Name the song the line is from Part II

Run to Him by Bobby Vee

Footnote:

Song For A Winters Night was originally sung and written by Gordon Lightfoot


Ok here is one for ya,sung by a guy that grew up a couple of miles from me,
I prayed to the Lord to send me a love
He sent me an angel from heaven above
The stars in the sky He placed in her eyes ...

If your screen name didn't suggest that you're from Motown, Bob, I might have guessed it by now.

Pretty sure that's Jack Scott, with My True Love.


How 'bout this (not Motown):

The heavenly touch of your embrace
Tells me no one will take your place


Young Love,sung by Sonny James,among others.

Jack Scott actually was born in Hazel Park, Michigan just a short drive down 8 mile from where I grew up! Bob

How about this one:

I fell for you and I knew
The vision of your love-loveliness
I hoped and I pray that someday
I'll be the vision of your hap-happiness


Good one, Bob!

That be Earth Angel, by The Penguins.

Back in a moment with new lyrics. I'm workin' on 'em, honest.


OK, from 1973. Some might say there's a tie to Motown here, but not a strong one in my opinion.

It was #3 US, #27 UK:


A-checkin' out the halls
Makin' sure the coast is clear
Lookin' in the stalls
No, there ain't nobody here


Jim, I actually have no idea about your lyrics, lol. But from reading them, the first thing that popped into my mind was "Smokin' in the Boys' Room." Is it possible that's it?

Good job, Sue!

That's it, alright.

"With 4 hungry children and crops in the field"
Good one, Sue. Those lines are from “Lucille” by Kenny Rogers. That reminds me of my brother misunderstanding that one line. He thought it was, “With 400 children and a crop in the field”. Oh how I laughed before I corrected him.

Here’s one:

Don’t you remember the day
that you went away and left me?
