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

Grandyma Mon 24-Mar-25 15:12:47

What shall I write?
What can I say?
How can I tell you how much I miss you?
The weather here has been as nice as it can be
Although it doesn't really matter much to me
For all the fun I'll have while you're so far away
It might as well rain until September

I get the same old dreams same time every night
Fall to the ground and I wake up
So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head
Thoughts fly back to the breakup
These four wall are closing in
Look at the fix you put me in
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I'm out of my head can't take it
Could I be wrong
But since you been gone
You cast your spell so break it

Bit of a mix-up there - Sorry.

Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone
But it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me

Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friend.

I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again.

Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right, or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long.

We can work it out
We can work it out

Turn around bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turn around bright eyes
Every now and then
I fall apart

Turn around
Every now and then
I get a little bit restless
And I dream of something wild

Turn around
Every now and then
I get a little bit helpless
And I'm lying in your arms like a child

Turn around
Every now and then
I get a little bit angry
And I know I must get out and cry

Turn around
Every now and then
I get a little bit terrified
But then I look into your eyes

dayvidg Wed 26-Mar-25 14:19:52

I wish I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now
Cause there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face

65KL Thu 27-Mar-25 00:02:25

Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here, but your not
Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones we've lost on the way
Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you

Morning all
I'd like to tell you about when I was a young boy
Musta been three or four months old at the time
I didn't really know what I wanted
And if I did, I wouldn't have been able to tell anybody, 'cause all I could do was gurgle
So I sat there in me high-chair, thinking one day
Looking at me tray and thinking, "What I'd give for a meal on there!"
So I started looking 'round to see what I could have
I was rubbing me eggy soldier in me head, trying to think
And then I looked in the corner and there's a little bread bin with its mouth open
Just staring at me, like
And then I looked in and I saw bread
I thought, oh yeah, I'll have toast
A little piece of toast

Must have been cold there in my shadow

crazyH Thu 27-Mar-25 18:08:59

It must have been cold there in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face
You were content to let me shine, that's your way
You always walked a step behind
So I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength
A beautiful face without a name for so long
A beautiful smile to hide the pain
Did you ever know that you're my hero?
And everything I would like to be
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings

Grandyma Fri 28-Mar-25 00:32:38

Who knows what tomorrow brings
In a world few hearts survive
All I know is the way I feel
When it's real, I keep it alive
The road is long
There are mountains in our way
But we climb a step every day
Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagles cry
On a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
Far from the world below
Up where the clear winds blow

crazyH Fri 28-Mar-25 01:05:15

Your world was so different
From mine, don't you see?
We just couldn't be close
Though we tried
We both reached for heavens
But ours weren't the same
That's what happens
When two worlds collide

dayvidg Fri 28-Mar-25 14:55:47

There we shall spend our final days of our lives
Tell the same old stories, yeah, well, at least we tried
Into the West, smiles on our faces, we'll go
Oh, yes, and our apologies to those
Who'll never really know the way
We're refugees, walking away from the life
That we've known and loved
Nothing to do nor say, nowhere to stay
Now we are alone
We're refugees, carrying all we own
In brown bags, tied up with string
Nothing to think, it doesn't mean a thing
But we'll be happy on our own

Grandyma Fri 28-Mar-25 16:27:03

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts
is the only sound

Runnin' just as fast as we can
Holdin' on to one another's hand
Tryin' to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

crazyH Fri 28-Mar-25 16:50:51

Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apart
Does your memory stray
To a brighter sunny day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart

dayvidg Sat 29-Mar-25 15:53:34

Do you ever wake up lonely
In the middle of the night
Because you miss me,
Do you darling
Oh and do your memories ever take you back
Into another place in time
And do you ever miss the feelings and the love
We shared when you were with me, do you darling
I just wonder do I cross your mind

crazyH Sat 29-Mar-25 18:09:57

I love you because you’re understanding
Every single thing you try to do
I love you for a hundred thousand reasons
I love you most of all because you’re you

Grandyma Sun 30-Mar-25 15:40:07

Oh, my love
A thousand kisses from you is never too much
I just don't wanna stop
Oh, my love
A million days in your arms is never too much
I just don't wanna stop
Too much, never too much, never too much, never too much
Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started
I called you up, but you weren't there, and I was broken-hearted
Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demanding
Opened the door up and to my surprise, there, you were standing
Well, who needs to go to work to hustle for another dollar?
I'd rather be with you 'cause you make my heart scream and holler
Love is a gamble, and I'm so glad that I am winning
We've come a long way and yet this is only the beginning

dayvidg Sun 30-Mar-25 21:56:43

I will tell some power broker
What they did for Iacocca
Will be perfectly acceptable to me
I am changing my name to Chrysler
I am headed for that great receiving line
So when they hand a million grand out
I'll be standing with my hand out
Yes sire I'll get mine

When my creditors are screaming for their dough
I'll be proud to tell them all where they can all go
They won't have to scream and holler
They'll be paid to the last dollar
Where the endless streams of money seem to flow
I'll be glad to tell them what they can do
It's a matter of a simple form or two
It's not just renumeration it's a liberal education
Ain't you kind of glad that I'm in debt to you

65KL Sun 30-Mar-25 22:29:39

If you see a faded sign on the side of thr road that says
"15 miles to the love shack "
Love shack , yeah yeah
I'm heading down the Atlanta highway
Lookin for the love getaway
Headed for the love getaway
I got me a car, it's as big as a whale
And we headed on down to the loveshack
I got me a Chrysler, it sears about 20
So hurry up and bring your jukebox money

dayvidg Mon 31-Mar-25 17:58:36

Ventura Highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You're gonna go, I know
'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

65KL Tue 01-Apr-25 05:02:45

Give me a head of hair long beautiful hair
Shinning gleaming streaming flamenco waven
Give me down to there hair shoulder length or longer
Here baby There momma everywhere daddy daddy

Hair
Flow it show it
Long as God can grow it my hair

Grandyma Tue 01-Apr-25 10:00:35

Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Layin' soft upon my skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side
'Til the early morning light
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't care who's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
Lord, tonight, I need a friend

dayvidg Tue 01-Apr-25 14:36:27

So light the lantern above your door
And hold your curtains wide
Take the ribbon from your hair
And lay it by your side
And I ain't looking for a lie to believe
My own'll do me fine
I got the hands, pretty lady
Gonna make you grieve
And the lovin' gonna make you mine

Grandyma Tue 01-Apr-25 15:42:23

Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off the heavy one
Heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It's silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I'll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd you see me right
Throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right
