Bee Gees —
Tragedy

Lyrics and Music by Robin Hugh Gibb, Maurice Ernest Gibb and Barry Alan Crompton Gibb

Here I lie
In a lost and lonely part of town,
Held in time
In a world of tears I slowly drown.
Going home
I just can’t make it all alone.

   I really should be holding you,
   Holding you,
   Loving you, loving you.

Chorus:
     Tragedy,
     When the feeling’s gone
     And you can’t go on.
     It’s tragedy
     When the morning cries
     And you don’t know why.
     It’s hard to bear
     With no one to love you,
     You’re going nowhere.

     Tragedy,
     When you lose control
     And you got no soul.
     It’s tragedy
     When the morning cries
     And you don’t know why.
     It’s hard to bear
     With no one beside you,
     You’re going nowhere.


Night and day
There’s a burning down inside of me.
Oh, oh.
Burning love
With a yearning that won’t let me be.
Down I go
And I just can’t take it all alone.

   I really should be holding you,
   Holding you,
   Loving you, loving you.

Chorus:
     Tragedy,
     When the feeling’s gone
     And you can’t go on.
     It’s tragedy
     When the morning cries
     And you don’t know why.
     It’s hard to bear
     With no one to love you,
     You’re going nowhere.
