Spot those Lyrics

OK this is my play for an ongoing thread that is focused on song lyrics. We had a thread a while back where a number of members revealed that they don't really listen to the lyrics. This thread is likely to reinforce the accuracy of that revelation for those people!

Only rule of the thread....NO GOOGLE!! (it makes it a bit easy)

OK, first one. Song and artist/band please. Here is a snippet of the lyrics. A nice easy one to start!

Swaying to the band, moving like a hammer
She's a miracle man, loving is the ocean

mmm....my quandary is; does nobody know the answer, or is nobody interested :)

Time will tell.

He's Got The Look by Roxette. Only reason I know this is its currently the music to a NZ add, otherwise I doubt I would have got it.

That's a pass Chas. I think it's actually called just "The Look" but good enough!

Well, off to a rip-roaring start. I'll try another:

Came the last night of sadness and it was clear she couldn't go on, then the door was open and the wind appeared

Hey Tony,
Am I waiting for you or are you waiting for me? :laugh: lol
How are you doing this? Assuming I was correct, it's my turn or you're throwing out another?

Hey Craig. That could work (you are correct by the way) but it's just that I am not on here 24 hours a day (only 23...very slack) Stand by for another.....

Here's a new one:

It's up to you
All I can do, I've done
But memories won't go

I thought I was pretty good with lyrics.

So far-- not so good.

I was a sleep during the first couple (which I didn't get) and will pounce on any lyrics if I have actually sung them. Otherwise Hmmmm....
