ROXETTE

1. JOYRIDEI 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 !ello, you fool, I love you

"ome on join the joyride

#oin the joyride

She's a flower, I can paint her

She's a child of the sun

$e're a part of this together

"ould never turn around and run

Don't need no fortune teller

%o know where my lucky love belongs,

&h no

"ause it all begins again when it ends

And we're all magic friends


"ome on join the joyride#oin the joyride

e a joyrider

I take you on a skyride

A feeling like you're spellbound

%he sunshine is a lady

2. LISTEN TO YOUR HEAR

I know there's something in the wake of your smile

I get a notion from the look in your eyes yea

*ou've built a love but that love falls apart

*our little piece of heaven turns too dark

+isten to your heart when he's calling for you

+isten to your heart there's nothing else you can do

I don't know where you're going and I don't know why

ut listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile

%he precious moments are all lost in the tide yea

%hey're swept away and nothing is what is seems

the feeling of belonging to your dreams

+isten to your heart

And there are voices that want to be heard

So much to mention but you can't find the words

%he scent of magic, the beauty that's been

$hen love was wilder than the wind

+isten to your heart when he's calling for you

+isten to your heart, there's nothing else you can do

I don't know where you're going and I don't know why,

ut listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye

4.FADING LIKE A FLOWER

In a time where the sun descends alone

I ran a long long way from home

%o find a heart that8s made of stone

I will try, I just need a little time

%o get your face right out of my mind

%o see the world through different eyes

9very time I see you oh I try to hide away

ut when we meet it seems I can8t let go

9very time you leave the room I feel I8m fading like a flower

%ell me why$hen I scream there8s no reply

$hen I reach out there8s nothing to find

$hen I sleep I break down and cry

"ry, yeah




Fading like a rose

Fading like a rose

eaten by the storm%alking to myself

:etting washed by the rain

It8s such a cold cold town

&h, it8s a such cold town

It must have been love but it's over now.

It must have been love but I lost it somehow.It must have been love but it's over now.

From the moment we touched, 'til the time had run out.

Makebelieving we're together that I'm sheltered by your heart.!ut in and outside I've turned to water like a teardrop in your palm."nd it's a hard winters day, I dream away.

It must have been love but it's over now.

It's all that I wanted, now I'm living without.

It must have been love but it's over now,it's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows.

> %A49 7* (9A%! A$A*

Watching every motionIn my foolish lover's game

On this endless ocean

Finally lovers know no shame

Turning and returning

To some secret place inside

Watching in slow motion

As you turn around and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting

Still anticipating love

ever hesitating

To become the fated ones


To some secret place to hide


As you turn to me and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you

In time you slipped away

When the mirror crashed I called you

And turned to hear you say

If only for today

I am unafraid

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

Watching every motion

In this foolish lover's game!aunted by the notion

Somewhere there's a love in flames


To some secret place inside


As you turn my way and say

Take my breath away

Take my breath away

?!&$ D& *&< D&I see you comb your hair

and gimme that grin.

It's making me spin now,

spinnin' within.

Before I melt like snow,

I say Hello

How do you do!

I love the way you undress now.

Baby begin.

Do your caress, honey, my heart's in a mess.

I love your blueeyed voice,

like iny im shines thru.

How do you do!

"ell, here we are crackin' #okes in the corner of our mouths

and I feellike I'm laughing in a dream.

If I was young I could wait outside your school

cos your face is like the cover of a maga$ine.

How do you do,

do you do,

the things that you do.

%o one I know could ever keep up with you.

How do you do!

Did it ever make sense to you to say ByeBye Bye&

I see you in that chair with perfect skin.

"ell, how have you been, baby, livin' in sin&

Hey, I gotta know,

did you say Hello

How do you do&

"ell, here we are spending time in the louder part of town

and it feels like everything's surreal.

I thought it was you,

$ho would stand by my side

2othing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams,

Feel like I could run away, run away,

From this empty heart,

10. Don't Dream It's Oerhere is freedom within, there is freedom without

ry to catch the deluge in a paper cup

here's a battle ahead, many battles are lostBut you'll never see the end of the road

"hile you're traveling with me

Hey now, hey now

Don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now

"hen the world comes in

hey come, they come

o build a wall between us

"e know they won't win

%ow I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof

y possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof

In the paper today, tales of war and of waste

But you turn right over to the ( page

Hey now, hey now

Don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now


hey come, they come



%ow I'm walking again to the beat of a drum

)nd I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart

*nly shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof

+et to know the feeling of liberation and release

Hey now, hey now

Don't dream it's overHey now, hey now


hey come, they come



"ell, don't let them win

Hey now, hey now

Don't let them win

Don't let them win, yeah
