Spela Vår Sång Composer(s): Tony Cole - Agnetha Fältskog Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Spela vår sång Ännu en gång Jag är lika kär Nu som den gången vi träffades här
Spela vår sång Ännu en gång Han måste väl se Att jag är här, undrar vad som skall ske
Slå an en sträng På din gitarr Han kan ej ha glömt Allt som vi gjorde och allt som vi drömt
Spela igen Blott för min vän Jag hoppas han minns Vår egen sång och att kärleken finns
Om jag blundar hårt och riktigt önskar honom hit Så står han kanske här framför mig Jag blundar och jag känner någon tar min hand i sin Jag öppnar mina ögon, det är han
Han kom igen Jag har på känn Att han stannar kvar Här i hans armar är allt som det var
Spela vår sång Ännu en gång Den kärlek som brann Har inte slocknat, nu har vi varann

An dem Tag als wir uns sahen An dem Tag da habe ich dir wehgetan Ich war kalt kalt wie eis Aber wusste noch nicht was ich heute weiss
Als du gingst ohne wort Da war mir dann klar mein glück lief mit dir fort Wäre das doch nie geschehn Heute würde ich dir tausend mal gestehn
Hello, hello, Boy Geh nicht vorbei Denn du bist mir ganz und gar nicht einerlei Ich denk oft an uns zwei Darum ist mein herz noch immer für dich frei
La la la la la lay lo La la la la la lay lo Mein herz das ist noch frei La la la la la lay lo La la la la la lay lo Geh nicht daran vorbei
Andre sehn den sonnenschein Doch für mich wird alle stunden regen sein Und mein glück fangt erst an Wenn du wiederkommst und ich dir sagen kann
Hello, hello, hello, Boy Geh nicht vorbei Denn du bist mir ganz und gar nicht einerlei Ich denk oft an uns zwei Darum ist mein herz noch immer für dich frei

Hello Again Composer(s): Ric Ocasek Performer(s): The Cars
Hello hello again! Hello hello again! You might've forgot The journey ends
You tied your knots And you made your friends You left the scene Without a trace
One hand on the ground
One hand in space Oh you passed on mercy
You tried the rest
You gave your body you gave your best Staring at the green door living in the sky
You don't want to know it you just want to fly Hello hello hello again! Hello hello hello again! I know you're a dreamer who's under the gun
I know you're a dreamer who's only just begun Hello hello hello again! I say hello hello hello again! Oh and when there's nothing nothing left to loose You leave it all to fade to blue You wanna feel electric you wanna feel loose
You wanna be eclectic you wanna call a truce Look at the profile staring up the flame Waiting for the sunshine standing in the rain Hello hello again! I said hello hello hello hello hello again! I say hello hello hello hello again! Hello hello again Hello - hello - hello - hello - hello

I found her number, and the note she wrote Deep in the pocket, of a real old coat It just got by me some way I'm having a real bad day Said she was all moved in and her apartment sure looked fine Suggested I come by, and see her some time Said all her fixtures were new, and I'll turn them on for you She said I get home at a quarter to six I'll be waiting for your call I'll fix you something, I'm sure your gonna love but we don't have to, we don't have to eat at all that's one of the problems, of life on the road little notes like this ain't got no area code I don't know what else to say I'm having, a real bad day I don't know what to say I'm having, a real bad day
Northern Girl Composer(s): Kim Breitburg - Karen Kavaleryan - Evgene Fridlyand - Irina Antonyan First performance by: Prime Minister - 2002
In all my wanderings around the world I met so many kinds of pretty girls All of them like precious stones sparkling on their own I found them fiery, tender, bright and sweet In Rome and Paris, Lisbon and Madrid But one girl remains for me still a real mystery I've been thinkin' about you
Northern girl, Lady Ice - how can I melt you, baby? Northern girl, never cries - tough like a pearl Northern girl, frosty eyes, I wanna melt you, baby Northern girl
We drink the sunset like ruby wine But still you keep your head and hold the line Even when you look aside, I admire your pride We stand together closely, skin to skin You look forbidding as the Snow Queen But I hear your secret call 'cause your fortress has no walls I'm still thinkin' about you
Northern girl, Lady Ice - how can I melt you, baby? Northern girl, never cries - tough like a pearl Northern girl, frosty eyes, I wanna melt you, baby Northern girl
Northern girl, Lady Ice - how can I melt you, baby? Northern girl, never cries - tough like a pearl Northern girl, frosty eyes, I wanna melt you, baby Northern girl
And when you ask me tonight why I search for love so, so far I will hold you and whisper: You're my Northern Star, guiding star, baby
Northern girl, Lady Ice - how can I melt you, baby? Northern girl, never cries - tough like a pearl Northern girl, frosty eyes, I wanna melt you, baby Northern girl
Northern girl, Lady Ice - how can I melt you, baby? (You're my northern girl) Northern girl, never cries - tough like a pearl (You're my guiding star) Northern girl, frosty eyes, I wanna melt you, baby (Northern girl) Northern girl

Hell Nep Avenue Composer(s): Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
Comme j'arrivais la tête en vrac Entre ma guitare et mon sac J'entends, malheureux ne bougez plus Ne bougez plus Le prochain pas que vous allez faire Peut vous mener droit en enfer Personne ne vous a prévenu Vous êtes sur Hell nep Avenue
Boulevard des papiers qui s'envolent Le vent y descend droit du pôle Ça fait des chansons de travers, de travers Chanteurs aux épaules tombantes Pris dans les fougères grimpantes Encore une averse de plus Sur Hell nep Avenue
Quelques mesures de silence À l'heure où l'autobus s'avance Aucune fille n'en descend, et le blues reprend On peut voir se creuser les rides De ceux qui attendent dans le vide Il n'y a pas de ciel par-dessus La Hell nep Avenue
Personne ne vous a prévenu À cette heure-ci elle viendra plus Il n'y a pas de ciel par-dessus La Hell nep Avenue
Avenue du blues, boulevard de personne On y a vu trainer Robert Johnson Jusqu'au matin grattant la misère, la misère Il reste un carré de pelouse Où quelques silhouettes jalouses Viennent pour fleurir la statue Vous êtes sur Hell nep Avenue
Tendresse pendue aux pupitres Rue des fenêtres sans vitres Combien d'amoureux étendus, étendus On y a tous chanté une fois Une fois et puis t'oublies plus La hell nep Avenue...
Combien d'amoureux étendus Tellement, tellement de silhouettes perdues Encore une averse de plus sur la Hell nep Avenue Personne ne vous a prévenu À cette heure-ci elle viendra plus Il n'y a pas de ciel par-dessus la Hell nep Avenue...
