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)

What a great thread - I've been singing so many of these lyrics out loud.

The truth can't hurt you it's just like the dark
It scares you witless
But in time you see things clear and stark

Iggi999 · 30/05/2020 17:19

Tall, blonde, dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

MarthasGinYard · 30/05/2020 17:20

'Time goes by so fast
You've got to have a dream
To just hold on
All my dreams of love began
With the reality of
You and I believe
That all our dreams will last forever'

Is that It's Raining Men???

Iggi999 · 30/05/2020 17:24

The truth can't hurt you one is driving me nuts..

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 30/05/2020 17:25

BendandBreak borderline?

Dunno. They're all shite. (Apologies if you're a massive fan)

Iggi999 · 30/05/2020 17:26

Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change?
Things'll go your way

'Well, you didn't wake up this morning, cause you didn't go to bed,
You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red.

BendandBreak · 30/05/2020 17:27

It seems like weeks since you looked at me baby, without that look of distaste

TitsInAbsentia · 30/05/2020 17:27
