1)
But hey, maybe today, with the waves so blue
I can be true with you.
2)
The moon upon the ocean
is swept around in motion
but without ever knowing
the reason for its flowing
3)
I'm the kind to wait for somethin' special instead of fallin' too fast
I believe the night is something precious, that's why I want it to last
4)
Oh, the more it changes, the more it stays the same
And the hand just re-arranges the players in the game
5)
Broken glass of my mirror
Makes my eyes see much clearer
6)
There's the girl that you were after
Broken glass, complete disaster
7)
Sometimes there's a part of me
Has to turn from here and go
Running like a child from these warm stars
8)
I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
What's on my mind
9)
We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
(Don Henley, "Dirty Laundry" - Guessed by Brucha)
10)
There's no turning back now
My fate is traced in blood
I've tasted true salvation
Your power is my drug
11)
He's the hairy handed gent who ran amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor
(Warren Zevon, "Werewolves of London" - Guessed by Brucha)
12)
There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
13)
And fire flew from his finger tips as he rosined up his bow
When he pulled that bow across the strings, it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined in, it sounded just like this
(The Charlie Daniels Band, "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" - Guessed by Redhawk)
14)
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
15)
I might be all the way
And we'll be playful roller-coaster friends
And tomorrow we'll say goodbye
16)
They brayed at the ground
And pulled on tugging a dream
Out of a smile and into a scream
17)
Fiction.
That's all you really are I know,
Editorial dreams.
They can't make you real,
18)
Oh give these clay feet wings to fly
To touch the face of the stars
19)
We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
We gotta move these colour TV's
(Dire Straits, "Money For Nothing" - Guessed by Redhawk)
20)
Late last night the rain was knocking at my window
I moved across the darkened room and in the lampglow
I thought I saw down in the street
The spirit of the century
Telling us that we're all standing on the border
21)
Everybody asks me how she's doing
Has she really lost her mind?
I said, I couldn't tell you I've lost mine
22)
All the world's a candy store
He's been trick or treatin'
23)
In his tears he sees his face
"I am the end of the human race
When I'm gone there'll be no trace
For I'm the sole survivor"
24)
You said - oh girl, it's a cold world
When you keep it all to yourself
I said you can't hide on the inside
All the pain you've ever felt
25)
Our time is just a point along a line
That runs forever with no end
I'll be somewhat surprised if anyone manages to guess a few of these.
