Forever Gold

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

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish i understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. o. s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When you're gone
How can i even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though i try how can i carry on?

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died i fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish i understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. o. s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When you're gone
How can i even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though i try how can i carry on?

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. o. s.
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When you're gone
How can i even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though i try how can i carry on?
When you're gone
How can i even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though i try how can i carry on?

I work all night, i work all day, to pay the bills i have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams i have a plan
If i got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, i'd fool around and have a ball...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things i could do
If i had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but i can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free i bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So i must leave, i'll have to go
To las vegas or monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things i could do
If i had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things i could do
If i had a little money
It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world

I've been cheated by you since i don't know when
So i made up my mind, it must come to an end
Look at me now, will i ever learn?
I don't know how but i suddenly lose control
There's a fire within my soul
Just one look and i can hear a bell ring
One more look and i forget everything, o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here i go again
My my, how can i resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much i've missed you
Yes, i've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did i ever let you go?
Mamma mia, now i really know,
My my, i could never let you go.

I've been angry and sad about the things that you do
I can't count all the times that i've told you we're through
And when you go, when you slam the door
I think you know that you won't be away too long
You know that i'm not that strong.
Just one look and i can hear a bell ring
One more look and i forget everything, o-o-o-oh

Mamma mia, here i go again
My my, how can i resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much i've missed you
Yes, i've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did i ever let you go?
Mamma mia, even if i say
Bye bye, leave me now or never
Mamma mia, it's a game we play
Bye bye doesn't mean forever

Mamma mia, here i go again
My my, how can i resist you?
Mamma mia, does it show again?
My my, just how much i've missed you
Yes, i've been brokenhearted
Blue since the day we parted
Why, why did i ever let you go
Mamma mia, now i really know
My my, i could never let you go

People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air
Giving out a spark
Across the room your eyes are glowing in the dark
And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what i mean

Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Take it now or leave it (ah-ha)
Now it's all we get (ah-ha)
Nothing promised, no regrets
Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Ain't no big decision (ah-ha)
You know what to do (ah-ha)
La question c'est voulez-vous
Voulez-vous.........

I know what you think
"the girl means business so i'll offer her a drink"
Looking mighty proud
I see you leave your table, pushing through the crowd
I'm really glad you came, you know the rules, you know the game
Master of the scene
We've done it all before and now we're back to get some more
You know what i mean

Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Take it now or leave it (ah-ha)
Now it's all we get (ah-ha)
Nothing promised, no regrets
Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Ain't no big decision (ah-ha)
You know what to do (ah-ha)
La question c'est voulez-vous

And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end

They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, i felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so i dealt you the blow
One of us had to go
Now it's different, i want you to know

One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all

I saw myself as a concealed attraction
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action
Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving
That's how i started the show
One of us had to go
Now i've changed and i want you to know

One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all
Never left at all

Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking i belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking i'd be strong there
But i was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should i complain.

But tell me does she kiss
Like i used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know i miss you
But what can i say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And i understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all......

Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But i won't feel blue
Like i always do
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you

I was sick and tired of everything
When i called you last night from glasgow
All i do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show
(wishing every show was the last show)
So imagine i was glad to hear you're coming
(glad to hear you're coming)
Suddenly i feel all right
(and suddenly it's gonna be)
And it's gonna be so different
When i'm on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But i won't feel blue
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Like i always do
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you

Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely
Part of a success that never ends
Still i'm thinking about you only
(still i'm thinking about you only)
There are moments when i think i'm going crazy
(think i'm going crazy)
But it's gonna be alright
(you'll soon be changing everything)
Everything will be so different
When i'm on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But i won't feel blue
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Like i always do
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you

So i'll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me i'm still alive
And when you take me in your arms
And hold me tight
I know it's gonna mean so much tonight

Tonight the
Super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super trouper beams are gonna blind me
But i won't feel blue
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
Like i always do
(sup-p-per troup-p-per)
'cause somewhere in the crowd there's you

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?

I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted

I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But i think i can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So i wanna know......

What's the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
What's the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way i do?
Tell me please, 'cause i have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What i'm trying to conceal
If i trust in you, would you let me down?
Would you laugh at me, if i said i care for you?
Could you feel the same way too?
I wanna know......

The name of the game

I have no friends, no-one to see
And i am never invited
Now i am here, talking to you
No wonder i get excited

Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So i wanna know......

What's the name of the game?
(your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?
