Roxette Album

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
And she's all mine, my magic friend

She says: Hello, you fool, I love you
Come on join the joyride
Join the joyride

She's a flower, I can paint her
She's a child of the sun
We're a part of this together
Could never turn around and run
Don't need no fortune teller
To know where my lucky love belongs,
Oh no

Cause it all begins again when it ends
And we're all magic friends

She says: Hello, you fool, I love you
Come on join the joyride
Join the joyride

Be a joyrider

I take you on a skyride
A feeling like you're spellbound
The sunshine is a lady
Who ROX you like a baby

She says: Hello, you fool, I love you
Come on join the joyride

You know I'm hotblooded, baby...

Get on up and kick it all the systems are ready to go
Well, are you ready or not? Hey, I gotta know!
Baby, lay down the blues and let those guitars bleed
I'm everything you wanted, I'm all you ever need

Cause I'm hotblooded, hotblooded
I need your lovin? I need your love so bad

Flash all the lights, Ill be a camera tonight
Ill snap the look on your face when I'm squeezing you tight
Yea, sisters o'soul, we gotta burn this old house down
Keep on beatin?those drums, keep on pumpin?up that sound, yea yea yea yea yea

Hotblooded, I'm hotblooded
I need your lovin? I need your love so bad
I'm hotblooded, hotblooded
You gotta know it, I need a shot of love so bad

I stay up late where the nights alive
No sleep at all, I can work nine to five
Its honey do that, and honey do this:
"Can I call you home?"
"Can I call you home?"
"Can I call?" - you can call me miss...

Cause baby don't you know that I'm
Hotblooded, I'm hotblooded
I need your lovin? I need your love so bad
I'm hotblooded, hotblooded

In a time where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart that's made of stone

I will try, I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind
To see the world through different eyes

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go
Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower

Tell me why
When I scream there's no reply
When I reach out there's nothing to find
When I sleep I break down and cry
Cry, yeah

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go
Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower

Fading like a rose
Fading like a rose
Beaten by the storm
Talking to myself
Getting washed by the rain
It's such a cold cold town
Oh, it's a such cold town

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can't let go

Hey now honey
You got to face the floor
You headed for the heart
But you couldn't find the door, could you?
Could you?

Well, I'm standing in the sun
But I'm living in the rain
I got to get a-whirlin' like a human hurricane over you
Over you

Now you're looking like a fox on the run
And you're faster than a shot from a gun
I'm pointing at you, oh you
Talking 'bout you, hey you

I thought we had love in store
You keep on knockin' on every door
Babe, I've seen it all before
You keep on knockin' on every door
Ain't no lovin' you ignore
You keep on knockin' on every door
Keep keep knock knockin' on every door
You keep on knockin' on every door

Hey now honey
Time is all you've spent
You moved into the bed
But you couldn't pay the rent, could you?
Could you?

In the twinkle of an eye
You electrify
I got to get a-shootin' like a rocket in the sky, bye bye
Goodbye

Now you're burning like you're hot on the scene
Don't you love to steal a part of my dream?
I'm looking at you, oh you
Talking 'bout you, yea you

I thought we had love in store
You keep on knockin' on every door
Babe, I've seen it all before
You keep on knockin' on every door
Ain't no lovin' you ignore
You keep on knockin' on every door
Keep keep knock knockin' on every door
You keep on knockin' on every door

I thought we used to have love in store
You keep knock knockin' on every door
Hey babe, don't run around here no more
You keep on knockin' on every door
Ain't no sugar you ignore
You keep on knockin' on every door
Keep keep knock knockin' on every door
You keep on knockin' on every door

What's the time?
Seems its already morning
I see the sky, its so beautiful and blue
The TV's on
But the only thing showing is a picture of you

Oh, I get up and make myself some coffee
I try to read a bit but the story's too thin
Then I thank the Lord above
That you're not there to see me
In this shape I'm in

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small
I stare at the wall
Hoping that you think of me too
I'm spending my time

I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
I leave a kiss on your answering machine
Oh, help me please
Is there someone who can make me
Wake up from this dream?

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small
I stare at the wall
Hoping that you are missing me too

I'm spending my time
Watching the sun go down
I fall asleep to the sound
Of "tears of a clown"
A prayer gone blind

I'm spending my time

My friends keep telling me:
Hey, life will go on
Time will make sure will get over you
This silly game of love you play you win only to lose

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small
I stare at the wall
Hoping that you are missing me too

I'm spending my time
Watching the sun go down
I fall asleep to the sound
Of "tears of a clown"

Are you ready? Go!

I hear your footsteps like you're walking
I hear your voice like you're talking to me
I can reach every moment
Every caress like I'm living a dream

Down to the bone, go little darling

Oh I remember you
Feels like it was yesterday
I remember you
You've got me running back again

You shared my secrets and my laughter
I fell in love with the light in your eyes
And I believed that summer
Would go on and on for the rest of my life

Down to the bone, go little darling

Hey I remember you
Feels like it was yesterday
I remember you
You've got me running back again
You've got me running

Na na na na
Na na na na

Down to the bone, go little darling

Hey I remember you
Feels like it was yesterday
I remember you
You've got me running back again
You've got me running

I say: Na na na na

Going through the motions
Ending up
Nowhere at all
Can't see the sun on my wall

Going through emotions
Ending up
On a frozen morning
With a heart not even broken

Seems I've been running
All my life
All my life

Seems I've been running
All my life
All my life
All my life
Like watercolours in the rain

Find a place to settle down
Get a job
In a city nearby
And watch the trains
Roll on by

I'll find the falling star
I'll fall In love
With the eyes of a dreamer
And a dream worth believing

Seems I've been running
All my life
All my life

Seems I've been running
All my life
All my life
All my life

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
Yes I know what hearts can do

The big love is taking the wheel
The big love goes head over heels
The big lust, bring it into the small world
The bigger, the better

Big love, waiting to catch the big one
Head over heels, the big one
Bring it into the small world
I'm building the big big love
I'm building the big big love

It's kinda strange, a bit mysterious
I gotta take it oh so so serious, yea yea

Hey now, touch the sky
You've got a certain kind of look in your eyes

It used to be so hard so lonely at night
Well, she's my baby and I'm feeling allright

Hey now, move the sky
There's a certain kind of look in that smile

When I'm making love with her
When I'm making love to her, yea

The big love is taking the wheel
The big love goes head over heels
The big lust, bring it into the small world
The bigger, the better

Big love, waiting to catch the big one
Head over heels, the big one
Bring it into the small world
I'm building the big big love
I'm building the big big love

It has to be a big thing
It's bringing me to my knees
Has to be a big thing
Big thing

Save a prayer for a sinner and a saint, my baby's coming back
Say a prayer, hide hide away yea baby's coming back
Hey hey hey, ain't gonna trouble his wandering mind
Gonna take on the time to find out if my love is

Soul deep - spinning the heart round a wire
Soul deep - a heavenly wave
Soul deep - heating the heart like a fire
Soul deep is taking my breath away-ay-ay

Save a tear till the curtain will fall, well I'm saving them all for you
Knock on wood, is it understood that I'm saving it up for you
Hey hey hey, love is a hustle just a moment behind
Gonna walk on the line to find out if my love is

Soul deep - spinning the heart round a wire
Soul deep - a heavenly wave
Soul deep - heating the heart like a fire
Soul deep is taking my breath away-ay-ay

Save a prayer for a sinner and a saint, my baby's coming back
Say a prayer, hide hide away yea yea baby's coming back
Hey hey hey ride on the soul train now I'm too close to hide
Gonna take on the time to find out if my love is

Soul deep - spinning the heart round a wire
Soul deep - a heavenly wave
Soul deep - heating the heart like a fire

When the day gets dark
Over a thousand streets
And you feel your heart
Is a living beat

When you're all alone
And you close your eyes
Naked to the bone
The dream comes alive

Do you get excited
When I touch you in the night?
My oh my...
Do you get excited
When I meet you every night?
You won't let the night pass you by

When your body's hot
The window's open wide
This moment's all you got
In this race of life

When you feel the fire
Is getting close to you
Hey baby, you know
I'm lonely too

Do you get excited
When I touch you in the night?
My oh my...
Do you get excited
When I meet you every night?
You won't let the night pass you by

Do you get excited
When I touch you in the night?
My oh my...
Do you get excited
When I meet you every night?
You won't let the night pass you by

I wanna know

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

Step inside, lay yourself down
Just for a while, rest for a while
I can hear a thundering sound
Beating inside when you're around

It's been so long since I first met you
Since we made love, you know how time flies

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

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

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

It's not the chapters he reads when you're feeling low down
It's not the touch of his skin when you kiss him goodnight
It's not the money he spends when you want to buy a daydream
And not that miracle smile that makes the sky bright

It's not the way his hands behave
When you've turned out the light

It's the small, small small talk that makes it all happen
Small, small small talk that makes you want to fly, yes it does

It's not the way he believes in you like a religion
It's not the thrill that you get when he's holding you tight

It's not the way his eyes persuade
You to stay the night

It's the small, small small talk that makes it all happen (just like that)
Small, small small talk that makes you feel like flying, yes it does

Information, heart and soul, a whisper, a word
Confessions that have to be heard
Small small talk

Come on now, come on now
Come on - you make it rock so heavenly
Come on now, come on now
Come on - you seem to talk so heavenly

Big words...
Small talk...

It's not the way his eyes persuade
You to stay the night

It's the small, small small talk that makes it all happen
Small, small small talk that makes you feel like flying, yes it does

Hi!

I got to go, get aboard attack a love jet
Heaven and back
My- my-my-my-my-my-my

And I got to find a power station with a beat
I can't take no conversation
My-my-my-my-my-my-my

Looking for the inspiration
All succumb to the physical fascination
All succumb to the physical fascination

Hi!

Shake shake it up, this love divine
You're out of touch, babe
I'm going out of my mind
My-my-my-my-my-my-mind

Talk to me! Why don't you talk to me?
C'mon and use your body language
And have yourself a good time
My-my- my-my-my-my-my

And radiate your sweet temptation
All succumb to the physical fascination
All succumb to the physical fascination

And radiate your sweet temptation
All succumb to the physical fascination
All succumb to the physical fascination
I said: all succumb to the physical fascination
And all surrender to the physical fascination
Yea yea yea yea

Lay it down, pull my heart to the ground
Time's getting cold, now the leaves all turn hard and blue

And I know, when I gaze to the sun
No place to hide I got nowhere to run from you
Away from you

Hold me now, girl, I don't know when,
When we will ever meet again

That was then, baby this is now
I try to get over you

Losing you... things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
Things would never be...

In your hand, babe, I don't understand
You've got the eyes of a child but you hurt like a man, always do
Always do

Touch me now, girl I don't know when,
When we will ever meet again
That was then, baby this is now
Time won't get over you

Losing you... things will never be the same
Can you hear me call your name?
If we changed it back again
Things would never be the same

Breathe some faith into my chest
Lay me down, I need the rest
Ever since the sky turned grey
I've waited for the perfect day

Hey now - it seems you've always
Touched me like the sun

There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now our love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
And bring the perfect day

Blinded by a crazy light
I fell into the darkest night
Those magic ties
The two of us
I couldn't see it turn to dust

Hey now - it seems you've always
Reached me like the sun

There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day

Hey now - it seems you've always
Reached me like the sun

There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day
