Twistin' Postman
Composer(s): Brian Holland - Robert Bateman - William "Mickey" Stevenson
Performer(s): The Marvelettes



Sitting by the window, feeling sad & blue 
All because I haven't heard from you 
& then my mama said "Look! Look! 
Here comes the postman twistin' down the avenue 
He's got a letter in his hand 
& I know it has to be for you 
He's got the mail sack twisted 'round his back 
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman)" 

Now he's a-twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right 
Twistin' all round & round 
If he didn't bring the letter to make me feel better 
I was gonna put you down 
I'm so glad he came in time to ease this achin' heart of mine 
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman) 

Mail sack swingin' 'round his back 
'Cause he's a... 

(Twistin' postman) 

Uh huh! He's a twistin' postman! Look at him go! 
Twistin', twistin'! 

He's got the mail sack twisted 'round his back 
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman)" 

Twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right 
Twistin' all round & round 
If he didn't bring the letter to make me feel better 
I was gonna put you down 
I'm so glad he came in time to ease this achin' heart of mine 
'Cause he's a (twistin' postman) 

"Look! Look! Here comes the mailman twistin' down the avenue 
He's got a letter in his hand & I know it has to be for you"...

I Would Like
French Title: Je Voudrais
Performer(s): Jeanine Deckers (aka The Singing Nung)



I'd like to be just like the wind
singing everywhere
I'd like to be just like the wind
dancing everywhere
Like the wind that praises the Lord
Like the wind

I'd like to be like the white cloud
Fluffy in the sky
I'd like to be like the white cloud
In the sun
Like the cloud that seaches for the Lord
Facing You....

I'd like to be like the flame
from a wood fire
I'd like to be like the flame
from a wood fire
Just like the flame that rises, Lord
Dancing for You

I'd like to be like a guitar
A singing heart
I'd like to be like a quitar
A vibrant heart
Like a guitar that You fill with the strength
Of Your song

Kiss Of Fire
Composer(s): A.G. Vilodo; Lester Allen; Robert Hill
Performer(s): Georgia Gibbs;
and various other artists



I touch your lips and all at once the sparks go flying
Those devil lips that know so well the art of lying
And though I see the danger, still the flame grows higher
I know I must surrender to your kiss of fire

Just like a torch, you set the soul within me burning
I must go on, I'm on this road of no returning
And though it burns me and it turns me into ashes
My whole world crashes without your kiss of fire

I can't resist you, what good is there in trying?
What good is there denying you're all that I desire?
Since first I kissed you my heart was yours completely
If I'm a slave, then it's a slave I want to be
Don't pity me, don't pity me

Give me your lips, the lips you only let me borrow
Love me tonight and let the devil take tomorrow
I know that I must have your kiss although it dooms me
Though it consumes me, your kiss of fire

(Instrumental Break)

Since first I kissed you my heart was yours completely
If I'm a slave, then it's a slave I want to be
Don't pity me, dDon't pity me

Give me your lips, the lips you only let me borrow
Love me tonight and let the devil take tomorrow
I know that I must have your kiss although it dooms me
Though it consumes me......your kiss of fire!!!

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 

I Would Be In Love (Anyway)
Composer(s): Bob Gaudio; Jake Holmes
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



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 



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

Venetian Blue
Composer(s): Shawn Colvin; Leventhal
Performer(s): Shawn Colvin



It still hasn't snowed in a lifetime
And I am still frozen in time
Where did you come from?
How could you leave
And why can't you be mine?

I'm caught in between a lifeline
And a love so deep I will drown
Let it pour like silver
In this empty room
And wear this memory down

So come to me soon and I'll hold you
We'll be eye to eye, skin to skin
And I'll stroke the fire
Of this cruel December
Until I see you again

Then I'll lay you down in May
I'll have my way with you
The water town
Is raining down
Pools of Venetian Blue

Let it pour like silver
In this empty room
Pools of Venetian Blue

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

----------


As sung by Mary Martin:



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

Refrain

Martin:
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 diff'rence what the neighbors think?

Chorus:
Let the baby linger on the brink
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

Chorus and Martin:
That my heart belongs to you

Chorus:
So, Daddy, please remember this
That tomorrow starts a life of bliss

Girl:
Let me show them what they're gonna miss

Chorus:
Kiss the boys goodbye

Reprise

Martin:
Oh, Daddy, let me stay out late
Can't the baby kinda celebrate?
Beat me, Daddy, with an old whisk broom
Kiss the boys goodbye
Oh, Daddy, let me wear the mink
I don't know the words, but I think
We'll stick around and go to town
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

No, 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

Kiss You All Over
Composer(s): Mike Chapman; Nicky Chinn
Performer(s): Exile;

When I get home, babe, gonna light your fire
All day I've been thinkin' about you, babe
You're my one desire

Gonna wrap my arms around you
Hold you close to me
Oh, babe I wanna taste your lips
I wanna fill your fantasy, yeah

I don't what I'd do without you, babe
Don't know where I'd be
You're not just another lover
No, you're everything to me

Ev'rytime I'm with you, baby
I can't believe it's true
When you're layin' in my arms 'n' you do the things you do

You can see it in my eyes
I can feel it in your touch
You don't have to say a thing
Just let me show how much
Love you, need you, yeah

I wanna kiss you all over
And over again
I wanna kiss you all over
Till the night closes in
Till the night closes in

Stay with me, lay with me, holding me, loving me, baby
Here with me, near with me, feeling you close to me, baby

So show me, show me ev'rything you do
'cause baby no one does it quite like you

Love you, need you, oh, babe

I wanna kiss you all over
And over again
I wanna kiss you all over
Till the night closes in
Till the night closes in
Till the night closes in
Till the night closes in

I Won't Mention It Again
Composer(s): Cam Mullins
Performer(s): Ray Price
and multiple other artists



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
