Per & Marie:
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?
Marie:
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

My girl came home to me
Just the other day acting okay
I was reading alone
In my favourite room the TV was on

May I be excused
For not telling the truth

Cause she's gone
She said she's better off on her own
She turned her head
Much better off on her own

My girl knocked on the door
To the place I usually refer to as home
I died surely some tied
Should have dimmed my eyes

Right at the front door I recognised the perfume
The scent was perfect in the dusk by the moon
There must be many ways to ask her to my room
Why didn’t I dare?

Well, every hour I try to get somethin’ done
Out on the weekend when I’m just havin’ some fun

What am I gonna do when I get a little excited a little in vain? Tell me,
What am I gonna say when I find the center of the heart is the suburb to the brain?
You wear them so well, those innocent eyes
You're putting on a wonderful disguise.
I want you so bad, I'm pushing my luck
It feels like beeing hit by a truck.
This is no place special, don't know why I came

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

Didn't I tell you everything is possible in this deja vu?
Try the river boat, the carousel, feed the pigeons, Bar-B-Q.
Look at all the people, happy faces all around.
Smiling, throwing kisses, busy making lazy sounds

It's a bright June afternoon, it never gets dark.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun.
Get your green, green tambourine, let's play in the park.
Wah-wah! Here comes the sun

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 skyTake 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

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

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 you blue-eyed voice, like Tiny Tim shines thru.

How do you do!

Well, here we are crackin' jokes in the corner of our mouths

Can't we leave the world outside
Just for a while? Just for a while?
Spend some time, you and I
Under this bright glorious sky
It's been so long since I first saw you
But I still love that smile in your eyes

Yes it's true, right from the start
I believed in the church of your heart
Yes it's you, that make me part of
And I believe in the church of your heart

She's the top, she's got the world on a string.
She makes me boogie, makes me do anything
yea yea. -
Hey now, touch the sky,
you've got a certain kind of look in your eyes.
Well, she's a miracle,
she's all that I need like the water and the air that I breathe
yea yea. -
Hey now, reach the sky,
there's a certain kind of look in your smile.
And I know what love can do.

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

She's the heart of the funfair
She's got me whistling her private tune

And it all begins where it ends

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

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

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.

If there was a night to say
Something to cherish on a rainy day
If I close my eyes I go blind
I'm the middle of a rush, rush

Makin' love to you
Is all I ever wanted to do

Am I leaving world behind?
I laugh at all the things I've done for you
If there was a dream to say
I'm the middle of a rush, rush

Makin' love to you
Is all I ever wanted to do

Makin' love
Makin' love to you

Everything you do you do so right
The clothes you buy are awfully nice
You wear your image bullet-proof
Your stocks are always thru the roof

You make me feel so stupid
Make me feel stupid

And you grew up, made in the sun
They all loved you from Day 1
You always remembered everyone's name
You always won the guessin' games, ooh yeah

You made me feel so stupid
Made me feel stupid

Well, I like you, I couldn't think of anything but you
For a week I was in love with your hairdo
I couldn't chew those smart things I used to
I knew I was way over the moon
When I met you, when I met you, I didn't know what to do.
When I saw you, when I saw you you said:

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I'm living in a box but I'm out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

She had those magic eyes
You could see from miles aroud
She wore her summer dresses bright
Quite like the sky

She always came in colours
All smiles in daffodils
She let her hair down in the breez

But every little thing has changed today
Little Miss Sorrow
Every little thing turned pale and faded
Little Miss Sorrow
The sunlight doesn't show
All the colours go out through the window
