Good one - "The Story In Your Eyes" / Moody Blues

Try this:

Look like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same

dock of the bay
otis redding


my offering:
It feels so right
Being with you here tonight
Please,** *** *** ***
Just hold me close
Don't ever let me go

Raspberries--Go All The Way...good tune!


Another (I miss hearing this person sing--such power in the voice!)

Feeling better, now that we're through
Feeling better, cause I'm over you
I've learned my lesson, it left a scar
Now I see how you really are...

(Next lyric is the title)

Is it Sly Stone? Everyday People? Not sure on this one . . .

here's a lyric anyway: (one line is all you'll need):

Well, The Rain Exploded With A Mighty Crash As We Fell Into The Sun . . .

(too easy or what?)

Band On The Run--Paul McCartney and Wings


Another...(I have every album this guy ever put out)

Now that I've lost everything to you,
you say you want to start something new,
and it's breaking my heart you're leaving,
baby I'm grieving.

But if you wanna leave take good care,
hope you have a lot of nice things to wear,
but then a lot of nice things turn bad out there.

Wild World - Jimmy Cliff or Cat Stevens? Whichever, both good versions . . .

try this:

All the trees are brown
And the sky is grey . . .

that's it!

Mama's and the Poppa's "California Dreamin'"

here's another one...

"Tell me a story about how you adore me
Live in the shadow, see through the shadow,
Live through the shadow, tear at the shadow
Hate in the shadow, and love in your shadowy_ life "

: Have You Seen Your Mother Baby, Standing In The Shadow? Rolling Stones


Here's a real one hit wonder...obscure, but played alot in it's day!

If a man ever needed dying he did
No one had a right to say what he said about you
And it's so cold and lonely here without you
Out there the law is coming
I've been so tired of running

REFRAIN

It hurts to see the man that I've become
To know I'll never see the morning sunshine on the land
I'll never see your smiling face or touch your hand
If just once more I could see
You, our home and our little baby

INDIANA WANTS ME
R. Dean Taylor

And on that mornin' when I wake up
We'll go outside and live our dreams
I'll buy you candies made of stardust
And little dolls dressed up in moonbeams

One Fine Morning...Lighthouse


Another (Song and group titles are the same)

Rebel souls
Deserters we are called
Chose a gun and threw away the sun
Now these towns
They all know our name; 6-gun sound is our claim to fame
I can hear them say...

Bad Company/Bad Company?

Try this:

Some folks trust to reason, others trust to might
I don't trust to nothing, but I know it come out right
Say it once again now, whoa I hope you'll understand
When it's done and over, Lord, a man is just a man

Grateful Dead--Playin' In The Band...

Last one for me this morning...really old from 1970!

When I get off of this mountain
You know where I want to go
Straight down the Mississippi river
To the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake George, Louisiana
Little Bessie, girl that I once knew
And she told me just to come on by
If there's anything she could do...

Hey, you sure live up to your name, alwaysawake! It must be anything between 1.30 and 4.30 in the morning over there, depending on what part of the states you are!

Anyway, back to biz . . .

"Up On Cripple Creek" by The Band? (Rock on Robbie R!)

New one for you:

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.

Helpless--Neil Young/CSN

Yes, it is 1:45 am--am off this week so gotta enjoy being able to stay up while I can! LOL

Another....(Wish I could sleep!)

When you walked into the room
There was voodoo in the vibes
Captured by your style
But I could not catch your eyes
Now I stand here helplessly
Hoping you'll get into me

Ah-ha! Atlanta Rhythm Section . . . So Into You? (I think!)

Try this:

It's getting near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you darling soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

Quite some time...I been sittin' it out
Didn't take no chances...I was a prisoner of doubt
I knocked down the wailin' wall....it ain't no sin
I...got...the feel of fortune...deal me in....

Straight On / Heart

If you return me, to my home port,
I will kiss you mother earth.
Take me back now, take me back now,
To the port of my birth.

One of my faves...Grand Funk Railroad...Closer To Home (I'm Your Captain)


Try this one...(from the 60's)

She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long
When she moves my brain screams out this song

Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see, you fool?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?

Hello, I Love You the Doors

 

[alwaysawake]

Since toni didn't post one...

try this--

On a morning from a Bogart movie
In a country where they turn back time
You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre
Contemplating a crime
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolour in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came...

(Next lyric is song title)

Another....(Great beat...always gets me moving!)

Kick off your shoes start losin' the blues
This old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor, come on baby shake sumpin' loose
