I don't know if this has been done but will put it here!

She looks like Eve Marie Saint in On the Waterfront.

Welcome to the thread, starman. Good username.

I don't think anyone has. It's Lloyd Cole and the commotion, isn't it?

Just this one left

And all the roads jam up with credit
And there's nothing you can do
It's all just bits of paper flying away from you

Oh, this is the road to hell, Chris Rea

Honeyroar · 02/12/2021 21:28

Missed that one. The Road to Hell by Chris Rea?

Honeyroar · 02/12/2021 21:29

My phone jammed up, or I’d have been first. I think Dex did it.😡

CoffeeBeansGalore · 02/12/2021 21:32

This mountain, I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds, I see love shine
Keeps me warm as life grows colder

Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see the tears are real, I'm crying
(Yes I'm crying)
Originally 60s, decent cover 80s

I met you in a cave, you were painting buffalo
I said I'd be your slave, follow wherever you go
That night we split a rattlesnake and danced beneath the stars
You fell asleep, I stayed awake and watched the passing cars

Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares, they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

I want to talk sweet talk
Whisper things in your ear
I want to tell ya the things
I know you've been waiting to hear

Bye, bye, baby, bye, bye
Don't cry, honey, don't cry
Gonna walk out that door, but I'll soon be back for more

We spent the night in Frisco
At every kind of disco
From that night I kissed our love goodbye

It's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming
"Let me out"

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need
