Anyone still want to play?
Try and guess the 80s song from the lyrics

From the last thread @fleamaker posted

Call up, ring once, hang up the phone
To let me know you made it home

I guessed Stevie Wonder, Part Time Lover.

One of my outstanding lyrics -
And when the sun shines in your eyes
You just turn your head away, to me.

And a more mainstream one -

I know what you’re thinking
I’ll tell you something
I know what you’re thinking

Ooh goody, yes I'm in. The mainstream one is Rio by Duran Duran. I don't recognise the others though. And I need to find my outstanding one from the previous thread.

Honeyroar · 07/06/2020 22:16

It is Rio.

Now the mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine

No show Wednesday girl waits with the wine
She knows just what to say

We close our eyes - go west!

I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it better this way

Easy one!

lilgreen · 07/06/2020 22:54

“But then you let me down, when I look around, baby you just can’t be found.”

CoffeeBeansGalore · 07/06/2020 23:01

I've been taking on a new direction
But I have to say
I've been thinking about my own protection
It scares me to feel this way

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 07/06/2020 23:03
