I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice
Shadows of a man
A face through a window
Crying in the night
The night goes into

Do I love you?
Do I lust for you?
Am I a sinner because I do the two?
Could you let me know
Right now, please

That's making me think of Rick Astley's Forever and ever, but I know that's wrong.

Put your house up on for sale, did you get a good lawyer?
I hope you didn't catch a tan,
I hope you'll find the right man who'll fix it for ya

Oh, might be late 60's

I might be a little tispy

FlouncingBabooshka · 17/10/2020 21:13

Did anyone get Houdini by lovely, lovely Kate Bush?

FlouncingBabooshka · 17/10/2020 21:14

Did anyone get my outstanding city songs?

FlouncingBabooshka · 17/10/2020 21:15

Rather than posting more lyrics I think I’ll just tell you the artists.

One was by XTC
The other is by the Stranglers.

FlouncingBabooshka · 17/10/2020 21:25

Posting this because I heard it earlier and it’s a bloody brilliant song

You want her, you need her
And yet you don't believe her when she says her love is dead
You think she needs you
