Is this a game you're playing?
I don't understand what's going on
I can't see through your frown, first you're up then you're down
You're keeping me from someone I want to know.
1970s

Is there a line that I could write
Sad enough to make you cry
All the lines you wrote to me were lies

The lights were groovy colours, The band was playin' slow. We danced just one dance together Then she said "I've gotta go now!" 1970s

@ProseccoBubbleFantasies

Dating I will live you endlessly Even though you're far away from me I cant forget the words I told you How it felt to love and hold you

A classic from the 80s

Well, you should all be ashamed you haven't got this one.

Some lyrics from a different part of the song....

Even though it's been so very long
The memory of our love still lingers on
I can't wait to hold and kiss you
Don't you know how much I miss you?
Darling sing for me our lovers song

I was bruised and battered
I couldn't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
Saw my reflection in a window
And didn't know my own face
1990s

To try and revive it....

Her daddy got a big aeroplane
Her mommy holds all the family cash
A beautiful blows, I stay at the corner
She is living in and out of tune

Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

@Fleamaker123 that’s the awesome Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode.

An easy one for Monday morning.

I made it through the wilderness
Somehow I made it through
Didn't know how lost I was
Until I found you
