The Duke and the Prez were there before The past you can't ignore The torch is lit, we'll keep the flame And the melody remains the same In the 40's A night in tunisia In the 40's A night in tunisia In the 40's A night in tunisia In the 40's A night in tunisia Night Moods Written by Jerry Ragovoy CHORUS: Night moods, I love your night moods Night moods, You've got the right moods When you're lying here beside me Ooh you take my breath away Baby I feel such love inside me I'm so glad you're going to stay Night moods, night moods Got a need as deep as a canyon I'm so glad I found my soul companion I love your night moods I'm in the right mood I love your night moods Night time is the right time Night time is the one time I'm loving you Loving you All day long I'm thinking of And I just can't wait 'til the sun goes down I can't help it, how I love it Count the moments 'til you come 'round Night moods, night moods Ain't no use in talkin' about it All I know is that I can't live without it I love your night moods I'm in the right mood I love your night moods Night time is the right time Right now is the one time I'm close to you Close to you Got a need as deep as a canyon I'm so glad I found my soul companion Night moods, I love your night moods Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night) Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night) Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night) Night moods (I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it at night) Heed The Warning Written by Chaka Khan, Mark Stevens, Ellison Chase and Arthur Jacobsen There are so many things in life to know Cause someone says it's right don't make it so This is someone somewhere who's taking notes There's someone telling lies sowing wild oats When you are moving fast, you can succeed Just how long can you last at twice the speed CHORUS: Here's a warning: two wrongs don't make a right Heed the warning, and everything will be alright I'll keep good meter, and I'll take my time I'll try to stay in beat and live in rhyme I know from love I came, to love I'll go I'll live and learn and love and try to grow When you are moving fast, you can succeed Just how long can you last at twice the speed Father He Said Written by Deborah Ash and Michael Campagna Father's waiting 'round the corner Ticket in his hand Wants to help his daughter Protect and understand Daughter's needing some security The comfort of a man Can't face the pain of losing She's afraid to love again Searching for her father's words She remembered CHORUS: My father he said, "don't be misled." My father he said, "is heart in your hands?" (Way far, far away) Daughter's feelin' kinda shaky Heartache and trouble everywhere There ain't no love she's looking For someone who cares Searching for her father's words She remembered CHORUS (Take the train far, cooling down) Daughter's waiting at the station Got a ticket in her hand Bound for her destination She'll try to love again Searching for her father's words She remembered CHORUS Father, father, father CHORUS Father, father, father he said... Fate Written by F. Musker and D. Bugatti When you walked into my lonely life tonight I saw my destiny, I saw eternity tonight And the moment I held you I knew it What we do is decided before we do it CHORUS: Fate, this could only be Fate, I never thought I'd believe in Fate, now I understand It's part of the plan I was meant to be your woman Time stood still, and we lost on words to say And though the people stared, they seemed a million miles away Oh we knew it was love we were feeling We were destined to give it a whole new meaning CHORUS In my heart I feel I've loved you all my life I was in the dark, but now I think I've seen the light I rang like a bell with your laughter Something tells me I'll love you forever and ever BREAKDOWN: Fate (this could only be) It was fate (this could only be) It's part of the plan I was meant to be your woman (It's part of the plan) I'll love you forever and ever
