Which 60s song features these lyrics -

"You'll hear my voice,
'Cross the wind, 'Cross the Sand,
If you should return...." 🎡🎢🎢

Good idea but you need some rules. How about no googling and you must wait until you've been told you're correct before posting your own lyrics.

And I've got no idea what yours is!

I know the cover but not sure on the original is it but I'll guess anyway -

Is it Donovan 'Hole In My Shoe'

OP posts:
VeniVidiWeeWee · 20/03/2023 18:55

Close, but the original was by Traffic.

SiobhanSharpe · 20/03/2023 18:58

How well I remember
The look that was in his eyes
Stealing kisses from me on the sly
Makin time to make time...

SiobhanSharpe · 20/03/2023 18:59

I didn't know Donovan covered Hole in my Shoe!

SiobhanSharpe · 20/03/2023 19:05

Oops, sorry -- didn't spot one of the rules. So you have give a correct answer before you can play?

Didn't the OP agree that you to wait to told you're correct before posting New lyrics?

Otherwise it becomes a free for all.

Shouldn't I wait until mistymoon tells me I'm right? I'm pretty sure I am, but could be wrong.

@Mistymoonsinastarrysky

Can you let me know if hole in my shoe by Traffic is correct please?

@Mistymoonsinastarrysky

I'm pretty sure Traffic is correct tbh -sounds right - and I speak as someone who gave Donovan as the initial wrong answer !!

OP posts:
SiobhanSharpe · 22/03/2023 19:08

I think Traffic is right too. BTW, I'm not at all sure that Donovan covered it although Neil from the Young Ones (Nigel Planer) definitely did, in the 1980s. πŸ˜„
