I’ve always liked this Bee Gees track:

“Emotion” is a song written by Barry and Robin Gibb. It was first recorded by Australian singer Samantha Sang, whose version reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1978. The Bee Gees recorded their own version of the song in 1994 as part of an album called Love Songs, which was never released, but it was eventually included on their 2001 collection titled Their Greatest Hits: The Record. In 2001, “Emotion” was covered by the American R&B girl group Destiny’s Child. Their version of the song was an international hit, reaching the top ten on the US Hot 100 chart and peaking in the top five on the UK Singles Chart. English singer Emma Bunton also covered the song on her 2019 album My Happy Place.
Emotion :

It’s over and done
But the heartache lives on inside, oh
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
I’ll 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 good night
Good night, good night, good night
Good night
I’m there at your side
I’m part of all the things you are, oh
And you got a part of someone else
You go to find your shinning star
And where are you now
Now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go
I’ll 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 good night
Good night, good night, good night
Good night
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 good night
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

Several versions of it by all accounts, originally written for Samantha Sang, but I preferred the Bee Gees version.
