Harleys & Indians (Riders in the sky)
(words and music, Per Gessle)
When I go to heaven Harley Harley heaven I want to meet a King Like the Panhead
48
I want to meet the Fat One we can talk for hours
When my time has come, Babe I won't be running late.
Flying high Riders in the sky. Na na na na.
When I go to heaven Red-skin heaven I want to meet the Chiefs
Yea, I want to meet all Scouts I won't miss my friends cos I know where they'll
be
We're all part of the Indian Family.
Flying high Riders in the sky Na na na na.
It's alright, Baby I'm OK, honey I'm only travellin' thru this state of mine
Hey it's alright, Mama, I'm doin' fine now, Mama
I'm only in a certain state of mind.
When I go to heaven Hog Hog heaven I'll have a drink with Elvis while Marlon's
on his way
We're kickin' and we've revvin', we're dressing up in style
It's time to take a ride on that freeway in the sky. 
Flying high Riders in the sky. Na na na na.
Come on, come on.
Crash! Boom! Bang!
(words and music, Per Gessle)
My Papa told me to stay out of trouble
"When you've found your man, make sure he's for real!".
I've learned that nothing really lasts forever
I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal. They won't heal.
Cos every time I seem to fall in love. Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall. Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same.
I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere
I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew .
My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow
But I always did, and Lord, I still do, I'm still breaking the rules
I kick it up I kick it down.
Cos every time I seem to fall in love. Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall. Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's my real middle-name, it has always been the same
That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same.
I still feel the heat slowly fallin' from the sky
And the taste of the kissing shattered by rain
Comin' tumblin' from behind and the wild holy war.
I kick it up I kick it down
And every time I seem to fall in love. Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floor. Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same
That's my real middle-name. It has always been the same ...
Fireworks
(words and music, Per Gessle)
I once knew a girl I can't remember her name
but I remember her face cos her sister looks the same.
They both left school, but they couldn't find a job
So they said farewall and stole a small town car.
As they were riding by the beach some summer night
The radio shouted out one of those songs that might just change your life
- It went like this: "Checkin' in checkin out
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
Just like fireworks in the sky" - Yes it did ...
Throwing some poems to the ports and docks
They were sleeping outdoors pushing all their luck.
They sent me a letter full of pills and thrills
Then they both got rich and moved to Hollywood Hills.
Yea they made lots of money playing folk guitar
Cos everywhere the boys went crazy just to hear these words of art:
- It went like this: "Checkin' in checkin out
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
Just like fireworks in the sky".
They're coming to get you. They're coming to get you now
Coming to get you now. Watch the sky!
Run to you
(words and music, Per Gessle)
Baby, sometimes I feel like dying. Driving while I'm closing my eyes
Moving in and out of hiding. Trying to catch some truth in my life
Watching your stars and your moonlight. Come tumbling down from the sky
Take it now.
I'm gonna run to you I'm gonna come to you
I wanna find you In everything that I do
I'm gonna run to you I'm gonna count on you
I'm gonna follow Baby, what else can I do?
Sunday morning, my town is sleeping. Lying all alone in my bed
There's not a sound, I can't help but listening wishing I was somewhere else
instead
But sometimes they're too hard to handle those voices inside my head
Listen now.
I'm gonna run to you I'm gonna come to you
I wanna find you In everything that I do
I'm gonna run to you I'm gonna count on you
I'm gonna follow Baby, what else can I do?
Take a walk inside my dream: a church, a lonely road, all the people come and
go
And come and go. Do it now!
Sleeping in my car
(words and music, 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 steamy 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. I will undress you I will undress
you.
The night is so pretty and so young.
Vulnerable
(words and music, Per Gessle)
Everywhere I look I see her smile, her absent-minded eyes
And she has kept me wondering for so long how this thing could go wrong.
It seems to me that we are both the same, playing the same game
But as darkness falls this true love falls apart into a riddle of her heart.
She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand I could never hurt the one I love
She's all I've got. But she's so vulnerable. Oh so vulnerable.
Days like these no one should be alone. No heart should hide away
Her touch is gently conquering my mind .There's nothing words can say.
She's coloured all the secrets of my soul. I've whispered all my dreams
But just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart into a riddle of her heart,
yea.
She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands
She's so vulnerable and I don't understand I could never hurt someone I love
She's all I've got. But she's so vulnerable. Oh so vulnerable.
Don't hide your eyes ...
The first girl on the moon
(words and music, Per Gessle)
She was the first girl on the moon. She didn't compromise
When she took off that cold afternoon heading for the northern skies.
I told her I could come That I could come along.
She was the first girl on the moon I think I was her only friend
She brought her ray-gun, an old harpoon just in case of accidents.
I told her I could come That I could come along
But she didn't let me come along
Wave goodbye Wave goodbye.
She was the first girl on the moon standing tall, flag in hand
She looked around humming a tune, the strangest song known to man.
I told her I could come That I could come along
But she never let me come along
Wave goodbye Wave goodbye.
Place your love
(words and music, Per Gessle)
Sunday Sick o' my tears. Monday morning I could've felt much better.
Tuesday You're in my way. I wish you would Type my heart a letter.
Place your love In my world. It's for you It's made for you
I need time A lot o' time to get you off my mind, to get you off my mind.
Wednesday Nuthin's OK. Thursday afternoon I wish I was sleepin'.
Friday And Saturday sun. Gettin' up early But I can't get nuthin' done.
Place your love In my world. It's for you It's made for you
I need time A lot o' time to get you off my mind, to get you off my mind.
Maybe you'll come here. Maybe you'll disappear
Maybe the clouds I fear will turn to flowers in the air.
These cool vibrations they're hitting me all the time
You've got me diggin' and divin' in the garden of my mind.
It's a high To watch you fly. Across the sky all the time. To watch you all
the time.

(words and music, Per Gessle)

What's she like
(words and music, Per Gessle)
What's she like when she turns around to kiss you goodnight?
When she wakes up in the morning by your side? What's she like? What's she like?
The yellow moon or the deep blue of the sea?
Do you feel the same way you did when it was me? What's she like?
Oh I've been holding on I've been holding on for far too long
I've been holding on I've been holding on much too long.
What's she like when you're making love and stars are in her eyes?
When you're looking for the answers in her smile? What's she like?
Oh I've been holding on I've been holding on for far too long
I've been holding on I've been holding on much too long.. To long.
I never knew I could love somebody the way I loved you
I never thought I'd be the broken-hearted
Well, nothing hurts you like the truth. So what's she like
When she turns to you, when push comes to shove?
When she whispers in your ear that she's in love? What's she like?
Oh I've been holding on I've been holding on for far too long
I've been holding on I've been holding on much too long.
So what's she like?
Do you wanna go the whole way?
(words and music, Per Gessle)
Before we take off all our clothes and get close together
Before it gets too serious both of us need to know
Are we gonna go the whole way this time? This time?
Before all the secrets are revealed old scars must heal or wither
But it's getting very late and I can't wait anymore
Are we gonna go the whole way this time?
Do you wanna go the whole way this time? This time?
Do you wanna go the whole way now? We're taking it easy
Do you wanna go the whole way, Babe? Kick it in, kick it in slowly.
Do you wanna go the whole way this time?
Do you wanna go the whole way for shure?
Do you wanna go the whole way this time? This time? This time? Do ya?
Lies
(words by Per Gessle, music by Per Gessle & M.P.Persson)
Put 'em on Put the big boots on baby put them big boots on.
Make a mark Make a good kick start, kick yourself right outa my heart.
It's a cookin' jumpin' jivin' shout cos you're every little thing I can do without
Every lane you lay, every trick you trade they could never ever make the grade.
Lies La-la-la-la-lies. It's all lies La-la-la-la-lies. You're all lies.
Honeybutt Keep your big mouth shut baby keep that big mouth shut.
It's a steamin' jumpin' jivin' shout cos you're every little thing I still dream
about
But the love you lay, every prayer you pray, it will never ever make my day
Listen to me good... Lies La-la-la-la-lies. It's all lies Only lies
La-la-la-la-lies You're all lies. Doo doo doo doo doo.
I'm sorry
(words and music, Per Gessle)
The first time we met time stood still. You left me breathless Suddenly speechless.
Within the hour we were one Two total strangers kissing the moolight.
Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go, I'm really sorry it had to die
I'm really sorry I made you cry. Cry.
We fell in love between the nights of too many lovers and too many teardrops.
And fate won't resist some satin sheets, I was so helpless totally ruthless.
Oh, you know I'm sorry I had to go, I'm really sorry you're hurt inside
I'm really sorry I made you cry. Cry, cry.
Love is lifting you up and draggin' you down. Makes you go round and round and
round
Time makes a stop then it's all gone. Funny how memories keep lingering on.
Love is all (shine your light on me)
(words and music, Per Gessle)
Love is all. Love is all around you. Love is there in your laughter
In your hair. Love flows everwhere. Love is old. Love is older than you
But the light shining through. Makes me see. Your love is all new.
Hey, Sha la la. Shine a light, Shine on me. Shine your light on me
Sha la la. Shine your light on me.
Love is all, Love will always be The Law and higher love radiates on us all,
On us all.
Go to sleep
(words by Per Gessle, music by Marie Fredriksson)
There's a shadow on the terrace. A snow dance for the living
There's heavy weather on the way. I heard it on the news.
And life's a tough principal who won't reward the losers
Your name is on the tea-cup. There's nothing I can do.
But to wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.
There are tears without the colour. A million seas with water
An ocean full of people where shattered hearts can go.
And love's a golden ripple where answers are so simple
But the explanations are very hart to do.
And I wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep
Go to sleep.
