It isn't your sweet conversation that brings this sensation, oh no-it's just the nearness of you. When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me, all my wildest dreams come true. I need no soft lights to enchant me if you'll only grant me the right to hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night the nearness of you." =================================== =================================== You're turn, Krys! ************************************************************************ [can't clear out the above text] When your down and troubled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was played on album oriented stations so that counts. I remember it I just can't think of the song right now

Don't know the title but then I never did like the stones to much. unless it was covered by Flying Burrito brothers also which would make it dead flowers but I think that's another song.

And when I speak of you I see envy in other men's eyes,
And I'm well aware of what's on their minds.
They pretend to be my friend, when all the time
They long to persuade you from my side.
They'd give the world and all they own
For just one moment we have known.

In you I have what other men long for.
All men need someone to worship and adore,
That's why I treasure you and place you high above,
For the only joy in life is to be loved.

This will probably be a stumper, but who knows?
Being alone at night makes me sad, girl
Yeah, it brings me down all right
Tossing and turning and freezing and burning
And crying all through the night.
