You don't know what it's like

To love somebody
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

There's brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, so very blind
I'm a man, can't you see
What I am
I live and breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got ?


4.Saved By the Bell

I cried for you, I cried for you
I cried for two, I lied for you

Saved by the bell on your own carousel
Now who can tell, if you'll love that man as well
Now I'll walk down our great lane

I died for you, I died for two
I'll live for you, I'll give to you

Saved by the bell on your own carousel
Now who can tell, if you'll love that man as well
Now I'll walk down our great lane
Now I'll walk down our great lane
Now I'll walk down our great lane


5.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.

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 one me.


6.Close Another Door

Many years have passed, it seems,
And I am all alone.
I've sent the children far away
To some obscure unknown.

(Chorus)
It's so sad,
So sad.
Close another door.
Listen to my eyes.
Close another door.
You're much too old to work,
So won't you run away?

I was young, I used to say
That age won't bother me.
The life I had was very sad,
It all went out to sea

(repeat Chorus)

Though the sun is in outside,
The rain is in my hair.
Now my life is lived inside,
My home is in my chair.

(repeat Chorus)

(slower...repeat...fade)
Let me go.
Send me flowers and
Put me on a plane.
I've paid before,
So I've been told
At least I'm alive


7.Words

Smile an everlasting smile, a smile can bring you near to me.
Don't ever let me find you down, cause that would bring a tear
to me.
This world has lost its glory, let's start a brand new story
now, my love.
Right now, there'll be no other time and I can show you how, my
love.

Talk in everlasting words, and dedicate them all to me.
And I will give you all my life, I'm here if you should call to
me.
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say.
It's only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart
away.


8.I Close My Eyes

Look at me I'm riding high
don't know what's wrong with me.
Can't you see I'm not the guy
that I pretend to be.
Though I know I will be lonely
but our love will never die
I close my eyes, everyday, I close my eyes.
Ah......

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.
Ah...

Ah....
Though I know I will be lonely
but our love will never die
I close my eyes, everyday, I close my eyes
I close my eyes. I close my eyes. I close my eyes.


9.New York Mining Disaster 1941

In the event of something happening to me,
there is something I would like you all to see.
It's just a photograph of someone that I new.

Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones.

I keep straining my ears to hear a sound.
Maybe someone is digging underground,
or have they given up and all gone home to bed,
thinking those who once existed must be dead.

Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones.

In the event of something happening to me,
there is something I would like you all to see.
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew.

Hvae you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones.

11.Cucumber Castle

There were the trees, see the grass, a thing gets inspired.
Said 'This is the place I will try,' and he did.
Stood in the dark ,sat a man who beckoned him in,
But leaving his grass was a sin, but he did.

Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.
He saw the light in the cellar reflect in his eyes,
Yet early that morning was he to receive a surprise.
Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.
Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.

Said 'Are you leaving or are you receiving my friend,
Doest need any money till then' and he did .
He said 'I'm the owner,not you, and this is my stead,
So give it to me now I'm dead, and he did , said:

Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.
Cucumber Castle be ever so humble it's home.


12.I Can't See Nobody

I walk the lonely streets; I watch the people passing by.
I used to smile and say hello. Guess I was just a happy guy.
Then you happened,girl, this feeling that posessses me.
I just can't move myself. I guess it all just had to be.

I can't see nobody...no, I can't see nobody.
Mine eyes can only look at you...you.

I used to have a brain; I used to think of many things.
I watched the falling rain and listened to the sweet birds sing.
Don't ask me why, little girl. I love you and that's all I can
say.
You're ev'ry ,ev'ry breath I take.You are my nights; my night
and day.

I can't see nobody...no, I can't see nobody.
Mine eyes can only look at you...you.

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...

I can't see nobody...no, I can't see nobody.
Mine eyes can only look at you...you.
I can't see nobody...no, I can't see nobody.
Mine eyes can only look at you...you.


13.First of may

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
we used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
some one else moved in from far away.

(chorus)
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of May.

The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
the day I kissed your cheek and you were gone.

(chorus...)

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do...


14.World

(Chorus)
Now, I found, that the world is round
and of course it rains everyday.

Living tomorrow, where in the world will I be tomorrow?
How far am I able to see?
Or am I needed here?

(chorus...)

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?

(chorus...)
And (chorus...)
And (chorus...)
And (chorus...)


15.I.O.I.O.

I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.

You know I love getting up in the morning
When the sun first strikes the trees
All the morning birds that sing above
Still bring back memories
Of a girl who stood beside me
When the rights I did were wrong
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing

I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.

She never told me why she left me
But the letter say goodbye
Now my mornings are for wondering
And my nights to reason why
Why a stranger comes to steal the love
Of a girl I had to hold
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing

I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I sing, I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I sing, I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.

I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.
I.O. I.I.I.I.I.I.O. I.O.


16.I've gotta get a message to you

The preacher talked to me and he smiled.
He said,come and walk with me. Come and walk one more mile.
Now for once in your life you've alone.
But you ain't got a dime.There's no time for the phone.
I've just gotta get a message to you.Hold on hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.Hold on hold on.
I've told him I'm in no hurry.But if I broke her heart then.
Won't you tell her I'm sorry.And for one in my life,I'm alone.
And I've gotta let her know.Just in time before I go.
Hold on hold on.Well,I laughed but that didn't hurt.
But it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
Now,I'm crying but deep down inside.
Well,I did it to him...Now it's my turn to die.
I've just gotta get a message to you.Hold on hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.Hold on hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through.Hold on hold on.
I've just gotta get a message to you.Hold on hold on.
