I agree.

So this line mind ring a bell too....

"today I saw somebody that looked just like you"

??

That one should be Rod Stewart--You Are Everything.

Well, we're big rock singers
We got golden fingers
And we're loved everywhere we go..... (that sounds like us)
We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
At ten-thousand dollars a show..... (right)
We take all kinds of pills that give us all kind of thrills
But the thrill we've never known
Is the thrill that'll gitcha when you get your picture...

Oh darling I'm so lonely without you
Can't sleep at night always think about you
But if I had the chance to start all over
I would be wishing today on a four leaf clover
And leaving would be the last thing on my mind

Turn Back The Hands of Time--Tyrone Davis


another....

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

 

[tendril]

a few more words..

...from my favourite sing...

You are everything

Today I saw somebody
Who looked just like you
He walked like you do
I thought it was you
As he turned the corner
I called out your name
I felt so ashamed 'cause it wasn't you
Wasn't you

Hey j.m.b. -how's it going? You'll Never walk alone?

The lyrics? From Big Yellow Taxi, originally by Joni Mitchell, then Aimee Stewart covered it, and finally, most recently, Counting Crowes.

Am I right or am I right?

Woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand
Whose wine, what wine, where the hell did I dine?
Must have been a dream I don’t believe where I’ve been
Come on - you wanna do it again?

Peter Frampton - Do you feel like we do


Try this:


Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine,
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day.
You're losin' all your highs and lows,
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away?

The Eagles "Desperado"

"I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis,
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride.
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind. "

another...(this is the last part of the song)

On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool cool rain.
The nights are hot and black as ink
I can't sleep and I lay and I think
Oh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain.

A.A. thats the WHO-- something from quadrophenia right??

If i could stick a knife in my heart
suicide right on the stage
would that satisfy you
would it slip on by you
would ya thunk the boy is strange....

 

[Butch]

Try this

You've only done a bunch of rock songs. I intend to change that.

"**********, people are searching for the kind of love that we once had
Some folks are searching their whole lives and never find the love I found in you."

The *'s are the title of the song if you were wondering.

It's Only Rock N Roll--The Rolling Stones.

another...I love this one--

I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest
in a big field of tall grass
I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face

And I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind, the fact that me,
an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome
should be the star of a Hollywood movie

How about this one? (A Canuck)

The ship was the pride of the American side
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?

The Edmund Fitzgerald... Gordon Lightfoot



Next:

One child grows up to be
Somebody that just loves to learn
And another child grows up to be
Somebody you'd just love to burn
Mom loves the both of them
You see it's in the blood
Both kids are good to Mom
"Blood's thicker than mud"

Ted Nugent? Something like Cat Fever?
Let me know if I'm wrong!

How about this one . . .

I was lying in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes.
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst thru the sky.
There was a band playing in my head
And I felt like getting high.
I was thinking about what a
Friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie.

Don't turn your back on me, baby.

Don't mess around with your tricks;
Don't turn your back on me, baby,
'cause you might just wake up my magic sticks.
