Am I the only one who finds themselves posting songs that they have posted in the past for different words. Sometimes on a number of different occasions. I guess my pool of songs does have a limit. |
Windmills of your mind - Noel Harrison
only registered users can see external links [Verse 1] Round like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel Never ending or beginning on an ever-spinning reel Like a snowball down a mountain or a carnival balloon Like a carousel that's turning, running rings around the moon Like a CLOCK whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind [Verse 2] Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes of its face And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind [Verse 3] Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head Why did summer go so quickly? Was it something that you said? Lovers walk along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand? Pictures hanging in a hallway or the fragment of a song Half remembered names and faces, but to whom do they belong? When you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware That the autumn leaves were turning to the colour of her hair [Outro] A circle in a spiral, a wheel within a wheel Never ending nor beginning on an ever-spinning reel As the images unwind like the circles that you find In the windmills of your mind |
Stranger in the crowd - Elvis
only registered users can see external links I'd been standing on a corner Since a quarter after seven I was down to my last cigarette And the CLOCK in the window At a quarter to eleven I was watching all the people Passing by me going places Just the loneliest guy in the town Looking for a friendly smile But all that I could see were faces And then, just like the taste of milk and honey I found the stranger I'd been looking for The way my cup of love was overflowing I knew the stranger in the crowd And I would be strangers no more The love it found us on that corner At a quarter to eleven I thought you were to good to be true All my life I had believed That angels only live in Heaven But now, we share the taste of milk and honey Each day is sweeter than the day before My cup of love is overflowing Because the stranger in the crowd And I would be strangers no more Deep inside, my cup of love was overflowing I found the stranger I'd been looking for The way my cup of love was overflowing I knew the stranger in the crowd And I would be strangers no more I knew the stranger in the crowd And I would be strangers no more |

These foolish things - Nat King Cole

Oh, how the ghost of you clings! These foolish things remind me of you First daffodils and long excited cables And candle lights on little corner tables And still my heart has wings These foolish things remind me of you The park at evening when the bell has sounded The "Ile de France" with all the gulls around it The beauty that is Spring's These foolish things remind me of you How strange how sweet to find you still These things are dear to me They seem to bring you near to me The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations Silk stockings thrown aside dance invitations Oh, how the ghost of you clings! These foolish things remind me of you Gardenia perfume ling'ring on a pillow Wild strawb'ries only seven francs a kilo And still my heart has wings These foolish things remind me of you The smile of Garbo and the scent of roses The waiters whistling as the last bar closes The song that Crosby sings These foolish things remind me of you How strange how sweet to find you still These things are dear to me They seem to bring you near to me The scent of smould'ring leaves, the wail of steamers Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
