    last clues...The entire song added except chorus and title 2 and 3

    ARETHA FRANKLYN: "Chian Of Fools" "Who's Zoooomin' Who'

    7) There's a little girl out lyin' on her own
    She's got a broken heart
    She's not the kind to take you down for long
    She knows and plays it smart


    And if she's comin' she's shown no mark
    She's heard no whistle blowin' from the dark
    She feels like leavin' and she don't know why
    Without no bridges she's trapped, so I sigh Title
    CHORUS
    All your life you were on your own

    And if you want you can ride my train
    And soon forget the reason that you're leavin'
    You'll lose yourself and then some time
    Maybe even save yourself some grievin' Title
    CHORUS
    All your life you were on your own

    ****************************

    10) Hush now don't you cry
    Wipe away the tear drops from your eye
    You're lying safe in bed
    It was all a bad dream
    Spinning thru your head
    Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
    Of someone close to you leaving the game
    Of life

    So here it is, another chance
    Wide awake, you face the day

    Your dream is over...
    Or has it just begun?

    There's a place I like to hide
    A door way that I run thru in the night
    Relax child, you were there
    But only didn't realize, and you were scared
    It's a place where you will learn
    To face your fears, retrace the years
    And ride the whims of your mind
    Commanding in another world
    Suddenly, you hear and see
    This magic new dimension

    CHORUS

    If you open your mind for me
    You won't rely on open eyes to see
    The walls you built within
    Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
    Living twice at once you learn
    You're some from pain in the dream domain
    A soul set free to fly
    A round trip journey in your head
    Master of illusion, can you realize
    Your dream's alive, you can be the guide but...

    CHORUS

    Plm...

    all of mine with the exception to E were released within the last 10 years. E is bit older but is well known...give a clue....It is a theme song to a very famous movie and I cant think of one person who has never heard it. E is also the only one not considered rock/alternative. The rest of mine are in that genre.

    I have no idea on any of yours....I am trying..they just aren't familiar.

    OK, here are a few that might be challenging:

    1. While the future's there for anyone to change, still you know it seems,
    It would be easier sometimes to change the past.
    2. I am the midnight watchman down at Miller's Tool and Die; I watch the metal rusting, I watch the time go by.
    3. Standing beside you, midwinter's day, hearts beating close together; Wishing that we'd find some way to make this moment last forever.
    4. Known him all my life, and his wife, 'neath the swaying pine, and the clinging vine.

    And finally, but appropriately,

    5. The bricks lay on Grand Street, where the neon madmen climb...

    Boy, Neon

    No.2 sounds so much like the lyric structure of Harry Chapin but, I don't think it's him, yet it sounds so familiar.

    Since I can't figure anything out I think I'll post a few: (all lyrics are approximate)

    (1) Nobody gonna take my car, I,m gonna race it to the ground

    Nobody gonna take my car, it,s gonna break the speed of sound

    Oooooh, It's a kill'n machine, it's got everything.......

    (2) I come from the land of the ice and snow

    Where the midnight breeze and the hot winds blow....

    (3) Now that you have heard these words telling you now, of my state

    I tell you to enjoy life, I wish I could but I'm too late...

    (4) Watch out where the huskies go...(Yea, This is gonna stump ya!)

    (5) Take me across the water

    I got no place to hide

    I done the ranchers daughter

    And I sure did hurt his pride

    (6) And where the hell was Biggles, when you needed him last Saturday...

    (4) Watch out where the huskies go...(Yea, This is gonna stump ya!)

    This one is Yellow Snow, by Frank Zappa (or is that Don't Eat Yellow Snow? I can never remember...)

    And yes, Mac, my #2 above is Harry.

    But what song?
