@Honeyroar

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

😂😂 I actually thought that was a suggestion so we could commit further to this game Blush

You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies

Something in the moonlight catches my eye
The shadow of a lover goes dancing by

Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own

Woke up this morning closed in on all sides
Nothing doing
I feel resistance as I open my eyes

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

  1. Pride's like a knife, it can cut deep inside
Words are like weapons, they wound sometimes
  1. Spinning on that dizzy edge
Kissed her face and kissed her head Dreamed of all the different ways, I had to make her glow Why are you so far away she said Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?
  1. You're old enough some people say
To read the signs and walk away It's only time that heals the pain And makes the sun come out again

All 80s
