Monday Mourning lyrics - A-HA

Monday mourning
Tears are falling
Down like fluid pain
And it's a long
Lost Monday morning

The telling words
I like to learn
Are dying on your lips
As the morning
Through my fingers slips

I find myself in times like this
Quite amazed
How eager everything is to go wrong
Around me

Monday mourning
Tries to wound me
Eyes look hurt again
For have I asked
And will never ask again
For I have asked
I will never ask again

All The Planes That Come In On The Quiet lyrics - A-HA

The planes and old airport
A long life
Short of great events
It seems like all the planes that come in on the quiet
Along the coast catch a glimpse of the world
Live and grow older

The planes are going south
A good mind
Strong and little used
It seems like all the planes that come in on the quiet
Along the coast catch a glimpse of the world
Live and grow older

Don't move the tears into my life
Somebody's out here, it's hard to describe
Do you know why?

The planes and old airport
A long life
Short of great events
It seems like all the planes that come in on the quiet
Along the coast catch a glimpse of the world
Live and grow older

Don't move the tears into my life
I find it hard, so hard to believe
Beauty of life

Oh, the planes that come in on the quiet

Never Never lyrics - A-HA

Come the winter, falling snow
I could swear I'll make this promise hold

I won't give you shadows
Never, never
I won't give you shadows

See me standing on a bridge in white
I watch the water being scenes by ice
Now I swear to make these words sound right

I won't give you shadows
Never, never
I won't give you shadows

And my love is all that matters
And my love is all I see
Hold me me and give all your love
Touch me and give all your love to me
Hold me me and give all your love
Touch me and give all your love to me

I won't give you shadows
Never, never
I won't give you shadows
Never, never
I won't give you shadows
Never, never
I won't give you shadows
Never, never

I swear to you I'll make this promise hold

What's That You're Doing To Yourself lyrics - A-HA

What's that you're doing to yourself in the pouring rain?
What's all the notches? Would you care to explain?
You're soaking so you're making makeup is coming down
What's that you're doing to yourself in the rain?

What's that you're saying to yourself in the pouring rain?
Speak up please, I really can't hear a word you're saying
Looks to me that you've been thrown in at the deep end
I'd lend a hand but I hate getting wet

Still you're all in one wet piece
Blame it all on some coincidence
Now you put your face to bed
Down comes life and knocks your head

Still you're all in one wet piece
Blame it all on some coincidence
The rain has put your face to bed
Down comes life and knocks you dead

You Have Grown Thoughtful Again lyrics - A-ha

Hah, yeah
Carrumba

I fail to understand you
I don't know if you are lonely or just con me
And I don't see how you can say
That friends are few and far between
So tell me who you've seen

You have grown thoughtful again
I can't say I like it
You have grown thoughtful again
Not you

I'm shaken and in two minds
You say things that are not the way I say they are
And you don't see how I can say it
Friends are few and far between
And tell me where you've been

You have grown thoughtful again
I can't say I like it
You have grown thoughtful again
Mum? Can't say I like it

You have grown thoughtful again
I can't say I like it
You have grown thoughtful again

Lesson One lyrics - A-ha

Come on say after me
I'm happy, happy as can be
Hip, hip hooray
Slowly learning that life is okay
Say after me
I ain't no better to be safe than sorry

So here's a kid lesson, my number one
All's good that starts well and moves with the sun

So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
I'm me, oh
Today is another day to find you
Anchors away
I'll be coming for your love, okay

So here's a kid lesson, my number one
All's good that starts well and moves with the sun
So here's a kid lesson, my number one
All's good that starts well and moves with the sun

Say after me
I'm happy, happy as can be
Hip, hip hooray
Slowly learning that life is okay
I know that life's okay
I know that life's all good
I know that life can be wrong
A-ha
I know it's meant to be good

So here's a kid lesson, my number one
All's good that starts well and moves with the sun
So here's a kid lesson, my only one

Presenting Lily Mars lyrics - A-ha

Presenting Lily Mars
Tap dancer, a soon-to-be star
She'll beat your heart so fast
Spotlight's on Lily tonight

She's on Channel One's late night show
She's watching people come and go
Producer says, "You've got it made, girl"
And when she's lying sleepless in his arms
The frost paints roses on poor Lily's window pane

Presenting Lily's mum
She still lives on in Lily's mind
Stopped ageing years ago
Now she's gone but left her dreams in Lily's eyes
Lily's wondering if mummy's watching her tonight

"Good morning," says father Mars
Presenting a salesman's cheerful face
His mouth is never shut
As he strides from door to door to door to door
Watch his face as he puts his foot in my door

Presenting Lily Mars
She's sensing moons and stars
The pills that Doc subscribed
Will keep the sleepless, dreamless nights away
Oh, poor Lily, now you're sleeping day by day
By day by day by day by day
Bye, bye

Poor Lily, mummy's watching you tonight

Take On Me lyrics - A-ha

Talking away
I don't know what I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, OK?

Take on me (take on me),
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But I'm me stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK.
Say after me,
"It's no better to be safe than sorry."

Take on me (take on me),
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Oh, things that you say, yeah—
Is it life or just to play my worries away?
You're all the things I've got to remember
You're shying away
I'll be coming for you anyway

Take on me (take on me),
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day

Take on me (take on me),
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day

Case Closed On Silver Shore lyrics - A-HA


Here's a stain on the ottoman
Here's a slug in the plaster wall
Here's a glass with a fingerprint
Left out in the entrance hall
Left out in the hallway

Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing

Here's a room showing signs of struggle
Here's a tear in the victim's shirt
Here's a plate with a chalky substance
Like a footprint in the dirt
Left out in on the driveway

Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing

I wouldn't put it past the neighbor
I wouldn't put it past the maid
I wouldn't put it past the boyfriend
Yeah he'd do it in a jealous rage

Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
The boyfriend won’t sing

Case closed on silver shore
Can't make it stick
Case closed on silver shore
He's getting off quick

Case closed on silver shore
On silver shore
Can't make it stick

Case closed on silver shore
On silver shore
He's getting off quick

Minor Key Sonata lyrics - A-HA

Come back, my darling one
I'm calling on you
The road ahead is long
And I must warn you
Take hold, my little one

My minor key sonata
Show forth your looping grace
No one here can take your place
We’ll find a way
To make it pay
To get around it
Come back, my fallen son

Don't let them fool you
Cos when the day is done
They never move you
Lay down your sense of pride
Trampled once too often
Put out your mournful tones
No one here can take your place

We’ll find a way
To do OK
To get around it

Come back, my analogue
I hardly knew ya
The high end sloping off
A thing of beauty
Take hold, my little ones
My minor key sonatas

Show forth your looping grace
No one here can take your place
We’ll make it pay
We’ll find a way
To do without it
Say

You’ll find a way
We’ll make it pay
To get around it

Show
Just what you know
Just let it go
To get around it

Celice - a-ha

Celice
It's in the way you hurt me
Celice
I know that I'm alive

Open up inside
Make me want you
Make me want to

Wrap yourself around me
Hold me tighter
Hold me tight as you can

Celice
It's in the way you hurt me
Celice
You sharpen all my sense
I know you're on my side

Celice
It's on the way you teach me
Celice
To chase the thoughts away
You opened up my eyes
Made me want you
Made me want to

You know it feels so nice
Hold me tight now
Hold me tight as can be

Celice
It's in the way you hurt me
Celice
I know that I'm alive
Celice
You sharpen all my sense
I know you're in my side

Don't Do Me Any Favors - a-ha

You offer your assistance
But you won't accept my help
You draw your own conclusions
And there's room for little else

Your own participation's
Based on how much you can lose
I cannot help but feel
That this won't be of any use

Don't offer me your credit
Cuz I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favors
I don't wanna play that game

I do not want to see myself
As someone that you saved
I'd rather be your adversary
Than to be your slave

Cuz every friendly gesture
Turns my stomach inside out
Don't do me any favors
I am better off without

Don't offer me your credit
Cuz I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favors
I don't want to know your name

But it's alright
Yes it's alright
Yes its alright
Yes its alright
Yes it's alright

Don't offer me your credit
Cuz I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favors
I don't want to know your name

Don't do me any favors
Don't do me any favors
Don't do me any favors

Coz it's alright
Yes, it's alright etc

Ooh-don't give me any credit
Cuz I do not want the blame
Don't do me any favours
I don't want to see your face

But it's alright
Yes it's alright

Cosy Prisons - a-ha

Take a moment if you dare
Catch yourself a breath of air
There's another life out there
And you should try it

Dead ends hide on every street
Look before you place your feet
Cracks and fissures keep the beat
And you're inside it

Every thought you never dared to think
Every mood you always knew would sink
Every line you spoke out loud in a jest
All the time you took to be your best
Soon forgotten

The sun must never touch your skin
It could expose the dark within
You're paranoid about the paranoia

And panic hits without a sign
You worry about it all the time
Every perfect moment is a hidden warning

Cuz everything makes your pretty head spin
And nagging thoughts are starting to sink in
With everything this way it's better to forget
Than end up in a place with something to regret

Your transatlantic shopping spree
Your health forever guarantees
Organic -bio-life's a breeze in cosy prisons

But hiding out in a salad bar
Isn't gonna get you far
and bottled wine is vinegar tomorrow

Everything around here makes your pretty head spin
Its piling up high and you're back where you begin
Moments you have tried so hard to forget
Are promising to 've been the best one's yet

Everytime you shut your eyes it appears
Everytime you trace your steps back here
None of your convictions have the same old ring
No doubt you found a place for everything
In cosy prisons

So if you're careful
You won't get hurt
But if your careful all the time
Then what's it worth?
