Lovers in ancient times

Now it begins -- I see it in your eyes
And I know how you feel -- you long to touch the sky
The flame of life, let it eat your heart out every night
But you're not alone

This is your world -- this is your world

Lovers in ancient time, caught in the fire
Only the strong survive -- how can we face tomorrow
Live an illusion, don't let it fade and die
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you

Spoken:
Go now, girl, don't look back. this is your one big chance
I place my fingers to your lips and I tell you my love flies with you
On a wing and a prayer, on a wing and a prayer

No muscle and bone -- rhythm is the key
There's everything to play for -- you're everything to me
The game of life -- win it and your love comes tumbling down
You'll never be alone
This is your world -- this is your world

This is your world -- this is your world

Lovers in ancient time, caught in the fire
Only the strong survive -- how can we face tomorrow
Live an illusion, don't let it fade and die
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you
Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you

Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you
Something deep inside you

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.
