- TAKE A LOOK AT THE SIMILARITIES
- HE WISHED FOR THE CLOTHS OF HEAVEN
Enwrought with golden and silverlight,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softlybecause you tread on my dreams. (William B. Yeats-1899)
I'M STONE IN LOVE WITH YOU
If I could I'd like to be, a great big movie star
Overnight sensation, drive a big expensive car
I would buy you everything your little heart desires
These things I'd do, 'cause I'm stone in love with you
If I were a businessman, I'd sit behind a desk
I'd be so successful, I would scare wall street to death.
I would hold a meeting for the press to let them know
I did it all, 'cause I'm stone in love with you
I'm just a man, an average man
Doing everything the best I can
but if i could, I'd give the world to you.
I'd like to be the owner of
The first house on the moon
There would be no neighbors, and no population boom
You might say that all I do is dream my life away
I guess it's true, 'cause I'm stone in love with you. (Linda Creed/Thom Bell/Anthony Salvatore Bell 1972) Performed by pop group , The Stylistics
