^ Suite Charlotte Pike, pt. II: Mr. Wonderful
 
How about this one?
To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honeydew
And drink the milk of paradise.

Innocence Faded by DT (just listened to that yesterday Tongue)
 
how about:
This boy was something else
Someone she knew so well
Echoes of snakes in paradise
Saw the strangest fire burning in his eyes.

That's Tarkus by ELP.
 
How about
Callow and vain
Stripped like a fossil shrouding pain
Passionless stage
Some world views are spacious, and some are merely spaced...

OK I found it. It's Dark Globe! Tongue

Now:

But anyway, they say she comes on a pale horse,
but I'm sure I hear a train,
I don't even feel no pain,
I guess I must be driving myself insane.

RIP in bossa nova heaven.

This one of Bern's does not seem to have been solved ... it would be La Rossa by VDGG
 
Here is another to go on with...
 
Proposition, deal. Flying button feel. Testicle testing.
Wallet ever-bulging. Dressed to the left, divulging

it was rush - open secrets
and I think the last one is something by Radiohead. I don't know much of them so I'm not for sure.

Well, I'm quite sure it's a Rush track but can't get the title at the moment...

damn most of my music is without vocals Embarrassed
 
ahh... I got one:
 
"So we'll sail away for just one day to the land where the punk weed grows
Won't need any money, just fingers and your toes
And when it's dark our boat will park on a land of warm and green
Pick our fill of punk weed and smoke it till we bleed, that's all we'll need
While sailing back in morning light, we'll wash our teeth in the sea
And when the day gets really bright, we'll go to sea drinking tea"
 
In The Land of Grey and Pink - Caravan
 
I have one:
 
For what seemed only just a moment in time
Seven solemn flying silvered regal horses rode by
Seven golden chariots in tow, a wonder to behold
The Seven Lords of the Mountains of Time
There then arose where nothing really stood there before
A giant tent rising one thousand feet high frofrom the floor
Towns people flocked inside with their eyes all amazed
To greet the Seventh Lord of the seventh age
A fanfare rang out in an incredible sound
Bringing out the strangest visions perfect harmony round
Any dreams he asked would they like to have seen
From historical or mythical scenes
