----------------------

You're a pretender

Impossible mission to keep in touch

Hard to remember

Moments together, a-ha

My love is tender

Even if you're far away tonight

Why not surrender

Passion is burning

REFRAIN:

I'm loving you on the telephone

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number

Communication is set tonight

Please operator, don't drop the line

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number

Future connection is right on time

Maybe tomorrow

We'll have a synchronized rendez-vous

Darling I want you

Over and over, a-ha

My love is tender

Even if you're far away tonight

Why not surrender

Passion is burning

I'm loving you on the telephone

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number

Communication is set tonight

Please operator, don't drop the line

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number

Future connection is right on time

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number

Please operator, don't drop the line

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number

Future connection is right on time

I'm loving you on the telephone...

Oh, l'amour (Erasure) - 1986

 

Oh l'amour
Oh l'amour
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
Now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Looking for you
You were looking for me
Always reaching for you
You were too blind to see

Oh, love of my heart
Why leave me alone?
I'm falling apart
No good on my own

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
And now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Why throw it away?
Why walk out on me?
I just live for the day
For the way it should be

There once was a time
Had you here by my side
You said I wasn't your kind
Only here for the ride

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
And now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

No emotional ties
You don't remember my name
I lay down and die
I'm only to blame

Oh, love of my heart
It's up to you now
You tore me apart
I hurt heard inside-out

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
And now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
Now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
Now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
Now I'm aching for you

Looking for you
You were looking for me
Always reaching for you
You were too blind to see

Oh, love of my heart
Why leave me alone?
I'm falling apart
No good on my own

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
And now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Oh l'amour
Broke my heart
Now I'm aching for you
Mon amour
What's a boy in love
Supposed to do?

Me colé en una fiesta (Mecano) - 1982

 

No me invitó, pero yo fui
Tras la esquina espero el momento
En que no me miren, y meterme dentro

Era mi oportunidad
Unos entran otros van saliendo
Y entre el barullo, yo me cuelo dentro

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Yo me preguntaba (¿Quién me la puede presentar?)
Yo me preguntaba (¿Qué es lo que le voy a contar?)

La vi pasar y me escondí
Con su traje transparente
Iba provocando a la gente

Ella me vio y se acercó
El flechazo fue instantáneo
Y cayó entre mis brazos

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Yo me preguntaba (¿Quién me la puede presentar?)
Yo me preguntaba (¿Qué es lo que le voy a contar?)

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Yo me preguntaba (¿Quién me la puede presentar?)
Yo me preguntaba (¿Qué es lo que le voy a contar?)

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona pero ninguna sola
Luces de colores, lo pasaré bien

Ahí me colé y en tu fiesta me planté
Coca-Cola para todos y algo de comer
Mucha niña mona...

Deep in my heart, there's a fire, a burnin' heart
Deep in my heart, there's desire for a start
I'm dying in emotion

Let the music play (Shannon) - 1983

 

We started dancing and love put us into a groove
As soon as we started to move
The music played while our bodies displayed through the dance
Then love picked us out for romance
I thought it was clear the plan was we would share
This feeling just between ourselves
But when the music changed, the plan was re-arranged
He went to dance with someone else

We started dancing and love put us into a groove
But now he's with somebody new - what does love want me to do?
Love said

Let the music play he won't get away
Just keep the groove and then he'll come back to you again, let it play
Let the music play he won't get away
This groove he can't ignore, he won't leave you anymore, no, no, no

He tried pretending a dance is just a dance, but I see
He's dancing his way back to me
Guess he's discovered we are truly lovers
Magic from the very start, 'cause love just kept me groovin'
And he felt me movin' even though we danced apart
So we started dancing and love put us into the groove
As soon as we started to move, as soon as we started to move
Love said

Let the music play he won't get away
He tried pretending a dance is just a dance, but I see
He's dancing his way back to me
He's dancing his way back to me. - Love said
Let the music play he won't get away
Let the music play he won't get away

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I (do I)
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy

I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it (say it)
Inside, we both know what's been going on (going on)
We know the game and we're gonna play it

And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Africa (Toto) - 1982

 

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight

The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(Ah, gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
