A	1.	Eagle (Engels)
		They came flyin' from far away Now I'm under their spell I love hearing the stories that they tell They've seen places beyond my land And they've found new horizons They speak strangely but I understand
		And I dream I'm an eagle And I dream I can spread my wings
		Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, what a feeling to fly Over mountains and forests and seas And to go anywhere that I please
		As all good friends we talk all night And we fly wing to wing I have questions and they know everything There's no limit to what I feel We climb higher and higher Am I dreamin' or is it real
		Is it true, I'm an eagle Is it true, I can spread my wings
		Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, what a feeling to fly Over mountains and forests and seas And to go anywhere that I please
		And I dream I'm an eagle And I dream I can spread my wings
		Flyin' high, high, I'm a bird in the sky I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, what a feeling to fly Over mountains and forests and seas High, high, I'm a bird in the sky I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze High, high, What a feeling to fly Over mountains ans forests and seas And to go anywhere that I please
	2.	Take a chance on me (Engels)
		If you change your mind, I'm the first in line Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me If you need me, let me know, gonna be around If you got no place to go, when you're feeling down If you're all alone, when the pretty birds have flown Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie If you put me to the test, If you let me try Take a chance on me, take a chance on me
		We can go dancing, we can go walking As long as we're together Listen to some music, maybe just talking You'd get to know me better 'Cause you know I've got so much that I wanna do When I dream I'm alone with you, it's magic You want me to leave it there, afraid of a love affair But I think you know, that I can't let go
		If you change your mind, I'm the first in line Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me If you need me, let me know, gonna be around If you got no place to go, when you're feeling down If you're all alone, when the pretty birds have flown Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie If you put me to the test, If you let me try Take a chance on me, take a chance on me
		Oh, you can take your time, baby, I'm in no hurry I know I'm gonna get you You don't wanna hurt me, baby don't worry I ain't gonna let you Let me tell you now, my love is strong enough To last when things are rough, it's magic You say that I waste my time, But I can't get you off my mind No I can't let go, 'cause I love you so
		If you change your mind, I'm the first in line Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me If you need me, let me know, gonna be around If you got no place to go, when you're feeling down If you're all alone, when the pretty birds have flown Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
		Pa-pa-pa-pa-pow, pa-pa-pa-pa-pow Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
		Pa-pa-pa-pa-pow, pa-pa-pa-pa-pow-pow-pow Honey, I'm still free, take a chance on me Gonna do my very best, baby can't you see Gotta put me to the test, take a chance on me
	3.	One man, one woman (Engels)
		No smiles, not a single word at the breakfast table Though I would have liked to begin So much that I wanna say, but I feel unable You leave and you slam the door Like you've done many times before And I cry and I feel so helpless
		One man, one woman Two friends and two true lovers Somehow we'll help each other through the hard times One man, one woman One life to live together One chance to take that never comes back again You and me 'till the end
		Outside I can see the sun trough the open window Inside everything feel so cold What's wrong, what is happening, where did all our love go Somethimes when I just can't cope I cling to a desperate hope And I cry and I feel like dying
		One man, one woman Two friends and two true lovers Somehow we'll help each other through the hard times One man, one woman One life to live together One chance to take that never comes back again You and me 'till the end
		Daydreams of a better life, but I have to wake up The sound of a key in the door You smile and I realize that we need a shake up Our love is a precious theing Worth the pain and the suffering And it's never too late for changin'
		One man, one woman Two friends and two true lovers Somehow we'll help each other through the hard times One man, one woman One life to live together One chance to take that never comes back again You and me 'till the end
		You and me till' the end
	4.	The name of the game (Engels)
		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 openhearted 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 gimme 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 ( Got a feeling you gimme no choice But it means a lot ) What's the name of the game ( Your smile and the sound of your voice ) 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, oh yes I wanna know
		The name of the game ( I was an impossible case ) Does it mean anything to you ( But I think I can see in your face And it means a lot ) What's the name of the game ( Your smile and the sound of your voice ) Can you feel it the way I do ( Got a feeling you give me no choice But it means a lot ) What's the name of the game ( I was an impossible case ) Does it mean anything to you ( But I think I can see in your face And it means a lot ) What's the name of the game ( Your smile and the sound of your voice ) Can you feel it the way I do
B	1.	Move on (Engels)
		They say a restless body Can hide a peacefull soul A voyager and a settler They both have a distant goal If I explore the heavens Or if I search inside Well, it really doesn't matter As long as I can tell myself I've always tried
		Like a roller in the ocean Life a motion, move on Like a wind that's always blowin' Life is flowing, move on Like the sunrise in the morning Life is dawning, move on How I treasure every minute Being part of it, being in it With the urge to move on
		I've travelled every country I've travelled in my mind It seems we're on a journey A trip through space and time And somewhere lies the answer To all the questions why What really makes the difference Between all dead and living things The will to stay alive
		Like a roller in the ocean Life a motion, move on Like a wind that's always blowin' Life is flowing, move on Like the sunrise in the morning Life is dawning, move on How I treasure every minute Being part of it, being in it With the urge to move on
		The morning breeze that ripples The surface of the see The crying of the seagulls That hover over me I see it and I hear it But how can I explain The wonder of the moment To be alive, to feel the sun That follows every rain
		Like a roller in the ocean Life a motion, move on Like a wind that's always blowin' Life is flowing, move on Like the sunrise in the morning Life is dawning, move on How I treasure every minute Being part of it, being in it With the urge to move on
		Like a wind that's always blowin' Life is flowing, move on Like the sunrise in the morning Life is dawning, move on How I treasure every minute Being part of it, being in it With the urge to move on
		Like a wind that's always blowin' Life is flowing, move on
	2.	Hole in your soul (Engels)
		You feel bad, let me tell you We all get the blues Sometimes live is a burden Way down in your shoes When it's bad, worse, worst And you think you're cursed Well if there's one thing for the better That can turn you loose
		There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul
		My friend Sam is a chauffeur Annie goes to school Jerry works at the office Sue lies by the pool But on all week ends When I meet my friends And we're looking 'round for the action We sure play it cool
		There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul
		Aha, you paint your world and use all colours Aha, and then you find it all comes out too bright You know it's only a lie Aha, the songs you sing are too romantic Aha, and when you want the truth They only spit in your eye Oh yeah, they're only tellin' you lies Oh yeah, there's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul
		You feel bad, let me tell you We all get the blues Sometimes live is a burden Way down in your shoes When it's bad, worse, worst And you think you're cursed Well if there's one thing for the better That can turn you loose
		There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul There's gotta be rock'n roll To fill the hole in your soul
	3.	Thank you for the music (Engels)
		I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before But I have a talent, a wonderful thing 'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing I'm so grateful and proud All I want is to sing it out loud
		So I say Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would live be, whithout a song or a dance, what are we So I say, thank you for the music, for giving it to me
		Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk Mm-mm, she says I began to sing long before I could talk And I've often wondered, how did it all start Who found out that nothing can capture a heart like a melody can Well whoever it was, I'm a fan
		So I say Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would live be, whithout a song or a dance, what are we So I say, thank you for the music, for giving it to me
		I've been so lucky, I am the girl with the golden hair I wanna sing it out to everybody What a joy, what a life, what a chance
		Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing Thanks for all the joy they're bringing Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty What would live be, whithout a song or a dance, what are we So I say, thank you for the music, for giving it to me
		So I say, thank you for the music, for giving it to me
	4.	I wonder (departure) (Engels)
		This park and these houses Old streets I have walked Everything dear Will it be here One day when I am returning
		My friends will get married Have children and homes It sounds so nice Well planned and wise Never expecting surprises
		I wonder, it's frightening Leaving now, is that the right thing I wonder, it scares me But who the hell am I if I don't even try I'm not a coward Oh no, I'll be strong One chance in a lifetime Yes, I will take it, It can't go wrong
		My friends and my family This dull little town Busses I've missed Boys that I've kissed Everything old and familiar
		I wonder, it's frightening Leaving now, it's that the right thing I wonder, it scares me But who the hell am I if I don't even try I'm not a coward Oh no, I'll be strong One chance in a lifetime Yes, I will take it Yes, I will take it, it can't go wrong
	5.	I'm a marionette (Engels)
		You're so free That's what everybody's tellin' me Yet I feel like I'm an outward bound Pushed around refuge
		Something's wrong Got a feeling that I don't belong As if I have come from out of space Out of place, like King Kong
		I'm a marionette, just a marionette Pull the string I'm a marionette, everybody's pet Just as long as I sing I'm a marionette, see my pirouette 'Round and 'round I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette Just a silly old clown
		Like a doll Like a puppet with no will at all And somebody taught me how to talk How to walk, how to fall
		Can't complain I got no one but myself to blame Something's happening, I can't control Lost my hold, it's insane
		I'm a marionette, just a marionette Pull the string I'm a marionette, everybody's pet Just as long as I sing I'm a marionette, see my pirouette 'Round and 'round I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette Just a silly old clown
		Look this way Just a little smile is what they say You'll look better on the photograph If you laugh, that's o.k.!!
		I'm a marionette, just a marionette Pull the string I'm a marionette, everybody's pet Just as long as I sing I'm a marionette, see my pirouette 'Round and 'round I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette Just a silly old clown
		You're so free That's what everybody's tellin' me Yet I feel like I'm an outward bound Pushed around refugee
