1970s

Together we can break this trap
We'll run til we drop, baby we'll never go back
Oh will you walk with me out on the wire

Donna Summer - This Time It's For Real?

I know there's something in the wake of your smile
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeah
You've built a love but that love falls apart
Your little piece of Heaven turns too dark

80s.

Iggi999 · 27/07/2020 16:20

Those will be:
Listen to your heart, Roxette
And
Angelo - TheBrotherhood of Man
Must listen to that again!

SimplySteveRedux · 27/07/2020 16:23

Correct!!

I've always wanted to use these lyrics

So we found this hotel, it was a place I knew well
We made magic that night. Oh, he did everything right
He brought the woman out of me, so many times, easily
And in the morning when he woke all I left him was a note

Very late 80s

It's about a woman who wants a baby

Running away from danger, running from every stranger Angelo

Fleamaker123 · 27/07/2020 16:25

Yes Iggi999 to Angelo

CoffeeBeansGalore · 27/07/2020 16:26

So never judge a book by its cover
Or who you gonna love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a Venus
Lord, imagine my surprise

Yes to Angelo, it's not Abba but they were very obviously trying to be like them!

Say you don't know me or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night
1980s
