If your heart tells you so that you should leave me
Don't try to forget , you and I never met
And before you fly, one kiss should tell me why
You've forgotten all the words that you once said
 
Long as I've got you there beside me
Long as you're there to stand and guide me
The love we share no one can ever tear apart
Long as I've got this life I'm living 
Long as it's you the love I'm with then
I'll keep on calling you sweetheart

If my love for you can't make you happy
Just open the door and you won't see my anymore
And before you fly , one kiss should tell me why
You've forgotten all the words that you once said
When you said 

Long as I've got you there beside me
Long as you're there to stand and guide me
The love we share no one could ever tear apart
Long as I've got this life I'm living
Long as it's you the love I'm with then
I'll keep on calling you sweetheart
 
And I'll keep on calling you sweetheart

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 »
