Per Gessle

Babe come in from the cold and put that coat to rest.
Step inside take a deep breath and do what you do best.
Yes kick off them shoes and leave those city streets.
I do believe love came our way. and fate did arrange for us to meet.

***
I love when you do that hocus pocus to me.
The way that you touch you've got the power to heal.
You give me that look it's almost unreal. it's almost unreal.
Hey we can't stop the rain let's find a place by the fire.
Sometimes I feel stange as it seems.
you've been in my dreams all my life.

I love when you do that hocus pocus to me.
The way that you touch you've got the power to heal.
You give me that look it's almost unreal. it's almost unreal.
It's a crazy world out there. It'a a crazy........
Let's hope our prayers are in good hands pocus tonight.

Oh I love when you do that hocus pocus to me.
The way that you touch you've got the power to heal.
You give me that look it's almost unreal. it's almost unreal.

I love when you do that hocus pocus to me.
The way that you touch you've got the power to heal.
You give me that look it's almost unreal. it's almost unreal.

Do the hocus pocus to me. Do the hocus pocus ..

Que hora es?,
bienvenida la manana.
Tan sola yo y el cielo tan azul.
En mi cafe, en mi radio y en mi tele
siempre estas tu.
Para empezar me levanto de la cama
y voy vistiendome asi corno asi.
Gracias a Dios tu no puedes verme
llorando por ti.
Un dia sin ti
es una eternidad, es un adios
que duele por dos.
Solo esperar, la soledad.
Un dia sin ti.
Busco tu voz y el telefono me lieva
al puerto gris de tu contestador.
Ayudame, yo no se como pasarme
un dia sin ti.
Un dia sin ti...
Un dia sin ti...
No tengo amigos
ni otra cosa que hacer
solo pienso fuertemente en ti ... Oh... m otra cosa que hacer
me mago a ser tu amor
a cambio de un dia sin ti.
Un dia sin ti...
Un dia sin ti, sin ti
es una eternidad, es un adios
Solo esperar, la soledad..
Es una pena
un dia sin ti.

Oye, a veces me siento mal
Es una cuestion personal.
Tengo un corazon para nadie,
Nadie se lo quiere quedar.
Pero si lo parto contigo
Yo vivo da tu mitad
Tu mitad.
Voy directamente a ti,
Directamente a ti.
Para encontrarte
Yo puedo [legar hasta al fin
Voy directamente a ti,
Directamente a ti.
Aunque no quieras
Voy a caer sobre ti.

La ciudad parece tan triste,
Todo est en silencio total.
Deseo que algo pase eri mi vida
Pero nada pasa de verdad.
Voy a buscar la salida,
Me marcho da la ciudad.
Hacia ti.

Voy directamente a ti,
Directamente a ti.
Para encontrarte
Yo puedo [legar hasta al fin
Voy directamente a ti,
Directamente a ti.
Aunque no quieras
Voy a caer sobre ti.

Un paseo por al sol
Oir tu voz
Y mi vide marcha bien
Mucho mejor.

Directamente a ti
Voy directamente a ti,
Directamente a ti
Aunque no quieras, ah, ah.
Voy directamente a ti...

When I go to heaven
Harley Harley heaven
I want to meet a King
Like the Panhead 48
I want to meet the Fat One
We can talk for hours
When my time has come, Babe
I won't be running late.

* Flying high
Riders in the sky
Na na na na.
Flying high
Riders in the sky
Na na na na.

When I go to heaven
Red-skin heaven
I want to meet the Chiefs
Yea, I want to meet all Scouts
I won't miss my friends cos I know where they'll be
We're all part of the Indian Family

* Repeat

It's alright, Baby
I'm OK, honey
I'm only travellin' thru this state of mine
Hey it's alright, Mama
I'm doin' fine now, Mama
I'm only in a certain state of mind.

When I go to heaven
Hog Hog heaven
I'll have a drink with Elvis while Marlon's on his way
We're kockin' and we're revvin'
We're dressing up in style
It's time to take a ride on that freeway in the sky.

* Repeat x 2

Come on, come on

Love is all
Love is all around you
Love is there in your laughter
In your hair
Love flows everywhere.
Love is old
Love is older than you
But the light shining through
Makes me see
Your love is all new.
Hey
Sha la la
Shine a light
Shine on me
Shine your light on me
Sha la la
Shine your light on me.
Love is all
Love will always be The Law
And higher love radiates on us all
On us all.

I left and wrote this song cos my life looked so shattered
I thank the Lord I'm still strong like before
I picked myself up from the floor and tried

I tried just a little bit harder, oh yea
If someone wants you to bleed and it feels like your're dying
Don't make the movers you don't need, don't cry, just say ba-ba-bye-bye and try, try

Try just a little bit harder, you'll survive
Try just a little bit harder, go ahead and try

Mondays and rainy days were in my pocket
I don't want to send them on to you
Bring them to you

I see you comb your hair and gimme that grin.
It's making me spin now, spinnin' within.
Before I met like snow, I say hello
- How do you do! I love the way you undress now.
Baby begin. Do your caress, honey, my heart's in
a mess. I love your blue-eyed voice, like
Tiny Tim Shines thru. How do you do!

Well, here we are crackin' jokes in the corner
of our mouths and I feel like I'm laughing in a dream.
If I was young I could wait outside your school
'cos your face is like the cover of a magazine.

How do you do, do you do, the things that you do.
No one I know could ever keep up with you.
How do you do! Did it ever make sense to you to
say Bye Bye Bye?

I see you in that chair with perfect skin.
Well, how have you been, baby, livin' in sin?
Hey, I gotta know, did you say hello - How do you do?

Well, here we are spending time in the louder part
of town and it feels like everything's surreal.
When I get old I will wait outside your house
'cos your hands have got the power meant to heal.

How do you do...

You're sliding down a dream, o yea.
Where nights are born in blue, that's the truth.
You're swimming in a stream, o yea.
Fish are jumping too, next to you.
Suddenly you notice someone's at the door,
you could swear you've been through this all before.

Then she runs her fingertips through your hair.
Your life has just begun.
Her fingers, they are everywhere.
You're floating light like air,
leaving the ground and she shines on just like the sun.

You're gazing at the sky, o my.
The stars are out tonight, shining bright.
You're waving to a cloud, bye-bye.
You're drowning in the smile of his eyes.
Suddenly you feel there's no time for a deal
though a voice tells you it's for real.

And she runs her fingertips through your hair
and life has just begun.
Her fingers, there and everywhere.
You're floating light like air,
leaving the ground. She-she shines on just like the sun.

It's just a sunny afternoon.
Somebody's singing songs of love, child.
You love a lazy afternoon once in a while
once in a while.

Then she runs her fingertips through your hair.
Your life has just begun.
Her fingers, they are everywhere.
You're floating light like air,
leaving the ground and she shines on just like the sun

Babe it's time
to tell me that it's over,
tell me that it's over,
it's plain to see.
And this time
we won't be starting over,
no crying on your shoulder
into the heart shaped sea.
Oh you've been a-running
from our door
and you've been enchanted
by the gracious voice of love.

Babe it's time
to look me in the eyes,
time to say goodbye,
it's clear to me.
And this time
I won't let you down,
you can turn around,
I'll set you free.
Oh you've been a-sailing
from our shore
and you've been enchanted
by someone from afar.

Babe it's time
to gather all the harvest,
to pray before the winter
and sail the heart shaped sea.
Oh you've been a-running
from my love
and you've been enchanted
by the powers up above.

I was rasied the Northern way
and my father had a Northern name
I did my crying out in the pouring rain
And a season turned into another one
I found a heart bright like the morning sun
He touched my lips, so softly, with his fingertips

But I kept the rain, falling down on me
All the time
All The time
I kept the rain, falling down on me
All the time
All The time

And some things in life won't ever change
There's a smell of a rusty chain
And of love disappearing like an aeroplane

But I kept the rain, falling down on me
All the time
All The time
I kept the rain, falling down on me
All the time
All The time

I hit the coast with the faith of a preacherman.
I saw a ghost with a face like a mad man.
I had this dream i was sleaping at the Royal Ball.
I hit the streets, hey watch me in the monitor.
I saw a clone who looked just like a senator.
I checked the clock, i felt that it was time to go go go.

Then came you...
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?

I was a spy, I was captured by the enemies.
I made a million selling secred fantasies.
I saw my love wasted in a pale grey zone.
I was the quake, shaking every monument.
I had to fi-find out what all the money ment.
I checked the sun, I knew that it was time to go go go.

Then came you...
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long?
Why did you keep me waiting so long

Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely
there's air of silence
In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now
I close my eyes And dream away

It must have been love
but it's over now
It must have been good
but I lost it somehow
It must have been love
but it's over now
It's where the water flows
It's where the wind blows

Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely
there's air of silence
In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now
I close my eyes And dream away
It must have been love
but it's over now
It must have been good
but I lost it somehow
It must have been love
but it's over now
From the moment we touched
'til the time had run out
Make believing we're together
That I'm sheltered by your heart
But in and outside
I've turned to water
Like a teardrop in your palm
And it's a hard
winter's day I dream away
It must have been love
but it's over now
It was all that I wanted
now I'm living without
It must have been love
but it's over now
It's where the water flows
It's where the wind blows
It's where the wind blows

It must have been love
but it's over now
It was all that I wanted
now I'm living without
It must have been love
but it's over now
It's where the water flows

Growing up on Cinnamon Street
Everywhere you look
there are lots of people to meet
it's seven o'clock, the breakfast treat
Now the schoolbus is here
hurry up and grab a seat
All the dreams are tiny ones
another week has just begun
on Cinnamon Street

There was a girl on Cinnamon Street
the same age as me we shared the curiosity
I won her heart cos I could play guitar
I promised her heaven
at once and later all the stars
But it all remained the same cos things
can never change on Cinnamon Street
I can hear my heartbeat
the very first time we made love
life was a lazy rest in the sun
Later we went dancing
staying up all night long
playing all our favourite songs
Cinnamon songs Oh oh na na na na na

I say goodbye to Cinnamon Street
Springtime is here
and the air is so dry and sweet
I walk in a cloud the smell of cinnamon bread
it's in my blood since the day
I was born until I wake up dead
And the sun is smiling gently
a funny shade of red Cinnamon Street
I still feel my heartbeat
the very first time we made love
life was a lazy day in the sun
Later we went dancing
hanging out all night long
singing all our favourite songs
Cinnamon songs Oh oh na na na na na na

You build it up and tear it down, there's no reason to follow you. You left the song without a sound, you left the story I made for you. Softly angels bow and cry in the stillness of the night Never is a long time - goodbye. No answers for the asking. It's a long time - goodbye. No mercy for the aching. It's a long time- oh I see no light on the forsaken. Never is a long time -goodbye. Let's spend the night when this dream has come to an end Sometime you laugh, sometimes you cry, and yes, I've cried over you. You've left me blind in paradise. You've left me hungering for the touch of you.
Snow white angels run and hide in the blackness of the night Never is a long time - goodbye. No answers for the asking. It's a long time - goodbye. No mercy for the aching. It's a long time- oh I see no light on the forsaken. Never is a long time -goodbye. Let's spend the night when this dream has come to an end Never is a long time

I got to get a message through, I don't know where we're going.
I wrap my arms around your naked shoulders, take cover for the night.
I see you in the morning rain, oh step inside nad lay beside me.
Tender can you close my eyes and blind me, oh give me just a smile...

Before I fade to silver, Silver Blue for you.
Before I fade to silver, Silver Blue for you.

I've turned into The Broken One who lost the inspiration.
i want to give you all my love like water to a blood red rose.
The Passion - I can't deal with her.
The Pain - well, I can do without him.
And this is like the milky way, an ocean that only grows and grows.

And babe I fade to silver, Silver Blue for you.
I turn and fade to silver, Silver Blue for you.

I wrap my arms around your naked shoulders,
take cover for the night.

And babe I fade to silver...

Every shape
of every word you say
that breaks the silence
of an ordinary day.
Every look
that seems to mystify,
every single smile
that spins me to the sky.
It makes me wanna run,
it makes me wanna hide.
Cos you're the only one
that makes me come alive.
It's getting closer now and darker by the hour.

It only goes to show
that here it comes,
here comes the weekend
and I'm on my own again
with a Saturday in the rain.
Here it comes,
here comes the weekend.
The fine line from pleasure to pain
is making me cry.
When will I see you again?

Every breath,
every vision you make.
Every chance in love
you love to take.
Every move
that seems to alter my world.
Every dream
I've had about this boy and this girl.
It makes me wanna run,
it makes me wanna hide
cos you're the only one
that makes my love alive
and time is running fast into a new goodbye.

It only goes to show
that here it comes,
here comes the weekend,
another walk down that lonely lane,
another Sunday that feels the same.
Here it comes,
here comes the weekend.
The fine line from pleasure to pain
is making me cry.
When will I see you again?

In the coldest time of year,
Darkness all around my heart.
I was alone but didn't fear
To wander in the light of stars.
In the bright and silent night,
Winds would knock and disappear.
Still I felt the feeling near,
Like the first time you were ever here.
You're so far away,
So far away,
You left me,
You told me you would stay.
You never said goodbye
And I'll keep asking why,
I keep on asking how,
Oh come unto me now.
I have breathed the morning air,
I have heard the four winds blow.
I was weary but prepared to follow
Down this lonely road.
In the room where lovers sleep,
Winds would knock and disappear.
Still I felt the music near,
Like the first time we were ever here.
You're so far away,
So far away,
You left me,
You told me you would stay.
You never said goodbye
And I keep wondering why,
I keep on wondering how,
Oh come inside me now.

Never looked back on a love affair
I never spent minutes in history it made me sad,it made me so sad
and in no time no time at all a change has begun and the name is You
I feel strange,youve made my life strange.
Cos baby when you get close to me
I say theres a certain chemistry.

Come back before you leave
i havent got room for a broken heart
Come back before you leave
you shouldnt go at all,you shouldnt go at all.

so many years and so many nights
I still can recall oh the way that you move when you dance,
do you want to dance?
weve had our habits and attitudes,
you make me remember the power when everythings right,
please stay the night.
Cos baby when you get close to me
theressomething about you I really need.

CHORUS

Babe,come back before you leave,
Ill be the air for you when you breathe,
ill be the rising sun.
Close the door,lets make love,all Gods angels sing above
into the rising sun.

CHORUS

Lay it down, pull my heart to the ground
Time's getting cold, now the leaves all turn hard and blue

And I know, when I gaze to the sun
No place to hide I got nowhere to run from you
Away from you

Hold me now, girl, I don't know when,
When we will ever meet again

That was then, baby this is now
I try to get over you

Losing you... things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
Things would never be...

In your hand, babe, I don't understand
You've got the eyes of a child but you hurt like a man, always do
Always do

Touch me now, girl I don't know when,
When we will ever meet again
That was then, baby this is now
Time won't get over you

Losing you... things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
Things would never be the same

1991 I hit the road out of nowhere,
I had to jump in my car and be a rider in a love game,
following the stars.
Don't need no book of wisdom,
I get no money talk at all.
She has a train going downtown,
she's got a club on the moon and she's telling all her secrets in a wonderful balloon.
Oh she's the heart of the funfair,
she's got me whistling her private tune.
And it all begins where it ends and she's all mine,
my magic friend.
She says: Hello,
you fool,
I love you.
C'mon join the joyride.
Join the joyride.
She's a flower,
I can paint her.
She's a child of the sun.
We're a part of this together,
could never turn around and run.
Don't need no fortune teller to know where my lucky love belongs,
oh no.
Cos it all begins again when it ends and we're all magic friends.
She says: Hello,
you fool,
I love you.
C'mon join the joyride.
Join the joyride.
Be a joyrider.
I take you on a skyride,
a feeling like you're spellbound.
The sunshine is a lady,
who ROX you like a baby.

In that big big house
there are fifty doors
and one of them leads to your heart.
In the time of spring
I passed your gate
and tried to make a start.
All I knew
was the scent of sea and dew
but I've been in love before, how about you?
There's a time for the good in life,
a time to kill the pain in life,
dream about the sun you queen of rain.

In that big old house
there are fifty beds
and one of them leads to your soul.
It's a bed of fear,
a bed of threats,
regrets and sheets so cold.
All I knew your eyes so velvet blue,
I've been in love before, how about you?
There's a time for the good in life...

Time went by
as I wrote your name in the sky,
fly fly away,
bye bye.

It's time to place your bets in life,
I've played the loser's game of life,
dream about the sun you queen of rain.

Well, I like you, I couldn′t think of anything but you
For a week I was in love with your hairdo
I couldn′t chew those muffins I used to
I knew I was way over the moon
When I met you, when I met you,
I didn′t know what to do.
When I saw you, when I saw you you said:

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I′m living in a box but I′m out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I′m living in a box but I′m out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I′m dying in a box but I′m out when opportunity rox on

I′m sleeping and I′m dreaming so solo
I saw you in the crowd in the front row
You couldn′t get it right in the disco
You′re dancing so much better in slo-mo
When I met you, when I met you,
I didn′t know what to do.
When I saw you, yeah, when I saw you, I said:

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I′m living in a box but I′m out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I′m living in a box but I′m out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I′m dying in a box but I′m out when opportunity rox on

Walking like a man, hitting like a hammer,
she's a juvenile scam. Never was a quitter,
tasty like a raindrop, she's got the look.

Heavenly bound cause heaven's got a number
when she's spinning me around, kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog, she's got the look.
She's got the look. She's got the look.

What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl
turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
and I go: la la la la la she's got the look.

Fire in the ice naked to the t-bone is a lover's
disguise. Banging on the head drum,
shaking like a mad bull, she's got the look.

Swaying to the band, moving like a hammer
she's a miracle man. Loving is the ocean,
kissing is the wet sand, she's got the look.
And she goes: na na na na na na na na.

Tried to make it little by little,
tried to make it bit by bit on my own.
Quit the job,
the grey believers,
another town where I get close to the bone.
Whatcha gonna tell your brother?
- oh oh oh whatcha gonna tell your father?
- I don′t know! Whatcha gonna tell your mother?
- Let me go... I′m gonna get dressed for success shaping me up for the big time,
baby.
Get dressed for success shaping it up for your love yea yea yea.
I′m not afraid,
a trembling flower,
I′ll feed your heart and blow the dust from your eyes and in the dark things happen faster.
I love the way you sway your hips next to mine.
Whatcha gonna tell your brother?
- oh oh oh... I′m gonna get dressed for success,
hitting a spot for the big time,
baby.
Get dressed for success shaping it up for your love.
Look sharp!

You pack your bag, you take control
You're moving into my heart and into my soul
Get out of my way! Get out of my sight!
I won't be walking on thin ice to get throught the night

Hey where's your work? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name...

Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,

The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
You turn around, so hot and dry,
You're hiding under a halo, your mouth is alive

Get out of my way! Get out of my sight!
I'm not attracted to go-go deeper tonight
Hey what's your word? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name...

Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet,

The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous

Oh just a little bit dangerous...
Hey what's your word? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name...

I hit the road out of nowhere,
I had to jump in my car
And be a rider in a love game
Following the stars,
Don't need no book of wisdom,
I get no money talk at all.
She has a train going downtown,
She's got a club on the moon
And she's telling all her secrets
In a wonderful balloon.
Oh she's the heart of the funfair,
She's got me whistling her private tune.
And it all begins where it ends,
And she's all mine,
My magic friend, she says:

Hello, you fool,
I love you,
C'mon join the joyride,
Join the joyride.

She's a flower,
I can paint her,
She's a child of the sun,
We're a part of this together,
Could never turn around and run.
Don't need no fortune teller
To know where my lucky love belongs oh no.
Cos it all begins again when it ends,
And we're all magic friends.
She says:

Hello, you fool,
I love you,
C'mon join the joyride,
Be a joyrider.
I take you on a skyride,
A felling like you're spellbound.
The sunshine is a lady
Who rox you like a baby.

She's the top, she's got the world on a string.
She makes me boogie, makes me do anything yea yea.
- hey now, touch the sky,
you've got a certain kind of look in your eyes. -

Well, she's a miracle, she's all that i need
like the water and the air that I breathe yea yea.
- hey now, reach the sky,
there's a certain kind of look in your smile. -
and I know what love can do.
Yes i know what hearts can do.

The big love
is taking the wheel, the big love
goes head over heels, the big lust,
bring it into the small world,
the bigger, the better. big love,
waiting to catch the big one,
head over heels, the big one,
bring it into the small world.
I'm building the big big love, I
'm building the big big love.

It's kinda strange, a bit mysterious,
I gotta take it oh so so serious.
- hey now, touch the sky,
you've got a certain kind of look in your eyes. -
It used to be so hard, so lonely at night,
well, she's my baby and I'm feeling alright.
- hey now, move the sky,
there's a certain kind of look in that smile. -

When I'm making love with her.
When I'm making love to her yea.
It has to be a big thing.
It's bringing me to my knees.
has to be a big thing,
big thing,
ya know what I'm saying...

can′t we leave the world outside just for a while?
just for a while?
and spend some time,
you and i,
under this bright glorious sky.
it′s been so long since i first saw you,
but i still love that smile in your eyes.
yes it′s true,
right from the start,
i believed in the church of your heart.
yes it′s you that made me be part of and believe in the church of your heart.
step inside,
lay yourself down just for a while,
rest for a while.
i can hear a thundering sound beating inside when you′re around.
it′s been so long since i first met you,
since we made love,
you know how time flies.
yes it′s true,
right from the start,
i believed in the church of your heart.
yes it′s you that made me be part of and believe in the church of your heart.
in the church of your heart.

How Do You Do!

I see you comb your hair and gimme that grin.
It's making me spin now, spinnin' within.
Before I melt like snow, I say Hello - How do you do!

I love the way you undress now. Baby begin.
Do your caress, honey, my heart's in a mess.
I love your blue-eyed voice, like Tiny Tim shines thru. How do you do!

Well, here we are crackin' jokes in the corner of our mouths
and I feel like I'm laughing in a dream.
If I was young I could wait outside your school
coz your face is like the cover of a magazine.

How do you do, do you do, the things that you do.
No one I know could ever keep up with you.
How do you do! Did it ever make sense to you to say Bye Bye Bye?

I see you in that chair with perfect skin.
Well, how have you been, baby, livin' in sin?
Hey, I gotta know, did you say Hello - How do you do?

Well, here we are spending time in the louder part of town
and it feels like everything's surreal.
When I get old I will wait outside your house
coz your hands have got the power meant to heal.

How do you do...

I′ll tell you what I′ve done
I′ll tell you what I′ll do
Been driving all nite just to get close to you
Baby Babe - I′m moving so fast
You′d better come on.
The moon is alright
The freeway′s heading south
My hard is going Boom!
There′s a strange taste in my mouth
Baby Babe - I′m moving real fast
So try to hold on
Try to hold on! Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making up.
So come out tonight
I′ll take you for a ride
This steamy ol′ wagon
The radio is getting wild
Baby Babe - we′re moving so fast
I try to hang on
Try to hang on! Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making love,
oh yea! Sleeping in my car - I will possess you
Sleeping in my car - certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car making up.
The night is so pretty and so young
The night is so pretty and so young
So very young... Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making love to you.
Sleeping in my car - I will possess you
Sleeping in my car - certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car making up.
I will undress you
I will undress you.
The night is so pretty and so young.

Baby,
sometimes I feel like dying
Driving while I′m closing my eyes
Moving in and out of hiding
Trying to catch some truth in my life
Watching your stars and your moonlight
Come tumbling down from the sky
Take it now.
I′m gonna run to you
I′m gonna come to you
I wanna find you
In everything that I do
I′m gonna run to you
I′m gonna count on you
I′m gonna follow
Baby,
what else can I do?
Sunday morning,
my town is sleeping
Lying all alone in my bed
There′s not a sound,
I can′t help but listening
Wishing I was somewhere else instead
But sometimes they′re too hard to handle
These voices inside my head
Listen now.
I′m gonna run to you
I′m gonna come to you
I wanna find you
In everything that I do
I′m gonna run to you
I′m gonna count on you
I′m gonna follow
Baby,
what else can I do?
Take a walk inside my dream: A church,
a lonely road
All the people come and go and come and go.
Do it now!

Didn′t I tell you everything is possible in this deja-vu?
Try the river boat,
the carousel,
feed the pigeons,
Bar-B-Q.
Look at all the people,
happy faces all around.
Smiling,
throwing kisses,
busy making lazy sounds
It′s a bright June afternoon,
it never gets dark.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun.
Get your green,
green tambourine,
let′s play in the park.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun
Some folks are on blankets,
slowly daydreaming and reaching for their food.
Let′s go buy an ice-cream and a magazine with an attitude
and put on a cassette,
we can pretend that you′re a star
cos life′s so very simple just like la-la-la
It′s a bright June afternoon...
There′s a painter painting his masterpiece.
There are some squirrels jumping in the trees,
There′s a wide-eyed boy with a red balloon.
All my life I′ve longed for this afternoon.

You Keep On Walkin′ On The Other Side
Other Side, Other Side
You Keep On Walkin′ On The Other Side
Other Side, Other Side
Wherever You Go, I′m Going With You
Shouldn′t You Know I′m Bound To Follow
Whatever You Say, Whatever You Do
I Give You A Clue, I′m Gonna Follow

Na Na Na, Na Na Na
Why Don′t You Open, Make Me Come Along
Na Na Na, Na Na Na

Like Fire And Wood And Paper And Glue
Only A Few Were Born To Follow

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited,
a little in pain? Tell me
What am I gonna say when I find the centre of my heart
is a suburb to the brain?
Marie:
You wear them so well, those innocent eyes
You're puttin' on a wonderful disguise
I want you so bad. I'm pushing my luck
It feels like being hit by a truck
This is no place special. Don't know why I came
If someone has a minute, won't you explain
Per:

Nothing for the sane (Nothing for the sane)

Right at the front door I recognised the perfume
The scent was perfect in the dusk by the moon
There must be many ways to ask her to my room
Why didn′t I dare?

Well, every hour I try to get somethin′ done
Out on the weekend when I′m just havin′ some fun
I′m windin′ up with none, just zeros, no 1′s, just space with no air

I get: ″Bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye...
Real sugar, I don′t wanna climb no walls
Real ugar, that′s what I want or none at all
Real sugar, sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar, that′s what I want and what I need
That′s what I need

Yeh, every Friday I′m gattin′ ready to roll
I want her blue eyes start sayin′ ″Hi″ and ″Hello″
But I can always tell she′d rather be alone with some other guy

I get: ″Bye-bye baby-baby bye baby-baby bye-bye...
Real sugar, I don′t wanna climb no walls
Real sugar, that′s what I want or none at all
Real sugar, sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar, that′s what I want and what I need
Real sugar, I don′t wanna climb no walls
Real sugar, that′s what I want or none at all
Real sugar, sweet as a sweet can be
Real sugar, that′s what your′ve got so what′s for me? Hey, what′s fo me?


I turn myself in, trun trun trun
I turn myself out. outside and in
Gimme gimme real sugar
I don′t wanna climb no walls

She had those magic eyes you could see from miles around
She wore her summer dresses bright
Quite like the sky
She always came in colors
All smiles in daffodils
She let her hair down in the breeze

But every little thing has changed today, little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale and faded, little Miss Sorrow
The sunlight doesn't show
Although the colors go
Out through the window

She used to go out dancing
Cool silver fingernails
I used to watch her from the bar
Following her car
She always came in colors
She always kept control
She painted yesterday in gold

But every little thing turned grey today, little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale and faded, little Miss Sorrow
The sunlight doesn't show
All the colors go
Even the rainbow

Allow me to introduce myself
I'm just a local boy
She was my little Miss Joy
I want to call her name
My life won't be the same
Dear God

Every little thing has changed today, little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale and faded, little Miss Sorrow
Yes, every little thing turned grey today, little Miss Sorrow
The weakling plays the strong
The bird forgot the song
What's going on?
What's going on?
Tell me what's going on?
What's going on?
What's going on?
Tell me what's going on?

Everything you do you do so right
the clothes you buy are awfully nice
you wear your image bullet-proof
your stocks are always thru the roof

you make me feel so stupid
make me feel stupid

and you grew up made in the sun
they all loved you from day 1
you always remembered everyone′s name
you always won the guessin′ games
ooh yeah

you made me feel so stupid
made me feel stupid
and I′m not gonna take it anymore
not gonna take it anymore

you always pick the perfect wine
your money is sho nuff greener than mine
your wit pours out when you open your mouth
my hometown is smaller than your house

you make me feel so stupid
make me feel stupid
and I′m not gonna take it anymore
not gonna take it anymore

If there was a night to say
Something to cherish on a rainy day
If I close my eyes I go blind
I′m in the middle of a rush, rush

Makin love to you
Is all I ever wanted to do

Am I leaving world behind?
I laugh at all the things I′ve done for you
If there was a dream to say
I′m in the middle of a rush, rush

Makin love to you
Is all I ever wanted to do

Makin love
Makin love to you
Makin love
Makin love to you

Your love is so sweet to recall
The greatest of them all
I′m easy on my knees for you

Makin love to you
I couldn′t love you any more than I do
God knows it′s all I wanted to do

Makin love to you
Is all I wanna do
Is all I wanted to do
Is all I ever wanted to do

my girl
came home to me
just the other day
acting okay

I was
reading alone
in my favourite room
the TV was on

may i be excused
for not telling the truth ?

′cos
she′s gone
she said
she′s better off on her own
she turned
her head
much better off one her own

my girl
knocked on the door
to the place I usually
refer to as home
I died
surely some tide
should have dimmed my eyes
small and surprised

and God closed every gate
the moon fell into the lake

boy
she′s gone
she′s better off on her own
she closed
and she left
much better off on her own

sitting naked
by the window sill
watching cars upon the hill
am I sleeping ?
I was dreaming
for just a moment time stood still
Hey

better off on her own
better off on her own

now
she′s gone (better off on her own)
she said (she′s better off on her own)
she′s better off on her own
she turned (better off on her own)
her head (she′s better off on her own)
much better off on her own

she′s gone (better off on her own)
she sighed (she′s better off on her own)
she′s better off on her own
the tears (better off on her own)
I cried (she′s better off on her own)
much better off on her own

my girl
came home to me
just the other day

You promised me it would last forever
You said there′s no way it could die
Everything you ever told me
Was a bunch of lies

Hey, I′m on the back of the outside
You know that′s not where I belong, no
Every truth, everything I believed in
Has turned out wrong

It′s all bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart so many times
A lot of bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart

It′s all clear when you scratch on the surface
Going deeper deeper down
All I wanted was to make you happy
But baby, what′s that sound?
But baby, what′s that sound?

It′s all bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart so many times
A lot of bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
You broke my heart

All you ever cared for was to make you stronger
No-one I have known has looked so weak
Oh yeah

It′s all bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart so many times
A lot of bla bla bla bla bla

A lot of bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart so many times
A lot of bla bla bla bla bla
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
So many times

Halfway through the night
I wake up in a dream
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream

I dreamed I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
Over the trees
Subways and cars
I'd try to find out
Who you really are

In the middle of the night
Cool sweatin' in my bed
Got the windows open wide
Thinkin' about all the things you said

I wish I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
I'd fly over rooftops
the great boulevards
To try to find out
Who you really are
Who you really are

I wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now

I wish I could fly
Around and around
Over this town
The dirt on the ground
I'd follow your course
Of doors left ajar
To try to find out
Who you really are

To try to find out
Who you really are

I Saw Red, Stayed At Home
Placed A Big Pillow Over The Phone
In This Town Where I'm From
I've Learned Two Is So Much Better Than One

But You Left Me Alone
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone
Watch You Sink Like A Stone
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone

Well, You Hurt To The Core
You Used To Kiss Like No One Had Done Before
And Your Taste Turned Me On
Now You Drive Me Real Crazy Just By Being Born

Cos You Left (Left Left Left) Me Alone (Left Me Alone)
And You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone
Watch You Sink Like A Stone
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone

Baba B-Baba B-Baba Ba
Baba B-Baba B-Baba Ba

Took The Tram 'Round The Bay
Where Everyone Tells You To Have A Nice Day
And My Pride Almost Broke
When The Tears Don't Fit You, You Look Like A Joke

And You Left (Left Left Left) Me Alone (Left Me Alone)
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone
Cryin' Eyes Gettin' Worn
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone

Hey, You Left (Left Left Left) Me Alone (Left Me Alone)
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone
Watch You Sink Like A Stone
You Can't Put Your Arms Around What's Already Gone

utiful Things
Are Comin' My Way
Beautiful Things
I Want Them To Stay
But After A While
My Beautiful Things
Don't Seem Beautiful At All

Terrible Things
Like When You Wake Up
And All Of Your Dreams
Seem To Crack Up
Like Things You Have Done
Like Breakin' My Heart
For You It Don't Seem
Terrible At All

Is There Someone I Can Talk To?
Someone On The Line?
Does Anybody Want To Hear
What's On My Mind?

Beautiful Things
Like Leaves On A Tree
Beautiful Things
The Sky And The Sea
Since You Been Gone
No Beautiful Things
Seem Beautiful To Me

Is There Someone I Can Talk To?
Someone Out There On The Line?
Does Anybody Want To Hear
What's On My Mind?

Make The Grass Grow In The Garden
When The Rain Is Passin' By
Does Anybody Want To Know

It must have been love
but it's over now.
Lay a whisper on my pillow,
leave the winter on the ground.
I wake up lonely,
there's air of silence in the bedroom
and all around.
Touch me now,
I close my eyes
and dream away.

It must have been love
but it's over now.
It must have been good
but I lost it somehow.
It must have been love
but it's over now.
From the moment we touched
'til the time had run out.

Make believing we're together,
that I'm sheltered by your heart.
But in and outside
I've turned to water like a teardrop
in your palm.
And it's a hard winter's day,
I dream away.

It must have been love
but it's over now,
it was all that I wanted,
now I'm living without.
It must have been love
but it's over now,
it's where the water flows,
it's where the wind blows.

It must have been love
but it's over now.
It must have been good
but I lost it somehow.
It must have been love
but it's over now.
From the moment we touched
'til the time had run out.

It must have been love
but it's over now,
it was all that I wanted,
now I'm living without.
It must have been love
but it's over now,
it's where the water flows,
it's where the wind blows.
