The "What Song Does That Line Comes From" Game

[Marty]

A new game, simple rules really, post a line from a song associated with Matt Monro, and then we try to guess the song title. (no search engines or googling to find the answers, unless you're really stuck though) Whoever guesses takes the next go.

And if by chance someone selects a line that comes from a song that has a special meaning for you, then tell us all why.

I'll start off with the line

"Once I thought that you were my true love, your kisses were my very own"

[ROBERT M.]

Quite a hard one to start off with Marty, keep turning the words over and over, but the song just wont come to me, but i'll keep thinking

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Yes, have to admit Robert we struggled with Marty's first song, but we've cracked it. the song is " Have Guitar Will Travel "
So orf we jolly well go !!
Here's one
Nobody Else Ever Loved Me Like This.
You Captured Me From The Start.

[Edgar]

You bring out the best in me.

Can't think at the moment (sick wife) but I'll try later.

( No, that's not a song line!

[ROBERT M.]

Hi Marty and everyone. Were not getting very far with this game at the moment. Shall we start again, but with easier lyrics to get the ball rolling.

A very easy one to start with-

"It might have been in County Down or in New York
or gay Paris or even London town"

My tears will fall now that your gone

[mariana44]

Hi---yes that last one was a bit easier---"Arond the World" I Think.
Here is my one--

"And we were happy, that moment in our lives
And through my sadness,that happiness survives."

[ROBERT M.]

Mariana I think the song is The Precious Moments-
if I am correct, these are my new lyrics, there is a clue on another page-

"Sing it soft and its almost like praying"

My tears will fall now that your gone

[Edgar]

That's "Maria"

With a fine young sonwho will take my place
I'll build a heaven right here on earth with the Lord's good grace"

[mariana44]

Hi Robert---sorry, those words are not from the song "The Precious Moments" Here is a clue--it is a theme from a film, but the film does not have the same title as the song! Marian

[Marian]

Hi Marian, I'm going to confuse everyone now, as it's the other Marian...
I think it's from the film "The Sand Pebbles" and the song is "And we were lovers".

[ROBERT M.]

Edgar, I think ?? the song is- Gonna Build a Mountain.

" Longer than forever is a long long time"

[Marian]

Is it "No one else could love you more" ?

"There isn't anything as wonderful as Spring".

[Edgar]

Correct.

The answer is "More"

"When did she get to be a beauty
When did he grow to be so tall"

[Gray]

Hi Edgar!

You've chosen my fave - the one and only Sunrise Sunset - the most wondeful of renditions by Matt Monro and as I have waffled on in other areas of this forum, the song most likely to leave me with a lump in my throat.

Ok, everyone, try this...

"Always posing, but you love it all,
But you have to learn to act like you're above it all"

Gray

[mariana44]

Hi---firstly to the "other" Marian--well done--it was "And we were Lovers"--one of my favourite songs of Matt.

I think the last one is "If I never write another Song".

My new one is another of my favourites--

"So my darling, if you want me, call me--in the hush of the evening,
When you call me, in the hush of the evening ,I'll rush to my first real romance"
