GOLDEN OLDIES LYRICS QUIZ #458 (GOLQ458)
Welcome to GOLQ458, a quiz with a common theme that applies to all 27 songs.
The theme should be relatively easy to identify, and I believe the main quiz is
relatively easy, with the exception of what I consider to be one real stumper
and two medium stumpers. Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm in love
Who looks at you the way I do
#01)
I was strolling in the park
I was happy as a little lark and
Then I got a big surprise
#02)
See my daddy in bed a-dyin'
See his hair been turnin' gray
#03)
But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
#04)
We see the banker sitting, waiting for a trim
#05)
Bye bye, so long
Mother's gotta go now
La la la, la la la
#06)
You got your high heel sneakers on
And your slippin' mules
You're more than alright
#07)
When you come home from the dance
Stand in the hall and make a romance
When you do the thing you shouldn't do
#08)
We've been together for a long, long time
And yet they're tryin' so very hard to pull us apart
But we don't care what they say
We're gonna keep on lovin' this way
#09)
In an hour or two
I would whisper, "I do"
#10)
I look at you and see the passion eyes of May
(Eyes of May)
#11)
Come on, baby, don't be stubborn
'Cause just for you I got plenty lovin'
Oo-wee, baby, can't you see I'm in love with you
You, no one but you
#12)
All the guys from the neighborhood
Keep sayin', "You sure look good"
#13)
I stood there, shivering in my pajamas
And watched the whole world go up in flames
#14)
When through a sleepy haze I see her lying there
#15)
She's never never been in love
She's never been in the moonlight, watching the stars above
#16)
Take a deep breath (ah ah)
Open your heart (open your heart)
And whisper (I love you, I love you)
Tell me you love me (you love me)
Tell me you love me (you love me)
You love me (you love me)
You love me
#17)
People now are craning their necks to see her
#18)
Yet today, my love has flown away
I am without my love
(Without my love)
#19)
Within my arms you'll come to know
Other loves may come and go
But my love for you will be eternally
Look around, and you will see
#20)
Got me peepin', got me hidin'
Got me peep, hide, hide, peep, any way you wanna let it roll
#21)
So remember if you're untrue
Angels up in heaven are looking at you
#22)
I guess I'll never see the light
I get the blues most every night
#23)
And she sure looked swell
I told her that I loved her, I'd never leave
She put her arms around me, gave me fever
#24)
We met by the lamp where the newsboy cried
He stole my heart with his laughing eyes
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
Statues made of match sticks crumble into one another
My love winks, she does not bother
She knows too much to argue or to judge
#T1)
Well, if I'd a-known the Capt'n was blind, Darlin', Darlin'
If I'd a-known the Capt'n was blind, Darlin', Darlin'
If I'd a-known the Capt'n was blind
I wouldn't-a gone to work 'til half past nine, Darlin', Darlin'
#T2)
