Song of Songs

A poem composed of recognizable lines from popular songs

I've always wanted to make one of these poems, it crystallized in two days!

When I saw her standing there

With drops of Jupiter in her hair

I think I love her from head to toe

Bus stays bus goes she stays love grows

Under the boardwalk

*****

Are you going to Scarborough Faire?

Does anybody really care?

Do ya, do ya want my love?

Floating like the heavens above

*****

Come with me to the sea of love

I'll be the hero you're dreaming of

It's so hard to say goodbye

Forget the sun in his jealous sky

In your wildest dreams

*****

Should I stay or should I go?

Alone in a world so cold?

Can you feel the love tonight?

Will you still love me tomorrow?

*****

What becomes of the broken hearted?

I never promised you a rose garden

*****

Let's waste time chasing cars

And now let's only eat guitars

And let your hair fall all around me

Until the sky falls down on me

*****

Do you know the way to San Jose?

Do you really want to hurt me?

Why do I find it hard to write the next line?

You're out of touch, I'm out of time
