Short version of rules
Without using a search engine to find one, write down at least eight words of a song containing the word (or the topic, if it's a general topic).
If it's the newest word, play once, and wait for another player to play before you go again.
On older words, you can play over and over without waiting!

Where, where were you?
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend

We were young and restless,
We needed to unwind,
Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams
Were you there when they crucified my lord?
(One of those hymns from my Baptist days)
You were once my one companion,
You were all that mattered,
You were once a friend and father,
Then my world was shattered.
Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again - Christine Daae from Phantom of The Opera
They were swinging and swaying, records playing,
Dancing in the street.

Those were the days my friend,
We thought they'd never end,

Memories
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were.
(Marvin Hamlisch; notably sung by Streisand)

Ask me how do I feel
Ask me now that we're fondly caressing
Boy, if I were a salad
I know I'd be splashing my dressing
"If I Were a Bell" from "Guys and Dolls"
Monikah and Shane beat me to 3 of the songs I was thinking of - well done. :)
Were thine that special face?
The face which fills my dreaming,
Were thine the rhythm'd grace,
Were thine the form so lithe and slender,
Were thine the arms so warm, so tender,
Were Thine That Special Face - from the musical Kiss Me Kate
PS: Mary Hopkins sang Those Were The Days
Where did we go wrong?
I thought that we were s'posed to make it.

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.
But the stars we could reach
were just starfish on the beach.

All she needs is a tender moment
Let her know you'll always be her man
TENDER MOMENT - Lee Roy Parnell
Oh, when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire-proof
Under The Boardwalk - The Drifters, The Rolling Stones, Bette Middler, etc
When you were young
and on your own
how did it feel to be alone?
"Only Love Can Break Your Heart"
Neil Young
Where were you when everything was falling apart?
You Found Me ~ Fray
(8 words)
We were just young and restless and bored,
Living by the sword.
--Night Moves by Bob Seger
Everybody was Kung Fu fighting
those kicks were fast as lightning
in fact it was a lttle bit frightening
but they fought with expert timing...
---Carl Douglas
If I were a rich man,
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.
If I were a wealthy man.
I wouldn't have to work hard.
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
If I were a biddy biddy rich,
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.
If I Were A Rich Man - from Fiddler On The Roof
Go swimming in the rain,
When we were kids.

Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed

The sleepless nights, the daily fights
The quick toboggan when you reach the heights
I miss the kisses and I miss the bites
I wish I were in love again

We were young and we were improvin'
Laughin', laughin' with our friends

When I bit off more than I could chew.

Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood

Lipstick on you collar said you were untrue
Bet your bottom dollar you and I are through
Cuz lipstick on you collar told a tale on you

Only a moment ago we had nothing but time
Everything lasted forever and you were all mine
When You Go

Where were you when I wanted you
