The other day, I posted something in another thread where I asked members what was the first word that popped into their head when they saw/heard the word "cheap"?
My first response was from
Whoknows and his reply was "perfume". That phrase, cheap perfume, made me instantly think of Journey's DON'T STOP BELIEVING. The post went in a different direction from what I planned but it was so much fun! Example, there were other responses to the word "cheap" that included shoddy, floozy and several more and
huxley999 was able to cite songs with those words in them!
Let's pick a RANDOM word and see if a song comes to mind. My guess is not every word will trigger a song to pop into our heads, but who knows. If you would kindly post a few lines of the song that reflects "the word", the name of the song and the artist and if you like, a YouTube link to the song. PLEASE ATTACH YOUR SONG TO THE PARTICULAR "WORD OF THE DAY".
Let's have some musical fun!
This is the house we used to live in
This is the place I used to know
This is the house we used to live in
Where I felt I could always go
House that we used to live in
House where I left my heart
House that we used to live in falling apart
This is the house we used to live in
This is the place that I once knew
This is the house we used to live in
Where I once shared my life with you
House that we used to live in
House where I left my heart
House that we used to live in falling apart
A house is not a home
And when you live alone you'll find
That it's much harder than
So much harder to believe
House that we used to live in
House where I left my heart
House that we used to live in falling apart
Our house was not a home
And we both felt alone it seems
It is empty now
Worn and broken like our dreams
This is the house we used to live in
This is a place in our green town
This is the house we used to live in
One look before they tear it down
House that we used to live in
House where I left my heart
House that we used to live in falling apart
Falling apart
House we used, used to live in

That boy took my love away
Though he'll regret it someday
But THIS boy wants you back again
That boy isn't good for you
Though he may want you too
This boy wants you back again
Oh, and this boy would be happy
Just to love you, but oh my
That boy won't be happy
'Til he's seen you cry
This boy wouldn't mind the pain
Would always feel the same
If this boy gets you back again
This boy
This boy
This boy

Whoa, here it comes
That funny feeling again
Winding me up inside
Every time we touch
Hey, I don't know
Oh, tell me where to begin
'Cause I never, ever, felt so much
Hey!
And I can't recall
Any love at all
Oh, baby, this blows 'em all away
It's got what it takes
So, tell me why can't this be love?
Straight from my heart
Oh, tell me why can't this be love?
I tell myself
Hey, only fools rush in
Only time will tell if we stand the test of time
All I know
You've got to run to win
And I'll be damned if I'll get
Hung up on the line, hey
No, I can't recall
Anything at all
Ah, baby, this blows 'em all away
Woo!
It's got what it takes
So, tell me why can't this be love?
You want it straight from the heart, hey
Tell me why can't this be love?
Woo! It's got what it takes
So, tell me why can't this be love?
Straight from the heart, oh
Tell me why can't this be love?
Baby, why can't this be love?
Got to know why can't this be love?
I wanna know why can't this be love?

I don't want another heartbreak
I don't need another turn to cry, no
I don't wanna learn the hard way
Baby, hello
Oh no, goodbye
But you got me like a rocket
Shooting straight across the sky
It's the way you love me
It's a feeling like this
It's centrifugal motion
It's perpetual bliss
It's that pivotal moment
It's, ah, impossible
This kiss, this kiss
Unstoppable
THIS kiss, this kiss
Cinderella said to Snow White
"How does love get so off course?
Oh, all I wanted was a white knight
With a good heart
Soft touch, fast horse"
Ride me off into the sunset
Baby, I'm forever yours
It's the way you love me
It's a feeling like this
It's centrifugal motion
It's perpetual bliss
It's that pivotal moment
It's, ah, unthinkable
This kiss, this kiss
Unsinkable
This kiss, this kiss
You can kiss me in the moonlight
On the rooftop under the sky, oh
You can kiss me with the windows open
While the rain comes pouring inside, oh
Kiss me in sweet slow motion
Let's let everything slide
You got me floating
You got me flying
It's the way you love me (The way)
It's a feeling like this
It's centrifugal motion (Ah, ah)
It's perpetual bliss
It's that pivotal moment
It's, ah, subliminal
This kiss, this kiss
It's criminal
This kiss, this kiss
It's the way you love me, baby (The way you love me, baby)
It's the way you love me, darling, yeah
It's the way you love me (The way)
It's a feeling like this

You must remember THIS
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by
And when two lovers woo
They still say "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by
Moonlight and love songs never out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy, and hate
Woman needs man and man must have his mate
That no one can deny
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by
This is not the first time
You tried to get away
This is not a party
Where people know your name
This is not a classroom
With teacher at the board
This is not a game show
With prizes at the door
Go
Don't you go
Won't you stay with me one more day
If we get through one more night
If we get through one more night
This is not a horse race
Where winners beat the time
This is not a funeral
With mourners in a line
This is not a sitcom
Where everything's alright
This is not a prison
With terror through the night
Go
Don't you go
Won't you stay with me one more day
If we get through one more night
If we get through one more night
This is not the first time
(You tried to get away)
This is not a party
(Where people know your name)
This is not a classroom
(With teacher at the board)
This is not a catshow
(With prizes at the door)
Go
Don't you go
Won't you stay with me one more day
If we get through one more night
If we get through one more night
Go
Don't you go
Won't you stay with me one more day
If we get through one more night
If we get through one more night
This is not the first time
You tried to get away
This is not a party
Where people know your name
Where people know your name

There've been times in my life
I've been wondering why
Still somehow I believed we'd always survive
Now I'm not so sure your waiting here
One good reason to try
What more can I say
What's left to provide
You think that maybe it's over
Only if you want it to be
Are you gonna wait for a sign? Your miracle
Stand up and fight
(THIS is it)
Make no mistake where you are
(THIS is it)
Your back's to the corner
(THIS is it)
Don't be a fool anymore
(THIS is it)
The waiting is over
No room to run, no way to hide
No time for wondering why
It's here, the moment is now 'bout to decide
Let him believe
Leave him behind
Keep me near in your heart
Know whatever you do, I'm here by your side
You said that maybe it's over
Not if you don't want it to be
For once in your life, here's your miracle
Stand up and fight
(THIS is it)
Make no mistake where you are
(THIS is it)
You're going no further
(THIS is it)
Until it's over and done
No one can tell you what you know
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Who makes the choice of how it goes
It's not up to me THIS time (you know)
Comes a day in every life
Make no mistake where you are
(THIS is it)
You're going no further
(THIS is it)
Until it's over and done
(THIS is it)
One way or another
(THIS is it)
No one can tell what the future holds (THIS is it)
Your back's to the corner (THIS is it)
You make the choice of how it goes (THIS is it)
The waiting is over (THIS is it)
No one can tell what the future holds (THIS is it)
You're going no further (THIS is it)
You make the choice of how...
Leonard Cohen
Well, my friends are gone and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'm crazy for love, but I'm not comin' on
I'm just payin' my rent every day, in the tower of song
I said to Hank Williams, "How lonely does it get?"
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet
But I hear him coughing, all night long
Oh, a hundred floors above me in the tower of song
I was born like THIS, I had no choice
I was born with the gift of a golden voice
And 27 angels from the Great Beyond
They tied me to this table, right here, in the tower of song
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry, baby, it doesn't look like me at all
I'm standin' by the window, where the light is strong
Ah, they don't let a woman kill you, not in the tower of song
Now you can say that I've grown bitter, but of this you may be sure
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor
And there's a mighty Judgement comin', but I may be wrong
You see, I hear these funny voices in the tower of song
I see you standin' on the other side
I don't know how the river got so wide
I loved you, baby, way back when
And all the bridges are burnin' that we might've crossed
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
We'll never, we'll never have to lose it again
Now I bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back
They're movin' us tomorrow to the tower down the track
But you'll be hearin' from me, baby, long after I'm gone
I'll be speakin' to you sweetly from a window, in the tower of song
Yeah, my friends are gone and my hair is grey
I ache in the places where I used to play
And I'm crazy for love, but I'm not comin' on
I'm just payin' my rent every day, in the tower of song

You see this guy
This guy's in love with you
Yes, I'm in love
Who looks at you the way I do?
When you smile, I can tell
We know each other very well
How can I show you?
I'm glad I got to know you, 'cause
I've heard some talk
They say you think I'm fine
Yes, I'm in love
And what I'd do to make you mine
Tell me now, is it so?
Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking
Don't let my heart keep breaking, 'cause
I need your love
I want your love
Say you're in love
In love with this guy
If not, I'll just die
Tell me now, is it so?
Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking
Don't let my heart keep breaking, 'cause
I need your love
I want your love
Say you're in love
In love with this guy
If not, I'll just die
Tuxedo waiters, black tie
White table cloths and red wine
We've been planning this night
Looking forward to it for some time
Now honey I know you love gettin dressed up, and you know I love showing you off
But watching your baby blue eyes dancing in the candlelight glow
All I can think about is gettin you home
Walking through the front door
Seeing your black dress hit the floor
Uh honey there sure ain't nothing like you loving me all night long
And all I can think about is getting you home
I don't need this menu, no I don't
I already know just what I want
Did I hear you right did you tell me
Go pay the waiter and let's leave
Now honey I know by that look in your eye and your hand drawing hearts on mine that our night out of the house ain't gonna last too long when all you can think about is gettin me home
Walking through the front door
Seeing your black dress hit the floor
Uh honey there sure ain't nothing like you loving me all night long
And all I can think about is gettin you home...
If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass
Can't think of anythin' I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
Making love with you
Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel
Go to sleep
Sometimes, all I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Peace came upon me
And it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel
Go to sleep
Sometimes, all I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Sometimes, all I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
And to love you

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one they were gone
Back at base bugs in the software
Flash the message "something's out there!"
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Where ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine decision street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it, boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine knights of the AIR
Ride super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a super hero
Everyone's a captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standing pretty
In this dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you, and let it go

Call out the instigators
Because there's something in the AIR
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here
And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now
Block off the streets and houses
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here
And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now
Hand out the arms and ammo
We're going to blast our way through here
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here and you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now
I can feel it coming in the AIR tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the AIR tonight? Oh Lord, oh Lord
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before, my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it coming in the AIR tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the AIR tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well, I remember, I remember, don't worry
How could I ever forget?
It's the first time
The last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up
No, you don't fool me
Well, the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me
And I can feel it coming in the AIR tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it in the AIR tonight, oh Lord, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the AIR tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord

We're walking in the AIR
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below
Are sleeping as we fly
I'm holding very tight
I'm riding in the midnight blue
I'm finding I can fly
So high above with you
On across the world
The villages go by like dreams
The rivers and the hills
The forests and the streams
Children gaze open-mouthed
Taken by surprise;
Nobody down below
Believes their eyes
We're surfing in the air
We're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by
Suddenly swooping low
On an ocean deep
Rousing up a mighty monster
From his sleep

Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight, Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now, Fernando
Every hour, every minute, seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry
There was something in the AIR that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Now we're old and gray, Fernando
Since many years, I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would my friend, Fernando
By Pink Floyd
Breathe, breathe in the AIR
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all your touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be
Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

Happy little day, Jimmy went away
Met his little Jenny on a public holiday
A happy pair they made, so decorously laid
'Neath the gay illuminations all along the promenade
"It's so good to know there's still a little magic in the air
I'll weave my spell"
"Jenny will you stay - tarry with me pray
Nothing 'ere need come between us tell me love, what do you say ?"
"Oh no I must away to my mum in disarray
If my mother should discover how I spent my holiday
It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air
I'll say farewell"
O rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still
O lady moon, shine down a little people magic if you will
Jenny pines away, writes a letter everyday
"We must ever be together, nothing can my love erase"
"Oh no I'm compromised, I must apologise
If my lady should discover how I spent my holidays..."
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Ooh oh oh oh oh ha

All my bags are packed
Ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin'
It's EARLY morn
The taxi's waitin'
He's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
And I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
close your eyes
I'll be on my way
Dream about days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
But, I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

In the EARLY mornin' rain
With a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart
And my pockets full of sand
I'm a long ways from home
And I missed my loved one so
In the early mornin' rain
With no place to go
Out on runway number nine
Big 707 set to go
Well I'm out here on the grass
Where the pavement never grows
Where the liquor tasted good
And the woman all were fast
There she goes, my friend
She's rolling out at last
Hear the mighty engines roar
See the silver wing on high
She's away and westward bound
Far above the clouds, she flies
Where the mornin' rain don't fall
And the sun always shine
She'll be flying o'er my home
In about three hours time
This ol' airport's got me down
It's no earthly good to me
'Cuz I'm stuck here on the ground
Cold and drunk as I might be
Can't jump a jet plane
Like you can't a freight train
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin' rain
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin' rain
So I best be on my way
In the early mornin' rain
Early in the evenin'
Just about supper time
Over by the courthouse
They're startin' to unwind
Four kids on the corner
Tryin' to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out
And he blows it on the harp
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Rooster hits the washboard
People just gotta smile
Blinky thumps a gut bass
And solos for a while
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out
On his kalamazoo
And Willy goes into a dance
Doubles on kazoo
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
You don't need a penny
Just to hang around
But if you've got a nickel
Won't you lay your money down?
Over on the corner
There's a happy noise
People come from all around
To watch the magic boy
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out in the street
City girls just seem to find out EARLY
How to open doors with just a smile
A rich old man and she won't have to worry
She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess every form of refuge has its price
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lying eyes
On the other side of town a boy is waiting
With fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
She drives on through the night anticipating
'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
She rushes to his arms, they fall together
She whispers that it's only for awhile
She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
She wonders how it ever got this crazy
She thinks about a boy she knew in school
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be
You can't hide your lying eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all your touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be
Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave
I got a certain little girl, she's on my mind
No doubt about it, she looks so fine
She's the best girl that I ever had
Sometimes she's gonna make me feel so bad
Hush, hush
I thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
She broke my heart but I love her just the same now
Hush, hush
Thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
I need her loving and I'm not to blame now
(Love, love)
They got it EARLY in the morning
(Love, love)
They got it late in the evening
(Love, love)
Well, I want that, need it
(Love, love)
Oh, I gotta gotta have it
She's got loving like quicksand
Only took one touch of her hand
To blow my mind and I'm in so deep
That I can't eat and I can't sleep
Listen, hush, hush
I thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
She broke my heart but I love her just the same now
Hush, hush
Thought I heard her calling my name now
Hush, hush
I need her loving and I'm not to blame now
(Love, love)
They got it EARLY in the morning
(Love, love)
They got it late in the evening
(Love, love)
Well, I want that, need it
(Love, love)
Yeah I gotta gotta have it

Knockin' at your door
Take so long to answer
Lord knows, it ain't the milkman
Could be stoppin' EARLY
Sellin' door to door

I can show you how to use it
First, you pull the curtain
While I spread some here
Wipe the surface gently

If you use it loosely-waded
This here'll take the pain out

Time for me to head on
Pack my kit and so long
Catch you bright and EARLY
Sellin' door to door

And won't mess your hair

[Verse 1]
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the EARLY morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
[Pre-Chorus]
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
[Chorus]
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Verse 2]
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone, there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny

[Pre-Chorus]
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go? (Slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did, but most we didn't
And why, I just don't know
[Chorus]
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind?
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
[Bridge]
Sometimes, I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile

One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrow
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
Nobody like you
There’s noone like you
Nobody like you
Early morning, April four
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?

Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Bad luck and trouble's my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Bad luck and trouble's my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Bad luck and trouble's my only friend
I've been down ever since I was ten
You know, wine and women is all I crave
A big bad woman's gonna carry me to my grave
Born under a bad sign
I've been down since I began to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Bad luck and trouble's my only friend.

How many times, looking at your picture
I've liked the way that you talk to me
But even in my dreams I've had to let you go
I know, I know
You're gonna say it's slippin' through our fingers
And all I want is, darlin', to be wanting you
Get away, don't give me the fever or the touch
'Cause it hurts too much
We've got a way with pulling in closer
And treating love so recklessly
We've got a way with pushing our LUCK
Oh, I've got a way with you and you've got a way with me
We've got a way with taking it higher
And hanging on so helplessly
We've got a way with pushing our luck
Oh, I've got a way with you and you've got a way with me
How many times, thinking of the feelings
I like it better when you're close to me
And in my heart, oh I'll never let you go
I know, I know
And when I look, look into your eyes I see
The way you're holding and you're tempting me now
I feel your kiss, oh I've got to get away
But tell me this, tell me will you miss me?
We've got a way with pulling in closer
And treating love so recklessly
We've got a way with pushing our luck
Oh, I've got a way with you and you've got a way with me
We've got a way with taking our chances
And hiding things that lovers do
But when you leave me, darling
I just can't hold on to you
Only for second chances
Only for words we had to say
Only to my real love
Why did you get away?
We've got a way with pulling in closer
And treating love so recklessly
We've got a way with pushing our luck
Oh, I've got a way with you and you've got a way with me
We've got a way with taking our chances
And hiding things that lovers do
But when you leave me, darling
I just can't hold on to you
We've got a way with pulling in closer
And treating love so recklessly
We've got a way with pushing our luck
Oh, I've got a way with you and you've got a way with me

We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for LUCK and we're on our way
We've only begun
Before the rising sun, we fly
So many roads to choose
We'll start out walking and learn to run
And yes, we've just begun
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watching the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day, together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
And yes, we've just begun

With a little LUCK we can help it out
We can make this whole damn thing work out
With a little love we can lay it down
Can't you feel the town exploding?
There is no end to what we can do together (Together)
There is no end (There is no end, there is no end)
The willow turns his back on inclement weather
And if he can do it, we can do it just me and you
And a little luck we can clear it up
We can bring it in for a landing
With a little luck we can turn it on
There can be no misunderstanding
There is no end to what we can do together (Together)
There is no end (There is no end, there is no end)
The willow turns his back on inclement weather
We can do it, just me and you
With a little push we could set it off
We can send it rocketing skywards
With a little love we could shake it up
Don't you feel the comet exploding?

Bye, bye my baby
Ooh, don't cry, lady, oh
Well, my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly out to my old fifty-five
As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
God knows I was feelin' alive
And now the sun's comin' up
I'm ridin' with Lady LUCK
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade
Just a wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
Lord, don't you know the feelin's gettin' stronger
Six in the morning, gave me no warnin'
I had to be on my way
Now the cars are all passin' me
Trucks are all flashin' me
I'm headed home from your place
And now the sun's comin' up
I'm ridin' with Lady LUCK
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade
Just a wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
Lord, don't you know, the feelin's gettin' stronger
Well, my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly out to my old fifty-five
As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy

Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
Alone in a crowd on a bus after work, and I'm dreaming
The guy next to me has a girl in his arms, my arms are empty
How does it feel when the girl next to you says she loves you?
It seems so unfair when there's love everywhere
But there's none for me
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
Someone to take on a walk by the lake, Lord, let it be me
Someone who's shy, someone who'll cry at sad movies
I know I would die if I ever found out she was fooling me
You're just a dream, and as real as it seems, I ain't that lucky
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh-ooh, woo, ooh-ooh)
All of my friends have a ring on their finger, they have someone
Someone to care for them, it ain't fair, I got no one
The car overheated, I called up and pleaded, there's help on the way
I called you collect, you didn't accept, you had nothing to say
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain
But if you were here with me
I'd feel so happy I could cry
You are so dear to me
I just can't let you say goodbye

I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream but still as sweet
Dry your eyes Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait

The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams Sunday girl
Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight
Stay at home Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world

If your love was as sweet as mine
I could be Sunday's girl

CATCH a falling star
And put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star
And put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
Catch a falling star
And put it in your pocket
Never let it fade away
Catch a falling star
And put it in your pocket
Save it for a rainy day
For love may come
And tap you on the shoulder
Some starless night
And just in case
You feel you want to hold her
You'll have a pocketful of starlight

For when your troubles
Start a multiplying
And they just might
It's easy to
Forget them without trying
With just a pocketful of starlight

A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer
Mean, mean pride
Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, catch the myth
Catch the mystery, catch the drift
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you
No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is
And what you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit
Catch the spirit, catch the spit
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to the friction of the day

In the chilly hours and minutes
Of uncertainty, I want to be
In the warm hold of your loving mind
To feel you all around me
And to take your hand, along the sand
Ah, but I may as well try and CATCH the wind
When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while, behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
That would make me sing
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near, to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind
For standin' in your heart
Is where I want to be, and I long to be
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind

CATCH a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
Don't be afraid to try the greatest sport around
(CATCH a wave, CATCH a wave) Everybody tries it once
Those who don't just have to put it down
You paddle out, turn around and raise
And baby, that's all there is to the coastline craze
You gotta CATCH a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
Not just a fad 'cause it's been goin' on so long
(CATCH a wave, CATCH a wave) All the surfers goin' strong
They said it wouldn't last too long
They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon and watch 'em
They'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon
And when they CATCH a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world
CATCH a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
So take a lesson from a top-notch surfer boy
(CATCH a wave, CATCH a wave) Get yourself a big board
But don't you treat it like a toy
Just get away from the shady turf
And baby, go CATCH some rays on the sunny surf
And when you CATCH a wave you'll be sittin' on top of the world
Way above, up on top of the world
CATCH a wave, you'll be sittin' on top of the world
Way above, up on top of the world

Well, I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or you won't know where I am
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end'a little girl
Well, you know that I'm a wicked guy
And I was born with a jealous mind
And I can't spend my whole life
Trying just to make you toe the line
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end'a little girl
Let this be a sermon
I mean everything I've said
Baby, I'm determined
And I'd rather see you dead
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end'a little girl
I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or you won't know where I am
You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man
That's the end'a little girl
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
Don't let the sun CATCH you cryin'
The night's the time for all your tears
Your heart may be broken tonight
But tomorrow in the morning light
Don't let the sun CATCH you cryin'
The night-time shadows disappear
And with them go all your tears
For the morning will bring joy
For every girl and boy
So don't let the sun CATCH you cryin'
We know that cryin's not a bad thing
But stop your cryin' when the birds sing
It may be hard to discover
That you've been left for another
But don't forget that love's a game
And it can always come again
Oh don't let the sun CATCH you cryin'
Don't let the sun CATCH you cryin', oh no
