Twist Of Fate Composer(s): Kipner - Becket Performer(s): Olivia Newton-John
Do we deserve a second chance? How did we fall into this circumstance? We weren't so straight and narrow This is much more than we deserve
A higher voice has called the tune: "Two hearts that lost the beat will now resume!" This gift of life extension By divine intervention
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate Telling me that Heaven can wait Telling me to get it right this time Life doesn't mean a thing Without the love you bring Love is what we've found The second time around
Don't understand what's going on Woke up this morning, all the hurt was gone This is a new beginning I'm back in the land of the living
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate Telling me that Heaven can wait Telling me to get it right this time Life doesn't mean a thing Without the love you bring Love is what we've found The second time around
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate Telling me that Heaven can wait Oh, I'm gonna get it right this time Life doesn't mean a thing Without the love you bring Love is what we've found The second time around
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate Telling me that Heaven can wait You know, I'm gonna get it right I'm gonna make it work this time Life doesn't mean a thing Without the love you bring Love is what we've found The second time around
It's gotta be a strange twist of fate Telling me that Heaven can wait
Life doesn't mean a thing Without the love you bring Love is what we've found The second time around

If I lived the past over Saw today from yesterday I would be in love Anyway If I knew that you'd leave me If I knew you wouldn't stay I would be in love Anyway Sometimes I think Think about before Sometime I think If I knew then What I know now I don't believe I'd ever change Somehow Though you'll never be with me And there are no words to say I'll still be in love Anyway If I knew then What I know now I don't believe I'd ever change Somehow If I knew then What I know now I don't believe I'd ever change Somehow

I wore a tunic, a dirty khaki tunic And you wore your civvy clothes We fought and bled at Loos While you were on the booze The booze that no one here knows You were out with the wenches While we were in the trenches Facing an angry foe Oh, you were a-slacking, while we were attacking the Germans on the Menin Road
Kiss On My List Composer(s): Janna Allen; Daryl Hall Performer(s): Hall & Oates; Darrell Labrado; Chikuzen Sato
My friends wonder why I call you all of the time What can I say I don't feel the need to give such secrets away You think maybe I need help, no, I know that I'm right I'm just better off not listening to friends' advice When they insist on knowing my bliss I tell them this When they want to know what the reason is I only smile when I lie, then I tell them why (Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list (Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list Because your kiss is on my list of the best things in life (Because your kiss) your kiss is on my list (Because your kiss) your kiss I can't resist I go crazy wondering what there is to really see Did the night just take up your time, 'cause it means more to me Sometimes I forget what I'm doing, I don't forget what I want Regret what I've done, regret you? I couldn't go on And if you insist on knowing my bliss I'll tell you this If you want to know what the reason is I'll only smile when I lie, then I'll tell you this
Twist In My Sobriety Composer(s): Tanita Tikaram First release: Tanita Tikaram - 1988 Covered by multiple other artists
All God's children need travelling shoes Drive your problems from here All good people read good books Now your conscience is clear Now your conscience is clear
In the morning when I wipe my brow Wipe the miles away I like to think I can be so willed And never do what you say And never do what you say
Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety
We just poked a little pie For the fun that people have at night Late at night don't need hostility The timid smile and pause to free
I don't care about their different thoughts Different thoughts are good for me Up in arms and chaste and whole All God's children took their toll
Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety
Cup of tea take time to think yeah Time to risk a life a life a life Sweet and handsome soft and porky You pig out 'til you've seen the light Pig out 'til you've seen the light
Half the people read the papers Read them good and well Pretty people nervous people People have got to sell News you have to sell
Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety
Kiss The Boys Goodbye From the film "Kiss The Boys Goodbye" Composer(s): Frank Loesser; Victor Schertzinger Performer(s): Anne Shelton; and various other artists
We're such a happy pair That it isn't right, no, it isn't fair To all those other boys I gave the air...
So, Daddy, let me stay out late For tomorrow is our wedding date Let the Baby kinda celebrate Kiss the boys goodbye
Daddy, let me wear the mink What's the difference what the neighbours think Let the Baby linger on the brink Oh, kiss the boys goodbye
And while I'm kissing them sentiment'ly Keep the liberal point of view Because I'm breaking it to them gently That my heart belongs to you
So, Daddy, please remember this That tomorrow starts a life of bliss Let me show them what they're gonna miss Kiss the boys goodbye

I Won't Take Less Than Your Love Composer(s): Paul Overstreet; Don Schlitz First release by: Tanya Tucker, Paul Davis & Paul Overstreet - 1987
How much do I owe you? said the husband to his wife For standing beside me through the hard years of my life Shall I bring you diamonds, shall I buy you furs? Say the word and it's yours And his wife said: I won't take less than your love, sweet love No, I won't take less than your love All the riches of the world could never be enough And I won't take less than your love
How much do I owe you? to the mother said the son For all that you have taught me in the days that I was young Shall I bring expensive blankets to cast upon your bed? And a pillow for to rest your weary head
And the mother said: I won't take less than your love, sweet love No, I won't take less than your love All the comforts of the world could never be enough And I won't take less than your love
How much do I owe you? said the man to his Lord For giving me this day and every day that's gone before Shall I build a temple, shall I make a sacrifice? Tell me Lord and I will pay the price
And the Lord said: I won't take less than your love, sweet love No, I won't take less than your love All the treasures of the world could never be enough And I won't take less than your love
I won't take less than your love, sweet love No, I won't take less than your love All the treasures of the world could never be enough And I won't take less than your love
Kiss The Children Composer(s): Gram Parsons & Rick Grech Performer(s): Gram Parsons; Rick Grech; Bill & Audrey
Well, it's said my life is been so free and easy But I'll tell you now the story isn't so Cause I've spent a lot of time down on the corner Tasting tears and spilling whisky on the floor
Such a shame that it's so hard from me To tell the truth to you But by now you know the kind of man I am So don't turn your pretty face away from me, dear Cause there's kids and this game don't understand
James Burton Electric Guitar solo
One more night like this would put me six feet under But my heart will still be fighting for your love Just remember, little darling, that I love you And kiss the children for me, please, before you go
Pedal Steel Guitar solo
So don't play this crazy game with me no longer Cause I won't be able to resist my rage And the gun that's hangin on the kitchen wall, dear Is like the road sign pointing straight to satan's cage And the gun that's hangin on the kitchen wall, dear Is like the road sign pointing straight to satan's cage

I Won't Send Roses From "Mack & Mabel" Composer(s): Jerry Herman and multiple other artists
Mack: I won't send roses Or hold the door I won't remember Which dress you wore My heart is too much in control The lack of romance in my soul Will turn you grey, kid So stay away, kid Forget my shoulder When you're in need Forgetting birthdays Is guaranteed And should I love you, you would be The last to know I won't send roses And roses suit you so
My pace is frantic My temper's cross With words romantic I'm at a loss I'd be the first one to agree That I'm preoccupied with me And it's inbred, kid So keep your head, kid In me you'll find things Like guts and nerve But not the kind of things That you deserve And so while there's a fighting chance Just turn and go I won't send roses And roses suit you so

I know you're tired of being all I ever wanted You no longer feel the love I have for you What happens now, what will I do with all the mem'ries And the dreams of all the things we'll never do
But I won't mention it again I won't think about tomorrow Just let it happen Live each hour, day by day But let me tell you before you go How much I love you Then I won't mention it again I won't mention it again
I feel my life has reached an early sign of autumn In my heart the leaves are falling, love is cold And everything that once was warm and new is gone now Leaving nothing but this hunger in my soul
But I won't mention it again I won't think about tomorrow Just let it happen Live each hour, day by day But let me tell you before you go How much I love you Then I won't mention it again I won't mention it again
But let me tell you before you go How much I love you Then I won't mention it again I won't mention it again

I Won't Last A Day Without You Composer(s): Roger Nichols; Paul Williams First release by: The Carpenters - 1972 Covered by multiple other artists
Day after day I must face a world of strangers Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to Who will always care, you're always there
When there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you
So many times when the city seems to be without a friendly face A lonely place It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you And you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile
When there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you
Touch me and I end up singing Troubles seem to up and disappear You touch me with the love you're bringing I can't really lose when you're near
If all my friends have forgotten half their promises They're not unkind, just hard to find One look at you and I know that I could learn to live Without the rest, I found the best
When there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you
When there's no getting over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you
