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)

Play the game you know you can't quit until it's won
Soldier on only you can do what must be done

Try this:

If I was to tell you how I feel
That my love was silent that my heart was real
I've been looking at you you've been looking at me
And I want you to know that I like what I see

BubblegumFactory · 31/05/2020 00:15

Yes and yes!

shinynewapple2020 · 31/05/2020 00:15

Don't think anyone got mine from earlier -

Say you'll never leave me now
Say you're gonna love me now

(Sorry I don't know how to do the quotes thing)

It's another cheesy one Smile

BendandBreak · 31/05/2020 00:17

Dollar, Mirror Mirror. It was the ‘ive Been looking at you, you’ve been looking at me’ that got me to that one.

Literally NOONE in my RL thinks that! "Terrible " is what I'm usually told
Iggi999 · 31/05/2020 00:21

It was indeed Dollar Mirror Mirror.
I think we should turn this thread into a Spotify play list Grin

Over there is the picture we took when I made her my bride
Over there is the chair where I held her whenever she cried
Over there by the window the flowers she left
Have all died

If Proseeco gets this one I’m starting to think we were in university together Grin

BubblegumFactory · 31/05/2020 00:22

Last one from me before bed

40 shades of green yeah
60 shades of red,
Heroes going cheap these days
Price, a bullet in the head

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 31/05/2020 00:23

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies - my friends and family all deplore my musical tastes.

Partly as they are stuck pretty much in the eighties and partly because they say o chose the worst stuff from that era

Just woke up... no-one got this...

She's my twilight zone, my Al Capone
She's my rolling stones and my Ava Perone'
