GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #399 (GOLQ399)
Welcome to GOLQ 399! This month's quiz has a theme and all 27 songs share
characteristics of the theme. Here are some clarifying instructions and a hint
to the theme: I have an intended artist for both T1 and T2, but both songs
were covered by more than one eligible artist. I will give credit for any
artist as long as 1) the lyrics in their rendition match my lyrics exactly;
2) the artist fits alphabetically in the song sequence; and, 3) the artist's
rendition was recorded and released prior to 1970 (the end point of our GOLQ
era). Enjoy!

Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #399
Recordings #01-25 were from 1956 through 1967
Due 5:00 PM EDT (GMT-4) on Thursday, April 30, 2020.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know
#01)
The winds of March
That makes my heart a dancer
A telephone rings
But who's there to answer
#02)
Another bride, another June
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
#03)
If there's a cloud above
If it should rain, we'll let it
But for tonight, forget it
#04)
That little kiss you stole
(You stole) Oh, you stole
(Yes, you stole) Oh, you stole
(You stole) Oh, you stole
#05)
Sometimes I wonder
Why I spend the lonely night
Dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
#06)
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my, my, my, my, my, my
Given you my heart
#07)
It's far beyond a star
It's near beyond the moon
#08)
There's a line between love and fascination
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
For they both give the very same sensation
When you're lost in the magic of a kiss
#09)
And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before
And loved before
#10)
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey dear
While I kiss away each tear
#11)
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
#12)
But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
#13)
Every day I reminisce
Dreaming of your tender kiss
Always thinking how I miss
#14)
I've got my girl
Who could ask for anything more
#15)
With love to lead the way
I've found more clouds of gray
Than any rainy day could guarantee
#16)
Whether near to me or far
It's no matter, Darling, where you are
I think of you
#17)
You'll hear me say that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
#18)
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
#19)
I can only give you love that lasts forever
And a promise to be near each time you call
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone
#20)
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true, oh
I, of course, replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied
#21)
I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the day is through
I'll be looking at the moon
#22)
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for
#23)
In time the Rockies may crumble
Gibraltar may tumble
They're only made of clay
#24)
Light, light up your face (ha, ha) with gladness (come on)
Hide every trace of sadness
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
-------------
So close she stood to me
Everything seems all wrong now
She would have brought me the sun
Making me smile
That was her fun
#T1)
Except when soft rains fall
And drip from leaves, then I recall
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Of course I do
#T2)
