You got me runnin’, goin’ out of my mind
You got me thinkin’ that I’m wastin’ my time
Don’t bring me down
No, no, no, no, no

A companion unobtrusive
Plays that song that’s so elusive
And the magic music makes your morning mood

‘Cause the sign at the end of the road it says
Next stop, twilight zone
It’s two a.m. (It’s two a.m.)
The fear has gone (The fear has gone)
I’m sittin’ here waitin’ (I’m sittin’ here waitin’)
The gun still warm (The gun still warm)
Maybe my connection is tired of takin’ chances
Golden Earring
I never knew there’d come a day
When I’d be sayin’ to you
“Don’t let this good love slip away

No, said I’d never fall in love again
But it’s real and the feeling comes shining through

Under pressure that brings a building down
Splits a family in two, puts people on streets

Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn’t get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day

Loves horses, and her boyfriend too

And points all her own sitting way up high
Way up firm and high

Only for a moment, and the moment’s gone

All they are is dust in the wind

Nobody on the road, Nobody on the beach. I feel it in the air, The summer's out of reach. Empty lake, empty streets, The sun goes down alone. I'm driving by your house Don't know you're not home.
But I can see you,
Your brown skin shining in the sun.
You got your hair combed back
And your sunglasses on, baby.
Don Henley
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
And I’ve been waiting for this moment, for all my life, oh lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I’ve seen your face before my friend
But I don’t know if you know who I am

REO Speedwagon
I was once out strolling one very hot summer’s day
When I thought I’d lay myself down to rest
In a big field of tall grass
I laid there in the sun and felt it caressing my face
As I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind
War
I must’ve been through about a million girls
I’d love ‘em and I’d leave ‘em alone
I didn’t care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone
But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Fooled around and fell in love
Elvin Bishop
I got a little change in my pocket goin’ jing-a-ling-a-ling
Wants to call you on the telephone baby, a-give you a ring
But each time we talk, I get the same old thing
Always no hug-ee no kiss-ee until I get a weddin’ ring
My honey my baby, don’t put my love upon no shelf
She said don’t hand me no lines and keep your hands to yourself
