A Silly Old Romantic...

[TantaLiza]

Nights In White Satin
The Moody Blues

(Words and music by Justin Hayward)

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more
Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you

Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
They can't understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You'll be in the end
And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you, oh ....

Precious and Few
Climax

(Walter D. Nims)

Precious and few are the moments we too can share.
Quiet and blue, like the sky, I'm hung over you.
And if I can't find my way back home, it just wouldn't be fair
Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share.

Baby, it's you on my mind, our love is so rare.
Being with you is a feeling I just can't compare,
And if I can't hold you in my arms, it just wouldn't be fair
Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share.

 

[midwestyankee]

This may be the single finest rock ballad ever done. When I was living in Buffalo (back before the chicken wings were a national thing) there was a DJ who played Nights in White Satin as his closing song every night.

 

[69forever]

I really like John Prine...haven't thought of him in awhile...must be this old meloncholy mood...think I should just go post some pics and dream....

Love, Love, Love

John Prine


He stumbled through the alley with his long coat on
Nothing but a bottle in his hand
She sat in her apartment lonesome to the bone
Wondering what had happened to her man

Chorus:
Love, love, love, love
Nobody ever understands
All the things that go,
Between a woman and a man.

When they'd walk down the sidewalk the street would shine
With the kind of love no human heart can fake
And they vowed to stay together till the end of time
Like the couple that stands on top of the wedding cake

Repeat Chorus:

If I should live to a ripe old age
The only lesson I may ever learn
Is to not stand so close to the flame of love
Unless you are willing to get burned

Repeat Chorus:

All the things that go,
Between a woman and a man.


Pray all you Romantics have a prospourous and happy new year.
May all your dreams come true. I'm making mine come true.

I'm Stone in Love With You
The Stylistics

If I could I'd like to be, a great big movie star.
Overnight sensation, drive a big expensive car.
I would buy you everything your little heart desires.
These things I do, ‘cause I'm stone in love with you.
(Stone in love with you)

If I were a business man, I'd sit behind a desk.
I'd be so successful, I would scare Wall Street to death.
I would hold a meeting for the press to let them know.
I did it all, ‘cause I'm stone in love with you.
(Stone in love with you)

I'm just a man, an average man
doing everything the best I can
But if I could, I'd give the world to you...

I'd like to someday be the owner of the first house on the moon.
there would be no neighbors, and no population boom.
You might say that all I do is dream my life away.
I guess it's true, ‘cause I'm stone in love with you.
I guess it's true, ‘cause I'm stone in love with you.
I guess it's true, ‘cause I'm stone in love with you

It's eerie yet touching to the soul....

Never My Love
The Association

You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you
Never my love
Never my love

You wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose its desire for you
Never my love
Never my love

What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends
On you (on you)

Never my love
Never my love

You say you fear I'll change my mind
And I won't require you
Never my love
Never my love

How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life
With me (with me, with me)


***Love this song!!! Such harmony!!

LOL That was the first love song I ever sang to a woman...15 yr. old young man, smitten by her charms...I am a hopeless Romantic.

Could It Be I'm Falling In Love
Spinners

Since I met you I begun to feel so strange
Every time I speak your name (that's funny)
You say that you are so helpless too
That you don’t know what to do

Each night I pray there will never come a day
When you up and take your love away
Say you feel the same way too
And I wonder what it is I feel for you

Could it be I’m falling in love [With you baby]
Could it be I’m falling in love [Woo]
Could it be I’m falling in love
With you
With you
With you
[With you]

I don’t need all those things that used to bring me joy
You made me such a happy boy
And honey you’ll always be the only for me
Meeting you was my destiny

You can be sure I will never let you down
When you need me I’ll be around
And darling you’ll always be
The only for me
Heaven made you specially

Could it be I’m falling in love [With you baby]
Could it be I’m falling in love [Woo]
Could it be I’m falling in love
With you
With you
with you
[With you]

And darling you’ll always be
The only for me
Heaven made you specially

Could it be I’m falling in love [With you baby]
Could it be I’m falling in love [I wanna know now baby]
Could it be I’m falling in love
With you
With you
With you
[With you]

interlude

And darling you’ll always be
The only for me
Heaven made you specially

Could it be I’m falling in love [With you baby]
Could it be I’m falling in love [I wanna know now baby]
Could it be I’m falling in love
With you
With you
With you
[With you]

Could it be I’m falling in love
Could it be I’m falling in love
Could it be I’m falling in love
Could it be I’m falling in love
Could it be I’m falling in love

Ain't No Woman (Like the One I Got)
Four Tops

(Lambert/Potter)

(Ain't no woman like the one I've got.)
(Ain't no woman like the one I've got.)
(Ain't no woman like the one I've got.)

Every day the sun comes up around her.
She can make the birds sing harmony.
Every drop of rain is glad it found her.
Heaven must have made her just for me.
When she smiles so warm and tender,
A sight for sore eyes to see.

Oooh, (ain't no woman like the one I've got.)
Oh, no, they don't come better.
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot.)
She don't ask for things, no diamond rings.
(So together, like a hand in glove.)
Like pages in a letter.
(Ain't no woman like the one I love.)

She can fill me up when it's down I'm goin' (I'm goin').
Put a little music in my day.
Wouldn't be surprised if my love keeps growin' (it keeps growin').
Bigger every minute that she stays away.
I would kiss the ground she walks on,
'Cause it's my word, my word she'll obey, now.
Woo-ooh. (Ain't no woman like the one I've got.)
Well, I kiss the ground she walks on.
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot.)
She's a real good friend right to the end.
(So together like a hand in glove.)
A lonely man when she's gone.
(People, ain't no woman like the one I love.)

Oooh. What a good, good thing I've got.
She means to me a lot.

(Ain't no woman like the I've got.)
No, no, they don't come better.
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot.)
She don't ask for things, no diamond rings.
(So together, like a hand in glove.)
Like pages in a letter.
(Ain't no woman like the one I love, people.)

(Ain't no woman like the one I've got.)
Well, I kiss the ground she walks on.
(To make her happy doesn't take a lot.)
I'm a lonely man when my baby's gone.

Last one til dreams encompass my soul...

You Make Me Feel Brand New
Stylistics

My love
I'll never find the words, my love
To tell you how I feel, my love
Mere words, could not explain

Precious love
You held my life within your hands
Created everything I am
Taught me how to live again

Only you
Came when I needed a friend
Believed in me through thick and thin
This song is for you, filled with graditude and love...

God bless you
You make me feel brand new
For God bless me with you
You make me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

My love,
When ever I was insecure
You built me up and made me sure
You gave, my pride, back to me

Precious friend
With you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that sometimes bends

Without you
Life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay
You for havin' faith in me ...

God bless you
You made me feel brand new
For God bless me with you
You made me feel brand new
I sing this song for you


******Sorry for hijacking.... hope it touched you as it did me!

WEEKEND IN NEW ENGLAND
barry manilow

Last night
I waved goodbye
Now it seems years
I'm back in the city
Where nothing is clear
But thoughts of me
Holdin' you, bringing' us near

And tell me
When will or eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearnin' end
And when will I hold you again

Time in New England, took me away
Long rocky beaches and you by the bay
We started a story
Whose end must now wait

And tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearnin' end
And when will I see you again

I feel the change comin'
I feel the wind blowin'
I feel brave and daring
I fell my blood flow, ooh
With you I could bring out
All the love that I have
With you there's a heaven
So earth ain't so bad

And tell me
When will our eyes meet
When can I touch you
When will this strong yearnin' end
And when will I hold you again
Again....

Oh my, someone said they'd avoid this place like the plague if I remember right....LOL The Romance does call us all...nice to see you my freind. *I won't tell* LOL

Just playing some music before passing out...don't dream lonely dreams that way.

I'm sorry I screwed up and sent it to the wrong addy, new copy on the way, with a new card. I love you baby'

If I Ever Lose My Faith In You

Sting & Police


You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
You could say I lost my sense of direction
You could say all of this and worse, but
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do

Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on T.V.
You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
But every time I close my eyes, I see your face

I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse,
But let me say this first

If I ever lose my faith in you
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
There'd be nothing left for me to do
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith in you

good nite, my freinds. May love light up your life.

FOR YOU BLUE ~ The Beatles
(George Harrison)

Because you're sweet and lovely girl I love you,
Because you're sweet and lovely girl it's true,
I love you more than ever girl I do.
I want you in the morning girl I love you,
I want you at the moment I feel blue,
I'm living ev'ry moment girl for you.
I've loved you from the moment I saw you,
You looked at me that's all you had to do,
I feel it now I hope you feel it too.
Because you're sweet and lovely girl I love you,
Because you're sweet and lovely girl it's true,
I love you more than ever girl I do.
I really love you

Unforgettable
Natalie Cole
Duet with the late, great Nat King Cole

Unforgettable, that's what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

 

[Soron]

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

Good Evening Romantics....

It was a wonderful day today...and will be a great evening.

I got invited to be a special guest when a very good freind takes her formal engagement to it's conclusion of love and comittment.

My hat's off to you two lovebirds...ExistentialLove & Pollyjean, congratulations!!!! For you.

Desert Rose

Sting & Police


I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realise that nothing's as it seems

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of the fall

Funny How Love Is

Queen
Words and music by Freddie Mercury

Funny how love is everywhere just look and see
Funny how love is anywhere you're bound to be
Funny how love is every song in every key
Funny how love is coming home in time for tea
Funny funny funny oh
Funny how love is the end of the lies
When the truth begins tomorrow comes
Tomorrow brings tomorrow brings love
In the shape of things
That's what love is that's what love is

Funny how love can break your heart so suddenly
Funny how love came tumbling down with Adam and Eve
Funny how love is running wild feeling free
Funny how love is coming home in time for tea
Funny funny funny oh
From the earth below to the heavens above
That's how far and funny is love
At any time anywhere
If you gotta make love do it everywhere
That's what love is that's what love is

Funny how love is everywhere just look and see
Funny how love is anywhere you're bound to be
Funny how love is every song in every key
Funny how love is when you gotta hurry
'Cause you're late for tea
Funny funny funny oh
Tommorrow comes tomorrow brings
Tomorrow brings love in the shape of things
At any time anywhere
If you gotta make love do it everywhere
That's what love is that's what love is

Found this on a poetry submission site...

Finally
by Sugarpie

Moments of love frozen in time
Hearts racing, beating to one accord
Pulses accelerating, eyes sparkling
Anxiously awaiting the other
For that first touch, that first kiss...

The first time being face to face
Waiting feverishly for that first
I Love You
Finally together, with passion aglow
These feelings held at bay
Now unleashed for my Lover to hear
