In the night a new day dawning
And the first birds start to sing In the pale light of the morning Nothing's worth remembering It's a dream, it's out of reach Scattered driftwood on a beach 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 a 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 When the night comes with the action I just know it's time to go Can't resist the strange attraction From that giant dynamo Lots to take and lots to give Time to breathe and time to live Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark Summer night city Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park Summer night city It's elusive call it glitter Somehow something turns me on Some folks only see the litter We don't miss them when they're gone I love the feeling in the air My kind of people everywhere When the night comes with the action I just know it's time to go Can't resist the strange attraction From that giant dynamo And tomorrow, when it's dawning And the first birds start to sing In the pale light of the morning Nothing's worth remembering It's a dream, it's out of reach Scattered driftwood on a beach Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark Summer night city Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park Summer night city |

Keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
I keep thinking 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 And I thought maybe I should walk right up to her and say It's a game he likes to play Look into his angeleyes One look and you're hypnotized He'll take your heart and you must pay the price Look into his angeleyes You'll think you're in paradise And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise Don't look too deep into those angeleyes Oh no no no no Keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes I keep thinking Sometimes when I'm lonely I sit and think about him And it hurts to remember all the good times When I thought I could never live without him And I wonder does it have to be the same Every time when I see him, will it bring back all the pain How can I forget that name Look into his angeleyes One look and you're hypnotized He'll take your heart and you must pay the price Look into his angeleyes You'll think you're in paradise And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise Don't look too deep into his angeleyes Crazy 'bout his angeleyes Angeleyes Once he took my heart and now I pay the price Look into his angeleyes You'll think you're in paradise And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise Don't look too deep into those angeleyes Oh no no no no Keep thinking Keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes Keep thinking Keep thinking, I had to pay the price |

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 twelve or so The usual place, the usual bunch And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must have rained The day before you came I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two And at the time I never even noticed I was blue I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away At five I must have left, there's no exception to the rule A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I finished school The train back home again Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within its usual frame The day before you came I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then I must have read a while The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style It's funny, but I had no sense of living without aim The day before you came And turning out the light I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain The day before you came |

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 forests and seas And to go anywhere that I please As all good friends we talk all night, and we fly wing to wing I have questions and they know everything There's no limit to what I feel, we climb higher and higher Am I dreaming or is it all real? Is it true I'm an eagle? Is it true I can spread my wings? Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky (I'm an eagle) I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, what a feeling to fly (What a feeling) Over mountains and forests and seas And to go anywhere that I please 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) I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, what a feeling to fly (What a feeling) Over mountains and forests and seas Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky (I'm an eagle) I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, what a feeling to fly (What a feeling) Over mountains and forests and seas And to go anywhere that I please |

I hear the doorbell 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 door-knob None of my friends would be so stupidly impatient And they don't dare to come here Anymore now But how I loved our secret meetings We talked and talked in quiet voices Smiling Now I hear them moving Muffled noises coming through the door I feel I'm Crackin' up Voices growing louder, irritation building And I'm close to fainting Crackin' up They must know by now I'm in here trembling In a terror evergrowing Crackin' up My whole world is falling, going crazy There is no escaping now, I'm Crackin' up These walls have witnessed all the anguish of humiliation And seen the hope of freedom glow in shining faces And now they've come to take me Come to break me And yet it isn't unexpected I have been waiting for these visitors Help me Now I hear them moving Muffled noises coming through the door I feel I'm Crackin' up Voices growing louder, irritation building And I'm close to fainting Crackin' up They must know by now I'm in here trembling In a terror evergrowing Crackin' up My whole world is falling, going crazy There is no escaping now, I'm Crackin' up Now I hear them moving Muffled noises coming through the door I feel I'm Crackin' up Voices growing louder, irritation building And I'm close to fainting Crackin' up (I have been waiting for these visitors) They must know by now I'm in here trembling In a terror evergrowing Crackin' up (I have been waiting for these visitors) My whole world is falling, going crazy There is no escaping now, I'm Crackin' up (I have been waiting for these visitors) Now I hear them moving Muffled noises coming through the door I feel I'm Crackin' up (I have been waiting for these visitors) Voices growing louder, irritation building And I'm close to fainting Crackin' up (I have been waiting for these visitors) They must know by now I'm in here trembling In a terror evergrowing Crackin' up (I have been waiting for these visitors) My whole world is falling, going crazy There is no escaping now, I'm Crackin' up |

The summer air was soft and warm
The feeling right The Paris night Did it best to please us And strolling down the Elysee We had a drink in each cafe And you You talked of politics and 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 that remain We made our way along in the river And we sat down in the grass By the Eiffel tower I was so happy we had met It was the age of no regret Oh yes Those crazy years That was the time of the flower-power But underneath We had a fear of flying Of getting old A fear of slowly dying We took the chance Like we were dancing our last dance *Repeat In the tourist jam Round the Notre Dame Our last summer Walking hand in hand Paris restaurants Our last summer Morning croissants Living for the day Worries far away Our last summer We could laugh and play And now you'e working in bank The family man A football fan And your name is Harry How dull it seems Yet you're the hero of my dreams * Repeat Walks along the Seine Laughing in the rain Our last summer Memories that remain *Repeat In the tourist jam Round the Notre Dame Our last summer Walking hand in hand Paris restaurants Our last summer Morning croissants Living for the day Worries far away Our last summer We could laugh and play |

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 it's great Brother can you tell me what is right and what is wrong" He said, "Keep on rocking baby, 'til the night is gone" On and on and on Keep on rocking baby 'Til the night is gone On and on and on 'Til the night is gone On and on and on Keep on rocking baby 'Til the night is gone On and on and on 'Til the night is gone Over in the corner I could see this other guy He was kinda flirty, he was giving me the eye So I took advantage of the fact that I'm a star Shook my hair and took a casual stroll up to the bar And as sure as hell this guy was coming up to me He said, "Who am I and who are you and who are we What's our situation, do we have some time for us" I said I was not exactly waiting for the bus He said, "If you're going somewhere can I come along" I said, "Keep on rocking baby, 'til the night is gone" On and on and on Keep on rocking baby 'Til the night is gone On and on and on 'Til the night is gone On and on and on Keep on rocking baby 'Til the night is gone On and on and on 'Til the night is gone |

I've always hated my room,
it's so gloomy and dreary Always too dark, for the windows just face the back yard So I can't understand how it's happened, how everything'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 everywhere Baby, even when you're not there The lovelight Everything around you is lovelight You're shining like a star in the night I won't let you out of my sight I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight How I remember the first time we went to a movie We had decided to meet on a corner downtown And I waited there when you came up from behind and you kissed me And the traffic seemed to get a little lighter When you came into my life it all got so much brighter You must have a lovelight Everything around you is lovelight And I can feel your love everywhere Baby, even when you're not there The lovelight Everything around you is lovelight You're shining like a star in the night I won't let you out of my sight I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight And I feel so good And I feel so right And I know that you must have a lovelight You've got lovelight And I can feel your love everywhere Maybe even when you're not there You've got lovelight Everything around you is lovelight You're shining like a star in the night I won't let you out of my sight I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose your lovelight Everything about you is right Let it glow and let it be bright I don't want to lose your lovelight Shining like a star in the night |

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 playing-ground where she goes rushing) Head over heels Setting the pace Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace She's extreme, if you know what I mean Her man is one I admire He's so courageous but he's constantly tired Each time when he speaks his mind She pats his head and says, "That's all very fine" Exert that will of your own When you're alone Now we'd better hurry 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 playing-ground where she goes rushing) Head over heels Setting the pace Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace She's extreme, if you know what I mean 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 playing-ground where she goes rushing) Head over heels Setting the pace Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace She's extreme, if you know what I mean (She's just one of those who always has to do whatever she please) And she goes Head over heels |

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 still, but then he just smiled I was in the seventh heaven when I kissed the teacher One of these days Gonna tell him I dream of him every night One of these days Gonna show him I care, gonna teach him a lesson alright I was in a trance when I kissed the teacher Suddenly I took the chance when I kissed the teacher Leaning over me, he was trying to explain the laws of geometry And I couldn't help it, I just had to kiss the teacher One of these days Gonna tell him I dream of him every night One of these days Gonna show him I care, gonna teach him a lesson alright What a crazy day, when I kissed the teacher All my sense had flown away when I kissed the teacher My whole class went wild As I held my breath, the world stood still, but then he just smiled I was in the seventh heaven when I kissed the teacher (I wanna hug, hug, hug him) When I kissed the teacher (I wanna hug, hug him) When I kissed the teacher (I wanna hug, hug, hug him) When I kissed the teacher (I wanna hug, hug him) When I kissed the teacher (I wanna hug, hug, hug him) |

Coming through a cloud you're looking at me from above
And I'm a revelation spreading out before your eyes And you find me beautiful and irresistible A giant creature that forever seems to grow in size And you feel a strange attraction The air is vibrant and electrified Welcome to me here I am, my arms are open wide Somewhere in the middle of the neverending noise There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats And a million voices blend into a single voice And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets People come and take their chances Sometimes you win sometimes you lose a lot Come make your own contribution to this melting pot I'm the street you walk The language you talk I am the city The skyline is me and the energy I am the city The famous hotels and the cocktail bars And the funny smells And the turmoil, the cars and the people The air that you're breathing is me Yes I am the city you let me be People feed me with their lives I am a hungry soul And they all worship me and pay their homage day and night Every day I knew a lot of tired shopping feet But come the night they will be dancing in the neon light Dazzled by the crazy magic They're grabbing pieces of the fatted calf And in the wind if you listen hard you'll hear me laugh I'm the street you walk The language you talk I am the city The skyline is me and the energy I am the city The famous hotels and the cocktail bars And the funny smells And the turmoil, the cars and the people The parks and the squares that you see All the sounds that you hear And the air that you're breathing is me Yes, I am the city you let me be I am the city You let me be I am the city The famous hotels and the cocktail bars And the funny smells And the turmoil, the cars and the people The air that you're breathing is me Coming through a cloud You're looking at me from above And I'm a revelation spreading out before your eyes I'm the street you walk The language you talk I am the city Yes I am the city you let me be And you find me beautiful and irresistible A giant creature that forever seems to grow in size The skyline is me and the energy I am the city You let me be Somewhere in the middle of the neverending noise There is a constant steady rhythm of a heart that beats I'm the street you walk The language you talk I am the city Yes I am the city you let me be And a million voices blend into a single voice And you can hear it in the clamour of the crowded streets The skyline is me and the energy I am the city You let me be |

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 dawning Some of us wanted but none of us could Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour So in the morning your ship will be sailing Now that your father and sister are gone There is no reason for you to linger You're grieving deeply but still moving on You know the future is casting a shadow No one else sees it but you know you're fate Packing your bags, being slow and thorough Knowing, though you're late, that ship is sure to wait Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted but none of us could Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour I watched the ship leaving harbour at sunrise Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain She stood on deck, just a tiny figure Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood Now the last day is dawning Some of us wanted but none of us could Listen to words of warning But on the darkest of nights Nobody knew how to fight And we were caught in our sleep Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe You really had the power I only saw it as dreams you would weave Until the final hour I'm sorry Cassandra I'm sorry Cassandra |

Don't know how to take it, don't know where to go
My resistance running low And every day 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, defences breaking Won't somebody please have a heart Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart Under attack, I'm taking cover He's on my track, my chasing lover Thinking nothing can stop him now Should I want to, I'm not sure I would know how This is getting crazy, I should tell him so Really let my anger show Persuade him that the answer to his questions is a definite no (I'm kind of certain that's the truth) Guess I'm kind of flattered but I'm scared as well Something like a magic spell I hardly dare to think of what could happen, where I'd be if I fell Under attack, I'm being taken About to crack, defences breaking Won't somebody please have a heart Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart Under attack, I'm taking cover He's on my track, my chasing lover Thinking nothing can stop him now Should I want to, I'm not sure I would know how Under attack, I'm being taken About to crack, defences breaking Won't somebody please have a heart Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart Under attack, I'm taking cover He's on my track, my chasing lover Thinking nothing can stop him now Should I want to, I'm not sure I would know how |

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 striving for the sky No taste for humble pie Thanks for all your generous love and thanks for all the fun Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done It's so strange when you're down and lying on the floor How you rise, shake your head, get up and ask for more Clear-headed and open-eyed With nothing left untried Standing calmly at the crossroads, no desire to run There's no hurry any more when all is said and done Standing calmly at the crossroads, no desire to run There's no hurry any more when all is said and done |
