Musical monday #29

Wow we're nearing #30. Last week's collaboration with Elie's Expositions was a lot of fun and we plan to collaborate again for #31. Elie and I enjoyed working together. Did that make for a better quiz? Let us know!

You know the drill, no cheating and using Google or some other search engine, (even though your not-so-humble servant may indulge such crutches) and figure out the songs and the theme of the week. No prizes except the satisfaction of knowing that you can still remember the songs of your youth.

As is sometimes the case, the gaps are significant.

1) She said she believes in Robin Hood
2) If there was A grand canyon, She could fill it up with the lies he's told her

3) His bow tie is really a camera
4) For this is not a miracle

5) Your mommy don't mind, If we have another dance
6) Don't you even try tellin' me that you really don't want it to end this way

7) Til the stars fall from the sky
8) that's when she told me a story 'bout free milk and a cow

9) (Silly boy) then she said to my surprise
10) Misjudged your limits, Pushed you too far

11) Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
12) Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat

13) He's in love don't stand in his way
14) I ain't talkin' no high heel

15) You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen
16) Because I come from the land of plenty

17) We could float among the stars together, you and I
18) I used to drive you to work in the morning

19) Anything you want...we can make it happen
20) Each moment with you, Is just like a dream to me

21) Why do birds suddenly appear
22) Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?

23) If you wake up and dont want to smile
24) But this time before you run to her

25) Here come old flattop
26) I get so shaky and I feel so weak

27) But Ive never caught a glimpse of how the others must see the faker
28) You always won every time you placed a bet

29) You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
30) Seasons change and so did I

31) My suitcase and guitar in hand
32) Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins

33) When I'm with you, it doesn't matter where we are
34) Ride the king's highway, baby
