Wikipedia:
I Just Want to Be Your Everything, written by his brother Barry, was the first single from Andy Gibb’s debut album Flowing Rivers. It was released in Australia on Interfusion and internationally on RSO Records (Robert Stigwood’s label). His previous single, Words and Music, written by Andy, was only released in Australia. A second single was released from Flowing Rivers, a song that Barry and Andy wrote together called (Love Is) Thicker Than Water.
When Andy was recording songs for Flowing Rivers, The Eagles were at the same studio (Criteria in Miami) working on their Hotel California album. Joe Walsh played guitar on the two Andy Gibb singles and Barry Gibb provided backing vocals on both.
The first Andy Gibb album was finally issued almost a year after it was recorded, carefully spaced between Bee Gees releases.

For so long
You and me been finding each other for so long
And the feeling that I feel for you is more than strong, girl
Take it from me
If you give a little more than you’re asking for
Your love will turn the key
