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

[Moorea7]

You better watch out, you better not cry 😢
You better not pout, I'm telling you why:
Santa Claus is coming to town 

[1ozzy]

I know somebody and they cry for you
They lie awake at night and dream of you
I bet you never even knew they do
But somebody's crying

Chris Isaaks

[Moorea7]

You saw me crying in the chapel ⛪
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
Now I am happy with the Lord

Elvis

[1ozzy]

I worked hard all my lifetime
No help from my friends
Oh Lord, won't you buy me
A Mercedes Benz

[Moorea7]

I'm in love with my car 🚘
Got a feel for my automobile
Get a grip on my boy-racer Rollbar
Such a thrill when your radials squeal

Queen

[1ozzy]

I've been driving in my car
It's not quite a Jaguar
I bought it in Primrose Hill
From a bloke from Brazil
It was made in fifty-nine
In a factory by the Tyne

That's a bit of Madness

[Moorea7]

Could a copper 👮 catch a crooked coffin maker
Could a copper comprehend
That a crooked coffin maker is just an undertaker who
Undertakes to be a friend

'cause the fog on the Tyne is all mine, all mine
The fog on the Tyne is all mine
The fog on the Tyne is all mine, all mine
The fog on the Tyne is all mine

Lindisfarne

[mushroom25]

Oliver's Army is here to stay
Oliver's Army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
than here today

Hong Kong is up for grabs
London is full of Arabs
We could be in Palestine
Overrun by the Chinese lion
With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne

But there's no danger
It's a professional career
Though it could be arranged
With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear
If you're out of luck or out of work
We could send you to Johannesburg

Elvis Costello

1ozzy, your song is "You Better You Bet" by The Who

[Moorea7]

All I'm asking of you now
All I'm asking of you now
Where in the world must I go to find you?

Where in the world must I go to find you?
Where in the world 🌍
Where in the world 🌎

Swing out Sister

[Arksided]

Been around the world and I, I, I
I can't find my baby
I don't know when, I don't know why
Why he's gone away
And I don't know where he can be, my baby
But I'm gonna find him

Lisa Stansfield. Ozzy was having a little joke.😀

[Moorea7]

I've been looking for love 💕 in all the wrong places
Looking for love on all the wrong faces
And I know that I'm gonna, I'm gonna keep on searching
'Cause they say love that I found with you

Kings & Queens

 

[mushroom25]

Searching for that something that I'll never find
In another place, another time
Searching for that something that I can believe
And without a doubt that I can see

All the many roads I've traveled (roads I've traveled)
Come so far and done so much
He leads me back to you when I can

Searching
When I'm lost and need to find myself
Where this road will lead no, one can tell
Searching for that something that I've left behind
Make me see that I've been far too blind

All the many roads I've traveled (I've traveled)
Come so far and done so much
He leads me back to you when I can

I've got a woman who loves me, baby
I've got a woman who loves me, baby (I got a woman, yeah)....

China Black

[Moorea7]

Is there anybody out there waiting for me on my way?
If that somebody is you, then baby, I just wanna say
Tonight, nothing will bring us down
Tonight, we're at the lost and found

Guess I need to run, take me to the bus 🚌
But don't let me go, no, don't let me on
Gotta hold me tight, won't put up a fight
Of course I'll stay, I'll stay the night

Ellie Goulding

[maggiebee]

Tonight, I'm gonna make it up to you
Tonight, I'm gonna make love to you
Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you, baby
Tonight, I dedicate my heart to you
Tonight, I'm gonna be a part of you
Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you, baby
Tonight, I'm gonna make it up to you
Tonight, I'm gonna make love to you
Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you, baby
Tonight, I dedicate my heart to you
Tonight, I'm gonna be a part of you
Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you
And I miss you so

Westlife

Tonight won't be like any night
Tonight the stars up in the sky
Will be shining for me and my baby tonight

Tonight we'll climb the highest height

Just talking till the morning light
Me and my baby tonight
Oh, tonight

Tonight was made for me and my baby
To hold each other so tight
And all the darkness will fade away
The light in your eyes tonight

Tonight won't be like any night...

Bickerton/Waddington, performed by The Rubettes

[Moorea7]

Remembering the night again
So cold outside, the snow began
That winter stone cold like a life
Your eyes were wide enough to fill
I was so bored, it should've spilled
Chicago skyline lit the night 🏢

Mest

[maggiebee]

I met her on the way to Chicago
Where she was all alone
And so was I so I asked her for her name
She smiled and looked at me
I was surprised to see
That a woman like that was really into me

Michael Jackson

[Moorea7]

Lyrics

… Well, I walked up to her and I asked her if she wanted to dance
She looked awful nice, and so I hoped she might take a chance
When we danced, I held her tight
Then I walked her home that night
And all the stars were shining bright, and then I kissed her x

Beach Boys

[Ken4155]

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance

I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola

L O L A Lola

La la la la Lola

Kinks

[mushroom25]

that song was well ahead of its time Ken

🎵And I'd never, ever kissed a woman before 🎵

Hey Ray, have I got news for you....... 🤣
