[Arksided]

Hi everyone the last one no longer appear in recent posts... today. Thank you Canary for taking the helm over the past Month 👍

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.

There's a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars

Roxy Music

[Hazlinny]

The blood moon shines across the vale
Bells ring out through churches and jails
I tally my wounds and count the scars
Here in the house of a thousand guitars…

Bruce S.

[1ozzy]

I look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps

[Hazlinny]

Don't cry for me Argentina

[Arksided]

I cry for you, I cry for you
Love me, Tender
Love me, True
Love can always
See you through
I hope you're fine
I hope all's well
Given time
Hope springs eternal
Who finds conclusions
With love hope and confusion

Roger Taylor, with a nod to Elvis 

[mushroom25]

Everywhere the sun is shining.
All around the world it's shining.
But cold winds blow across your mind.
Confusion--it's such a terrible shame.
Confusion--you don't know what you're sayin'.
You've lost your love and you just can't carry on.
You feel there's no-one there for you to lean on.

Every night you're out there darlin'.
You're always out there runnin'.
And I see that lost look in your eyes.
Confusion, I don't know what I should do.
Confusion, I leave it all up to you.
You've lost your love and you just can't carry on.
You feel there's no-one there for you to lean on......

I had a dream when I was young
A dream of sweet illusion
A glimpse of hope and unity
And visions of one sweet union
But a cold wind blows
And a dark rain falls
And in my heart, it shows
Look what they've done to my dream

All along the watchtower

Princes kept the view

While all the women came and went

Barefoot servants too

Outside in the distance

A wildcat did growl

Two riders were approaching

The wind began to howl

Dylan

[Arksided]

Oh, thunder only happens when it's rainin'
Players only love you when they're playin'
Say women, they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know
You'll know

Fleetwood Mac, Noteable cover by The Corrs.

[Hazlinny]

I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
Comin' down on a sunny day

CCR

[mushroom25]

She walked like a dream from another world.

I'd never seen such a lovely girl.

She smiled as we stood on the sand

but, just as I reached for her hand.........

Down came the rain!

It's happened again, ohhh!

the thunder and lightning,

Down came the rain.

 

We walked by the sea for a long, long time.

I knew, somehow, she was nearly mine.

The look in her eyes told me this

but, just as we stopped for a kiss.......

Down came the rain!

Got on board a westbound 747
Didn't think before deciding what to do
Oh, that talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies
Rang true, sure rang true

Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya?
It pours, man, it pours

Albert Hammond

[mushroom25]

We got a 747 coming down in the night
There's no power, there's no runway lights
Radio operator try to get a message through
Tell the flight deck New York has no lights
There's no power, what do we do
A 747 coming down in the night
Try to get a message through
We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights
Stangers in the night
Going nowhere
We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights
Stangers in the night
Going nowhere.....

Saxon

[Ken4155]

747 flies us high

Much higher than we're meant to be

You're six miles high but feeling down

You wish you could be on the ground

Nazareth

[Hazlinny]

Strangers in the night
Two lonely people, we were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello, little did we know
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away and

Ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first sight, in love forever

FS
It turned out so right for strangers in the night

Come and look out through the window
That big old moon is shining down
Tell me now, don't it remind you
Of a blanket on the ground

Remember back when love first found us
We'd go slipping out of town
And we'd love beneath the moonlight
On a blanket on the ground

JS

[mushroom25]

Look through any window, yeah
What do you see
Smilin' faces all around
Rushin' through the busy town

Movin' on their way
Walkin' down the highways and the by ways
(Where do they go)
Movin' on their way
People with their shy ways and their sly ways

Oh, you can see the little children
All around
Oh, you can see the little ladies
In their gowns when you....

Gouldman/Silverman, performed by The Hollies

[maggiebee]

I've been through a year of madness
Replaced my hope with sadness
Found waking up the hardest
And every day, it felt the longest
All blessings were unwanted
Constantly haunted

Then you opened up, opened up my windows
Yeah, you opened up, opened up my windows
Like fire in the sky, you know what it's like
Was so glad to feel the sunlight in my eyes

Take That

[Hazlinny]

Hey you, you are the sun in my eyes
And I wanna come to you like the empty sky
So you can shine in me like the endless dawn
And I can hold you, hold you through the storm
