Loose Talk Costs Lives

(B Gibb)

Loose talk costs lives

People like to play

We're basically the same

We never lie

Loose talk costs lives

Don't look at me as if you don't remember me at all

There was laughter, there was pain

But I won't make the same mistakes I made

You are too beautiful to me

I hide my tears inside the rain

Am I the soul you cast your spell upon

I had control and now it's gone

Or are you someone who controls my heart and mind

And I will never say a word

And I will never say goodbye

People like to play

We're basically the same

We never lie

I can see that someone hung a sign around your heart

And it reads "do not return"

And there is so much trouble I could cause

Someone as beautiful as you

You can feel my candle burn

And I still recall some starry night

We had it all, we held on tight

I promised I would come to you and catch you if you fall

And they will never know about us

For just one moment you were mine

People like to play

We're basically the same

We never lie

Loose talk costs lives

For just one moment, just one moment, you were mine

(Our moment held in time)

People like to play

We're basically the same

We never lie

Loose talk costs lives

Loose talk costs lives

People like to play

We're basically the same

We never lie
