80s (or thereabouts) song lyrics thread 11

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

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.

They played Solsbury Hill on the radio tonight which made me think to find this thread again

@Iggi999.. makes me wonder what other song titles I'm blissfully unaware of 🤣

I must say I'm struggling now to think of any song lyrics that haven't already been on!

@LadyGAgain it is Piano in the Dark
By Brenda Russell
I had to check who sung it before posting

@Iggi999 I wouldn't worry whether a song has been posted before . Some have come up 3 or 4 times . One was posted twice in half an hour a few days back🤣🤣

I still have two outstanding . . .

I need to be the one that's by your side
You're the beat in my heart
My love for you is something I can't hide
1983

All police and detectives are furious
'cause they can't find the source of this lethally evil force.
This is serious so give me a quarter.
I was a witness. Get me a reporter.
1990

Your eyes have died
But you see more than I

70's

Coffee, is that Snap, the Power??

@Iggi999 don’t worry about posting the same songs again. We’ve all done it many times! It’s amazing how posting a different line makes it more/less difficult.

@Fleamaker123 No, sorry

Is it the Ninja turtles

ok then here goes..

Tearing me apart like a new emotion

Here come the rain

Comes

@MarthasGinYard Well done! It was from the film! Turtle Power by Partners in Kryme

That's it, Here comes the rain again (Eurythmics).
I thought the turtle guess was a joke!

@Iggi999 That's what happens when I try & find something different to post 😄

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do

89

Or you can tell my lips
To tell my fingertips
They won't be reaching out for you no more

92

Eeeek. Unfortunately I happen to know the second one is Achy-Breaky Heart (sp???)

And is the first one wicked game? Chris Isaaks???

Hi All

Missed you guys! Been a funny old week. Nothing bad, just busy and not in the right head space.

Sorry to hear you've still got troubles, FlouncingB. Hope things start getting back on a more even keel soon.

Nice to see Martha back on the thread. It's been a while. (I was on thread 1 with you, but I've got a new name now)

To make up for the time I've lost, I've prepared a load of the easiest, easiest song lyrics.
Whichever lucky poster happens upon them first, you'll get the lot and feel oh-so-proud. But it's a hollow victory, because they're all super, super easy. (and should you fail to get one, you'll have to leave this thread, if not MN in disgrace).
The rest of you, chancing across these later in the day, will only be able to howl in outrage at your screens at the unfairness of missing out on these easy, easy lyrics.

Have fun.

They're all 80s

They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light (that's right)
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right

You try to scream
But terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze
As horror looks you right between the eyes
You're paralysed
