Carl Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Thinking of starting a category for Songs About Sacrifice. What got me thinking about it is "The Price" by Twisted Sister, which spells it out:It's the price we gotta payAnd all the games we gotta playMakes me wonder if it's worth it to carry onAny others you can think of?

_Laurie_ Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Midnight Train To Georgia Gladys Knight & The PipsHe kept dreamin' (dreamin')That someday he'd be a starA super star, but he didn't get farBut he sure found out the hard wayThat dreams don't always come trueSo he pawned all his hopesAnd he even sold his old carBought a one way ticket backTo the life he once knewOh yes he didHe said he would When A Man Loves A Woman ~ Percy SledgeWhen a man loves a womanSpend his very last dimeTrying to hold on to what he needsHe'd give up all his comfortSleep out in the rainIf she said that's the way it ought to be The Sacrifice ~ Dolly PartonSacrifice ~ Elton John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 You sheltered me from harmKept me warm, kept me warmYou gave my life to meSet me free, set me freeThe finest years I ever knewWere all the years I had with youAnd I would give anything I ownGive up my life, my heart, my homeI would give everything I ownJust to have you back againYou taught me how to loveWhat it's of, what it's ofYou never said too much But still you showed the wayAnd I knew from watching youNobody else could ever knowThe part of me that can't let goAnd I would give anything I ownGive up my life, my heart, my homeI would give everything I ownJust to have you back againIs there someone you knowYou're loving them soBut taking them all for grantedYou may lose them one daySomeone takes them awayAnd they don't hear the words you long to sayI would give anything I ownGive up my life, my heart, my homeI would give everything I ownJust to have you back againJust to touch you once again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
