See How Far This Goes...

[Arksided]

Hi everyone the last one no longer appears in recent posts...

Many know how to play, they isn't rules as such just post a song lyric that follows on from the previous one.
Feel free to have a natter along the way, artist is optional although helpful if a little obscure all I ask is you play nice Xx

The last song lyric posted was:

You can paint a picture 🖼
More than they can give you
History is written by the hands
That hold the future
Paint it bright
Paint it loud
Paint it now

Whitey

Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild

There's nothing left
All gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test
A game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile

[Hazlinny]

I know that I'm afraid of love
The toll seems very steep
The goal's so uncontrollable
Impossible to keep
Despite the songs of lucky ones
Those very special few
Can't right the wrongs that often come
No matter what we do
And, so I wonder (Oh, so I wonder)
Will I win, or will I lose?
Tell me, yeah, yeah (Oh, so I wonder)
Will I win, or will I lose?

E W & F

No matter what you are
I will always be with you
Doesn't matter what you do, girl
Ooh, girl, want you

No matter where you go
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you found, girl?
Ooh, girl, want you

Knock down the old grey wall
Be a part of it all
Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do

If you would give me all
As I would give it to you
Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be

No matter where you go
There will always be a place
Can't you see it in my face, girl?
Ooh, girl, want you..

Ham, performed by Badfinger

[Hazlinny]

I will stand by you
Even when we fall
I will be the rock that holds you up
And lifts you high so you stand tall
I won't let you go
No one can take your place
Oh, a couple fights and lonely nights
Don't make it right to let it go to waste

And I won't let you fall
I won't let you go
No matter where you are
No matter where you are, I'll be there
No matter where you are
No matter where you are, I'll be there

Us the Duo

[mushroom25]

Underneath the moon
Underneath the stars
Here's a little heart
For you

Up above the world
Up above it all
Here's a hand to hold on to

But if i should break
If i should fall away
What am i to do

I need someone to take
A little of the weight
Or I'll fall through

You're just the one that I've been waiting for
I'll give you all that I have to give and more
But don't let me fall

Kripac/Salter, performed by Lenka

[Hazlinny]

And the coffee's out
At the Beachwood Cafe
And it kills me 'cause I know we've run out of things we can say

What am I now? What am I now?
What if I'm someone I don't want around?
I'm falling again, I'm falling again, I'm falling
What if I'm down? What if I'm out?
What if I'm someone you won't talk about?
I'm falling again, I'm falling again, I'm falling

And I get the feeling that you'll never need me again

Harry Styles

[maggiebee]

I'm falling, I'm falling
Falling in love with you

Baby, Come closer closer to me, And listen listen so carefully
Remember all the nights that I told you that I loved you
It wasn't true, I used you, And you were just someone new

To thrill this lonely heart of mine
I was lying all the time
Pretending to be falling in love with you
But it's different now, I've kissed you now
So forgive me forgive me somehow

Hold me tight for tonight, Then tell me truth
If you still love me, Say that you love me
Don't leave me now

Now that I'm falling for you
I'm falling, I'm falling
Falling in love, Falling in love with you

Roy Orbison

[Arksided]

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you?

Elvis

[Ken4155]

Oh mother, tell your children

Not to do what i have done

Spend your lives in sin and misery

In the House of the Rising Sun

Animals

[maggiebee]

I met you once, I loved you twice
That's the way this tale begins
I played my hand, I rolled the dice
Now I'm paying for my sins
I got some bad addiction baby its you yeah yeah that's right
And I feel you taking over me
Could luck be a lady in here tonight

My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you I'd lose it all
My odds are stacked
I've never had the winning hand
But for you I'd lose it all

The Overtones

[Hazlinny]

You can gamble your house, gamble your car
Gamble your hopes, just as far
As the stars up above
Why don't you gamble with love

Oh, don't gamble with love
It's only for fools
So play by the rules
Don't gamble with love

Paul Anka

[mushroom25]

If you like to gamble
I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some
It's all the same to me

The pleasure is to play
It makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed
The only card I need is

The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades

Playing for the high one
Dancing with the devil
Going with the flow
It's all a game to me

Seven or eleven
Snake eyes watching you
Double up or quit
Double stake or split

The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades

You know I'm born to lose
And gambling's for fools
But that's the way I like it, baby
I don't wanna live forever.....

Motorhead

[Hazlinny]

There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us?

Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?
Ooh

There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment
Set aside for us

Queen

[mushroom25]

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune
The music's played by the, the mad man

Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever, and ever
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever young

Alphaville

[Hazlinny]

So stay young
I know that I'm talking too much
And I'll get nowhere tryna do it at once
But oh my God, I wanna be someone
So stay young
With me, 'cause I hope that it's you
That I'll break my back tryna run home to
Because oh my God, I want you to be the one
So stay young

Hazlinny, was that deliberately written to disagree with West Side Story?

There's a place for us,
A time a place for us.
Hold my hand and we're halfway there.
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow,
Some day,
Somewhere.

[Arksided]

I can feel the music
moving through me everywhere
Ain't no destination baby
We don't even care
There's a place to be
If you need the right education
Let it take you there

S Club

[Moorea7]

 

There's a place for us

Somewhere a place for us

Peace and quiet and open air

Wait for us, somewhere 🌴

Barbra Streisand

[1ozzy]

Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waitin' for me

Bobby Darin

[Arksided]

Yeah I'm an all pervading guy
Beyond the bandaloop I'll take you (yes I will)
I'll teach you how to live and never die
Never die
Never die - imagine that
