Bee Gees - Lamplight Lyrics






Allons, viens encore, chérie.
J'attendrai patiemment sous la lampe dans la vieille avenue.

Then I may end.
She had things to buy.
I close my eyes.
Yet I don't know why.
I gave her money; said she knew someone.
And she said she won't be long.

Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning.
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine.

I sat alone with my thoughts and laughed.
Then saw your face in an old photograph.
I didn't think that I could live without you but what am I to do?

Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning.
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine

Come home again dear. I have waited year after year
Under the lamp in our old avenue.
If all in the world that's laughing, why should it make us cry?

Ah...

Bee Gees Lamplight Comments
  1. M.... R....

    Dieses Lied habe ich in meiner Jugend schon gern gehört. Bei Robin's Stimme kamen mir die Tränen.

  2. d.... D....

    São incomparáveis. Alguém ouvindo em 2020?

  3. J.... N....

    Robin a voice from heaven

  4. H.... B....

    This is simply stunning. Best song they ever recorded including the alternate takes.

  5. P.... R....

    Terug naar mijn jeugd, wat waren ze geweldig vooral Robin Gibb, blijft mooi, wat een geweldige tijd ! dank je Bee Gees

  6. M.... S....

    Love the way Robin sings year after year--his voice is so unique--love it!!

  7. b.... ....

    The semi-funny part of this little tale is that Fist of May tanked. Peaked at #58, at least in the US. Maybe it did better elsewhere. A good rule of thumb is too avoid songs that have Christmas trees in the lyrics because it is a cheap trick to elicit nostalgia and pull on the heartstrings without having to actually write moving lyrics.

  8. T.... G....

    Bee gees ouvir recordar amar e sonhar músicas sonhos eternos Bee gees

  9. S.... B....

    Super Lied

  23. E.... O....

    Nunca me cansaré de reconocer el gran talento de Robin Gib, q con tan sólo 19 años compuso un temazo como éste. Maravilloso desde el inicio, y en final es un sueño, con los arreglos musicales y con la armonía de voces y la música.
    Bravo, bravìsimo por él aunq ya no esté con nosotros. Una grandìsima pérdida, en verdad. Pero nos queda el legado de su música, y esa perdurará siempre, por los siglos de los siglos. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖

    E.... O....

    Muy de acuerdo contigo. Fabuloso en todas las facetas que el componía y una bellísima voz que no me canso de oír día a día dos o tres canciones de el antes de dormir

    E.... O....

    @Luz Martinez me encanta q hayas personas q como tú Luz, reconozcan y hagan saber públicamente la gran voz y el gran talento q tenía Robin Gibb.
    Un saludo y q tengas un gran día. 💐💐💜💐💐👌

  48. F.... L....

    Egyik kedvenc zenekarom volt,és a jövőben is az lesz a Bee Gees!

  49. n.... 2....

    Only Robin sang this song, when he left The Bee Gees.

    n.... 2....

    Of course!

  50. L.... B....

    Fabulous, should have been the A side. What a voice Robin, sadly missed.

    L.... B....

    Lee Brown
    I agree. Making it the B side seemed like a slap in the face. Couldn’t they have released it as the second single? No wonder he left the group after that.

  51. P.... A....

    auch ich vermisse die BeeGees. Dieses Lied ist eines der besten. Robin war mein Favorit. Werde diese Musik immer wieder gerne hören. War bei einem der letzten Auftritte life im Weser-Stadion in Bremen ganz allein und hab es genossen mit den anderen Fans dieses Ereignis zu feiern!

  52. A.... R....

    this is right up there with any Beatles record

  60. E.... S....

    Eternos!!!

  61. G.... T....

    This is by far my favourite Beegees song. The part where Robin sings "I didn't think that I could live without you, but what am I to do?" is the greatest vocal ever.

  62. A.... S....

    Ferienlager 1974 total verknallt super song

  67. E.... d....

    Still after so many years, that voice of Robin, unbelievable, so beautiful

  68. V.... A....

    Maravilha, meu Deus

  69. G.... M....

    Don't have a clue what this song is about? And it doesn't even matter...it's still absolutely beautiful. Now that speaks a lot for Robins amazing voice, and this song!!

    G.... M....

    @KL Well, either that, or Robin had a little drug-head /slash/ hoochie-mama on his hands, who bugged him until he finally forked over the money at 5am and she immediately made a trip to a bad area of town,... and evidently never returned!!😁😂🤣! (Calm Down everybody...just joking!😉)Thanks for info, Kitt!

    G.... M....

    @KL You agree with me that their golden years were 1967/1968? Robin was at the top of his game as singer songwriter. When he lost inspiration as lyricist the Bee Gees suffered a crisis. Barry had step it up but he went over the top. Too overbearing!

  70. i.... n....

    Homens de uma beleza incrível ea voz lindíssima sem comparação eternamente exclusivamente linda

  71. F.... D....

    Einfach super

  72. L.... T....

    Only thing wrong with this song, Robin's French is terrible!😉 💋😘

    L.... T....

    Doesn't matter .....it sounds Beauuutiful to me!!!😁

  73. M.... B....

    One of mu favourite Bee Gees song.Robins voice is fantastic.I love him❤️❤️❤️❤️

  74. M.... M....

    great thank for my best years I have 19 years.......tears.......

  75. J.... L....

    I LOVE ROBIN +MAURICE, VEYR, VERY MUCH!!! R.I.P . Y LOVE YOU FOREVER.

  76. J.... L....

    I love Robin!!! I miss you.....

    J.... L....

    Jana Linhartova - yes Robin had such a wonderful voice, that never anybody can forget. But now to us: you're living near Praga CZ, maybe beside Wenzel Platz...? I like Praga so much with his historia churches castilla y his many pretty women... I come from Nuernberg Bavaria del Norte but live not more there. 2011 I'd changed my love + live since 8 years only in Southamerica +Carib.

  81. S.... A....

    6 years today and my heart still aches ~ love and miss you forever sweet Robin❤️

  82. J.... L....

    I love Robin. I miss you!!!

  83. L.... S....

    This is the song that caused Robin to go solo-he wanted it to be their next single. Barry wanted First Of May and got it.

    L.... S....

    Well, it was probably one of the final straws that brought the decision down for Robin walking away. But, hey, there was a lot of troubled water under the bridge by that point.........

    L.... S....

    Robin was right; this is the better song. What would have been overwrought and almost silly in any other singer's voice was gold in his. That Barry muscled his way into being the lead full time was unfortunate.

  84. M.... A....

    Beautiful. 14-4-2018.

    M.... A....

    Yes you are beautiful also

    5 1/2 years youve been gone. Still every day you are thought of and appreciated by so many. You have impacted so many lives.

  95. V.... D....

    Robin: sua voz é linda!

  96. V.... D....

    Ah! Como esta música é linda.

  97. t.... ....

    This is the song that caused the break up, Stigwood released "First Of May" as a A side and put "Lamplight" on B side, Robin thought Stigwood was favoring Barry, I do think "Lamplight" is a much stronger song though !

    t.... ....

    I'm in the US and they didn't make much of a splash mostly on account of disco backlash. For me though, it's like getting new music from Robin which is awesome.

    t.... ....

    @beeharbour I'm from the U.S. also & they never sold less than 3 million LP's after Fever, they had a huge fan base.

    t.... ....

    @Spud Johnsonn What can I say, I did a lot of drugs back in the day and this is not the only gap in my recollection.

    t.... ....

    @beeharbour I hear you Brother, they had some damn good ones back then too ! Seconal, Tuinal, Quaalude's !

    t.... ....

    There was a narrative in place for them from the moment they started harmonizing, Barry was the leader and would never be challenged while the twins were his back up singers. No one could have predicted that Robin's adult voice would be so freaking good. Barry found himself looking at Robin's back when he sang lead. That was not in the script. I don't necessarily blame Barry for the turn things took when the band reformed because I don't know how the industry works and who decides who sings what. There were rumors that Bee Gee manager types paid radio stations to not play Robin's songs but I don't know what truth there is to that. I certainly do not think Barry would ever do such a thing to his brother even with the bad blood between him and Robin that never truly went away from the looks of things. Not that I know a blessed thing about these gentlemen beyond their amazing body of work. I've formed stupid opinions based on less evidence than we have here.

  98. J.... E....

    DEAR ROBIN YOU WAS THE GREATEST WITH YOU VOICETHANKS FOR ALL , WE SAY ALL THANK YOU OUR FRIEND WE NEVER FORGET
