I Love Lyrics

badger

lol apple, that was hilarious!! 

Suzanne, yours is REO- Take it on the Run

Mm I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue

Kay_G

Took me by surprise when I found out yesterday, I Heard It Through the Grape Vine by Marvin Gaye



I think this is a hard one:



We awoke from our dream

Things are not always what they seem

Memories linger on

It's like a sweet, sad old song

badger

you're right Kay, that IS hard... it's tickling the back of my brain but I have to say IDK  :-)

Can We Still Be Friends?  --  Todd Rundgren

Save me, free me from my heart this time
Train's going down the track and I stay behind

Lose Again - Karla Bonoff wrote it but Linda Ronstadt made it famous

You know I saw Miss Lucy down along the track
She lost her home and her family and she won't be comin' back

Long Train Running  -  Doobie Bros.

When the train left the station, it had two lights on behind

Yeah, the train left the station, it had two lights on behind

Well, the blue light was my baby and the red light was my mind

Love in Vain by Rolling Stones







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 will be in the end.

Kay_G

Knights in White Satin by the Moody Blues, love that song!

And you're playing so cool
Obeying every rule
I dig a way down in your
heart
You're burning, yearning for songs

Footloose by Kenny Loggin



Someone painted "April Fool" in big black letters on a "Dead End" sign

I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind

Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare

Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere

Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was in) --  The First Edition

Lord my body has been a good friend
But I won't need it when I reach the end

Miles From Nowhere by Cat Stevens  

That is really interesting, because this morning I was thinking about how great the soundtrack for Harold & Maude was.  I was thinking about it because I heard this song......

And if you want be me be me

And if you want to be you be you

There's a million things to do

You know that there are

If You Want To Sing Out  -  Cat Stevens

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...yeah... yeah... yeah.

(There might be a lot of songs with this???  I tried to indicate the rhythm too.)

Additional clue:  The first lyric is the very start of the song.  Another line is:

Try a little do-re-mi-fs-so-la-ti-do.

badger

can't quite place it -- what comes to mind is She Loves You yeah yeah yeah but that's not it..

Suzanne3131

Is it Do You Love Me Now That I Can Dance?

badger

ooh, how about Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and The Waves?

elimar86861

Look at original post, I've added another clue.

badger

Thanks for the clue, still didn't help me so I googled and came up with Sing a Simple Song

by Sly and the Family Stone -- Listened to it and I still didn't know it!  Tough one, elimar!

Well the rain exploded with a mighty crash
As we fell into the sun.
And the first one said to the second one there
I hope you're having fun.

Band On The Run....Paul McCartney and Wings

It took so long just to realize

I'm much too strong not to compromise

Now I see,  what I am is holding me down 

I'll turn it around....Oh yes I will! 

badger

it's Boston ... I can hear Brad Delp's voice ... but I can't retrieve the song title! 

Suzanne3131

hint:  Title track

badger

Don't Look Back   (thanks for the hint!)

Her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

luv2trav

Hotel califonia?

badger

yep!  Now it's your turn to pose some new lyrics. 

badger

OK how about this:

I'm no prophet, I don't know natures way
So I'll try to see into your eyes right now
And stay right here, 'cause these are the good old days.

badger

and that's Anticipation by Carly Simon.  I was listening to an old mix tape and heard this one:

He's a northern baby and a southern child.
He's a gentleman lost at the fair.
He's a cowboy, gettin' drunk at the plaza.
He has a place in my heart, anywhere.

badger

and that's Mind on my Man by Carly Simon, a beautiful song she wrote about James Taylor.

I might find the courage yeah I might get up the nerve
But if my timing ain't just right what purpose would it serve?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know how
To say those first few words 

Suzanne3131

That's Billy Joel.....Get It Right The First Time

Thanks for a great blast from the past, badger!

Your hands build me up when I'm sinking

Touch me and my troubles all fade 

badger

Lady - Styx

Church-house, gin-house
School-house, out-house
On highway number nineteen
The people keep the city clean

Nutbush City Limits - Ike & Tina Turner

We can do "The Innuendo"
We can dance and sing
When it's said and done we haven't told you a thing
We all know that crap is king

Suzanne3131

Dirty Laundry....Don Henley

And the way we run our lives

It makes no sense to me 

I don't know about yourself

Or what you wanna be
