(not very romantic I admit) or Meat Loaf's "You took the words right out of my mouth - it must have been while you were kissing me". These are just the first two that sprung to mind but there's loads obviously.<BR/><BR/>Good idea for a post, btw.AnneDroidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15381935612631976494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342018740029766616.post-87584645686127272452008-08-29T22:47:00.000-04:002008-08-29T22:47:00.000-04:00Claudia - Who are you again? ;-)Of course I missed...Claudia - Who are you again? ;-)<BR/>Of course I missed you!Mr. Nighttimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09546329409708860876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342018740029766616.post-12451100386285488042008-08-29T19:00:00.000-04:002008-08-29T19:00:00.000-04:00So, um, which one is for me??? ;)Hiya doll!

You know, the ones from the Karate Kid movies.<BR/><BR/>U2 songs that get me: All I Want is You, and Running to Stand Still. The latter is not so much a love song in the traditional sense, but I relate to it. I'm not a drug addict, as the song suggests. I do think it can be interpreted as a love song about despair, and really, who hasn't been there?battlemaidenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00348489084541278061noreply@blogger.com
