song guessing game

Ah, so we all like guessing songs. Here’s my contribution: a “poem” containing lovely snippets I like from ten different songs. It’s not easy to guess them all! Whoever manages to wins exclusively nothing at all from me, ha!

As around the sun the earth knows she’s revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may


Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease

City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

In her strawberry eyes, the way she sees you signifies
That she's susceptible to your velvet lies


Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
But I... I took the sweet life, I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet


Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?


The whispers in the morning of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling by like thunder now, as I look in your eyes


You asked me to enter, and then you made me crawl.
And I can’t be holding on to what you’ve got, when all you’ve got is hurt.

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

These are the days that bring new meaning
I feel the stillness of the sun, and I feel fine
