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)

And yol think love is to pray but I'm sorry I don't pray that that way
Tainted love, soft cell

@MarthasGinYard - maybe something called "Feel the beat'

Don't think that is correct but it might be part of the chorus

Interested in this thread?

'Well Ive come so far down so many roads Ive experienced your pain
You know that thats a fact I can see the way you act But I learned to see what was wrong with me And I wont go back again
I know I`ve made mistakes
But I also made the break'

@AJumpedUpPantryBoy I can hear the (slightly strange) voice but can’t place it!

Oh - One Night in Bangkok, but can’t remember who!

'Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better'

It's not very easy living all alone
My friends try and tell me find a man of my own

I tried but could not bring the best of everything, too breathless then to wonder, I died a thousand times

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 30/05/2020 23:05

In my young life I have received
Callers as though they were christmas eve
Disappointed and I don't know why
She gave me laughter and hope
And a sock in the eye

MarthasGinYard · 30/05/2020 23:05

'Love that song!'
