THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE: Your Husband, My Wife
(songwriting credits unavailable)
She knows I am true
But what she don't know is I'm true to only you
Tell me, where does it stop?
Does he know his married life is on the rot?
Now before you say you want me for the rest of your life
What are we gonna do about your husband?
& what are we gonna do about my wife?
Sneak to your side
In the darkness where my faithfulness must hide
Knowing I'll forever taste
All the tears I'll put upon my children's face
Now before I say I want you for the rest of my life
What are we gonna do about your husband?
& what are we gonna do about my wife?
Should we stop & look around
Let's think about the hearts we'll be breakin'
& though we want each other, need each other & love each other
Think about the move we are makin'
Baby, don't get right
No matter what, we'll never never say goodbye
& I, I promise you this:
Though she wears my ring you'll always have my kiss
Don't ask for marriage; we can't pay the price
'Cause you don't really wanna hurt your husband
& I don't really wanna hurt my wife (your wife)
Oh we'd better stop, think it over, baby
Oh what are we gonna do now?
Now you've got to help me, baby

THE CRESTS: Trouble In Paradise
(songwriting credits unavailable)
(x2):
Calling all angels, calling all angels, calling all angels oo---ou
There's trouble in paradise
My turtle doves changing wings
There's trouble in paradise
The birds no longer sing
Some devil told my angel alot of lies
& now my tears are falling
Like raindrops from the sky
There's trouble in paradise
The stars no longer shine
There's trouble in paradise
'Cause she's no longer mine
That devil told my angel I'd been untrue
Won't somebody help me please
Tell me me what to do
Bridge:
Mr. Moon, Mr. Sun
Tell her she's the only one
Guide her with your lovely light
Back into my arms tonight
There's trouble in paradise
& heaven's not the same
The angels sit & cry
They say it's such a shame
They'd like our love to be just like before
Then the trouble in paradise will be no more
(repeat bridge)
(repeat & fade):
Calling all angels, calling all angels

There are diamonds, pearls, emeralds & rings
