Put up a line or two from an 80s song for people to guess.

'As I watch you move, across the moonlit room There's so much tenderness in your loving Tomorrow I must leave, the dawn knows no reprieve God give me strength when I am leaving'

What did I see?
Can I believe
that what I saw That night was real and not just fantasy?

'I'm all out of hope One more bad dream could bring a fall When I'm far from home Don't call me on the phone To tell me you're alone It's easy to deceive It's easy to tease But hard to get release'

I sent for juice
You give me poison
I order a line
You form a queue
Try something hard
There's nothing else you can do

silk or leather or a feather
respect yourself and all of those around you

I have something REALLY funny (to me) (it's not that funny) to share with you all once one of you gets this one
(P.s. prepare to be underwhelmed... it isn't particularly funny or interesting)
