TEMPTATION

TEMPTATION

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You came, I was alone
I should have known
You were temptation

You sigh, leading me on
I should have known
You were temptation

It would be thrilling
If you were willing
But if it can never be
Well, then pity me

You were born to be kissed
I can't resist
You are temptation

I'm yours, here is my heart
Take it away, we'll never part
I'm just a slave, only a slave

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

THAT SILVER HAIRED DADDY OF MINE

THAT SILVER HAIRED DADDY OF MINE

In a vine covered shack in the mountains
Bravely fighting the battle of time
Is a dear one who's weathered my sorrows
'Tis that silver haired daddy of mine

If I could recall all the heartaches
Dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear
If I could erase those lines from your face
And bring back the gold to your hair

If God would but grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone
To that silver haired daddy of mine

I know it's too late, dear old daddy
To repay for those sorrows and cares
Though dear mother is waiting in heaven
Just to comfort and solace you there

If I could recall all the heartaches
Dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear
If I could erase those lines from your face
And bring back the gold to your hair

If God would but grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own, if I could but atone
To that silver haired daddy of mine

THAT'LL BE THE DAY

THAT'LL BE THE DAY

Well that'll be the day
When you say good-bye
Yes that'll be the day
When you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave
You know it's a lie
'cause that'll be the day
When I die

Well you give me all your lovin
And your turtle dovin'

A all your hugs and kisses and your money too
Well uh you know you love me baby
Still you tell me maybe
That someday well I'll be blue

Well oh when cupid shot his dart
He shot it at your heart
So if we ever part then I'll leave you
You sit and hold me and you
Tell me boldly
That someday well I'll be blue

THAT'S JUST TOO MUCH

THAT'S JUST TOO MUCH

Your lips that once thrilled me
Now frown and disagree
Your words have lost that tender touch
That's just too much
To take
Too much

Your arms that once held me
Feel cold and just chill me
Somehow they've lost their tender touch
That's just too much
To bear
Too much

Could I have been so young and blind
To think you loved me all this time

Your lips that once thrilled me
Now frown and disagree
Your words have lost that tender touch
That's just too much
To take
Too much
To bear
Too much

THAT'S OLD FASHIONED

THAT'S OLD FASHIONED

We hold hands in the movie show
So they say that we?re old fashioned
Or we stroll beneath the silvery moon
And we carve our initials in the old oak tree
That?s old fashioned, that?s the way love should be

We enjoy sitting side by side
In the booth in the ice-cream parlour
Where we play the nickelodeon
And we dance when we hear our favourite melody
That?s old fashioned, that?s the way love should be

It?s a modern changing world
Everything is moving fast
But when it comes to love I like
What they did in the past

I?m the kind who loves only one
So the boys say I?m old fashioned
Let them laugh, honey I don?t mind
I?ve made plans for a wedding day for you and me
That?s old fashioned, that?s the way love should be

THAT'S TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE

THAT'S TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE

The girl I loved most all my life
Just told me she'd be my wife
Now we can live our whole life through, together
But that's too good, to be true
We'll get married in the spring
I just bought a wedding ring
Now I just heard her say "I do, forever"
But that's too good, to be true
Love I give with every kiss
No tear stained my happiness
Now we are one no longer two, my darling
But that's too good, to be true
Then one day she went away
Told me she had gone to stay
Now she is back saying she'll be true, again dear
But that's too good, to be true

THAT'S WHAT YOU DO TO ME

THAT'S WHAT YOU DO TO ME

Bom do-dee bom do-dee bom bom bom ba do-dee
That's what you doin' to me
Bom do-dee bom do-dee bom bom bom ba do-dee
That's what you doin' to me

No matter where I go, no matter what I do
Your face is all I see
Since our first date, I can't think straight
Well that's what you do to me

I walk around with my head in a whirl
Like a ship on a stormy sea
I look into your eyes and I'm, hypnotised
Well, that's what you do to me

Oh, for your love
I'd pay cupid to give you a shove
It's so plain to see
Everyone knows what you're doin' to me

I'd like to tell you how I feel
But oh, golly-gee
My voice gets weak, when I try to speak
Well that's what you do to me

Oh for your love
I'd pay cupid to give you a shove
It's so plain to see
Everyone knows what you're to me

I'd like to tell you how I feel
But oh golly gee
My voice gets weak when I try to speak
Well that's what you do to me

Bom do-dee bom do-dee bom bom bom ba do-dee
That's what you do to me
Bom do-dee bom do-dee bom bom bom ba do-dee
That's what you do to me
Bom do-dee bom do-dee bom bom bom ba do-dee

THE COLLECTOR

THE COLLECTOR

I'm a collector of beautiful things
I capture and keep them
And pin down their wings
Red butterflies
Green dragonflies
Pretty blue beetles
But she will be
My most precious prize

I'm a collector of beautiful things
I capture and keep them
And pin down their wings

No longer free
She begs to be free
With no-one to help her
She'll learn to care
Depending on me

No longer free
She begs to be free
With no-one to help her
She'll learn to care
Depending on me

I'm a collector of beautiful things

THE DOLL HOUSE IS EMPTY

THE DOLL HOUSE IS EMPTY

Once you used to play a game called break a heart a day
Little boys were only toys that you would toss away
Now you want them back again, but they don't wanna play
The doll house is empty

All the soldiers marched away and they've deserted you
Even all your puppets cut their strings and left you too
You've run out of playthings and you don't know what to do
The doll house is empty

A boy is not a wind-up toy
You play with once and then destroy
Love's not something from a Five and Ten
Boys and toys are not the same
And you're the only one to blame

If your playmates don't come back again
Now you know the reason no one wants you anymore
You are not the little girl that you were once before
Childhood days are over and the writing's on the door
The doll house is empty, now.

THE FERRIS WHEEL

THE FERRIS WHEEL

I'll ride the roller coaster or the carousel
I like the spider and the diving bell
But since she's gone I don't like so well
The Ferris Wheel

I'll ride the rock-o plane or the Tilter-Whirl
It wasn't on these rides I lost my girl
Way up high is where I lost her
On the Ferris Wheel

Pretty Ferris Wheel
By your coloured lights
I saw someone steal
A kiss from her that night

I'll pay my fare and ride the bumper cars
Those funny cars won't make the teardrops start
But way up there is where she broke my heart
On the Ferris Wheel
On the Ferris Wheel
On the Ferris Wheel...
