SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!
The Song Challenge: Love
And Spots!! Well, Challenge!rs -- Spring has sprung for most of us, and of course, at this time of year, every species experiences a little flutter of the heart and then, well, instinct takes over...
Perhaps inspired by his own 'instincts', our own Hyperabid has suggested the Challenge! topic of "first crushes and the opposite sex moving from pain in the *rse to "Why has God blessed me with a sex drive and acne at the same time!??".
An excellent and timely suggestion. So, there you go Challenge!rs -- Songs about 'your first love and/or crush'.
Now I know we've all gone through this -- let's see what you can put to a tune!
Ballad of Rejection Amergin by Amergin
I see her smile
In my dreams
I hear her laughter
And what it means
I watch her eyes
Look into mine
To touch those lips
My heart does pine.
We talk for hours
Into the night
I watch her face
By the streetlight
As we smoke
Our cherries bright
Her face it glows
Like candlelight
Now I am walking
On the rail ties
Singing to myself
To kill the sighs
Of being alone
Because you see
Her bright eyes
Never shine on me
So I am drunk today
I am seldom sober
I stagger on
The constant rover
From bar to bar
In this great town
But I am sick now
So lay me down
