November 26, 200619 yr You get it, you post the next set of lyrics. Song title and Band/artist (album and songwriter(s) if you know them) Here's mine: Well I been drinkin' again And I know it's a sin But I just can't refuse an old friend Cause life is gettin' me down And I been two times around And there ain't nothing but pain around the bend I'm not made for the time I'm born in the wrong century There's too much craziness here In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes Now this old world is a fright You know my future ain't bright And I'd just crawl in a hole if I could Or maybe live out in space Or some other far away place And not come back to this earth till it's good Oh but I'm dreaming again I know that I'm here till the end There's too much craziness here In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes Well you might think that I'm all wrong The things I say in this song I really wish I could see it your way Cause there's a storm rollin' in And it just might be the end So I'm praying we'll all get away Now my cup is running dry The weight of the world gets me down There's way too much craziness here In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes There's nowhere to turn So I'll just have to learn not to cry, no more It's all I can do till we find something new But I'll get by you know I'll try In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes.
November 26, 200619 yr Drinking Again Hey you should make it an "association" just for kicks... I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine On a cloud of sound I drift in the night Any place it goes is right Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here Well, you don't know what we can find Why don't you come with me little girl On a magic carpet ride You don't know what we can see Why don't you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free Close your eyes girl Look inside girl Let the sound take you away Last night I held Aladdin's lamp And so I wished that I could stay Before the thing could answer me Well, someone came and took the lamp away I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found Well, you don't know what we can find Why don't you come with me little girl On a magic carpet ride Well, you don't know what we can see Why don't you tell your dreams to me Fantasy will set you free Close your eyes girl Look inside girl Let the sound take you away Edited November 26, 200619 yr by Charger4U
November 26, 200619 yr Kansas - Masque - "Two Cents Worth" Livgren/Walsh you'd a had me two months ago, I recogonized most of it but couldnt place it until I heard the singers voice in my head. It would have never come to me and drove me crazy had I not just purchased Masque .... again just recently same era, very obscure progressive band When the summers night has changed its warmer breezes to the icy cold of silent winter freezes will you be there ? When the flowers in the windows of the neighbors start to bow their frozen heads and to leave us will I see you there? Will you stand by me against the cold night or are you afraid of the ice ? When the waters of the roaring ocean bring a chilling feeling and the beaches closing are you near me ? When the cloudy skies are blocking out the sun and suddenly your nose has begun to run do you still hear me ? Will you stand by me against the cold night or are you afraid of the ice ?
November 26, 200619 yr Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf. 220056[/snapback] One of my first band songs, great tune !

November 26, 200619 yr Remember when you were young (Heh heh) You shone like the sun (Title line omitted) Now there's a look in your eyes Like back holes in the sky (Title Line omitted) You were caught in the crossfire Of childhood and stardom Blown on the steel breeze Come on you target for faraway laughter Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr... You reached for the secret to soon You cried for the moon (Title line omitted) Threatened by shadows at night And exposed in the light (Title line omitted) Well you wore out your welcome With random precision Blown on the steel breeze Come on you raver, you seer of visions Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner... Nobody knows where you are How near or how far (Title line omitted) Pile on many more layers And I'll be joining you there (Title line omitted) And we'll bask in the shadow Of yesterday's triumph Sail on the steel breeze Come on you boy-child, You winner and loser Come on you miner for truth and delusion...
November 26, 200619 yr Author Razor: Ice by Crack the Sky from Animal Notes (or Safety in Numbers can't remember which) written by John Palumbo TJ: Shine on You Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd
November 26, 200619 yr Author OK here's another challenge (because I don't have time to type all of the lyrics) First 2 lines: "Take a little dope and walk out in the air. The stars are all connected to the brain"
November 26, 200619 yr Camino - you dog ! You know of Crack the Sky .........cool ! They fell on their face after Safety anyhow. albums 1.Crack the Sky '75 - this is the one with Ice - Rolling Stones album of the year in 75 2.Animal Notes '76 3.Safety in in Numbers '78 This is gonna be hard, I rarely pay close attention to lyrics, Shine on you Crazy Diamond had me stumped, I recogonized it but couldnt connect. So Im gonna need much more on this new one. Edited November 26, 200619 yr by razoredge
November 26, 200619 yr Author Yeah, I realized I was wrong on the album for "Ice" when I thought about it later. If you Like CTS I recommend "From The Greenhouse" it is a great album much in the same vein as Animal Notes/Safety In Numbers. I lost my CD somewhere and I miss it alot. OK, I'll give you some more of my last one now along with a hint. This song is by a very famous English band known for its volume. The song itself is a bit obscure(which is a hint all by itself). Take a little dope and walk out in the air the stars are all connected to the brain Find me a woman and lay down on the ground Her pleasure comes falling down like rain Get myself a car feel power as I drive Oh now I'm really in control *title line omitted*

Volume? The Who! And thanks to my brother, the song is "Naked Eye" I could Google the song for the album, but that's unfair. So the other music buffs can try for the album.

Camino - was never big on the Who, a handful of songs but thats it. Strange I know but for some reason I was not.........I think that reason was Zeppelin...I always went to the heavier side. I have From the Green House on tape also Dogcity and Raw Green House was very Floydish, Dogcity a bit too but the production on Dog City was not real good. Raw has this song "Elvis was my Daddy" its a gotta hear.

November 28, 200619 yr Ok, this one's easier: How's it going to go down? Will you meet him on "the Main Line"? Or will you catch him on the rebound? Will you marry for the money...take a lover in the afternoon? Feel your innocence slipping away...don't believe it's coming back soon... And you really don't remember...was it something that he said.... ....all those voices in your head... calling.............................REFRAIN

"Into a strange new world, into the after All your tears might find you've fallen too far Take another look, take another ride Can't we make them leave the hate behind And I still believe in nothing Will we ever see the shape of tomorrow? Into the empty storm, into the formless loss of hope, Where we can forget the game And I still believe in nothing Will we ever see the cure for our sorrow Nothing is sacred when no one is saved Nothing's forever so count your days Nothing is final and no one is real Pray for tomorrow and find you're empty still Nothing" Edited November 28, 200619 yr by YellowJacket894
