I have laboured so much, clocking in, a full working day, and to what end?
Please relate to me what it is I possess.

I have a notion that hours, minutes and seconds are creating a physical drag upon me
I fear I shall impact the roof or, alternatively, wreak havoc and destruction upon my home city.

Bolded line = "I've been working so hard, [punching?] in, eight hours, for what? Please tell me what I've got."

Last line jogged my memory for sure. Look Ma, no googlin'.

Kenny Loggins - "Footloose"

Round 11

Song 1

As the sun rises, soft-voiced words pertaining to those in amorous attraction asleep
Proceed past me like elements of a storm as I behold your face
I retain a grip upon the entirety of your physical form
And perceive each motion created by you
When you speak the words are soft and soothing
Affection which it would be hard for me to abandon.

For my role is to be the girl you possess
And yours is to be the male portion of that couple
Any time you stretch out your hand to me I will endeavour as hard as I am able to produce my best effect.

Answer: "The Power of Love" by Jennifer Rush

Song 2

It was previously my belief that you had affection for me, but that belief has now been confirmed
And I find it difficult to be patient, awaiting all the time a rap upon the portal of my home
Whenever the post arrives I must restrain myself
As I am anticipating with great excitement that day when you appear at my door.

Answer: "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves

Song 3

On this night things are extremely well defined as we repose together in this place
I would like to have a long conversation with you.
I have no wish to depart from you, it would not be my intention you should be deprived of my company.
There are occasions when my memory fails me and I utter words which later I might wish I had not
It gives me pain inside to observe tears in your eyes
I have no wish to depart from you, I feel I would be helpless solo in the world.

Answer: "Glory of Love" by Peter Cetera

Song 4

My darling, I find it hard to comprehend how it is we are unable to remain joined
And this occasion may, I fear, be the final one, if I do not clarify how much I require your company.

ANSWER: "Broken Wings" by Mr. Mister

Song 5

Is there, after all, anyone who has knowledge of the future
In this world with a low survival rating for certain internal organs?
The sum of my knowledge is my own emotions which are genuine and which I do not allow to die.
It's quite a distance to go and there are high and tall obstacles in our way
Yet each twenty-four hours we ascend another stair.

Answer: "Up Where We Belong" by Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes

Song 6

On occasion I'm inclined to believe it's necessary for me to depart in haste
Necessary to depart in haste to avoid the stress you put on my heart.
The affection between the two of appears directionless
And having sacrificed my existence I find it hard to attain rest, moving this way and that in my bed.
Previously, I hastened towards you, now I hasten away from you
Affection you offer such as this, impure and damaged
I arranged to convey in your direction all that a young man could make yours
Deprive me of my sadness and which is more, much more than that...

Answer: "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell

Celine Dion (yikes) - "Power of Love"

Bolded = "'Cause I am your lady / And you are my man / Whenever you reach for me / I'll do all that I can"

And yikes again, Celine. :rolleyes:

Goddamn it woman! Stop! You think I'm made of rounds?? :yikes:

Actually "The Power of Love" is a Jennifer Rush song, she was the one who had the number one with it. Celine can bite me. But well done; three in a row. Mutter mutter grumble...

That's a lovely piece of play there by ribbons to get the treble top :). (bit of darts commentary)

Coming up the right flank with Song 2.
