I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock I am an island

Grannmarie Mon 23-Jan-23 10:59:50

Little does she know
That I know that she knows
That I know she's two timing me...

Caleo Mon 23-Jan-23 12:05:18

I leaned my back against an oak

I thought it was a trusty tree

But first it bent and then it broke

So my true love did lightly me.

Hiraeth Mon 23-Jan-23 12:37:23

Tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree
It’s been three long years do you still want me

MiniMoon Mon 23-Jan-23 13:04:26

Baby, I'm-a want you
Baby, I'm-a need you
You're the only one I care enough to hurt about
Maybe I'm-a crazy, but I just can't live with out
Your lovin' and affection, givin' me direction
Like a guiding light to help me through my darkest hour

Caleo Mon 23-Jan-23 13:42:23

Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom
Lead thou me on
The night is dark, and I am far from home
Lead thou me on
Keep thou my feet, I do not ask to see
The distant scene, one step enough for me

lovebeigecardigans1955 Mon 23-Jan-23 15:56:46

Then you gazed up at me
And the answer was plain to see
'cause I saw the light in your eyes

dayvidg Mon 23-Jan-23 17:02:44

Weaver of life, let me look and see
The pattern of my life gone by
Shown on your tapestry

creativeness Mon 23-Jan-23 17:08:11

Eldewiss Eldewiss every morning you greet me small and white small and bright you look happy to me blossom of snow bloom and grow bloom and grow

pandapatch Mon 23-Jan-23 17:17:42

It's four in the morning, the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening

Caleo Mon 23-Jan-23 17:38:13

It's three o'clock in the morning
We've danced the whole night through
And daylight soon will be dawning
Just one more waltz with you
That melody so entrancing
Seems to be made for us two
I could just keep on dancing forever dear with you
There goes the three o'clock chime, chiming, rhyming
My heart keeps beating in time
Sounds like an old sweet love tune
Say that there soon will be a honeymoon
It's three o'clock in the morning
We've danced the whole night through
And daylight soon will be dawning
Just one more waltz with you
That melody so entrancing
Seems to be made for us two
I could just keep on dancing forever dear with you

SachaMac Mon 23-Jan-23 17:45:44

I needed the shelter of someone's arms
And there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
And there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you, baby
I wanna stop and thank you baby, yes I do
How sweet it is to be loved by you

Caleo Mon 23-Jan-23 17:50:15

In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna have a girl in my arms
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I just gotta have a honey holdin' me tight
You can keep your knittin' and purlin'
If I'm gonna go to Berlin
Gimme a girl in my arms tonight

Hiraeth Mon 23-Jan-23 18:12:09

Had to get the train from Potsdamer Platz
you never knew that i could do that
just walking the dead

Grannmarie Mon 23-Jan-23 18:22:36

Train whistle blowing makes a squeaky noise
Underneath the blankets go all the girls and boys
Rocking, rolling, riding, out along the bay,
All bound for Morningtown, many miles away.

Caleo Mon 23-Jan-23 18:24:36

Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories
Got my bag, got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
I long to hear that all aboard
Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven
I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Countin' every mile of railroad track
That takes me back
Never thought my heart could be so yearning
Why did I decide to roam?
I gotta take this sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

Grandyma Mon 23-Jan-23 19:31:21

Never thought I'd fall,
But now I hear love call,
Things you say and do,
Just thrill me through and through,
I'm getting sentimental over you.
I thought I was happy,
I could live without love
Now I must admit,
Love is all I'm thinking of
Won't you please be kind,
And just make up your mind
That you'll be sweet & gentle,
Be gentle with me
Because I'm sentimental over you

SachaMac Mon 23-Jan-23 19:34:34

Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could
Little things I should have said and done
I never took the time
… You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

dayvidg Mon 23-Jan-23 19:37:25

Do you ever get that feeling and wanna kiss and hug her?
Do it now tell her you love her.
Don't do to your mom what I did to mine.
She grew so lonely in the end.
Angels picked her for a friend...(Never)
And I can never go home...(never) anymore
And that's called "sad."...

Caleo Tue 24-Jan-23 00:16:49

In her eyes there's the blue of Killarney
On her cheeks the rose of Kildare
On her lips just a bit of blarney
and the rose of Kildare in her hair
She was cradled and born
on St. Patrick's morn
with a smile on her face so sublime
She's as sweet as the day
She stole Dad's heart away
That old Irish Mother of mine

SachaMac Tue 24-Jan-23 12:26:02

On the fourth of July, 1806
We set sail from the sweet cove of Cork
We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks
For the Grand City Hall in New York
'Twas a wonderful craft
She was rigged fore and aft
And oh, how the wild wind drove her
She stood several blasts
She had twenty-seven masts
And they called her The Irish Rover

Caleo Tue 24-Jan-23 13:47:50

As I cruised out one eve-e-ning upon a night's career
I spied a lofty clipper ship and to her I did steer
I heisted out my sig-a-nals which she so quickly knew
And when she saw my bunting fly she imme-diately hove to-woo-woo
I took her for some fish and chips and treated her so fine
And hardly did I realize she was the rovin' kind
I kissed her lips, I missed her lips and found to my surprise
She was nothin' but a pirate ship rigged up in a dis-guy-eye-ise
And her hair hung down in ring-a-lets
(She was a nice girl, a proper girl but one of the rovin' kind)

LadyHonoriaDedlock Tue 24-Jan-23 14:25:48

There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis
Just like you swore to me that you'd be true
There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis
But he's a liar and I'm not sure about you, ow!

Caleo Tue 24-Jan-23 15:40:43

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

Grandyma Tue 24-Jan-23 15:51:35

Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming
I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning
And nothing can cool me
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine

dayvidg Tue 24-Jan-23 16:30:30

Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
(Smoke) on the water
