New game: Lyrics Chain

[Rachel]

Linked word = Closer

Come on closer
I wanna show you
What I'd like to do
You sit back now
Just relax now
I'll take care of you

Hot temptations
Sweet sensations
Infiltrating through
Sweet sensations
Hot temptations
Coming over you

Gonna take it slow babe
Do it my way
Keep your eyes on me
Your reaction
To my action
Is what I want to see

Closer by Jem

[Silent_X]

Linked Word= sensations

"Facination"- La Roux

It's been seven hours long
And your shadow still hangs on
You've been two weeks gone
And so tonight I followed you home

There are so many different ways
Of collecting all the strays
The ones that get away

Old fascinations, we crave
New sensations
Old fascination is feeding my
Frustrations
It's feeding my frustrations
And I, I haven't got the patience

[noho]

Linked word = seven

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues


"Nothing Compares 2 U" - Sinead O'Connor

[KiWy]

Linked word = away

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Africa - by Toto

[brave-little-toaster]

Linked word- Tonight
"Do me wrong, do me right,
Tell me lies, but hold me tight,
Save your goodbyes 'till the morning light,
Don't let me be lonely tonight.
Say goodbye and say hello
Sure 'nuf good to see you, but it's time to go
Don't say yes, but please don't say no
I don't want to be lonely tonight."
-James Taylor, Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight

[Ariel]

Linked word = lonely

Eleanor Rigy
Songwriters: LENNON, JOHN / MCCARTNEY, PAUL

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from ?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong ?

Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working. Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

Ariel
How I Met Your Mother

[noho]

Linked word = nobody

He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command


"Nowhere Man" - The Beatles

[KiWy]

Linked word = Man

Say you're leavin' on the seven thirty train
And that you're heading out to Hollywood
Girl, you've been givin' me that line so many times
It kinda gets that feelin' bad looks good, yeah

That kinda lovin' turns a man to a slave
That kinda lovin' sends a man right to his grave

I go crazy, crazy, baby, I go crazy
You turn it on - then you're gone
Yeah you drive me crazy, crazy
Crazy for you baby
What can I do, honey
I feel like the color blue

Aerosmith - Crazy

[Ariel]

Linked word = Grave

Long Black Veil by Danny Dill and Marijohn Wilkin

Ten years ago on a cold dark night
Someone was killed 'neath the town hall lights
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran, looked alot like me.

She walks these hills in a long black veil
visits my grave when the night winds wail
nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me.

Ariel
How I Met Your Mother

[CrazyTaraWitch]

Linked word = lights

Ian Tyson - Lights of Laramie

What in the world's come over me,
I never thought I'd see the day,
When that old rodeo would turn me loose
And I'd be headin home to stay

Now I'm lookin for the lights of Laramie,
I never thought I'd miss you so.
If you let me in your lovin arms in Laramie,
I'll never ever let you go
Girl, I'll never ever let you go

Can't leave your memory behind
Don't matter where I go,
Don't matter what I do.
If God gave Wyoming to the wind,
He must've given my heart to you,
Forever and ever

Oh how those lights like diamonds shine,
Across the wild and windy plains.
Ain't nothin in the world I would give to be
A diamond in your eyes again
Forever and ever

Now I'm lookin for the lights of Laramie,
Never thought I'd miss you so.
If you let me in your lovin arms in Laramie,
I'll never ever let you go,
Girl I'll never ever let you go

[Ariel]

linked word = rodeo Hey, THANKS for breaking the curse I left on this game!!!!

Someday Soon

There's a young man that I know, his age is twenty-one
Comes from down in southern Colorado
Just out of the service, he's lookin' for his fun
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

My parents can not stand him 'cause he rides the rodeo
My father says that he will leave me cryin'
I would follow him right down the toughest road I know
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

But when he comes to call, my pa ain't got a good word to say
Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in the younger days

So blow, you old Blue Northern, blow my love to me
He's drivin' in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

Ariel
How I Met Your Mother

[KiWy]

Linked word = tonight

Tonight I wanna give it all to you.
In the darkness.
There's so much I wanna do.
And tonight I wanna lay it at your feet.
'Cause girl, I was made for you.
And girl, you were made for me.

I was made for lovin' you baby.
You were made for lovin' me.
And I can't get enough of you baby.
Can you get enough of me ?

I was made for lovin' you - KISS

[CrazyTaraWitch]

linked word = give

Nat King Cole - LOVE

L is for the way you look at me,
O is for the only one I see,
V is very very extra ordinary,
E is even more than anyone that I adore

But love is all that I can give to you.
Love is more than just a game for two.
Two in love can make it,
Take my heart and please don't break it.
Love was made for me and you.

[Hemiola]

KiWy and brave-little-toaster--I'm surprised you didn't quote a much more famous song called "Tonight"

Tonight, tonight,
I'll see my love tonight,
Tonight there will be no morning star!.....
Today, the minutes seem like hours,
The hours go so slowly,
When all things now are bright!....
But here you are,
And what was just a sun
Is a star tonight!

Excerpted from "Tonight"
West Side Story
words by Stephen Sondheim; music by Leonard Bernstein

Of course, I'm probably just showing my age.

[EasierSaid]

Linked word: here

I want my money back
I'm down here drowning in your fat
You got me on my knees praying for everything you lack
I ain't afraid of you
I'm just a victim of your fear
You cower in your tower praying that I'll disappear

Saul Williams, "List of Demands"

[CrazyTaraWitch]

linked word = disappear

Stolen Car by Patty Griffin

I met a little girl
And I settled down,
In a little house
Out on the edge of town.

We got married,
Swore we'd never part,
Then little by little we drifted
From each others' hearts.

At first I thought,
It was just restlessness,
That would fade as time went by,
And our love grew deep.

In the end it was somethin
More I guess,
Tore us apart and
Made us weak.

I'm drivin a stolen car,
Down on Eldridge Avenue.
Each night I wait to get caught,
But I never do.

She asked if I remembered
The letters I wrote,
When our love was young
And bold.

She said last night
She read those letters,
And they made her feel
100 years old.

I'm drivin a stolen car,
On a pitch black night,
And I'm tellin myself,
It's gonna be alright.

I drive by night,
And I travel in fear,
That in this darkness,
I will disappear.

[Rhiannon9891]

Linked word = drive

Come on baby let’s get out of this town
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down
There’s a chill in my bones
I don’t want to be left alone
So baby you can sleep while I drive

You Can Sleep While I Drive – Melissa Etheridge

[CrazyTaraWitch]

linked word = come

Come to me now
And lay your hands over me.
Even if it's a lie,
Say it will be alright,
And I shall believe.

Open the door,
Show me your face tonight.
I know it's true,
No one heals me like you,
But I do believe

That not everything is gonna be
The way you think it oughta be.
Seems like everytime I try to make it right
It all comes down on me.
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me,
And I shall believe.

Broken in two,
I know you're on to me,
That I only come home
When I'm so all alone,
That I do believe

That not everything is gonna be
The way you think it oughta be.
Seems like everytime I try to make it right
It all comes down on me.
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me,
And I shall believe.

Please say honestly
You won't give up on me,
And I shall believe,
And I shall believe,
And I shall believe.

Sheryl Crow- "I Shall Believe"

[Wickedcharm]

Linked word = right

Avenged Sevenfold - "Afterlife"

Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen
so unsure but it seems, cause we've been waiting for you.
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway.

I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right
Such a surreal place to see, so how did this come to be?
Arrived too early.

And when I think of all the places I just don't belong.
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far.

I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife
Cause this time I'm right, to move on and on, far away from here.

A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain
Can leave this place but refrain, cause we've been waiting for you.
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway.

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear, escape from this afterlife
Cause this time I'm right to move on and on, far away from here.
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you,
This place full of peace and light, and I'd hope you might
take me back inside when the time is right.

[noho]

Linked word = inside

I can't sleep ‘cause its burning deep inside
like gasoline on fire running wild
no more fear ‘cause I'm getting closer now
so unreal but I like it anyhow

I go faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster and faster

and I can't live in a fairytale of lies
and I can't hide from the feeling ‘cause it's right
and I go faster and faster and faster and faster for life
I can't live in a fairytale of lies


"Faster" - Within Temptation

[little.hesperides]

Linked word = fire

Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire
The ring of fire

The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh but the fire went wild

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire
The ring of fire

Ring of Fire - Johnny Cash

[Rhiannon9891]

Linked word = down

Bury me softly in this womb
I give this part of me for you
Sand rains down and here I sit
Holding rare flowers
In a tomb...in bloom

Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
See my heart I decorate it like a grave
You don't understand who they
Thought I was supposed to be
Look at me now a man
Who wont let himself be

Down in a hole, feelin so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Id like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied

Down in a hole and they've put all
The stones in their place
Ive eaten the sun so my tongue
Has been burned of the taste
I have been guilty
Of kicking myself in the teeth
I will speak no more
Of my feelings beneath

Down in a hole, feelin so small
Down in a hole, losin my soul
Id like to fly but my
Wings have been so denied

Alice In Chains : Down in a Hole

[noho]

Linked word = place

It's a darkness you can't deny
But it don't belong in a grown up mind
Suppose you'll find this place in a youngster's eyes
Coming into life you needn't cry
But at a certain point you gotta let it go
Or it will cross the permanent threshold
You know you gotta find it out in somethin' else good
Oh black metal you're so misunderstood


"Holdin' On To Black Metal" - My Morning Jacket

[Ariel]

Linked word=darkness

"Sounds of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

Ariel
How I Met Your Mother

[CrazyTaraWitch]

linked word = people

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been,
Lives in dream.
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door;
Who is it for?

All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?

Father Mackenzie, writing the words to a sermon that no one will hear,
No on comes near.
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there;
What does he care?

All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name,
Nobody came.
Father Mackenzie, wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave,
No one was saved.

All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?

[Füchsin]

linked word = socks

"don't let me get me" by Pink

never win 1st place
I don't support the team
I can't take direction and my socks are never clean
teachers dated me
my parents hated me
I was always in a fight 'cause I can't do nothing right
everyday I fight a war against the mirror
I can't take the person staring back at me

I'm a hazard to myself
don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
it's bad when you annoy yourself
so irritating
don't want to be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else
I wanna be sombody else

[Ariel]

Linked word = fight

"Cruel War" by Peter, Paul, and Mary

The Cruel War is raging, Johnny has to [b]fight
I want to be with him from morning to night.
I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so,
Won't you let me go with you?
No, my love, no.

Tomorrow is Sunday, Monday is the day
That your Captain will call you and you must obey.
Your captain will call you it grieves my heart so,
Won't you let me go with you?
No, my love, no.

I'll tie back my hair, men's clothing I'll put on,
I'll pass as your comrade, as we march along.
I'll pass as your comrade, no one will ever know.
Won't you let me go with you?
No, my love, no.

Ariel

[Füchsin]

Linked word = Tomorrow

"Here I Am" by Tegan & Sara

better than the best
stronger than the rest
she said here I am
she said here I am
gonna take you
to the end of tomorrow
I will take you
to the end of my world
I'm gonna fight for the right
to believe in myself
I'm gonna fight for the right
to release myself
release myself and
rainbow shirt ribbed
in acid love
and our lives are ribbed
in plastic love
here I am
here I am

[ToTheNetherRealm]

Liked word = hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

Johnny Cash - Hurt

[noho]

Linked word = myself

I'm going to find myself a girl
Who can show me what laughter means
And we'll fill in the missing colors
In each other's paint by number dreams
And then we'll put our dark glasses on
And we'll make love until our strength is gone
And when the morning light comes streaming in
We'll get up and do it again
Get it up again


"The Pretender" - Jackson Browne
