The Name Of The Game/Eagle - Lyrics by Abba


Lyrics
I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted
I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know..
What's the name of the game? Does it mean anything to you? What's the name of the game? Can you feel it the way I do? Tell me please, ’cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow
And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal
If I trust in you, would you let me down? Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? Could you feel the same way too? I wanna know..
The name of the game
I have no friends, no-one to see
And I am never invited
Now I am here, talking to you
No wonder I get excited
Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know..
What's the name of the game? (your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you? (got a feeling you give me no choice)(but it means a lot)
What's the name of the game? (your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do? Tell me please, ’cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow
And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal
If I trust in you, would you let me down? Would you laugh at me, if I said I care for you? Could you feel the same way too? I wanna know..
Oh yes I wanna know..
The name of the game (I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you? (but I think I can see in your face)(that it means a lot)
What's the name of the game? (your smile and the sound of your voice)
Can you feel it the way I do? (got a feeling you give me no choice)(but it means a lot)
What's the name of the game? (I was an impossible case)
Does it mean anything to you? (but I think I can see in your face)(that it means a lot)(fade)/
They came flying from far away, now I'm under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell
They've seen places beyond my land and they've found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
As all good friends we talk all night, and we fly wing to wing
I have questions and they know everything
There's no limit to what I feel, we climb higher and higher
Am I dreaming or is it all real? Is it true I'm an eagle? Is it true I can spread my wings? Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky(I'm an eagle)I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly(what a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
And I dream I'm an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky(I'm an eagle)I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly(what a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky(I'm an eagle)I'm an eagle that rides on the breeze
High, high, what a feeling to fly(what a feeling)
Over mountains and forests and seas
And to go anywhere that I please
