Bee Gees The Ultimate Bee Gees Lyrics
1.Staying Alive

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man:no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
since I was born.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Time's effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Well now, I get low and I get high,
and if I can't get either, I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes.
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose.
You know it's all right. It's OK.
I'll live to see another day.
We can try to understand
the New York Time's effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me yeah. Stayin' alive.

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
since I was born.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Time's effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me yeah.
I'm Stayin' alive.


2.Night Fever

Listen to the ground. There is movement all around.
There is something going down. And I can feel it.
On the waves of the air. There is dancing out there.
If it's something, we can share, we can steal it.
** And the sweet city woman, she move through the light
controling my mind and my soul.
When you reach for me, and the feeling is bright.
*Then I get night fever. We know how to show it.
***Here I am . Praying for this moment to last.
Living on the music so fine. Borne on the wind.
Makin it mine.(Repeat*) In the heat of our love.
Don't need no help. For us to make it. Gimme just
enough to. Take us to the morning. I got fire in
my mind. I got higher in my walking. And I am glowing
in the dark. I give you warning.(**) (*) (***) (*)


3.You Should Be Dancing

My baby moves at midnight

My woman takes me higher
my woman keeps me warm

What you doin' on your back aah
What you doin'on your back aah?
You should be dancing, yeah

She's juicy and she's trouble
She gets it to me good
My woman gives me power
Goes right down to my blood

What you doin' on your back aah
What you doin'on your back aah?
You should be dancing, yeah
dancing, yeah

My baby moves at midnight
goes right on till the dawn
My woman takes me higher

4.Too Much Heaven

* Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by, I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love any more
It's as high (wide) as a mountain (river) and harder to climb *

Oh, you and me, girl, got a lot of love in store
And it flows through you and it flows through me
And I love you so much more than my life
I can see beyond forever
Everything we are will never die

** Loving's such a beautiful thing
Oh, you make my world a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away **

(Repeat *)

Oh, you and me, girl, got a highway to the sky
We can turn away from the night and day
And the tears we had to cry, you're my life
I can see a new tomorrow
Everything we are will never die
Loving's such a beautiful thing
When you are to me the light above
There for all to see our precious love

(Repeat * and ** then * to fade)


5.How Deep Is Your Love?

Bee Gees 1977

And when you rise in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again


when you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love ( x 3)
I really need to learn
Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me*

I believe in you
You know the door to my barest soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think that I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love (x 3)
I really need to learn
Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

repeat *

How deep is your love how deep is your love
I really need to learn
Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be


6.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 said
'Till I finaly 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 said
'Till I finaly died which started the whole world living
Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me
Oh no that the joke was on me


7.Paying the price of love

How did you find there was somebody
More than you want me
I never understood
Maybe I have never had you
I have been lonely for you lately
I can't wait another day
And when you let me get you close to me
You run and leave me

Paying the price of love
The start of my end over you
When you're doin' it for someone
Who'll never be free
Now is all there will ever be

No more to live without you
All the nights I dream about you

Deep in the dark of the night
I'm a man on a mission
But safer with you home
Never would I make you sorry
You are the only drug I crave
And I've been saving everyday
I held it all inside, I pray
You don't forget you got me

Paying the price of love
My heart in my hands over you
But the battle is just not fair
You'll never be free
That emotion is always replaying

You know the strongest heart
Is broken when it falls
You turn and walk away
And let it die
I got this picture in my head
Of you in someone else's bed
And I am torn apart
I'm torn apart inside

I'll build my world around you
I was nothing when I found you
Paying the price of love

Paying the price of love
The start of my end over you
When you're doing it for someone
Who'll never be free
Now is all there will ever be

Paying the price of love
My heart in my hands over you
But the battle is just not fair
You'll never be free
That emotion is always replaying


8.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.


9.Jive taking

It's just your jive talkin'

Jive talkin'
so misunderstood, yeah
Jive talkin'
You really no good

Oh, my child

Leavin' me lookin'

Jive talkin'
You're telling me lies, yeah
Jive talkin'
You wear a disguise
Jive talkin'

Jive talkin'

And if there's somebody
You'll love till you die
then all that jive talkin'

Jive talkin'

10.Tragedy

Here I lie
in a lost and lonely part of town
Held in time
In a world of tears I slowly drown
Goin'home
I just can't make it all alone
I really should be holding you
Holding you
Loving you loving you

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one to love you you're
goin' nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're
goin' nowhere
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on

Night and day
there's a burning down inside of me
Burning love
With a yearning that won't let me be
Down I go
and I just can't take it all alone
I really should be holding you
Holding you
Loving you loving

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one to love you you're
goin' nowhere
Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no-one beside you you're
goin' nowhere (repeat and fade)


11.You win again

I couldn't figure why
You couldn't give me what everybody needs
I shouldn't let you kick me when I'm down
My baby I find out everybody knows that
You've been using me
I'm surprised you let me stay round you
One day I'm gonna lift the cover
And look inside your heart
We gotta level before we go
And tear this love apart

There's no fight you can't fight
This battle of love with me

You win again so little time
We do nothing but compete
There's no life on the earth
No other could see me through
You win again some never try
But if anybody can, we can
And I'll be, I'll be following you
Oh, girl

Oh baby I shake you from now on
I'm gonna break down your defences one by one
I'm gonna hit you from all sides
Lay your fortress open wide
Nobody stops this body from taking you
You better beware, I swear
I'm gonna be there one day when you fall
I can never let you cast aside
The greatest love of all


12.RUN TO ME

If ever you're got rain in your heart.
Someone has hurt you and tom you apart.
Am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me.
And let it be like they said it would be.
Me loving you girl and you loving me.
Am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me.


Run to me, when ever you're lonely.
Run to me, if you need a shoulder.
Now and then you'll need someone older.
So darling, you run to me.

So darling, you run to me.


And when you're out in the cold.
No one beside you and no one to hold.
Am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me.
And when you've got nothing to lose.
Nothing to pay for and nothing to choose.
Am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me.


Run to me, when ever you're lonely.
Run to me, if you need a shoulder.
Now and then you'll need someone older.
So darling, you run to me.


Run to me, when ever you're lonely.
Run to me, if you need a shoulder.
Now and then you'll need someone older.
So darling, you run to me.


13.Words

Smile an everlasting smile
A smile could bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you gone
'Cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost it's 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
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
It's only words, and words are all
I have to take your heart away


14.One

I feel my heartbeat,
when you run your fingers through my hair.
(Yeah) I can feel you,
I can feel you by my side when you're not there.
(Yeah) Just as my life fades to darkness
you you make me see the light.
Show me that my search is over
I pay the price, I pay the price.

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.
Do it always, brighter than the eye can see, we hide the sun.

The taste of love is sweeter like honey on the vine,
like the wind that feeds the fire, two souls become entwined.
Someday baby you and I should be one, one.

VERSE 2:
So I'm standing 'round this corner
Tall enough to touch the New York sky, oh yes
My love is so blind
I just cannot hear or see the world go by, oh yes
Someone can love so completely
One kiss should break the sea.
Truth can be stranger than fiction
This love is real
This love is real.

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.
Do it always, brighter than the eye can see, we hide the sun.

Ah we are one, we are one.

VERSE 3:
I will follow
Count on me, I'll never let you down, oh yes
My devotion
If love is an ocean I'll surely drown, oh yes
You'll be my only possession
I'll be a slave to you
We hold the power together
Just me and you
Just me and you.

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.
Do it always, brighter than the eye can see, we hide the sun.
Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

[You know my life is in your hands,
and every breath you take is planned
and all this love goes on forever.]

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.
Do it someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.
Do it someday Baby, you and I should be one, one....
(Repeat to Fade)


15.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...


16.More than a woman

Oh, girl I've known you very well
I've seen you growing everyday
I never really looked before
but now you take my breath away.

Suddenly you're in my life
part of everything I do
you got me working day and night
just trying to keep a hold on you.

Here in your arms I found my paradise
my only chance for happiness
and if I lose you now I think I would die.

Oh say you'll always be my baby
we can make it shine, we can take forever
just a minute at a time.

More than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, oh, oh, oh.

There are stories old and true
of people so in love like you and me
and I can see myself
let history repeat itself.

Reflecting how I feel for you
thinking about those people then
I know that in a thousand years
I'd fall in love with you again.

This is the only way that we should fly
this is the only way to go
and if I lose you I know I would die.

Oh say you'll always be my baby
we can make it shine, we can take forever
just a minute at a time.

More than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, more than a woman to me
more than a woman, oh, oh, oh.


17.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 ?
