Bryan Adams – It’s Only Love – 1984

When the feelin’ is ended
There ain’t no use pretendin’
Don’t ya worry it’s only love

When your world has been shattered
Ain’t nothin’ else matters
It ain’t over it’s only love
And that’s all ya
When your heart has been broken
Hard words have been spoken
It ain’t easy but it’s only love

And if your life ain’t worth livin’
And you’re ready to give in
Just remember that it’s only love

Only love
You can live without the aggravation
Ya gotta wanna win ya gotta wanna win

You keep lookin’ back in desperation
Over and over and over again

Yeah yeah
It’s only love baby
Yeah, hey
Ooh baby baby, it’s only love, love, love
Love love love
When your world is shattered
Ain’t nothin’ else matters
It ain’t over it’s only love

If your life ain’t worth livin’
And you’re ready to give in
Just remember that it’s only love
Yeah, that’s all

Yeah it ain’t easy baby
But it’s only love and that’s all

I Love My 80’s: Black – Wonderful Life + Lyrics

The classic 1987 song. I was so into this song for some reason. I wish iPod came out when I was seven. I’d be like having this song on repeat. Another great hit.

Part of “I Love My 80’s”

Here I go out to see again
the sunshine fills my hair
and dreams hang in the air
Gulls in the sky and in my blue eyes
you know it feels unfair
there’s magic everywhere

Look at me standing
here on my own again
up straight in the sunshine

No need to run and hide
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life

Sun in your eyes
the heat is in your hair
they seem to hate you
because you’re there
and I need a friend
Oh, I need a friend
to make me happy
not stand here on my own

Look at me standing

here on my own again
up straight in the sunshine

No need to run and hide
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life

I need a friend
oh, I need friend
to make me happy
not so alone…….
Look at me here
here on my own again
up straight in the sunshine

No need to run and hide
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to laugh and cry
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life

No need to run and hide
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life
No need to run and hide
it’s a wonderful, wonderful life
wonderful life, wonderful life

I Love My 80’s: Madonna – Pray for Spanish Eyes + Lyrics

Another often played B-side hit from Madonna. This song was released in 1989 as a B-side of “Oh Father,” but it got played pretty often as well as its A-side.

Part of “I Love My 80’s”

I know for sure his heart is here with me
Though I wish him back, I know he cannot see
My hands trembling, I know he hears me sing

I light this candle and watch it throw
Tears on my pillow
And if there is a Christ, he’ll come tonight
To pray for Spanish eyes
And if I have nothing left to show
Tears on my pillow
What kind of life is this if God exists
Then help me pray for Spanish eyes

He had to fight like all the rest
In the barrio all the streets are paved with fear
I don’t understand; at least he was a man

How many lives will they have to take?
How much heartache?
How many suns will they have to burn?
Spanish eyes
When will they ever learn?

You were not the Maravilla in our minds
We were proud to fight but we cannot win this blind
Stand your guns against the wall
Who’s next in line to fall

Tus lagrimas de tristeza
No me dejan olvidarte
Your tears of sadness
Will not let me forget you

I Love My 80’s: Belinda Carlisle – Circle In The Sand + Lyrics

This track was a big hit and was released when I was 8! It’s been 20 friggin years already.

Part of “I Love My 80’s”

Sundown all around
Walking thru the summer’s end
Waves crash baby, don’t look back
I won’t walk away again

Oh, baby, anywhere you go,
We are bound together
I begin, baby, where you end
Some things are forever!

Circle in the sand
‘Round and ’round
Never ending love is what we’ve found
And you complete the heart of me
Our love is all we need
Circle in the sand

Cold wind, tide moves in
Shiver in the salty air
Day breaks, my heart aches
I will wait for you right here

Oh, baby when you look for me
Can you see forever ?
I begin baby, where you end
We belong together

Circle in the sand
‘Round and ’round
Rising of the moon as the sun goes down
And you complete the heart of me
Our love is all we need
Circle in the sand
Circle in the sand

Baby can you hear me ?
Can you hear me calling ?
