Hello ๐Ÿ‘‹ where is everyone?
Apologies if anyone else has started a new song lyrics thread, I can't see it.

We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way,
Oh yes, we've just begun.

Catch a falling star ๐ŸŒŸ and put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away.

Talkin' to myself and feelin' old
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothin' ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothin' to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down

Grandyma Thu 15-Feb-24 16:48:55

Monday, Monday, so good to me
Monday mornin', it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday mornin', Monday mornin' couldn't guarantee
That Monday evenin' you would still be here with me

Monday, Monday, can't trust that day
Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday mornin' you gave me no warnin' of what was to be
Oh Monday, Monday, how could you leave and not take me

dayvidg Fri 16-Feb-24 11:42:53

How could I leave
How could I possibly go on
If you should say goodbye
Just like a rose
If you don't water it every morn
It withers and it dies

Grannmarie Mon 19-Feb-24 00:32:24

All my bags are packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
But the dawn is breaking, its early morn,
Taxi's waiting, it's blowing its horn.
Already I'm so lonesome I could cry,
Cos I'm leaving on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again...

dayvidg Mon 19-Feb-24 14:08:39

I've never seen a night so long
And time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the clouds
To hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die?
Like me, he's lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome, I could cry

Grandyma Mon 19-Feb-24 15:16:50

I've been left with nothin'
No one's lovin' me
I'm so down not hopin'

Oh lonesome me
your heart is like a diamond
still know your perfume
But you went and left me, now I aint got you

I've been left with nothin'
no one's lovin' me
I'm so down not hopin'
Oh Lonesome me

Oh lonesome me
Oh poor poor me
oh the pain
oh lonesome me

Grannmarie Mon 19-Feb-24 15:52:40

Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?

dayvidg Tue 20-Feb-24 14:00:49

Well, he walked up to me
And he asked me if I wanted to dance
He looked kinda nice
And so I said, "I might take a chance"
When he danced, he held me tight
And when he walked me home that night
All the stars were shining bright
And then he kissed me

Grandyma Tue 20-Feb-24 23:47:26

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey, I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey, I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

dayvidg Wed 21-Feb-24 11:26:47

When you get weak, and you need to test your will
When life's complete, but there's something missing still
Distracting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Don't let another day go by without the magic touch
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Convincing you (change your mind)

65KL Thu 22-Feb-24 08:56:45

I'm looking through at yesterday
All my life thrown away
Keep searching for the same old clue
How can I get to you

Cast your spell upon me one more time
I wanna feel your magic woman touch
Cast your spell upon me one more time
I wanna feel your magic woman touch

Grandyma Thu 22-Feb-24 10:47:27

My loneliness is killin' me (And I)
I must confess, I still believe (Still believe)
When I'm not with you, I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

dayvidg Thu 22-Feb-24 12:34:24

I'm goin' way down south to Louisiana tonight.
Well I'll just close my eyes and everything's all right.
And though I'm really far away, will I make my getaway.
And no one need know that I've been gone.
One more time, for the good times, that far outweigh the bad.
One more time, for the good times, when love was all we had.
I'm goin' way down south to Baton Rouge tonight.
Well I'll just close the door and turn off all the lights.

Grannmarie Thu 22-Feb-24 18:57:11

Close the door, light the lights,
We're staying home tonight
Far away from the bustle and the bright city lights
Let them all fade away, just leave us alone
And we'll live in a world of our own.

65KL Thu 22-Feb-24 20:10:54

Nothing can change it , the mgucs begun
When we're together, our hearts become one
I find a happiness I've never known
When we're in a world of our own
When we're in a world of our own

65KL Thu 22-Feb-24 20:11:59

( mgucs should read magics)

Come what may, she believes
And that faith is something
I've never known before
Come what may, she loves me
And that love has helped me open a door
Making me love myself a little more

Grandyma Fri 23-Feb-24 15:04:58

And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl
I could change the world
With my little songs, I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night
If my song is right
I will find a way

One of my favourite bands..... And something a little bit different!

Well I found her on the beach in Canvey Island
She had flowers on her chest and in her hair
We jumped over the fence into the fairground
And tried to win some prizes there

On the fishing game I couldn't make the pickup
On the coconuts I was a little too shy
We had a little storm inside a teacup
And I never had the chance to say goodbye

Oh Canvey Island girl
I hate to waste a good view
Oh Canvey Island girl
Of the fireworks above you
Oh Canvey Island girl
I think I love you

I was looking for a little amusement
Somebody with whom to pass the time
Her presence was a definite improvement
On this cynical demeanour of mine
Well I asked her for her hand in marriage
Maybe it was a little too soon
At midnight we departed in a Hackney carriage
By the light of the estuary moon

Oh Canvey Island girl
I hate to waste a good view
Oh Canvey Island girl
Of the fireworks above you
Oh Canvey Island girl
I think I love you

She said Canvey Island makes me feel good
Seaside glamour makes me feel good
Wilko Johnson makes me feel good yeah

Oh Canvey Island girl
I hate to waste a good view
Oh Canvey Island girl
Of the fireworks above you
Oh Canvey Island girl
I think I love you

This is my island in the sun
Where my people have toiled since time begun
I may sail on many a sea
Her shores will always be home to me

Oh, island in the sun
Willed to me by my father's hand
All my days I will sing in praise
Of your forest, waters
Your shining sand

dayvidg Sat 24-Feb-24 12:15:54

My father always promised us
That we would live in France
We'd go boating on the Seine
And I would learn to dance
We lived in Ohio then
He worked in the mines
On his dreams like boats
We knew we would sail in time

65KL Mon 26-Feb-24 03:06:57

I am sailing I am sailing
Home again cross the sea
I am sailing stormy waters
To be with you , to be free
I am flying I am flying
Like a bird cross the sky
I am flying ,passing high cloud
To be with you , to be free

Grannmarie Mon 26-Feb-24 11:16:36

Sailor, stop your roaming
Sailor, leave the sea
Sailor, when the tide turns
Come home safely to me.

dayvidg Mon 26-Feb-24 11:54:31

It's that time again when I lose my friends
Go walkabout, I've got the bends from pressure
This is a testing time when the choice is mine
Am I a fool for love or foolish for desire
You can throw him out you can spit on him
Call what he does a sin if it makes you feel better
And I can't believe you're all I'll ever need
And I need to feel that you're not holding me
And the way I feel just makes me want to scream
Come home, come home, come home
Come home, come home, come home
