Re: ABBA

Thank You For The Music

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
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!

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

The Name Of The Game

I''ve seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, 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 care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know..

The name of the game

I have no friends, no-one to see
And I am never invited
Now I am here, talking to you
No wonder I get excited

Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know..

What''s the name of the game?
(Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?
(Got a feeling you give me no 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 care for you?
Could 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?
(Got a feeling you give me no 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

The Visitors

I hear the door-bell 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 doorknob
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 Winner Takes It All

I don''t wanna talk
About the 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 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...

Tropical Loveland

Come to my loveland, wander along
Beautiful gardens full of flowers and songs
Come to the sunshine, beaches and sand
Here''s the two bluebirds, won''t you come to my land

The grass is mellow and the sky is blue
My paradise is waiting here for you

Oooh, it''s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
Life can be funny
Happy and sunny
Oooh, in my tropical loveland

Come to my loveland, wander with me
Lie with me darling in the shade of a tree
Over the rainbow, under the moon
That''s where my land is, won''t you come to me soon?

Just take my hand, I''ll show you everything
The secrets that my paradise can bring

Oooh, it''s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
Life can be funny
Happy and sunny
Oooh, in my tropical loveland

Oooh, it''s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
(I wanna share it with you)
Oooh, it''s a tropical loveland
(It''s a tropical loveland)
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
Oooh, it''s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you

Under Attack

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 cos 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 would 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 cos I''m falling apart
Under attack, I''m taking cover
He saw my track, my chasing lover
Thinking nothing''s gonna stop him now
Should I want to, I''m not sure, I won''t know how
Under attack, I''m being taken
About to crack, defences breaking
Won''t somebody see and save a heart
Come and rescue me now cos 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

Voulez-Vous

People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air
Giving out a spark

Waterloo

My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - Couldn''t escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

My, my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only hope is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - Couldn''t escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

So how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose -

Waterloo - Couldn''t escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

What About Livingstone

Went to buy me a paper at the local news-stand
And then I heard them laugh and say
Look, they''re gonna go flying way up to the moon now
Hey, what''s it good for anyway?
So I said
Fellas, like to ask you a thing if I may

What about Livingstone?
What about all those men?
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
Tell me, wasn''t it worth the while
Travelling up the Nile
Putting themselves on test
Didn''t that help the rest?
Wasn''t it worth it then?
What about Livingstone?

And all of those fellas at the local news-stand
Didn''t know what to answer or what to say
So I told them about him, that he was just like
One of those spacemen in his way
And if you laugh at them
Then there''s only a thing I can say

What about Livingstone?
What about all those men?
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
Tell me, wasn''t it worth the while
Travelling up the Nile
Putting themselves on test
Didn''t that help the rest?
Wasn''t it worth it then?

What about Livingstone?
(Didn''t he do it, well didn''t he?)
What about all those men?
(Didn''t he do it, well didn''t he?)
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
Tell me, wasn''t it worth the while
(Didn''t he do it, well didn''t he?)
Travelling up the Nile
(Didn''t he do it, well didn''t he?)
Putting themselves on test
Didn''t that help the rest?
(Didn''t he do it, well didn''t he?)
Wasn''t it worth it then?
What about Livingstone?
(Didn''t he do it, well didn''t he?)

When I Kissed The Teacher

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 Ôcos he was taken by surprise
When I kissed the teacher
CouldnÕt 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 couldnÕt 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)

Why Did It Have To Be Me

When you were lonely, you needed a man
Someone to lean on, well I understand
It''s only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Nights can be empty, nights can be cold
So you were looking for someone to hold
That''s only natural
But why did it have to be me?

I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn''t help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It''s better to forget me

Men are toys in the game that you play
When you get tired, you throw them away
That''s only natural
But why did it have to be me?
Falling in love with a woman like you
Happens so quickly, there''s nothing to do
It''s only natural
But why did it have to be me?

I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn''t help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It''s better to forget me
