"If" by Bread

[progmom]

If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.

If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

8. I can only think of the line we used way back in high school...

if a face could launch a thousand ships,
then yours would sink them all...

(And the definition of a Milli-Helen is the amount of beauty required to launch ONE ship.)

Okay, that's a lie. But it's the thought that counts.

15. I believe it is this fellow

but I got the quote wrong - "Sometimes the hardest thing in the world is to be soft. Just ask the B-Boys - The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Bee Gees and Bread - all of whom, at some point in their careers, had to face criticism for the gentleness of their sound.
The music of the Carpenters is the most defiantly un-brash of all."

13. I don't know....

No matter how you slice it,
They seem to have grown stale....
