Kisses (The Sweetest Kisses Of All)
Kisses (The Sweetest Kisses Of All)
Composer(s): Alex Sullivan; Lynn Cowan
Ever since the world began
kisses have been tempting man
though the kisses have helped to make history
it's funny different they can be
Every one just love to kiss, every lad and every miss
though many are bashful, we know, it's true
they love their hugs and kisses too
There's the kiss that you get from baby
there's the kiss that you get from dad
there's the kiss that you get from mother
that's the first real kiss you had
there's the kiss of a tender meeting
other kisses you recall
but the kisses I get from you sweetheart
are the sweetest kisses of all

Twins
Twins
Composer(s): L. Smokey Bates - Skip Scarborough
Performer(s): Philip Bailey & Little Richard
What happened to you
Hey I could feel it
I smile and cry
Without knowing why
The join the pain would be so real
I felt like my life was happening to me
And now I know, its cause you're part of me
Was it my choice, it was meant to be
We were connected even when apart
We got together right from the start
Twins, united that's how it is
When you're twins, the magic just never ends
If one day is good then two is better
I can't complain cause I'm ahead of the game
Please pick the pain double the pleasure
I'm starting to feel my philosophy
Now we're not just your average family
We got better this suppose people never seen
And if I had a chance to live and again
I wouldn't want it unless I was your twin
Twins, united that's how it is
When you're twins, the magic just never ends

I Won't Hold You Back
I Won't Hold You Back
Composer(s): Steve Lukather
Performer(s): Toto
and multiple other artists
If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can't erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
Now you're gone, I'm really not the same
I guess I have myself to blame
Time can't erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one instead
You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
Now that I'm alone it gives me time to think about the years that
you were mine
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared
You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found (Listen to me baby)
You know I can't hold you back now
You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
(Repeat)

Kisses In The Moonlight
Composer(s): Narada Michael Walden;
Preston Glass; Jeffrey Cohen
Performer(s): George Benson
Oh, what a night
Now don’t you feel like flyin’
Everything’s right
You can’t blame me for tryin’
Love, look up there
The stars are all aligned
Now don’t you think it’s time, ho, ho, ho
Closer to me
I want to feel your breathing permanently
‘Cause darling, I’m not leaving here
Till I get what I’ve been waiting for
Some twenty-five or more
That’s all I need, oh
Kisses in the moonlight, sugar
That would make this night complete
There have got to be
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, sugar
Fly away with me
Most of our days
We get so busy runnin’
Lost in a maze
We’ve got no time for fun and dreams
Every now and then
A dream is real
And this is how it feels, yeah, yeah
For once in your life
Forget about tomorrow
Tonight is the night
Our worries seems so far away
You’ll hold me in your arms
So tenderly
I only want a taste
Of your sweet, sweet, ooh
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, sugar
That would make this night complete
There have got to be
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, sugar
Fly away with me
Oh, fly away with me
Don’t let this night end right now
‘Cause in your arms is where I need to be
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
Kisses in the moonlight
And you know
Oh, oh, oh
Ooh
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, hey
That would make this night complete
There have got to be
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, sugar
Fly away with me
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, ho, baby, ho
That would make this night complete
There have got to be
Oh, kisses in the moonlight, sugar
Fly away with me
Oh, kisses in the moonlight

Twinkle, Twinkle, Lucky Star
Twinkle, Twinkle, Lucky Star
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
Performer(s): Merle Haggard; Lynn August
Twinkle, twinkle lucky star
Can you send me luck from where you are
Can you make a rainbow shine that far
Twinkle, twinkle lucky star
Can you really make a wish come true
And do you shine on just a chosen few
Is it over, have I gone to far
Twinkle, twinkle lucky star
Like two ships on the ocean, we drifted apart
And you found an island at sea
I'm still adrift with this pain in my heart
Won't you send her sweet love back to me
Twinkle, twinkle lucky star
Twinkle, twinkle lucky star
Can you send me luck from where you are
Can you make a rainbow shine that far
Twinkle, twinkle lucky star

I Won't Grow Up
I Won't Grow Up
Composer(s): Moose Charlap; Carolyn Leigh
Performer(s): Rickie Lee Jones
and multiple other artists
I won’t grow up
I don’t want to go to school
Just to learn to be a parrot
And recite a silly rule
If growing up means it would be
Beneath my dignity to climb a tree
I’ll never grow up, never grow up,
Never grow up! Not me! Not I! Not me!
I won’t grow up
I don’t want to wear a tie
And a serious expression
In the middle of July
And if it means I must prepare
To shoulder burdens with a worried air
I’ll never grow up, never grow up
Never grow up, not me! Not I! Not me!
So there!
Never gonna be a man! I won’t!
Like to see somebody try and make me
Anyone who wants to try and make me
turn me to a man
Catch me if you can!
I won’t grow up
Not a penny will I pinch
I will never grow a moustache
Or a fraction of an inch
Cause growing up is awfuller
Than all the awful things that ever were
I’ll never grow up, never grow up,
Never grow up, no sir! Not I! Not me! So there!
I won’t grow up!
I will never even try
I will do what Peter tells me
And I’ll never ask him why
We won’t grow up
We will never grow a day
And if someone tries to make us
We will simply run away
I won’t grow up
No, I promise that I won’t
I will stay a boy forever
Or be banished if I don’t
And Neverland will always be
The home of youth and joy and liberty
I’ll never grow up, never grow up
Never grow up, Not me! No sir! Not me!

Kisses Of Fire
Kisses Of Fire
Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Björn Ulvaeus
Performer(s): ABBA
Lay your head on my chest
so you hear every beat of my heart
Now there's nothing at all that can keep us apart
Touch my lips, close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Things that you do, and you know I'm crazy 'bout you
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I've had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire
When you sleep by my side I feel safe and I know I belong
Still it's making me scared that my love is so strong
Losing you is a nightmare fate and to me it's new
Never before did you see me begging for more
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I've had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
(I'm at the point of no returning)
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
I'm riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
(Caught in a land-slide of emotions)
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I'm at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions

Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone
Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone
Composer(s): Jay Graydon - Bernard Herrmann - Alan Paul
Performer(s): The Manhattan Transfer
When I hear this melody
This strange illusion takes over me
Through a tunnel of the mind
Perhaps a present or future time oh, oh
Out of nowhere comes this sound
This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round
Pyramidal locomotion
From a mystic unknown zone
Hearin' the twilight
Hearin' the twilight tone
Unpretentious girl from Memphis
Saw the future through her third eye
People came with skepticism
Picking, testing her precision, no, wo, oh, oh
Suddenly they heard this sound
This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round
A signpost up ahead is calling
Through the mystic unknown zone
Hearin' the twilight
Twilight swept away, feelin' the rhythm
Hearin' the twilight
Twilight swept away, ba da, loo da, ba da loo da
Hearin' the twilight
Twilight tone
Submitted for your approval
One Mr. Miller, who's about to take a trip into oddness and obsolescene
through a zone whose boundaries are that of imagination
Accompanying him on this journey is the mesmerizing sound of the Twilight Tone
On a cold & rainy night
One Mister Miller had a rare flight
Glen was up there boppin' a rhythm
Then the engine stopped to listen with him
Play that beat, oh, oh
Suddenly he heard this sound
This melody that keeps spinning 'round & 'round
Now he resides and plays trombone
In the mystic unknown zone
Hearin' the twilight
(Ooooooh, twilight)
Hearin' the twilight
(Hearin' the twilight)

I Won't Go Huntin' With You Jake (But I'll Go Chasin' Wimmin)
I Won't Go Huntin' With You Jake (But I'll Go Chasin' Wimmin)
Composer(s): Stuart Hamblen
Performer(s): Stuart Hamblen
and multiple other artists
Oh, it's springtime in the mountains and I'm full of mountain dew
Can't even read my catalog - like I used to do
I'm a-settin' in that little shed that's right back of the house
Here's comes old Jake with all the hounds; but he's gonna hear me shout
Oh, I won't go huntin' with you, Jake, but I'll go chasin' women
So put them hounds back in the pens and quit your silly grinnin'
Well, the moon is bright, and I'm half tight; my life is just beginnin'
I won't go huntin' with you, Jake, but I'll go chasin' women
Let's go down to the meetin' house and wait till they start home
Them gals that live on Possum Creek we'll always leave alone
We'll run them down the corn rows, them sassy little misses
We'll scare them pretty gals to death; we'll stop and throw 'em kisses
Now, go wash your face and comb your hair, 'cause it's durn near time to start
But let me tell you 'fore you go, there's one that's got my heart
Don't chase that gal with the yaller hair and wears a dress of green
For that little gal belongs to me, I know she's past sixteen
Now I was headed for the general store, when a silly thing I seen
They make 'em in the city - called a magazine
I turned to page thirty-two, and look at what I found
Them gals wear clothes that we ain't seen beneath them gingham gowns

Fred Hellerman; Pete Seeger
Performer(s): The Weavers;
and various other artists
Well, when I was a young man never been kissed
I got to thinkin' it over how much I had missed
So I got me a girl and I kissed her and then, and then
Oh, lordy, well I kissed 'er again
Chorus
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm, mmm, kisses sweeter than wine
(Sweeter than wine)
Well I asked her to marry and to be my sweet wife
I told her we'd be so happy for the rest of our life
I begged and I pleaded like a natural man
And then, whoops oh lordy, well she gave me her hand
Chorus
Well we worked very hard both me and my wife
Workin' hand-in-hand to have a good life
We had corn in the field and wheat in the bin
And then, whoops oh lord, I was the father of twins
Chorus
Well our children they numbered just about four
And they all had a sweetheart a'knockin' on the door
They all got married and they wouldn't hesitate
I was, whoops oh lord, the grandfather of eight
Chorus
Well now that I'm old and I'm a'ready to go
I get to thinkin' what happened a long time ago
Had a lot of kids, a lot of trouble and pain
But then, whoops oh lordy, well I'd do it all again
Because she had kisses sweeter than wine
She had, mmm…kisses…sweeter…than…wine

Twilight Time (The Three Suns)
Twilight Time
((Finnish Version: Kun Hämärtää (Fredi) - 1977))
Composer(s): Artie Dunn - Al Nevins - Morty Nevins
First release: The Three Suns - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists
Heavenly shades of night are falling, it's twilight time
Out of the mist your voice is calling, it's twilight time
When purple-colored curtains mark the end of day
I'll hear you, my dear, at twilight time
Deepening shadows gather splendor as day is done
Fingers of night will soon surrender the setting sun
I count the moments darling till you're here with me
Together at last at twilight time
Here, in the afterglow of day, we keep our rendezvous beneath the blue
Here in the same and sweet old way I fall in love again as I did then
Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me like days of old
Lighting the spark of love that fills me with dreams untold
Each day I pray for evening just to be with you
Together at last at twilight time
Here, in the afterglow of day, we keep our rendezvous beneath the blue
Here in the sweet and same old way I fall in love again as I did then
Deep in the dark your kiss will thrill me like days of old
Lighting the spark of love that fills me with dreams untold
Each day I pray for evening just to be with you
Together at last at twilight time
Together at last at twilight time

Run Joey Run
Composer(s): Perry Cone; Paul Vance
Performer(s): David Geddes
(Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me)
(Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married, just you wait and see)
She called me up, late last night, she said Joe, don't come over
My dad and I just had a fight, and he stormed out the door
I've never seen him act his this way, my God, he's going crazy
He says he's gonna make you pay, for what we've done, he's got a gun, so
Run Joey Run Joey Run
(Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me)
(Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married, just you wait and see)
I got in my car and I drove like mad, till I reached Julie's place
She ran to me, with tears in her eyes, and bruises on her face
All at once, I saw him there, sneaking up behind me, (Watch Out!)
Then Julie yelled, "He's got a gun", and she stepped in front of me
Suddenly, a shot rang out, and I saw Julie falling
I ran to her, I held her close, when I looked down
My hands were red, and here's the last words Julie said
(Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me)
(Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married)
(Aaaahhh-aaaahhhh. aaaahhhh-aaaahhhhh)

Twilight Time (The Moody Blues)
Twilight Time
Composer(s): Ray Thomas
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
Twilight time to dream awhile
In vales of deepening blue
As fantasy strides over colourful skies
Perform, disappearing from view
In twilight time
Dream with me awhile
A nightingale plays a dark mellow phrase
Of notes that are rich and so true
An aerial display by the firefly brigade
Dancing to tunes no-one knew
In twilight time
Dream with me awhile
In twilight time
Dream with me awhile
Building castles in the air
Whistling to the wind
As nature bows down her head
See what tomorrow brings
Twilight time
Dream with me awhile
Bats take to wing like puppets on string
Prancing through cool evening air
In a sightless glide, no reason to hide
From a wave of the sun's blinding stare

I Won't Dance
I Won't Dance
From the film "Roberta" (1935)
Composer(s): Jerome Kern; Dorothy Fields; Jimmy McHugh
Performer(s): Ginger Rogers & Fred Astaire
and multiple other artists
Ginger:
Think of what you're losing
By constantly refusing
To dance with me
You'd be the idol of France with me
And yet you stand there
And shake your foolish head rheumatically
While I wait here so ecstatically
You just look and say emphatically
Fred:
Not this season
There's a reason
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame, with you
My heart won't let my feet do things they should do
You know what?
You're lovely
Ginger:
So what? I'm lovely...
Ginger:
But oh, what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor
Ginger:
Ah, but when you dance you're charming and you're gentle
Especially when you do The Continental
Ginger:
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For heaven rest us
I'm not asbestos
And that's why...
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance
And if I hold you in my arms ...
I won't dance

Performer(s): U2
I look into his eyes
They're closed but I see something
A teacher told me why
I laugh when old men cry
My body grows and grows
It frightens me you know
The old man tried to walk me home
I thought he should have known
Twilight...
Twilight, lost my way
Twilight, can't find my way
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man
I'm running in the rain
I'm caught in a late night play
It's all; it's everything
I'm soaking through the skin
Twilight... darkened day
Twilight... lost my way
Twilight... night and day
Twilight... can't find my way
Can't find your way
Can't find my way
Can't find your way
Twilight... darkened day
Twilight... lost my way
Twilight... night and day
Twilight... can't find my way

In the shadow boy meets man
In the shadow boy meets man

I Won't Cry Anymore
I Won't Cry Anymore
Performer(s): Marvin Gaye
I won't cry anymore, now that you've left me
I won't cry anymore, now that you're gone
I've shed a million tears since we're apart
But tears can never mend a broken heart
I won't sigh anymore, I'll just forget you
And I'm closing the door of memories
Though you're the one love that my arms are longin' for
This is goodbye, I won't cry anymore
