Hi everyone the last one will no longer appear in recent posts... today.

Many know how to play and new players are always welcome, 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 first poster has free choice for an opening song lyric of this 'new' thread.    

[Hazlinny]

In my dreams your dreams
Are the only things
That really matter to me
When you smile I smile
What makes you happy makes me happy too
In my dreams your dreams come true
In my dreams your dreams come true

Judy Teen, the queen of the scene, she's rag doll amore
Verbal slang, American twang, you dare not ignore
In from New York, prompted her to talk of superballs
Judy Teen grew sick of the scene, just bragging to fools

She took us on a carousel
She made us smile and oh, how we laughed
Together riding on a crest it was swell
We stole her face and oh, how we laughed
She made us happy (happy, happy, happy......)

Cockney Rebel

[Hazlinny]

Happiness, happiness
The greatest gift that I possess
I thank the Lord that I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness

To me this world is a wonderful place
I'm the luckiest human in the human race
I've got no silver, and I've got no gold
But I've got happiness in my soul

Ken Dodd

The vulture sits on top of the big-top circus arena

He's seen the show before, he knows someone's gonna fall

Right near the point where the beautiful, dancing, tightrope ballerina

Forgets the safety net isn't there at all

Down he swoops, claws drawn to take her

Razor-sharp, so savage is she mauled

Oh my God!, is there no-one who can save her?

In steps the fox to thunderous applause

Fools gold, fools gold

Lizzy

[mushroom25]

She walked through the corn
Leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun
She took all the love
That a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox
(Like the fox) Like the fox
On the run

Everybody knows the reason for the fall
When Woman tempted Man down in paradise's hall
This woman tempted me, oh yes, and took me for a ride
But like the weary fox, I need a place to hide......

Hazzard, performed by Manfred Mann

[maggiebee]

Your name is a triangle
Your heart is a square
I love to see you
Way over there
Once I was happy
You found it intriguing
Then you got to me
And left me waiting

You make me feel like a fool waiting for you
You make me feel like a fool waiting for you

Frankie Cosmos

[mushroom25]

I remember when
I was five and you were ten, boy
You knew that I was shy
So you teased and made me cry
But I loved you

Then one day you came
You told me you were leaving
You gave your folks the blame
And made me cry again
When you said

Little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
Ooh, little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
And I'm still waiting.....

Richards, performed by Diana Ross

Wednesday morning at five o'clock

As the day begins

Silently closing her bedroom door

Leaving the note that she hoped would say more

 

She goes downstairs to the kitchen

Clutching her handkerchief

Quietly turning the backdoor key

Stepping outside, she is free

 

She(we gave her most of our lives)

Is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives)

Home (we gave her everything money could buy)

She's leaving home, after living alone, for so many years (bye bye)

Beatles

[Arksided]

Leaving home ain't easy
Oh, I never thought it would be easy
Leaving on your own
Oh, there's a million things
A-calling me back
Leaving home ain't easy
On the one you're leaving home

👑

[Patsy33]

Dee do de de, dee do de de

Sometimes I feel I'm gonna break down and cry (so lonely)

Nowhere to go, nothing to do with my time

I get lonely, so lonely, living on my own

Sometimes I feel I'm always walking too fast (so lonely)

And everything is coming down on me, down on me, I go crazy

Oh so crazy - living on my own

Dee do de de, dee do de de

I don't have no time for no monkeybusiness

Dee do de de, dee do de de

I get so lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, yeah

Got to be some good times ahead

Sometimes I feel nobody gives me no warning

Find my head is always up in the clouds in a dreamworld

It's not easy - living on my own, my own, my own

Freddie Mercury

[Arksided]

Only the lonely
Know the way I feel tonight
Only the lonely
Know this feeling ain't right

There goes my baby
There goes my heart
They're gone forever
So far apart

[Patsy33]

Time is never time at all

You can never ever leave

Without leaving a piece of youth

And our lives are forever changed

We will never be the same

The more you change, the less you feel

Believe

Believe in me

Believe, believe

That life can change

That you're not stuck in vain

We're not the same, we're different

Tonight

Tonight

Tonight, so bright

Tonight

Tonight

Smashing Pumpkins

[Arksided]

Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody

… We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me we've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all

Freddie

[maggiebee]

Don't put your head on my shoulder
Sink me in a river of tears
This could be the best place yet
But you must overcome your fears

Ooh in time it could have been so much more
The time is precious I know
In time it could have been so much more
The time has nothing to show

Culture Club

[Hazlinny]

Yes, star-crossed in pleasure, the stream flows on by
Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly, yes

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

TRS

[maggiebee]

Gonna open my heart, out of the scars and listen up
Gonna do what I'm told, though I'm told and listen up
Take a shot in the rain, one for the pain and listen up
I travelled the way

Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me

Kings of Leon

[Arksided]

Oceans apart, day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
Then how can we say forever?

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

Richard Marx

[Hazlinny]

You can make an hour feel like a minute
You can make the whole world stop spinning
And I don't wanna miss it
All we got is right here
All we got is right now

Ryan Griffin

[Hazlinny]

You see this here flat top guitar
Has had my back in a million bars
Singing every country song
So I hold on
