ABBA (ᗅᗺᗷᗅ) je bila švedska pop grupa koja važi za komercijalno najuspešniju pop grupy na svetu. Grupa je dominirala na top-listama od sredine sedamdesetih do početka osamdesetih, prodavši mnogo hit singlova i albuma. Procene ABBA-ine prodaje u svetu variraju od 370 do 500 miliona, što bi ih moglo učiniti drugim najuspešnijim bendom na svetu posle Bitlsa. Oni su prva pojava sa evropskog tla koja je postala redovan deo britanskih, američkih i australijskih top-lista, a njihov uspeh je otvorio vrata za mnoge druge evropske grupe. Njihovo neprekidno nasleđe označava švedsku muzičku industriju kao mejstrim igrača.

ABBA je osnovana oko 1972, a činili su je: Bjorn Ulvaes, Beni Anderson, Agneta Feltskog i Ani-Frid Lingštad. Postali su širom poznati nakon pobeđivanja na takmičenju Evrovizija 1974. sa pesmom Vaterlo. Grupu su činila dva bračna para, Bjorn i Agneta i Beni i Ani-Frid. ABBA je kolektivno odlučila da se rasformira početkom 1983.

Ime ABBA dolazi od prvih slova imena svakog člana grupe.

"Al Andar (Move On - in Spanish)"

Se dice que el ansioso
esconde un alma en paz,
viajero o misionero
va lejos mucho mas
Si miro hasta el cielo
o dentro mio, no se,
ya nada importa mucho
si peudo con sinceridad
saber que, lo intente.

Como el mar y su creciente
va la gente al andar
como el viento y su corrida
va la vida al andar
como el sol a la manana
que reclama el andar
atesoro el momento
vivo y siento
es mi intento
y lo hago al andar.

Viaje por tantos lados
en la imaginacion
estamos siempre andando
sin tiempo ni razon
quien sabe las respuestas
quien puede elegir
si existen diferencias
sabemos que hay, en cada ser
deseos de vivir.

Como el mar y su creciente
va la gente al andar
como el viento y su corrida
va la vida al andar
como el sol a la manana
que reclama el andar
atesoro el momento
vivo y siento
es mi intento
y lo hago al andar.

La brisa que acaricia
con suavidad el mar
y todas las gaviotas
que vuelan sin cesar
lo veo y lo siento
y no lo se explicar
esplendido momento
sentir llover
y el sol nacer
vivir y disfrutar

Como el mar y su creciente
va la gente al andar
como el viento y su corrida
va la vida al andar
como el sol a la manana
que reclama el andar
atesoro el momento
vivo y siento
es mi intento
y lo hago al andar.

Como el viento y su corrida
va la vida al andar
como el sol a la manana
que reclama el andar
atesoro el momento
vivo y siento
es mi intento
y lo hago al andar.

"Andante, Andante"

Take it easy with me, please
Touch me gently like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, Andante
Just let the feeling grow

Make your fingers soft and light
Let your body be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul, you know how
Andante, Andante
Go slowly with me now

I'm your music
(I am your music and I am your song)
I'm your song
(I am your music and I am your song)
Play me time and time again and make me strong
(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down

There's a shimmer in your eyes
Like the feeling of a thousand butterflies
Please don't talk, go on, play
Andante, Andante
And let me float away

I'm your music
(I am your music and I am your song)
I'm your song
(I am your music and I am your song)
Play me time and time again and make me strong
(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down

Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me...)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down
Andante, Andante
Oh please don't let me down...
 
"Angeleyes"

Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
I keep thinking, a-aaah

Last night I was taking a walk along the river
And I saw him together with a young girl
And the look that he gave her made me shiver
'Cause he always used to look at me that way
And I thought maybe I should walk right up to her and say
Ah-ha-ha, it's a game he likes to play

Look into his angeleyes
One look and you're hypnotized
He'll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angeleyes
You'll think you're in paradise
And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise
Don't look too deep into those angeleyes
Oh no no no no

Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
I keep thinking, a-aaah

Sometimes when I'm lonely I sit and think about him
And it hurts to remember all the good times
When I thought I could never live without him
And I wonder does it have to be the same
Every time when I see him, will it bring back all the pain?
Ah-ha-ha, how can I forget that name?

Look into his angeleyes
One look and you're hypnotized
He'll take your heart and you must pay the price
Look into his angeleyes
You'll think you're in paradise
And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise
Don't look too deep into his angeleyes
Crazy 'bout his angeleyes
Angeleyes
Once he took my heart and now I pay the price
Look into his angeleyes
You'll think you're in paradise
And one day you'll find out he wears a disguise
Don't look too deep into those angeleyes
Oh no no no no

Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah
Ah-ha-ha, ah-aaaah

Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking, ah-aaaah
Keep thinking 'bout his angeleyes
Ah-ha-ha, keep thinking, ah-aaaah
Keep thinking, I had to pay the price

[repeat & fade]
 
"Another Town, Another Train"

Day is dawning and I must go
You're asleep but still I'm sure you'll know
Why it had to end this way
You and I had a groovy time
But I told you somewhere down the line
You would have to find me gone
I just have to move along
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations

When you wake I know you'll cry
And the words I wrote to say goodbye
They won't comfort you at all
But in time you will understand
That the dreams we dreamed were made of sand
For a no-good bum like me
To live is to be free

Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Look in my restless soul, a little patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations

[repeat and fade]
 
"As Good As New"

I'll never know why I had to go
Why I had to put up such a lousy rotten show
Boy, I was tough, packing all my stuff
Saying I don't need you anymore, I've had enough
And now, look at me standing here again 'cause I found out that
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma my life is here
Gotta have you near

As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together

Feel like a creep, never felt so cheap
Never had a notion that my love could be so deep
How could I make such a dumb mistake
Now I know I'm not entitled to another break
But please, baby, I beg you to forgive 'cause I found out that
Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma my life is here
Gotta get you near

I thought that our love was at an end but here I am again

As good as new, my love for you
And keeping it that way is my intention
As good as new and growing too
Yes, I think it's taking on a new dimension
It's as good as new, my love for you
Just like it used to be and even better
As good as new, thank God it's true
Darling, we were always meant to stay together

Yes the love I have for you feels as good as new
Darling, we were always meant to stay together
 
"Bang-A-Boomerang"

Making somebody happy is a question of give and take
You can learn how to show it so come on, give yourself a break
Every smile and every little touch
Don't you know that they mean so much
Sweet sweet kisses so tender
Always will return to sender

Like a bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Dum-be-dum-dum be-dum-be-dum-dum
Oh bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Love is a tune you hum-de-hum-hum
So give it away, I think you'll learn
You'll get love in return
So bang, a boom-a-boomerang is love
A boom-a-boomerang is love

Love is always around and you can look for it anywhere
When you feel that you've found it my advice is to take good care
Never use it as a selfish tool
Never ever be such a fool
Every feeling you're showing
Is a boomerang you're throwing

Yes a bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Dum-be-dum-dum be-dum-be-dum-dum
Oh bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Love is a tune you hum-de-hum-hum
So give it away, I think you'll learn
You'll get love in return
So bang, a boom-a-boomerang is love

And if you're warm and tender
I'll kiss you, return to sender
Please surrender

Bang, a boom-a-boomerang
Dum-be-dum-dum be-dum-be-dum-dum
Oh bang, a boom-a-boomerang is love
A boom-a-boomerang is love
 
"Cassandra"

Down in the street they're all singing and shouting
Staying alive though the city is dead
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter
While you are crying alone in your bed

Pity Cassandra that no one believed you
But then again you were lost from the start
Now we must suffer and sell our secrets
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts

Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted but none of us could
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe
You really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour

So in the morning your ship will be sailing
Now that your father and sister are gone
There is no reason for you to linger
You're grieving deeply but still moving on
You know the future is casting a shadow
No one else sees it but you know you're fate
Packing your bags, being slow and thorough
Knowing, though you're late, that ship is sure to wait

Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted but none of us could
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe
You really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour

I watched the ship leaving harbor at midnight
Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain
She stood on deck, just a tiny figure
Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted but none of us could
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe
You really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour

I'm sorry Cassandra
I'm sorry Cassandra
 
"Chiquitita (In Spanish)"

Chiquitita, dime por que
tu dolor hoy te encadena
en tus ojos hay
una sombra de gran pena.

No quisiera verte asi
aunque quieras disimularlo
si es que tan triste estas
para que quieres callario

Chiquitita, dimelo tu
en mi hombro, aqui llorando
cuenta conmigo ya
para asi seguir andando

Tan segura te conoci
y ahora tu ala quebrada
dejamela arreglar
yo la quiero ver curada

Chiquitita, sabes muy bien
que las penas vienen y van y desaparecen
otra vez vas a bailar y seras feliz,
como flores que florecen.

Chiquitita, no hay que llorar
las estrellas brillan por ti alla en lo alto,
quiero verte sonreir para compartir
tu alegria, Chiquitita.

Otra vez quiero compartir
tu alegria Chiquitita.

Chiquitita, dime por que
tu dolor hoy te encadena
en tus ojos hay
una sombra de gran pena.

No quisiera verte asi
aunque quieras disimularlo
si es que tan triste estas
para que quieres callario

Chiquitita, sabes muy bien
que las penas vienen y van y desaparecen
otra vez vas a bailar y seras feliz,
como flores que florecen.

Chiquitita, no hay que llorar
las estrellas brillan por ti alla en lo alto,
quiero verte sonreir para compartir
tu alegria, Chiquitita.

Otra vez quiero compartir
tu alegria Chiquitita.

Otra vez quiero compartir
tu alegria Chiquitita.
 
"Conociendome, Conociendote (Knowing Me Knowing You - in Spanish)"

Ya no hay mas sonrisas
todo finaliza

nuestra casa hoy vacia
me hace llorar
y la historia aquitermina
hay que olvidar

Solo tu, sola yo
poco y nada se logro
solo tu, sola yo
nuestro amor quien puede negar, paso

Separarse es tan dificil lo se, pero yo mo ire
Conociendome a mi, conociendote a ti

Bueno, malo, tanto
Guardo risas, llanto
en los cuartos donde vimos, ninos jugar
hoy hay solo un gran silencio, en el lugar

Solo tu, sola yo
poco y nada se logro
solo tu, sola yo
nuestro amor quien puede negar, paso

Separarse es tan dificil lo se, pero yo mo ire
Conociendome a mi, conociendote a ti

Solo tu, sola yo
poco y nada se logro
solo tu, sola yo
nuestro amor quien puede negar, paso

Separarse es tan dificil lo se, pero yo mo ire
Conociendome a mi, conociendote a ti
 
"Crazy World"

I was out for the morning sun
Couldn't sleep so I thought I'd take a walk
I was thinking of you and me
And I went to your house 'cos I had to talk
I could hardly believe my eyes
When I saw this guy closing your front door
Had a feeling of emptiness
Like I've never had before

And I close my eyes
Will you leave me, girl?
And I realise
It's a crazy world

As he disappeared in his car
I was stunned and I didn't know what to do
Everything I had ever been
Everything in my life's a part of you
And I just couldn't move my feet
So I stood on the pavement as you came out
You acted as you didn't know
What it was all about

And I close my eyes
Will you leave me, girl?
And I realise
It's a crazy world

Baby how could you do it
You just told me lies
Had you been behind my back with other guys?
Baby how could you tell me
There was only me
I was stupid to believe you
I was blind but now I see

Then you smiled and you took my hand
"There is something," you said "that you may not know.
There's a couple of men in my life,
And one of them is my brother Joe.
He's been gone for a long long time
But he's back and I think he's gonna stay.
You'll be seeing a lot of him
He's so nice in every way."

And I close my eyes
Never leave me, girl
And I realise
It's a crazy world
So I close my eyes
Never leave me, girl
Then I realise
It's a crazy world
 
"Dame! Dame! Dame! (Gimme Gimme Gimme - in Spanish)"

El reloj
ya marco medianoche
y otra vez encontre
que tan solo me acompana la TV

El soplar
de ese viento afuera
vive la deolacion
me oprime con angustia el corazon.
No hay mas que soledad
nadie, ni por piedad.

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca
ver el dia aclarar

Tantos hay
con gran suerte y fortuna
todo pueden conseguir
tan distinto a lo que tengo que vivir

Aburrida me encuentro esta noche
y la gran oscuridad
es mi siempre obligada amistad.
No hay mas que soledad
nadie, ni por piedad.

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca
ver el dia aclarar

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche

No hay mas que soledad
nadie, ni por piedad.

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca
ver el dia aclarar

Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
alguien que me ayude
a las sombras borrar
Dame, dame, dame
amor esta noche
hasta que amanezca
ver el dia aclarar
 
"Dance (While The Music Still Goes On)"

Oh, my love it makes me sad.
Why did things turn out so bad?
Was it just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?

Baby, give me one more
Dance while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow
Dance and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow.
Let's make it a memory, a night of our own
A thing to remember when we're all alone
So dance, it's our way to say goodbye

Yes, all we have to do is
Dance while the music still goes on
This is no time for crying
Dance, don't you hear them play our song
God knows that we've been trying
But we didn't make it 'cause nothing's the same
We just couldn't help it, nobody's to blame
So dance while the music still goes on
And let it be our last goodbye

Yet it seems to make me sad.
Why did things turn out so bad?
Was is just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?

Baby, give me one last
Dance while the music still goes on
Just like the night I met you
Dance and believe me, when you're gone
You know I won't forget you
Our love was a snowbird, it's flying away
You tell me it's over, what more can I say?
So dance while the music still goes on
It's gonna be our last goodbye

Dance while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow
Dance and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow.
Let's make it a memory, a night of our own
A thing to remember when we're all alone
So dance while the music still goes on
And let it be our last goodbye

Dance while the music still goes on
This is no time for crying
Dance, don't you hear them play our song
God knows that we've been trying
Dance while the music still goes on
Just like the night I met you
Dance and believe me, when you're gone
You know I won't forget you

"Dancing Queen"

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music's high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
Leave them burning and then you're gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You're in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

[fade]
 
"Disillusion"

Changing, moving, in a circle
I can see your face in all of my dreams
Smiling, laughing, from the shadows
When I hear your voice I know what it means
I know it doesn't matter just how hard I try
You're all the reason for my life
Disillusion, disillusion's all you left for me

How can I forget you when my world is breaking down
You're all I had, you're all I want
Disillusion, disillusions now, that's all I have

Wishing, hoping, chasing shadows
Did I see your face somewhere in the crowd
Thinking, wondering, what you're doing
I can stop myself from crying out loud
They say my wound will heal and only leave a scar
But then, they'd never shared our love
Disillusion, disillusion's all you left for me

How can I forget you when my world is breaking down
You're all I had, you're all I want
Disillusion, disillusions now, that's all I have
Disillusion, disillusions now, that's all I have
 
"Does Your Mother Know"

You're so hot, teasing me
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
That's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now you're so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
But girl you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?

"Dum Dum Diddle"

I can hear how you work, practising hard
Playing night and day, woah-oh
And it sounds better now
Yes, you improve every time you play, woah-oh
But it's bad
You're so sad
And you're only smiling
When you play your violin

Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
To be so near you and not just hear you
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
I think then maybe you'd see me, baby
You'd be mine
And we'd be together all the time
Wish I was, dum-dum-diddle, your darling fiddle
But I think you don't know that I exist
I'm the quiet kind, woah-oh
From the day when I first listened to you
You've been on my mind, woah-oh
You don't care
It's not fair
And you're only smiling
When you play your violin

Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
To be so near you and not just hear you
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
I think then maybe you'd see me, baby
You'd be mine
And we'd be together all the time
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
To be so near you and not just hear you
Dum-dum-diddle, to be your fiddle
I think then maybe you'd see me, baby
You'd be mine
And we'd be together all the time
Wish I was, dum-dum-diddle, your darling fiddle
 
"Eagle"

They came flying from far away, now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell
They've seen places beyond my land and they've found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand

And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please

As all good friends we talk all night, and we fly wing to wing
I have questions and they know everything
There's no limit to what I feel, we climb higher and higher
Am I dreaming or is it all real?

Is it true I'm an eagle?
Is it true I can spread my wings?
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
(I'm an eagle)
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
(What a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please

And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
(I'm an eagle)
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
(What a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
(I'm an eagle)
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
(What a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
 
"Estoy Sonando (I Have A Dream - in Spanish)"

Yo lo sone
y el corazon
me hablo de amor
con emocion

Si vives la magia
de hadas que hacen bien
veras que el futuro
sonrie tambien

Creo en angelitos
que me cuidan siempre de caer
Creo en angelitos
que la vida linda me hacen ver
Y llegare
yo lo sone

Yo lo sone
no fue ilusion
y me ayudo
en mi afliccion

Y la fantasia
a la oscuridad
la transforma en dia
en una verdad

Creo en angelitos
que me cuidan siempre de caer
Creo en angelitos
que la vida linda me hacen ver
Y llegare
yo lo sone

Y llegare
yo lo sone

Yo lo sone
y el corazon
me hablo de amor
con emocion

Si vives la magia
de hadas que hacen bien
veras que el futuro
sonrie tambien

Creo en angelitos
que me cuidan siempre de caer
Creo en angelitos
que la vida linda me hacen ver
Y llegare
yo lo sone
 
"Elaine"

You hate, you scream, you swear
And still you never reach him
You curse, you try to scare
But you can never teach him
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine

Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You know they're gonna get you
You try to break away
But they will never let you
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind, they'll take your soul

You come, you stay, you go
It really doesn't matter
You've done it all before
By now they'll know the pattern
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind, they'll take your soul
Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you
Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you

It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind, they'll take your soul
Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you
Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you
 
"Fernando"

Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now Fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

Now we're old and grey Fernando
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando...
 
"Fernando (In Spanish)"

Puedes escuchar Fernando?
me recuerda tiempo atras
estrellas y una noche alla
en la lumbre azul Fernando
tarareabas tu cancion
con ese suave guitarrear
yo podia escuchar
esos tambores con un sordo redoblar

Se acercaban mas fernando
y el momento que pasaba
parecia eternidad
y senti temor Fernando
por la vida y juventud
nadie pensaba en morir
y no siento hoy verguenza al
confesar que tuve
ganas de llorar

Algo habia alrededor quiza
de claridad Fernando
que brillaba por nosotros dos
en proteccion Fernando
no pensabamos jamas perder
ni echar atras
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando

La vejez llego Fernando
y con ella una paz
que hoy logramos disfrutar
se durmio el tambor Fernando
Paraciera que fue ayer
que lo vivimos tu y yo
y en tus ojos veo aun
aquel orgullo que refleja tu valor.

Algo habia alrededor quiza
de claridad Fernando
que brillaba por nosotros dos
en proteccion Fernando
no pensabamos jamas perder
ni echar atras
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando

Algo habia alrededor quiza
de claridad Fernando
que brillaba por nosotros dos
en proteccion Fernando
no pensabamos jamas perder
ni echar atras
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando
si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando

Si tuviera que volverlo a hacer
lo haria ya Fernando

"Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)"

Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside my window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with a fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
 
"Gonna Sing You My Lovesong"

You say she's been mad at you
Then you say you'll be patient, ooh
Still I see that she makes you blue
Come on, I'll give you consolation

Gonna sing you my love song, gonna bring you some light
Gonna make you feel happy every day of your life
Gonna sing you my love song, gonna make it all right
You're all I ever need, my darling
Just to be where you wanna be
So much fun we could have then, hmm
To be close for eternity
What a miracle to happen

Gonna sing you my lovesong, gonna sing it for you
Gonna give you sweet loving, gonna give myself too
Gonna sing you my lovesong, when I think about you
I know she doesn't make it easy
'Cause you don't please her like you please me

You're my life, you're my angel
You're my first, you're my last
Would she care if you lingered
For another night
Wanna hold you tight
We could make it right

Gonna sing you my lovesong, gonna bring you some light
Gonna make you feel happy every day of your life
Gonna sing you my lovesong, gonna make it all right
I know she doesn't make it easy
Gonna sing you my lovesong, gonna sing it for you
Gonna give you sweet loving, gonna give myself too
Gonna sing you my lovesong, when I think about you
You're all I ever need, my darling
And I would love to sing my lovesong
For you
 
"Gracias Por La Musica (Thank You For The Music - in Spanish)"

Soy muy sencilla
y algo aburrida tal vez
las bromas que se, me salen seguro al reves
pero hay un talento, en mi singular
y es que la gente me escucha al cantar
y me hace feliz
orgullosa lo puedo anunciar, por eso

Quiero dar las gracias
a las canciones
que transmiten emociones
quiero dar las gracias
por lo que me hacen sentir, debo admitir
que con la musica vale vivir
por eso quiero dar las gracias
por este don en mi.

Todos decian que fui una nina precoz
baile y cante y sobresali por mi voz
y hoy me pregunto cual es la razon
por que siempre gana la gran atencion
una simple cancion
si he hace con el corazon, por eso...

Quiero dar las gracias
a las canciones
que transmiten emociones
quiero dar las gracias
por lo que me hacen sentir, debo admitir
que con la musica vale vivir
por eso quiero dar las gracias
por este don en mi.

Que suerte tuve
soy tan dichosa al cantar
quiero que todos disfrutemos juntos
que feliz, que placer, exclamar

Quiero dar las gracias
a las canciones
que transmiten emociones
quiero dar las gracias
por lo que me hacen sentir, debo admitir
que con la musica vale vivir
por eso quiero dar las gracias
por este don en mi.
por eso quiero dar las gracias
por este don en mi.
