Duran Duran Lyrics
“A View To A Kill”

Meeting you with a view to a kill
Face to face in secret places, feel the chill

Nightfall covers me, but you know the plans I’m making
Still overseas, could it be the whole Earth opening wide
A sacred why, a mystery gaping inside
A week is why, until we…

Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire

The choice for you is the view to a kill
Between the shades assassination standing still

The first crystal tears fall as snowflakes on your body
First time in years to drench your skin in lover’s rosy stain
A chance to find the phoenix for the flame
A chance to die, but can we…

Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire

When all we see is the view to a kill

@taci,

Good evening I had to turn the telly off. I think I will switch over to TCM.

I have on Demand and there are many classics to choose from. I also have in my DVR
all the major classics I can watch anytime. 💕😎

There you go. 😎🎈

I am keeping warm tonight I have fed all the cats. They are safe. 💕

@xango,

Good Evening I am sorry to hear about the Aunt bad fall. I hope she feels better soon.
i would love to see that house it sounds massive. I bet everyone cooks good too. 💕

I can’t watch anymore telly tonight the fire is heart breaking and more keep breaking out.
Many rich and everyday day people are affected. LA looks like a war zone from all the Media
coverage. Prayers for all affected.

I bet you enjoyed your Pasta. 💕I hope everyone heals in your family.

It would be nice to be in Brazil we are snowing as I type and temps will super cold in the
morning. Mr. Poppy has the backyard all to himself. LOL!

@shoelady60,

Good evening Lady did you know our sweetheart Milo Ventimiglia who played Jack
from this is us house burned today. Milo was emotional because in a scene from the
show he passed from a fire in his home he lost everything. This is all over the web.

How sad and his wife is pregnant due any day.

Prayers for him and all affected by this savage fire.

I hope you are enjoying the Game. I can’t watch anymore of the fire it’s too much.
I can only imagine how people who lost everything feel.

The cats are coming and eating real good. 💕

Peace Out Peeps keep safe and warm. 😎

Shoelady, Bon Voyage to your Mother and Sister. Sounds like good timing Hope they have lots of sun and fun.
I didn’t know bunnies could survive in the cold like that, your deck must be warm underneath.
Have a good evening watching the games.

Sheba, I understand why your neighbor and his gf from SD don’t want to talk about it. What a disaster…No water… none in fire hydrants, people fleeing from their cars on the road. Just sad.

Back to old movies, a much more pleasant topic. If you are on a TCM panel I will be more than happy to buy one of those wine bottles they sell and watch you!
Little Sheba, so sweet.

I wouldn’t go out on snow and ice for a walk either. Well, not without a helmet and elbow pads. 🙂
Sounds like you and Poppy have the drill down.

My heart goes out to those in California. So many lost everything, and some their life.
I hope that in the future builders will find a way to avoid such situations. Such as building in a way that prevents fire to attach to a house and go from house to house.

The ravioli turned out wonderfully delicious. I had it for a snack this afternoon with butter and sage.
My cousin’s sister who is much older than her was found in her apartment on the floor. She had fallen and needed assistance. That’s not the first time she was found like that. She can’t take care of herself any longer. She was taken to the hospital and now she is in a rehab. The family will be getting her into a assistant living.

Before that, my cousin’s son suprised her with a visit for the New year. In Brazil you get 30 days of vacation per year. Her son’s aunt also arrived for a visit. At her property you first go through a big gate. Then you climb these huge stairs, huge and high to the form of being for a gaint. Whomever made the stairs, made the steps three times the normal hight.
So by the time you get up there, you are exhausted. His aunt is elderly, and was so tired by the time she got into the house she missed stepped and took a hard fall.
She was black and blue, cut her face and mouth. Its been close to two weeks now and she is getting better.
I hope the weather becomes kinder to your area and gets warm.
Stay warm Sheba and take care 🌹🌹❤️
