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]

I will follow you way down wherever you may go
I'll follow you way down to your deepest low
I'll always be around wherever life takes you
You know I'll follow you

Imagine Dragons

[Arksided]

Manipulator
And here comes trouble
Jealousy was not his history
Come on now how low can you go
Not much lower but lower than low
Checkout

Manipulator - ch-ch-checkout
Manipulator - lower than low

The Cross

[Hazlinny]

When the suns out we pull the blinds up
To hide away, the shade is guaranteed to save this bet
Keep the sun shine, we'll keep the good times
Take my hand, the sun has promised he will never say
You twist my future wrapped around your little finger
You paint my future, you create the perfect picture
Now the suns out, I guess you've died out
And you know you'll take me with you

Don Broco

[mushroom25]

You consider me the young apprentice
Caught between the Scylla and Charybdis
Hypnotized by you if I should linger
Staring at the ring around your finger
I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they would not teach me of in college
I can see the destiny you sold
Turn into a shining band of gold

I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your finger

Mephistopheles is not your name
I know what you're up to just the same
I will listen hard to your tuition
You will see it come to its fruition

I'll be wrapped around your finger
I'll be wrapped around your finger
 

The Police

[Arksided]

I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand?
Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?

But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

The Cranberries

Lyrics

Lingering on
They're lingering on
Each of the joys that came with the love we knew

Sparkling champagne
A walks in the rain
It's hard to forget these moments I shared with you

Tom Jones        ............ gtg

[Arksided]

Magic moments, memories we've been sharin'
Magic moments, when two hearts are carin'
Time can't erase the memory of
These magic moments filled with love

Perry Como

[mushroom25]

Oh-ho-ho, it's magic, you know
Never believe it's not so
It's magic, you know
Never believe it's not so

Never been awake, never seen a day break
Leaning on my pillow in the morning
Lazy day in bed, music in my head
Crazy music playing in the morning light

Oh-ho-ho, it's magic, you know
Never believe it's not so
It's magic, you know
Never believe it's not so

I love my sunny day, dream of far away
Dreaming on my pillow in the morning
Never been awake, never seen a day break
Leaning on my pillow in the morning light

Oh-ho-ho, it's magic, you know
Never believe it's not so....

Kelly, performed by Pilot

[Arksided]

Though I've tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start

Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on

It's not important for you to know my name
Nor I to know yours
If we communicate for two minutes only
It will be enough
For knowing that someone in this world
Feels as desperate as me
And what you give is what you get

It doesn't matter if we never meet again
What we have said will always remain
If we get through for two minutes only
It will be a start
For knowing that someone in this life
Loves with a passion called hate
And what you give is what you get....

The Jam

[Arksided]

The darkest hour
That I ever lived
And the longest fall
That I ever fell

And the sun went in
And the night was hell
When you left me
When you left me
'you had to be there'

The sweetest thoughts
That I entertain
Are of happy days
That might come again

I don't know your face
I don't know your name
'til we meet again.....
Hope we meet again
'you have to be there'

It's the darkest hour

Of the darkest night

It's a million miles

From the morning light

Can't get no sleep

Don't know what to do

I got those midnight blues

Gary Moore

[mushroom25]

It was a rainy night
The night the king went down
Everybody was crying
It seemed like sadness had surrounded the town

Me, I went to the liquor store
And I bought a bottle of wine and a bottle of gin
I played his records all night
Drinking with a close, close friend

Now some people say that that ain't right (that ain't right)
And some people say nothing at all (I say nothin')
But even in the darkest of night
You can always hear the king's call
You can always hear the king's call

Well, they put him away in Memphis
Six feet beneath the clay
Everybody was crying
Everybody said it was a plain grey day

Me, I went to the liquor store
And I bought another bottle of wine and another bottle of gin
I played his records all night
And I got drunk all over again

Now some people say that that ain't right (that ain't right)
And some people say nothing at all (I say nothing)
But even in the darkest of night
You could always hear the king's call....

Phil Lynott

[Arksided]

Hot air hangs like a dead man
From a white oak tree
People sitting on porches
Thinking how things used to be
Dark night
It's a dark night
Dark night
It's a dark night

[maggiebee]

Hush, a wild violet, hush, a band of gold
Hush, you're in a story I heard somebody told
Tear the promise from my heart, tear my heart today
You have found another, oh baby, I must go away

So hang down your head for sorrow, hang down your head for me
Hang down your head tomorrow, hang down your head Marie

Tom Waits

[Arksided]

Join our army join our band
Join our army and be a real man
Abandon hope who enter here
Land of hopelessness and fear
A band of gypsies a band of gold
Won't save your hide won't save your soul
Caught like a fly on the face of the Eiger
There's a smile on the face of the tiger
Abandon hope
(Is this your answer?)
Abandon fire
Abandon ship
(You know the answer)
Abandon fire

A vacation in a foreign land, Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

Now you remember what the draft man said, nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood, nobody knows that you've left for good
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

Smiling faces on the way to Nam, but once you get there no-one gives a damn
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

Hand grenades flying over your head

Missiles flying over your head, if you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

Shots ring out in the dead of night, the sergeant calls 'Stand up and fight!'
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

You've got your orders better shoot on sight, your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now

Folk, recorded by Bolland, covered by The Quo

[Hazlinny]

It's the wild wild west
I'm doing my best
I'm at the borderline of my faith
I'm at the hinterland of my devotion
I'm in the front line of this battle of mine
But I'm still alive
I'm a soldier of love
Every day and night
I'm a soldier of love
All the days of my life

Sade

[mushroom25]

So I'd like to know where, you got the notion
Said I'd like to know where, you got the notion
(To rock the boat), don't rock the boat baby

(rock the boat), don't tip the boat over
(Rock the boat), don't rock the boat baby
(Rock the boat)

Ever since our voyage of love began
Your touch has thrilled me like the rush of the wind
And your arms have held me safe from a rolling sea
There's always been a quiet place to harbor you and me

Our love is like a ship on the ocean
We've been sailing with a cargo full of love and devotion
So I'd like to know where, you got the notion
Said I'd like to know where, you got the notion

(rock the boat), don't rock the boat baby
(Rock the boat), don't tip the boat over
(Rock the boat), don't rock the boat baby
(Rock the boat)

Up to now we sailed through every storm
And I've always had your tender lips to keep me warm
Oh, I need to have the strength that flows from you
Don't let me drift away my dear, when love can see me through
(Our love is like a ship on the ocean)

We've been sailing with a cargo full of love and devotion
So I'd like to know where, you got the notion
Said I'd like to know where, you got the notion....

Holmes, performed by the Hues Corporation
