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.

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know

Before we drown in darkness
Say you'll never leave me now
Say you gonna love me now

Standin' at the door of the Pink Flamingo cryin' in the rain,
It was a kind of so-so love
And I'm gonna make sure it doesn't happen again,

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday

Honeyroar · 14/09/2020 21:18

That’s If you leave by OMD, I think.

Honeyroar · 14/09/2020 21:23

If you want me let me know
Baby let it show
Honey don’t you fool around

Yes it is! I've got a horrible feeling I've started reposting lyrics I've already done. I should have started a spreadsheet...
