Yet Another Lyrics Quiz

This one should be easy.....
Identify title and author of the songs containing the following excerpts:

1.	...you let go of my hand, and left me here facing the wall
2.	So strike another match and have another cup of wine...
3.	...on Hornschmeyer's island, you're not the same at all
4.	...seven virgins and a mule...
5.	Sie wuergen Gurgeln so gelassen, wie mann ein Tau ins Mastwerk schlingt.
	(They throttle throats as calmly as splice a line into the riggings)
6.	...here's a man still working for your smile
7.	I swear on the wet head of my first case of gonorrhea
8.	there goes another rubber tree plant!
9.	fancy gloves, though, wears MacHeath...
10.	Cancel my subscription to the resurrection,...
11.	'Cause it's cold, and your lips might freeze
12.	I'm an ordinary man -- who requires nothing more than...
13.	Boy, you've got the motion down...
14.	I always fill my ballroom, the event is never small...
15.	I was so afraid to touch her, thought she was too young to know...
16.	...I am obsessed and deranged, I have existed for years...
17.	Tell me what you come here for, boy...
18.	Never could stand that dog...
19.	The bishop in disguise wants to tweak your thighs...
20.	Jesus cooked good barbeque, the kind that burns your mouth

Yours in a sinister way,

Azhrarn

Ok, let's see if I can do one of these lyrics quiz things.
One point each for Performer, Song, Album.  Bonus points for
flames about lyrics quizzes being a stupid waste of time.

1.  "Into dreams of other days they fade away."
2.  "Your eyes are shining on a beam through the galaxy of love."
3.  "I've got to face what's never there."
4.  "They give you the highest of all the spirits, the Holy Spirit."
5.  "Here we are Father, your Holy Ghosts."
6.  "Welcome to a special place, in a heart of stone that's cold and grey."
7.  "The time has come to wonder who could be the owner of that cold
     clammy hand that's exploring the end of the bed."
8.  "You just tied me to the mast of the ship of fools".
9.  "If love opens all these keys, why can't I be free?"
10. "The beams become my dream; my dream is on the screen."

I'll post scores (if any) in a few weeks.
