(Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Guy Allison)
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 |

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? |

Are you sure you wanna hear more
What if I ain't worth the while Not the style you'd be looking 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't you realise I may be an angel in disguise It's lonely to be free But I'm not a man's toy, I'll never be I'm Carrie not-the-kind-of-girl-you'd-marry That's me I don't believe in fairy-tales Sweet nothings in my ear But I do believe in sympathy That's me, you see Are you sure you wanna hear more Won't you have a drink with me Just to see you're not really sore I can't help my ways I'm just not the girl to hide my face I'm Carrie not-the-kind-of-girl-you'd-marry That's me, mmm I'm Carrie not-the-kind-of-girl-you'd-marry That's me There's a special love Like an eagle flying with a dove I'll find it in the end If I keep on searching, but until then I'm Carrie not-the-kind-of-girl-you'd-marry That's me |

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... |

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) |

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)... |

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 (This time we're through, this time we're through This time we're through, we're really through) Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go (I have to go this time I have to go, this time I know) Knowing me, knowing you It's the best I can do Mem'ries (mem'ries), good days (good days), bad days (bad days) They'll be (they'll be), with me (with me) always (always) In these old familiar rooms children would play Now there's only emptiness, nothing to say 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 (This time we're through, this time we're through This time we're through, we're really through) Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go (I have to go this time I have to go, this time I know) Knowing me, knowing you It's the best I can do |

I got appointments, work I have to do
Keeping me so busy all the day through They're the things that keep me from thinking of you Ohhh 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 doing alright if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it) I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it) How I fear the time when shadows start to fall Sitting here alone and staring at the wall Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights (Even I could see a light I think that I could make it) Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it) No one to turn to, you know how it is I was not prepared for something like this Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss Ohhh baby, I feel so bad, I know I'm never gonna make it I got my business to help me through the day People I must write to, bills I must pay But everything's so different when night's on its way It's bad, oh, so bad Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it) I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it) How I fear the time when shadows start to fall Sitting here alone and staring at the wall Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights (Even I could see a light I think that I could make it) Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it) If it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it) if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it) Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights (Even I could see a light I think that I could make it) Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it) If it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it) If it wasn't for the nights (If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it) Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights (Even I could see a light I think that I could make it) Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights |

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 |
