Running Up That Hill

It doesn't hurt me. 
You want to feel how it feels?
You want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
You want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You (be running up that hill)
You and me (be running up that hill)

You don't want to hurt me,
but see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
there is thunder in our hearts, baby

Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You (be running up that hill)
you and me (be running up that hill)
You and me won't be unhappy.

C'mon, baby, c'mon darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience....

And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems

Vårvindar Friska

Vårvindar friska leka och viska,
lunderna kring likt älskande par.
Strömmarna ila, finna ej vila
förr'n ner i djupet störtvågen far.
Klaga mitt hjärta, klaga o hör.
Vallhornets klang bland klipporna dör.
Strömkarlen spelar,
sorgerna delar
vakan kring berg och dal.

Hjärtat vill brista, ack när den sista
gången jag hörde kärlekens röst.
Avskedets plåga, ögonens låga.
Mun mot mun vid klappande bröst.
Fjälldalen stod i blomstrande skrud,
trasten slog drill på drill för sin brud.
Strömkarlen spelte,
sorgerna delte
suckande berg och dal.

Klaga mitt hjärta, klaga o hör.
Vallhornets klang bland klipporna dör.
Strömkarlen spelar,
sorgerna delar
vakan kring berg och dal.

I'll Stand By You

Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'cause I've seen the dark side, too

When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
could make me love you less


And when, when the night falls on you baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your own

So, if you're mad, get mad!
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
and hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry, too
but I'm a lot like you

When you're standing at the crossroads
don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'cause even if you're wrong

I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
and I'll never desert you.
I'll stand by you.
