GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #308 (GOLQ308)
Welcome to the September back-to-school edition of the quiz. (Maybe it's just
me, but those back-to-school ads still inspire dread, decades after my
formal education ended!)
A couple of minor themes are embedded this time around. Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forever more
You are all that I long for
All I worship and adore
#01)
But every now and then, I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like
I've never done before
#02)
My darling, if this is goodbye
I just know I'm gonna cry
#03)
There's a girl in my heart
Whose heart I've stolen
#04)
I know that I
Meant every sigh
When you hugged me the way you hugged me
And you kissed me the way you kissed me
#05)
It's that itchy-twitchy feeling that I have inside
Something overwhelming that I just can't hide
I wanna know, woh yeah, woh tell me
#06)
It's just the way the stars shine
And it really isn't love at all
#07)
Under the trees, out where it's breezy
Nobody here but me and you
We'll do the things we've meant to do
Sit back, relax, and take it easy
#08)
Never thought I'd find a girl like you
Now I have, I know I'll never be blue
#09)
I told you he was a fool
He'll break your heart
He'll tear it apart
So you better get smart
#10)
Always you, always me
Won't you take me along to be with you
#11)
Church full of singing, out of tune
#12)
But every time I see them, I pray
And if my prayer can cross the sea
#13)
And if you're quick enough to rise
You'll catch the fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow
#14)
Baby, yes, I need your love
But I'm not gonna get this low
Don't you think that I can tell
When you've got no place else to go
#15)
First, it's up
And then it's down
It changes so fast
Never hits the ground
#16)
The kind of a man the West would need
To tame a troubled land
#17)
Just won't let me be
Wake up restless nights
Lord, and I can't even sleep
#18)
Times that are happy are times that are few
And once I was happy when I had you
The days have come and gone since you were here
Nights are twice as long without you near
#19)
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothing seems to fit
#20)
When you find your fascination in the arms of other guys
You must know my reputation comes to nothing in their eyes
Still you take off in a hurry anytime it pleases you
And you only start to worry when I say I'm leaving you
#21)
Please say you'll be mine
Love me or leave me
I'll go out of my mind
#22)
Warmer than May, her tender sighs
Love was ours
#23)
I can hardly wait for the day when we say "I do"
It's a day I've dreamed of so long, now it's coming true
#24)
There's a certain sound
Always follows me around
When you're close to me
You will hear it
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
Uh oh, uh oh, I gotta turn the corner, man!
Gotta turn the corner!
#T1)
I woke up last night
Half past four
Fifteen women knockin' at my door
#T2)
