[Verse 1: Barry Gibb] Maybe there's a reason why we broke up I could dedicate my life to something new But I must have been asleep but then I woke up Working out why I was still with you All the things I wish I could have been [Chorus: Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb] Wouldn't I be someone, someone And I would be respected In the prime of my life, I'll do everything right I'll begin Wouldn't I be something, something I would get a reputation In the prime of my life, I'll do everything right I'll begin [Verse 2:Robin Gibb] Midnight stars are shining on my shoeshine Telling me the things I'm gonna be Now the hurts all gone, I've pushed them all behind me And the world is gonna fall in love with me All the things I wish I could have been [Chorus: Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb]
