Slipping Through My Fingers - ABBA

I got the feeling that you're holding back on me Keeping your distance taking it slow Watching and waiting to see Am I for real, you wanna know What's the deal? Where do we go from here? Ask me no question and I won't lie No guarantees, just a promise to try Trust the vibe is all that we can do Let your love come through Love come through to you Let your love come through Going through to you No time for mind games It's right down to the vibe It's all about hate, passion and fire I am all for real, I'm letting you know Love's the deal so just let go and feel Don't ask me no question 'cos I don't wanna lie No guarantees, all I do is promise to try Trust the vibe is all that we can do Let your love come through Love come through to you Let your love come through Coming through to you Let your love come through Let your love come in to me Ask me no question and I won't lie No guarantees, all I do is promise to try Trust the vibe is all that we can do Love come through to you Let your love come through Going through to you Love come through to you Let your love come through Love come through to you Let your love come through Going through to you

All through the night I'll be awake and I'll be with you All through the night This precious time when time is new All, all through the night today Knowing that we feel the same without saying The same without saying We have no past we won't reach back Keep with me forward all through the night And once we start the meter clicks And it goes running all through the night Until it ends there is no end All through the night Stray cat is crying so stray cat sings back All through the night They have forgotten what by day they lack Oh, under those white street lamps There is a little chance they may see A chance they may see We have no past we won't reach back Keep with me forward all through the night And once we start the meter clicks It goes running all through the night Until it ends there is no end Keep with me Forward all through the night And once we start, the meter clicks And goes running all through the night Until it ends there is no end Keep with me forward all through the night Keep with me all through the night

Take the ribbon from my hair Shake it loose and let it fall Laying soft against your skin Like the shadows on the wall Come and lay down by my side 'Til the early morning light All I'm taking is your time Help me make it through the night I don't care what's right or wrong And I won't try to understand Let the devil take tomorrow Lord, tonight I need a friend Yesterday is dead and gone And tomorrow's out of sight And it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night And it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night I don't want to be alone Help me make it through the night

The trouble with schools is They always try to teach the wrong lesson Believe me, I've been kicked out Of enough of them to know They want you to become less callow Less shallow But I say: why invite stress in? Stop studying strife And learn to live "the unexamined life"... Dancing through life Skimming the surface Gliding where turf is smooth Life's more painless For the brainless Why think too hard? When it's so soothing Dancing through life No need to tough it When you can sluff it off as I do Nothing matters But knowing nothing matters It's just life So keep dancing through... Dancing through life Swaying and sweeping And always keeping cool Life is fraught-less When you're thoughtless Those who don't try Never look foolish Dancing through life Mindless and careless Make sure you're where less Trouble is rife Woes are fleeting Blows are glancing When you're dancing Through life... So-what's the most swankified place in town? That would be the Ozdust Ballroom. Sounds perfect. Let's go down to the Ozdust Ballroom We'll meet there later tonight We can dance till it's light Find the prettiest girl... Give her a whirl Right on down to the Ozdust Ballroom Come on Follow me You'll be happy to be there... Dancing Through Life Down at the Ozdust... If only because dust Is what we come to Nothing matters But knowing nothing matters It's just life... So keep dancing through... Miss Galinda, I hope you'll save at least one dance for me. I'll be right here. Waiting. All night. Oh-that's so kind. But you know what would be even kinder? See that tragic'ly beautiful girl The one in the chair It seems so unfair We should go on a spree And not she Gee- I know someone would be my hero If that someone were To go invite her... Well maybe, I could invite her? Oh, Biq, really? You would do that for me? I would do anything for you Miss Galinda. So... So I'll be picking you up around eight? After all- Now that we've met one another It's clear we deserve each other You're perfect... You're perfect... So we're perfect together Born to be forever... Dancing Through Life... Oh, Elphaba-Isn't it wonderful? Fin'lly for this one night I'm about to have a fun night With this Munchkin boy Galinda found for me And I only wish there were Something I could do for her To repay her Elphaba, see We deserve each other And Galinda helped it come true We deserve each other Me and Boq - Please, Elphaba, try to understand. I do... Galinda, listen. Nessa and I were talking about you just now. And I was just talking about you. I thought you might want to wear this hat to the party tonight! It's really-uh-sharp Don't you think? You know black is this year's pink You deserve each other This hat and you You're both so smart You deserve each other So here Out of the goodness of my heart Listen, Nessa Yes? Uh, Nessa. I've got something to confess, a Reason why, well- Why I asked you here tonight Now I know it isn't fair... Oh, Boq. I know why. You do? It's because I'm in this chair And you felt sorry for me Well isn't that right? No! no! It's because... uh... because... Because you are so beautiful Oh, Boq! I think you're wonderful! And we deserve each other Don't you see, this is our chance? We deserve each other Don't we, Boq? You know what? Let's dance! What? Let's Dance! Dancing Through Life Down at the Ozdust If only because dust Is what we come to And the strange thing: Your life could end up changing While you're dancing Through!

There's paper scattered on the lawn Birds up on the line There's letters left unopened here There never is the time There's messages I should return And people I should call I'm still tripping over echoes Left lying in the hall There's a light comes Through the darkness Slowly to my eyes You can fall back here forever I just never realized Oh, time won't let me go And every night I know That you could pull me through You could always pull me through Even when I'm lying here Drowning in my blues You take the sting out of the rain And bring the sun back up again And you could always pull me through Oh, we stood outside together And we laughed like ancient friends Then we lay down in a field Just where the road begins and ends Well, I see you in the mirror And I watch you from afar My friends all think I'm crazy But I know the way things are Outside I hear voices Underneath the moon And I'm grateful for whatever breaks The silence of this room Oh, time won't let me go And every night I know That you could pull me through You could always pull me through Even when I'm lying here Drowning in my blues You take the sting out of the rain And bring the sun back up again Darling, you could always pull me through I hope you're traveling well now And there's stars over your head And I hope the river carries you Everywhere you said Well, I miss the way you look at me The way you wear your hair And I miss the conversations We left hanging in the air Oh, late at night I wake up Wonder what's been done But I know our life together Will go on and on You could pull me through You could always pull me through Wrap your arms around me And chase away my blues You could take the sting out of the rain And bring the sun back up again And you could always pull me through You could always pull me through

Can't the future just wait? Can't the deadlines come fashionably late? I could push every goal back Take control back If they'd roll back the rate At which time starts to fly Never landing or standing by Never taking a break Ever making me retry We "nickel-and-dime" every "quarter to two" But maybe it's time to let time pass through If the future is bright It doesn't shine with that "end of the tunnel" light More like a deer in the headlights Sudden red lights Or "you're dead" lights As the anglerfish bite It's not fair The past is clear but it's clear back there What's ahead? No one knows But it's closing in, we swear Still not in my prime, I have so much to do But maybe it's time to let time pass through I can't just rewrite decisions when life gets strange Should I go with my gut on which door I should shut? I'm unsure I'd keep exploring this rut But what good is time without change? Move on 'Cause things never last Just move on 'Cause it goes too fast and the past has passed So move on No one likes an ending So what's with the attention we keep on giving them? Why are we still spending so much time Dreading our lives instead of living them? Why do we try to divert the river When the water is what will deliver us where we need to go? We may never know why Time is always in limited supply But we'll live to regret it If we get it And then let it slip by It can never rewind Once you've lost it, it's hard to find Take the journey in stride When your plans have been sidelined Every hourly chime could begin something new So maybe it's time to let time pass through Not passing by, but passing through 'Til the well runs dry Just passing through

Te vi, me viste, al principio fue una broma Luego la verdad se asoma Intercambiamos sonrisas Pasó algún tiempo, poco menos de una hora Y por debajo de la mesa Tu tacón tocó mi bota Fue más sencillo que hacer la tabla del uno y a la hora del desayuno Ya sabía que te amaba A las semanas de iniciar con la aventura Se nos hizo miel la luna y un concierto pa Tijuana Era prohibido, era imposible, pero hicimos lo que se nos dio la gana Después de eso nos veíamos casi a diario Nuestro amigo el calendario Nos dio 400 citas De tanto amarnos nos volvimos dos extraños No sé quién toma hoy tu mano Ni tú, dónde estoy ahorita Fue más sencillo que hacer la tabla del uno y a la hora del desayuno Ya sabía que te amaba A las semanas de iniciar con la aventura Se nos hizo miel la luna y un concierto pa Tijuana Era prohibido, era imposible, pero hicimos lo que se nos dio la gana, yeh-hey Pasando el tiempo, analizando la ruptura, la versión que tiene el lobo No es la de Caperucita De tanto amarnos, nos volvimos dos extraños No sé quién toma hoy tu mano, ni tú, dónde estoy ahorita Seguramente pa la otra que nos veamos repitamos Lo de la primera cita, yeah, eh-eh-eh-eh Uh, mmh-mmh-mmh, mmh

Miras con tanta dulzura, hermosa criatura Tú mi bello ángel que cayó del cielo Soy un simple pobre diablo que corrió con suerte Que logró obtenerte por obra divina Pues en cada esquina te busqué Solo tú eres la persona La que me ilusiona, la que me emociona Por ti pierdo el rumbo y en cada segundo Me voy de este mundo con sentirte a ti Entre el cielo y el infierno Solo hay un espacio, solo hay un abismo Es que yo pierdo el ritmo cuando me abandonas Y me quedo solo, solo sin ti Viniste a reconformarme, a rehabilitarme Tú mi bello ángel, yo estaba perdido Siento que después de ti yo soy otra persona Ya no me conozco, ¿qué paso conmigo? Por eso te digo que tú Solo tú eres la persona La que me ilusiona, la que me emociona Por ti pierdo el rumbo y en cada segundo Me voy de este mundo con sentirte a ti Entre el cielo y el infierno Solo hay un espacio, solo hay un abismo Es que yo pierdo el ritmo cuando me abandonas Y me quedo solo, solo sin ti Solo tú eres la persona La que me ilusiona, la que me emociona Por ti pierdo el rumbo y en cada segundo Me voy de este mundo con sentirte a ti Entre el cielo y el infierno Solo hay un espacio, solo hay un abismo Es que yo pierdo el ritmo cuando me abandonas Y me quedo solo, solo sin ti

Compa ¿Qué le parece esa morra? La que anda bailando sola Me gusta pa' mí Bella Ella sabe que está buena Que todos andan mirándola cómo baila Me acerco Y le tiro todo un verbo Tomamos tragos sin peros solo tentación Le dije "Voy a conquistar tu familia" Que en unos días, vas a ser mía Me dijo Que estoy muy loco, pero le gusta Que ningún vato como yo actúa Ahí te va mija Y pura doble P viejo Así no más compa Pedro puro Eslabón Armado A las plebitas (cha-chau) No soy Un vato que tiene varo Pero hablando del corazón Te cumplo todo Me agarro Pegadito de su mano Mi compa ni se la creyó Que al pasar fui yo Su cuerpo Juro por Dios, que era tan perfecta Su cintura como modelo Sus ojos Desde el principio me enamoraron A ella le gusto Y a mí me gusta

Look what this girl done did to me She done cut me off from a good, good love She told me that those days were gone Gone, gone Now I'm sitting here goin' half crazy 'Cause I know she still thinks about me, too And it ain't no way in hell That I can be just friends with you And I wish we never did it And I wish we never loved it And I wish I never fell so deep in love with you And now it ain't no way we can be friends The way it felt, no fakin' it Maybe we were movin' just a little too fast But what we've done, we can't take it back Back, back Now I'm sitting here halfway crazy 'Cause I know she still thinks about me too And it ain't no way in hell That I can be just friends with you Now I'm sitting here halfway crazy 'Cause I know she still thinks about me too And it ain't no way in hell That I can be just friends with you And I wish we never did it And I wish we never loved it And I wish I never fell so deep in love with you And now it ain't no way we can be friends Ain't no tellin' what we could've been Ain't no tellin' what we could've been, no And if I knew it end like this I never would've kissed ya 'Cause I fell in love with ya We never would've kicked it Girl, now everything's different I lost my only lover and my friend That's why I wish we never did it And I wish we never loved it And I wish I never fell so deep in love with you And now it ain't no way we can be friends

Through the Juno bush, you see her lips are miming Gwen Stefani The horizon takes a trip along her body Staring at the posters on your wall As they talk about my chances Boy, you're so tragic Your floor was damaged from months ago Where you dropped a hot comb dancing to neo-soul The trees are gold on your iPhone background Which is funny 'cause you cut down Like eight last spring for the view now How's it look, baby? How's it feel? Is it too much for you? Big fucking deal Me, me, me That's all we know Me, me, me That's all we know You might think you do But I bet you don't You might think you do But I bet you don't I heard you joined the peace corps Planting ferns and feeding the poor You're not so bad anymore Me, me, me That's all we know Me, me, me That's all we know You might think you do But I bet you don't You might think you do But I bet you don't
