Here we go you lovely lot, Thread 11.

Post some lyrics of a song 70s, 80s, 90s (boundaries may be slightly pushed either way). State the decade & we will try to guess Artist(s) and song.

Morning!
A late 60s classic for y'all. Heard it in a rare pub visit last night.

When I'm sad she comes to me
With a thousand smiles
She gives to me free


Needtoknow That's Little Wing...Jimi Hendrix or Gil Scott Heron. Great lazy Saturday listen...

You know you're overly invested in a thread when you dream of 80s song lyrics which you just know will delight and frustrate in equal measure

And then wake up and - gutted! - can't remember what they were

@FlouncerInDenial 🤣🤣🤣

FlouncerInDenial you've got it bad 😂🤣

I might shoot to win and commit the sin
Of wanting more than I've already got

80's

With a friend
I can smile
But with a lover
I could hold my head back
I could really laugh
Really laugh

@Dragonfly3 yes, it's great isn't it. I didn't appreciate it at the time.

Said, hey old man how can you stand
To think that way
Did you really think about it
Before you made the rules?

I've got the money, I've got the place
You've got the figure, you've got the face

I can wait until your love light

Now go, go, go where you want but don't leave me here forever
You, you, you stay away so long, girl, I see you never
