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)

Ice. Your only rivers run cold.
These city lights
They shine as silver gold.
Dug from the night
Your eyes as black as coal

Late to the party, but here's my contribution!

I've got your picture
Of me and you
You wrote "I love you"
I wrote "me too"
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do

BendandBreak · 30/05/2020 21:21

Yes @Devoilmum

I met you in No Man's Land, across the wire we were holding hands

I love this thread - I am revisiting so many old half forgotten favourites

She's got her head in the clouds
She's got the stars in her eyes
She's dancing with a dream in her heart
She's got the wind in her hair
Moonchild shining bright
And she's dancing, with a dream in her heart

NeedToKnow101 · 30/05/2020 22:06

No one got this yet ...

They like to wear leather jackets, chains and spikes
They wear rips and zippers all in their shirts
Real tight pants and fresh mini skirts
All kinds of colors runnin' through their hair

'And the future is certain

I know this but I can't quite remember... doing my head in..

CrepuscularCritter · 30/05/2020 22:09

Should have arrived earlier...and thanks to the poster who picked out Then Jerico's The Motive. That'll be dug out later. Adding "I've come to smell the seasons change, and watch the city as the sun goes down again."

Honeyroar · 30/05/2020 22:09

We went into town on a Tuesday night
Searching all the places that you hang around
We’re looking for you

And the future is certain

Nice easy one

The sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive
And the sparkle in your eyes
Keeps me alive, keeps me alive
