Rogue Mermaid Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 King of Pain, the Police how about this one: You're the only one who gets through to me In the warm glow of the candle light Oh, I wonder what you're gonna do to me
Christine Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 In Your Room by The Bangles. 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...."
Rummy3 Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 I think I got it - The original by Jennifer Rush then re-released by Celine... 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
Rummy3 Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 ok - my turn... Remember these lyrics? I love you the best Better than all the rest. I love you the best Better than all the rest. That I meet in the summer.
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 "Indian Summer" Silly Doors fan Oh! And by the way I does Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
Christine Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 I think I got it - The original by Jennifer Rush then re-released by Celine... THE POWER OF LOVE Written By: G. Mende, C. DeRouge, J. Rush, M.S. Applegate 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..... 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!
Rummy3 Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 OK, how about these lyrics... And when at last I find you Your song will fill the air Sing it loud so I can hear you Make it easy to be near you For the things you do endear you to me You know I will
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 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.
Christine Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 I just love that song, Diego! So damn funny too! Meatloaf is great! :)

Rummy3 Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 OK - your turn Diego - give us some lyrics to think about~
Sheila Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 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!!!
Rogue Mermaid Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 And then you had to bring up reincarnation Over a couple of beers the other night and now I'm serving time for mistakes made by another in another lifetime
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 "When I'm sad she comes to me With a thousand smiles She gives to me, free It's alright, it's alright' she says Take anything you want from me Anything" Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
The Doctor Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 "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?
Rogue Mermaid Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 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
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 Jack yer good but not THAT good or are ye? Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
The Doctor Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 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"? Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted March 10, 2005 Posted March 10, 2005 Actually Mad Jack me own favorite version (now) is the one done by the Corrs but Stevie Ray Vaughn was loved as well. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
