This Is Your Life
Bee Gees Lyrics

Something that I hunger for, something you deny,
I desire something that you refuse to give me,

You say I'm bad for you and, baby, so do I.
You think I'm harmful to you and I agree with that.

Don't you know that all you gotta do,
You should realize that you just need to do one thing,

You could be a lover and, baby, this is.
You could become a lover and this is the way to do it.

This is your life,
This is your own life,

Don't break it, it's who you do it for,
Don't ruin it, this is who you do it for.

It's the pain and pleasure.
It contains both agony and enjoyment.

Temptation, a victim of the law,
Temptation is restricted by the law and suffers from it.

We can talk about it.
We can discuss it.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Don't hide it, don't try to mystify how soft the flesh is.
Don't conceal it or try to make it sound more attractive than it actually is.

Get even, even if you die, don't run for cover.
Seek revenge even if it means death, don't hide from it.

Temptation, that's who you do it for,
You do it for Temptation.

This is your life,
This is your own life,

All work and no play, I won't survive,
If I work all the time without relaxation, I won't make it.

Late at night I need your company,
At night, I require your companionship.

What about me, what about you,
What about my needs and your needs,

Define ourselves as something in space,
We characterize ourselves as entities in the universe,

Not enough for everyone, everyone and as we speak,
The resources are insufficient for all, and this is currently happening.

The enemy is the mind,
The adversary is our own thoughts,

I see the future coming for you,
I envision the future heading towards you.

All the lonely days and the lonely nights,
Throughout all the solitary days and nights.

You've been searching for a love so right,
You have been looking for a love that is perfect for you.

It's a tragedy just stayin' alive, stayin' alive,
It's a calamity just to continue living, continuing breathing.

And all that.
And all those things.

Jive talking , what you doing on your back,
Trivial conversation, why are you laying down,

Jive talking, more rap less crap.
Trivial conversation, fewer lies more truth.

Times are bad, money is tight,
The times are difficult, there is not enough money.

Ain't too much heaven on a Saturday night.
Saturday nights don't provide much happiness.

Tell me now how deep is your love,
Let me know how profound your love is,

The heart is soft but the brain is tough.
The heart is sensitive but the mind is resilient.

The enemy is the mind, don't let the future fall apart,
The adversary is our own thoughts, don't let the future crumble.

This is my world too, just run to me,
This is also my world, just come to me.

If you ever want to mend that broken heart,
If you want to fix your broken heart,

I have seen those nights on Broadway too,
I have also experienced those Broadway nights.

Blaming it all, what about you,
Blaming everything, what about you,

This is your life.
This is your own life.
