I think we're alone now
there doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
the beating of our hearts is the only sound
- Tommy James & the Shondells (or, Tiffany)
one fron louis or the flaming lips, take your pick
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I believe in example I believe my throat hurts
Example is the checker to the key I believe my humor's wearing thin
And I believe the poles are shifting I believe my shirt is wearing thin
And change is what I believe in.
Hi stand up for pessimism and djjd, and thanks for joining in.
I like playing this game because it reminds me of songs that I've forgotten and introduces me to new songs - or their lyrics, anyway. Thank you all for helping!
Don't believe in fear
Don't believe in faith
Don't believe in anything
That you can't break
--Garbage (Stupid Girl)
I believe in miracles
Where you from
You sexy thing
I believe in miracles
Since you came along
You sexy thing
--Hot Chocolate (You Sexy Thing)
Once beneath the stars
The universe was ours
Love was all we knew
And all I knew was you
I wonder if you know
I wonder if you think about it
Once upon a time
In your wildest dreams
--Moody Blues (Your Wildest Dreams
As in life, I'm having a harder time with believing than with thinking....
Ohhhh Frankie!
Now I'm really in the mood to drag out some Sinatra - if only the rest of the house would just wake up!
I recall these lyrics but can't place them - maybe you all can help:
How do I know my youth is all spent?
My get up and go, has got up and went
But in spite of it all I'm able to grin
And think of the places my get up has been
I'm thinking maybe Pete Seeger but I really don't know....
Mr. Big Stuff

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in Yesterday
That is such a beautiful song! Thanks for the memory nudge, edgar.
And when I told them how beautiful you are
They didn't believe me. They didn't believe me
Your lips, your eyes, your cheeks, your hair.
Are a class beyond compare
You're the loveliest girl that one could see
And when I tell them
And I'm certainly goin' to tell them
That I'm the man whose wife one day you'll be
They'll never believe me. They'll never believe me
That from this great big world you've chosen me
Did you write the book of love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
Then you can teach me to dance real slow
Who's that first one by edgar? Its very pretty.
It was recorded by a great number of artists, mainly in the 1950s. It's probably from a Broadway play.
I believe in you even through the tears and the laughter,
I believe in you even though we be apart.
I believe in you even on the morning after.
Oh, when the dawn is nearing
Oh, when the night is disappearing
Oh, this feeling is still here in my heart
Answer me, oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please, answer me sweetheart
You were mine yesterday
I belived that love was here to stay
Will you tell me where I've gone astray
Please, answer me my love
She's been gone away too long
In fact eight weeks tonight
Don't ya think I've got a right to cry
She just walked right out the door
She didn't say goodbye
Ah, don't you think I've got a right to cry
I get so warm when you touch my cheek
You thrill me so much that I can hardly speak
Love me honey tell me you're mine
Doncha' think it's time
Doncha' think it's time
Doncha' think it's time
Doncha' think it's time
edgar, you ole' romantic! I'm loving all these love songs.
