..Not from Dusty's catalogue this time... but from any other song you care to mention.
I was listening to Will Young's 'Leave Right Now' song before..and I liked the line..
(Speaking of avoiding a relationship)
"But if I lose the highs, at least I'm spared the lows"..
On a lighter note, the fab line:
'It doesn't matter what you wear, just as long as you are there'
From Martha's great 'Dancing In The Street'...

We will cross a rainbow
To a place where we'll be free
Where he'll give his love to me
So I wait for the day
When he takes me away to
Paradise.

You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got
no secrets to conceal.

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you
God Only Knows- The Beach Boys

Do you ever get that feeling and wanna kiss and hug her? Do it now -
tell her you love her.
Don't do to your mom what I did to mine.
She grew so lonely in the end. The angels picked her for a friend.

'No More 'I Love You's'
the language is leaving me.
No More 'I Love You's'
the language is leaving me in silence.
No More 'I Love You's'
changes are shifting outside the world.'

Some great lyrics here:
Spookily, I was gonna quote the Queen one Dave and The Shangrila one Brian...
"I don't want clever conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just need someone that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are."
Just The Way You Are.. Billy Joel.

"Go out with you?....why not,
Do I like to dance?...course
Take a walk along the beach tonight?..I'd love too
Don't try to touch me..don't try to touch me
Cause that will never happen again...shall we dance?"
from the truly FABULOUS 'Past, present & future' by the
Shangri-Las

Well what color are his eyes?
I don't know he's always wearing shades
Is he tall? Well, I've got to look up
Yeah? Well I hear he's bad
Mmm he's good bad, but he's not evil.

Sometimes I get to feelin'
I was back in the old days - long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect - you know?
The days were endless, we were crazy - we were young
The sun was always shinin' - we just lived for fun
these are the days of our lives- Queen

to never have sunlight on your face.
A beautiful face without a name, for so long
a beautiful smile to hide the pain...'

The sun and the moon take turns in the sky
The days drift on by too soon
The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist
Far away is June.
Lovely poetry, you can just picture each word in your head. One of Dusty's best songs!

War, what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing...
WAR! It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker,
War! It's got one friend that's the undertaker.
War!~ Edwin Starr.

Excerpts from the Cole Porter songbook (got quickly from the internet):
It's De-Lovely
It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious,
It's dilemma, it's de limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely.
Everytime We Say Goodbye
When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it,
There's no love song finer, but how the strange the change,
from major to minor,
Every time we say goodbye.
And the best one is 'You're The Top'
You're the top, you're the Colosseum,
You're the top, you're the Louvre Museum,
You're a melody from a symphony by Strauss,
You're a Bendel bonnet, a Shakespeare sonnet, you're Mickey Mouse.
You're the Nile, you're the Tower of Pisa,
You're the smile on the Mona Lisa,
I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop,
But if baby I'm the bottom, you're the top......
....You're the top, You're an Arrow collar.
You're the top, You're a Coolidge dollar.
You're the nimble tread of the feet of Fred
Astaire.
You're an O'Neill drama, You're Whistler's mama,
You're Camembert.
You're a rose; You're Inferno's Dante,
You're the nose of the great Durante.
I'm just in the way, as the French would say 'de trop'
But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
You're the top.
You're the top, You're a Waldorf salad.
You're the top, You're a Berlin ballad.
You're the baby grand of a lady and a gent,
You're an old Dutch master, You're Mrs Astor,
You're Pepsodent.
You're romance, You're the steppes of Russia,
You're the pants on a Roxy usher.
I'm a lazy lout, that's just about to stop,
But if baby, I'm the bottom,
You're the top.
