It was the night before Christmas in a holding cell for the inebriated
A genleman of advanced years confided in me that he believed he would die within the next 12 months
He proceded to sing a song

I haven't viewed you visually appearing as stunning as you are this evening and I haven't viewed you glowing to the degree you are, you are awesome, that's an outfit on you ive not seen before or the bleach foils on your head they are like your peepers, I have been visually impaired....

Lady In Red - Chris De Burgh

No-one got mine from ages back so I'll re-post it:

Strange but it is a fact - what being alone can do,
Since I departed,my feelings for you have grown with each passing 24 hours.

Clue: It's a 60's song - not enough 60's on this thread! :-(

All the time, I like you the best
Just you, no matter what time of the day it is
Irrespective of your proximity to me
I don’t care, love, about your geographical location
You are on my mind all of the time.

Night and Day - Frank Sinatra

See post just above for my one!

"A fighter is coming back,
I view him through bright illumination,
Fleeing from people he doesn't know,
I'll view him in the dip,
Fight upon fight,
warmth upon warmth,
To make the tale shorter,
I went quite insane.

Reclining on a seat in a green space,
A long way from a war,
To make the tale shorter,
I went quite insane.

Standing around the night,
Awaiting the arrival of a man,
I am pretty and tidy,
You're too youthful,
to stand in the road,
awaiting the arrival of persons unknown."

The song isn't at all obscure but I suppose we all just know the chorus.
How about this one:

You begin a chat although you're unable to conclude it
Although you're speaking a great deal, no words of any consequence are coming out

Psycho Killer - Talking Heads

here's one for ye all:

You're very cheeky when you claim to be my mate
I was depressed and you laughed at me
You're very cheeky to say you want to help me
All you want is to be successful

That overweight shiny sphere is going to glisten like a piece of over polished silver cutlery,
But we are not going to do anything about it, You will be glad you did.
Remove all footwear, Don't be afraid.
Carry that glass object filled with liquid to me.
I will be an infant for you for the evening.

Celestial objects are dimming although I stick around, endearing person
Continuing to fancy your smooch
I shall be yearning to hang out until the break of day, endearing person

The old triangle

Who says love, says kids
Says forever and says divorce
Who says peers says mourning because problems never come alone
Who says crisis says world
Says 3th world hunger
Who says fatigue, says waking
deaf from yesterday
So we party to forget the
problems

Dream A Little Dream Of Me - The Mamas & The Papas.

At what stage will you descend,at what stage will you touch ground?
I'd have been better off remaining at home with the animals & heeding the words of my father.

Confidence I am attempting to find and I discover it in your person
Any dawn-to-dark for us, a certain thing different
Unlock consciences in the aid of a disparate perspective
Also nought other is of concern

You could be my girlfriend but you're kinda taking the piss. You talk in a rather nasty manner and maybe as if you are on drugs, and totally unproductive. I repeat, you could be my girlfriend.
