I am looking for Names of Songs.

I will give you a hint to the Name of each Song by posting a line taken verbatim from that particular song. It may not be a complete sentence or lyric but it will not be chopped, edited, abbreviated, etc. (I am using three different sites for my source of lyrics.)

All songs have appeared in Billboards Top 100 and Hot 100 countdown. No obscure songs by obscure bands.

EDIT: This time all songs in this quiz have the word “sun” in the title.

Good luck and have fun!

1. “Forget that love’s a game”
2. “Give you my dawn surprise”
3. “Chaos makes perfect sense”
4. “We eat and drink”
5. “I know it’s just a song”
6. “The right romantic line”
7. "I feel like I’m winning "
8. “I think that you know what I mean”
9. “A tale sure to make you”
10. “And I saw what I had”

They weren’t that hard, I knew 8 of them off the top and had to think about the others. Sorry.
