The Bee Gees were a musical group founded in 1958. The group's line-up consisted of brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio were successful for most of their decades of recording music, but they had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as a pop act in the late 1960s/early 1970s, and as prominent performers of the disco music era in the late 1970s.
The group sang three-part tight harmonies that were instantly recognisable; Robin's clear vibrato lead was a hallmark of their earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became their signature sound during the late 1970s and 1980s. The brothers wrote all of their own hits, as well as writing and producing several major hits for other artists.
Born in the Isle of Man to English parents, the Gibb brothers lived their first few years in Chorlton, Manchester, England, then moved in the late 1950s to Redcliffe, Queensland, Australia, where they began their musical careers. After achieving their first chart success in Australia with "Spicks and Specks" (their 12th single), they returned to the United Kingdom in January 1967 where producer Robert Stigwood began promoting them to a worldwide audience.

A love song is a song about falling in love and the feelings it brings, and/or about ones heartbreaking and how it feels. Anthologies of love songs often contain a mixture of both of these types of song. A bawdy song is both humorous and saucy, emphasizing the physical pleasure of love rather than the emotional joy. Notable performers of love songs include Paul McCartney, Elvis Presley, Elton John, Bryan Adams, Beyoncé, Celine Dion, Richard Marx, Mariah Carey, Phil Collins, George Michael, Taylor Swift, Whitney Houston, Billy Joel and Adele.[citation needed]
It's over and done
but the heartache lives on inside
and who is the one you're clinging to instead of me
tonight?
And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow ,wherever you go
and cry me a river
that leads to your ocean
You'll never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
it's just emotion
that's taking me over
tied up in sorrow
lost in my soul
and if you don't come back
come home to me darling
you know that there'll be nobody left in this world to hold me tight,
nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight,
Goodnight, goodnight
I'm there at your side,
I'm part of all the things you are
and you've got a part of someone else
you've gone to find your shining star
And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow ,wherever you go
and cry me a river
that leads to your ocean
You'll never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
it's just emotion
that's taking me over
tied up in sorrow
lost in my soul
and if you don't come back
come home to me darling
know that there'll be nobody left in this world to hold me tight,
nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight,
Goodnight, goodnight
And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow , wherever you go
and cry me a river
that leads to your ocean
You'll never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
it's just emotion
that's taking me over
tied up in sorrow
lost in my soul
and if you don't come back
come home to me darling
know that there'll be nobody left in this world to hold me tight,
nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight,
Goodnight, goodnight
