Subject: Looking for a song

Written By: Gram_Reaper on 09/11/03 at 08:13 p.m.

Its by an 80's group. I can't remember the title and most of the song, but I do remember in the chorus it says something like " If I had wings" it sounds somewhat like a power ballad. If anyone knows what song this is, respond.

Benny Mardones, "Into the Night". . ?

Peaked initially at # 11 in 1980. Then re-issued in 1989 and reached #20.

She's just sixteen years old
Leave her alone, they say
Separated by fools
Who don't know what love is yet
But I want you to know -

CHORUS:
If I could fly
I'd pick you up
I'd take you into the night
And show you a love
Like you've never seen - ever seen.

It's like having a dream
Where nobody has a heart
It's like having it all
And watching it fall apart
And I would wait till the end of time for you
And do it again, it's true
I can't measure my love
There's nothing to compare it to
But I want you to know -

CHORUS

Well...since you're Canadian, and so am I...could it be this:

What Does It Take? - Honeymoon Suite

It goes a little something like this:

If I could grow wings
I would do anything
Just to keep you with me
Can't you see?
If I could fly high
I would give you the sky
Won't you make that mistake
What does it take?

...or words to that effect. It's definitely a power ballad, and in fact, I saw the video for it yesterday on MuchMoreMusic's RetroRequest!!! Where were you? ;D

I'm a HUGE 80's music buff, if you can give me any more input, I could probably figure it out for you!!

Let me know.....

YAY!!!!!! ;D I figured as much. I used to sort of like them once upon a time...well, I liked a few of their songs, that being one of them. They were rather popular, weren't they...:)

By the way...I believe I remain undefeated in the song guessing category. Yay for me!!!!!!!! ;D
