Thin Lizzy - Emerald Down from the glen came the marching men With their shields and their swords To fight the fight they believed to be right Overthrow the overlords To the town where there was plenty They brought plunder, swords and flame When they left the town was empty Children would never play again From their graves I heard the fallen Above the battle cry By that bridge near the border There were many more to die Then onward over the mountain And outward towards the sea They had come to claim the Emerald Without it they could not leave |

Dire Straits - Tunnel of Love Getting crazy on the waltzers but it's the life that I choose Sing about the sixblade sing about the switchback and a torture tattoo And I been riding on a ghost train where the cars they scream and slam And I don't know where I'll be tonight but I'd always tell you where I am In a screaming ring of faces I seen her standing in the light She had a ticket for the races just like me she was a victim of the night I put a hand upon the lever said let it rock and let it roll I had the one arm bandit fever there was an arrow through my heart and my soul And the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above And I'm just high on the world Come on and take a low ride with me girl On the tunnel of love It's just the danger when you're riding at your own risk She said you are the perfect stranger she said baby let's keep it like this It's just a cake walk twisting baby step right up and say Hey mister give me two give me two cos any two can play And the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above And I'm just high on the world Come on and take a low ride with me girl On the tunnel of love Well it's been money for muscle another whirligig Money for muscle and another girl I dig Another hustle just to make it big And rockaway rockaway And girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did Like the spanish city to me when we were kids Oh girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did Like the spanish city to me when we were kids She took off a silver locket she said remember me by this She put her hand in my pocket I got a keepsake and a kiss And in the roar of the dust and diesel I stood and watched her walk away I could have caught up with her easy enough but something must have made me stay And the big wheel keep on turning neon burning up above And I'm just high on the world Come on and take a low ride with me girl On the tunnel of love And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades In any shooting gallery where promises are made To rockaway rockaway from cullercoats and whitley bay out to rockaway And girl it looks so pretty to me like it always did Like the spanish city to me when we were kids Girl it looks so pretty to me like it always did Like the spanish city to me when we were kids |

Hot Chocolate - Emma We were together since we were far She was so pretty, Emma was a star in everyone's eyes And when she said she'd be a movie queen, nobody left A face like an angel, she could be anything Emmaline, Emma Emmaline, I'gonna write your name high on that silver screen Emmaline, Emma Emmaline, I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world had ever seen At seventeen, we were wedded And work day and night to earn our daily bread And every day Emma would go out searchin' for that place That never, ever came away You know, sometimes she come home so depressed, I hear her cry in the bedroom, fellin' so distressed An'I remember back when she was far To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive It was... Emmaline, Emma, Emmaline I'gonna write your name high on that silver screen Emmaline, Emma Emmaline, I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world had ever seen It was cold an'dark in the summer night When I opened up the bedroom door To find her lain still and cold upon the bed A love letter lain on the bedroom floor It read: "Darling, I love you, But I just keep on living on dreams anymore, I tried so very hard not to leave you alone... I just can't keep on trying no more" |

Cat Stevens -Father and Son It's not time to make a change Just relax, take it easy You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to know Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy To be calm when you've found something going on But take your time, think a lot Why, think of everything you've got For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again It's always been the same, same old story From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go It's not time to make a change Just sit down, take it slowly You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to go through Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go |

Marianne Faithfull -- The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan The morning sun touched lightly on The eyes of Lucy Jordan In a white suburban bedroom In a white suburban town And she lay there 'neath the covers Dreaming of a thousand lovers 'Til the world turned to orange And the room went spinning round At the age of thirty seven She realized she'd never ride Through Paris in a sports car With the warm wind in her hair So she let the phone keep ringing And she sat there softly singing Little nursery rhymes she'd memorized In her Daddy's easy chair Her husband, he's off to work And the kids are off to school And there were oh so many ways For her to spend her days She could clean the house for hours Or rearrange the flowers Or run naked through the shady street Screaming all the way At the age of thirty seven She realized she'd never ride Through Paris in a sports car With the warm wind in her hair So she let the phone keep ringing As she sat there softly singing Pretty nursery rhymes she'd memorized In her Daddy's easy chair The evening sun touched gently on The eyes of Lucy Jordan On the rooftop where she climbed When all the laughter grew too loud And she bowed and curtsied to the man Who reached and offered her his hand And he led her down to the long white car that waited past the crowd At the age of thirty seven She knew she'd found forever As she rode along through Paris With the warm wind in her hair |

Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life Somewhere after midnight In my wildest fantasy Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I would swear that there's someone somewhere Watching me Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the flood I can feel his approach Like the fire in my blood I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night He's gotta be strong And he's gotta be fast And he's gotta be fresh from the fight I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light He's gotta be sure And it's gotta be soon And he's gotta be larger than life |

Try to see it my way, Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on? While you see it your way, Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone We can work it out, We can work it out Think of what you're saying You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright Think of what I'm saying, We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night We can work it out, We can work it out 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 may fall apart before too long We can work it out, We can work it out 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 may fall apart before too long We can work it out, We can work it out |

The Human League - Don't You Want Me You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, when I met you. I picked you out, I shook you up And turned you around, turned you into someone new. Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet. Success has been so easy for you. But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now, And I can put you back there too. Don't, don't you want me? You know I can't believe it When I hear that you won't see me. Don't, don't you want me? You know I don't believe you When you say that you don't need me. It's much to late to find When you think you've changed your mind. You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry. Don't you want me, baby? Don't you want me, oh? Don't you want me, baby? Don't you want me, oh? I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, That much is true. But even then I knew I'd find a much better place Either with or without you. The five years we have had have been such good times, I still love you. But now I think it's time I live my life on my own. I guess it's just what I must do. Don't, don't you want me? You know I can't believe it When I hear that you won't see me. Don't, don't you want me? You know I don't believe you When you say that you don't need me. It's much too late to find When you think you've changed your mind. You'd better change it back or we will both be sorry. Don't you want me, baby? Don't you want me, oh? Don't you want me, baby?

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain. Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here. |

Al Stewart - The Year Of The Cat On a morning from a Bogart movie In a country where they turn back time You go strolling through the crowd like Peter Lorre Contemplating a crime She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running Like a watercolor in the rain Don't bother asking for explanations She'll just tell you that she came In the year of the cat She doesn't give you time for questions As she locks up your arm in hers And you follow till your sense of which direction Completely disappears By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls There's a hidden door she leads you to These days, she says, "I feel my life Just like a river running through" The year of the cat Why she looks at you so coolly? And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea She comes in incense and patchouli So you take her, to find what's waiting inside The year of the cat Well morning comes and you're still with her And the bus and the tourists are gone And you've thrown away your choice you've lost your ticket So you have to stay on But the drumbeat strains of the night remain In the rhythm of the new-born day You know sometime you're bound to leave her But for now you're going to stay In the year of the cat Year of the cat |

Fox on the run. She walked through the corn leading down to the river. Her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun. She took all the love that a poor boy could give her And left me to die like the fox on the run. Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run. Everybody knows the reason for the fall When woman tempted man down in paradise's hall. This woman tempted me all right, then took me for a ride But like the lonely fox I need a place to hide. Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run. Come take a glass of wine and fortify your soul. We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know. I'll illustrate, a girl put me on the floor. The game is nearly up, the hounds are at my door. Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run.

Mary Hopkin - Those Were The Days Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours And dreamed of all the great things we would do Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la, Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Then the busy years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern We'd smile at one another and we'd say Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la, Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely woman really me Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la, Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friend we're older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way.

All the lonely people Where do they all belong? Father McKenzie, writing the words Of a sermon that no one will hear No one comes near Look at him working, darning his socks In the night when there's nobody there What does he care All the lonely people Where do they all come from? All the lonely people Where do they all belong? Ah look at all the lonely people Ah look at all the lonely people Eleanor Rigby, died in the church And was buried along with her name Nobody came Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt From his hands as he walks from the grave No one was saved All the lonely people Where do they all come from?

Cream - White Room In the white room with black curtains near the station. Black-roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings. Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes. Dawn-light smiles on you leaving, my contentment. I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines; Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves. You said no strings could secure you at the station. Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows. I walked into such a sad time at the station. As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning. I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back; Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves. At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd. Consolation for the old wound now forgotten. Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes. She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings. I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd; Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves. |

nazareth - love hurts Love hurts, love scars, love wounds And marks, any heart Not tough or strong enough To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain Love is like a cloud Holds a lot of rain Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts I'm young, I know, but even so I know a thing or two And I learned from you I really learned a lot, really learned a lot Love is like a flame It burns you when it's hot Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts Some fools think of happiness Blissfulness, togetherness Some fools fool themselves I guess They're not foolin' me I know it isn't true, I know it isn't true Love is just a lie Made to make you blue Love hurts......ooh, ooh love hurts ooh, ooh love hurts |

Love this old Pink Floyd
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkMUjhF8snU Last night I had too much to drink Sitting in a club with so many fools Playing to rules Trying to impress but feeling rather empty I had another drink Drink, a, drink, a, drink, a, drink What a way to spend that evening They all turn up with their friends Playing the game But in the scene I should have been Far away Away, away, away, away, away Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before I open the door to an empty room Then I forget The telephone rings and someone speaks She would very much like to go out to a show So what can I do, I can't think what to say She sees through anyway Away, away, away, away, away Out of the front door I go Traffic's moving rather slow Arriving late, there she waits Looking very angry, as cross as she can be Be, a, be, a, be, a, be, a, be Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before I open the door to an empty room Then I forget |

I was standing by the Nile When I saw the lady smile I would take her out for a while For a while Oh, my tears wept like a child How her golden hair was blowing wild Then she spread her wings to fly For to fly Soaring high above the breezes Going always where she pleases She will make it to the islands in the sun I will follow in her shadow As I watch her from my window One day I will catch her eye She is calling from the deep Summoning my soul to endless sleep She is bound to drag me down Drag me down |

There's a lyric in here that was written for me :)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXUa_oWiE6Q Would you like to say something before you leave Perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel We said good-bye before we said hello I hardly even like you, I shouldn't care at all We met just six hours ago, the music was too loud From your bed I gained a day and lost a bloody year And I would like to know How do you feel, how do you feel, how do you feel? Not a single word was said, delights still without fears Occasionally you showed a smile but what was the need I felt the cold far too soon - the wind of '95 My friends are lying in the sun, I wish that I was there Tomorrow brings another town and another girl like you Have you time before you leave to greet another man Just you let me know How do you feel, how do you feel, how do you feel? Good-bye to you Charlotte Kringles too I've had enough for one day |

Post by Cofgod on Jul 3rd, 2020 at 5:07am The Stranglers - "Golden Brown" (1982) This classic, surely one of the greatest pop songs ever made, is about heroin. Rhythmically, it is pretty much unique. It is in compound time and mixes asymmetrical bars with symmetrical bars. Just don't ask me to explain what that means...
