One of The Bee Gees' countless popular songs was in Staying Alive. Aside from providing upbeat themes from both Saturday Night Fever and Staying Alive, they both managed to gave some soulful songs as well and Someone Belonging To Someone is one of them.


SOMEONE BELONGING TO SOMEONE
sung by: The Bee Gees

I know how I feel

Lonely in the black of night

There can be no love for me now

Nobody listens when the words ain’t right

And you get into someone else

It’s hard for me to know

Who’s lovin’ who

And where do I stand

What did I do it all for

There’s no one I could love more

I did it for your heart alone

All that I try to be growin’ inside to me

I can be strong if you’re there

And there is someone belonging to someone

And I got no one belonging to me

I live in a world where the face of an angel

Is all that a fool can see

You got the power to find me whenever I’m lost

Where are you

Who are we

I believe in time

Can eat away a heart of stone

And baby if I leave you too late

It’s just a feather and the bird has flown

It’s colder when the fire dies

With all the trouble I’m in if I lose you too

Then what is my life

If I don’t wanna go through

Anything without you

Couldn’t be life at all

I could be lyin’ on

You are the only one

We didn’t make it by chance

And there is someone belonging to someone

And I got no one belonging to me

I’m caught in a world on the edge of tomorrow

It’s all that a fool can find

I don’t belong in the arms of a love that is lost

Nowhere to cry

There must be something we can say my love

Something except goodbye

And there is someone belonging to someone

And I got no one belonging to me……

WAITING FOR A GIRL LIKE YOU (FOOTLOOSE, 1984)

“Hey, hey! What's this I see? I thought this was a party.

Let's Dance!” - Ren

Another one of the memorable songs in the equally memorable dance film of the ‘80’s Footloose is the song Waiting For A Girl Like You by Foreigner.


WAITING FOR A GIRL LIKE YOU
sung by: Foreigner

So long, I've been looking too hard,

I've been waiting too long

Sometimes I don't know what I will find,

I only know it's a matter of time

When you love someone

When you love someone

It feels so right, so warm and true,

I need to know if you feel it too

Maybe I'm wrong, won't you tell me if

I'm coming on too strong

This heart of mine has been hurt before

This time I wanna be sure

I've been waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

I've been waiting for a girl like you

Your loving will survive

I've been waiting for someone new

To make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

You're so good

When we make love it's understood

It's more than a touch or a word can say

Only in dreams could it be this way

When you love someone

Yeah, really love someone

Now I know it's right

From the moment I wake up till deep in the night

There's nowhere on earth that

I'd rather be than holding you tenderly

I've been waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

I've been waiting for a girl like you

Your loving will survive

I've been waiting for someone new

To make me feel alive

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you

To come into my life

I've been waiting, waiting for you

Ooh, I've been waiting

I've been waiting

(I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting)

Won't you come into my life?

TOMORROW
sung by: Aileen Queen

The sun'll come out

Tomorrow

Bet your bottom dollar

That tomorrow

There'll be sun!

Just thinkin' about

Tomorrow

Clears away the cobwebs

And the sorrow

'Til there's none!

When I'm stuck a day
That's gray
And lonely
I just stick out my chin
And Grin, And Say, Oh!

The sun'll come out

Tomorrow

So ya gotta hang on

'Til tomorrow

Come what may

Tomorrow!

Tomorrow!

I love ya Tomorrow!

You're always

A day

A way!

When I'm stuck a day
That's gray
And lonely
I just stick out my chin
And Grin, And Say, Oh!

Tomorrow!
Tomorrow!
I love ya Tomorrow!
You're always
A day
A way!

TAKE MY BREATH AWAY (TOP GUN, 1986)

“You don't have time to think up there.

If you think, you're dead.” – Maverick

Berlin sung one of their best song Take My Breath Away that propelled both the song itself and the film to the top. The song won the best original song at the Oscars and the Golden Globe Awards.

TAKE MY BREATH AWAY
sung by: Berlin

Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game

On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame

Turning and returning to some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love

Never hesitating to become the fated ones

Turning and returning to some secret place to hide

Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say

Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you, in time you slipped away

When the mirror crashed I called you, and turned to hear you say

If only for today I am unafraid

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching every motion in this foolish lover's game

Haunted by the notion somewhere there's a love in flames

Turning and returning to some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say

Take my breath away

My love, take my breath away

I need to know someone

Whose warmer than the sunshine

Could be that you’re the one for me

Ohh, you touch me deeper darlin'

All my emotions started

Come to me now and you will see

And I’m never gonna give you up for someone else’s love

Never gonna let you go and lose the one I love

Ahh tonight, tonight

Some people never know the

True magic of the moonlight

You give me everything I need

Woman, you really know me

Anticipation’s growing

Come to me now so you will see

That I’m never gonna give you up for someone else’s love

Never gonna let you go and lose the one I love

Ahh tonight, tonight

Ohhh, ahhh, ohhh

Ohh Forever will, together strong

Woah, together here, forever here in love

Never gonna give you up for someone else’s love

Never gonna let you go and lose the one I love

Never gonna give you up for someone else’s love

Never gonna let you go

No one else’s love

Never, never, never

No one else’s love

Never, never, never

No one else’s love

Never gonna give you up for someone else’s love
Never gonna let you go and lose the one I love
