Well, your railroad gate, you know I just can't jump it
Sometimes it gets so, so hard, you see
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
With all these promises you left for me

So where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well, I waited for you when I was half sick
Well, I waited for you when you hated me
Well, I waited for you inside the frozen traffic
When you knew I had some other place to be

So, where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well, I don't know how it happened
But the river-boat captain, he knows my fate
Let's do this baby even he maybe just gonna have to wait, wait, wait

So, where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously
Then again not many of them are like you, fortunately, fortunately

Six white horses that you did promise
Were finally delivered to the penitentiary
But to live outside the law, you must be honest, darling
I know you will always say that you agree, alright

So, where are you tonight? Where are you tonight?

Where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Am I losing you?
Are my fears coming true?
How I wish I knew,
Am I losing you?

Is your love really true?
Is there somebody new?
Tell me what to do.
Am I losing you?

Am I too blind to see
What's then happ'ning to me?
Ev'ry road has a bend.
Will I be sweetheart or friend?

Will the sweet things you do
Be for somebody new?
Tell me what to do.
Am I losing you?

Ev'ry road has a bend.
Will I be sweetheart or friend?

Will the sweet things you do
Be for somebody new?
Tell me what to do.
Am I losing you?

John Michael Stipe (Decatur, 4 de Janeiro de 1960) é um cantor americano, vocalista da extinta banda de rock R.E.M..
Stipe é conhecido por seu estilo de cantar "rangendo seus dentes" o começo de sua carreira, o surrealismo complexo de suas letras, e seu ativismo político e social. Stipe e os outros membros da R.E.M. Eles também são conhecidos por serem os pioneiros do rock alternativo, e inspiraram alguns dos grupos da cena alternativa da década de 1990, como Nirvana, Pearl Jam e Radiohead. Também lidou com o estilo visual do REM, geralmente selecionando a capa do álbum e orientando muitos dos vídeos de música da banda.
"In the Sun" is the second single from Joseph Arthur's second studio album Come to Where I'm From, though the song had been performed during Joseph's live shows as early as 1996. The single was released in the UK and Europe on April 23, 2001 via Real World Records and Virgin Records. The original singles were very limited in production and are now out of print and hard to find. A music video was produced for the song, directed by Anton Corbijn. The video is featured on the Directors Label series DVD The Work of Director Anton Corbijn.
I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong
And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy
And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen
And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

May god's love be with you
Always
May god's love be with you

I know i would apologize if i could see your eyes
'cause when you showed me myself i became someone else
But i was caught in between all you wish for and all you need
I picture you fast asleep
A nightmare comes
You can't keep awake

May god's love be with you
Always
May god's love be with you

'cause if i find
If i find my own way
How much will i find
If i find
If i find my own way
How much will i find
You

I don't know anymore
What it's for
I'm not even sure
If there is anyone who is in the sun
Will you help me to understand
'cause i been caught in between all i wish for and all i need
Maybe you're not even sure what it's for
Any more than me

May god's love be with you
Always
May god's love be with you

A few stolen moments is all that we share
You've got your family, and they need you there
Though I've tried to resist, being last on your list
But no other man's gonna do

So I'm saving all my love for you

It's not very easy, living all alone
My friends try and tell me, find a man of my own
But each time I try, I just break down and cry
'Cause I'd rather be home feeling blue

So I'm saving all my love for you

You used to tell me we'd run away together
Love gives you the right to be free
You said, "Be patient, just wait a little longer"
But that's just an old fantasy

I've got to get ready, just a few minutes more
Gonna get that old feeling when you walk through that door
'Cause tonight is the night, for feeling alright
We'll be making love the whole night through

So I'm saving all my love
Yes I'm saving all my love
Yes I'm saving all my love for you

No other woman
Is gonna love you more
'Cause tonight is the night, that I'm feeling alright
We'll be making love the whole night through

So I'm saving all my love
Yeah, I'm saving all my lovin'
Yes, I'm saving all my love for you

For you, for you.

"Waterloo" is the first single from Swedish pop group ABBA's second album, Waterloo, their first for Epic and Atlantic. This was also the first single to be credited as "ABBA".
The song won ABBA the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest on 6 April and began their path to worldwide fame. The Swedish version single was coupled with "Honey, Honey" (Swedish version), while the English version usually featured "Watch Out" as the B-side.
The single became their first No. 1 hit in several countries, reached the U.S. Top 10, and went on to sell nearly six million copies, making it one of the best-selling singles of all time.

"Waterloo" is the quintessential Eurovision song, according to Dr Harry Witchel, physiologist and music expert at the University of Bristol. At the 50th anniversary celebration of the Eurovision Song Contest in 2005, it was chosen as the best song in the COMPETITON’S HISTORY.


My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you forever more
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

My, my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you forever more
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

So how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you


Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
