While I Play Songtext

von Bee Gees

I cry tears of emotion
To spread across the USA.
Ain't no sunshine, cowboy, in your pockets.
I'll make my own way,
While I play.

Baby, you forgot you're living.
Someone covered up your eyes.
In my way at least I'm giving
What I love, am I wise?

There's gonna be some confusion.
And there's gonna be a day
You'll raise your eyes
And you'll look to the skies
And you'll pray,
While I play.

I am my father's son
Or that is what I heard.
Maybe I got it wrong.
I didn't mean a word.
You got my face
And I'll play your ace,
Pretend I haven't heard.

There's gonna be some confusion.
And there's gonna be a day,
You'll raise your eyes
And you'll look to the skies
And you'll pray,
While I play.

I am a minstrel, that is all I want to be.
I'll play inside your soul,
I'll show you to yourself,
I'll fill your head with wild emotions,
A symphony in wealth.

There's gonna be some confusion.
And there's gonna be a day,
You'll raise your eyes
And you'll look to the skies
And you'll pray,
While I play

I will take my leave, I gotta move on time.
I played inside your soul, I made you sing along.
I will return to find out if the melody was wrong.

There's gonna be some confusion.
And there's gonna be a day,
You'll raise your eyes
And you'll look to the skies
And you'll pray,
While I play.
