I'm leaving

[Chriswood8]

i'm going to Oz for a year and my girlfriend is very upset about it, i'm goign to make her a little photo album of us but i want to write a love song lyrics on the inside cover but i cant think of a song to write down, so can anyone give me some ideas - i'm looking for lyrics like 'She' by Elvis Costello or along those line a song about 'her'

Thanks!

[zzxxee]

well why not write the lyrics to she by elvis costello? shes the one by robbie williams?

[Bbbananas]

Im leaving...
on a jet plane... could be one of them?

That is a really nice idea though Chris.

[Bbbananas]

Seriously, 'I will be right here waiting for you' by Richard Marx would be nice.

[zzxxee]

thats a really nice choice salabananas or the script the man who cant be moved or truly madly deeply by savage garden

I was going to suggest " You and Me Song " by the Wannadies

But now I look at the lyrics they're mostly nonsense ! Great song though.

Elvis Costello did a version of 'She' - on the soundtrack of Notting Hill. Its a good version - I prefer it to Aznavour's.

Once a jolly sassanach, went into the outback
searching for Sheilas that he was to find
and they rumped and they bumped
till they were truly satisfied
then boiled up the billy can
to start off again.

What about Time in a bottle by Jim Croce?

[Bbbananas]

I am.

But I also like Madness' 'It must be love'. So how mad is mad?!!

No matter where I roam
I will come back to my english rose
For no bonds can ever tempt me from she
Ive sailed the seven seas,
Flown the whole blue sky.
But Ive returned with haste to where my
Love does lie.
No matter where I go I will come back to my english rose
For nothing can ever tempt me from she.
Ive searched the secret mists -
Ive climbed the highest peaks
Caught the wild wind home to hear her soft voice speak
To hear her soft voice speak
No matter where I roam
I will return to my english rose
For no bonds can ever keep me from she.

Ive been to ancient worlds
Ive scoured the whole universe
And caught the first train home
To be at her side.
No matter where I roam
I will return to my english rose
For no bonds can ever keep me from she

Anything by Rolf Harris should suffice.

[Bbbananas]

Oh wow - Paul Weller.
Yes - that's the best so far, I love that one.

[wonkon-wonk]

[Bbbananas]
