(Barry Gibb, Ashley Gibb & Stephen Gibb)

[Barbra:]
Are you ready for the day
That we've prayed for
Already holding what is real
You know the soul finds its own evolution
And this is the only love I feel
Can I tell ya
I'm keeping up the strength
I've gotta try
'Cause you ain't getting past this heart of mine
I'm out here waiting for you
With all I've got to give
And I accept this life we live

[Both:]
I'll be your lover
And I'll be your friend
I'm gonna follow you
Right to the end

[Barbra:]
I wasn't made to tell you lies
I only came to make you realize

[Both:]
I'll be your hero
And I'll be your clown
You pick me up
And let me down

[Barbra:]
Don't make me stumble, don't make me wait
'Cause come tomorrow will be to late

[Both:]
Come tomorrow
Come tomorrow

[Barry:]
I got to turn away my face
'Cause you blind me with your light
Can you catch up to me
You know I love you in the black of night
This sacred bridge you walk
This journey has begun
We try, we try to carry on

Are you listening
You get to find the things in life
That get you through

[Barbra:]
One more day...

[Barry:]
And deep inside the things you want love never knew

[Barbra:]
One less chance...

[Barry:]
Let me make it happen
This world we have foreseen

[Barbra:]
Hmmm...

[Barry:]
And I will tell you how I feel

[Both:]
Love will be better for wearing your ring
I'm gonna give you everything

[Barry:]
I wasn't made to tell you lies
I only came to make you realize

[Both:]
I'll be your hero
And I'll be your clown
You pick me up
You let me down

[Barry:]
Don't make me stumble, don't make me wait

[Both:]
'Cause come tomorrow will be to late

Come tomorrow...
Come tomorrow...
Come tomorrow...
Oh! Come tomorrow...
Come tomorrow...
Come tomorrow...
Come tomorrow...

(Barry Gibb, Ashley Gibb & Stephen Gibb)

You may be someone else's sweetheart
Fighting someone else's war
And if you suffer for the millions
Then it's what you're fighting for

Someone believe in only light of day
Someone strong enough to show the way
Someone everyone believes in
Someone who will stand by you

And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know is how I'm gonna stay
For a stranger in a strange land
Far away
And love will make your spirit shine
I feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away

May we share the most tomorrows
I will hear you when you cry
Should we let it come between us
Never knowing how we live or die
I will walk you though the pouring rain
I will help you learn to live and love again
Give 'em hell before you go to heaven
By send you home again

And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away

And somewhere in the lonely night
Your flame is burning bright
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away

And just to see your spirit shine
To feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away
Ooh...

Far away
Oh...Far away...
Ooh...

. . .


(Barry Gibb & Ashley Gibb)

I saw you looking in the mirror
I saw you fighting with your conscious
I think you need a little time away and I may give you mine
And you can find me in the moon glow
You find me underneath your pillow
And we can find a little hideaway where we can go

I'm in the corner with a friend of mine
I stood with my defenses down
So many things that bring you close to me
That we be led astray
The wonder of desire
To love the things we can not touch

Maybe we turn and say goodnight and walk away
And then the story can go on without a single tear
You take a chance on it and change the history
And for a time we fall in love with someone
So who am I to say the words that say we've found each other
Can we imagine any hideaway is right
And our adventure down in paradise
Born upon the wind
And we are one with the night

Maybe we shuffle of to Rio
A little Rio de Janeiro
And then I get a little chance to say
I'm falling into you

And you and I can change the world if we just try
This lonely heart of mine has found a mission for your light
To make the sense of it
And solve the mystery
It's just the love you forever leave with someone
So who am I to say the words that say we've found each other
Can we imagine any hideaway is right
And our adventure down in paradise
Born upon the wind
And we are one with the night

And our adventure down in paradise
Born upon the wind
And we are one with the night
Hmmm hmm...

. . .


(Barry Gibb & Ashley Gibb)

You can say what you got to say
Wherever you go baby
I will find a way
I'm ready to go anywhere you choose
It's up to you

You decide if I live or die
Wherever you go baby
So will I
I'm ready to accept your point of view
It's up to you

And there's something about that way you smile
Every touch leaves me helpless
Every moment drives me wild
I never saw the cause that made you lie
And never said goodbye inside

You can go where you got to go
Wherever you lead, baby,
I will follow
I'm ready to be all you want me to
It's up to you

And I walk in the dark and the candle burns
Out of place your face is missing
Come the day that you'll return
My love and hope
This moment stops in time
The reason and the rhyme
Inside

You can go where you got to go
Wherever you lead, baby,
I will follow
I'm ready to be all you want me to
It's up to you
It's up to you
You, baby,

It's up to you
Oh...It's up to you...
Oh...It's up to you...

. . .


(Barry Gibb & Ashley Gibb)

Closer,
Sight and the sound,
Roller coaster,
That merry go round.

We can't wait for that show to start,
That fire that feeling your heart beat
We have what others can't tear apart
Taking over

I fight to the end for the night of my life
And nothing can get in my way
And love is a river and river is ocean
Take up your pleasure
And all that you cry for

I go to the wall for the night of my life
I play every game that you play
I shout out my struggles
And send out a message to you
No early warning
I'm under the radar

You're closer,
Sight and the sound,
Roller coaster,
That merry go round.

And baby no one would go that far
To close all those doors behind us
Until the top of the world we climb
Taking over.

I fight to the end for the night of my life
And nothing can get in my way
I shout out my struggles
And send out a message to you
No early warning
I'm under the radar

Calling out
Take me to the night
Take me to the morning

I fight to the end for the night of my life
And nothing can stand in my way
And love has a colour and colours are many
Blue is for lonely and red is for danger

I go to the wall for the night of my life
I play every game that you play
I shout out my struggles
And send out a message to you
No early warning
I'm under the radar

Calling out
Take me to the night
Give no early warning
Tell me what I do for you, babe
Calling out
Get me to the night;
Tell me that you want it
Tell me what I do for you.

You're closer,
Sight and the sound,
Roller coaster,
That merry go round

. . .


(Barry Gibb, Barbra Streisand & Stephen Gibb)

[Barbra:]
This is me talking to you
Tell me what your heart can do ?
Take me by surprise, whatever you see
You'll never be alone with me

I close or open the door
Telling you that less is more
You cannot disguise whatever you do
No one is above the law

In these dark and troubled times
People just surviving
We live a double life

You'd be safe and warm at home
Something else is going on
We don't have to kiss and say no more about it
And if your eyes are watching me

[Both:]
Baby, life could be so beautiful
And we become invisible
The pleasure is the punishment
For the crime

[Barbra:]
Break away the chains that bind
It's not enough to be satisfied
It's knowing how it all begins
Or knowing where the heart belongs
And we all make mistakes

[Both:]
It's your heart and my heart
And no one can take part
And our love
Is love above the law

[Barry:]
So you decide we go insane
I know what you came here for
Whether you are mine
I'll never be sure
We'll ever be above the law
On this dark and stormy night

[Barbra:]
(Hmm hmm...)

[Barry:]
Where these walls may hide us

[Barbra:]
(The walls may hide us...)

[Barry:]
You sigh and let me in
You let me hold you in these arms of mine

[Barbra:]
(One flame inside)

[Barry:]
Tomorrow is eternity

[Barbra:]
(Temptation eyes)

[Barry:]
And we may get to kiss and say no more about it

[Barbra:]
(No tears to cry)

[Barry:]
And if my eyes are watching you

[Both:]
Baby, life could be so beautiful ([Barry:] So beautiful)
And everything is possible ([Barbra:] Everything is possible)
And we become invisible ([Barbra:] We become invisible )

It's your heart and my heart
And no one can take part
I'll always be with you
It's what I'm living for
The end of my rainbow
Is outside your window
And our love is one love
Love above the law ([Barbra:] Love above the law )
It's your heart and my heart
And no one can take part
I'll always be with you
It's what I'm living for ([Barbra:] It's what I'm living for )

The end of my rainbow
Is outside your window
And our love is one love

[Barbra:]
This is me talking to you
Tell me what your heart can do?

[Fade]

. . .


(Barry Gibb & Ashley Gibb)

I look around and I can't speak
I am in silence, and my world is hollow
Pretending to be living there
And maybe there was something between us
I cannot see beyond your face
What I am searching for is someone's shadow
And in the forest of the night
Am I unwise to let the story end

I would not hurt you
I would could never
Your dark became my night
I would not walk one step without you ever
I would not be alive today
Without your love
Along the way

You try one dive
You pull out
You should understand
Your shooting from the heart when your dreaming

For one moment there is someone loving me
And no one else can change that place and time
You go through the motion
But all your emotion is gone

You made me yours., I made you mine
And if I make this promise I deliver
Beneath it all I know
That looking back I lived on your laughter
And there were diamonds in the dust
And there were moments we could never follow
And in the morning rain
I always told you at the closing of the day

I will not leave you
I would never
Your dark becomes my light
I will not take one step without you ever
I would not be alive today
Without your love... Without your love
Along the way...

. . .


(Barry Gibb, Ashley Gibb & Stephen Gibb)

They tell us lies
They try to tell us who we are
But we have grown
And we remember in the future not to cry
You could be an angel
Look in your ancient eyes

What do you see?
Knowing what the power of your future could be
To fall and then to rise
It's knowing how it was and how that sets you free

All the children will send out
Love to everyone
All the children will dance and
Sing for you

Through the rhythm of ages
Blinded in the sun
All the children will dance

And sing for you

So let them talk
They won't be hiding any secrets from
The eyes of a child
Things can never be but what they are to you
You could be an angel
Make all your dreams come true

All the children will send out
Love to everyone
All the children will dance and
Sing for you

Through the rythm of ages
Blinded in the sun
All the children will dance

And sing you

Stand up
Freedom is for everyone to know
Tell them what your truth is when you play

Stand up
Freedom is the message in your song
In the light of what is swept away
There's someone there to catch you
When you fall


[Chorus: (Barbra's text in brackets)]
All the children will send out
Love to everyone
All the children will dance and
Sing for you (High above)

Through the rhythm of ages (See how they run)
Blinded in the sun (Got to be sure)
All the children will dance and (Watch how the shine)
Sing for you (This is love)

All the children will send out (Just like before)
Love to everyone (This is the place)
All the children will dance and (This is the time)
Sing for you (High above)

Through the rhythm of ages (See how they run)
Blinded in the sun (Got to be sure)
All the children will dance and (Watch how they shine)
Sing for you (This is love)
All the children will send out (Just like before)
Love to everyone (This is the place)
All the children will dance and (This is the time)
Sing for you (High above)

Through the rhythm of ages (See how they run)
Blinded in the sun (Got to be sure)
All the children will dance and (Watch how they shine)
Sing for you

[Barbra:]
High above
High above
This is love
High above
High above
High above
This is love
This is love
This is love...

[Fade]

(Barry Gibb, Ashley Gibb & Stephen Gibb)

One golden dawn
One summer night
With nothing left to say

We left the dream begin
It was carried on the wind
And it wandered away

One golden sky
One spark of light
Forever will remain

And the song of the storm
Brought us close
Kept us warm
All alone making love
In the rain

Gone is the world outside
Home on the turning tide
True love will find the sun
And know the reason why

You make me hunger for
You whispered mi amor
Over the ocean's roar
And the night will become
Our golden dawn

Two hearts as one
No tears to cry
With you I have it all

If love can never die
I'm not afraid to fly
But how far must I fall

One silver song
One lullaby
For all the love we make

It's the look in your eyes
It's the moon on the rise
It's the sound of the heart
That you break
Gone is the dark of night
Call on the early glow
Send down the birds of love
That circle us below

And still I will hunger for
You whispering mi amor
Over the ocean's roar
And your arms reach for me
And the shine on the sea
And the night will become
Our golden dawn...

. . .


Maybe I don't wanna know the reason why
But lately you don't talk to me
Darlin' I can't see me in your eyes
I hold you near but you're so far away
And it's losing you I can't believe
To watch you leave and let this feeling die

You alone are the living thing that keeps me alive
And tomorrow (tomorrow)
If I'm here without your love
You know I can't survive
Only my love can raise you high above it all

Don't throw it all away
Our love , our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love , our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love

We can take the darkness
And make if full of light
But let your love flow back to me
How can you leave and let this feeling die
(Happy room) This happy room
Would be a lonely place when you are gone
And I won't even have your shoulders for the crying on
(No other love)No other women's love
Could be as true , I'm begging you

Don't throw it all away
Our love , our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love , our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love

We changed the world we made it ours to hold
But dreams are made for those who really try
This losing you is real
But I still feel you here inside

Don't throw it all away
Our love , our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love , our love
Don't throw it all away
Our love...

. . .


(Barry Gibb & George Bitzer)

A child that hides behind a chair
Almost afraid to grow
Without you there
Whisper words that make you see
What you've come to mean to me

A voice that rises from the heart
The hunger seizes me
And tears my soul apart
And serving only to renew
How I came to feel for you

Through your love I'd see forever
We became as one
I never saw you turn away
My love was blind
You call me when your storm is over
Crying over love that I can give you
When the night is colder
Holding on to me

'Cause it's so hard letting go
And it's so hard not to cry
With your face that lies
You memorize the reason why

And when the love is gone
Then one of us will know
It's so hard letting go
Foolish that I still believe
That love should never die
It makes me cry to witness where the story ends
All the lovers in the world
Will echo all the words
That I will leave you
When the night is lonely
Only goes to show

That it's so hard letting go
And it's so hard not to cry
And I kneel and pray for yesterday
When you were mine

And when the love is gone
Then one of us will know
It's so hard letting go.
