We don't have to try running from each other,
I read your eyes, you don't have to bother.
Maybe we'll survive if we don't discover
One life ties to another.

'Cause the world won't turn
If the sun won't rise.
And the stars won't burn,
In a broken sky.
And the wind won't surf
If the ocean's dry.
And my heart won't work
If you say goodbye.

If you say goodbye, [x3]
My hearts in trouble.

I'd rather die holding one another,
Your hand in mine, it's easier to suffer.
I understand why the world is out of colour,
One life ties to another.

'Cause the world won't turn
If the sun won't rise.
And the stars won't burn,
In a broken sky.
And the wind won't surf
If the ocean's dry.
And my heart won't work
If you say goodbye.

If you say goodbye, [x3]
My hearts in trouble.
Oh,
If you say goodbye, [x3]
My hearts in trouble.

Oh, before it never mattered,
And oh,
Oh, before it never mattered,
And oh,
Ohhh...

'Cause the world won't turn
If the sun won't rise.
And my heart won't work
If you say goodbye.

If you say goodbye, [x3]
My hearts in trouble.
Oh,
If you say goodbye, [x3]
My hearts in trouble.

    Proper lyrics:

    We don't have to try running from each other, I read your eyes, you don't have to bother. Maybe we'll survive if we don't discover One life ties to another.

    'Cause the world won't turn If the sun won't rise. And the stars won't burn, In a broken sky. And the wind won't surf If the ocean's dry. And my heart won't work If you say goodbye.

    If you say goodbye, [x3] My hearts in trouble.

    I'd rather die holding one another, Your hand in mine, it's easier to suffer. I understand why the world is out of colour, One life ties to another.

    'Cause the world won't turn If the sun won't rise. And the stars won't burn, In a broken sky. And the wind won't surf If the ocean's dry. And my heart won't work If you say goodbye.

    If you say goodbye, [x3] My hearts in trouble. Oh, If you say goodbye, [x3] My hearts in trouble.

    Oh, before it never mattered, And oh, Oh, before it never mattered, And oh, Ohhh...

    'Cause the world won't turn If the sun won't rise. And my heart won't work If you say goodbye.

    If you say goodbye, [x3] My hearts in trouble. Oh, If you say goodbye, [x3] My hearts in trouble.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
