I must have left my house at eight, because I always do 
My train, I'm certain, left the station just when it was due 
I must have read the morning paper going into town 
And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned 
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine 
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed 
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so 
The usual place, the usual bunch 
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must have rained 
The day before you came 

I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two 
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue 
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day 
Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away 
At five I must have left, there's no exception to the rule 
A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I finished school 
The train back home again 
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then 
Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within its usual frame 
The day before you came 

I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so 
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go 
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV 
There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see 
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten 
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then 
I must have read a while 
The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style 
It's funny, but I had no sense of living without aim 
The day before you came 

And turning out the light I must have yawned and cuddled up fo ... Read more »

They came from the hills
And they came from the valleys and the plains
They struggled in the cold
In the heat and the snow and in the rain
Came to hear him play
Play their minds away

We're all following a strange melody
We're all summoned by a tune
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon...
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon for him
And we dance beneath the moon

They came from the south
From the west and the north and from the east
They waited for the man
Like a parish is waiting for the priest
Longed to hear him play
Play their minds away

We're all following a strange melody
We're all summoned by a tune
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon...
We're following the piper
And we dance beneath the moon for him
And we dance beneath the moon

He gave them a dream
He seduced everybody in the land
The fire in his eyes

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 
(M'M)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

Ahhhaaaa...

I believe your new girl turned you down
And they say she's pushing you around
How does it feel, I guess it hurts your pride
Tell me my friend how many nights you cried

Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
Aaaaah
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown

Was it hard to step down from your throne
And to know tonight you're all alone
Oh what a shame, you really want that girl
She doesn't care, still you just dream of her

Disaster and disgrace
The king has lost his crown
Suddenly
He's clumsy like a clown
Ha-aaaahh
The world is upside down
The king has lost his crown

Super Trouper
beams are gonna blind me
but I won't feel blue
like I always do
'cause somewhere in the
crowd there's you

I was sick and tired
of everything
when I called you
last night from Glasgow
all I do is eat
and sleep and sing
wishing every show
was the last show
so imagine I was
glad to hear you're coming
suddenly I feel all right
and it's gonna be
so different when
I'm on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper
lights are gonna find me
shining like the sun
smiling, having fun
feeling like a number one
tonight the
Super Trouper
beams are gonna blind me
but I won't feel blue
like I always do
'cause somewhere in the
crowd there's you

Facing twenty thousand
of your friends
how can anyone
be so lonely
part of a success
that never ends
still I'm thinking
about you only
there are moments when I
think I'm going crazy
but it's gonna be alright
everything will be
so different when
I'm on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper
lights are gonna find me
shining like the sun
smiling, having fun
feeling like a number one
tonight the
Super Trouper
beams are gonna blind me
but I won't feel blue
like I always do
'cause somewhere in the
crowd there's you

So I'll be there
when you arrive
the sight of you
will prove to me
I'm still alive
and when you take
me in your arms
and hold me tight
I know it's gonna
mean so much tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper
lights are gonna find me
shining like the sun

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

There's a special love
Like an eagle flying with a dove

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 
SOS 
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me 
SOS 
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 seemed so far away though you were 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 

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me 
SOS 
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me 
SOS 
When you're gone 
How can I even try to go on 
When you're gone 
Though I try how can I carry on 

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me 
SOS 
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me 
SOS 
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

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

Take a chance on me
(That's all I ask of you honey)
Take a chance on me

We can go dancing, we can go walking, as long as we're together
Listen to some music, maybe just talking, get to know you better
'Cos you know I've got
So much that I wanna do, when I dream I'm alone with you
It's magic
You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can't let go

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me, let me know, gonna be around
If you've got no place to go, if you're feeling down
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test, if you let me try

Take a chance on me
(Come on, give me a break will you?)
Take a chance on me

Oh you can take your time baby, I'm in no hurry, know I'm gonna get you
You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry, I ain't gonna let you
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough to last when things are rough
It's magic
You say that I waste my time but I can't get you off my mind
No I can't let go
'Cos I love you so

If you change your mind, I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free

You think you're gonna make me sulk, you and your fancy car, ah-ha-ha
But I can tell you honey your tricks ain't gonna get you far, ah-ha-ha
They say that money's got a magic touch
But not to me, it doesn't mean that much
You won't have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
Chasing, dazing, driving me crazy
But I'll never be your girl
So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
You know it's not worth trying
So long, so long, so long

You didn't have to send me flowers like you did today, ah-ha-ha
I wouldn't keep a thing from you, I gave them all away, ah-ha-ha
The girls might fall for everything you've got
But I'm not one of them, you know I'm not
You won't have me tonight
All right, all right, all right, all right

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
Chasing, dazing, driving me crazy
But I'll never be your girl
So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
You know it's not worth trying
So long, so long, so long

So long, see you honey
You can't buy me with your money
You know it's not worth trying
So long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long

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
Aa-ahhh
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
