[Verse 1]
Let there be love, so I can be loved by you
In Paradise Avenue
Let there be life, so everyone lives to love
Let it happen to me and you

[Chorus]
I am a man, so take me for what I am
I'll never have everything, but let there be love
Let there be love, let there be love

[Verse 2]
I can be nothing or I can be something
I've got to give you my life
I'm tired of living without your giving
I've got to get you for my wife

[Bridge]
Can't hold on much longer
The feeling's getting stronger
I never begged, but I'm begging now

[Verse 1]

[Chorus]

Bee Gees

The three Gibb brothers were very close as children and spent most of their time together. Barry was born in 1946, and his twin brothers Maurice and Robin were born in 1949. Together, they went on to become one of the most popular bands of the 1970s.

The Bee Gees have sold more than 220 million records worldwide, and functioned as a group almost continuously from 1958 to 2003, when Maurice Gibb suddenly died during a coma.
