Linked word: lady

Thanks for the times that you've given me
The memories are all in my mind
And now that we've come to the end of our rainbow
There's something I must say out loud

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
I love you

When we are together, the moments I cherish
With every beat of my heart
To touch you, to hold you, to feel you, to need you
There's nothing to keep us apart

You're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady
And I love you
I love you

Commodores - Three Times a Lady

[hermitfish]

linked word = touch

I lie below, you float above
In the pretty white ships that I’ve been dreaming of
And I’d like to swim beside you
Getting dizzy in your wake
Getting close enough to touch you
Getting brave enough to take you into my arms
And bring you down to be with me

But I can’t do that thing anymore
I can’t be the thing I was before
Maybe I am better off alone
Because I crush everything
And I crush everything
And I crush everything

Jonathan Coulton - "I Crush Everything"

[Smilis]

Linked word =dreaming

"All the friends I believed in
I believed in for a while
They had their flair
They had their style
But nobody quite got it right
Nobody knew just how it feels to be me

But sometimes when I'm dreaming
And I dream a lot these days
I meet someone who understands
who leads me through the haze
It's only when I'm dreaming
that I fall in love for real
But I wake up screaming
Sometimes when I'm dreaming

Sometimes when I'm dreaming - Agneta Fältskog

[noho]

Linked word = believed

Where it began
I can't begin to knowin'
But then I know it's growin' strong

Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who'd have believed you'd come along

Hands, touchin' hands
Reachin' out
Touchin' me
Touchin' you

Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would


"Sweet Caroline" - Neil Diamond

[meretricious]

linked word = never

take another stab, try another play
maybe another drink will take the edge off
trying not to slip, trying to get a grip
but each time we kiss you're the perfect stranger

so me say, don't never you go
too far away from me girl
never you done that
don't never you mention certain words about
no no, never you done that
never you done that

General Public- never you done that

[Knock yourself out]

linked word = perfect

I don't want half hearted love affairs
I need someone who really cares
Life is too short to play silly games
I've promised myself I won't do that again
It's got to be perfect
It's got to be worth it
Too many people take second best
But I won't take anything less
It's got to be perfect

Perfect - Fairground Attraction

[Auriam]

linked word = too

You only stay with me in the morning
You only hold me when I sleep
I was meant to tread the water
But now I've gotten in too deep

For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away

You give me something
That makes me scared alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
Because someday I might know my heart

James Morrison
You give me something

[hermitfish]

linked word = please

I see you coming down
Your life is flashing before you
I see you coming round
You're talking over and over

You know I tried to please you
You're under anesthesia

I see you coming down
Too bad there's nothing left over
I don't know what you mean
You're talking over and over

You know I tried to please you
You're under anesthesia

Luna - "Anesthesia"

[noho]

Linked word = over

I realized as I lay down to sleep
We haven't spoke in weeks
So many things that I'd like to know
Come have a talk with me
I need a sign, something I can see
Why all the mystery?
I try not to fall for make believe
But what is reality?
Where do we go?
What do we know?
Life has to have a meaning
Show me the light
Show me the way
Show that you're listening

Show me that you love me
Show me that you walk with me
Hopefully, just above me
Heaven's watching over me


"Show Me" - John Legend

[EasierSaid]

linked word = why

Not a word, from your lips
You just took for granted that I want to skinny dip
A quick hit, that's your game
But I'm not a piece of meat, stimulate my brain
Night is young, so are we
Let's get to know each other better, slow and easily
Take my hand, let's hit the floor
Shake our bodies to the music
Maybe then you'll score

So come on baby, won't you show some class
Why you want to move so fast?
We don't have to take our clothes off
To have a good time (oh no)
We could dance and party all night
And drink some cherry wine (uh huh)
Na na na na na na, na na


"We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off" - Jermaine Stewart

[tarawhipped]

Linked word = cherry

Stone age love and strange sounds too,
Come on baby let me get to you.
Bad nights causin' teenage blues,
Get down ladies you've got nothing to lose!

Hello Daddy, hello Mom,
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb.
Hello world I'm your wild girl,
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb!

"Cherry Bomb," The Runaways

[meretricious]

linked word = world

I'll take you to the highest mountain
to the depths of the deepest sea
we won't need a map, believe me

now let my body do the moving
and let my hands do the soothing
let me show you the world in my eyes

that's all there is, nothing more
than you can feel now

"world in my eyes" depeche mode

[EasierSaid]

linked word = more

Friend what is it that you seek
What is it that you're trying to find
Someday I hope you realize
It shined in you all the time
Hills to climb, sights to see, seas to cross,
Friends to make, hands to shake, the world is yours,
Foods to taste, sounds to hear, love to feel,
Seeds to sow, things to know, fish to reel,
Space to quiz, stones to lift, life's a gift

What you mean
'I want more'

"I Want More (Part 1)" Faithless

[noho]

Linked word = friend

Like father like son
Not flesh nor fish nor bone
A red rag hangs from an open mouth
Alive at both ends but a little dead in the middle
A-tumbling and a-bumbling he will go
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Could never put a smile on that face

He's a sly one he's a shy one
Wouldn't you be too
Scared to be left all on his own
Hasn't a hasn't a friend to play with the Ugly Duckling
The pressure on the bubble will burst before our eyes
All the while in perfect time
His tears are falling on the ground
But if you don't stand up you don't stand a chance


"Squonk" - Genesis

[willntarra4eva]

Linked word - tears

Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscious calls, the guilty to come home
Your tears don't fall, they crash around me
Her conscious calls, the guilty to come home

The moments died, I hear no screaming
The visions left inside me are slowly fading
Would she hear me, if I called her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?

"Tears Don't Fall" - Bullet For My Valentine

[EasierSaid]

linked word - she

Your moms, your moms, why is she so nosey?
She plays me like a game but I'm no ring around the rosie
I even seen your dad at the family bar-b-que
He said 'I don't see nothing wrong with my daughter seeing you'
But it's your wife mister, she don't think that I'm charming
She thinks she's Mr. Whipple and she'll think I'll squeeze the Charmin
I promise I won't do this to your daughter, Carmen
Cause when I'm with girls my reputation is not harmin'
And if I'm not on tour, I'm working out at my house
I'll pick your daughter up some time, and even take her out
And every time I try to do this, I see without a doubt
Your wife will follow me around like she's a cop on a stake out
And when I told the man that, I thought that he would help me out
Till he said, 'I can't tell her nothin', she'll kick me out the house'

"Your Mom's in My Business" - K-Solo

[Justified12]

linked word = can't

Let's go to a rave,
And behave like we're trippin'
Simply 'cause we're so in love.

Funny hats, shiny pants-
All we need for some romance,
Go get dolled-up
And I'll pick you up.

There's no line for you and me
'Cause tonight we're V.I.P.
(I know somebody at the door).

I see that twinkle in your eye,
You shake that ass and I just die,
Let's check our coats and move out to the floor.

When I'm dancing with you
Tomorrow doesn't matter.
Turn that music up
'Till the windows start to shatter
'Cause you're the only one who can get me on my feet.
And I can't even dance.

Just look at me, Silly Me,
I'm as happy as can be-
I got a girl who thinks I rock.
And tomorrow there's no school,
So lets go drink some more Red Bull,
And not get home 'till about 6:00.

When I'm dancing with you
Tomorrow doesn't matter.
Turn that music up
'Till the windows start to shatter
'Cause you're the only one who can get me on my feet.
And I can't even dance.

Everybody here is staring
At the outfit that you're wearing-
(I) Love it when they check you out.
Cover's only twenty bucks,
And even if the dj sucks
It's time to turn this mutha out!

When we're together
There's no tomorrow,
No Tomorrow.
When we're together
There's no one in the world
but you and me.
Just you and me.
You and me

"No Tomorrow" - Orson

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: feet

You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service

"Head Over Feet" - Alanis Morissette[/b]

[Pinocchio1940]

Linked word: love



I read a note my grandma wrote back in nineteen twenty-three.
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me. He said,
"Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago,
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma so."

We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together.
Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever.
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead
Of her, I found this letter, and this is what it said:

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.

I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away,
In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years;
But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears.

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through;
I don't know how long I'll be.
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see.
And between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.
Between now and then, till I see you again,
I'll be loving you. Love, me.

Love, Me - Collin Raye

[noho]

Linked word = plan

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won’t have to drive too far
Just ’cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living


"Fast Car" - Tracy Chapman

[EasierSaid]

linked word - city

You've been makin' your brags around town
That you've been lovin' my man
But the man I love
When he picks up trash
He puts it in a garbage can
And that's what you look like to me
And what I see's a pity
You better close you face and stay outta my way
If you don't wanna go to fist city

"Fist City" - Loretta Lynn

[Mestiza]

Linked word 'love'

Wait for the day
You'll go away
Knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws
Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was
Cause I've done everything I know to try and change your mind...
...and I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long time



Linda Ronstadt "Long Long Time"

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: memory

There were horses in the stables
And the stables were right next door
I saw a girl once ride those very horses
It might have been me, I'm not really sure
Oh memory has a keen edge
Drawing blood and sometimes more

And all my pretty horses fly

Oh my childhood coming to see me
In the shapes of those I've loved
There were mountains in the far off distance
And they asked me what could be done
Oh the climbing can seem endless
But I climbed them every one

And all my pretty horses fly
All my pretty horses fly

And I stay here in my stillness
With my ghosts of memory
There was dancing; I still can remember
Like the apples taken from our tree
Oh my daughters fly like horses
In the flying remember me

"All My Pretty Horses" - the Nields

[meretricious]

linked word= horses

there's a message floatin' in the air
crazy horses riding everywhre
it's a warning, it's in every tounge
got to stop those crazy horses on the run

what a show, there they go
smoking up the sky
crazy horses all got riders
and they're you and i

the Osmonds, Crazy Horses

[noho]

linked word = sky

I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars
On a collision course
I am a satellite I'm out of control
I am a sex machine ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to
Oh oh oh oh oh explode
I'm burnin' through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm traveling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you


"Don't Stop Me Now" - Oueen

[tarawhipped]

Linked word = Fahrenheit

99.9 Fahrenheit degrees.
Stable now, with rising possibilities.
It could be normal but it isn't quite.
Could make you want to stay awake at night.

You seem to me
Like a man
0n the verge of burning
99.9 Fahrenheit degrees.

Pale as a candle
And your face is hot.
And if I touch you
I might get what you've got.

"99.9 Fahrenheit Degrees," Suzanne Vega

[EasierSaid]

linked word = hot

Well I got a nursing degree in the mountains
While you were off serving a seven year sentence
And I still don't have an ounce of pity
For you and that bastard you claim is half mine
Red hot tugboat
R-e-d-h-o-t tugboat pushing a container ship filled
To the brim with ammunition set to explode
Underneath the most beautiful bridge in the Bay
Well I got bright tan lines, and your face is blistered
From playing golf, all the livelong day
And I got so drunk off a rumcake from the trash
And you got laid more than I would like to admit


"Red Hot Tugboat" - Ral Partha Vogelbacher

[gorn]

linked word = Bay

Seventy-three men sailed her
From the San Francisco Bay
Rolled off of their ship and here's what they had to say
We're calling everyone to ride along
To another shore
We can laugh our lives away
And be free once more
But no one heard them calling
No one came at all
They were too busy watching those old raindrops fall
As the storm was blowing
Out on the peaceful sea
Seventy-three men sailing off to history

Ride, Captain, ride
Upon your mystery ship ...

- Blues Image

[noho]

linked word = sailed

I sailed an ocean unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor
I wrest the waters fight Neptune's waters
Sail through the sorrows of life's marauders
Unrepenting often empty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Caught like a sewer rat alone but I sail
Bought like a crust of bread but oh do I wail


"Sail On Sailor" - Beach Boys

[EasierSaid]

linked word - like

It is the night, my body's weak
I'm on the run, no time for sleep
I've got to ride, ride like the wind
To be free again

And I've got such a long way to go
(Such a long way to go)
To make it to the border of Mexico
So I'll ride like the wind
Ride like the wind

"Ride like the Wind" - Christopher Cross
