Hi all,
First time I have posted on here, I am looking for some inspiration for a worded tattoo. My wife is paying for a tattoo for my christmas present and I am looking for a couple of lines from a Steve Harley / Cockney rebel song that would be appropriate as a tribute to her. We have been married for 35 years and she was diagnosed with cancer in 1998 and she has been fighting it ever since. She is such a wonderful and brave mother and wife. Any suggestions.

Thanks

Hi Dav,

not quite what you asked for, but could I suggest the title of a Harley track 'A Friend For Life' perhaps? Redolent of the song itself, it might say it all for you both?

Dav, I think I would go with one of these....

The she flicked her neck, defiantly,
And for such gestures one could fall hopelessly in love.
For a lifetime- Riding the Waves

Will you think of me as a distant island or will you come with me to the moon?
I'll need a soul-mate to hold me and a friend for life and I'm hoping it might be you- FFL

I'll be there on the road as the mystery unfolds
I'll be there when you need a special friend
I'll be there when you fear it's a never ending road
I'll be there at your journey's end. – Journey’s end

If I knew how to say it I'd say it for you
If I knew how to whisper I'd whisper for you
If I knew how to waltz I'd get up and dance for you
If i thought I could run I'd come running to you- BYOOL

All the things that I've been through
Don't mean a thing compared with you
You can give me life forever in a moment- Love Compared to You

She's like a rosebud in my heart and in my dreams
See her flow into the night like rivers and streams- Bed in the Corner

Quite the Romantic Steve when he writes a love song/couplet isn't he?

hi dav and welcome . I have a Harley inspired tatoo in mind and have had for years and years but not got around to it as yet. have that many others already . but it should be a personal choice I know what I will have as in the words from a Harley song and there will be loads of tips from people on here good people but choose it yourself only you know what it will mean to you and in time you will want to think I picked that for my darling wife . choose wisely my friend it is with you a long time good luck
