Lyrical Response

[ExiledInIllinois]

Now those memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something worse...

[PastaJoe]

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine

Quiet thoughts come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories
Sweet memories

[Bill from NYC]

Leo and my name is Paul
You see, I like all women of the world
And if you understand what I'm sayin'
I want you to

 

Take my hand
Come with me, baby, to Love Land
Let me show you how sweet it could be
Sharing love with me, I want you to

 

Float, float on (so float with me, baby)
Float on, float on

[Joe Ferguson forever]

I'm broke, but I'm happy
I'm poor, but I'm kind
I'm short, but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high, but I'm grounded
I'm sane, but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost, but I'm hopeful, baby

[Chorus 1]
And what it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is givin' a high five

[muppy]

I'm a B word, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your Hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

[WhoTom]

Jesus just left Chicago

And he's bound for New Orleans.
Well now, Jesus just left Chicago

And he's bound for New Orleans.
Workin' from one end to the other

And all points in between.

[PastaJoe]

I don't care what they may know
I don't care where they may go
I don't care what they may know
Jesus is just alright, oh yeah

[Bill from NYC]

I don't mind when you say, that you're going away
I just don't wanna be lonely
I don't care if we share, only moments a day
I just don't wanna be lonely

 

I'd rather be loved, needed
Depended on to give the love I can't get
When you're gone
When you're gone
I just don't wanna be lonely

[Joe Ferguson forever]

But all I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over
Santa Monica Boulevard

Otherwise the bar is ours
The day and the night
And the car wash, too
The matches and the Bud's
And the clean and dirty cars
The sun and the moon

[WhoTom]

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one

[PastaJoe]

Here we lie all alone am I dreaming?
Your heart's smooth my soul is unbelieving
Now you see the me and I'm feeling, I'm feeling
I feel your hands, your lips, the heat of your body
Whisper your love to me say that you love me
Please just love me down and never leave me,
I'm a dreamer

[muppy]

Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of me too

'Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
'Til tomorrow
I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
Dreaming about you and me

[Figster]

Oh great moon, great moon above

Please send this message to my darling dove

Reminding her of my undying love, 

 Hear my plea and send this message for me,

 

Note: This was lyrics from a song my late Dad wrote when he was over seas fighting in the Korean War

[muppy]

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh
Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, o

 

I'll send an S.O.S to the world
I'll send an S.O.S to the world
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
Message in a bottle, yeah

Message in a bottle, yeah

[WhoTom]

Five to one, baby
One in five
No one here gets

Out alive, now
You get yours, baby
I'll get mine
Gonna make it, baby
If we try

[muppy]

Step right up and don't be shy

Because you will not believe your eyes

She's right here behind the glass

And you're gonna like her

'Cause she's got class

 

You can look inside another world

You get to talk to a pretty girl

She's everything you dream about

But don't fall in love 

She's a beauty

She's one in a million girls

She's a beauty

Why would I lie?

Why would I lie?

[Joe Ferguson forever]

 

Pretty woman, walkin' down the street
Pretty woman the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman I don't believe you, you're not the truth
No one could look as good as you, mercy

Pretty woman won't you pardon me
Pretty woman I couldn't help but see
Pretty woman that you look lovely as can be
Are you lonely just like me

[WhoTom]

The next thing I remember
I am walking down the street
I'm feeling all right
I'm with my boys, I'm with my troops, yeah

[Bill from NYC]

That night we fell in love
Beneath the stars above
That was a lovely summer night
Remember then, then
Then, then, then

 

Remember
Re-mem-mem
Re-mem-mem-mem-ber
Re-mem-mem
Re-mem-mem-mem-ber
Re-mem-mem
Re-mem-mem-mem-ber
Then, then, remember then

[OGTEleven]

Now a year has passed and things have changed
Your spirit's returned from whence it came
Still the ocean sounds the same
And the trees whisper your name

And they whisper words you once said to me
"We have time, love, life is long"
So now I walk this path of memories
Reach for your spirit and join you in song

Life is long, love, life is long
Life is long, love, life is long
We have time, love, we have time
Life is long, love, life is long
