Carnival lyrics

I will never know
cause you will never show
come on and love me now
come on and love me now

Carnival came by my town today
bright lights from giant wheels
fall on the alleyways
and I'm here
by my door
waiting for you

I will never know
cause you will never show
come on and love me now
come on and love me now

I here sounds of lovers
barrel organs, mothers
I would like to take you
down there

Gordon's Gardenparty lyrics

You in brown checked suit
said my dress was very cute
I found you found me
dancing in this melody
Heavenly!

We were swinging on so nice
bubbly pink champagne on ice
Nancy, Jacques Closeau and Claire
I believe they all were there
Having the time of their lives

You had Rose's lime
mixed with vodka, I had wine
People having fun
cocktails in the evening sun
Give me one!

We were swinging on so nice

Daddy's Car lyrics

We took off that sunny day
packed our things and went away
me and friends in daddy's car
to find out how summers are
found a card to send from wherever we went

From Luxembourg to Rome
from Berlin to the moon
from Paris to Lausanne
from Athens to the sun
our car became a spacecraft
flashing through the world
crashed down in Amsterdam

We'll take off some rainy day
pack our things and go away

Pikebubbles lyrics

My dad, the best dad that I've had
don't care about nothing
he's not even working
he's not only my dad
the best friend that I've had
don't think he's a mad dad

His dad, is sleeping with boots on
it makes me start wonder
cause there is no thunder
according to my dad
don't think he's a mad dad
it's only some tigers he has got in our shed

My dad, the best dad that I've had
lies under the table

Tomorrow lyrics

Someone's thinking of her
a fifteen hour trip away
life is so much slower
than a charter trip delay

Tomorrow, she won't feel half of this
Tomorrow morning is a sugar kiss
Tomorrow, heavenly no sorrow
she will lose gravity

Tomorrow...

Someone's thinking of the her
trough the hazy scenery
life is blue as water
when you're missing somebody

Tomorrow, she won't feel half of this

Beautiful One lyrics

Smooth dreams in leaves
raised in teacup
Sticked down to sleep
like an envelope
filled up with words for you

Wrapped up in curls
sweet as the summer
cheek soft as a fur
grace in a slumber
beautiful wonderboy

Soft beams from an early sun
on my truly beautiful one
shimmer from a Saturday sun
on my truly beautiful one

rise in the morning
shine 'till the dawning

Stretched out to breathe

Travelling With Charley lyrics

Once he gets a mystic call
jump into his motorcar
Once we're rolling down the road
he's forgotten where to go

Travelling with Charley
my detective darling

My agent hasn't solved a case
My agent never finds a trace
but Charley has always style
Charley is always nice

poor Charley
He would be nothing without me

Once I clear his memory
but he'll crash into a tree
Once we're getting to the place

Fine lyrics

Upon a roof below the moon
nearby a park-bench in the sun
upon the stairway to your room
Why won't you wrap your life around
those certain words I just found

I wear your golden ring inside
suits me very fine
I wear your golden heart in mine
suits me very fine

A backseat sofa in the dark
upon a viewpoint in our town
nearby a fountain in a park
Why won't you wrap your life around

Sunday Circus Song lyrics

he's lonely
sitting by the mirror
awakened by the horses
in circles
running in the circus

his red nose
looking damaged in the mirror
cause no one has replaced it
he's dressed now
ready to make fun of...

he loves sundays
and every place
where his circus stays

he's lonely
he's sitting by the mirror
still broken
undressed now
ready for a new town

he loves sundays
and every place

Hey! Get Out Of My Way lyrics

Listen baby
thoughts has crossed my mind
and it's clear now
you are not my kind
oh! I've tried boy
better ways to say
what I feel now
it seems you plan to stay
but I won't waste a day
so I say...

hey! get out of my way
hey! hey! hey!
you've always been in my way

Hear now honey
I'll be good to you
if you stay gone
far out of my view
I'm sick and tired
of your dramatic ways
and when I think of

Closing Time lyrics

it's closing time, and a well-known fact
is that life is very short
it's closing time says the band
and it seems that life is very short

the baker in town was fat as a cow
at the end of the day he ate all remains
the baker in town was murdered one day
an order was left of 200 pies
we've all got some vice
after closing time

so this is it!
the carnival is now heading for a new town

After All... lyrics

after all you were perfectly right
but I'm scaring close to insanity
and on a night like this
nothing stays the same
nothing looks the same

after all you were perfectly right
our relation just split me in two
and on a night like this
pieces fall apart
visions fall apart

after all you were perfectly right
I have never been happy before
and on a night like this

Daddy's Car lyrics

We took off that sunny day
packed our things and went away
me and friends in daddy's car
to find out how summers are
found a card to send from wherever we went
From Luxembourg to Rome
from Berlin to the moon
from Paris to Lausanne
from Athens to the sun
our car became a spacecraft
flashing through the world
crashed down in Amsterdam
We'll take off some rainy day

Gordon's Gardenparty lyrics

You in brown checked suit
Said my dress was very cute
I found you found me
Dancing in this melody
Heavenly!

We were swinging on so nice
Bubbly pink champagne on ice
Nancy, Jacques Closeau and Claire
I believe they all were there
Having the time of their lives

You had Rose's lime
Mixed with vodka, I had wine
People having fun
Cocktails in the evening sun
Give me one!

Happy Meal Ii lyrics

Arrange my books in order
make up some nice stories to amuse you
make things look smart and easy
shape up the place
hungry for the meeting
the dinner we´ll be eating
wine that we´ll be drinking
and kinky thoughts I´m thinking
all because of you

And now I´ve found a partner
no one can be happier than I am
and now I´ve found a new friend
no one can be happier than me

Our Space lyrics

Words: Sveningsson
Music: Svensson

my dear, please see my dear
how we invented the fear
inside that space
no one could interfere
my dear, please see my dear
how we invented the tears
inside that space
no one could interfere

Sick And Tired lyrics

Sick, tired and homeless
With no one here to sing for
Tired of being weightless
For all these looking good boys

You can always say my attic has its charm
You can always say you did no major harm
You can always say that summer had its charm
And that you did no major harm
Oh, spare me if you please

Sick, tired an sleepless
With no one else to shine for
Sick of all my distress

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath lyrics

you've seen life through distorted eyes
you know you had to learn
the execution of your mind
you really had to turn
the race is run the book is read
the end begins to show
the truth is out, the lies are old
but you don't want to know

nobody will ever let you know
when you ask the reasons why
they just tell you that you're on your own
fill your head all full of lies

Rise And Shine lyrics

I want to be alone for a while
I want earth to breathe to me
I want the waves to grow loud
I want the sun to bleed down

See the waves go down
See the moon alone
See the world unshown
I raise my head and whisper

Rise and shine
Rise and shine my sister

I want to see the wounded moon
I want the sea to break through
I want it all to be gone tomorrow
So I've come too say goodbye...

Over The Water lyrics

turn away the collar
because the blowing is dry
walk away to the harbour
before your ships will fly
slip away and the pillow
because it's falling off down
trot away and around
because your ships are found
somewhere over the water
next to a harbour
someone's eager to listen
turn away the collar
because your ships will fly
slip away and the pillow
because it's falling off down
trot away and around

Celia Inside lyrics

You don't want the sun to shine in
So you turn the curtains down
Your eyes still don't show me a thing
And you don't feel it's sunny outside

You don't want no joy for a while
But you stay up late at night
It hurts you that she's still alive
So you'll raise flowerbeds inside

But she, she will not get bothered at all
She's just watching the water at fall

Hey! Get Out Of My Way lyrics

Listen baby
thoughts has crossed my mind
and it's clear now
you are not my kind
oh! I've tried boy
better ways to say
what I feel now
it seems you plan to stay
but I won't waste a day
so I say...

hey! get out of my way
hey! hey! hey!
you've always been in my way

Hear now honey
I'll be good to you
if you stay gone
far out of my view
I'm sick and tired
of your dramatic ways
and when I think of
