Eaten Alive

(b. gibb/m. gibb/m. jackson)

Animal stalking you at night
I'm a sucker for someone
And i got the prey in sight
Lying on a bed of leaves
In the modern times
You forget and let your spirit breathe

Capture me my blood is red
Another victim of your ritual
For you my skin is shed
Ecstacy ain't what you find
In the modern world
One flick of my tongue changes
The meaning of the world
And you say

That's impossible
That's not impossible to do, oh
And you digest what i can see
The taste of you can be

I don't wanna get eaten alive
'cause you're so dangerous
No more hearts i can trust, you see
I don't wanna get eaten alive
To be eaten alive
Eaten alive
I don't ever wanna be
Eaten alive

Now i got you on the run
And the quicker my senses
And the chance is, i'm the faster one
I know the universal law
Primeval times
With a little stimulation
It'll come once more, and you say

That's impossible
It's not impossible to do, oh
And you digest what i can see
The taste of you can be

I don't wanna get eaten alive
'cause you're so dangerous
No more hearts i can trust
You see
I don't wanna get eaten alive
To be eaten alive
Eaten alive
I don't ever wanna be
Eaten alive

I don't wanna get eaten alive
'cause you're so dangerous
No more hearts i can trust
You see
I don't wanna get eaten alive
To be eaten alive
Tie me to a tree, crawl all over me
You can rip my shirt, drag me in the dirt
I will be your slave, anything you say
I don't ever wanna be eaten alive

I don't wanna get eaten alive
'cos you're so dangerous
No more hearts i can trust, you see
I don't wanna get eaten alive
'cos you're so dangerous
No more hearts i can trust, you see
I don't wanna get eaten alive
'cos you're dangerous
No more hearts i can trust, you see
I don't wanna get eaten alive
To be eaten alive

Gotta do her, crawl all over me
You can rip my shirt, drag me in the dirt
I will be your slave, anything you say
I don't ever wanna be, eaten alive

(b. gibb/g. bitzer)

You say it's better to behave
Just like i never met you
Why is it only i can cry
And you can say goodbye in a minute
Don't you remember i was your friend
And you can just erase all those days
And those tender reflections we bear
We promised not to fall in love
But it was there and soon i was in it
Already i was more than your friend
It's harder for me

No words or expressions
Can make you hungry for me
I've never seen you on your knees
Like i'm beggin' you

Don't give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
I'll never give another anymore than i gave to you
Will never come around

Always and always
You told me love was ever and ever
Together the dream will come true
If we turn back
If you turn back to me

You won't be sorry if you stay
I'll stake my life upon it
Little flame inside us can be fed
Take our precious love to the limit
It's the one that you need and it's your friend
It's harder for me

No words or expressions
Anything that makes you worry
I've never seen you on your knees
And i'm in a hurry
How is it you can break my heart
But you can't be sorry
Push away whoever you please
But i'm begging you

Don't give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
I'll never give another
Anymore than i gave to you
Will never come around, oh
Don't give up, give up on each other
We can't lose tomorrow
Better treasure what we've got
I'll never give another anymore than i gave to you

(b. gibb/r. gibb/m. gibb)

Hello baby, it's a long time
I know you're here
I feel you close to me
So much to say but
Making all the words
I save them all inside
Then i see you and they disappear
Like leaves beneath the snow
And life don't wait for everyone
And yesterday, i let you go

I'm watching you tonight
And i waited for so long
I've been living on your memory
In a world where we were one
And you told me you could make it on your own

I'm watching you tonight
And it's making me cry
When i lost you, i lost everything
But our love should never die
Not mine, my love is born to be your love
Oh baby
To make history near you
But the moment when i see me in your eyes
You're gone, you're gone

You can say goodbye if you want to
I love you but i'll try to understand
But in my soul i know it's meant to be
Together you and me

But i know you came to fade away
Like voices in the wind
And i wonder if you feel my love
It's stronger than it's ever been

I'm watching you tonight
And there's no other one
All the love we gave eternally
Now it's dying in the sun
Not mine, my love was born to be your love
Oh baby
To make history near you
But that moment when i see me in your eyes
You're gone, you're gone, you're gone

(b. gibb/r. gibb/m. gibb)

I thought i'd already touched the sky
I got to know you and i don't know why
But all of my life couldn't mean as much
As just being touched by you

I never thought of me growing up
Got my directions but the road was rough
It's only the dream of a teenage queen
But somehow i made it through

And i'd love to see
Those faces of those friends i left behind
And even those who spoke for me
Just trying to be kind
And no one said i love you just the way
I know you do

And i love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you
Thank you just for choosing me
That we should be
Being in love forever
And ever, ever

I stare and wonder at what i found
I just discovered why the world is round
Round in a circle my arms will be
And doing the same as you
It ain't right it's only for you and me
Only the lonely do it seperately
Keep it alive on the food of love
But only the chosen few

In my life you see some changes in me
We listen and we grow
Any child that clings to childish things
Is trying to let go
And up to now
I'd thought i'd seen as far as i could see

And i love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you
Thank you just for choosing me
That we should be
Being in love forever
And ever, ever

And i love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you
Thank you just for choosing me
That we should be

I love being in love with you
Living inside your heart
The giving and the taking
You are not forsaken
I love being in love with you

(b. gibb/r. gibb/m. gibb)

I must be crazy they don't know what we've done
You are my lover
Even though i know it's wrong
I hear them talking
But whatever they do
I need to love you
And if i love you couldn't we make it

Got someone loving me
He won't say goodbye
He's been so good to me
I don't wanna make him cry
I need you both to love me
It's up to you
You can help me
You're the reason i can't decide

Breakin' my bones and shakin' my nerves
Till i just can't see tomorrow
Looking at him and looking at you
And i don't know who to follow
I'll never win in the state i'm in

It's a crime of passion, i'm bad to love you
Whenever i'm with you, i lose control
It's a crime of passion for me and for you
Whatever i give you
It's just too late to save my soul
I need to love you
My desperation is the power to go on
Each night i prayed for love
I'm at the mercy of
And if you don't hear me now
Then i'll be the only one
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be the only one

I saw him yesterday
The questions he asked
I think he knows about us
Did we move too fast
How can we hide it
When we know it's a lie
Keep our love under the covers
The pressure is too high

Why do i get myself tied up
Why tangle with love you borrow
I should have been known as a one man woman
Should have been one love but oh no
Never be a cure for the human law

It's a crime of passion, i'm bad to love you
Whenever i'm with you, i lose control
It's a crime of passion for me and for you
Whatever i give you
It's just too late to save my soul
I need to love you
My desperation is the power to go on
Each night i prayed for love
I'm at the mercy of
And if you don't hear me now
Then i'll be the only one
Don't wanna be, don't wanna be the only one
