[Arksided]

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

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.   

[Arksided]

I'm moving, I'm coming
Can you hear what I hear
It's calling you, my dear
Out of reach (Take me to my beach)
I can hear it calling you
I'm coming, not drowning
Swimming closer to you

All Saints

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago
Turned around backwards so the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse
Still, it's so much clearer
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge, the moon is low tonight

REM

[maggiebee]

Blue moon
You saw me standin' alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Blue moon
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me sayin' a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

FS

[Hazlinny]

Does that blue moon ever shine on you?
I wanna hold you close to me
Feel just like it used to be
And baby, if you feel like I do
You can come to me
Does that blue moon ever shine on you?

Toby Keith

Did you say it's all over, it was me not a whisper,
the marriage is over, was it me or my heart,
justify all affection, beyond recollection,
I was fine in virginia, guess it's true what I said,
wake up, get up, get out, break up
just say goodbye for today,
I'm wearing my blue hat for a blue day is all we need
please my love, release the things that I touch
please my girl, release the story of love,
swim with love, don't lose that magical part of you,
my sweet blue girl.....

Nick Heyward

It's been a blue, blue day

I feel like runnin' away

I feel like runnin' away from it all

My love has been untrue

She's found somebody new

It's been a blue, blue day for me

Don Gibson

It's hard to make believe everyday
Things are not always the way they should be
Words come easy if you-ou try
Hidin' in the shadow of your eyes

And I tell myself it's just a blue day
And it's hard to see it any other way
And I tell myself it's just a blue-ue day

Mi-Sex

[mushroom25]

Words don't come easy to me
How can I find a way to make you see I love you?
Words don't come easy
Words don't come easy to me
This is the only way for me to say I love you
Words don't come easy

Well, I'm just a music man, melodies are so far my best friend
But my words are coming out wrong, girl, I reveal my heart to you
And hope that you believe it's true 'cause

Words don't come easy to me.....

Fitoussi/Deanne/Sanders, performed by FR David

[Hazlinny]

Talk in everlasting words

And dedicate them all to me

And I will give you all my life

I'm here if you should call to me

You think that I don't even mean

A single word I say

It's only words and words are all I have

To take your heart away

Bee Gees

[mushroom25]

Hearts gone astray, deep in hurt when they go
I went away, just when you, you need me so
You won't regret, I come back beggin' you
Won't you forget, welcome love we once knew

Open up your eyes then you realise
Here I stand with my everlasting love
Need you by my side, girl to be my bride
You'll never be denied, everlasting love

From the very start, open up your heart
Feel that you're part of everlasting love

Need a love to last forever
Need a love to last forever

Cason/Gayden; originally recorded by Robert Knight, hit version by The Love Affair

[Hazlinny]

There's no formula for happiness, that's guaranteed to work
it all depends on how you treat your friends
and how much you've been hurt
But it's a start, when you open up your heart
and try not to hide, what you feel insi-i-ide
just open up your heart

Welcome back, my friends
To the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend!
Come inside! Come inside!

There behind a glass
Stands a real blade of grass
Be careful as you pass
Move along! Move along!

Come inside, the show's about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you'll get your money's worth
The greatest show in Heaven, Hell, or Earth

You've got to see the show, it's a dynamo
You've got to see the show, it's rock and roll, ohhhh

Emerson, Lake and Palmer

[maggiebee]

Empty spaces, what are we living for?
Abandoned places, I guess we know the score
On and on
Does anybody know what we are looking for?
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line
Does anybody want to take it anymore?

The show must go on
The show must go on
Yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

Queen

[mushroom25]

Baby, although I chose this lonely life
It seems it's strangling me now
All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic cars
They're all laughing at me now

Oh, I've been used (ooh-ooh)
I've been a fool, oh, what a fool
I broke all the rules, oh yeah
But I must let the show go on

Baby, there's an enormous crowd of people
They're all after my blood
I wish maybe they'd tear down the walls of this theater
Let me out, let me out

Oh, I'm so blind, oh, I'm blind
I wasted time, wasted, wasted, wasted time
Walking on a wire, oh, high wire
But I must let the show go on.....

Leo Sayer

[maggiebee]

Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free
Like a worm on a hook
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee

If I, if I have been unkind
I hope that you can just let it go by
If I, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you

Leonard Cohen

[Arksided]

What you drinking?
Rum or whiskey?
Now won't you have a
Double with me?

I'm sorry I'm a little late
I got your message by the way
I'm calling in sick today
So let's go out for old time's sake

I'll never forget you
They said we'd never make it
My sweet joy
Always remember me

Noisettes

He sort of smiled, then kissed me goodbye
The tears were beginning to show
As he drove away on that rainy night
I begged him to go slow, whether he heard
I'll never know (know, know, know, know, know, know, know)
Look out, look out, look out

I felt so helpless, what could I do?
Remembering all the things we'd been through
In school, they all stop and stare
I can't hide the tears, but I don't care
I'll never forget him, the leader of the pack....

Morton/Barry/Greenwich, performed by the Shangri-Las

[Arksided]

Well, he walked up to me and he asked me if I wanted to dance
He looked kind of nice, and so I said I might take a chance
When he danced, he held me tight
And when he walked me home that night
All the stars were shining bright and then he kissed me

Each time I saw him, I couldn't wait to see him again
I wanted to let him know that he was more than a friend
I didn't know just what to do
So I whispered, "I love you"
He said that he loved me too, and then he kissed me

The Crystals.

[mushroom25]

They were dating in the park
They were smooching in the dark
Of a doorway for two
She whispered "I love you
Ooh, you know I never felt this way before
Ooh, you know the elevator in my heart
Has gone awol, awol, awol, awol"
And then I kissed her
And when I kissed her
It's a wonderful world
When you're rolling in kisses

Now, the paint is peeling
(Hum drum days and hum drum ways)
Now, and when the chips are down
(Hum drum days and hum drum ways)
Now, you kinda lose all feeling
(Hum drum days and hum drum ways)
Now, your head goes round and round
(Hum drum days and hum drum ways)
Round and round and round and round and round
I'm throwing myself off this train....

Take the last train to Clarksville
And I'll meet you at the station
You can be here by 4:30
'Cause I've made your reservation

'Cause I'm leavin' in the morning
And I must see you again
We'll have one more night together
'Til the morning brings my train
