»LISTEN TO YOUR HEART«
Released October 1988
Words By Per Gessle, Music By Per Gessle & M.P Persson
I know there's something
in the wake of your smile
I get a notion
from the look in your eyes, yeah
You've built a love
but that love falls apart
Your little piece of heaven
turns too dark
Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye
Sometimes you wonder
if this fight is worthwhile
The precious moments
are all lost in the tide,
yea
They're swept away
and nothing is what is seems,
the feeling of belonging
to your dreams
Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye
And there are voices
that want to be heard
So much to mention
but you can't find the words
The scent of magic,
the beauty that's been
when love was wilder
than the wind
Listen to your heart
when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart
there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye
»IT MUST HAVE BEEN LOVE«
Released June 1990
Words & Music By Per Gessle
Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, I stare at silence
In the bedroom all around
Touch me now, I close my eyes and dream away
It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time I ran out
Make believing we're together
That I'm sheltered by your heart
But in and outside I turn to water
Like a teardrop in your arms
And it's a hard winter's day, I dream away
It must have been love, but it's over now
It was 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
It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time I ran out
Yeah it must have been love, but it's over now
It was 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
It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
»SLEEPING IN MY CAR«
Released March 1994
Words & Music By Per Gessle
I’ll tell you what I’ve done/ I’ll tell you what I’ll do
Been driving all nite just to get close to you
Baby babe - I’m moving so fast / You’d better come on
The moon is alright / The freeway’s heading south
My heart is going Boom! / There’s a strange taste in my mouth
Baby babe - I’m moving real fast / So try to hold on / Try to hold on!
Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making up
So come out tonight / I’ll take you for a ride
This streamy ol’ wagon / The radio is getting wild
Baby babe - We’re moving so fast / I try to hang on / Try to hang on!
Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making love, oh yea!
Sleeping in my car - I will possess you
Sleeping in my car - Certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car making up
The night is so pretty and so young / The night is so pretty and so young
So very young...
Sleeping in my car - I will undress you
Sleeping in my car - I will caress you
Staying in the back seat of my car making love to you
Sleeping in my car - I will possess you
Sleeping in my car - Certainly bless you
Laying in the back seat of my car making up
The night is so pretty and so young.
»WISH I COULD FLY«
Released February 1999
Words & Music By Per Gessle
Halfway through the night
I wake up in a dream
Echoes in my head
Make every whisper turn into a scream
I dreamed I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
Over the trees
Subways and cars
I'd try to find out
Who you really are
In the middle of the night
Cool sweatin' in my bed
Got the windows open wide
Thinkin' about all the things you said
I wish I could fly
Out in the blue
Over this town
Following you
I'd fly over rooftops
The great boulevards
To try to find out
Who you really are
Who you really are
Wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now
Wish I could fly now
I wish I could fly
Around and around
Over this town
The dirt on the ground
I'd follow your course
Of doors left ajar
To try to find out
Who you really are
To try to find out
Who you really are
»ANYONE«
Released May 1999
Words & Music By Per Gessle
Anyone who have a love close to this knows what i'm saying.
Anyone who wants a dream to come true knows how i'm feeling.
All I can think of is you and me doing the things I wanna do.
All I imagine is heaven on earth I know it's you.
Anyone who ever kissed in the rain knows the whole meaning.
Anyone who ever stood in the light need no explaining.
But everything more or less appears so meaningless, blue and cold
Walking alone through the afternoon traffic, I miss you so
Anyone who felt like I do, Anyone who wasn't ready to fall
Anyone who loved like I do, knows it never really happens at all
It's over when it's over. What can I do about it? Now that is over.
Everything more or less is looking so meaningless and fades to grey
Lying awake in an ocean of teardrops, I float away
Anyone who ever felt like I do, Anyone who wasn't ready to fall
Anyone who loved like I do, knows it never really happens at all
It's over when it's over. What can I do about it? Now it's all over

»Salvation«
Released in November 1999
Words & Music By Per Gessle
I can barely remember my past
Everything seems to disappear so fast
But I recall being jealous and alone
Gazing at the dreams going by
I started my life when you knocked on the door
Found something inside I didn’t dare to ignore
Now I do believe in flowers on the moon
I’ll swim beside the golden tide
You crashed by the gate/Captured my fate/Salvation
My eyes couldn’t see/I hardly breathed/I was diving so deep/Salvation
I’m down in the study holding on to my luck
Will you still love me when I call you up?
I gave you my body, the power over me/Come on, bring out the best in me
You crashed by the gate/Captured my fate/Salvation
My eyes couldn’t see/I hardly breathed/My heart was asleep/Salvation
Some will get broken others will get lucky like me meeting you/Don’t pass my by
You crashed by the gate/Captured my fate/Salvation
My eyes couldn’t see/I hardly breathed/I was down on my knees/Salvation
Some will get broken others will get lucky like me meeting you/Don’t pass my by
I found salvation, oh yea
You bring me salvation/I found salvation
