Shirley Mae Jones (born March 31, 1934) is an American singer and actress of stage, film and television. In her six decades of show business, she has starred as wholesome characters in a number of well-known musical films, such as Oklahoma! (1955), Carousel (1956), and The Music Man (1962). She won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for playing a vengeful prostitute in Elmer Gantry (1960). She played the lead role of Shirley Partridge, the widowed mother of five children, in the musical situation-comedy television series The Partridge Family (1970–74), which co-starred her real-life stepson David Cassidy, son of Jack Cassidy.
Jones was born on March 31, 1934, in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, to Methodist parents Marjorie (née Williams), a homemaker, and Paul Jones, owners of the Jones Brewing Company. Jones' paternal grandfather came from Wales. She was named for child star Shirley Temple. The family later moved to the small nearby town of Smithton, Pennsylvania. Jones began singing at the age of six in the Methodist Church choir and took voice lessons from Ralph Lewando. Upon attending South Huntingdon High School in Ruffs Dale, Pennsylvania, she participated in school plays. Afterwards, she frequently joined her father for a show at the Pittsburgh Playhouse.

Genres: Mystery,I felt the warmnest of your breath
It's hard to tell, is it now or then...
Our past our life so far apart
never to question never to ask why...
Chorus
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire..
until you came along from where, I don't know..
When sunlight shines on your face
my heart race to the other place..
where we met so long ago...
Hold my hands promises to never let me go...
To sickness and in health...
Chorus
There has never been a lover ever
to satisfy my warmest desire...
Baby, Baby until you came along and sealed my
faith...
Father I ask of you to make it last
just long enough until I can feel
That lift you once blessed us with once before..
My true love have looked me in the eyes again
for this last time...
Chorus repeat two times
The pleasure I feel from this lover that has never been..A lover ever, a lover ever to love me like you,
