I missed the start of this discussion, but the subject line is clear
enough.  My favorite is "When Shadows Fall (O'er The Canyon Wall)",
by a lyricist whose name, if I remember right, was Applegarth:

	When shadows fall
	O'er the canyon wall
	And night birds call
	In the pine trees tall,
	The moonbeams bright
	From the god of night
	Come softly gleaming and beaming
	Where lovely maids sit dreaming,
	Whisp'ring, "Lo, 'tis time for mating,
	Don't be slow, thy love is waiting,
	Haste oh haste, no time to waste,
	Fond hearts are burning with yearning for thee."

The copyright on this mess has probably expired, but I can't swear to it ...
