Barbra:
Shadows falling , baby , we stand alone
Out on the street anybody you meet got a heartache of their own
(it oughta be illegal)
Make it a crime to be lonely or sad
(it oughta be illegal)
You got a reason for livin
You battle on with the love youre livin on
You gotta be mine
We take it away
Its gotta be night and say
Just a matter of time
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb any mountain near or far , we are
And we never let it end
We are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
Our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got a highway to the sky
I dont wanna hear your goodbye
Oh!
Barry:
Aaah!
Pulses racing , darling
How grand we are
Little by little we meet in the middle
Theres danger in the dark
(it oughta be illegal)
Make it a crime to be out in the cold
(it oughta be illegal)
You got a reason for livin
You battle on with the love youre buildin on
Both:
You gotta be mine
We take it away
Its gotta be night and day
Just a matter of time
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb and mountain near or far , we are
And we never let it end
We are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
Our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got a highway to the sky
Barbra:
I dont wanna hear your goodbye

Barry:
Dont wanna hear your goodbye

Both
I dont wanna hear your
And we got nothing to be guilty of
Our love will climb and mountain near or far , we are
And we never let it end
We are devotion
And we got nothing to be sorry for
Our love is one in a million
Eyes can see that we got a highway to the sky
Dont wanna hear your goodbye
Dont wanna hear your
And we got nothing to be guilty of...

I do like a good wind up .................................. don't you ?

Evening folks, here's my first one for tonight.

She climbs a tree and scrapes her knee
Her dress has got a tear
She waltzes on her way to Mass
And whistles on the stair
And underneath her wimple
She has curlers in her hair
I even heard her singing in the abbey

She's always late for chapel
But her penitence is real
She's always late for everything
Except for every meal
I hate to have to say it
But I very firmly feel
Maria's not an asset to the abbey

I'd like to say a word in her behalf
Maria makes me laugh

How do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find a word that means Maria?
A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown!

Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
Many a thing she ought to understand
But how do you make her stay
And listen to all you say
How do you keep a wave upon the sand

Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?

When I'm with her I'm confused
Out of focus and bemused
And I never know exactly where I am
Unpredictable as weather
She's as flighty as a feather
She's a darling! She's a demon! She's a lamb!

She'd outpester any pest
Drive a hornet from its nest
She could throw a whirling dervish out of whirl
She is gentle! She is wild!
She's a riddle! She's a child!
She's a headache! She's an angel!
She's a girl!

How do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find a word that means Maria?
A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown!

Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
Many a thing she ought to understand
But how do you make her stay
And listen to all you say
How do you keep a wave upon the sand

Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?

Muffy, did you show your kids those clips from the other night? What did they think of them?

A MODERN CLASSIC
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA91kUzHQaU

Time can never mend the careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
there's no comfort in the truth
pain is all you'll find

Should've known better

I feel so unsure
as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
as the music dies, something in your eyes
calls to mind the silver screen
and all its sad good-byes

I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Time can never mend
the careless whispers of a good friend
to the heart and mind
ignorance is kind
there's no comfort in the truth
pain is all you'll find

I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste this chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Never without your love

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say

We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But noone's gonna dance with me
Please stay

And I'm never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool

Should've known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I'm never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) What I did's so wrong
that you had to leave me alone

Hi Helen

I showed them tonight as they are allowed up a tad later on a Friday........tbh.....they looked a bit bewildered.....pmsl.........youngest asked if I could put take that on!!!!!!! philastines !!!!!!! xx

I LOVE SIMPLY RED.


When a man just can’t be trusted
And again he’s gone and lost it

Your call has been registered
It’ll be returned when I get back home
I’ve been out loving all night long
I can’t help it, that love it makes me strong

When a man just can’t be trusted
And again he’s gone and lost it

Ask me all the questions you need
I don’t tell lies, my conscience don’t bleed
You’ll get all the time I can give
As long as you respect my freedom to live

When a man just can’t be trusted
And again he’s gone and lost it

I just can’t be trusted

A kick in the ribs for the arrival late at night
So late in the evening you could see the morning light
When you’re sat up alone and you wonder where I’ve been
You can pick up my belongings and tell me where I can take them

When a man just can’t be trusted
And again he’s gone and lost it

I just can’t be trusted

Infidelity

Not strictly 80s but he's the king so...........who cares lol........still a classic imho

The way she walks,
The way she talks
How long can I pretend
Oh I cant help Im in love
With the girl of my best friend

Her lovely hair,
Her skin so fair
I could go on and never end
Oh, I cant help Im in love
With the girl of my best friend

I want to tell her
How I love her so
And hold her in my arms, but then
What if she got real mad and told him so
I could never face either one again

The way they kiss
Their happiness
Will my ache-in ever end
Or will I always be in love
With the girl of my best friend?

Never end,
Will it ever end?
Please let it end

Sometimes When We Touch - Dan Hill

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning to see the real you

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly

At times I understand you
And I know how hard you've tried
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by

At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

This has the PHOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROAH factor for me cos he looks like my hubby BUT the song stands the test of time

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrFrNnxuIYc


She say's her love for me would never die
But that'd change if she ever finds out about you and I
oh - but her love is cold
It wouldn't hurt her if she didn't know cause...
When it gets to much - I need to feel your touch

I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna run to you
cause when the feelin's right I'm gonna run all night
I'm gonna run to you

She's gotta heart if gold she'd never let me down
But you're the one that turns me on
You keep me comin' round
I know her love is true
But it's so damn easy makin' love to you
I got my mind made up - I need to feel your touch

Love this one of their newer stuff.

You light the skies, up above me
A star, so bright, you blind me, yeah
Don’t close your eyes
Don’t fade away, don’t fade away-

Oh

Yeah you and me we can ride on a star
If you stay with me girl
We can rule the world-
Yeah you and me we can light up the sky
If you stay by my side
We can rule the world-

If walls break down, I will comfort you
If angels cry, oh I’ll be there for you
You've saved my soul
Don’t leave me now, don’t leave me now

Oh

Yeah you and me we can ride on a star
If you stay with me girl
We can rule the world
Yeah you and me, we can light up the sky
If you stay by my side
We can rule the world-

Ooooooooh
All the stars are coming out tonight
They're lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you
All the stars are coming out tonight
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you-

Ooooooooh

Yeah you and me we can ride on a star
If you stay with me girl
We can rule the world
Yeah you and me, we can light up the sky
If you stay by my side
We can rule the world

All the stars are coming out tonight (oooooooh)
They’re lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you-
All the stars are coming out tonight
They're lighting up the sky tonight
For you,for you-

All the stars, are coming out tonight
They're lighting up the sky tonight
For you, for you-
All the stars, are coming out tonight
They're lighting up the sky tonight
For you,for you-

My niece had this when she was walking down the aisle when she got married last November.

Awww that's a lovely song Jean. I'd def class that as a classic xx

This is the one that gets the hairs standing on the back of my neck.
Unfortuneatley my hubby isn't like him, he's more like Ross Kemp. Muffy your hubby must be a looker then if he looks like Bryan then.

Well

you can tell everyone I'm a down disgrace



Drag my name all over the place - I don't care anymore.

You can tell everybody 'bout the state I'm in



You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win -

I don't care anymore

I don't care anymore



I don't care what you say

I don't play the same games you play.

'cos I've been talking to the people that you call all your friends

And it seems to me there's a means to an end - they don't care anymore.

And as for me I can sit here and bide my time



I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind -

I don't care anymore

I don't care no more



I don't care what you say - we never played by the same rules anyway.

I won't be there anymore

get out of my way - let me by



I got better things to do with my time



I don't care anymore

I don't care anymore



I don't care anymore

I don't care anymore.



Well

I don't care now what you say

'cos everyday I'm feeling fine with myself.

And I don't care now what you say

hey -

I'll do alright by myself 'cos I know.



'cos I remember all the times I tried so hard

And you laughed in my face 'cos you held all the cards -

I don't care anymore.

And I really ain't bothered what you think of me

'cos all I want of you is just a let me be -

I don't care anymore

d'you hear I don't care no more



I don't care what you say - I never did believe you much anyway

I won't be there no more

so get out of my way - let me by



I got better things to do with my time

I don't care anymore.

D'you hear I don't care anymore

I don't care no more.

You listening I don't care no more

no more.

You know I don't care anymore

don't care no more

no more

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

(instrumental)

Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure.
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

I'm going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make you mine
It is written in the stars above
The gods decree
You'll be right here by my side
Right next to me
You can run but you cannot hide

Don't say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without me
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good

I'll be fine
I'll be waiting patiently
Till you see the signs
And come running to my open arms
When will you realize
Do we have to wait 'till our worlds collide
Open up your eyes
You can't turn back the tide

Don't say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without me
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good

I'm going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make you mine
It is written in the stars above

Don't say you want me
Don't say you need me
Don't say you love me
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without me
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good

Depeche Mode have always been underated imho :0)
