80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread5

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Hello you lovely lot, thread 5 here we go!

Post a few lines from a song, 70s, 80s, 90s & let us guess the singer & the title.

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies You got there first! Well done 👍🏆

@shinynewapple2020.. yes Heartbreaker
@CrepuscularCritter.. yes Dionne Warwick

You can share that one

When I give my heart again
I know it's gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know it's gonna last forever

1970s

Yes Prosecco it was Mathew Wilder Break my Stride

@CoffeeBeansGalore yours is Baby Jane by Rod Stewart

You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone and I found out a little too late.

@Honeyroar 👍Baby Jane

I saw your face and somethin' told me, you were the one
You smiled at me and now I see: my life's begun

1980s

@Honeyroar

You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone and I found out a little too late.

Chicago. Hard habit to break

We came out of it naturally the worst
Beaten and bloody and I was sick down my shirt

Late 70s

@Honeyroar

I’ve turned a girl into a heaving senseless wreck Made the captain of a ship dance off his deck I’ve made an old man jump to his feet

(over here @singingBabooshkabadly!)

I am the beat

She smells like a cat and the neighbours she sickens

80

Yes Prosecco it’s Chicago.

And yes @BattyBettysBiccy it is the Beat but it was guessed a bit back.

80s. Not sure of the year ⬆️⬆️

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies - Squeeze, Labelled with love

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies you’re picking some rank lyrics tonight! 🥴

Three from the 90s:

She stops for a coffee she smiles at the waiter
He winks at his friends and they laugh at her later.

There's no mistake, I smell that smell
It’s that time of year again

Cause even her smile looks like a frown.
She's seen her share of devils in this angel town.

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

We came out of it naturally the worst Beaten and bloody and I was sick down my shirt

Late 70s

The Jam, Eton Rifles.

Is the first one Common People by Pulp @Singingbabooshka?

A bit more from my earlier one:

Chapter One - We didn't really get along

Chapter Two - I think I fell in love with you

You said you'd stand by me in the middle of Chapter Three

But you were up to your old tricks in Chapters Four, Five and Six

1983

@CrepuscularCritter Is that The Book of Love?

A few more lines of mine ftom upthread

And maybe you're gonna change my life around

You came to me when I was lonely and no one cared
You made me see that I was only, just runnin' scared
I saw your face and somethin' told me, you were the one
You smiled at me and now I see: my life's begun

@CrepuscularCritter that’s Every Day I Write the Book by Elvis Costello.

@xsquared - sorry, not Pulp. It does sound like it could be.

Some hard ones on here tonight!
