I know how I feel 
Lonely in the black of night 
There can be no love for me now 
Nobody listens when the words ain't right 
And you get into someone else 
It's hard for me to know 
Who's lovin' who 
And where do I stand 
What did I do it all for 
There's no one I could love more 
I did it for your heart alone 
All that I try to be growin' inside to me 
I can be strong if you're there 

And there is someone belonging to someone 
And I got no one belonging to me 
I live in a world where the face of an angel 
Is all that a fool can see 
You got the power to find me whenever I'm lost 
Where are you ? Who are we? 

I believe in time 
Can eat away a heart of stone 
And baby if I leave you too late 
It's just a feather and the bird has flown 
It's colder when the fire dies 
With all the trouble I'm in if I lose you too 

Then what is my life 
If I don't want to go through 
Anything without you 
Couldn't be life at all 
I could be lyin' on 
You are the only one 
We didn't make it by chance 
And there is someone 
Belonging to someone 
And I got no one belonging to me 
I'm caught in a world on 
The edge of tomorrow 
It's all that a fool can find 
I don't belong in the arms 
Of a love that is lost 
Nowhere to cry 
There must be something we 
Can say my love 
Something except goodbye 

And there is someone belonging to someone 
And I got no one belonging to me 

And there is someone belonging to someone 
And I got no one belonging to me

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 »
