The Look of Love by Burt Bacharach/Dusty Springfield

Burt Bacharach, who wrote this song, told Record Collector magazine: "I had Dusty sing that very sexy. Dusty was very open to suggestions. To listen to the vocal back with her she'd have to go into a control room to hear it. She wanted to hear it alone. She was very tough on herself. But she did a great job." 
This was not released as a single in the UK. 

The look of love Is in your eyes
The look your heart can't disguise
The look of love Is saying so much more
Than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
You've got the look of love It's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight Let this be just the start
Of so many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow
And then seal it with a kiss I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
Don't ever go I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so

Moondance by Van Morrison

Van Morrison is not known for giving long and wordy explanations of his songs believing that the music should stand for itself, in fact rather than an explanation of the creative process the liner notes for the original vinyl release of his critically acclaimed 1970 album ‘Moondance’ his girlfriend wrote a fable of an ancient artist who cured his love with the healing power of song. Unbelievably in this day and age of mp3 downloads, the title song wasn’t released as a single for another seven and a half years!

Written in 1969, legendary producer Lewis Merenstein helped Van Morrison blend a sweet jazz swing overlaid with a flute and acoustic guitar into a simple, romantic love song set under an Autumn moon. Despite only charting at number 92 in the Billboard top 100 it has lasted to become a perennial favourite of lovers everywhere!So tune into LoveSongs247, take hold of your partner and have just one more ‘Moondance’ with your love! 


Well, it's a marvelous night for a moondance 
With the stars up above in your eyes 
A fantabulous night to make romance 
Neath the cover of October skies 
And all the leaves on the trees are falling 
To the sound of the breezes that blow 
And I'm trying to please to the calling 
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low 
And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush 
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush 
Chorus: 
Can I just have one a more moondance with you, my love 
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love 
Well, I wanna make love to you tonight I can't wait 'til the morning has come 
And I know that the time is just right 
And straight into my arms you will run 
And when you come my heart will be waiting 
To make sure that you're never alone 
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear 
There and then I will make you my own 
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside 
And I know how much you want me that you can't hide 
Chorus 
Repeat 1st verse 
One more moondance with you in the moonlight 
On a magic night La, la, la, la in the moonlight 
On a magic night 
Can't I just have one more dance with you my love

The song also earned a Grammy award nomination during the 43rd Grammy Awards for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The music video to accompany the song was directed by Stuart Gosling in December 1999, in Los Angeles and follows each of the band members separately until the instrumental break and final choruses an, darker in tone than any of their previous releases, touches on several of the band’s real-life issues, such as the death of a loved one. 

Show me the meaning of being lonely 
So many words for the broken heart 
It's hard to see in a crimson love 
So hard to breathe 
Walk with me, and maybe 
Nights of light so soon become 
Wild and free I could feel the sun 
Your every wish will be done 
They tell me 
[Chorus:] 
Show me the meaning of being lonely 
Is this the feeling I need to walk with 
Tell me why I can't be there where you are 
There's something missing in my heart 
Life goes on as it never ends 
Eyes of stone observe the trends 
They never say forever gaze upon me 
Guilty roads to an endless love (endless love) 
There's no control Are you with me now? 
Your every wish will be done 
They tell me 
[Chorus] 
There's nowhere to run I have no place to go 
Surrender my heart, body, and soul 
How can it be You're asking me 
To feel the things you never show? 
You are missing in my heart 
Tell me why can't I be there where you are? 
[Chorus]

Released in 1968 by The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah band, a British band created by the art-school denizens of the1960s that combined elements of music hall, traditional jazz, psychedelic pop, surreal humour and avant-garde art who came to the attention of the British public through the 1968 comedy ‘ Do Not Adjust Your Set’, “I’m the Urban Spaceman” was the band’s most successful single. 
I'm the urban space man, baby; 
I've got speed I've got everything 
I need I'm the urban spaceman, baby; I
Ican fly I'm a supersonic guy I don't need pleasure 
I don't feel pain If you were to knock me down 
I'd just get up again I'm the urban spaceman, baby; 
I'm makin' out I'm all about 
(instrumental) 
I wake up every morning with a smile upon my face 
My natural exuberance spills out all over the place 
I'm the urban spaceman, I'm intelligent and clean 
Know what I mean? 
I'm the urban spaceman, as a lover second to none 
It's a lot of fun I never let my friends down 
I've never made a boob I'm a glossy magazine, an advert in the tube 
I'm the urban spaceman, baby; here comes the twist-- 
I don't exist
