She came on like the night, and she held on tight
And the world was right when she made love to me
We were free
She moved in like a friend
Started loving me
And I thought I'd found my heaven in her arms
But the morning when I woke up
I was here and she was gone
Now I'm hanging on
Maybe you can tell me

[Chorus]
How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong?
Oh, my darling
How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong?

Where did she go
When I need her close to me?
And the perfect story ended at the start
I thought you came forever
And you came to break my heart
Now I'm hanging on
On the chance that you'll come back to me
Oh, my love

[Chorus]
How a love so right can turn out to be so wrong?
Oh, my darling
How a love so right can turn out to be so wrong?
Oh, my darling

[Bridge]
I could take it in my stride
Start living for the moment
Maybe half the things we sought were never there
Simply open up our eyes
And break it down to size
It isn't really fair

[Chorus]
How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong?
Oh, my darling
How a love so right
Can turn out to be so wrong?

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.
