It's another Tuesday Wordplay, with an added three bonus songs for you to all miss! Enjoy!

1 point for the title, 1 point for the artist...


1. Since you`ve gone
I`ve been lost without a trace
I dream at night
I can only see your face

2. Through the hourglass, I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed, I called you
And turned to hear you say

3. You`re thinking up your white lies
You`re putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you`re coming home
But you won`t say when

4. We can go dancing, we can go walking
As long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking
Get to know you better

5. At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.

6. So come on baby, won't you show some class
Why you want to move so fast?

7. Oh, the things that you say
Is it a life or just to
Play my worries away
You're all the things
I've got to remember

8. Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Blowing like a breeze

9. Well fight the powers that be just
Don't pick our destiny cause
You don't know us, you don't belong

10. Anticipation's
Running through me
Let's find the key and turn this engine on

11. I kept my cool, I ain`t no fool
Let me tell you what happened then
I packed some clothes
And I walked out
And I ain`t going back again

12. But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same

13. Now I'm not like this
I'm really kind of shy
But I get this feeling
Whenever you walk by

14. Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could have been
Oh, what you might have been,
If you'd had more time.

15. Right? You know you laughed
I heard you laugh, you laughed
You laughed and laughed and then you left
But now you know I'm utterly mad

And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.

Can't Take My Eyes off You - Muse


6. So come on baby, won't you show some class
Why you want to move so fast?

Take Off - The McKenzie Brothers

Is it a life or just to
Play my worries away
You're all the things
I've got to remember

8. Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Blowing like a breeze

And I walked out
And I ain`t going back again

12. But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same

But I get this feeling
Whenever you walk by

Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could have been
Oh, what you might have been,
If you'd had more time.

I heard you laugh, you laughed
You laughed and laughed and then you left
But now you know I'm utterly mad

1. Since you`ve gone
I`ve been lost without a trace
I dream at night
I can only see your face
Every Breath You Take - Police

2. Through the hourglass, I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed, I called you
And turned to hear you say
Take My Breath Away - Berlin (Frank noticed each of the first two songs contained both "take" and "breath," and that was intentional on my part. I had Rex Smith's "You Take My Breath Away" slotted third until I realized I couldn't get a good lyric snippet from it...)

3. You`re thinking up your white lies
You`re putting on your bedroom eyes
You say you`re coming home
But you won`t say when
Take It On The Run - REO Speedwagon

4. We can go dancing, we can go walking
As long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking
Get to know you better
Take a Chance on Me - ABBA

5. At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You - Franki Valli & the Four Seasons (And of course, Muse....)

6. So come on baby, won't you show some class
Why you want to move so fast?
We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off - Jermaine Stewart

7. Oh, the things that you say
Is it a life or just to
Play my worries away
You're all the things
I've got to remember
Take On Me - A-ha (The shortest title in this game by far... most "take" songs apparently have very wordy titles...)

8. Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Blowing like a breeze
Take Me Home, Country Roads - John Denver

9. Well fight the powers that be just
Don't pick our destiny cause
You don't know us, you don't belong
We're Not Gonna Take It - Twisted Sister

10. Anticipation's
Running through me
Let's find the key and turn this engine on
Take Me Home Tonight - Eddie Money w/ Ronniw Spector

11. I kept my cool, I ain`t no fool
Let me tell you what happened then
I packed some clothes
And I walked out
And I ain`t going back again
Take a Letter Maria - RB Greaves

12. But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same
Take It To The Limit - Eagles

13. Now I'm not like this
I'm really kind of shy
But I get this feeling
Whenever you walk by
Let Me Take You Home Tonight - Boston (One of their non-hits that's a standard of classic rock radio...)

14. Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years and see what you could have been
Oh, what you might have been,
If you'd had more time.
Take the Long Way Home - Supertramp

15. Right? You know you laughed
I heard you laugh, you laughed
You laughed and laughed and then you left
But now you know I'm utterly mad
They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha Haa! (Or Something Like That) - Napoleon XIV

The more generic I think the word is, the better the Image Bonus entries seem! I think you about covered it all, but the one that almost made me do a spit take belonged to elwood. Take my 5 points, please!
