No more champagne And the fireworks are through Here we are, me and you Feeling lost and feeling blue It's the end of the party And the morning seems so grey So unlike yesterday Now's the time for us to say...
Happy new year Happy new year May we all have a vision now and then Of a world where every neighbour is a friend Happy new year Happy new year May we all have our hopes, our will to try If we don't we might as well lay down and die You and I
Sometimes I see How the brave new world arrives And I see how it thrives In the ashes of our lives Oh yes, man is a fool And he thinks he'll be okay Dragging on, feet of clay Never knowing he's astray Keeps on going anyway...
Happy new year Happy new year May we all have a vision now and then Of a world where every neighbour is a friend Happy new year Happy new year May we all have our hopes, our will to try If we don't we might as well lay down and die You and I
Seems to me now That the dreams we had before Are all dead, nothing more Than confetti on the floor It's the end of a decade In another ten years time Who can say what we'll find What lies waiting down the line In the end of eighty-nine...
Happy new year Happy new year May we all have a vision now and then Of a world where every neighbour is a friend Happy new year Happy new year May we all have our hopes, our will to try If we don't we might as well lay down and die You and I
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 gloom 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 the 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 a 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 the 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 the shadows away Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
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 can 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 we never thought that we could lose there's no regret If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando
Now we're old and grey, Fernando Since many years I haven't see 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 we 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 we 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 If I had to do the same again, I would my friend, Fernando...
You hate, you scream, you swear And still you never reach him You curse, you try to scare But you can never teach him It's a dead end street They tie your hands and tie your feet And the street is narrow A nowhere lane A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine Elaine, Elaine, Elaine You know they're gonna get you You try to break away But they will never let you It's a dead end street They tie your hands and tie your feet And the street is narrow A nowhere lane A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine You're like a goldfish in a bowl Elaine, Elaine, Elaine They have your mind, they'll take your soul You come, you stay, you go It really doesn't matter You've done it all before By now they'll know the pattern It's a dead end street They tie your hands and tie your feet And the street is narrow A nowhere lane A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine You're like a goldfish in a bowl Elaine, Elaine, Elaine They have your mind, they'll take your soul Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you It's a dead end street They tie your hands and tie your feet And the street is narrow A nowhere lane A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine You're like a goldfish in a bowl Elaine, Elaine, Elaine They have your mind, they'll take your soul Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you
They came flyin' from faraway 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
Fly'in 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 dreamin' or is it all real is it true I'm an eagle
We're not the stars of a Hollywood movie So what's the use to pretend I'm not so charming and you're not so groovy You've gotta face it my friend
Chorus Dream world You've been living in a dream world Trust me You just can't escape from reality Boy meets girl Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, here you are, we're gonna make it together And we're there, it's so far, so it can only get better
When you reach out And you say to me "How I love you girl" When I hold you Baby can't you see It's a real dream world
You had your hopes and your high expectations Somehow it doesn't seem right I'm getting fed up with your accusations I'm not your angel in white
Chorus Dream world You've been living in a dream world Trust me You just can't escape from reality Boy meets girl Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, here you are, we're gonna make it together And we're there, it's so far, so it can only get better
When you reach out And you say to me "How I love you girl" When I hold you Baby can't you see It's a real dream world
Dream world You've been living in a dream world Trust me You just can't escape from reality Boy meets girl Doesn't mean they're in a dream world
Here I am, here you are, we're gonna make it together And we're there, it's so far, so it can only get better
You're so hot, teasing me So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you That's something I couldn't do There's that look in your eyes I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild Ah, but girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey If you think it's funny Does your mother know that you're out And I can chat with you baby Flirt a little maybe Does your mother know that you're out
Take it easy Better slow down girl That's no way to go Does your mother know Take it easy Try to cool it girl Take it nice and slow Does your mother know
I can see what you want But you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun So maybe I'm not the one Now you're so cute, I like your style And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile But girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey If you think it's funny Does your mother know that you're out And I can chat with you baby Flirt a little maybe Does your mother know that you're out
Take it easy Better slow down girl That's no way to go Does your mother know Take it easy Try to cool it girl Take it nice and slow Does your mother know
Well I can dance with you honey If you think it's funny Does your mother know that you're out And I can chat with you baby Flirt a little maybe Does your mother know that you're out
Well I can dance with you honey If you think it's funny Does your mother know that you're out And I can chat with you baby Flirt a little maybe Does your mother know that you're out.....
Changing, moving, in a circle I can see your face in all of my dreams Smiling, laughing, from the shadows When I hear your voice I know what it means I know it doesn't matter just how hard I try You're all the reason for my life Disillusion, disillusion's all you left for me
How can I forget you when my world is breaking down You're all I had, you're all I want Disillusion, disillusions now, that's all I have
Wishing, hoping, chasing shadows Did I see your face somewhere in the crowd Thinking, wondering, what you're doing I can't stop myself from crying out loud They say my wound will heal and only leave a scar But then, they never shared our love Disillusion, disillusion's all you left for me
How can I forget you when my world is breaking down You're all I had, you're all I want Disillusion, disillusions now, that's all I have Disillusion, disillusions now, that's all I have
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen
Friday night and the lights are low Looking out for the place to go Where they play the right music, getting in the swing You come in to look for a King Anybody could be that guy Night is young and the music's high With a bit of rock music, everything is fine You're in the mood for a dance And when you get the chance...
You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen
You're a teaser, you turn 'em on Leave them burning and then you're gone Looking out for another, anyone will do You're in the mood for a dance And when you get the chance...
You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourines You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen
Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong You're enchained by your own sorrow In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow How I hate to see you like this There is no way you can deny it I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet
Chiquitita, tell me the truth I'm a shoulder you can cry on Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on You were always sure of yourself Now I see you've broken a feather I hope we can patch it up together
Chiquitita, you and I know How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end You will have no time for grieving Chiquitita, you and I cry But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you Let me hear you sing once more like you did before Sing a new song, Chiquitita Try once more like you did before Sing a new song, Chiquitita
So the walls came tumbling down And your love's a blown out candle All is gone and it seems too hard to handle Chiquitita, tell me the truth There is no way you can deny it I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet
Chiquitita, you and I know How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end You will have no time for grieving Chiquitita, you and I cry But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you Let me hear you sing once more like you did before Sing a new song, Chiquitita Try once more like you did before Sing a new song, Chiquitita Try once more like you did before Sing a new song, Chiquitita

Åh, vilka tider!! Paradiset hägrar Du får kalla det fantasier Men nog är det en dröm man minns
Drömde en dröm, jag minns och jag känner Vatten blev vin ovh fiender vänner Mmm, det var härlight att leva Allting var fritt så vem skulle sakna Någonting då? Nej, paradis, nakna Var vi som Adam och Eva
Åh, vilka tider! Underbara dagar Roar sig kungligt, mår som en prins Njuter allt gott som finns Åh, vilka tider! Paradiset hägrar Du får kalla det fantasier Men nog är det en dröm man minns
Ingen var sur och ingen var dyster Var och en var en bror och en syster Åh, vad jag dröde den stunden! Skatan, han gol och göken, han skratta' Ingenting var som det är, kan du fatta? Vi var i paradislunden
Åh, vilka tider! Underbara dagar Roar sig kungligt, mår som en prins Njuter allt gott som finns Åh, vilka tider! Paradiset hägrar Du får kalla det fantasier Men nog är det en dröm

Sammy says he lost his call On the day Cousteau had died The ocean was a tub of sharks With Jacques Yves as a guide
Sammy says the water's safe That man should not have left the seas Called the Human Bathyscaphe He's King of Expertise
So if someone wants to know And asks you where I am You say you saw me go For a swim with Sam
Sam here says they call him "nice" And that it makes him really sick That his "nice" is like "polite" And silence does the trick
Sam here says he'd like to go Somewhere far away from here To a sea that no one knows To completely disappear
So if someone wants to know And asks you where I am You say you saw me go For a swim with Sam
Yeah if someone wants to know And asks you where I am You say you saw me go For a swim with Sam
[Instrumental]
So if someone wants to know And asks you where I am You say you saw me go For a swim with Sam
Yeah if someone wants to know And asks you where I am You say you saw me go For a swim with Sam
For a swim with Sam...
Don't try to talk me out of this Not while I'm here in Carla's seat "The sea has many drops of water But the salt won't let you taste the sweet"
Don't try to talk me out of this Not while I'm here in Carla's seat "The sea has many drops of water But the salt won't let you taste the sweet"
Don't try to talk me out of this (Go for a swim with Sam) Not while I'm here in Carla's seat (Go for a swim with Sam) Don't try to talk me out of this (Go for a swim with Sam) Not while I'm here in Carla's seat
the Benz fans are turned up high land pans before your eyes flashback to father's suntanned thighs hopped on in driver's seat up front with dangling feet chest belt his muscled arm around
and the sun goes down
the lake wakes a hard blue sky waves break and Sam says 'hi' flashback to Super Snorkel Spy young blonde with fishing net strong, fond his back half wet splash track and underwater sound
and the sun goes down
please stop the thinking and the torture you can really only take so much things do look better in the morning without any grudge
the twins bathe at 10 a.m. grins taped on Sony cam flashback to mother's glaring lamp dives, swift into the roar wives drift shift, save on shore jam-packed the night that Natty drowns
and the sun goes down
please stop the thinking and the torture you can really only take so much things do look better in the morning without any grudge
would you stop this futile thinking would you stop these figments now
damn, this is bad - this is so bad I get out of the crash thinking no one survived big eyes from the backseat to my surprise I see all three alive
you're losing blood in the grass there on the side of the road in your stripe summer dress the boy runs off to see you I pick him up, but he must've seen some of your legs
I swear dear, you'll be alright now don't you go out on me here I swear I hear sirens come close that means help is near
the autobahn is reflecting rotting fruit in at least 30 something degrees nothing but chaos all these questions, ignorance
FUCK THE POLICE!
I swear dear, you'll be alright now don't you go out on me here I swear I hear sirens come close that means help is near
now you listen to me I will bring you back home will you listen to me I will bring you back home
home
back from the car-dump I sit down with the boy on the edge of the bed in a hotel room near Munich remembering what I said
well, it's been a few days now, so how have you been? not that I must know what state you're in
I should care less
well, I just bawled my eyes out and feel really relieved not that I threw up be enough to fully retrieve
I'm still a mess
but what really helps a lot is the knowledge that it's nothing but the time it takes you gave me meals for thought and Robin a laughing break how quickly will he re-enter the lists? don't correct me if I'm wrong I'm sure that grudge exists, especially his and that mine will make a brilliant song
lately I have not been that close with time the weekends seem the worst ever since they're all mine
and it's hard to get through
well, congratulations - you entered the Torture Top 3 and by the way already not happy anniversary
here's to you and your cool here's to me and my catch-22
but what really helps a lot is the knowledge that it's nothing but the time it takes it is funny - not at all half as funny as to call me Robin by mistake don't correct me if I'm wrong I'm sure that grudge exists (especially his�) and that mine will make a brilliant song
the copper shades you wore were very big and green and I was only feather-light above the engine-roar in the smell of gasoline you'd make sure I'd hold on tight
and there we'd go with no direction anywhere the wind would blow and I would ask you all these questions while your pride of me would show
then in an act of love you'd pull me close and check my orange-colored water wings you'd turn the engine off and somewhere from the back we'd both jump in for a swim
and there we'd go with no direction anywhere the wind would blow and I would ask you all these questions while your pride of me would show
and safe in your Calypso with the world of wise Cousteau below and ice cream castles overhead now how was I to know how was I to know
a towel round my chest your copper shades back on we would speed up fast and dry up by the sun
