And though he never would wave goodbye
You could see it written in his eyes
As the train pulled out of sight
Bye-bye

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 04/06/2020 17:41

Ooh, if that’s what I think it is it’s late 90s isn’t it Binky? (I might have the wrong song of course)

wowfudge · 04/06/2020 17:48

This is DEFINITELY 80s.

And if dreams were wings, you know
I would have flown to you.

Helpful hint: this song is not about personal female products

What counts is that the rhymes
Designed to fill your mind

I think that one is hard. Excellent song, though

Oh no you don’t fool me
