Yes, you belong to me
And I'm yours exclusively
Right now we live and breathe each other

Can I take this for granted
With your eyes over me?
In this place
This wintery home
I know there's always someone in

80s ( and was in a film...)

Gah! Narrows eyes at Honey

Honeyroar · 18/07/2020 10:23

I definitely typed more words Prosecco!

ThatLibraryMiss · 18/07/2020 10:26

Honey and Prosecco, you're fast (and correct) this morning! Try this late-60s song, and bonus points for the connection with Sylvia.

Playing silly games
Kicking and splashing
While the rain was pouring

Fleamaker123 · 18/07/2020 10:37

Correct Prosecco.
Not getting any of these this morning Confused

NeedToKnow101 · 18/07/2020 10:41

Oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter
And so sweet, oh

Early 70s

@Honeyroar

One liner from the 80s

The front of your dress all shadowy lined

The chauffeur Duran Duran. Might have already been guessed!
SingingBabooshkaBadly · 18/07/2020 10:47

Well done @CoffeeBeansGalore and @ProseccoBubbleFantasies - yes to Benny and the Jets and Burning Down the House.

I did miss that yesterday - I was so behind on the thread I skimmed it to see the outstanding ones and missed it - it’s Under the Ivy isn’t it?

You had me very confused when you quoted Rock the Boat Grin

Fleamaker123 · 18/07/2020 10:50

All I want to tell you is now you'll never ever have to compromise

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/07/2020 11:01

😂😂😂

You did Star

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/07/2020 11:04

Yes, Babooshka. I live that song. Sorry for the rock the boat confusion!

ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/07/2020 11:04

Love. Blush

That isn't china in your hands is it?????
ProseccoBubbleFantasies · 18/07/2020 11:08

No. It isn't ⬆️⬆️⬆️
That's definitely wrong.

Not sure what it is though

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 18/07/2020 11:23

It’s a beautiful song @ProseccoBubbleFantasies

One from the 80s:

She says she's got no time for winter nights
She doesn't notice as the days grow colder

Destinysdaughter · 18/07/2020 11:53

Needtoknow that's A case of you, Joni Mitchell. I also love this version by James Blake

Honeyroar · 18/07/2020 12:08

@Iggi999 it was The Chauffeur. Don’t think anyone had guessed it.

Honeyroar · 18/07/2020 12:12

So buy me beer and whiskey cos I’m going far away.
(80s, I think!)
