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 phone 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 midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Movie stars Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win It’s so different from the world I’m living in Tired of t.v. I open the window and I gaze into the night But there’s nothing there to see, no one in sight 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 midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight... Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight... 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 midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day |

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-ahaaa All the things I could do If I had a little money It's a rich man's world A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind Ain't it sad? And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me That's too bad! So I must leave, I'll have to go To Las Vegas or Monaco And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same... Money, money, money Must be funny In the rich man's world Money, money, money Always sunny In the rich man's world Aha-ahaaa All the things I could do If I had a little money It's a rich man's world Money, money, money Must be funny In the rich man's world Money, money, money Always sunny In the rich man's world Aha-ahaaa All the things I could do If I had a little money It's a rich man's world It's a rich man's world |

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 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 the 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 the beach Waiting for the sunrise Soul dancing in the dark Summer night city Walking in the moonlight Love-making in the park Summer night city (repeat 2x and fade) |

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me I wasn't jealous before we met Now every man 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 still don't know what you've done with me A grown up woman should never fall so easily I feel a kind of fear When I don't have you near Unsatisfied I skip my pride I beg you dear Don't go wasting your emotion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your devotion Lay all your love on me I've had a few little love affairs They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce I used to think that was sensible It makes the truth even more incomprehensible Cause everything is new And everything is you And all I've learned Has overturned What can I do Don't go wasting your emotion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your devotion Lay all your love on [me] Don't go wasting your emotion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your devotion Lay all your love on me |

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 can I carry on? You seem so far away though you are standing near You made me feel alive, but something died I fear I really tried to make it out I wish I understood What happened to our love, it used to be so good * Repeat So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me S. O. S. And 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 can I carry on? When you're gone How can I even try to go on? When you're gone Though I try how can I carry on? |

I've seen you twice
In a short time Only a week since we started It seems to be 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 Cause I have to know I'm a bashful child Beginning to grow And you make me talk And you make me feel And you make me show What I'm trying to conceal If I trust in you Would you let me down Would you laugh at me If I said I cared for you Could you feel the same way too I wanna know The name of the game (Your smile and the sound of your voice) Does it mean anything to you (Doesn't mean any pivotal choice But it means a lot) What's the name of the game (Your smile and the sound of your voice) Can you feel it the way I do Tell me please Cause I have to know I'm a bashful child Beginning to grow And you make me talk And you make me feel And you make me show What I'm trying to conceal If I trust in you Would you let me down Would you laugh at me If I said I cared for you Would you feel the same way too I wanna know Oh yes I wanna know The name of the game (I was an impossible case) Does it mean anything to you (But I think I can see in your face That it means a lot) What's the name of the game (Your smile and the sound of your voice) Can you feel it the way I do (Doesn't mean any pivotal choice But it means a lot) What's the name of the game (I was an impossible case) Does it mean anything to you (But I think I can see in your face That it means a lot) What's the name of the game (Your smile and the sound of your voice)... |

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 of us prepared to die And I'm not ashamed to say The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando They were shining there for you and me For liberty, Fernando Though I never thought that we could lose There's no regret If I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando Now we're old and grey, Fernando And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand Can you hear the drums, Fernando? Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the Rio Grande? I can see it in your eyes How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando They were shining there for you and me For liberty, Fernando Though I never thought that we could lose There's no regret If I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando They were shining there for you and me For liberty, Fernando Though I never thought that we could lose There's no regret If I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando Yes, if I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando... |

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 life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk Mmm, she says I began to sing long before I could talk And I've often wondered, how did it all start? Who found out that nothing can capture a heart Like a melody can? Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan 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 life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair I wanna sing it out to everybody What a joy, what a life, what a chance! 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 life be? Without a song or a dance what are we? So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me So I say thank you for the music For giving it to me |

I don't wanna talk About 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's 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 I'd be strong there But I was a fool Playing by the rules The gods may throw a dice Their minds as cold as ice And someone way down here Loses someone dear The winner takes it all The loser has to fall It's simple and it's plain Why should I complain But tell me does she kiss Like I used to kiss you Does it feel the same When she calls your name Somewhere deep inside You must know I miss you But what can I say Rules must be obeyed The judges will decide The likes of me abide Spectators of the show Always staying low The game is on again A lover or a friend A big thing or a small The winner takes it all I don't wanna talk If it makes you feel sad And I understand You've come to shake my hand I apologize If it makes you feel bad Seeing me so tense No self-confidence But you see The winner takes it all The winner takes it all (So the winner takes it all) (And the loser has to fall) (Throw a dice, cold as ice) (Way down here, someone dear) (Takes it all, has to fall) (And it's plain, I complain) <i>(fade)</i> |

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 a lonely bed. Staring at the ceiling, wishing she was somewhere else instead. One of us is lonely. One of us is only Waiting for a call. Sorry for herself. Feeling stupid, feeling small. Wishing she had never left at all. I saw myself as a concealed attraction. I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action. Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving. That's how I started the show. One of us had to go. Now I'm changed and I want you to know One of us is crying. One of us is lying in a lonely bed. Staring at the ceiling, wishing she was somewhere else instead. One of us is lonely. One of us is only Waiting for a call. Sorry for herself. Feeling stupid, feeling small. Wishing she had never left at all. Never left at all. Staring at the ceiling, wishing she was somewhere else instead. One of us is lonely One of us is only Waiting for a call Sorry for herself Feeling stupid, feeling small Wishing she had never left at 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 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 |
