Subject: Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #27

_____________________________________________________________________________
Oh, the need for you
Just to be with you
Is the reason why I plead to you
#01)

It's been so long since you've been gone away
And maybe when you come back, you'll be home to stay
#02)

I'll try to make her happy
And I promise I'll be good
I'll play it by the rules
Just like every lover should
#03)

Some sunny day, he will set you free
To be by my side
Some sunny day, sweetheart, he'll set you free
We'll be satisfied
#04)

Mister Moon, Mister Sun
Tell her she's the only one
Guide her with your lovely light
Back into my arms tonight
#05)

Oh well, good-bye
Although I'll cry
#06)

And if you needed a dream to keep you smiling
I'll tell the sandman you were blue
#07)

I sit around wondering
About your new affair
I should forget to remember
And remember not to care
#08)

I bragged too long that your love was strong
There'd never be another guy
But you said more when you whispered your good-bye
#09)

Is it right to be treated so bad
When you've given everything you had?
Even talking in my sleep
#10)

Blood is rushing, temperature is rising
Sweating from my brow
Like a snake, her body fascinates me
I can't look away now
#11)

And then the cat
Started strutting on hot coals
He was wearing sneaks
But they were so full of holes
#12)

Oh, but I hate to say I told you so
But baby you got, just got to reap what you sow
#13)

I need you
I want you near me
I love you
Yes I do and I hope you hear me
#14)

There's no reason why my being shy
Should keep us apart
#15)

He put me on a cloud
And he sent me up above
There I found an angel
An angel I can love
#16)

Then all at once, he was standing there
So sure of himself, his head in the air
#17)

I'll build a castle like those of old
And I would fill it with wealth untold
I'd fight a lion, compose a symphony
I'll count the stars in the galaxy
#18)

Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
#19)

What's gonna happen to me when you're gone?
How will I live?
How can I go on?
#20)

Spending counterfeit incentive
Wasting precious time and health
Placing value on the worthless
Disregarding priceless wealth
#21)

More foolish I grow
With each heartbeat
But we all get foolish
That's why I repeat
#22)

All around I see the purple shades of evening
And on the ground shadows fall
And once again you're in my arms so tenderly
#23)

She's my Tutti-Fruitti, I love the child so
She watch me like a hound dog everywhere I go
Whenever I'm around, I'm on my Ps and Qs
She might step on my blue suede shoes
#24)

For dessert, there was batwing confetti
And the veins of a mummy named Betty
I first frowned upon it, but with ketchup on it,
It tasted very much like spaghetti
#25)

tie breakers:

When I first saw you
I did adore you
And your loving ways
And then you went away
But now you're back to stay
#TB1)

She's there waiting
And I'm hesitating
Tell me just when this rain will stop
#TB2)
