Hi fourtopsfan, I had a go but I couldn't make out a few bits. Here's what I got:

Like a man belong [?] in darkness cannot bear the light
These weary eyes of mine still aren't seeing right
So let me touch you, darling, let my fingers testify
That you are really [?]

Kiss me, baby, let me taste the honey in your kiss
Smile for me the smile so warm and tender that I miss
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby, that your love's still mine
Speak my name like you used to do in summertime

I absolutely love this song by Chuck and this version also sounds excellent even though it’s only partial and the sound quality is not great. Interesting also that there's a connection to the Vietnam war in Ivy Jo's version.

Anyway, hope that helps fourtopsfan! :D

Thank you. I can hear some of those now. Hope we get some more takers.

Thank-you. I've been trying for 3 years. I think one part may be THAT YOU WERE FEELING HERE WITH LIFE GIRL AND SO AM I where you put the question mark.

Hi fourtopsfan, I had a go but I couldn't make out a few bits. Here's what I got:

Like a man TOO LONG in darkness cannot bear the light
These weary eyes of mine still aren't seeing right
So let me touch you, darling, let my fingers testify
That you are really [?]...


I hope that that small phrase helps.

These weary eyes of mine still aren't seeing right
So let me touch you, darling, let my fingers testify
That you are really HERE ALIVE, GIRL AND SO AM I

Kiss me, baby, let me taste the honey in your kiss
Smile for me the smile so warm and tender that I miss
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby, that your love's still mine
Speak my name like you used to do in summertime
:D

At least that's what I'm hearing

Wow. I'm definitely gonna re play it over and over. Thank you for your take on this.

I'm hearing this line a little differently but cannot make out one word

Kiss me, baby, KISS ME, BABE..... in your kiss
Smile for me the smile so warm and tender that I miss
Tell me, baby, tell me, baby, that your love's still mine
Speak my name like you used to do in summertime[/QUOTE]
