We gotta get outta this place
If it's the last thing we ever do

*I have no idea who sings this*

The Animals.
...Girl there's a better life
For me and you.

mid-60's.

Answer me girl, yes I would
I'd place you above me

"If I Were a Carpenter," Johnny Cash and June Carter (and probably others, but they're in my head)

There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us somewhere

-from "West Side Story"

Sarah said...

So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place

The Calling

Sandra Dodd said...

There--
There's a place
Where I can go
When I feel low
When I feel blue...

from "Introducing the Beatles" on VeeJay records, and I don't know if it was anywhere else.

There are places I remember
Some have gone and some remain

"In my life" by The Beatles

Shanona Ryder said...

A place
where nobody dared to go
the love that we came to know
they call it
Xanadu...

---Olivia Newton-John

Sandra Dodd said...

And Beach Boys:

There's a place where I can go
To tell my troubles to
In my room....

(not very grammatical, but nice harmonies)

I know a place where the music is fine
And the lights are always low
I know a place where we can go

This is the place where all the junkies go.
Where time gets fast but everything gets slow.

This Is The Place by The Red Hot Chili Peppers

It's a quarter to three
There's no one in the place
Except you and me

"One for my Baby" An old standard, I don't know by whom. Frank Sinatra made it famous, but I think of Bette Midler doing it, as the very last guest ever on the Johnny Carson show.

And it's a twofer for THREE!

Back to the street
down to our feet
losing the feeling of feeling unique
Do you know what I mean?
Back to the PLACE
where we used to say
man it feels good to feel this way

How can I place you above me
Am I lyin' to you when I say
That I believe in you...

Neil Young, "I Believe in You"

Sally said...

I need a place where I can go
Where I can whisper what I know

-from "The Secret Garden"

Unknown said...

There is a place that I have found
Where the Spirit breathes a wind,
Wind so pure it cleanses my soul within.

Time will never touch you
Here in this enchanted place
