I JUST WANT TO BE YOUR EVERYTHING
(Barry Gibb)
Andy Gibb - 1977
Connie Smith - 1977
For so long
You and me been finding each other for so long
And the feeling that I feel for you is more then strong, girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more then you're asking for
Your love will turn the key
Darling mine, I would wait forever for those lips of wine
Build my world around you, darling
This love will shine girl
Watch it and see
If you give a little more then you're asking for
Your love will turn the key
I, I just want to be your ev'rything
Open up the heaven in your heart and let me be
The things you are to me
And not some puppet on a string
Oh, I, if I stay here without you, darling, I will die
I want you layin' in the love I have to bring
I'd do anything to be your ev'rything
(Instrumental Break)
Darling, for so long
You and me been findin' each other for so long
The feeling that I feel for you is more then strong, girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more then you're asking for
Your love will turn the key
I, I, I just want to be your ev'rything
Open up the heaven in your heart and let me be
The things you are to me
And not some puppet on a string
Oh, if I, if I stay here without you, darling, I will die
I want you layin' in the love I have to bring
I'd do anythin' to be your ev'rything
I, I, I just want to be your ev'rything
Open up the heaven in your heart and let me be
The things you are to me
And not some puppet on a string
Oh, I, if I stay here without you, darling, I will die
I want you layin' in the love I have to bring
I'd do anything.................FADE
