Cafe Society

If a picture paints a thousand words, then why can’t I paint you? (Bread)
Can’t we stop hurting each other (Carpenters)
Hey, hey, Johnny, can’t you come out and play? (John Lennon)
What’ve I gotta do to make you love me? (Elton John)
Who wants to buy this diamond ring (Gary Lewis)
Do you love me? Will you love me forever? Do you need me? Will you never leave me? Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? Will you take me away? Will you make me your wife? (Meatloaf)

I don’t even want to think about what these responses say about my playlist:)
