1. If to say this bitter night to reexamine me, silence music would be there, to the left to write, that me it could of remaining portion make? I am stirred up thus by vocês; At that it did not arrive more during the long time. So early how much I thought, my innocence was gone. Now I know that the possibility continues. It is, where it found me, when it placed your arms in redor of me. I was not there during more the long time.

If you say goodbye to me tonight
There would be still music left to write
What else could I do ?
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Once I know my innosence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
That's where you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time

If it nominates my name, is as a small conjunct, me is for low on my knees, me, in the hour of midnight, me will take them there can to your energy, right that to believe, I will take a conjunct there vocês.

Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

When you call my name it’s like a little prayer
I’m down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I’ll take you there

I need your love, needs your love, speed of God your loves to me. Only rivers leak to the sea, the sea, to the open arms of the sea. Soupir of only river, period of wait for me, period of wait for me. I capsized the house, period of wait for me.

Oh my love, my darling

A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea, yeah
Lonely rivers sigh 'Wait for me, wait for me'
I'll be coming home, wait for me

For vocês they know of the wells, that an imbecile who plays it cold is it, forming little more cold its world.

Hey Jude, don't be afraid.
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

And live and die a Pirate King.

And it is, it is a glorious thing

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, that's awesome. I only got one... #5 is the Pirate King song from "Pirates of Penzance." I believe the official name is "Better far to live and die."

Got it! Though the title is 'I Am a Pirate King', officially. Or so I was led to believe...

Now I know why I'm glad I didn't use Babelfish when writing tFC... this is so funny! I've no idea what any of them are. Maybe the last one is something from the 'Pirates of Penzance'? That's all I can think of.

Number 2 looks like Madonna's Like a Prayer. 1 & 4 also look familiar.

Well, I'll join with KCher in recognizing #5. Number three... I can feel its shape in the back of my mind, and it's so frustrating! I know it, but I just can't quite make it happen. I've tried to make it everything from Croce's "Time in a Bottle" to 's "Into the Future" to the Dixie Chicks' "Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)", and nothing's quite making it.
