See How Far This Goes...

[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.    

[Hazlinny]

I’m happy with myself
I’m happy with myself
And I don’t have what it takes to please you

I’ve been trying to write you a letter
I’ve been trying for two or three years
Maybe I could just say it better
Practice some in front of a mirror here oh

I’ve been trying to build you a heaven
Crowns of thorns in Mason Jars
Angels that dance on pins and needles
Maybe I’ve tried a little too hard oh

Over the Rhine

[Arksided]

I tore my letter up
I couldn't even start
To tell you what's really here in my heart
There's only so much that words can say
So I sent you a piece of this beautiful day

When I return... by Shaky really 😉

[Hazlinny]

Thank you for the days
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me
I'm thinking of the days
I won't forget a single day, believe me
I bless the light
I bless the light that lights on you, believe me
Now you're gone
You're with me every single day, believe me

Luke Kelly

[Arksided]

Everytime you need me, you know I will be there
You know I really care
Say you will, say you dare
Everytime you need me, you know I will be there
A love beyond compare
Say you will, say you care

Write my name into the sky
And keep the memories in your heart
Let the hours pass us by
I guess that this is a way to start
You are full of surprises
You are a fire burning bright
You are what mesmerizes me

Fragma

[Hazlinny]

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
You right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

An amazing feeling coming through...
I was born to love you
With every single beat of my heart
Yes, I was born to take care of you
Every single day of my life

Freddie... later reworked by Queen.

[Hazlinny]

Everyday, it's a gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a roller coaster
Love like yours will surely come my way, a-hey, a-hey-hey
Love like yours will surely come my way

Love on the rocks, ain't no surprise
Just pour me a drink, and I'll tell you some lies
Got nothing to lose, so you just sing the blues
All the time

Gave you my heart, gave you my soul
You left me alone here with nothing to hold
Yesterday's gone, now all I want is a smile

I can't help it but I wish this would stop

[Arksided]

Done.

[Arksided]

Stop right now thank you very much
I need somebody with a human touch
Hey you always on the run
Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun
Do do do do
Do do do do
Do do do always be together

For united we stand, divided we fall
And if our backs should ever be against the wall
We'll be together, together, you and I

Brotherhood of Man

[Canary42]

Stand up, stand up for Jesus, 
The strife will not be long; 
This day the noise of battle, 
The next the victor's song.

Various

Get up, stand up
Stand up for your right
Get up, stand up
Don't give up the fight

Hey Mon,,,

[mushroom25]

If you are confused, check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around

So, stand in the place where you live
Now face north
Think about direction, wonder why you haven't before
Now stand in the place where you work
Now face west, think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven't before

Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
If wishes were trees the trees would be falling
Listen to reason
Season is calling

Stand in the place where you live......

What do you do
When you've done all you can
And it seems like it's never enough?
And what do you say
When your friends turn away
And you're all alone?
Tell me, what do you give
When you've given your all
And it seems like
You can't make it through?

Well you just stand
When there's nothing left to do
You just stand
Watch the lord see you through
Yes after you done all you can
You just stand

Are you ready for the time of your life?
It's time to stand up and fight
It's alright it's alright
Hand in hand we take a caravan to the motherland
One by one we gonna stand up with pride
One that can't be denied
Stand up, stand up
From the highest mountain, valley low
We'll all join together with hearts of gold
Now the children of the world can see
There's a better place for us to be
The place in which we were born
So neglected and torn apart

Every woman every man
Join the caravan of love
(Stand up) stand up
Stand up
Everybody take a stand
Join the caravan of love
(Stand up) stand up
Stand up......

[maggiebee]

Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home if you don't cut that hair
Your mom busted in and said, what's that noise?
Aw, mom you're just jealous it's the Beastie Boys

You gotta fight for your right to party
You gotta fight for your right to party

Party
Party

Beastie Boys

[Hazlinny]

Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
Judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine?

It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
