Oh come ON now... I have a hard time believing no one here knows this one...

Touche'

Ship's Marksman & Crab Fiend

Pyrates of the Coast

"All the skill in the world goes out the window if an angel pisses in the flintlock of your musket."

"Florida points like a guiding thumb, To the southern isles of rumba and rum, To the mystery cities and haunted seas, Of the Spanish Main and the Caribbees..."

I gotsta say you kids have too much time on yer hands learnin the actual words to the entire play list on A M radio its killin me!

I did spend most of the 70's and a good share of the 80's with my ears glued to Top 40 radio. What's scary is that I remember it.

Oh come ON now... I have a hard time believing no one here knows this one...

Sorry, Capt, ye stumped me...

Old pirates, yes they rob I

Sold I to a Merchant ship..."

I agree with ye, Bess. Cap'n Morgan has come up with the hardest one yet!

I wonder if one of the most important steps on our journey is the one in which we throw away the map.

My fathers knew of wind and tide, and my blood is maritime.

I don't pretend to be captain weird.

I just do what I do.

Awww, c'mon, pirates!! Bob Marley and the Wailers "Redemption Song"...

How 'bout this one...

"I have stood here before in the pouring rain

With the world turning circles running 'round my brain

I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign"

In Your Room by The Bangles. :lol:

Here's another:

"Whispers in the morning, of lover's sleeping tight.

A rolling light thunder now, as I look in your eyes.

I hold on to your body and feel each move you make.

Your voice is warm and tender, a love that I could

not forsake...."

THE POWER OF LOVE

Written By:

G. Mende, C. DeRouge, J. Rush, M.S. Applegate

Lyrics:

The whispers in the morning

Of lovers sleeping tight

Are rolling by like thunder now

As I look in your eyes

I hold on to your body

And feel each move you make

Your voice is warm and tender

A love that I could not forsake

'Cause I am your lady

And you are my man

Whenever you reach for me

I'll do all that I can

Lost is how I'm feeling lying in your arms

When the world outside's too

Much to take

That all ends when I'm with you

Even though there may be times

It seems I'm far away

Never wonder where I am

'Cause I am always by your side

'Cause I am your lady

And you are my man

Whenever you reach for me

I'll do all that I can

We're heading for something

Somewhere I've never been

Sometimes I am frightened

But I'm ready to learn

Of the power of love

The sound of your heart beating

Made it clear

Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on

Is light years away

'Cause I am your lady

And you are my man

Whenever you reach for me

I'll do all that I can

We're heading for something

Somewhere I've never been

Sometimes I am frightened

But I'm ready to learn

Of the power of love

My favorite version of that song is sung by Michael Crawford, original Phantom of the Opera actor. I always thought it sounded better by a man anyway. Especially to hear Michael belt out, "Your are my lady and I am your man!" I just swoon at his haunting voice..... :lol:

Well, I guess I'll throw out another bunch of lyrics:

I remember every little thing

As if it happened only yesterday

Parking by the lake

And there was not another car in sight

And I never had a girl

Looking any better than you did

And all the kids at school

They were wishing they were me that night

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight

It never felt so good, it never felt so right

And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife

C'mon! Hold on tight!

C'mon! Hold on tight!

Christine lass I am a bit enamoured by your provocation of such masterfull writing? Such a passionate plea of promise and regret one of my top ten favorites even when singin along at the top o me lungs! Huzzah and grammercy

Paradise by the dashboard light

What's it going to be boy?

What's it going to be boy?

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

I couldn't take it any longer and Whoa I was crazy then a feelin came upon me like a title wave, I started prayin to my mother on my mothers grave that I would love you till the end of time. I swore I would love you till the end of time.

so now i'm praying for the end of time to hurry up and arrive cause if I gotta spend another minute with you I don't think that I would really survive I always kept my promises and never broke my vows but God only knows what I could do right now so I'm praying for the end of time......

it was long ago and it was far away and it was so much better than it is today

It never felt so right and never felt so good

.......so I can end my time with you.......

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.

Today is gonna be the day

That they're gonna throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street

That the fire in your heart is out

I'm sure you've heard it all before

But you never really had a doubt

I don't believe that anybody feels

The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I would

Like to say to you

But I don't know how.........

Sheila forever!

Green, it's not a color, it'a obsession!!!

"Little Wing" by Jimi Hendrix!

Here's one for you -

There is no pain, you are receding.

A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon.

You are only coming through in waves.

Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,

Out of the corner of my eye.

I turned to look but it was gone.

I cannot put my finger on it now.

The child is grown, the dream is gone...

Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?

I don't know Diego's but I know Mad Jack's

Comfortably Numb, Pink Floyd (my best friend's favorite song!)

Here's another:

A local boy kicked me in the butt last week

I just smiled at him and I turned the other cheek

I really don't care in fact I wish him well

Cause I'll be laughing my head off when he's burning in hell

Jack yer good but not THAT good or are ye?

That all depends, mate; were you thinking of the Hendrix version from his 1967 album "Bold as Love", or the version Sting did on the 1987 album "Nothing Like the Sun"? :rolleyes:

Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
