mermista Posted September 28, 2004 Report Posted September 28, 2004 "Ghost" by the Indigo Girls Dark and dangerous like a secret, that's whispered in a hush When I wake the things I dreamt about you last night make me blush Then you kiss me like a lover, and you sting me like a viper I will follow to the river, play your memory like the piper And I feel it like a sickness, how this love is killing me But I'd walk into the fingers of your fire willingly And dance the edge of sanity, I've never been this close In love with your ghost Now I see a face before me that would launch a thousand ships To bring your heart back to my island, as the sand beneath me slips 'Cause I burn up in your presence, and I know now how it feels To be weakened like Achilles, with you always at my heels My bitter pill to swallow is the silence that I keep It poisons me, I can't swim free, the river is too deep Though I'm baptised by your touch, I am no worse at most In love with your ghost
ImThatGuyToo Posted October 1, 2004 Report Posted October 1, 2004 Frank Sinatra- I Get A Kick Out of You I never realized that this song was about a love from afar, but one day I was paying attention to the lyrics and he says: "I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me I get a kick though it's clear to me that you obviously do not adore me" Interesting, eh?
XXX Posted October 2, 2004 Report Posted October 2, 2004 That Sinatra tune is awesome. I'm listenin' to some Sinatra right now. All that Jazzy/Bluesy stuff is tailored for hopeless romantics
Eggplant Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 I would say.... "Secret" by Maroon5 "A Murder of One" by Counting Crows
behindblueeyez Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 I think Rod Stewart had a few like that, but I can't remember any at the moment. And, kinda of a stretch, "I Know You're Out There Somehwere" by The Moody Blues. :guitar:
XXX Posted October 5, 2004 Report Posted October 5, 2004 I think Rod Stewart had a few like that, but I can't remember any at the moment. "Some Guys Have All The Luck" is sort of like that
MindCrime Posted October 5, 2004 Report Posted October 5, 2004 "Some Guys Have All The Luck" is sort of like that I thought it was more about him stalking her or bothering her, and feeling unlucky because she has other guys. Like in the lyrics "I called you collect, you didn't accept, you had nothing to say"
gypsygirl Posted October 5, 2004 Report Posted October 5, 2004 The ultimate is Secret smile by semisonic.
StarfieldFan Posted October 5, 2004 Report Posted October 5, 2004 Amanda by Boston (Third Stage) would work too. Although he tells her, its how he can't hold it in any longer :guitar:

scoobydoobie Posted October 6, 2004 Report Posted October 6, 2004 Garth Brooks/ Thunder Rolls...but he got caught. Jewel/ Foolish games. These foolish games are tearing me apart You thoughtless words are breaking my heart You're breaking my heart. It wasn't the words of the song, but what was written on her back in the video "He said I feel like home" Wow
Earth-Angel Posted October 6, 2004 Report Posted October 6, 2004 I thought Foolish Games was about her having relationship problems or she was with him but he'd moved on :: I haven't seen the music vid, so that's cleared it up - thanks Scoobie!
MindCrime Posted October 6, 2004 Report Posted October 6, 2004 Foghat ? Boogie Motel Jackson Browne ? Tender is the Night Isley Brothers ? Secret Lover R.Kelly ? Downlow Cliff Richard ? She?s a Gypsy
Jenny Posted October 6, 2004 Report Posted October 6, 2004 I think Rod Stewart had a few like that, but I can't remember any at the moment. Infatuation----an early '80's song by Rod Stewart
golden_ann Posted October 7, 2004 Report Posted October 7, 2004 Oh, yeah, and maybe I Stand Accused, by Isaac Hayes. He holds it in but then he sits her down and finally tells her.LMAO he goes this extreme 'round about way to do it, saying he's not too good with words, but then he raps to her for like almost ten minutes before he finally starts to sing!
ed32222 Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 There is an oldie by Dion.....called Noone Knows"....slow song,danceable.I have it in my computer ::
sherb Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 It is more about lust than love, but I'd suggest Teacher I Need You by Elton John.
OLD 55 Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 "Living next door to Alice"I don´t know who sings this one, I wonder even if it´s "Alice"... UK band Smokie (lead singer Chris Norman). Original version by Australian trio New World. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Edna !
Susiedoc Posted December 22, 2004 Report Posted December 22, 2004 Hi -- Here are a few more songs for you. . . "Midnight Confessions," by the Grass Roots. . . "Part-Time Lover," by Stevie Wonder. Also, "Me and Mrs. Jones," by Billy Paul is good (". . .we both know that it's wrong, but it's much too strong. . .we gotta be extra careful, that we don't build our hopes up too high. . .it hurts so much, it hurts so much inside. Now she'll go her way and I'll go mine, tomorrow we'll meet the same place the same time. . .) and, perhaps the best one. . ."If Loving You is Wrong," by Luther Ingram. . . If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right If being right means being without u I'd rather live a wrong doing life Your mama and daddy say it's a shame It's a downright disgrace Long as I got u by my side I don't care what your people say. Your friends tell u there's no future In loving a married man If I can't see u when I want I'll see u when I can. If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right. Am I wrong to fall so deeply in love with u knowing I got a wife and two little children depending on me too And am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch knowing I got someone else at home who needs me just as much. And are u wrong to give your love to a married man And am I wrong for trying to hold on to the best thing I ever had If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right. Are u wrong to give your love to a married man And am I wrong for trying to hold on to the best thing I ever had. If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right If loving u is wrong, I don't want to be right. I don't want to be right if it means sleeping alone at night I don't want to be right if it means coming home at night. I don't wanna, I don't wanna I don't wanna never,never be right
edna Posted December 22, 2004 Report Posted December 22, 2004 "Lovesick Blues", Arlo Guthrie. Well, she left him, it´s not secretly but maybe it helps...
RonJonSurfer Posted December 22, 2004 Report Posted December 22, 2004 Midnight Confession is perfect. How about "Have You Ever Loved a Woman", Derek and the Dominos. "Don't Stand So Close To Me", The Police. "My Best Friend's Girl" , the Cars. ::
Foxy Posted January 4, 2005 Report Posted January 4, 2005 Will you by Hazel O'Connor, beautiful song....
