See How Far This Goes...

[Arksided]

Hi everyone the last one no longer appears in recent posts...

Many know how to play, they isn't rules as such just post a song lyric that follows on from the previous one.
Feel free to have a natter along the way, artist is optional although helpful if a little obscure all I ask is you play nice Xx

The last song lyric posted was:

You can paint a picture 🖼
More than they can give you
History is written by the hands
That hold the future
Paint it bright
Paint it loud
Paint it now

Whitey

[Canary42]

Bright eyes, burning like fire
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes

 

Art Garfunkel

One of my favourite songs

[mushroom25]

I am the god of hellfire! And I bring you

Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
I'll see you burn

You fought hard and you saved and earned
But all of it's going to burn

And your mind, your tiny mind
You know you've really been so blind
Now's your time, burn your mind
You're falling far, too far behind
Oh no, oh no, oh no!
You're gonna burn

Arthur Brown
 

[Hazlinny]

Just blow out the candles
Oh, little boy, when will you learn?
You don't play with fire
Unless you wanna get burned, wanna get burned
Just blow out the candles
Oh, how the tables, they've turned
You don't play with fire
Unless you wanna get burned, you wanna get burned
(Wanna get burned, wanna, wanna get burned)

Grace Wanderwaal

[Arksided]

Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go and leave you all alone? Mhmm
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire

The Boss

[mushroom25]

Hey-hey
When everything goes wrong
Sometimes it makes no sense
Hey-hey
There once was a time
I should have known better then
Hey-hey
Although you may try
It won't come your way again

Hey, little girl
Where will you hide?
Who can you run to now?
Hey, little girl
Where will you go?
Who can you turn to now?

Hey, hey
So why should I care
If somebody let you down?
Hey, hey
That's nothing new
I know just what that can mean
Hey, hey
Well, the way that they talk
The talk is all over town
Hey, hey
And it's no surprise
Little girls hurt sometimes....

Davies, performed by Icehouse

[Arksided]

Can you hear them?
They talk about us
Telling lies
Well, that's no surprise

Can you see them?
See right through them
They have no shield
No secrets to reveal

The Go-Go's

[Hazlinny]

Listen
Do you want to know a secret?
Do you promise not to tell?
Whoa, oh, oh

Closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I'm in love with you
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ooh

Beatles

[mushroom25]

I see you walking everyday
With a smile beneath frown
But I won't look away, yeah
What does it mean?
What's there to see?

If I look closer
Closer, closer
Closer, closer
Closer, closer
Closer

Where are you going?
And what are you thinking at all?
Your eyes show nothing more
Than a dazed oblivion
What does it mean?
What will I see?

When I look closer....

The Corrs

[Moorea7]

If I stay then I'm alone, if I go then it will mean
Waiting on my own, it's the pattern of my life
When you care and you cannot feel and you know that it's for real
So you just leave me on my own to live the pattern of my life

Believe you might stumble and come closer now 💑

Keane

[Canary42]

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone. 

Let's pretend that we're together all alone. 

 

Jim Reeves

[mushroom25]

Outside, the rain begins
And it may never end
So cry no more
On the shore, a dream
Will take us out to sea
Forever more, forever more

Close your eyes and dream
And you can be with me
'Neath the waves
Through the caves of ours
Long forgotten now
We're all alone, we're all alone

Close the window, calm the light
And it will be alright
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
Learn how to pretend..
 

Boz Scaggs, also recorded by Frankie Valli, and Rita Coolidge

[Hazlinny]

Oh-oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
Pretending that I'm doing well
My need is such, I pretend too much
I'm lonely, but no one can tell

The Platters

[maggiebee]

Fate was not a question less than answers leading as she came around
I kind to feel like I'm losing you and losing time, and losing all that's true
Well someday I'll notice you in photographs in ashes of the past
But you can ever assure me that you'll always stay indestructible too
I'll pretend to understand my friend, I will pretend

 

[Arksided]

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

Bowie

[Moorea7]

But now there's a brand new dance 🕺
That's going around
I want to show you exactly what I'm talking about
I'm talking about the funky chicken, y'all ready?
I say y'all ready, okay, here we go

Rufus Thomas

[Arksided]

Its the time of year
Now that Spring is in the air
When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair
Make another song for moronic holidays
That nauseate-ate-ate
In a million different ways
From the shores of Spain
To the coast of Southern France
No matter where you hide
You just can't escape this dance 

Hold a chicken in the air
Stick a deckchair up your nose
Buy a jumbo jet
And then bury all your clothes
Paint your left knee green
Then extract your wisdom teeth
Form a string quartet
And pretend your name is Keith
 

Spitting Image. Written by Red Dwarf creators and writers Rob Grant and Doug Naylor. Two years before RD hit our screens.

[Moorea7]

Turn it up, turn it up now
Turn it up, turn it up loud🎵
Hope you think of me like I think of you
When you play that Keith

Kaylee Bell

[1ozzy]

Turn around
Every now and then
I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming 'round

 

[Moorea7]

What if you had it all
But nobody to call? 📞
Maybe then you'd know me
'Cause I've had everything
But no one's listening
And that's just really lonely

Justin Bieber

[maggiebee]

Only the lonely
Know the way I feel tonight
Only the lonely
Know this feeling ain't right

There goes my baby
There goes my heart
They're gone forever
So far apart

But only the lonely
Know why
I cry
Only the lonely

Roy Orbison
