You seem so sad...why not smile

I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside
I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m sorry that I made you cry
Oh no, I didn’t want to hurt you
I’m just a jealous guy

John Lennon

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a lover, and mother, what a lover, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning, kick me in the head
Oh, Maggie, I couldn’t have tried any more

  • Rod Stewart

And here’s to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know
Whoa, whoa, whoa
God bless you, please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
Hey, hey, hey
Hide it in a hiding place where no one ever goes
Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes
It’s a little secret, just the Robinson’s affair
Most of all, you’ve got to hide it from the kids

Simon & Garfunkel

Nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
Got nowhere to run to, baby
Nowhere to hide
It’s not love I’m a-running from
Just the heartbreak I know will come
'Cause I know you’re no good for me
But you’ve become a part of me

  • Martha and the Vandellas (Holland–Dozier–Holland)

Slow down sweet talkin’ woman (slow down)
You’ve got me runnin’, you’ve got me searchin’
Hold on (hold on), sweet talkin’ lover hold on
It’s so sad if that’s the way it’s over

ELO

I said slow don’t go so fast
Don’t you think that love can last
She said love, Lord above
Now you’re tryin’ to trick me in love

Time to walk, time to run
Time to aim your arrows at the sun

Take it easy, baby
Take it as it comes
Don’t move too fast
If you want your love to last
You’ve been moving much too fast

(the Doors)

For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five-storey fire as you came
Love is a losing game

Amy Winehouse

Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?
'Cause baby I’m just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta know how it feels
I want to know if love is wild, babe
I want to know if love is real
Oh, can you show me?

Bruce Springsteen

It’s all wrong, but it’s alright
The way that you treat me baby
Once I was strong but I lost the fight
You won’t find a better loser

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I’d gladly do it because
I don’t want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don’t want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

(Derek and the Dominos)

Pull the string and I’ll wink at you, I’m your puppet
I’ll do funny things if you want me to, I’m your puppet
I’m yours to have and to hold
Darling you’ve got full control of your puppet
Pull another string and I’ll kiss your lips, I’m your puppet
Snap your finger and I’ll turn you some flips, I’m your puppet

Baby, you’re much too fast
Little red Corvette
You need to find a love that’s gonna last

  • Prince

Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there’s nothing else could set fire to this town
There’s no change, there’s no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won’t be around

  • Cold Chisel

Red light across the grey ocean
It’s a fire on the bay
Little town right on the water
Burning down, burning down again

(Catie Curtis)

Please don’t ever let me down
'Cause you know I’m not so sure
Do I have the speed to carry on
Burn you out of my mind, I know
You’re a flame that never fades
Jungle red’s a deadly shade
Both ends burning, will the fires keep
Somewhere deep in my soul tonight

  • Roxy Music

I am the God of Hellfire and I bring you
Fire, I’ll take you to burn
Fire, I’ll take you to learn
I’ll see you burn
You fought hard and you saved and earned
But all of it’s going to burn

The Crazy World of Arthur Brown

Messed up post. Deleted.

You don’t care for me
I don’t care about that
You got a new fool, ha!
I like it like that
I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire

Jimi Hendrix

Whatever it is you might think you have
You have nothing to lose
Through every dead and living thing
Time runs like a fuse
And the fuse is burning
And the earth is turning…

  • Jackson Browne

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here, the day is gone
And the world spins madly on
I thought of you and where you’d gone
And the world spins madly on

(the Weepies)

And I was wondering where you were
You know you looked just like a baby
Fast asleep in this dangerous world.
Every star was shining brightly
Just like a million years before.
And we were feeling very small
Underneath the universe
