Hey lady, you lady
cursing at your life you're a discontented mother and a regimented wife I have no doubt you dream about the things you never do but I wish someone had talked to me like I wanna talk to you Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run Took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun But I ran out of places and friendly faces Because I had to be free I've been to paradise but I've never been to me... Please lady please lady don't just walk away Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today I can see so much of me still living in your eyes won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived a million lives Oh, I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece when I sipped champagne on a yacht I moved like Harlo in Monte Carlo and showed them what I've got I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't s'pose to see I've been to paradise but I've never been to me... Hey, you know what paradise is? It's a lie a fantasy we created about people and places as we like them to be but you know what truth is? it's that little baby you're holding and it's that man you fought with this morning the same one you are gonna make love to tonight that's truth that's love sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete but I, I took the sweet life I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet I spent my life exploring the subtle whoreing that cost to much to be free hey lady I've been to paradise but I've never been to me... I've been to paradise but I've never been to me... |

Many Rivers To Cross But I Can't Seem To Find My Way Over Wandering I'm Lost As I Travel Along The White Cliffs Of Dover Many Rivers To Cross And It's Only My Will That Keeps Me Alive I've Been Ripped, Washed Up For Years And I Merely Survive Because Of My Pride And This Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone It's Such A Drag To Be On Your Own My Women Left Me But She Wouldn't Say Why Guess I'll Just Break Right Down And Cry Many Rivers To Cross But Just Where To Begin I'm Playing For Time There've Been Times I Find Myself Thinking Of Committing Some Terrible Crime Still This Loneliness Won't Leave Me Alone It's Such A Drag To Be On Your Own My Girl Left Me But She Wouldn't Say Why Guess I'll Just Break Right Down And Cry Many Rivers To Cross But I Can't Seem To Find My Way Over Wandering I Am Lost As I Travel Along The White Cliffs Of Dover Many Rivers To Cross And It's Only My Will That Keeps Me Alive I've Been Ripped, Washed Up For Years And I Merely Survive Because Of My Pride |

Every night I have the same old dream 'bout you and me and what's in between So many changes, so many lies Try to run, try to hide )From everything that I feel inside But I can't escape you or your frozen eyes... Searching in the darkness Fading out of sight Love was here and gone like a thief in the night... Stone Cold... and I thought I knew you so well Stone Cold Can't break away from your spell Another dark and empty night If I was wrong I wanna make it right But you are so distant, so far away Your words like ice fall on the ground Breaking the silence without a sound Oh familiar strangers with nothing to say Searching in the darkness Fading out of sight Love was here and gone like a thief in the night... Stone Cold... and I thought I knew you so well... Stone Cold Can't break away from your spell... You leave me Stone Cold Searching in the darkness Fading out of sight Love was here and gone like a thief in the night... Stone Cold... and I thought I knew you so well Stone Cold Can't break away from your spell You're Stone Cold...yeah I can't break away from your spell Stone Cold...baby I thought I knew you so well You're stone cold...ice cold Can't break away from your spell (you put me in the deep freeze) (oh baby don't you leave me) (stone...cold, your leavin' me cold) Stone Cold...I thought I knew you so well Stone Cold...Can't break away from your spell repeat til fade |

(Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Richard Supa)
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 |

I can see that it won't be long
You grow cold when you keep holding on You know you've changed and your words, they lie That's something you can't deny I call, you're not at home You're home, but you're not alone If you wanna leave then why don't you say it Your love has gone anyway I know there's something going on I know there's something going on I know it won't be long Won't be long before you're gone There's something going on There's something going on I know a good thing must come to an end But it's hard to take losing a friend I know what you think and what's in your mind So darling, look, why pretend I know there's something going on I know there's something going on I know it won't be long It won't be long before you're gone There's something going on There's something going on I know there's something going on I know there's something going on I know it won't be long It won't be long before you're gone There's something going on There's something going on There's something going on There's something going on |

It was late at night on the open road
Speeding like a man on the run A lifetime spent preparing for the journey He is closer now and the search is on Reading from a map in the mind Yes there's the ragged hill And there's the boat on the river And when the rain came down He heard a wild dog howl There were voices in the night (Don't do it) Voices out of sight (Don't do it) Too many men have failed before Whatever you do Don't pay the ferryman Don't even fix a price Don't pay the ferryman Until he gets you to the other side In the rolling mist Then he gets on board Now there'll be no turning back Beware that hooded old man At the rudder And then the lightning flashed And the thunder roared And people calling out his name And dancing bones that jabbered And a moaned on the water And then the ferryman said "There is trouble ahead So you must pay me now" (Don't do it) "You must pay me now" (Don't do it) And still that voice came from beyond Whatever you do Don't pay the ferryman Don't even fix a price Don't pay the ferryman Until he gets you to the other side |

I heard about her from a friend of mine
He said she lived across the county line The sweetest grape that ever grew on the vine And now that's where I'm spending all my time Her Daddy, Robert and her Mama, Ruth They had a daughter they named Bobbie Sue And now she's eighteen and she knows the truth Nobody's gonna tell her what to do Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue Can't, can't you see my love is true I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue I'll take her driving on a Friday night Straight down the highway in the clear moonlight My Chevy's humming as she holds me tight We'll find a preacher and we'll do it right Her Daddy told her that she'd have to wait Her Mama said don't make a big mistake, But we'll keep driving till we're out of state And when they find us it'll be too late. Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue Can't, can't you see my love is true I want to ma-ma-ma-ma-marry you Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bob-Bobbie Sue (Repeat) |

So wild standing there
With her hands in her hair I can't help remember Just where she touched me There's still no face Here in her place So cool she was like jazz On a summer's day Music high and sweet Then she just blew away Now she can't be that warm With the wind in her arms Valerie call on me Call on me Valerie come and see me I'm the same boy I used to be Love songs fill the night But they don't tell it all Not how lovers cry out Just like they're dying Her cries hang there in time somewhere [Repeat: x3] Someday some good wind May blow her back to me Some night I may hear her Like she used to be No it can't be that warm With the wind in her arms |

The message
In a faded envelope In a vice-like grip The passage Of a carriage in the dark On a foreign trip (again) The image Of a figure in the trees In the evening rain The knowledge Of a stranger in your midst On a speeding train (again) Night train He senses Perfume lingers in the night Smell of French cologne He watches As a hand turns down the light Leaves him all alone (again) He whispers In a dim lit empty room But it's all in vain He laughs When he reads the note he finds On the midnight train (again) Night train Journey on the night train |

Now ?
The mist across the window hides the lines But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine Electricity so fine Look and dry your eyes We ? So tired of all the darkness in our lives With no more angry words to say can come alive Get into a car and drive To the other side Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light We ? Are young but getting old before our time We'll leave the T.V. and the radio behind Don't you wonder what we'll find Steppin' out tonight? You ? Can dress in pink and blue just like a child And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile We'll be there in just a while If you follow me Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light |

Tears for souvenirs
Tears are not enough Tears for shields and spears Tears are not enough Searching for certainty When it's such an unstable world Searching for something good And I'm looking for the real McCoy Blueprint: That says that boy meets girl Picture: Girl meets boy A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl Picture in a magazine Yes you've shown your feelings Yes you've shown you're tough Said things worth believing Tears are not enough Slam that door, slap my face I don't love you anymore Dry your eyes Sink or swim You surmise you can't win We all make great mistakes Would I lie Should I lie Could I lie to you? Excuses had their uses But now they're all used up, all used up Yes you've shown your feelings Yes you've shown you're tough Said things worth believing Tears are not enough Tears for souvenirs Tears are not enough Tears for shields and spears Tears are not enough |

Oh my god
There's millions of them! I've seen a fire start in Frisco The day that the earth quaked I've seen buildings a-blazing Throwing up in flames I heard men, women and children Crying out to their God for mercy But their God didn't listen So they were burned alive They went down, down, deep underground In the great disaster I was hanging out in Berlin In the year one thousand nine hundred and thirty nine I've seen Hitler's storm troopers March right across the Maginot Line I've seen two world wars I've seen men send rockets out into space I foresee a holocaust An angel of death descending to destroy the human race Down, down, deep undergound A great disaster In the sixteenth century there was a French philosopher By the name of Nostradamus Who prophesised that in the late twentieth century An angel of death shall waste this land A holocaust the likes of which This planet had never seen Now, I ask you Do you believe this to be true? I was standing by the bedside The night that my father died He was crying out in pain To his God he said, "Have mercy, mercy!" His body was riddled with a disease Unknown to man so he expected no cure But before he died that night He was lost, insane He went down, down, deep underground A great disaster You'll go down, down, deep underground A great disaster I think they've got now! Angel of Death (Lynott, Wharton) [Lorelei version] -------------- I was hanging round in Frisco In the year of one hundred and nineteen six When I heard about the earthquake The world trembled from within I saw the fire ragin Through all that time I heard people dying They went down, down, deep underground In the great disaster I was hanging out in Berline In the year one hundred nineteen and thirty nine I've seen Hitler's storm troopers March right across the Maginot line I've seen men run away crying "Gas!" Right in front of their throats I wouldn't think that I was squeezing They went down, down, deep underground a great disaster I was standing at the bedside That night my father died I could see him crying for mercy A disease had got his body I was afraid then As I am now The Lord did not hear him He went anyhow He went down, down, deep underground It was a disaster I will go down, down, underground To meet my master Down, down |

Heat Of The Moment
by Asia I never meant to be so bad to you One thing I said that I would never do One look from you and I would fall from grace And that would wipe this smile right from my face Do you remember when we used to dance And incidence arose from circumstance One thing lead to another we were young And we would scream together songs unsung It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes And now you find yourself in 82 The disco hotspots hold no charm for you You can't concern yourself with bigger things You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings And when your looks are gone and you're alone How many nights you sit beside the phone What were the things you wanted for yourself Teenage ambition you remember well |
