Obsession

I could wait night and day
Sigh your name when I pray
In my heart night and day
Til you come my way
I could wait night and day
Be the sky blue or gray
In my heart night and day
For your love to stay

Obsession

You got that magic in your eyes
Shining wherever you go
Through a lover's paradise
Trust every sign when I'm so
Close to where my heart belongs
Like in heaven

I could wait night and day
Sigh your name when I pray
In my heart night and day
Til you come my way
I could wait night and day
Be the sky blue or gray
In my heart night and day
For your love to stay

Obsession

I can't help falling into a trance
Losing my senses I know
You're my hero in advance
Trust every sign when I'm so
Close to where my heart belongs
Like in heaven

I could wait night and day
Sigh your name when I pray
In my heart night and day
Til you come my way
I could wait night and day
Be the sky blue or gray
In my heart night and day
For your love to stay

Obsession
Obsession
Obsession

There ain't no promises
Ain't no commitments
But how cruel can love be
How cruel to a broken heart like mine
There ain't no right
There ain't no wrong
but as long as hope survives
I'll stay alive

I could wait night and day
Sigh your name when I pray
In my heart night and day
Til you come my way
I could wait night and day
Be the sky blue or gray




In my heart night and day
For your love to stay

Sixteen Tons of Hardware - lyrics:

Sixteen tons of hardware...
Sixteen tons of hardware...

Every night has got a crowd to cheer,
A show to get things right.
Every band has got a stage to fear,
A kick when the crowd is in sight.

Turn on feedback looper super trouper -
Flashes clashing screen.
Tune in consecrating, masquerading,
Ghosts in our sonic machine.

We load sixteen tons of hardware -
Blazing steel and galvanized.
We crash fifteen supersonic tanks
Through the gates of paradise.

We load sixteen tons of hardware -
Blazing steel and galvanized.
We crash fifteen supersonic tanks
Through the gates of paradise.

Digging deep inside a wall of sound,
The cheering of the crowd.
Take me high - I'm feeling heavenbound,
The sound when I shout it out loud.

Turn on feedback looper super trouper -
Flashes clashing screen.
Tune in consecrating, masquerading,
Ghosts in our sonic machine.

We load sixteen tons of hardware -
Blazing steel and galvanized.
We crash fifteen supersonic tanks
Through the gates of paradise.

We load sixteen tons of hardware -
Blazing steel and galvanized.
We crash fifteen supersonic tanks
Through the gates of paradise.

Only because of you the OFFICIAL lyrics (IT IS THE REAL!):


"We load sixteen tons of hardware
Blazing steel and galvanized
We crash fifteen supersonic tanks -->  (We CRASH (!) not we drove)
Through the gates of paradise"


I don't know how is it possible incorrectly to interpret for the text....

У меня сейчас будет разрыв сердца, эту песню крутили по радио, когда училась в школе, годах в 2008-2009 и так она мне нравилась тогда, хотела найти, не знала название и исполнителя, однажды записала маленький фрагмент на диктофон кнопочного телефона, потом по обрывкам фраз кое-как периодически пыталась найти через гугл, через шазам и вот, спустя 15 лет, по приколу напела её голосовом помощнику и он выдал совпадение! 😂 Господи ❤❤❤

@user-wz9fp6kq4z

@EmesePapp4858932679432

Húúú de szerettem ezt a számot régen!!!! :D Mikori is? 2005-ös??
...És nem is tudtam h svédek! Azztamindenit...
Akkor azért ilyen szívdöglesztő ez a pasi! Állítom akárhány dalt gyártottak, ez volt a legjobb mind közül! Nem véletlenül játszotta a rádió orrba-szájba!
