Summer night city
Money, money, money
Hmm, hmm, ...
Look at her face, it's a wonderful face
And it means something special to me
Look at the way that she smiles when she sees me
How lucky can one fellow be?
She's just my kind of girl, she makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she could be mine?
She's just my kind of girl, without her I'm blue
And if she ever leaves me what could I do, what could I do?
And when we go for a walk in the p...
Se dice que el ansioso
Esconde un alma en paz
Viajero o misionero
Va lejos mucho mas
Si miro hasta el cielo
O dentro mio, no se
Ya nada importa mucho
Si peudo con sinceridad
Saber que, lo intente
Como el mar y su creciente
Va la gente al andar
Como el viento y su corrida
Va la vida al andar
Como el sol a la manana
Que reclama el andar
Atesoro el momento
Vivo y siento, es mi intento
Y lo hago a...
Take it easy with me please
Touch me gently like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, andante
Just let the feeling grow
Make your fingers soft and light
Let your body be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul, you know how
Andante, andante
Go slowly with me now
I'm your music
I am your music and I am your song
I'm your song
I am your music and I am your song
Play me tim...
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aah
Ah-ha-ha
Keep thinking 'bout his angel eyes
I keep thinking, a-aah
Last night I was taking a walk along the river
And I saw him together with a young girl
And the look that he gave her made me shiver
'Cause he always used to look at me that way
Then I thought maybe I should walk right up to her
And say, "Ah-ha-ha, it's a game he likes to play"
Look into his an...
Day is dawning and I must go
You're asleep but still I'm sure, you'll know
Why it had to end this way
You and I had a groovy time
But I told you somewhere down the line
You would have to find me gone
I just have to move along
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained...
I'll never know why I had to go
Why I had to put up such a lousy, rotten show
Boy, I was smooth, packin' all my stuff
Sayin' I don't need you anymore, I've had enough
And now, look at me standing here again 'cause I found out that
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
My life is here
Gotta have you near
As good as new, my love for you
And keepin' it that way is my intention...
Vad ??r det att leva livet

Att finnas till det ??r f??r mig

Baby
You can do magic
Baby
Isn't it tragic
Maybe
You can do something I can't
And I can't get enough of it
Baby
You can do wonders
Maybe
You can do something I can't
So don't stop doing it
Don't stop doing it
Baby
You can do wonders
Making somebody happy is a question of give and take
You can learn how to show it so come on, give yourself a break
Every smile and every little touch
Don't you know that they mean so much
Sweet sweet kisses so tender
Always will return to sender
Like a bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Dum-be-dum-dum be-dum-be-dum-dum

Well, you hoot and you holler and you make me mad
And I've always been under your heel
Holy christ what a lousy deal
Now I'm sick and tired of your tedious ways
And I ain't gonna take it no more
Oh no no - walkin' out that door
Burning my bridges, cutting my tie
Once again I wanna look into the eye
Being myself
Counting my pride
No un-right neighbour's gonna take me for a ride
Burning my bridg...
Down in the street they're all singing and shouting
Staying alive though the city is dead
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter
While you are crying alone on your bed
Pity Cassandra that no one believed you
But then again you were lost from the start
Now we must suffer and sell our secrets
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawn...
Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong?
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather

Ya no hay mas sonrisa

I was up with the mornin' sun
Couldn't sleep so I thought I'd take a walk
I was thinkin' of you and me
And I went to your house 'cos I had to talk
I could hardly believe my eyes
When I saw this guy closing your front door
Had a feeling of emptiness
Like I've never had before
And I close my eyes
Will you leave me, girl
And I realize
It's a crazy world
As he disappeared in his car
I was stunned ...
I'm waitin' for you baby
I'm sitting all alone
I feel so cold without you
It chills me to the bone
I never thought you'd leave me
But now I know it's true
Oh Lord I'm blue
I'm cryin' over you
I'm waitin' for you baby
I'm sittin' all alone
I feel so cold without you
It chills me to the bone
I never thought you'd leave me
But now I know it's true
Oh Lord I'm blue
I'm cryin' over you
Cryin' over ...
Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the room
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after...
Oh, my love it makes me sad
Why did things turn out so bad?
Was it just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?
Baby, give me one more
Dance while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow
Dance and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow
Let's make it a memory, a night of our own
A thing to remember when we're all alone
So dance, it's our way to say goodbye
Yes, al...

You can dance, you can jive
Having the time of your life
Ooh see that girl, watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen
Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood f...
Changing, moving, in a circle
I can see your face in all of my dreams
Smiling, laughing, from the shadows
When I hear your voice, I know what it means
I know it doesn't matter just how hard I try
You're all the reason for my life
Disillusion, disillusions all you left for me
How can I forget you
When my world is breakin' down
You're all I had, you're all I want
Disillusion, disillusions now, t...
You're so hot, teasin' me
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
It's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does yo...
We're not the stars of a Hollywood movie
So what's the use to pretend
I'm not so charming and you're not so groovy
You've got to face it, my friend
Dream world, you've been living in a dream world
Trust me, you just can't escape from reality
Boy meets girl
Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, there you are
We're gonna make it together
And we've made it so far
So it can only get bet...
I can hear how you work, practising hard
Playin' night and day, woa-oh
And it sounds better now
Yes, you improve every time you play, woa-oh
But it's bad
You're so sad
And you're only smilin'
When you play your violin
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
To be so near and not just here
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
I think then maybe, you'd see me, baby
You'd be mine
And we'd be together all ...
They came flying from far away, now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell
They've seen places beyond my land and they've found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
Over mountains and f...

You hate, you scream, you swear
And still you never reach him
You curse, you try to scare
But you can never teach him
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow, a nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You know they're gonna get you
You try to break away
But they will never let you

Vad v??rlden f??r??ndras, vad tiden g??r fort
S?? mycket du dr??mde, som aldrig blev gjort
En sommar blir vinter, de varvar varann

Din barndom f??rbleknar i minnenas ljus
Du minns episoder--en gata, ett hus

Every good man needs a helping hand
so I travel alone if I can
Every man has a guiding star
and he knows what he's gonna get
when he's going too far
Living on the dark side once again
It's sad to lose a friend
Looking at things with empty feelings
Still we're going on
For Every good man needs a helping hand
I should have known too
Some of us learn too late, I'm sorry
Every good man needs a hel...
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando

I'm down and I feel depressed
Sitting here just waiting
For next bus travelling
Downtown
It's a crying shame
Isn't it
The beautiful weather
If I could have my way
Well, I would not be working
On a day like this I know what I'd like to be
As free as a bumble bee
Take a sip from
Every flower
Free as a bumble bee
While away each lazy hour
What a good life
Lying laid back
Like an old railroad bum ...

There's a gentleness to everything you do
And it's rubbing off on me I feel it too
I've been waiting but my loneliness I get
When you call me on the phone
And I'm feeling so alone
When you ask me to come over
Baby you know I will
I could never stay on my own
Givin' it all I got to give
I've never done that before
I'm always givin' a little more
When I'm with you
Givin' it all I got to give

You say she's been mad at you
Then you say you'll be patient
Still I see that she makes you blue
Come on, I'd give you consolation
Gonna sing you my lovesong
Gonna bring you some light
Wanna make you feel happy
Every day of your life
Gonna sing you my lovesong
Gonna make it all right
You're all I ever need my darling
Just to be where you wanna be
So much fun we could have then

Que transmiten emociones

Por lo que me hacen sentir
Debo admitir
Que con la m?sica vale vivir
Por eso quiero dar las graci...
When the autumn leaves are falling to the ground
When the air gets cold then I think of us
Of you and I
And it almost makes me cry
So sad and kind of bitter sweet
And the memories filled with tears
And I feel my heart will break
Guess it all was my mistake
Autumn's chilly winds were blowing through the trees
The rain fell softly on your face
Oh I remember every little thing about that day
I re...
Early this morning I drove in the rain
Out to the airport to get on the plane
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
Alice has been there, she said it was fun
Swimming and surfing, enjoying the sun
Hey Honolulu, we're going to happy Hawaii
After all I've had to go through
I'm making no plans
But I, but I believe love gives me a second chance
Guess I've been working a little too hard
Need a ...
No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so gray
So unlike yesterday
Nows the time for us to say
Happy new year, happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy new year, happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If ...
Where is the spring and the summer
That once was yours and mine?
Where did it go?
I just don't know
But still my love for you will live forever
Hasta Maana 'til we meet again
Don't know where, don't know when
Darling, our love was much too strong to die
We'll find a way to face a new tomorrow

I was a fighter always looking for trouble
And my life was so empty, there was nothing left to live for
But then it happened one night as I got into a fight
I could hear someone saying as though he was praying
Treat him well, he is your brother
You might need his help one day
We depend on one another
Love him that's the only way
On the road, on the road that we're going
We all need, we all nee...
I have a very good friend
The kind of girl who likes to follow a trend
She has a personal style
Some people like it, others tend to go wild
You hear her voice everywhere
Taking the chair, she's a leading lady
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going
Head over heels, breaking her way
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
She's a girl with a taste for the world
The world is like a pla...

Some people long for Berlin and Barcelona
They yearn for Paris, Madrid and Rome
And I know some who prefer Arizona
And some prefer home
There's only me who is dying to see
Love, love is a dream
We were like two young strands of driftwood
Caught up in a stream
We were destined for each other
From our very first hello
We came bustin' through that river dam
And made that river flow
We will sail upon the ocean
Til the shoreline meets the sky
Carried on the first trade wind
That favours you and I
We have both of us between us
Known misfortune in our days
Darling this...
So at last you're free
It's the way you wanted it to be
And the price you pay
To become a woman of today
Is it worth the pain to see the children cry?
Does it hurt when they ask for Daddy?
Hey hey Helen
Now you live on your own
Hey hey Helen
Can you make it alone?
Yes you can
So you're free at last
And beginning to forget the past
Does it make you sad
When you think about the life you had?
But...
You feel bad, let me tell you, we all get the blues
Sometimes life is a burden, way down in your shoes
When it's bad, worse, worst
And when you're feeling so bad
And you think you're cursed
And you've got it sad
Well, if there's one thing for the better
That can turn you loose
There's gotta be rock 'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock 'n roll
To fill the hole in your sou...
Honey, honey, how you thrill me, ah, hah, honey, honey
Honey, honey, nearly kill me, ah, hah, honey, honey
I'd heard about you before, I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine
Oh, you make me dizzy
Honey, honey, let me feel it, ah, ha, honey, honey
Honey, honey, don't conceal it, ah ha, honey, honey
The way that you kiss goodnight, the way that you hold m...
"You're so free", that's what everybody's telling me
Yet I feel I'm like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee
Something's wrong, got a feeling that I don't belong
As if I had come from outer space, out of place, like King Kong
I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round

I am just a girl, one among the others
Nothing much to say
Plain and simple girl
Not a special type in any way
Just one look and you will surely see
That the true Miss Nobody is me
It's an evil world
That has only made me a girl
I am just a girl, not the kind of woman
Men would like to meet
Just another girl, no one
Ever looks at in the street
But today, I can't believe it's true
When you smil...

Love me or leave me
Make your choice but believe me
I love you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
I can't conceal it
Don't you see, can't you feel it?
Don't you too?
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, I've been dreamin'
Through my lonely past
Now I just made it
I found you at last
So come on, now let's try it
I love you, can't deny it
'Cause it's true
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, no hard feelings

I have a dream, a song to sing, to help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of the fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels, something good in everything I see
I believe in angels, when I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream, I have a dream
I have a dream, a fantasy, to help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while

I'm hearing images, I'm seeing songs
No poet has ever painted
Voices call out to me, straight to my heart
So strange yet we're so well acquainted
I let the music speak, with no restraints
I let my feelings take over
Carry my soul away into the world
Where beauty meets the darkness of the day
Where my mind is like an open window
Where the high and healing winds blow
From my shallow sleep the so...
I saw it in the mirror, I saw it in my face
That I'm no longer needed, anyone can take my place
I saw it in the mirror when I look into my eyes
'Cause something sure is wrong when this boy cries
This boy cries
I saw it in the mirror, my head is hangin' low
And I ain't too familiar with the feelings that I show
I know you say you love me but I'm lookin' through your lies
It doesn't really bothe...
This park and these houses
Old streets, I have walked
Everything dear, will it be here?
One day when I am returning
My friends will get married
Have children and homes
It sounds so nice, well planned and wise
Never expecting surprises

Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it scares me
But who the hell am I if I don't even try?

I, I've been in love before
I thought I would no more
Manage to hit the ceiling
Still, strange as it seems to be
You brought it back to me
That old feeling
I, I don't know what you do
You made me think that you
Possibly could release me
I think you'll be able to
Make all my dreams come true
And you ease me
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me

I got appointments, work I have to do
Keepin' me so busy all the day through
They're the things that keep me from thinkin' of you
Oh baby, I miss you so, I know I'm never gonna make it
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
And I lose my temper ten times a day
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
It's bad, oh, so bad
Somehow I'd be doin' alright if it wasn't for the nights

I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn
I don't know how but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Jajja Jia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you
Jajja Jia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've mis...
Super Trooper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show
Wishing every show was the last show
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming
Glad to hear you're coming
Suddenly I feel all...
Just a notion that's all
Just a feeling that you're watchin' me
Every move I'm making
Am I reading your mind
Cause it's almost like you're touching me
There is no mistaking
Just a notion
That you'll be walkin' up to me
In a while
And you smile and say hello
Then we'll be dancing through the night
Knowing everything from there on
Must be right
Just a notion
But somehow I know I'm not wrong
If i...
Until that day
My life had been a river
Following the same, pre-destinated course
Suddenly detouring so unexpectedly
With uncompromising forces
My strongholds broke down all too easily
I remember well
How it did embarrass me
I hung on to his every smile
Marveled at his style
Chorus
Just like that
He walked into my house
As smug as a cat
He was handsome and smart
Walked away with my heart
Just ...
Well, I was looking at a movie on the TV last night
Then I had a very funny notion, yeah
I really had to write a song about it
And then I?m gonna sing it with my rock?n roll band
And I bet that people gonna like it, yeah
I know that everybody?s gonna shout it
About a dreadful, mighty killer
A big, black, wild gorilla
We do the
King Kong song
Won?t you sing along
Listen to the music and it coul...
Lay your head on my chest
Ooh
So you hear every beat of my heart
Ooh
Now there's nothing at all
Ooh
That can keep us apart
Ooh
Touch my lips
Ooh
Close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Ooh
Things that you do
Ooh
And you know I'm crazy about you
Ooh
Kisses of fire burnin' burnin'
I'm at the point of no returnin'
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a landslide of emotions
I've had
I'v...
No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye
Knowing me, knowing you
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you
We just have to face it, this time we're through
Breaking up is never easy, I know
But I have to go
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do
Memories, good days, bad days
They...
written by Benny Anderson, Stig Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus
No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye
Knowing me, knowing you ah-haa
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you ah-haa
We just have to face it, this time we're through
This time we're through, this time we're through
This time ...
I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every woman I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
But now it isn't true, now everything is new
And all I've learned has overturned, I beg of you
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck...
Long awaited darkness falls
Casting shadows on the walls
In the twilight hour I am alone
Sitting near the fireplace, dying embers warm my face
In this peaceful solitude
All the outside world subdued
Everything comes back to me again
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room
Half awake and half in dreams
Seeing long forgotten scenes
So the present runs into the past
Now and then become...
Do you remember the first time
And all of your sweet, sweet talk?
Ain't heard it a lot since then love
Now look at that guy
He's making me cry
He leaves everybody
And he only says goodbye
But if I would have to choose
I wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time
And you will see our love will grow
Darling, I know
We gotta have patience
Love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it gets ...
Do you remember the first time
And all of your sweet, sweet talk
Ain't heard it a lot since then, love
Now look at that guy, he's making me cry
He leaves everybody and he only says goodbye
But if I would have to choose I wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time and you will see
Our love will grow, darling I know
We gotta have patience, love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it get...
I've always hated my room, it's so gloomy and dreary
Always the dark, for the windows just face the back yard
So I can't understand how it's happened, how every thing's changing
This old dirty ceiling seems a little whiter
When you walked into the room it all got so much brighter
You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love anywhere
Maybe even when you'...
Sit down and listen 'cause I've got good news for you
It was in the papers today
Some physician had made a discovery
This is what she had to say
Ooh, you know that
She said that every result she had backed her
Claiming that love's a longevity factor
So lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice?
Lovers live a little ...
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn
I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've mi...
Did you see that man in the limousine?
With the pretty doll, he is fifty and the girl's only seventeen
But she doesn't care, and she never will
If he's ninety-five she don't give a damn
Just as long as he pays the bill
Did you see that man with a fat cigar?
He just left his lovers with a belly full of lobster and caviar
He can choose the wine from a vintage year
He will drink champagne in his ...
Well there was me and Bobby and Bobby's brother
Please take me back to that place
Where I've got all my memories
Those were my happiest days
I remember all the games we used to play
I really do
And I went to see them almost every day
I wanted to
Though we quarreled at times
And had a few fights
We were the best of friends
We found a place in the sun
An' have enough fun
Well there was me and Bo...
Sometimes when I'm mad
There's a part of me
That seems to be a little sad
Sometimes when I scream
There's a voice in me that says
"You shouldn't be so mean"
Oh no oh no
Part of me is acting
While the other stands beside
Yes I am to myself
What Jekyll must have been to Hyde
We're like sun and rainy weather
Sometimes we're a hit together
Me and I
Gloomy moods and inspiration
We're a funny combin...

I have tried in vain never had success
So it seems my life is nothing but a mess
I have lost my only friend
Now it seems I have to start again
Merry-go-round
Where am I bound
With my love and feelings?
Merry-go-round
Who wants to kiss me
And hug me and miss me?
Yes, who wants to do it?
I wish that I knew it
Merry-go-round
Wish I had found
Somebody to care for
Where am I bound?
Life is so lonel...
Well, you wake up in the morning
Hear the ding-dong ring
You go marching to the table
See the same old thing
See the fork on the table
Nothing in your pan
If you sing a thing about it
You're in trouble with the man
Let the midnight special shine a light on me
Let the midnight special shine it's ever loving light on me
If you ever go to houston
Well, you better act right
And you better not gamb...
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaa
A...
I work all night, I work all day
To pay the bills I have to pay, ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be

They say a restless body
Can hide a peaceful soul
A voyager and a settler
They both have a distant goal
If I explore the heavens
Or if I search inside
Well, it really doesn't matter
As long as I can tell myself, I've always tried
Like a roller in the ocean
Life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that's always blowing
Life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning
Life is dawning
Move on
Ho...
Ahh, ahh
I've seen it on your face
Tells me more than any worn out old phase
So now we'll go separate ways
Never again we two
Never again, nothin' I can do
Like an image passin' by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
See it all so clearly
Answer me sincerely
Answer me sincerely
Was it a dream, a lie?
Like reflections of your mind, my love,...
Tried to sneak out without saying, with my loudest record playing
Ooh, my mama said, "Look at this, you haven't done your bed"
My mama said, "That's a thing that you should do instead"
Yeah, I did what she had told me, dying for my friend to hold me
Ooh, my mama said, "Try and get one thing into your head"
My mama said, "Pa and me, we give you room and bread"
How I wanna live my life, wanna li...
Every day in the morning on her way to the office
You can see her as she catches a train
Just a face among a million faces
Just another woman with no name
Not the girl you'd remember, but she's still something special
If you knew her, I am sure you'd agree
'Cause I know she's got a little secret
Friday evening, she turns out to be
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floo...
I was at a party and this feller said to me
"Something bad is happening, I'm sure you do agree
People care for nothing, no respect for human rights
Evil times are coming, we are in for darker nights"
I said, "Who are you to talk about impending doom"
He got kinda wary as he looked around the room
He said, "I'm a minister, a big shot in the state"
I said, "I just can't believe it, boy I think i...
On top of old smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
By courting so slow
For courting's a pleasure
And parting is grief
And a false-hearted lover
Is worse than a thief
On top of old smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
By courting so slow
No smiles, not a single word at the breakfast table
Though I would have liked to begin
So much that I wanna say, but I feel unable
You leave and slam the door
Like you've done many times before
And I cry and I feel so helpless
One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow we'll help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take t...
They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so I dealt you the blow
One of us had to go
Now it's different, I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying in her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only waiting f...
The summer air was soft and warm, the feeling right
The Paris night did it's best to please us
And strolling down the Elysee
We had a drink in each cafe and you
You talked of politics, philosophy
And I smiled like Mona Lisa
We had our chance
It was a fine and true romance
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer, memories...
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand
Man has always wanted
A woman by his side to keep him company
Women always knew that
It takes a man to get matrimonial harmony
Everybody knows that
A man who's feeling down wants some female sympathy
Gotta have love to carry on living
Gotta have lo...
Gonna jump down
Spin around

Put on your white Sombrero saddle your horse my dear
And ride off into the sunset
You better go for there is no
Place for you here
Like an old fashioned hero you stand before me
Ohh, you think our life is a movie
My world is real I live and feel
And I can do without you
Put on your white Sombrero your red bandana too
Think of this day as a showdown
Goodbye my friend this is the end
For me and ...
A bailar, a girar

Miren bien, all?? va
Como una reina ya
Viernes noche y ad??nde ir
todo listo para salir
luces por todas partes
busquen un lugar
m??sica y a bailar
Uno y todos a disfrutar
hay un ritmo sensacional
con un rock muy violento

Rikky Rock'n Roller now that you're the headline
Rikky Rock'n Roller don't it make you feel fine
Is it true to hear the fans scream
To stand in the lights is just like a dream
What a dream
To be what you are, a rock and roll star
To make such a lot of money
Would be funny
Oh I wish I could be like you Rikky Rock'n Roller
Today a new jet plane
Tonight it's a new hotel
You live in your own world...
I was sitting by the phone, I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night, seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at...
Sitting in the darkest corner
In the tender light I saw her face
She was looking so sad and lonely
Someone help me, someone save me
I could see the look she gave me, oh
Oh yeah, and there was one thing only
That I knew I could do
Let's go girl
It's a beautiful place this world
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n'roll band
Let's go now
Let me show you that I know how
Come on baby let's dance...
Sitting in the darkest corner
In the candle light I saw her face
She was looking so sad and lonely
Someone help me, someone save me

That I knew I could do
Let's go girl
It's a beautiful place this world

Rock me, give me that kick now
Rock me, show me that trick now
Roll me, you can do magic
Baby, and I can't get enough of it
Rock me, give me that feeling
Roll me, rocking and reeling
Baby, so don't stop doing it
Don't stop doing it, now
Don't stop the rocking
Don't stop the rocking
I said don't stop the rocking
Wanna be, wanna be
In my baby's arms
Gonna be gonna be
Nice and gentle if you want ...

The poster on the wall of a dear friend
I wish there was a way that I could show you how your songs set me free
The hero of them all
You're a legend
I guess I'll never get a chance to know you
Still you're close as can be
Make the bandstand to a dreamland, Rubber Ball Man
Clapping your hands, let your feet dance, Rubber Ball Man
When you're jumping up and down, nobody's standing still
Some of ...
Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me S.O.S.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me S.O.S.
When you're gone, how can I even try to go on
When you're gone though I try how c...
I'd give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
How I wish this road would take me home where I belong
'Cause I have found no other place where I would stay
I'm tired and all my dreams have failed along the way
I'd give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
Though I wonder what my folks would think about me now
I guess I've changed, like people do when things go wrong
But in the end, somehow ...
Ella se va tan feliz a la escuela ahora
diciendo adios con ausente sonreir
alli se va y en mi siento una tristeza
algo que me hace percebir...
Aun me pertenece, pero menos
en ese mundo de su candidez
se me esta escapando
feliz de compartir aun su risa
y toda su ni?ez
Se me esta escapando al crecer
Como lograr que se detengan
hoy los minutos?
Se me esta escapando al crecer
Su gran fantasia cuid...
Look at her face, it's a wonderful face
And it means something special to me
Look at the way that she smiles when she sees me
How lucky can one fellow be
She's just my kind of girl, she makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she would be mine
She's just my kind of girl, without her I'm blue
And if she ever leaves me what could I do, what could I do
And when we go for a walk in the park...
He stands towering over me beside my bed losing his head
Tells me I must take him seriously
Droning on the usual way he's such a clever guy
And I wonder should I laugh or cry
He's dressed in the striped pajamas that I bought trousers too short
Gives me of small philosophy
Carries on the way he does and me I get so tired
And I wonder should I laugh or cry
High and mighty his banner flies a fool...
See me sitting in the palmtree
Looking down at people passing by
Sitting here no-one can harm me
They just stare at me and wonder why
No need to bother, I'm gonna stay up here
Whatever happens, I won't let no-one near
Until you tell me, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind, won't you please
You really love me, Jeanie Jeanie you're so fine, yes you are now
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
I'll be...
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every...
You think you're gonna make me softer with your fancy car
But I can tell you all your tricks ain't gonna get you far
They say, 'That money's got a magic touch'
But not to me, it doesn't mean that much
You won't have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right
So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
Tracy, Daisy, they may be crazy
But I'll never be your girl
So long, s...
Do I hear what I think I'm hearin'?
Do I see the signs, I think I see?
Or is this just fantasy
Is it true that the beast is wakin'?
Stirrin' in his restless sleep tonight in the pale moonlight
In the grip of this cold December
You and I have reason to remember
Soldiers write the songs that soldiers sing
The songs that you and I don't sing
They blow their horns and march along
They drum their d...
Summer night city
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in the park
Summer night city
In the sun I feel like sleeping
I can't take it for too long
My impatience slowly creeping
Up my spine and growing strong
I know what's waiting there for me
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free, aa-ahhh
When the night comes with...
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishin' every show was the last show
Wishin' every show was the last show
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming
Glad to hear you're coming
Suddenly I feel all...
Suzy was nine and I was ten
Right at the time when boys like to think they're men
She used to follow us at school
We really thought that she was a little fool
And one day we said to her
We don't want to hurt you girl
But you'd better
Look for a friend of your own, Suzy-hang-around
Better come back when you're grown, Suzy-hang-around
Nobody wants you around here and that's for sure
So get off o...

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Take a chance on me
That's al...
I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent a wonderful thing
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud
So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty?
What would ...
Are you sure, you wanna hear more?
What if I ain't worth the while
Not the style you'd be lookin' for
If I'm sweet tonight, things look different in the morning light
I'm jealous and I'm proud, if you hurt my feelings I'll cry out loud
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me
Are you sure, you wanna hear more?
Would I be the one you seek
Mild and meek like the girl next door, don'...
I must have left my house at eight because I always do
My train, I'm certain, left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morning paper going into town
And having gotten through The Editorial, no doubt I must have frowned
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch at half past tw...
Ahh
I believe your new girl turned you down
And they say, "She's pushin' you around"
How does it feel? I guess it hurts your pride
Tell me my friend how many nights you cried?
Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly he's clumsy like a clown
Aaa
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown
Was it hard to step down from your throne
And to know tonight you're all alone?...
I've seen you twice in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me for every time
I'm getting more open hearted
I was an impossible case
No one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know what's the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What's the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please 'cau...
They came from the hills
And they came from the valleys and the plains
They struggled in the cold
In the heat and the snow and in the rain
Came to hear him play
Play their minds away
We're all following a strange melody
We're all summoned by a tune
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon for him
And we dance beneath the mo...
I hear the door-bell ring and suddenly the panic takes me
The sound so ominously tearing through the silence
I cannot move, I'm standing numb and frozen
Among the things I love so dearly
The books, the paintings and the furniture, help me
The signal's sounding once again and someone tries the doorknob
None of my friends would be so stupidly impatient
And they don't dare to come here anymore no...
You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do
Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow
We can face it together
The way old friends do
You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
A...
I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny
I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking ...
The city is a jungle, you better take care
Never walk alone after midnight
If you don't believe it you better beware of me
I am behind you, I always find you, I am the tiger
People who fear me never go near me, I am the tiger
The city is a nightmare, a horrible dream
Some of us will dream it forever
Look around the corner and try not to scream, it's me
I am behind you, I always find you, I am ...
Come to my loveland, wander along
Beautiful gardens full of flowers and songs
Come to the sunshine, beaches and sand
Here's the two bluebirds, won't you come to my land?
The grass is mellow and the sky is blue
My paradise is waiting here for you
Ooh, it's a tropical loveland
Ooh, I wanna share it with you
Life can be funny, happy and sunny
Ooh, in my tropical loveland and
Come to my loveland, ...
He had what you might call a simple occupation
He cleaned the platforms of the local railway station
With no romance in his life
Sometimes he wished he had a wife
He read the matrimonial advertising pages
The cries for help from different people different ages
But they had nothing to say at least not until the day
When something special he read, this is what it said
If you dream of the girl fo...
Don't know how to take it, don't know where to go
My resistance's running low
And everyday the hold is getting tighter and it troubles me so
You know that I'm nobody's fool
I'm nobody's fool and yet it's clear to me
I don't have a strategy
It's just like taking candy from a baby
And I think I must be
Under attack, I'm being taken
About to crack, defenses breaking
Won't somebody see and save a ...
People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air
Giving out a spark
Across the room your eyes are glowing in the dark
And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene

People everywhere
A sense of expectation hangin' in the air
Givin' out a spark
Across the room your eyes are glowin' in the dark
And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene

You know what I mean
Voulez-vous

Nothing promised, no regrets

You move like a flame of fire
Your eyes like a flash of lightning
The answer to all desire
And I'm gonna tame you, wild thing
You'd better watch out
I said you'd better watch out, watch out
Anywhere you go I'll find you watch out
I'll be staying close behind you
And I'm tired of waiting
Yes, it's driving me crazy
And my patience is fading
Oh, you'd better watch out
I said, "You'd better watch ...

Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way

Du und ich hatten uns're Zeit
Ist es nun am Ende doch soweit?
Kann es wirklich m?glich sein?
Unser Himmel war wolkenlos
War das alles eine T?uschung b
Und du l??t mich nun allein
Und nun st?rzt der Himmel ein
Wer im Wartesaal der Liebe steht
Wei?, da? es um alles geht
Und man fragt sich nur
Wie wird das noch enden
Wer im wartesaal der Liebe steht

Alles wird sich...
Went to buy me a paper
At the local newsstand
And then I heard them
Laugh and say
"Look, they're gonna go flying
Way up to the moon now
Hey, what's it good for anyway?"
So I said, "Fellas
Like to ask you a thing if I may"
"What about Livingstone?
What about all those men
Who have sacrificed
Their lives to lead the way?"
"Tell me, wasn't it worth the while
Traveling up the Nile?
Putting themsel...
Here's to us, one more toast and then we'll pay the bill
Deep inside both of us can feel the autumn chill
Birds of passage, you and me, we fly instinctively
When the summer's over and the dark clouds hide the sun
Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done
In our lives we have walked some strange and lonely treks
Slightly worn but dignified and not too old for sex
We're still strivi...
Everybody screamed when I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed, when I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush, he looked like a fool
Nearly petrified 'cos he was taken by surprise
When I kissed the teacher
Couldn't quite believe his eyes, when I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood stil...
When you were lonely, you needed a man
Someone to lean on, well I understand
It's only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Nights can be empty and nights can be cold
So you were looking for someone to hold
That's only natural
But why did it have to be me?
I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn't help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little lov...
Now there's a shadow passing over our faces
Doubt forever in our hearts
And in a while we'll have to pick up the traces
We won't find the missing parts
Buy me a ticket, I'll go to the Bahamas
I need a rest from our petty little dramas
Yes I really do
Aha um hum
Look what you've done
I'm missing all the fun
Baby you owe me one
Aha un hum
It's my turn to run
A chance to see the sun
Baby you owe ...

Making somebody happy
Is a question of give and take
You can learn how to show it
So come on give yourself a break
Every smile and every little touch
Don't you know that they mean so much
Sweet, sweet kisses so tender
Always will return to sender
Like a bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Dum-be-dum-dum be-dum-be-dum-dum
Oh bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Love is a tune you hum-de-hum-hum
By giving away, I thin...
So at last you're free
It's the way you wanted it to be
And the price you pay
To become a woman of today
Is it worth the pain to see the children cry?
Does it hurt when they ask for Daddy?
Hey hey Helen
Now you live on your own
Hey hey Helen
Can you make it alone?
Yes you can
So you're free at last
And beginning to forget the past
Does it make you sad
When you think about the life you had?
But...
Love me or leave me
Make your choice but believe me
I love you
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
I can't conceal it
Don't you see, can't you feel it?
Don't you too?
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, I've been dreamin'
Through my lonely past
Now I just made it
I found you at last
So come on, now let's try it
I love you, can't deny it
'Cause it's true
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
Oh, no hard feelings
...
I, I've been in love before
I thought I would no more
Manage to hit the ceiling
Still, strange as it seems to be
You brought it back to me
That old feeling
I, I don't know what you do
You made me think that you
Possibly could release me
I think you'll be able to
Make all my dreams come true
And you ease me
You thrill me, you delight me
You please me, you excite me
You're somethin' I'd been ple...
Did you see that man in the limousine?
With the pretty doll, he is fifty and the girl's only seventeen
But she doesn't care, and she never will
If he's ninety-five she don't give a damn
Just as long as he pays the bill
Did you see that man with a fat cigar?
He just left his lovers with a belly full of lobster and caviar
He can choose the wine from a vintage year
He will drink champagne in his ...
Rock me, give me that kick now
Rock me, show me that trick now
Roll me, you can do magic
Baby, and I can't get enough of it
Rock me, give me that feeling
Roll me, rocking and reeling
Baby, so don't stop doing it
Don't stop doing it, now
Don't stop the rocking
Don't stop the rocking
I said don't stop the rocking
Wanna be, wanna be
In my baby's arms
Gonna be gonna be
Nice and gentle if you want ...
You think you're gonna make me softer with your fancy car
But I can tell you all your tricks ain't gonna get you far
They say, 'That money's got a magic touch'
But not to me, it doesn't mean that much
You won't have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right
So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money

But I'll never be your girl

Come to my loveland, wander along
Beautiful gardens full of flowers and songs
Come to the sunshine, beaches and sand
Here's the two bluebirds, won't you come to my land?
The grass is mellow and the sky is blue

Ooh, it's a tropical loveland
Ooh, I wanna share it with you
Life can be funny, happy and sunny
Ooh, in my tropical loveland and

You can dance, you can jive
Having the time of your life
Ooh see that girl, watch that scene
Dig in the dancing queen
Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for a place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood f...
You're so hot, teasin' me
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
It's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does yo...
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando
We were young and full of life and none o...
I have a dream, a song to sing, to help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of the fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels, something good in everything I see
I believe in angels, when I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream, I have a dream
I have a dream, a fantasy, to help me through reality
And my destination makes it worth the while
Pus...
No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye
Knowing me, knowing you
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you
We just have to face it, this time we're through
Breaking up is never easy, I know
But I have to go
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do
Memories, good days, bad days
They...
I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every woman I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
But now it isn't true, now everything is new
And all I've learned has overturned, I beg of you
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck...
I've been cheated by you since I don't know when
So I made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will I ever learn
I don't know how, but I suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and I can hear a bell ring
One more look and I forget everything
Mamma mia, here I go again
My my, how can I resist you
Mamma mia, does it show again
My my, just how much I've mi...
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaa

They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so I dealt you the blow
One of us had to go
Now it's different, I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying in her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only waiting f...
Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me S.O.S.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me S.O.S.
When you're gone, how can I even try to go on
When you're gone though I try how c...
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishin' every show was the last show
Wishin' every show was the last show
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming
Glad to hear you're coming
Suddenly I feel all...
If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try
Take a chance on me
That's al...
I've seen you twice in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me for every time
I'm getting more open hearted
I was an impossible case
No one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know what's the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What's the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please 'cau...
I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny
I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking ...
People everywhere
A sense of expectation hangin' in the air
Givin' out a spark
Across the room your eyes are glowin' in the dark
And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene

You know what I mean

Take it now or leave it
Now is all we get
Nothing promised, no regrets
Voulez-vous

I can hear how you work, practising hard
Playin' night and day, woa-oh
And it sounds better now
Yes, you improve every time you play, woa-oh
But it's bad
You're so sad
And you're only smilin'
When you play your violin
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
To be so near and not just here
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
I think then maybe, you'd see me, baby
You'd be mine
And we'd be together all ...
Ahh, ahh
I've seen it on your face
Tells me more than any worn out old phase
So now we'll go separate ways
Never again we two
Never again, nothin' I can do
Like an image passin' by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
See it all so clearly
Answer me sincerely
Answer me sincerely
Was it a dream, a lie?
Like reflections of your mind, my love,...
Are you sure, you wanna hear more?
What if I ain't worth the while
Not the style you'd be lookin' for
If I'm sweet tonight, things look different in the morning light
I'm jealous and I'm proud, if you hurt my feelings I'll cry out loud
I'm Carrie not the kind of girl you'd marry
That's me
Are you sure, you wanna hear more?
Would I be the one you seek
Mild and meek like the girl next door, don'...
The city is a jungle, you better take care
Never walk alone after midnight
If you don't believe it you better beware of me
I am behind you, I always find you, I am the tiger
People who fear me never go near me, I am the tiger
The city is a nightmare, a horrible dream
Some of us will dream it forever
Look around the corner and try not to scream, it's me
I am behind you, I always find you, I am ...
Everybody screamed when I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed, when I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush, he looked like a fool

Day is dawning and I must go
You're asleep but still I'm sure, you'll know
Why it had to end this way
You and I had a groovy time
But I told you somewhere down the line
You would have to find me gone
I just have to move along
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained...
Changing, moving, in a circle
I can see your face in all of my dreams
Smiling, laughing, from the shadows
When I hear your voice, I know what it means
I know it doesn't matter just how hard I try
You're all the reason for my life
Disillusion, disillusions all you left for me
How can I forget you
When my world is breakin' down
You're all I had, you're all I want
Disillusion, disillusions now, t...
I was a fighter always looking for trouble
And my life was so empty, there was nothing left to live for
But then it happened one night as I got into a fight
I could hear someone saying as though he was praying
Treat him well, he is your brother
You might need his help one day
We depend on one another
Love him that's the only way
On the road, on the road that we're going
We all need, we all nee...
I am just a girl, one among the others
Nothing much to say
Plain and simple girl
Not a special type in any way
Just one look and you will surely see
That the true Miss Nobody is me
It's an evil world
That has only made me a girl
I am just a girl, not the kind of woman
Men would like to meet
Just another girl, no one
Ever looks at in the street
But today, I can't believe it's true
When you smil...
I saw it in the mirror, I saw it in my face
That I'm no longer needed, anyone can take my place
I saw it in the mirror when I look into my eyes
'Cause something sure is wrong when this boy cries
This boy cries
I saw it in the mirror, my head is hangin' low
And I ain't too familiar with the feelings that I show
I know you say you love me but I'm lookin' through your lies
It doesn't really bothe...
Do you remember the first time
And all of your sweet, sweet talk
Ain't heard it a lot since then, love
Now look at that guy, he's making me cry
He leaves everybody and he only says goodbye
But if I would have to choose I wouldn't let you go
Just give it some more time and you will see
Our love will grow, darling I know
We gotta have patience, love isn't just a sensation
Some of the time it get...
Well there was me and Bobby and Bobby's brother
Please take me back to that place
Where I've got all my memories
Those were my happiest days
I remember all the games we used to play
I really do
And I went to see them almost every day
I wanted to
Though we quarreled at times
And had a few fights
We were the best of friends
We found a place in the sun
An' have enough fun
Well there was me and Bo...
Every day in the morning on her way to the office
You can see her as she catches a train
Just a face among a million faces
Just another woman with no name
Not the girl you'd remember, but she's still something special
If you knew her, I am sure you'd agree
'Cause I know she's got a little secret
Friday evening, she turns out to be
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floo...
People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand
Man has always wanted
A woman by his side to keep him company
Women always knew that
It takes a man to get matrimonial harmony
Everybody knows that
A man who's feeling down wants some female sympathy
Gotta have love to carry on living
Gotta have lo...
I was sitting by the phone, I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night, seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at...
Sitting in the darkest corner
In the tender light I saw saw her face
She was looking so sad and lonely
Someone help me, someone save me
I could see the look she gave me, oh
Oh yeah, and there was one thing only
That I knew I could do
Let's go girl
It's a beautiful place this world
Come on baby let's dance
To the rock'n'roll band
Let's go now
Let me show you that I know how
Come on baby let's d...
Look at her face, it's a wonderful face
And it means something special to me
Look at the way that she smiles when she sees me
How lucky can one fellow be
She's just my kind of girl, she makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she would be mine
She's just my kind of girl, without her I'm blue
And if she ever leaves me what could I do, what could I do
And when we go for a walk in the park...

Take it easy with me please
Touch me gently like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, andante
Just let the feeling grow
Make your fingers soft and light
Let your body be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul, you know how
Andante, andante
Go slowly with me now

I am your music and I am your song
I'm your song
I am your music and I am your song

No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so gray
So unlike yesterday
Nows the time for us to say
Happy new year, happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy new year, happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If ...
Sometimes when I'm mad
There's a part of me
That seems to be a little sad
Sometimes when I scream
There's a voice in me that says
"You shouldn't be so mean"
Oh no oh no
Part of me is acting
While the other stands beside
Yes I am to myself
What Jekyll must have been to Hyde
We're like sun and rainy weather
Sometimes we're a hit together
Me and I
Gloomy moods and inspiration
We're a funny combin...
I was at a party and this feller said to me
"Something bad is happening, I'm sure you do agree
People care for nothing, no respect for human rights
Evil times are coming, we are in for darker nights"
I said, "Who are you to talk about impending doom"
He got kinda wary as he looked around the room
He said, "I'm a minister, a big shot in the state"
I said, "I just can't believe it, boy I think i...
The summer air was soft and warm, the feeling right
The Paris night did it's best to please us
And strolling down the Elysee
We had a drink in each cafe and you
You talked of politics, philosophy
And I smiled like Mona Lisa
We had our chance
It was a fine and true romance
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer, memories...
They came from the hills
And they came from the valleys and the plains
They struggled in the cold
In the heat and the snow and in the rain
Came to hear him play
Play their minds away
We're all following a strange melody
We're all summoned by a tune
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon for him
And we dance beneath the mo...
You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do
And after fights and words of violence
We make up with each other
The way old friends do
Times of joy and times of sorrow
We will always see it through
Oh I don't care what comes tomorrow
We can face it together
The way old friends do
You and I can share the silence
Finding comfort together
The way old friends do

The Album |
They came flying from far away, now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell
They've seen places beyond my land and they've found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
Over mountains and f...
You feel bad, let me tell you, we all get the blues
Sometimes life is a burden, way down in your shoes
When it's bad, worse, worst
And when you're feeling so bad
And you think you're cursed
And you've got it sad
Well, if there's one thing for the better
That can turn you loose
There's gotta be rock 'n roll
To fill the hole in your soul
There's gotta be rock 'n roll
To fill the hole in your sou...
This park and these houses, old streets I have walked
Everything dear, will it be here, one day when I am returning?
My friends will get married, have children and homes
It sounds so nice, well planned and wise, never expecting surprises
I wonder, it's frightening leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it scares me but who the Hell am I if I don't even try?
I'm not a coward oh no, I'l...
You're so free that's what everybody's telling me
Yet I feel I'm like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee
Something's wrong, got a feeling that I don't belong
As if I have come from outer space, out of place, like King Kong
I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round
I'm ...
They say a restless body
Can hide a peaceful soul
A voyager and a settler
They both have a distant goal
If I explore the heavens
Or if I search inside
Well, it really doesn't matter
As long as I can tell myself, I've always tried
Like a roller in the ocean
Life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that's always blowing
Life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning
Life is dawning
Move on
Ho...
No smiles, not a single word at the breakfast table
Though I would have liked to begin
So much that I wanna say, but I feel unable
You leave and slam the door
Like you've done many times before
And I cry and I feel so helpless
One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow we'll help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take t...
I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent a wonderful thing
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud
So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty?
What would ...

I have a very good friend
The kind of girl who likes to follow a trend
She has a personal style
Some people like it, others tend to go wild
You hear her voice everywhere
Taking the chair, she's a leading lady
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going
Head over heels, breaking her way
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
She's a girl with a taste for the world
The world is like a pla...
I'm hearing images, I'm seeing songs
No poet has ever painted
Voices call out to me, straight to my heart
So strange yet we're so well acquainted
I let the music speak, with no restraints
I let my feelings take over
Carry my soul away into the world
Where beauty meets the darkness of the day
Where my mind is like an open window
Where the high and healing winds blow
From my shallow sleep the so...
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl
Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every...
Do I hear what I think I'm hearin'?
Do I see the signs, I think I see?
Or is this just fantasy
Is it true that the beast is wakin'?
Stirrin' in his restless sleep tonight in the pale moonlight
In the grip of this cold December
You and I have reason to remember
Soldiers write the songs that soldiers sing
The songs that you and I don't sing
They blow their horns and march along
They drum their d...
I hear the door-bell ring and suddenly the panic takes me
The sound so ominously tearing through the silence
I cannot move, I'm standing numb and frozen
Among the things I love so dearly
The books, the paintings and the furniture, help me
The signal's sounding once again and someone tries the doorknob
None of my friends would be so stupidly impatient
And they don't dare to come here anymore no...
He had what you might call a simple occupation
He cleaned the platforms of the local railway station
With no romance in his life
Sometimes he wished he had a wife
He read the matrimonial advertising pages
The cries for help from different people different ages
But they had nothing to say at least not until the day
When something special he read, this is what it said
If you dream of the girl fo...
Here's to us, one more toast and then we'll pay the bill
Deep inside both of us can feel the autumn chill
Birds of passage, you and me, we fly instinctively
When the summer's over and the dark clouds hide the sun
Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done
In our lives we have walked some strange and lonely treks
Slightly worn but dignified and not too old for sex
We're still strivi...

Ah-ha-ha, ah-aah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aah
Ah-ha-ha
Keep thinking 'bout his angel eyes
I keep thinking, a-aah
Last night I was taking a walk along the river
And I saw him together with a young girl
And the look that he gave her made me shiver
'Cause he always used to look at me that way
Then I thought maybe I should walk right up to her
And say, "Ah-ha-ha, it's a game he likes to play"
Look into his an...
I'll never know why I had to go
Why I had to put up such a lousy, rotten show
Boy, I was smooth, packin' all my stuff
Sayin' I don't need you anymore, I've had enough
And now, look at me standing here again 'cause I found out that
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma
My life is here
Gotta have you near
As good as new, my love for you
And keepin' it that way is my intention...
Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong?
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I h...
I got appointments, work I have to do
Keepin' me so busy all the day through
They're the things that keep me from thinkin' of you
Oh baby, I miss you so, I know I'm never gonna make it
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
And I lose my temper ten times a day
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
It's bad, oh, so bad
Somehow I'd be doin' alright if it wasn't for the nights
I...
Lay your head on my chest
Ooh
So you hear every beat of my heart
Ooh
Now there's nothing at all
Ooh
That can keep us apart
Ooh
Touch my lips
Ooh
Close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Ooh
Things that you do
Ooh
And you know I'm crazy about you
Ooh
Kisses of fire burnin' burnin'
I'm at the point of no returnin'
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a landslide of emotions
I've had
I'v...
Sit down and listen 'cause I've got good news for you
It was in the papers today
Some physician had made a discovery
This is what she had to say
Ooh, you know that
She said that every result she had backed her
Claiming that love's a longevity factor
So lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain't that nice?
Lovers live a little ...
Summer night city
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in the park
Summer night city
In the sun I feel like sleeping
I can't take it for too long
My impatience slowly creeping
Up my spine and growing strong
I know what's waiting there for me
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free, aa-ahhh
When the night comes with...
Ahh
I believe your new girl turned you down
And they say, "She's pushin' you around"
How does it feel? I guess it hurts your pride
Tell me my friend how many nights you cried?
Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly he's clumsy like a clown
Aaa
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown
Was it hard to step down from your throne
And to know tonight you're all alone?...

Oh, my love it makes me sad
Why did things turn out so bad?
Was it just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?
Baby, give me one more
Dance while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow
Dance and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow
Let's make it a memory, a night of our own
A thing to remember when we're all alone
So dance, it's our way to say goodbye
Yes, al...
You say she's been mad at you
Then you say you'll be patient
Still I see that she makes you blue
Come on, I'd give you consolation
Gonna sing you my lovesong
Gonna bring you some light
Wanna make you feel happy
Every day of your life
Gonna sing you my lovesong
Gonna make it all right
You're all I ever need my darling
Just to be where you wanna be
So much fun we could have then
To be yours for ...
Honey, honey, how you thrill me, ah, hah, honey, honey
Honey, honey, nearly kill me, ah, hah, honey, honey
I'd heard about you before, I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine
Oh, you make me dizzy
Honey, honey, let me feel it, ah, ha, honey, honey
Honey, honey, don't conceal it, ah ha, honey, honey
The way that you kiss goodnight, the way that you hold m...
Well, I was looking at a movie on the TV last night
Then I had a very funny notion, yeah
I really had to write a song about it
And then I?m gonna sing it with my rock?n roll band
And I bet that people gonna like it, yeah
I know that everybody?s gonna shout it
About a dreadful, mighty killer
A big, black, wild gorilla
We do the
King Kong song
Won?t you sing along
Listen to the music and it coul...
Tried to sneak out without saying, with my loudest record playing
Ooh, my mama said, "Look at this, you haven't done your bed"
My mama said, "That's a thing that you should do instead"
Yeah, I did what she had told me, dying for my friend to hold me
Ooh, my mama said, "Try and get one thing into your head"
My mama said, "Pa and me, we give you room and bread"
How I wanna live my life, wanna li...
See me sitting in the palmtree
Looking down at people passing by
Sitting here no-one can harm me
They just stare at me and wonder why
No need to bother, I'm gonna stay up here
Whatever happens, I won't let no-one near
Until you tell me, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind, won't you please
You really love me, Jeanie Jeanie you're so fine, yes you are now
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
I'll be...
Suzy was nine and I was ten
Right at the time when boys like to think they're men
She used to follow us from school
We really thought that she was a little fool
And one day we said to her
We don't want to hurt you girl
But you'd better
Look for a friend of your own, Suzy-hang-around
Better come back when you're grown, Suzy-hang-around
Nobody wants you around here and that's for sure
So get off...
You move like a flame of fire
Your eyes like a flash of lightning
The answer to all desire
And I'm gonna tame you, wild thing
You'd better watch out
I said you'd better watch out, watch out
Anywhere you go I'll find you watch out
I'll be staying close behind you
And I'm tired of waiting
Yes, it's driving me crazy
And my patience is fading
Oh, you'd better watch out
I said, "You'd better watch ...
My my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself
Waterloo
I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo
Promise to love you forever more
Waterloo
Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo
Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo
Finally facing my Waterloo
My my, I tried to hold you back but y...
Went to buy me a paper
At the local newsstand
And then I heard them
Laugh and say
"Look, they're gonna go flying
Way up to the moon now
Hey, what's it good for anyway?"
So I said, "Fellas
Like to ask you a thing if I may"
"What about Livingstone?
What about all those men
Who have sacrificed
Their lives to lead the way?"
"Tell me, wasn't it worth the while
Traveling up the Nile?
Putting themsel...
