Just thought I'd start a thread of guessing the song from the lyrics - they did it on a facebook group before and it was fun.
This isn't the easiest to start with:

"And I guess it took some time
For me to decide
If you were just my hero, or my friend?
Watching with my innocent eyes
Your silver stallion ride
Across my room I'd listen
As I cried.."
(cut to song title)

Other boys may turn me on
But I let temptation slide

I loved ya ooo loved ya for putting me down in a totally new way

Wow 5 pages since I was last on!
Ajumpeduppantryboy the band for Whistle down the wind was Haircut 100 (Nick Hayward).
I keep singing that Zoom song in my head recently (for lockdown reasons you can guess)
Here's one:

I look in the mirror and all I see
Is a young old man with only a dream
Am I just fooling myself
That she'll stop the pain
Living without her
I'd go insane

'The handshake seals the contract from the contract
There's no turning back
The turning point of a career in Korea, being insincere
The holiday was fun packed
The contract still intact'

No one guessed my last one Shock

Oh darling, why'd you talk so fast?
Another evening just flew past tonight
And now the daybreak's coming in
And I can't win and it ain't right
