A History of Life.....through Music

Have ya'll been catching the one hit wonders of the 80's on VH1 recently? I have been taken back. 99% of those songs and/or videos I can remember something about my life. A moment. Something fun, something sad, something meaningful. Ya'll know me....if ever anyone ever wants to write a play about my life....it would be a musical!!!!

So, here is just one of the many many one hit wonders that is sticking in my head.....what's one of your favs?




Something in the moonlight catches my eye
The shadow of a lover goes dancing by
Looking for a little bit of love to grow, so
Give me love, give me heart and soul
You never let me cross to the other side now
I'm tied to the hope that you will somehow
Hard on the heels of something more
But I lost your love, heart and soul

The tear in my heart as you walk on by
(more than an ocean)
I feel so low and your head is high
Everything you do convinces me more
(keeps us apart)
Please, give me love, give me heart and soul
Looking to the day when I saw your face
(I feel a tearing in half of my heart)
I wasn't in the running, I wasn't in the race
You move in a way that I've known before
Now I want your love, heart and soul

Tired eyes, tears that dried
(leaving you ain't easy now)
On the bed, on the pillow, where the love has died
(loving you's the harder part)
A turn of the key, through the door you go
(you never want me for myself)
Don't look back, to hurt me more
(now I've needed you right from the very start)
Everything you said was to the point
Can't you try to
(oh won't you even try to)

Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
And don't you make me beg for more
(must I beg you)
Give a sign, I need to know
A little bit of heart and soul

Walking on the water, walking on the air
(a walk on the water)
That was the heart of the love we shared
Do you keep secret left untold
(is all that I need)
Can't give love, heart or soul
I used to have a lover with a Midas touch
(but miracles are not happening)
I turned to gold but he turned to dust
Left me for another, I turned to stone
Now give me love, heart and soul

Tired eyes, tears that dried
(living in a fantasy)
On the bed, on the pillow, where you told your lies
(there's never any room to breathe)
A turn of the key, my blood runs cold
(hoping every waking hour)
Don't look back to hurt me more
(you'll turn around and say that we can start)
Everything you did just said it all
Can't you try to
(oh won't you even try to)

Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
And don't you make me beg for more
(must I beg you)
Give a sign, I need to know
A little bit of heart and soul

Somehow, I lost my way
Looking to see something in your eyes
But love will never compromise
Now this is the politics of life, yeah!

Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
And don't you make me beg for more
(must I beg you)
Give a sign, I need to know
A little bit, little bit

Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
And don't you make me beg for more
(must I beg you)
Give a sign, I need to know
A little bit, little bit

Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
Give a little bit of love to grow
Give a little bit of heart and soul
(give a little bit of heart and soul)
And don't you make me beg for more
