When you're near
There's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye

She's Venus in blue jeans
Mona Lisa with a ponytail
She's walkin' talkin' work of art
She's the girl who stole my heart
My Venus in blue jeans
Is the Cinderella I adore
She's my very special angel, too
A fairy tale come true

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa
Men have named you
You are so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only cause you're lonely
They have blamed you
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there, and they die there
Are you warm, are you real Mona Lisa
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants yo stay for awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

You've long been on the open road
You've been sleepin' in the rain
From dirty words and muddy cells
You're clothes are soiled and stained
But the dirty words, the mud of cells
Will soon be judged insane
So only stop and rest yourself
And you'll be off again
Oh take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hard and weary
From a dusty mile
And maybe I can make you laugh
And maybe I can try
Looking for the evening
And the morning in your eyes

Grandyma Sun 16-Mar-25 16:24:47

… In your eyes, I can see my dream's reflections
In your eyes, found the answers to my questions
In your eyes, I can see the reasons why our love's alive
In your eyes, we're drifting safely back to shore
And I think I've finally learned to love you more
… You warned me that life changes
That no one really knows
Whether time would make us strangers
Or whether time would make us grow
Even though the winds of time will change
In a world where nothing stays the same
Through it all our love will still remain
… In your eyes , I can see the reasons why our love's alive
You and I , we're drifting safely back to shore
And I think I've finally learned to love you more

Her hair is Harlow gold
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll turn her music on you
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow
She's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precious and she knows just
What it will take to make you blush
She's got Greta Garbo stand off sighs
She's got Bette Davis Eyes

Blue is the colour of my true loves eyes
in the morning, when we rise
In the morning, when we rise
That's the time
Oh that's the time
I love her best...

65KL Mon 17-Mar-25 06:27:48

Early in the morning, rising to the street
Light me up a cigarette and I strap shoes to my feet
Got to find a reason, a reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason all my money's gone
I've go a dalmatian and I can still get high
I can play the guitar like a mother f** riot
Well life is too short, so love the one you got
Cause you might get run over or you might get shot
Never start no static I just get it off my chest
Never had to battle with a bullet proof vest
Take a small example, take a hint from me
Take all your money and give it yo charity
Love is that I got
Love is what I got

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to
Concentration slip away
Because your baby is so far away
Well, there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love, honey
Love the one you're with

65KL Mon 17-Mar-25 23:25:44

Slip slidin away
Slip slidin away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin away

I knew a man
Became from my hometown
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said "Delores, I live in fear
My love for you is so overpowering
I'm afraid I will disappear "

dayvidg Tue 18-Mar-25 14:14:40

You've seen him
In the undirected light of street dreams
Doing nothing
Standing, like to seem casual
With a resemblance to people held by fear
Lit by fire and disrepair
The blue millionaire
Don't listen and keep asking
Only stories reach this far
No one's left and no one's coming
And I will disappear far away from you
The American wind and the blue millionaire

Grannmarie Tue 18-Mar-25 19:48:31

Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar 🎸 it sang so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio 📻
Don't you remember you told me you loved me, baby
Said you'd be coming back to me one day , baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, your baby
I love you, I really do.

Grandyma Wed 19-Mar-25 10:11:12

Who draws the crowd and plays so loud
Baby it's the guitar man
Who's gonna steal the show
You know, baby, it's the guitar man
He can make you love
He can make you cry
He will bring you down
Then he'll get you high
Somethin' keeps him goin'
Miles and miles a day
To find another place to play
Night after night who treats you right
Baby, it's the guitar man
Who's on the radio
You go listen to the guitar man
Then he comes to town
And you see his face
And you think you might
Like to take his place
Somethin' keeps him driftin'
Miles and miles away
Searchin' for the songs to play
Then you listen to the music
And you like to sing along
You want to get the meaning
Out of each and every song
Then you find yourself a message
And some words to call your own
And take them home

65KL Wed 19-Mar-25 12:10:45

Don't you feel it growing day by day
People gettin ready to hear the news
Some are happy,some are sad
Oh we got to let the music play
What the people need
Is a way to make them smile
It ain't that hard if you know what to do
Gotta get a message
Got to get it through
Oh now mama's going to after awhile
Oh oh listen to the music
Oh oh listen to the music
Oh oh listen to the music
All the time

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I am music
And i write the songs...

crazyH Wed 19-Mar-25 12:51:38

I'd like to build a world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow white turtle doves
I'd like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I'd like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company

dayvidg Wed 19-Mar-25 18:15:05

Ziggy really sang
Screwed-up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan
He could lick 'em by smiling
He could leave 'em to hang
They came on so loaded, man
Well-hung and snow-white tan

65KL Wed 19-Mar-25 21:00:20

Dose she wear tight clothes- yeah yeah
A real wild hairdo-yeah yeah
She's a hippy - yeah
Tripping- yeah
Child - yeah
Wild- yeah

Grandyma Wed 19-Mar-25 22:20:59

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky (Sky)
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long, I'd probably break down and cry
Woah, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Woah, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine

dayvidg Thu 20-Mar-25 17:54:54

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe
That you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
In private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by

Grandyma Thu 20-Mar-25 19:08:18

People see us everywhere
They think you really care
But myself, I can't deceive
I know it's only make-believe
My one and only prayer is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true, my one and only you
No one will ever know how much I love you so
My only prayer will be, some day you'll care for me
But it's only make-believe

dayvidg Fri 21-Mar-25 16:51:53

If only you cared
Not to kill not to torture
Not to need to cause pain
Fear and suffering
To be cool
You'd have all the friends
And the ends and the means
To live with the give
And the fox in the glove
On this jewel
But that's you
Only you
Of all us creatures on earth
That could only be you

Grandyma Fri 21-Mar-25 23:53:03

Only you can make all this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Oh, only you can do make all this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you

65KL Sat 22-Mar-25 03:28:54

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

dayvidg Sat 22-Mar-25 17:44:04

All alone, I sit looking out of the window
And the rain just keeps coming on down
Well, I cried to myself so many things have I done wrong
Now I'm watching you walk out
There goes my baby, moving on down the line
Wonder where, wonder where
Wonder where he is bound
I broke his heart and made him cry
Now I'm alone, so all alone
What can I do? What can I do?
