Stay

Words & music: Per Gessle, Mats M.P. Persson

Cool harmonica intro.

You took a ride to the other side
But I loved you
You took a flight in the middle of the night
But I loved you
You took a swim in an ocean of fools
I still loved you
You took a dream, then you painted it blue
But loved you

I thought you never would come back
I thought you never could come back, oh no
Stay... stay another day
I want you all the way
At home, at work, at play
Won’t you stay?
Make it easy babe
Wait another day
Stay home, at work, at play

You tried to learn from history
You tried to kiss like a lover should
On the balcony
You took a dive when a fish was alive
But I loved you
You took my smile and have turned it to a cry
But I loved you

I’ve never suspected you looking back
I’ve never expected you come back, oh no
Stay... stay another day
I want you all the way / I want you, I want you/
At home at work at play
Please stay
Make it easy babe
Wait another day /another day, another day/
Stay home, at work, at play

Stay... stay another day
I want you all the way / I want you, I want you/
At home at work at play
Please stay
Make it easy babe
Wait another day /another day, another day/
Stay home, at work, at play

Won’t you stay?
Please stay...

I Do Believe

Words & music: Per Gessle

Something walked me up
In the middle of the night
I never ever felt so lonely
I thought about giving you call
But it was half past five
Got out of bed
Walked thru the room to the window
I saw 27 blocks till sleeping
I thought about giving you call
To get it off my mind

I do believe
When I close my eyes
Noone can see me
I do believe
When I close my eyes
Noone can see me

Some days
Are definetly better than others
Some got affairs of tragic
I wish you were here to be near
To help me thru the night
But then again
I gotta carry on among the living
And leave this world
With battles behind me
Watching you sleep only
Keeps them burn my side
Oh yeah..

I do believe
When I close my eyes
Noone can see me
I do believe
When I close my eyes
Noone can see me

Who in this world would believe
Change will come eventually to me
I long to get out in the sun, out in the sun,
Out in the rain and wash this daze away

I do believe
When I close my eyes
Noone can see me
I do believe
When I close my eyes
Noone can see me

I do believe...

Thanks to AntiMario.

Always The Last To Know

The things you did
I never saw them
I only picked up
What I found
The deeds you hid
How could I miss them?
They’re floating free
All over town
When all screamed high I whispered low
Always the last to know

Suspicious calls
I wasn’t listening
I never felt
That insecure
Memorise
I wasn’t reading
I wasn’t ready
To be sure
I was just a puppet on your late show
Always the last to know

Sister, sister, brother, brother
Bring out the blessing human touch
You run so fast, I was so slow
Always the last to know

Please forgive me
For being foolish
That’s how I am
How ’bout you?
I close my eyes
And keep on cherish
God in one
Was once so true
Our love left freezing in the snow
Always the last to know

Sister, sister, brother, brother
Bring out the blessing human touch
You run so fast, I was real slow
Always the last, the last to know

Sister, sister, brother, brother
Bring out the joy I miss so much
You place me with grace in your darkest shadow
And I was always the last to know
Always the last to know..

Do You Wanna Go With Me?

I want back to life
In this crazy world
I just wanna slow down
Get some new words
And I feel as you’re mine
Oh, when my heart is through

I wanna see a clear moon
I wanna feel the sky
I wanna reach your thoughts
Just with a simple smile
I feel feelings of yours
Oh, when your heart is through

Do you wanna go with me?
Hold on to me!
Just wanna have a good time?
Hold on to life!

Just a little touch
Of the good life
Of the crazy life
Of my desperate mind
I feel good for a while
Oh, when your heart is mine

Do you wanna go with me?
Hold on to me!
Just wanna have a good time?
Hold on to life!

Live your life, American dream
I live my life on the rock’n’roll scene
It’s never too late to go back in time
You’re the best that I ever found
A newly world is what I see
Where good is good, and you is me
Where love is love, and crying is weak
You’ve never seen
If you know what I mean.

..and you too viorox!

these are demos on a rare bootleg all sung by marie

colinvdbel (moderator) said on April 10, 2005 20:46:

And the chords to those Per songs? Would be great ;)

Santi said on April 11, 2005 19:09:

Actually I am not sure at all about this line:

Watching you sleep only keeps them burn my side... oh yeah..

“side” sounds in the song like “size”, because I would swear I hear two “s” sounds.

Anyone can help?

coyboyusa said on April 12, 2005 00:36:

actually santi i haev problems with the lyrics to that verse too the percussion hits very loud when per sings there so much it almost sounds like he sneezes or something , its annoying cause i like i do believe alot but i can’t sing that verse lol

onlywhenidream said on April 14, 2005 16:13:

also - i think per songs ’ a flash of tragedy’ rather than ’tragic’ otherwise that makes ne sense.

Roxrider_USA said on April 14, 2005 23:15:

Hey guys!

This is what my ears pick up:

1)

“Some days are definitely better than others, some got {affairs so tragic}”.

However, it could also well be: “some got {a flash of tragedy}.

2)

“But then again, i gotta carry on among the living and leave {these whirlwind battles behind me};
watching you sleep only {keeps ’em blurring my sight}”.

Any other suggestions?

Does any one have Paris’ CD booklet?

Take care!
Carlos E., New York.

pwbbounce (moderator) said on April 15, 2005 16:04:

hej,

After being a fan for years (15 and counting), and ashamed of myself for never even hearing of these titles before.

I Do Believe
Stay
Always Last To Know
Do You Wanna Go With Me?
Remember
New World
All I Ever Wanted

Where are they from, who by etc....

If anyone can send them to be that would be amazing: [email protected]

I’d love to hear these songs!

RobS said on April 17, 2005 00:02:

Well if they are the lyrics, she must’ve decided to change them. Coz she definitely sings “blurring my sight”

marcusvandeursen said on April 17, 2005 13:33:

anyone knows of an online store that sells Paris’ album ’You Know Me’ and or her single of ’I Do Believe’. Have checked out CDON.com and few others, but nowhere are any of these 2 records listed.

tcooh said on April 17, 2005 14:52:

#marcusvandeursen- I know platekompaniet.no sells the Paris CD, but they only sell to Norway :( zailor.no had it, but gone now, sad because they ship worldwide. Singles are not a big thing in Norway, only avaliable for a few months, than gone for good mostly.

#AntiMario- no it says definitely. My mistake, was sure I had it right.

But the Paris booklet can’t be trusted too much, it has several mistakes in other songs. Verse come in a different order then written and so. Hasty work I guess :)

Sheena said on April 18, 2005 20:39:

The lyrics in the bridge should be (last line)

... “and wash these stains away”

Seems to make the most sense.

After some extensive listening I have to agree with “some got a flash of tragic” as well as “only keep on blurrin’my sights”. It does sound like size, but that’s probably Per’s Swedish demo-accent ;)
