Just thought I'd start a thread of guessing the song from the lyrics - they did it on a facebook group before and it was fun.
This isn't the easiest to start with:

"And I guess it took some time
For me to decide
If you were just my hero, or my friend?
Watching with my innocent eyes
Your silver stallion ride
Across my room I'd listen
As I cried.."
(cut to song title)

You keep me running round and round.
Well that’s alright with me.
Up and down, I’m up the wall, I’m up the bloody tree.

Before you point the finger

And hope the whole thing disappears

Remember empty words will fall

And fall upon the deafest ears

Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah..

@Sparklingbrook

So many questions still left unanswered So much I've never broken through And when I feel you near me, sometimes I see so clearly That only truth I'll never know is me and you

A boyfriend bought me this (cheesy) single as a present. He was lovely.

Don't Know Much - Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt

I used to love this song!

And when the years have done irreproble harm
I can see us walking slowly arm in arm
Just like that couple on the corner of Duke
Girl I will always be in love with you

RiftGibbon · 29/05/2020 23:42

Are you old enough?
Should you be in here watching that?

No one will get mine, and it's the most beautiful song.

@ssd totally stuck on yours, sorry :(

Your mouth, so hot

Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat

There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down

Everybody wants to rule the world, tears for tears (I love that bit of the song)

Gentlemen time please you know we can serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to stop when there's nowhere to go
