Lyrics you love - a guessing game

475 replies

Anyone fancy a game? Post some lyrics you love/resonate say why you love them and other posters guess what song they're from.

Mine is "it was cold and it rained and I felt like an actor"

Whenever it's cold and rainy (I live in the North, this is often) and I'm walking down the street I often feel like I'm in a film and it makes me think of this lyric.

I hope everybody is having a good day. Mindysgotswag I am so glad someone else appreciates Morrissey so was wondering if you have ever seen this brilliant interview, love it!

And my lyric for the day:
"Now if you can stand I would like to take you by the hand, yeah
And go for a walk past people as they go to work.
Oh, let's get out of this place before they tell us that we've just died".

There is no real substitute for a ball struck squarely and firmly
Your the kind of girl who wants to open up the bottle of pop too early in the journey
Our love went flat, just like that.

The battle scars of all the good times
