If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you

Morning all

I walk down the sidewalk
Run down the boardwalk
Stop and make small talk
But I can't say no

So if we’re left alone tonight
Don’t ask me to hold you tight

I just get more attached to you
When you hold me in your arms
And squeeze me
And you leave me, making me blue

Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man mad

Locomotion, OMD

Morning all! Got this as a lovely ear-worm this morning..

Sneaking out the back door to hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine
70s

CoffeeBeansGalore · 12/05/2021 09:14

Morning!

Are you casting aspertions upon our reputations @NeedToKnow101? 😄

OP posts:
WhipperSnapperSteve · 12/05/2021 12:10

Both correct, Steve. I thought you and needtoknow might both know soul II soul, but I didn't do a call out to you cos I know you often have RL stuff to deal with.

I do, and it's often the impact on my mental health that I cannot deal with. The physical stuff is bad enough but it's the mental side I struggle with, and then there's DP.

Yet these threads provide me more joy and solace than you'll ever know, so feel free to name call me so I can hoover up points Grin

Interesting one below, the name often gets confused. It's 90s rock, have fun!

"I'm torn in pieces
I'm blind and waiting for
My heart is reeling
I'm blind and waiting for you"
