Lyrics of Famous Songs

SONG : All That She Wants_________Singer : ACE OF BASE


She leeds a lonely life - she leeds a lonely life

When she woke up late in the morning light
and the day has just begun
she opened her eyes and thought
o' what a morning
it's not a day for work
it's a day for catching tan
just laying on the beach and having fun
she's going to get you

all that she wants is another baby
she's gone tomorrow boy
all that she wants is another baby
all that she wants is another baby
she's gone tomorrow boy
all that she wants is another baby

all that she wants - all that she wants

so if you are in sight and the day is right
she's the hunter you're the fox
the gentle voice that talks to you
won't talk forever
it's a night for passion
but the morning means goodbye
beware of that is flashing on her eyes
she's going to get you

all that she wants ...

SPANISH TRAIN AND OTHER STORIES
SPANISH TRAIN

There's a Spanish Train that runs between
Guadalquivir and old Seville
And at dead of night the whistle blows
And people hear she's running still...

And then they hush their children back to sleep
Lock the doors, upstairs their creep
For it is said that the souls of the dead
Fill that train ten thousand deep!!

Well a railwayman lay dying with his people by his side
His family were crying, knelt in prayer before he died
But above his bed just a-waiting for the dead
Was the devil with a twinkle in his eye
"Well God's not around and look what look I've found
This one's mine!!"

Just then the lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light
And shouted at the Devil "Get thee hence to endless night!!"
But the Devil just grinned and said "I may have sinned,
But there's no need to push me around
I got him first so you can do your worst
He's going undergound!!

"But I think I'll give you one more chance"
Said the Devil with a smile
"So throw away that stupid lance
It's really not your style
"Joker is the name, poker is the game
"We'll play right here on this bed
And then we'll bet for the biggest stakes yet
The souls of the dead!!

And I said "look out lord, he's going to win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
The train is dead on time, many souls are on the line
Oh Lord,He's going to win!..."

Well the railwayman he cut the cards
And he dealt them each a hand of five
And for the Lord he was praying hard
Or that train he'd have to drive...
Well the Devil he had three aces and a king
And the Lord, he was running for a straight
He had the queen and the knave and nine and ten of spades
All he needed was the eight...

And then the Lord he called for one more card
But he drew the diamond eight
And the Devil said to the son of God
"I believe you've got it straight
So deal me one for the time has come
To see who'll be the king of this place"
But as he spoke, from beneath his cloak
He slipped another ace...

Ten thousand souls was the opering bid
And it soon went up to fitty-nine
But the Lord didn't see what the Devil did
And he said "That suits me fine
I'll raise you high to a hundred and five
And forever put an end to your sins"
But the Devil let out a mighty shout, "My hand wins!!!"

And I said "Lord, Oh lord, you let him win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line
Oh lord, don't let him win..."

Well that Spanish Train still runs between
Guadalquivir and old Seville
And at the dead of night the whistle blows
And people fear she's running still...
And far away in some recess
The Lord and the Devil are now playing chess
The Devil still cheats and wins more souls
And as for the Lord, well he's just doing his best...

And I said, "Lord, oh Lord, you've got to win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is still on time, oh my soul is on the line
Oh lord, you've got to win..."

Frozen
written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard
Track 9, Time: 6:13
-------------------------
Verse:

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open

Chorus:

Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken

Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open

(chorus)
(verse)
(chorus, repeat)

If I could melt your heart

Like A Prayer
written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard
Track 1, Time: 5:39
-------------------------
Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

Chorus:

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

(chorus)

Like a child you whisper softly to me
You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing

(chorus)

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

Papa Don't Preach
written by Brian Elliot, additional lyrics by Madonna
Track 1, Time: 4:27
-------------------------
Papa I know you're going to be upset
'Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now
I'm not a baby

You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help, daddy please be strong
I may be young at heart
But I know what I'm saying

The one you warned me all about
The one you said I could do without
We're in an awful mess, and I don't mean maybe - please

Chorus:

Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, I'm keeping my baby, oh
I'm gonna keep my baby, mmm...

He says that he's going to marry me
We can raise a little family
Maybe we'll be all right
It's a sacrifice

But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying I'm too young, I ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good advice, please

(chorus)

Daddy, daddy if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us your blessing right now
'Cause we are in love, we are in love, so please

(chorus)

Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
(repeat)

Oh, I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh
Don't you stop loving me daddy
I know, I'm keeping my baby

Material Girl
written by Peter Brown and Robert Rans
Track 1, Time: 3:56
-------------------------
Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me
I think they're O.K.
If they don't give me proper credit
I just walk away

They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light, that's right
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right, 'cause we are

Chorus:

Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
That's all right with me
If they can't raise my interest then I
Have to let them be

Some boys try and some boys lie but
I don't let them play
Only boys who save their pennies
Make my rainy day, 'cause they are

(chorus)

Living in a material world [material]
Living in a material world
(repeat)

Boys may come and boys may go
And that's all right you see
Experience has made me rich
And now they're after me, 'cause everybody's

(chorus)

A material, a material, a material, a material world

Living in a material world [material]
Living in a material world
(repeat and fade)

Don't Cry For Me Argentina
lyrics by Tim Rice, music by Andrew Lloyd Webber
vocals by Madonna
Disc 2, Track 2, Time: 5:31
-------------------------
(Eva:)
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That I still need your love after all that I've done

You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you

I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun

So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to

Chorus:

Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance

And as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world they were all I desired

They are illusions
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me

Don't cry for me Argentina

(chorus)

Have I said too much?
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you.
But all you have to do is look at me to know
That every word is true

You're My Heart, You're My Soul
Deep in my heart - there's a fire - a burning heart
Deep in my heart - there's desire - for a start
I'm dying in emotion
It's my world in fantasy
I'm living in my, living in my dreams

You're my heart, you're my soul
I'll keep it shining everywhere I go
You're my heart, you're my soul
I'll be holding you forever
Stay with you together

Your my heart, you're my soul
Yeah, I'm feeling that our love will grow
You're my heart, you're my soul
That's the only thing I really know

Let's close the door and believe my burning heart
Feeling alright come on open up your heart
Keep the candles burning
Let your body melt in mine
I'm living in my, living in my dreams

You're my heart, you're my soul
I'll keep it shining everywhere I go
You're my heart, you're my soul
I'll be holding you forever
Stay with you together

Your my heart, you're my soul
Yeah, I'm feeling that our love will grow
You're my heart, you're my soul
That's the only thing I really know

You're my heart, you're my soul
I'll keep it shining everywhere I go
You're my heart, you're my soul
I'll be holding you forever
Stay with you together

Your my heart, you're my soul
Yeah, I'm feeling that our love will grow
You're my heart, you're my soul
That's the only thing I really know

Stranded In The Middle Of Nowhere
Albatross
Show me a dream of love
Albatross
Without her love I'm lost
Good love never dies
Angels never fly so high
I'm dreaming, dreaming
Coming back to me

I'm stranded in the middle of nowhere, take care
I'm stranded in a struggle of my dreams, it seemes
Baby, oh I need you more
Like roses need the rain
Baby, oh I need you more
Come and take my hand

Albatross
Harder I try, bluer I get
Albatross
Don't leave me alone - I'm sad
Oh, I find my home
Right back where I started from
I'm dreaming, dreaming
Coming back to me

I'm stranded
Nobody cries, time's on my side
I'm stranded
I don't know where but you're not theree
I'm stranded
Playing the fool, breaking the rules
I'm stranded
Take up your hand, make me a friend

There's Too Much Blue In Missing You
Like the leaves fall of a tree
I feel your love is dying for me
You tell me it's not the end
Where is the love you forsake
You forsake, you forsake

There's too much blue in missing you
I believe I was a fool
Before you say goodbey
Oh, give us one more try
Yet I can't forget all the love we had
There's too much blue in missing you
Oh believe my heart is true
Your love slipping away, a little bit every day
Throw it away, it's such an easy way

Look at me I'm the lucky one
Without feelings you can't be strong
Though I call you in the night
To hear your voice, Feel you deep inside
