Guilty
Barbra Streisand Barry Alan Gibb & Barry Gibb Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Barbra
Shadows falling , baby , we stand alone
Out on the street anybody you meet got a heartache of their own
(It oughta be illegal)
Make it a crime to be lonely or sad
(It oughta be illegal)
You got a reason for livin'
You battle on with the love you're livin' on

You gotta be mine
We take it away
It's gotta be night and say
Just a matter of time
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb any mountain near or far , we are
And we never let it end

We are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
Our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got a highway to the sky
I don't want to hear your goodbye

Oh!
Barry
Aaah!
Pulse's racing , darling
How grand we are
Little by little we meet in the middle
There's danger in the dark
(It oughta be illegal)
Make it a crime to be out in the cold
(It oughta be illegal)
You got a reason for livin'
You battle on with the love you're buildin' on

Together
You gotta be mine
We take it away
It's gotta be night and day
Just a matter of time
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb and mountain near or far, we are

And we never let it end
We are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
Our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got a highway to the sky

Barbra
I don't want to hear your goodbye
Barry
Don't want to hear your goodbye
Together
I don't want to hear your
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb and mountain near or far , we are
And we never let it end

We are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
Our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got a highway to the sky
Don't want to hear your goodbye




Don't want to hear your
And we got nothing to be guilty of
