The Name Of The Game/eagle Lyrics by Abba

The Name Of The Game/eagle

Ive seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
Im getting more open-hearted

I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
Theres a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know..

Whats the name of the game?
Does it mean anything to you?
Whats the name of the game?
Can you feel it the way I do?
Tell me please, cause I have to know
Im a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What Im 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..

Whats 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]
Whats 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
Im a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What Im 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]
Whats 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]
Whats 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]

They came flying from far away, now Im under their spell
I love hearing the stories that they tell
Theyve seen places beyond my land and theyve found new horizons
They speak strangely but I understand
And I dream Im an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings

Flying high, high, Im a bird in the sky
Im 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
Theres no limit to what I feel, we climb higher and higher
Am I dreaming or is it all real?
Is it true Im an eagle?
Is it true I can spread my wings?

Flying high, high, Im a bird in the sky
[Im an eagle]
Im 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 Im an eagle
And I dream I can spread my wings

Flying high, high, Im a bird in the sky
[Im an eagle]
Im 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, Im a bird in the sky
[Im an eagle]
Im 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
