1:
Loves strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on

2;
I'll forget for you
Forget those eyes forget those lies

3:
You can forget all your troubles
Forget all your cares

4;
But don't forget who's taking you home tonight
And in whose arms your gonna be

5;
I'll forgive a d forget
If you say you'll never go

6: Deborah anabel too
I forget your name

midgemagneto · 05/07/2021 18:44

shinynewapple21 · 05/07/2021 18:51

I think save the last dance artist is the drifters

midgemagneto · 05/07/2021 18:53

It is shiny !

RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat · 05/07/2021 19:05

Correct with the fugees FlouncingB!

Of course! The drifters. My dad would be so disappointed in me. 😔

Fleamaker123 · 05/07/2021 20:48

Michael Buble did a version of Save the last dance too... does that man have no songs of his own 🤔

RogueMnerHidesUnderABigHat · 05/07/2021 21:29

He's not my idea of music, flea shudders

Fleamaker123 · 05/07/2021 23:21

Nor mine Rogue 😬

midgemagneto · 09/07/2021 18:12

Guess the year

1: happened so naturally
I did not know it was love

2:so I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength

3: I bless the light that lights on you believe me

4: said woman take it slow and things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little ......

5: we caressed your cheek
Oh stars wrapped in your hair
Oh a life without a care

6: I had to escape the city was sticky snd cruel
Maybe I should have called first

7: don't go for second best baby
Put your love to the test
