"Do you want to be the pillow where I lay my head Do you want to be the feathers lying in my bed?"

"Do you want to be the pillow where I lay my head Do you want to be the feathers lying in my bed?"


"Do you want to be the<b> pillow </font></b>where I lay my head
Do you want to be the feathers lying in my bed?" - yes, please...

I've thought about you listening to this song... when you take the time to read the lyrics... you will see the mad, passionate love that I feel for you...
although, your fate has not been cast yet... you still have a full life ahead of you... the memories of you drive me crazy... reliving those moments of yesteryear... those days that we were together... the peaceful moments of looking into each other's eyes... into our souls... with little care in the world... no separation from lyin' eyes... or anything near that... pure, unadulterated luv making... the kind of firsts that i write about... that you loved and shared with me... that 1969 blue mustang... your hair blowing in the wind... the sun glistening off of your lips... the shades down... your look of love... still you turn me on...

years after finally understanding the meaning of the lyrics... it doesn't change how I feel about you listening to it on vinyl... those imperfections of the needle rolling over each note... while ELP slowly takes me back to those days...
did you wanna be a poet... did you wanna be a star... did you wanna be anything you wanted... perhaps, the lover of another... under cover... I used to luv these lyrics... not as much as I luved you... but, the sensation keeps coming back... that picture of you... just as you are... just as you were... the sense memory... etched deep in my brain... the wanting... the yearning... the loving...
I can hear the lyrics and see only you...
could you be the man on the moon...
well... give these a read... it truly makes one think of how crazy in luv we can be...
.................................................................................
"Do you want to be an angel
Do you want to be a star
Do you want to play some magic on my guitar?
Do you want to be a poet
Do you want to be my string?
You could be anything
Do you want to be the lover of another, undercover?
You could even be the man on the moon
Do you want to be the player
Do you want to be the string?
Let me tell you something
It just dont mean a thing
You see, it really doesn't matter
When youre buried in disguise
By the dark glass on your eyes
Though your flesh has crystallized
Still you turn me on
Still you turn me on
Hmm, you turn me on
Do you want to be the<b> pillow </font></b>where I lay my head
Do you want to be the feathers lying in my bed?
Do you want to be a color cover magazine
Create a scene
Every day a little sadder
A little madder?
Someone get me a ladder
Do you want to be the singer
Do you want to be the song?
Let me tell you something
You just couldn't be more wrong
You see, I really have to tell you
That it all gets so intense
From my experience
It just doesn't seem to make sense
Still you turn me on
Hmm, you turn me on, oh yeah
Hmm, you turn me on..." -- Emerson, Lake & Palmer - "Still you turn me on"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So... my little pretties... if you've not heard this song... please give it a listen... let me know your thoughts...
hmm...

You Don't Have To Be A Star Lyrics

Baby come as you are
With just your heart
And I'll take you in
You're rejected and hurt
To me you're worth
What you have within

Now I don't need no superstar
Cause I'll accept you as you are
You won't be denied
Cause I'm satisfied
With the love you inspire
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show

Somebody nobody knows
Could steal the tune that you want to hear
So stop your running around
Cause now you've found what was cloudy is clear
Oh honey, there'll be no cheering from the crowds
Just two hearts beating out loud
There'll be no parade
No tv or stage
Only me till your dying day
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show
Oh, honey
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show

Don't think your star has to shine
For me to find out where you're coming from
What is a beauty queen
If it don't mean that I'm number one?
I don't need no superstar
Cause I'll accept you as you are
You won't be denied
Cause I'm satisfied
With the love you inspire
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show
Oh, honey
You don't have to be a star, baby
To be in my show

You don't have to be a star, baby

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

I just learned an acoustic version of that song last month. It's just a dream to play and sing. Great lyrics. Greg Lake was phenomenal.

Look up the acoustic version of him playing it on a 12 string. Unbelievable.

Weird little thing..watch him while he's singing. He's chewing gum while he's singing. LOL.

Hi Platosgames.

thanks for visiting and commenting on this post.

Wow... I had just seen that version this week as well...

what an amazing talent... for the most part, he is singing and playing with his eyes closed...

and, he's chewing gum...

clearly, his song... and, he owns it...

I did like that rendition, however, I do prefer the radio remastered studio version... so perfect... my other two faves from ELP are: "From the Beginning" and "Lucky Man"...

thanks again, for stopping by.

have a great day!!!
