Ok... chain lyrics game... kinda like the name games going on in LS.

Here's how it works... Say I quote a few lines from, say, Dancing Shoes...

When the moon comes up at night
She starts to move, she starts to move
With her dancing shoes she'll dance her blues away


and leave it at that... then the next person have to quote a few lines of another song lyrics that share some similarity... like say, Dancing Queen...

You are the Dancing Queen
young and sweet only seventeen
Dancing Queen
feel the beat from the tambourine
you can dance, you can jive
having the time of your life
see that girl, watch that scene
dig in the Dancing Queen.


Got it?.. alrighty then....
 
I'll start off with...

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.
 
I think this applies more to your first stanza, but I'll give it a try.

Now the years are rolling by me
They are rocking equally
I am older than I once was
And younger than I'll be
That's not unusual
No, it isn't strange
After changes upon changes, we are more or less the same
After changes, we are more or less the same
 
Ok... cheezy U2ness here...

We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
 
WOW let's pick it up a bit....switch it up, yo

BABY YOU'RE ALL THAT I WANT!
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it here in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in HEAVEN
 
Standing in the spotlight
I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely
I want to be a lion
Everybody wants to pass as cats
We all want to be big big stars, but we got different
reasons for that
Believe in me because I don't believe in anything
and I want to be someone to believe
Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
"She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be
somebody for me."
I want to be Bob Dylan
 
All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime
Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme
Only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall
Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all
I was thinkin' about the things that Rosie said
I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed

Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees
Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
So many things that we never will undo
I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too
 
do do do , dud duud dududu

So, so you think you can tell
heaven from hell , blues skies from pain
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail ?
A smile from a veil .

Do U Think you can tell???
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts ?
Hot Ashes for trees?
Hot air for cool breeze ? cold comfort for change ??
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war
for a lead-role in a cage ?

HOW I WISH . HOW I WISH YOU WERE HERE
WE'RE JUST
two lost souls . swimming in a fish bowl ,year after year
Running over the same old ground . What have we found?
The same old fears


WISH YOU WERE HERE

:lol:

It's just an ordinary morning
It's just an ordinary day
And I'm just an ordinary woman
slipping away
 
Mysterious Ways

She's slippy
You're sliding down
She'll be there when you
Hit the ground
It's all right
It's all right
All right
She moves in mysterious ways
 
The magical mystery tour is hoping to take you away,
Hoping to take you away.
Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour.
Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour.
 
Night falls, I'm cast beneath her spell
Daylight falls, our heaven turns to hell
Am I left to burn
And burn eternally
She's a mystery to me

She's a mystery girl
She's a mystery girl
She's a mystery girl
She's a mystery girl
 
I like this in "Pulp Fiction"

Girl, you'll be a woman soon

I love you so much, can't count all the ways
I'd die for you girl, and all they can say is
"He's not your kind"
They never get tired of puttin' me down
And I never know when I come around
What I'm gonna find
Don't let them make up your mind
Don't you know

Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon you'll need a man
 
As a man I ain't never been much for sunny days
I'm as calm as a fruit stand in New York and maybe as strange
But when the color goes out of my eyes its usually the change

But damn Sam I love a woman that rains
 
I :heart: that song, Mona

Why does it always rain on me?
Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
Why does it always rain on me?
Even when the sun is shining,
I can't ingore the lightening

Billy Bragg, yo

If I share my bed with you
Must I also share my life
Love is just a moment of giving
And marriage is when we admit our parents were right
