I never cared much for moonlit skies I never wink back at fireflies But now that the stars are in your eyes I'm beginning to see the light I never went in for afterglow Or candlelight on the mistletoe But now when you turn the lamp down low I'm beginning to see the light Used to ramble through the park Shadowboxing in the dark Then you came and caused a spark That's a four-alarm fire now I never made love by lantern-shine I never saw rainbows in my wine But now that your lips are burning mine I'm beginning to see the light

My Girl 02:47
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day. When it's cold outside I've got the month of May. I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? My girl (my girl, my girl) Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl). I've got so much honey the bees envy me. I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees. Well, I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? My girl (my girl, my girl) Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl). Hey hey hey Hey hey hey Ooooh. I don't need no money, fortune or fame. I've got all the riches, baby, one man can claim. Well, I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? My girl (my girl, my girl) Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).

Must be catchin', I got it! You've got it, everybody's got it! Must be catchin', oo-ooh it's love! Birds in the tree, man They got it! Fish in the sea, they got it! Must be catchin', oo-ooh it's love! No need to worry, it started with Adam, He looked at Eve, man she had him! Must be catchin', oo-ooh it's love! C'est la vie! Why should you doubt it? You can't live without it! Man I know you can't live without it! Must be catchin', oo-ooh it's love!

Oh, oh, oh For the longest time Oh, oh, oh For the longest time If you said goodbye to me tonight There would still be music left to write What else could I do I'm so inspired by you That hasn't happened for the longest time Once I thought my innocence was gone Now I know that happiness goes on That's where you found me When you put your arms around me I haven't been there for the longest time Oh, oh, oh For the longest time Oh, oh, oh For the longest time Who knows how much further we'll go on Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone I'll take my chances I forgot how nice romance is I haven't been there for the longest time I had second thoughts at the start I said to myself Hold on to your heart Now I know the gentlemen you are You're wonderful so far And it's more that I hoped for I don't care what consequence it brings I have been a fool for lesser things I want you so bad I think you ought to know that I intend to hold you for The longest time

Come away with me in the night Come away with me And I will write you a song Come away with me on a bus Come away where they can't tempt us With their lies I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high So won't you try to come Come away with me and we'll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And I'll never stop loving you And I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I'm safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me

The bed is too small for my tired head Bring me a hill soft with trees Tuck a cloud up under my chin Lord, blow the moon out please

I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the moonlight Just like we used to do I'm always walkin' after midnight searchin' for you I walk for miles along the highway Well, that's just my way Of sayin' I love you I'm always walkin' after midnight, searchin' for you I stop to see a weepin' willow Cryin' on his pillow Maybe he's cryin' for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the moonlight Just hopin' you may be Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight, searchin' for me I stop to see a weepin' willow Cryin' on his pillow Maybe he's cryin' for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the moonlight Just hopin' you may be Somewhere a-walkin' after midnight, searchin' for me

Lie still, little bottle, and shake my shaky hand Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song I know I must investigate I hope that I can sing along There's no time for metaphors cried the little pill to me He said, "Life is a placebo masquerading as a simile"* Well, I knew that pill was lying Too gregarious, too nice But as he walked I had to sing this twice Lie still, little bottle Don't twist, it ain't twistin' time With every move you make you just disintegrate my ever-troubled mind Lie still, little bottle, and shake my shaky hand Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song I know I must investigate I hope that I can sing along

Billy-Ray was a preacher's son And when his daddy would visit he'd come along When they gathered round and started talkin' That's when Billy would take me walkin' A-through the backyard we'd go walkin' Then he'd look into my eyes Lord knows to my surprise The only boy who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was Ooh, yes he was Being good isn't always easy No matter how hard I try When he started sweet-talkin' to me He'd come and tell me everything is all right He'd kiss and tell me everything is all right Can I get away again tonight? The only boy who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was (Ooh...) Yes he was How well I remember The look that was in his eyes Stealin' kisses from me on the sly Takin' time to make time Tellin' me that he's all mine Learnin' from each other's knowing Lookin' to see how much we've grown And the only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man Yes he was, he was Ooh, yes he was The only one who could ever reach me Was the son of a preacher man The only boy who could ever teach me Was the son of a preacher man The only one who could ever move me Was the son of a preacher man He was the son of a man

Fever 04:14
Never know how much I love you Never know how much I care When you put your arms around me I get a fever that's so hard to bear You give me fever When you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever! in the morning Fever all through the night Sun lights up the daytime Moon lights up the night I light up when you call my name And you know I'm gonna treat you right You give me fever When you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever! in the morning Fever all through the night Everybody's got the fever That is something you all know Fever isn't such a new thing Fever started long ago Romeo loved Juliet Juliet, she felt the same When he put his arms around her He said, "Julie, baby, you're my flame "Thou giveth fever "When we kisseth "Fever with thy flaming youth "Fever! I'm afire "Fever, yea, I burn, forsooth." Cap'n Smith and Pocahontas Had a very mad affair When her daddy tried to kill him She said, "Daddy, oh, don't you dare! "He gives me fever "With his kisses "Fever when he holds me tight "Fever! I'm his missus "Daddy, won't you treat him right?" Now you've listened to my story Here's the point that I have made Chicks were born to give you fever Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade They give you fever When you kiss them Fever if you live and learn Fever! till you sizzle What a lovely way to burn What a lovely way to burn What a lovely way to burn What a lovely way to burn

Cathedral bells were tolling and our hearts rang on, Was it the spell of Paris, or the April dawn? Who knows if we shall meet again but when the morning chimes ring sweet again, I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places that this heart of mine embraces all day through. In that small cafe, the park across the way, the children's carousel, the chestnut tree, the wishing well. I'll be seeing you in every lovely summer's day, in everything that's light and gay, I'll always think of you that way. I'll find you in the morning sun, and when the night is new I'll be looking at the moon, but I'll be seeing you.

If there's a prize for rotten judgement I guess, I've already won that No man is worth the aggravation That's ancient history, been there, done that Who do you think you're kiddin'? He's the earth and heaven to you Try to keep it hidden Honey, we can see right through you Girl, you can't conceal it We know how you feel and Who you're thinking of No chance, no way I won't say it, no, no (You swoon, you sigh Why deny it? Uh, oh) It's too cliche I won't say I'm in love I thought my heart had learned its lesson It feels so good when you start out My head is screaming, get a grip, girl Unless you're dying to cry your heart out, oh You keep on denying Who you are and how you're feeling Baby, we're not buying Hon, we saw you hit the ceiling Face it like a grown up When you gonna own up That you got, got, got it bad No chance, no way I won't say it, no, no (Give up, give in Check the grin you're in love) This scene won't play I won't say I'm in love You're doin' flips read our lips You're in love You're way off base I won't say it no Get off my case I won't say it Girl, don't be proud It's okay, you're in love Ooh At least out loud I won't say I'm in love

Oh, lullaby by birdland that's what I Always hear, when you sigh, never in my wordland could there be words to reveal in a phrase how I feel Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo, when they love? That's the kind of magic music we made with our lips When we kiss And there's a weepy old willow He really knows how to cry That's how I'd cry in my pillow If you should tell me farewell and goodbye Lullaby by birdland whisper low Kiss me sweet, and we'll go Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above All because we're in love Lullaby, Lullaby Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo when they love? That's the kind of magic music we made with our lips When we kiss And there's a weepy old willow He really knows how to cry That's how I'd cry in my pillow If you should tell me farewell and goodbye Lullaby by birdland whisper low Kiss me sweet, and we'll go Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above All because we're in love
