Her Man's Been Gone

Close enough, it is from "You Are Forgiven", the last song in "A Quick One While He's Away". "Her Man's Been Gone" is the first song.
 
From the tongues of fire, to the lions of Rome
The light kept getting brighter
Till every ember into a flame had grown
It made the darkness lighter
The world watched and stood amazed
As every evil was defied
They told their story though the demons raged
They were the Children of the Light
 
Ok, I'm stumped! I thought this was from Children of the Rune but I can't recognize the whole thing. Someone else have a go.
 
Christian pop...

Servant: Light Manuevers (1984)

I'll guess and say "We Are The Light"?
 
Here's an ironic attempt to bring this back from christian pop purgatory:

I got two reason why I cry
away each lonely night
The first one's named sweet Ann Marie
and she's my hearts delight
The second one is prison baby
the sheriff's on my trail
and if he catches up with me
I will spend my life in jail.

I just heard a new version by Lyle Lovett, but what is the original?
 
Friend of the Devil--
Grateful Dead


try this one:

"Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas.
We got eighty feet of waterline nicely making way.
In a noisy bar in Avalon, I tried to call you,
But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away."
 
Yaaaayy - one I recognize immediately...

Southern Cross by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young!

Y'all really stumped me on that Christian Rock one.

Here's the next lyrical threat....

All alone, no one cares.
So much to give to you all out there.
Take me now, in your arms.
Let me rest, safe from harm.

Now we are rally getting away from Christian Rock!

A. Judas Priest, Here Come The Tears

Q. Tell Sanchito that if he knows what is good for him he best go run and hide. Daddy's got a new .45.
and I won't think twice to stick that barrel straight down sancho's throat. Believe me when I say that I got somethin for his punk ass.
 
A: Sublime, Santeria
Q: Well you started off with nothing And you're proud that your a self made man!
 
next up:

"There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever"
 
:D That's Suzanne - depends on which version you want though, Leonard Cohen who wrote it or Joan Baez whom I've seen play it in concert more than once.

I grew up with my dad playing that song to me and I still play it to this day.

Here's one of my favs.....

She was workin' in a topless place
And I stopped in for a beer,
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
In the spotlight so clear.

One of my favorite Dylan songs:
Tangled up in blue from the Blood on the tracks album.

Suzanne, the first version of Suzanne that I heard was by Judy Collins. I still love the song, no matter who does it.


and now--try this on for size:

"If you're trav'lin' out west
And you see a dark haired girl
Tell her her love is a'waitin
In the rockies so near"


dayum--leatherbird--you beat me to it....take a turn, and I'll wait one....

Jesus Gave Love Away For Free. My first guitar teacher was a huge Stephen Stills fan. :)

Here's a stumper:

"Six dead horses chase you down
Fourteen guns in your hotel
Thirteen men run after you
Ten million babies your cat gave you"
 
ROFL - From Judy Collins and Steely Dan to Tad - Greasebox? We have truly started sinking. ;)

Let's sink a little lower.....

Fade out baby that's right
No bark and even less bite
Your perfect smile
Betrays your lack of style

A.Motorhead, No Class

Q. In a couple of days they come and
Take me away
But the press let the story leak
And when the radical priest
Come to get me released
We was all on the cover of Newsweek

Paul Simon - Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard

Lyrics:

"For the horse you've grown much fonder
Than for me, that I don't ponder
As the hair of one who bit you
Smiling bite your own self, too"
