Just quantum leaping in while I’m thinking! We need to drag a few unanswered ones over from the last thread!

@LouiseTrees that’s Money for nothing. Dire Straits. Love them but hate that one!

Thanks Coffee!

No-one but you and I

Take me back to the place that I know

What the hell am I doing here?
90s

Honeyroar · 07/11/2020 22:43

Creep. Radiohead.

Honeyroar · 07/11/2020 22:47

Some of my outstanding ones-

So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart.
(90s)

You make me feel so divine
Your soul and mine are entwined
Before you I was blind
(90s)

LouiseTrees · 07/11/2020 22:48

When we could be diving for pearls
80s

Honeyroar · 07/11/2020 22:49

(Unless that was a genuine question, not a lyric @LouiseTrees. Sometimes I do think that on here!)

Casting out my sweet line
With abandonment and love
No ceiling bearing down on me
Save the starry sky above

Honeyroar · 07/11/2020 22:54

I quit
I give up
Nothings good enough for anybody else
It seems

Honeyroar · 07/11/2020 22:54

(That was 80s)

When your world is full of strange arrangements
And gravity won't pull you through
You know you're missing out on something
Well that something depends on you

Morning! Thanks for the new thread @CoffeeBeansGalore

Reposted from last night...

Now
The mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes
