Come on everybody...sing your favorite song!!!

[stranger]

I'm in an Otis Redding mood
---------

These arms of mine
They are lonely
Lonely and feeling blue
These arms of mine
They are yearning
Yearning from wanting you

And if you
Would let them
Hold you Oh how grateful I will be

These arms of mine
They are burning
Burning from wanting you
These arms of mine
They are wanting
Wanting to hold you

And if you
Would let them hold you
Ohh how grateful I will be

Come on, come on baby
Just be my little woman [yeah]
Just be my lover I need somebody,
[Somebody] To treat me right
[Ohh] I need your warm loving arms to hold me tight
And I need you tender lips too
Hold me, hold me

Hey speck, what about a little fred astaire? and *swoon*

------------

Drop that long face!
C'mon have your fling
Why keep nursing the blues?
If you want this whole world on a swing,
put on your dancing shoes,
stop wasting time
Put on your dancing shoes
Watch your spirits climb

Shall we dance
Or keep on moping?
Shall we dance
or walk on air?
Shall we give in
to despair
Or shall we dance with never a care

Life is short
We're getting older
Don't you be
An also-ran
You better dance little lady
Dance little man
Dance whenever you can

good choice

I like Smokey myself (it must be my Motown roots)

Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
Maybe you'd go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion


Maybe you think that love would tie you down
You ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love was made for fools
So it makes you wise to break the rules

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
Maybe you'd go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Maybe you think that love would tie you down
You ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love was made for fools
So it makes you wise to break the rules

Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
That would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like loving me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
Said, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

Well, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion... (to fade)

Gene Kelly?

All I do the whole night through
Is dream of you.
With the dawn I still go on
Dreamin' of you.
You're every thought, you're everything,
You're every song I ever sing
Summer, winter, autumn, and spring.
Were there more than 24 hours a day,
They'd be spent in sweet content dreamin' away.
Sky's are gray! Sky's are blue!
Morning, noon, and night-time, too!
All I do the whole day through
Is dream of you-o-u!

It's the cat's meow!


All I do the whole day through
Is dream of YOU-O-U

That's How Strong My Love Is

If I was the Sun way up there
I'd go with love most everywhere
I'll be the moon when the sun goes down
Just to let you know that I'm still around.

That's how strong my love is, woh
that's how strong my love is.
Thats how strong my love is baby. baby
that's how strong my love is.

I'll be the weeping willow drowning in my tears
And you can go swimming when you are here
I'll be the rainbow after the tears are gone
Wrap you in my colors and keep you warm.

That's how strong my love is, darling
That's how strong my love is, baby
That's how strong my love is, woh
That's how strong my love is.

I'll be the ocean so deep and wide
And catch all the tears whenever you cry
I'll be the breeze after the storm is gone
To dry your eyes and love you all warm.

That's how strong my love is, baby
That's how strong my love is now
That's how strong my love is, darling
That' show strong my love is, again now.

That's how strong my love is, so deep and wide
thats how strong my love
So much to love, yes so much to love, woh
there's so much love, there's so much love
Anything the sun can do I will do it for you
Any kind of love you want, I'll be with you.

Gene Kelly?

I could do a little Gene Kelly
----------

Life was a song
You came along
I’ve laid awake the whole night through
If I ever dared
To think you cared
This is what I’d say to you:

You were meant for me
And I was meant for you
Nature patterned you
And when she was done
You were all the sweet things
Rolled up in one
You’re like a plaintive melody
That never lets me free
But I’m content
The angels must have sent you
And they meant you
Just for me

But I’m content
The angels must have sent you
And they meant you
Just for me

 

[speck76]

I could do some Ray Charles

The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I miss you
Please don't take my sunshine away

I'll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me to love another,
You'll regret it all some day:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I miss you
Please don't take my sunshine away


You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But not you've left me and love another;
You have shattered all my dreams:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I miss you
Please don't take my sunshine away

 

[speck76]

It’s 3 am I must be lonely

3:05 actually

-----

I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain, deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don't you ever bet me
'Cause I'm gonna be true if you let me
You're gonna love me, like nobody's loved me
Come rain or come shine
We'll be happy together, unhappy together
Now won't that be just fine
The days may be cloudy or sunny
We're in or out of the money
But I'm with you always
I'm with you rain or shine

not lonely at all

although I must be headed to bed soon, after Speck gets a walk

I will leave you for now with this, a little Louis Armstrong


Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singin' in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longin' to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

(instrumental break)

Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longin' to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Yes, dream a little dream of me

[stranger]

Now it's time to say good night
good night sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
good night sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you

Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night sleep tight
Now the moon begins to shine
Good night sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
Mm, mm, mm

Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
Good night sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you
(Good night, good night everybody
everybody everywhere, goodnight)

 

[stitch rocks]

well i couldn't tell you
why she felt that way
she felt it everyday
but i couldn't help her
i just watched her make the same mistakes again

what's wrong what's wrong now
too many too many problems
don't know where she belongs
where she belongs

she wants to go home
but nobodys home
its where she lies
broken inside
there's no place to go
no place to go
to dry her eyes
broken inside

open your eyes
and look outside
find the reasons why
you've been rejected
and now you can't find
what you've left behind

be strong be strong now
too many too many problems
don't know where she belongs
where she belongs

she wants to go home
but nobodys home
its where she lies
broken inside
there's no place to go
no place to go
to dry her eyes
broken inside

her feelings she hide
her thing she can't find
she's loosing her mind
she's falling behind
she can't find a place
she's loosing her faith
she's falling from grace
she's all over the place

yeaahhh

she wants to go home
but nobodys home
its where she lies
broken inside
there's no place to go
no place to go
to dry her eyes
broken inside

she's lost inside
lost inside
uh ohw
she's lost inside
lost inside
uh huh ohw uh how.

 

[speck76]

I'm alone
Yeah I don't know if I can face the night
I'm in tears
And the cryin' that I do is for you
I want your love let's break the wall between us
Don't make it tough I'll put away my pride
Enough's enough, I've suffered and I've seen the light

*You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and make it alright
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight*

Don't know what I'm gonna do about this feeling inside
Yes, It's true loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love I'm nothing but a beggar
What can I do?
I'm sleepin' in this bed alone

You're the reason I live
You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give
When I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why
Baby, baby, baby

*You're my angel
Come and save me tonight
You're my angel
Come and make it alright
You're my angel
Come and save me tonight*

 

[tigsmom]

Looks like it was a busy night here.:lol:

 

[MerHearted]

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure, of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart, right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertone, just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I've become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I've become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do,
Is be more like me and be less like you

I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Here in this diary,
I write you visions of my summer.
It was the best I ever had.
There were choruses and sing-alongs,
And that unspoken feeling of knowing
Right now is all that matters
All the nights we stayed up talking
and listening to 80's songs;
quoting lines from all those movies that we love.
It still brings a smile to my face.
I guess when it comes down to it...

Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up:
These are the best days of our lives.
The only thing that matters
is just following your heart
and eventually you'll finally get it right.

Breaking into hotel swimming pools,
and wreaking havoc on our world.
Hanging out at truck stops just to pass the time.
The black top's singing me to sleep.
Lighting fireworks in parking lots,
illuminate the blackest nights.
Cherry cokes under this moonlight summer sky.
2015 Riverside, it's time to say, "goodbye."
Get on the bus, it's time to go.

Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up:
These are the best days of our lives.
The only thing that matters
is just following your heart,
and eventually you'll finally get it right.
