A thing about you

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
I pick up the phoneI'm dialing your numberWhile I pray you're at homeAt home and alone'Cause I can't function on my ownAnd I'll never stop believing
The reaping is doneYou are the oneThe radio is onBut the sound is all goneAnd I wanna walk out in the sunBut latelyThat's been very hard to do
I've got a thing about youAnd I don't really know what to do'Cause I've got a thing about youHey you
I pick up the phoneI'm dialing that numberAnd my heart like a stoneWaits for the toneOh, I can't make it on my ownAnd I'll never stop believing
I know what is rightAnd this is so wrongAlone in my bed, better off on my ownThe TV is on but the colors are goneAnd latelyYou've been painting my world blue
I've got a thing about you(I've got a thing about you)And I don't really care what you doI've got a thing about you(I've got a thing about you)Yeah you
I've got a thing about youI've got a thing about you
LatelyYou've been painting my world blue
I've got a thing about you(I've got a thing about you)And I don't really know what to doI've got a thing about youHoping this story cuts throughYeah, I've got a thing about you(I've got a thing about you)A thing about you
I've got a thing about youI've got a thing about youAnd I don't really know what to do
I've got a thing about you...

It must have been love

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
It must have been love
But it's over now
Lay a whisper on my pillowLeave the winter on the groundI wake up lonely, there's air of silenceIn the bedroom and all around
Touch me nowI close my eyes and dream away
It must have been love but it's over nowIt must have been good but I lost it somehowIt must have been love but it's over nowFrom the moment we touched (touched)
'til the time had run out
Make believing we're togetherThat I'm sheltered by your heartBut in and outside I've turned to waterLike a teardrop in your palm
And it's a hard winter's dayI dream away
It must have been love but it's over nowIt was all that I wanted, now I'm living withoutIt must have been love but it's over nowIt's where the water flowsIt's where the wind blows
It must have been love but it's over nowIt must have been good but I lost it somehowIt must have been love but it's over nowFrom the moment we touched 'til the time had run out
YeahIt must have been love but it's over nowIt was all that I wanted, now I'm living withoutIt must have been love but it's over nowIt's where the water flowsIt's where the wind blows
OoohIt must have been love but it's over nowNowIt must have been love but it's over nowNow

Listen to your heart [Swedish single edit]

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
I know there's something in the wake of your smileI get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeahYou've built a love, but that love falls apartYour little piece of heaven, turns too dark
Listen to your heart, when he's calling for youListen to your heart, there's nothing else you can doI don't know where you're going and I don't know whyBut listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye
Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhileThe precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeahThey're swept away, nothing is what it seemsThe feeling of belonging to your dreams
Listen to your heart, when he's calling for youListen to your heart, there's nothing else you can doI don't know where you're going, and I don't know whyBut listen to your heart, before you tell him goodbye
And there are voices that want to be heardSo much to mention but you can't find the wordsThe scent of magic, the beauty that's been (beauty that's been)When love was wilder than the wind
Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) when he's calling for youListen to your heart (take a listen to it) there's nothing else you can doI don't know where you're going, and I don't know whyListen to your heart, before, oh!
Listen to your heart (take a listen to it) when he's calling for youListen to your heart (take a listen to it) there's nothing else you can doI don't know where you're going, and I don't know whyBut listen to your heart, before
You tell him goodbye
Listen to your heartListen to your heart (take a listen to it)Listen to your heartTake a, take a listen to it (listen to your heart)
Listen to your heartListen to your heartListen to your heartListen to your heartListen to your heartListen to your heartListen to your heartListen to your heart

Fading Like a Flower (Every Time You Leave)

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
In a time
Where the sun descends aloneI ran a long long way from homeTo find a heart that’s made of stone
I will try, I just need a little timeTo get your face right out of my mindTo see the world through different eyes
Every time I see you, oh, I try to hide awayBut when we meet it seems I can’t let goEvery time you leave the roomI feel I’m fading like a flower
Tell me whyWhen I scream there’s no replyWhen I reach out there’s nothing to findWhen I sleep I break down and cryCry, yeah!
Every time I see you, oh, I try to hide awayBut when we meet it seems I can’t let go (can't let go)Every time you leave the roomI feel I’m fading like a flower
Fading like a roseFading like a roseBeaten by the stormTalking to myselfGetting washed by the rainIt’s such a cold cold townOoh, it's such a cold town

Every time I see you, oh, I try to hide awayBut when we meet it seems I can’t let goEvery time you leave the roomI feel I’m fading like a flower

Every time I see you, oh, I try to hide awayBut when we meet it seems I can’t let go (can't let go)Every time you leave the roomI feel I’m fading like a

Every time I see you, oh, I try to hide awayBut when we meet it seems I can’t let go (can't let go)Every time you leave the roomI feel I’m fading like a flower

Ooh...

Oh, oh, oh...
Every time you leave the room...I feel I'm fading like a flowerEvery time I see you...
Oh, I'm fading like a rose
Every time you leave the room...Every time I see you (every time I see you)...

Spending my time

(letra de Per Gessle e música de Per Gessle e Mats "MP" Persson)
What’s the time?Seems it’s already morningI see the sky it’s so beautiful and blueThe TV’s onBut the only thing showing is a picture of you
Oh I get up and make myself some coffeeI try to read a bit but the story’s too thinI thank the lord aboveThat you’re not here to see meIn this shape I’m in...
Spending my timeWatching the days go byFeeling so small I stare at the wallHoping that you think of me tooI’m spending my time
I try to callBut I don’t know what to tell youI leave a kiss on your answering machineOh help me pleaseIs there someone who can make meWake up from this dream?
Hmm...

Spending my timeWatching the days go byFeeling so small I stare at the wallHoping that you are missing me tooI’m spending my time (spending my time)...
Watching the sun go downI fall asleep to the sound of “Tears of a Clown”A prayer gone blindI’m spending my time
My friends keep telling me:“Hey, life will go onTime will make sure I get over you, oh...This silly game of love –You play, you win only to lose.”
Ohhhh...
I'm spending my time (spending my time)...Watching the days go byFeeling so smallI stare at the wallHoping that you think of me tooI’m spending my time (spending my time)...
Watching the suuuun go downI fall asleep to the sound of “Tears of a Clown”A prayer gone blindI’m spending my time

(Spending my time)
I cant' live without your love
(Spending my time)
Oh, I'm spending my time, my time, my time...
The bed's too big without you, honey
(Spending my time)
Oh, ohhh....
(Spending my time)
Oh, ohhh....

Queen of rain

(letra de Per Gessle e música de Per Gessle e Mats "MP" Persson)
In that big, big house there are fifty doorsAnd one of them leads to your heartIn the time of spring I passed your gateAnd tried to make a start
All I knewWas the scent of sea and dewBut I’ve been in love beforeHow about you?
There’s a time for the good in lifeA time to kill the pain in lifeDeam about the sun you queen of rain
In that big old house there are fifty bedsAnd one of them leads to your soulIt’s a bed of fear, a bed of threatsRegrets and sheets so cold
All I knew, your eyes so velvet blueI’ve been in love before how about you?
There’s a time for the good in lifeA time to kill the pain in lifeDream about the sun you queen of rain
It’s time to place your bets in lifeI’ve played the loser’s game of lifeDream about the sun you queen of rain
Time went by as I wrote your name in the skyFly, fly away, bye bye...
[Bo Eriksson tocando Oboé]
It’s time to place your bets in lifeI’ve played the loser’s game of lifeDream about the sun you queen of rain
Dream about the sun you queen of rainDream about the sun you queen of rainHmm...Dream about the sun you queen of rainDream about the sun...

Crash! Boom! Bang! [Single edit]

(letra e música de 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 foreverI sleep with the scarsI wear that won’t healThey won’t heal
'Cos every time I seem to fall in loveCrash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wallCrash! Boom! Bang!
That’s the call, that’s the gameAnd the pain stays the same
I’m walking down this empty road to nowhereI pass by the houses and blocks I once knew
My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow (sorrow)But I always did, and lord, I still do
I’m still breaking the rules...
I kick it upI kick it down
'Cos every time I seem to fall in loveCrash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wallCrash! Boom! Bang!
That’s my realMiddle-nameIt has alwaysBeen the sameThat’s the callThat’s the gameAnd the painStays the same...
I still feel the heat (slowly fallin’ from the sky...)And the taste of the kissingShattered by rain (comin’ tumblin’ from behind...)And the wildHoly war, oh...
I kick it upI kick it down
Oooh, and every time I seem to fall in loveCrash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floorCrash! Boom! Bang!Crash! Boom! Bang!
That’s the callThat’s the gameAnd the painStays the sameThat’s my realMiddle-nameIt has alwaysBeen the same
Oh yeaOh yeaIt has always been the same

Vulnerable [Single edit]

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
Everywhere I look I see her smileHer absent-minded eyesAnd she has kept me wondering for so longHow this thing could go wrong
It seems to me that we are both the samePlaying the same gameBut as darkness falls this true love falls apartInto a riddle of her heart
She's so vulnerable, like china in my handsShe's so vulnerable, and I don't understandI could never hurt the one I loveShe's all I've gotBut she's so vulnerableOh so vulnerable
Days like these no one should be aloneNo heart should hide awayHer touch is gently conquering my mindThere's nothing words can say
She's colored all the secrets of my soulI've whispered all my dreamsBut just as nighttime falls this vision falls apartInto a riddle of her heart, yeah
She's so vulnerable, like china in my handsShe's so vulnerable and I don't understandI could never hurt someone I loveShe's all I've gotBut she's so vulnerableOh so vulnerable
Don't hide your eyes...
She's so vulnerable, like china in my handsShe's so vulnerable and I don't understandI could never hurt the one I loveShe's all I've got
She's so vulnerable, like china in my handsShe's so vulnerable and I don't understandI could never hurt someone I loveShe's all I've gotBut she's so vulnerableOh so vulnerable
She's so vulnerableMy Baby, She's vulnerableShe's so vulnerable

You don’t understand me

(letra e música de Per Gessle e Desmond Child)
I've been up all nightYou've been putting up a fightSeems like nothing I say gets throughHow did this old bed fit a world between me and you?
We said good night, but the silence was so thickYou could cut it with a knifeWe've hit the wall again and there's nothing I can do
You're the oneYeah, I've put all my trust in your handsCome on and look in my eyesHere I am, here I am
You don't understand me, my babyYou don't seem to know that I need you so muchYou don't understand me, my feelingsThe reason I'm breathing, my love
The morning comes and you're reaching out for meJust like everything's the sameAnd I let myself believe things are gonna change
When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body closeDo you wonder who's inside?Maybe there's no way we could feel each other's pain
Tell me why it gets harder to know where I standI guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am
You don't understand me, my babyYou don't seem to know that I need you so muchYou don't understand me, my feelingsThe reason I'm breathing, my love
You don't understand me
You don't understand me, my babyYou don't seem to know that I need you so muchYou don't understand me, my feelingsThe reason I'm breathing, my love
You don't seem to get me, my babyYou don't really see that I live for your touchYou don't understand meMy dreams or the things I believe in, my love
You don't understand meYou don't understand meNo, noUnderstand me

Wish I could fly

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
Haa, yah, yah, ahhh
Halfway through the nightI wake up in a dreamEchoes in my headMake every whisper turn into a scream
I dreamed I could flyOut in the blueOver this townFollowing youOver the treesSubways and carsI’d try to find outWho you really are?
In the middle of the nightMiddle of the nightIn the middle of the nightIn the middle of the night
CoolSweatin’ in my bedGot the windows open wideThinkin’ about all the things you said
I wish I could flyOut in the blueOver this townFollowing you
I’d fly over rooftopsThe great boulevardsTo try to find outWho you really areWho you really are...
I wish I could fly nowI wish I could fly nowI wish I could fly nooow...
I wish I could flyAround and aroundOver this townThe dirt on the ground
I’d follow your courseOf doors left ajarTo try to find outWho you really are?
Who you really are? Ahh..I'd fly, I'd fly, I'd fly..
I wish I could flyOohh... ahhh...
I wake up in a dream (in the middle of the night...
In the middle of the night (in the middle of the night...
I wish I could fly... (in the middle of the night...I wish I could fly

Anyone

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
Ahhh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
Ahhh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
Anyone who have a love close to thisKnows what I’m sayingAnyone who wants a dream to come trueKnows how I’m feeling
All I can think of is you and meDoing the thingsI wanna doAll I imagine is heaven on earthI know it’s you
Anyone who ever kissed in the rainKnows the whole meaningAhhh, ahh, ahh, ahh...Anyone who ever stood in the lightNeeds no explainingAhhh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
But everything more or lessAppears so meaninglessBlue and coldWalking alone through the afternoon trafficI miss you so
Anyone who feltLike I doAnyone who wasn’t ready to fallAnyone who lovedLike I doKnows it never really happens at all
It’s over when it’s overWhat can I do about itNow that it’s over
Ahhh, ahh, ahh, ahh...Ahhh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
Everything more or lessIs looking so meaninglessAnd fades to greyLying awakeIn an ocean of teardropsI float away
Oh, anyone who ever felt like I doAnyone who wasn’t ready to fallAnyone who loved like I doKnows it never really happens at all
It’s over when it’s overWhat can I do about itOh, that it's overHey babe...
Anyone who feltLike I do, oh oh...Anyone who wasn’t ready to fallOh, anyone who loved like I doKnows it never really happens at all
It’s over when it’s overWhat can I do about itNow, now it’s all overIt's all over babe...
Anyone who feltOhh...Anyone, anyoneAnyone who loved like I doKnows it never really happens...

Salvation

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
I can barely remember my pastEverything seems to disappear so fastBut I recallBeing jealous and aloneGazing at the dreams going by
I started my life when you knocked on the doorFound something inside I didn’t dare to ignoreNow I do believeIn flowers on the moonI’ll swim beside the golden tide
YouCrashed by the gateCaptured my fateSalvation
My eyes couldn’t seeI hardly breathedI was diving so deepSalvation
I’m down in the study holding on to my luckWill you still love me when I call you up?I gave you my bodyThe power over meCome on bring out the best in meOhhh yeahh...
YouCrashed by the gateCaptured my fateSalvation
My eyes couldn’t seeI hardly breathedMy heart was asleepSalvation
Some will get brokenOthers will get lucky like me meeting youDon’t pass me by
Ooohhh...Salvation
YouCrashed by the gateCaptured my fateOh, salvation
My eyes couldn’t seeI hardly breathedI was down on my kneesSalvation
Some will get brokenOthers will get lucky like me meeting youDon’t pass me byDon’t pass me by...
I found salvationOoh yeahYou bring me salvation, oh oh oh...I found salvation...

Breathe

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
Breathe... your love...
I’ve got to come downI’ve been awake for far too longMy eyes look tornThey were so strongI wore the crown, I wrote the songNow it’s fading
My heart was openLike a window to a summer breeze
I breathed (breathe...)Your loveI filled my lungs and veinsAnd I breathed (breathe...)
Your love
Until I felt the pain and like rain (breathe...)It slippedAway
I tried to find outWhat love was really all aboutBehind the curtain waits the skyIt’s rare I feel enough to cryI’m drying up inside
My life was open
Oh, like a window to the summer breeze
I breathed (breathe... I breathed)
Your loveI filled my lungs and veinsAnd I breathed (breathe... I breathed)
Your loveUntil I met the painAnd like rain (breathe...)It slippedAwayJust like a little rain
I breathed (breathe... I breathed)
Your love
And nothing stayed the sameYes, I breathed (breathe... I breathed)Your love
And filled my heart in vain'Cause like rain (breathe...)
It slipped
AwayOhhh, yeah
Just like rainIt sweptAway
Breathe...I breathed your love (your love...)And nothing stayed the same (breathe...)Ohhh, I breathed (your love...)Your love, just like a little rain (breathe...)It sweptAway
Oh, I breathe (breathe...)Oh, ehh...And nothing stay...

The weight of the world

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
Sunday morningI’m still hiding in bed
Listening to the rhythm of the rainAbove my headAnd all that I have saidI sure saved a lot for you...
But what could I do?
If I’d been talking to the wallIt wouldn’t make any difference to youThat’s the art of being you
I think I carry the weight of the worldSometimes you loseThe weight of the worldSometimes you cry
I kiss your smileI wish you’d stay the nightI put my arms around your golden headAnd turn out the lightOh, I love to watch your eyesWhen I make love to you
Wait little worldSometimes you loseThe weight of the worldSometimes you cryyySometimes you cryyy
The weight of the world (weight of the world...)Sometimes you loseThe weight of the world (weight of the world...)Sometimes you cryyySometimes you cryyy

It hurts

(letra e música de Per Gessle)
Can you tell me where it leavesWhen it’s neverending?Can you tell me where to goWhen no one’s home?
And I knowYou knowIt hurtsIt hurts to be aloneYou’re onYour ownOn the one-way train going down
Can you tell me what to sayWhen there’s no one listening?Can you show meWhat to doWhen all is done?
Oh, I knowYou knowIt hurtsIt hurts to be aloneThe planHas gone wrongLike a runaway train going down
Oh, going down, down, downGoing downGoing down, down, downOooohhhh
Yes I knowYou knowIt hurtsIt hurts to be aloneYou’re onOn your ownOn a one-way train going downGoing down
Going down, down, downGoing downGoing down, down, down
It hurts to be aloneIt hurts to be alone
Going down

See me

(letra de Per Gessle e música de Marie Fredriksson)
Ooh...Hmm, nanananana...Hm, hm...
With the moonAnd the sun in his eyesHe’s arrivin’
And I don’t knowWhat I’d do without himI’ve got lifeSuddenly
See, see meI’ve got nothing to hideSee meI’ve got nothing to hideSee me
I’m leavin’ my heartIn the palm of his handSo gently
I know he knows that I love himThough I’ve never saidIs there an easy way?
See, see meI’ve got nothing to hide (ahhh...)See meI’ve got nothing to hide (ahhh...)See me
Comin’ home, I’m comin’ homeIt feels like I’m comin’ homeComin’ home, I’m comin’ home
See, (see me, see me) see meI’ve got nothing to hide (nothing to hide...)See meI’ve got nothing to hide (nothing to hide...)
See, (see me, see me) see meAhhhhh... (nothing to hide...)I’ve got nothing to hide (nothing to hide...)I've got nothing to hide... (ahhhhh...)See me...See me... (ahhhhh...)

Every day

(letra de Per Gessle e música de Marie Fredriksson)
Every day I see him comingEvery day he walks on byLife used to be so plain and simpleBefore he came into my life
Every night I keep on dreamingEvery night I take him homeWe always go to bed togetherI always wake up alone
Oh, it's strange, so strangeWhat he's doing to meOh, it's strange, so strangeDid this ever happen to youThe way it has happened to meThe way it just happened to me
Every day outside my windowAlways minutes close to eightI wish he stayed a little longerBut his bus is never late
Every night we're dancing slowlyI play the music he adoresLike Sinatra then we're talkingAll important things for sure
Oh, it's strange, so strangeWhat he's doing to meOh it's strange, so strangeDid this ever happen to youThe way it has happened to me
Oh it's strange, so strangeWhat he's doing to meOh it's strange, real strangeDid this ever happen to youThe way it has happened to meThe way it just happened to me
