Where are you (where are you) 
Night is day and day is night 
Where are you (where are you) 
Need you girl you're not in sight 
Our love would grow, but you leave and I know 
That you don't love me (where are you) 
I need you girl, you're not in sight 
I told you (I told you) 
I was never coming back, ah 
You told me (you told me) 
You would give my love the sack, ah 
Now as I fly, you won't tell me goodbye 
'Cause you don't love me (where are you) 

Now you give my love the sack, ah 
Now as my heart lies in pieces of eight 
You were a part of my love but too late 
I love you (I love you) 
This I think that you should know 
I'll be blue (I'll be blue) 
You are still 'cause I must 
I'd like to stay but I know you won't play 
And see things my way (where are you) 
You are still 'cause I must go 
You are still 'cause I must 
I must go (where are you )

Bee Gees

The Bee Gees were a musical group founded in 1958. The group's line-up consisted of brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio were successful for most of their decades of recording music, but they had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a pop act in the late 1960s/early 1970s, and as prominent performers of the disco music era in the late 1970s. The group sang three-part tight harmonies that were instantly recognisable; Robin's clear vibrato lead was a hallmark of their earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became their signature sound during the late 1970s and 1980s. The brothers wrote all of their own hits, as well as writing and producing several major hits for other artists. more »
