What song lyrics transport you to a different time and place?

Here's my answer:





Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a dodge


Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain

What song lyrics transport you to a different time and place?
Standin' on your mama's porch


You told me that you'd wait forever


Oh and when you held my hand


I knew that it was now or never


Those were the best days of my life





Back in the summer of '69

Later: "I touch no one and no one touches me. I am a rock. I am an island."





I had a rather lonely childhood and teen years as well.
Reply:Against the wind, night moves, fire lake, by Seger, Ain't even done with the night, by Mellencamp, and Don McLeans American Pir, Starry starry night also by McLean. One of my favorites that came out when I was about 13 by Steve Miller Band. The Joker.
Reply:magic carpet ride, anything by pink floyd, tea for the tillerman....
Reply:Legend of a Mind (Timothy Leary's Dead!) by the Moody blues. It gives me a feel of what the 60's were really like when there was so much hope for change. Halcyon days! I was just a young whelp at the time. But I discovered Moody Blues Caught Live +5 when I was wandering around Germany in the early 80's. 'Legend' is one of many great songs on that one. It really takes me back.

Reply:Mine is:





Hello.


Is there anybody in there?


Just nod if you can hear me.


Is there anyone home?





Come on, now.


I hear youre feeling down.


Well I can ease your pain,


Get you on your feet again.





Relax.


I need some information first.


Just the basic facts:


Can you show me where it hurts?





There is no pain, you are receding.


A distant ships smoke on the horizon.


You are only coming through in waves.


Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.


When I was a child I had a fever.


My hands felt just like two balloons.


Now I got that feeling once again.


I cant explain, you would not understand.


This is not how I am.


I have become comfortably numb.





Ok.


Just a little pinprick. [ping]


Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!


But you may feel a little sick.





Can you stand up?


I do believe its working. good.


Thatll keep you going for the show.


Come on its time to go.





There is no pain, you are receding.


A distant ships smoke on the horizon.


You are only coming through in waves.


Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.


When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,


Out of the corner of my eye.


I turned to look but it was gone.


I cannot put my finger on it now.


The child is grown, the dream is gone.


I have become comfortably numb.
Reply:I wish I was like you


Easily amused


Find my nest of salt


Everything is my fault


I'll take all the blame


Aqua seafoam shame


Sunburn with freezer burn


Choking on the ashes of her enemy
Reply:Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby...


you said you'd be coming back this way again.
Reply:You're always brilliant in the morning


Smoking your cigarettes


and talking


over coffee


On philosophies and art, Baroque


Do you love Mozart?


And you'd speak of your loved ones


As i clumsily strummed my guitar...
