ISO 80s lyrics - The challenge

[tonitits]

Here's another (can't believe I am doing this one!)

I took my baby to the doctor
With a fever, but nothing he found
By the time this hit the street
They said she had a breakdown
Someone's always tryin' to start my baby cryin'
Talkin', squealin', lyin'
Sayin' you ...(Next lyric is the song title)

going to be starting something Michael Jackson

new lyrics:

I get up in the morning
And I see your face girl
You're looking so good
Everything's in place
Don't you know I
Could never leave your side girl
Won't you stay here with me
And be my bride
Don't you know you're my kind
You're just what I like
Girl you're everything
Don't you know you're all right
The only girl
I've always needed for so long

New Kids On the Block--Cover Girl

New set--(One hit wonder)

Cry
Come to me and cry
I know, I know, I know it's not easy
Your heart is aching
But so is mine,
How can I tell you
Why
For so long, so long, so long,
I've been thinking
Now I know
I can't live a lie

 

[cheesy80s]

Basia, I think....

Come to me and cry....is Basia. Can't remember the title....


Okay:

"The wind blows hard against this mountain side, across the sea into my soul. It reaches in to where I cannot hide, setting my feet upon the road...."

Artist is correct...song title is Cruisin' For Bruisin'.

Here's another set--(Pacific NW Artist)

I heat up, I can't cool down
You got me spinnin'
'Round and 'round
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes
Where it stops nobody knows

Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burnin' flame
Burnin' flame full of desire
Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher

new lyrics

Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let the fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusation before
And I ain't gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your Eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing

The wind blows hard against the mountain side
across the sea unto my soul
it reaches in to where I cannot hide
setting my feet upon the road

Kyrie--Mister Mister

Another...(A bit country...but a crossover hit)

Well the midnight headlight find you on a rainy night
steep grade up ahead slow me down makin no time

those windshield wipers slappin out a tempo
keepin perfect rhythm with the song on the radio
gotta keep rolling...

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy

Rick Astley--Never Gonna Give You Up


next...("Easy one)

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of, does he look like me?
Do you tell lies and say that it's forever?
Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see?
Oooh babe

When you're alone, do you let go?
Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show?
Ooh c'mon

Def Leppard Love Bites

There was a time when
Broken hearts and broken dreams
Were over.
There was a place where
All you could do was
Wish on a four leaf clover.

But now is a new time
There is a new place
Where dreams just can't come true.
It started the day when I left you (oh)

Foolish Beat--Debbie Gibson (Ewwwwwwww!)

Next...

Midnight, gettin' uptight. Where are you?
You said you'd meet me, now it's quarter to two
I know I'm hangin' but I'm still wantin' you.
Hey, Jack, It's a fact they're talkin' in town.
I turn my back and you're messin' around.
I'm not really jealous, don't like lookin' like a clown.
I think of you ev'ry night and day.
You took my heart, then you took my pride away...

AH! Awesome Song!!!1

The Church....Under the Milkyway.

One of my funeral dirges, if I have my druthers.

Anyway, here's my popper:

Boats steamin' in, oh, watch the sidewheel spin
and I think about her when I hear that whistle blow
I can't change my mind, oh, I knew all the time
that she'd go, but that's a choice I made long ago.....


Anyone know this one?

Are you hiding somewhere behind those eyes?"

Good Job! That's a toughie.....


"I could feel at the time
there was no way of knowing
fallen leaves in the night
who can say where they're blowing
as free as the wind
and hopefully learning
why the sea on the tide
has no way of turning......

See the people walking down the street
Fall in line just watching all their feet
They don't know where they wanna go

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide

Elton John--I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues

Another set...

Can't seem to get my mind off of you
Back here at home there's nothin' to do
Now that I'm away
I wish I'd stayed
Tomorrow's a day of mine
that you won't be in

When you looked at me I should've run
But I thought it was just for fun
I see I was wrong
And I'm not so strong
I should've known all along
that time would tell

Underneath the waves
Mermaids wavin'
Wavin' to mermen
Wavin' sea fans
Sea horses sailin'

Rock Lobster B-52

Some people ain't no damn good
You can't trust 'em you can't love 'em
No good deed goes unpunished
And I don't mind bein' their whippin' boy
I've had that pleasure for years and years
No no I never was a sinner--tell me what else can I do
Second best is what you get 'til you learn to bend the rules
And time respects no person--what you lift up must fall
They're waiting outside to claim my tumblin' walls
Saw my picture in the paper
Read the news around my face
And now some pepole don't want to treat me the same

Crumblin' Down--John Cougar Mellencamp


I was tired of my lady,
We've been together too long.
Like a worn-out recording,
Of a favorite song.
So while she lay there sleeping,
I read the paper in bed.
And in the personals column,
There was this letter I read:
