One Wish

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

If you had one wish what would it be?
If you had one wish would it be about me?
Just one wish, could it be about me?

You might make a wish for money or peace
Yea, you'd make a wish for cosmic relief
Shade by the trees, green summer leaves

Well, I was thinkin' that he-he-hey
Maybe one day a wish of you and me
Yea, he-he-hey
Maybe one day a wish of you and me

Please don't tell me what I don't need to know
Please don't offer what I shouldn't know
I don't want to know what doesn't show

If you had one wish
What would it be?
If you had one wish
Would it be about me?
Just one wish
Could it be about me?

Cos I was thinkin' that he-he-hey
Maybe one day a wish of you and me
Yea, he-he-hey
Maybe one day a wish of you and me

Wavin' high down below
Shine your light down here below

The Look

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

1-2-3-4
Walking like a man,
Hitting like a hammer,
She's a juvenile scam.
Never was a quitter,
Tasty like a raindrop,
She's got the look.

Heavenly bound
Cause heaven's got a number
When she's spinning me around,
Kissing is a colour.
Her loving is a wild dog,
She's got the look.

She's got the look.
She's got the look.
What in the world can make a brown-eyed girl turn blue.
When everything I'll ever do I'll do for you
And I go: la la la la la she's got the look.

Fire in the ice
Naked to the t-bone
Is a lover's disguise.
Banging on the head drum,
Shaking like a mad bull,
She's got the look.

Swaying to the band,
Moving like a hammer
She's a miracle man.
Loving is the ocean,
Kissing is the wet sand,
She's got the look.

And she goes: na na na na na na na na.

Dressed For Success

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Tried to make it little by little,
Tried to make it bit by bit on my own.
Quit the job, the grey believers,
Another town where I get close to the bone.

Whatcha gonna tell your brother? - oh oh oh
Whatcha gonna tell your father? - I don't know!
Whatcha gonna tell your mother? - Let me go...

I'm gonna get dressed for success
Shaping me up for the big time, baby.
Get dressed for success
Shaping it up for your love yea yea yea.

I'm not afraid, a trembling flower,
I'll feed your heart and blow the dust from your eyes
And in the dark things happen faster.
I love the way you sway your hips next to mine.

Whatcha gonna tell your brother? - oh oh oh...

I'm gonna get dressed for success,
Hitting a spot for the big time, baby.
Get dressed for success
Shaping it up for your love.
Look sharp!

Listen To Your Heart

Музыка: Per Gessle & Mats M.P. Persson
Слова: Per Gessle

I know there's something in the wake of your smile.
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.
You've built a love but that love falls apart.
Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart when he's calling for you.
Listen to your heart there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where you're going and I don't know why,
But listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye.

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.
They're swept away and nothing is what it seems,
The feeling of belonging to your dreams.

And there are voices that want to be heard.
So much to mention but you can't find the words.
The scent of magic, the beauty that's been
When love was wilder than the wind.

Dangerous

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

You pack your bag. You take control.
You're moving into my heart and into my soul.
Get out of my way! Get out of my sight!
I won't be walking on thin ice to get through the night.

Hey, where's your work? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name...

Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous.
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat.
You know she's a little bit dangerous.

You turn around, so hot and dry.
You're hiding under a halo, your mouth is alive.
Get out of my way! Get out of my sight!
I'm not attracted to go-go deeper tonight.

Hey, what's your word? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name...
Hold on tight...
She's armed and she's extremely dangerous...

It Must Have Been Love

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Lay a whisper on my pillow,
Leave the winter on the ground.
I wake up lonely, there's air of silence
In the bedroom and all around.
Touch me now, I close my eyes and dream away.

It must have been love but it's over now.
It must have been good but I lost it somehow.
It must have been love but it's over now.
From the moment we touched 'til the time had run out.

Make-believing we're together,
That I'm sheltered by your heart.
But in and outside I've turned to water
Like a teardrop in your palm.
And it's a hard winter's day, I dream away.

It must have been love but it's over now,
It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without.
It must have been love but it's over now,
It's where the water flows,
It's where the wind blows.

Joyride

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

I hit the road out of nowhere,
I had to jump in my car
And be a rider in a love game,
Following the stars.

Don't need no book of wisdom,
I get no money talk at all.

She has a train going downtown,
She's got a club on the moon
And she's telling all her secrets
In a wonderful balloon.

Oh she's the heart of the funfair,
She's got me whistling her private tune.
And it all begins where it ends
And she's all mine, my magic friend.

She says: Hello, you fool, I love you.
C'mon join the joyride. Join the joyride.

She's a flower, I can paint her.
She's a child of the sun.
We're a part of this together,
Could never turn around and run.

Don't need no fortune teller
To know where my lucky love belongs, oh no.
Cos it all begins again when it ends
And we're all magic friends.

She says: Hello, you fool, I love you.
C'mon join the joyride. Join the joyride.
Be a joyrider.

I take you on a skyride,
A feeling like you're spellbound.
The sunshine is a lady,
Who ROX you like a baby.

Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave)

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

In a time where the sun descends alone,
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart that's made of stone.

I will try, I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind,
To see the world through different eyes.

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go.
Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower.

Tell me why? When I scream there's no reply,
When I reach out there's nothing to find,
When I sleep I break down and cry.

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go.
Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower.

Fading like a rose,
Fading like a rose,
Beaten by the storm,
Talking to myself,
Getting washed by the rain,
It's such a cold cold town.

Spending My Time

Музыка: Per Gessle & Mats M.P. Persson
Слова: Per Gessle

What's the time? Seems it's already morning.
I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue.
The TV's on but the only thing showing
Is a picture of you.

Oh I get up and make myself some coffee.
I try to read a bit but the story's too thin.
I thank the Lord above that you're not here to see me
In this shape I'm in.

Spending my time, watching the days go by.
Feeling so small, I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you think of me too.
I'm spending my time.

I try to call but I don't know what to tell you.
I leave a kiss on your answering machine.
Oh help me please, is there someone who can make me
Wake up from this dream?

Spending my time, watching the days go by.
Feeling so small, I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you are missing me too.
I'm spending my time, watching the sun go down.
I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a clown,"
A prayer gone blind. I'm spending my time.

My friends keep telling me: Hey, life will go on,
Time will make sure I'll get over you.
This silly game of love - you play, you win only to lose.

I'm spending my time, my time.
Bed's too big without you, honey.

How Do You Do!

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

I see you comb your hair and gimme that grin.
It's making me spin now, spinnin' within.
Before I melt like snow, I say Hello - How do you do!

I love the way you undress now. Baby begin.
Do your caress, honey, my heart's in a mess.
I love your blue-eyed voice, like Tiny Tim shines thru.
How do you do!

Well, here we are crackin' jokes in the corner of our mouths
And I feel like I'm laughing in a dream.
If I was young I could wait outside your school
Cos your face is like the cover of a magazine.

How do you do, do you do, the things that you do.
No one I know could ever keep up with you.
How do you do! Did it ever make sense to you to say Bye Bye Bye?

I see you in that chair with perfect skin.
Well, how have you been, baby, livin' in sin?
Hey, I gotta know, did you say Hello - How do you do?

Well, here we are spending time in the louder part of town
And it feels like everything's surreal.
When I get old I will wait outside your house
Cos your hands have got the power meant to heal.

How do you do...

Almost Unreal

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Babe, come in from the cold and put that coat to rest.
Step inside, take a deep breath, and do what you do best.
Yes, kick off them shoes and leave those city streets.
I do believe love came our way,
And fate did arrange for us to meet.

I love when you do that hocus pocus to me.
The way that you touch, you've got the power to heal.
You give me that look, it's almost unreal. It's almost unreal.

Hey, we can't stop the rain, let's find a place by the fire.
Sometimes I feel, strange as it seems,
You've been in my dreams all my life.

I love when you do that hocus pocus to me...

It's a crazy world out there.
Let's hope our prayers are in good hands tonight.

Sleeping In My Car

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

I'll tell you what I've done
I'll tell you what I'll do
Been driving all nite just to get close to you
Baby Babe - I'm moving so fast
You'd better come on.

The moon is alright
The freeway's heading south
My heart is going Boom!
There's a strange taste in my mouth
Baby Babe - I'm moving real fast
So try to hold on
Try to hold on!

Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making up.

So come out tonight
I'll take you for a ride
This steamy ol' wagon
The radio is getting wild
Baby Babe - we're moving so fast
I try to hang on
Try to hang on!

Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making love, oh yea!

Sleeping in my car - I will possess you
Sleeping in my car - certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car making up.

The night is so pretty and so young
The night is so pretty and so young
So very young...

Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making love to you.

Sleeping in my car - I will possess you
Sleeping in my car - certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car making up.

I will undress you
I will undress you.
The night is so pretty and so young.

Crash! Boom! Bang!

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

My Papa told me to stay out of trouble
"When you've found your man, make sure he's for real!"
I've learned that nothing really lasts forever
I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal
They won't heal.

Cos every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same.

I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere
I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew.
My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow
But I always did, and Lord, I still do
I'm still breaking the rules
I kick it up
I kick it down.

Cos every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's my real middle-name
It has always been the same
That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same.

I still feel the heat
Slowly fallin' from the sky
And the taste of the kissing
Shattered by rain
Comin' tumblin' from behind
And the wild holy war.
I kick it up
I kick it down

And every time I seem to fall in love
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floor
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same
That's my real middle-name
It has always been the same.
Oh Yea Oh Yea Oh Yea Uh-huh
Been the same, been the same
It has always been the same.

Run To You

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Baby, sometimes I feel like dying
Driving while I'm closing my eyes
Moving in and out of hiding
Trying to catch some truth in my life
Watching your stars and your moonlight
Come tumbling down from the sky
Take it now.

I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna come to you
I wanna find you
In everything that I do
I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna count on you
I'm gonna follow
Baby, what else can I do?

Sunday morning, my town is sleeping
Lying all alone in my bed
There's not a sound, I can't help but listening
Wishing I was somewhere else instead
But sometimes they're too hard to handle
These voices inside my head
Listen now.

I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna come to you
I wanna find you
In everything that I do
I'm gonna run to you
I'm gonna count on you
I'm gonna follow
Baby, what else can I do?

Take a walk inside my dream: A church, a lonely road
All the people come and go and come and go.
Do it now!

Wish I Could Fly

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Halfway through the night
I wake up in a dream
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream

I dreamed I could fly out in the blue
Over this town, following you
Over the trees, subways and cars
I'd try to find out who you really are

In the middle of the night
Cool sweatin' in my bed
Got the windows open wide
Thinkin' about all the things you said

I wish I could fly out in the blue
Over this town following you
I'd fly over rooftops, the great boulevards
To try to find out who you really are
Who you really are

I wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now

I wish I could fly around and around
Over this town, the dirt on the ground
I'd follow your course of doors left ajar
To try to find out who you really are.

Stars

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

You keep on walkin' on the other side
Other side other side
You keep on walkin' on the other side
Other side other side

Wherever you go I'm going with you
Shouldn't you know I'm bound to follow
Whatever you say whatever you do
I give you a clue I'm gonna follow

And the stars will show where the waters flow
Where the gardens grow, that's where I'll meet you

Why don't you let me let me come along
Na na na na na na
Why don't you open make me come along
Na na na na na na

Wherever you go I'm going for you
Oh I was truly born to follow
Like fire and wood and paper and glue
Only a few were born to follow

And the stars will show where the waters flow,
Where the gardens grow, that's where I'll meet you
And the sun will glow, melting all the snow
Knowing all I know that's where I'll meet you

Stars will show where the waters flow,
Where the gardens grow, that's where I'll meet you
And the sun will glow, melting all the snow
Knowing all I know that's where I'll meet you

And the stars will show, every breeze will blow
Knowing all I know that's where I'll meet you

The Centre Of The Heart

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited, a little in pain
Tell me what am I gonna say when I find
The centre of my heart is a suburb to the brain!!

You wear them so well those innocent eyes
You're puttin' on a wonderful disguise
I want you so bad. I'm pushing my luck
It feels like being hit by a truck
This is no place special. Don't know why I came
If someone has a minute won't you explain

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited a little in pain
Tell me what am I gonna say when I find
The centre of my heart is a suburb to the brain
Singing na na na na na na!

Being with you, dealing with fire
Oh won't you come around (come out) come out (today) and play
(I want you so bad) Answer my calls
Let's spend the night within these walls
This is no place special. Nothing for the sane
If someone's got minute, do please explain.

Milk And Toast And Honey

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Milk and toast and honey make it sunny on a rainy Saturday he-he-hey
Milk and toast, some coffee take the stuffiness
Out of days you hate, you really hate
Slow morning news pass me by
I try not to analyse but didn't he blow my mind this time
Didn't he blow my mind?

(Here he comes) To bring a little lovin', honey
To take away the hurt inside is everything that matters to me
Is everything I want in life

Milk and toast and honey.
Ain't it funny how things sometimes look so clear and feel so near
The dreams I dream, my favorite wishful thinkin'
Oh he's bookmarked everywhere, everywhere
True love might fall from the sky
You never know what to find, but didn't he blow my mind this time
Didn't he blow my mind?

(Here he comes) To bring a little lovin' honey
To take away the pain inside is everything that matters to me
Is everything I want from life
(Here he comes) Oh lay a little lovin' honey
To feel you're gettin' close to me is everything that matters to me
Is everywhere I want to be.

A Thing About You

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

I pick up the phone I'm dialin' your number
While I pray you're at home. At home and alone
Cos I can't function on my own
And I'll never stop believin'

The reapin' is done, you are the one
The radio is on but the sound is all gone
And I want to walk out in the sun
But lately that's been very hard to do

I've got a thing about you
And I don't really know what to do
Cos I've got a thing about you, hey you

I pick up the phone I'm dialin' that number
And my heart like a stone waits for the tone
"- Oh I can't make it on my own
And I'll never stop believin'"

I know what is right and this is so wrong
Alone in my bed, better off on my own
The TV is on but the colours are gone
And lately you've been paintin' my world blue

I've got a thing about you
And I don't really care what you do
I've got a thing about you, yea you

Lately you've been paintin' my world blue
I've got a thing about you
And I don't really know what to do
I've got a thing about you
Hopin' this story cuts through
Yea, I've got a thing about you
A thing about you.

Reveal

Музыка: Per Gessle
Слова: Per Gessle

Everything here close to me
Is just the way I want it to be
It's all about faith, it's all about trust
All about luck and all about lust
My wish comes true, my wish comes true

I don't mind showing for you
I reveal everything for you
Just about anything

Could have been night, could have been day
Floating in space I was drifting away
You're making me warm, you're making me high
I feel like laughing where I used to cry
My wish comes true, my dream comes true

I don't mind showing for you
I reveal everything for you
Just about anything.
