ALL MY FAVOURITES
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 2:44
All those records that were classics
grow a little younger every time they spin
All those lyrics were romantic
Love was meant to win
This time when I try
to write a song where nothing´s wrong
I´m turnin´ back on roots where I belong
All my favourites are all time favourites
I hear that music on the radio
All my favourites are all time favourites
I like this feelin´ and I know
Every singer has a feelin´
Faces are appealin´ even if they cry
Foolish lovewords might be healin´
even if they lie
This time when I try
to write a song where nothing´s wrong
I´m turnin´ back on roots where I belong
All my favourites are all time favourites etc
There are songs for the tears I´ve cried
There are songs with a smile
There are songs for the times I´ve tried
There are songs for a while, and once again
All my favourites are all time favourites etc

ALWAYS FAITHFUL AND TRUE
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 2:50
Does love fade away
Or just go astray
You´re askin´ me why
You´re free to say no
And you´re free to let go
Now you know why
You may burn down every bridge
and claim that now you are free
But you´re still not sure of who you want to be
Always faithful and true
Always faithful and true to you and you and
Always faithful and true to you
Always faithful to you
Do lovers get cold
Or just boring and old
You´re askin´ me why
Your heart lies at home
Stil lyour love wants to roam
Now you know why
You´re a smooth operator
and they all know your name
Still you play around with love like it´s a game
Always faithful and true etc
You may give up all you have
because you´re hopin´ for more
But you´ll only end up just like before
Always faithful and true etc

BELIEVE IN THIS FEELING
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:17
You did something to me
I could feel it in me
There´s that fire in my heart
No more hesitatin`
You´re so fascinatin´
I felt shivers from the start
And this feelin´s gettin´ stronger
Baby, I´ve waitin´ for so long
I do believe in this feelin´
Do you believe in my love
I do believe in this feelin´
Do you believe in my love tonight
Spoken words are needless
My true love is endless
I keep readin´ every sign
You don´t know like I do
No one´s got it like you
I keep hopin´ you´ll be mine
And this feelin´s gettin´ stronger
Baby, I´ve waitin´ for so long
I do believe in this feelin´
Do you believe in my love
I do believe in this feelin´
Do you believe in my love tonight
And this feelin´s gettin´ stronger
Baby, I´ve waitin´ for so long

BLUE FOR MY BABY
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:18
I lost track on the way and got caught by the rich
I was put up for sale and left dead in the ditch
I played fool for your eyes and got paid for my soul
But I found back the trail, and I´m ready to roll
I´m gonna get blue for my own sweet baby
(blue for my baby)
Blue for my own sweet baby
(blue for my baby)
Spent years of my life in a ballroom of talk
I was tied to a string with permission to walk
I heard voices inside me, and drums in my heart
So I turned myself ´round, and I´m ready to roll
I´m gonna get blue etc
Sold out for a break and a part of the game
I´ve got money to burn - I´ve got noone to blame
I heard voices inside me, and drums in my heart
So I turned myself ´round, and I´m ready to roll
I´m gonna get blue etc

BRANDENBURGER TOR
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:16
It was late in December
We were sharing it all over the world
Soldiers cutting the barb-wire fences
People climbing over the wall
Rising over the scene
in the heart of Berlin
We could see Brandenburger Tor
Let´s go down to Brandenburger Tor
Everybody like we could before
Dreams come true at Brandenburger Tor
Let´s go down to Brandenburger Tor, yeah
Let´s go down to Brandenburger Tor
It was time to get ready
We were wauting for this moment to come
People laughing and dancing with strangers
Children playing across borderlines
Blinded only by tears
after so many years
We´re at last at Brandenburger Tor
Let´s go down to Brandenburger Tor etc
`Cause we all know where it starts
In our hearts at Brandenburger Tor
Let´s go down to Brandenburger Tor etc

DON´ T PLAY WITH MY HEART
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:15
Do you know that you´re stealin´
what I´ve been willin´ to share
I was hooked on a feelin´
You you took me there
I´m all filled with emotions,
but your love is just passin´ through
Does your heart take precautions
Why you make me cry so
Don´t play with my heart
Baby, I love you
It´s hard enough, so
Don´t play with my heart
Baby, I love you
like only I do
My heart is true
Do you love me with passion
and would you make me a vow
Are we part of a fashion
You, you show me how, so
Don´t play with my heart etc
Am I bein´ suspicious
or are you comittin´ a crime
Could it be that I´m conscious
You, you waste my time, so
Don´t play with my heart

FOOL FOR YOUR LOVIN`
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 2:48
Sweet soul sister, you´ve been lettin´ me down
Talk is on the loose, and it´s all over town
Heaven knows only why you´ re foolin´ around
Heartache´s for a sucker, and I´m easily found
I´m a fool for your lovin´, such a fool
High heel sneaker, you´ve been playin´ your game
Don´t you know by now, you´re gonna put me in shame
Woke up this morning, I was callin´ your name
Everybody´s askin´ if we´re still the same
I´m a fool for your lovin´, such a fool
Maybe I´m crazy, maybe it´s true
All I ever wanted was to be with you
for the very rest of my life Oh, yeah
Never say never, ´cause it´s never too late
I won´t give up until you´re tellin´ me straight
Everytime you´re leavin´ me, you know that I´ll wait
`Cause lyin´ to myself is what I´m doin´ so great
I´m a fool for your lovin´, such a fool
Maybe I´m crazy etc

GENTLEMENS´ AGREEMENT
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 4:47
We shook hands and made promises
Sometime ago in the past
But you chose to ignore it
And made up your own little cast
We had an agreement and she made a choice with her eyes
But you bought her with presents and told me that love had a price
We had a gentlemen´s agreement
But you didn´t keep your part of the deal
We had a gentlemen´s agreement
Now I don´t really care how you feel
She got tired of your money
And all of those things she could buy
There was no room for love
So she left with no words of goodbye
We had an agreement but you would´t leave her alone
And now that I know you I feel that I´m best on my own
We had a gentlemen´s agreement etc…

MOTHER MARY
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:08
I´ve been vain I´ve been bad
And I know I´ve made you sad
But I´m finally standing tall
And I´ll fight for you and all your love
It´s a promise that I make
And a sacred burden that I´ll take
It´s so easy to succeed
`Cause I know that I still need your love
I confess that I´ve tried
And been held back by my stupid pride
I´ve had time enough to choose
And I´m still enough to loose your love
Lord, I´ve had a thousand breaks
And I´ve made a few mistakes
Now I ´m free to speak the truth
Of the spirit in my youth, your love
//: Mary, Mother Mary
Give me tour lovin´ and I´ll give you my word ://

NO TURNING BACK
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:18
Eyes through the window Ears to the wall
Out in the open Girls tell it all
Baby´s complainin´ - Mama´s on the phone
I´m in confusion´ - Blue to the bone
Rumours are flyin´ - Neighbours of course
Lies and excuses cover the source and there´s :
No turnin´ back - No turnin´ back
Baby, I´m sorry It´s out of control and there´s :
No turnin´ back
Fresh from the paper Out in the air
Hearts are on fire A lovers´ affair
Pictures from parties Words in the mail
Sign on the wall says: - Follow that trail and there´s :
No turnin´ back etc
Eyes through the window Ears to the wall
Out in the open Girls tell it all
Baby´s complainin´ - Mama´s on the phone
I´m in confusion´ - Blue to the bone and there´s :
No turnin´ back etc

OLD ENOUGH
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:14
Girl, you, ve got me thinkin´
You left me with a perfumed trace
Tried to keep a secret
It wasn´t meant to show on your face
But there´s no no way can cover your eyes
Girl, we never said forever goodbyes
If you´re old enough to wake up love
Then you´re old enough to know what it takes
If you´re old enough to wake up love
Then you´re old enough to know what it shakes
Girl. don´t be suspicious
Love will find it´s way alone
One thing you can do, girl
Call me from the nearest phone
Cause you know that I might still come around
And I always know where love can be found
If you´re old enough to wake up love etc
Girl, you, ve got me thinkin´
You left me with a perfumed trace
Tried to keep a secret
It wasn´t meant to show on your face
If you finally find a love that is true
Then you´re old enough to let it come through
If you´re old enough to wake up love etc

PICTURES IN A DIARY BOOK
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 2:39
Pictures in a diary book
bring back memories
Some of them from love´s defeat
and some from victories
Sometimes when I wish to trade
the future for the past
Hopes and fears are all the same
Love is bound to last
Pictures can be very cruel
although they look so nice
People wearing smiling faces,
speak to me with eyes
Faces come and faces go
A bond takes time to tie
I know there is a bit of truth
revealed in every lie
Pictures count the scars I wear
but no, I´m not ashamed
Everyone´s been bought and paid for
No one is to blame
Left with me are tears and laughs
in a diary book
Pictures from a winding road
and all the years it took

ROMEO
Mel.: Ketil Stokkan/ Text: Ivar Dyrhaug
Spilletid: 2:56
I still remember when I asked you out
how I was shivering inside
While I was torn between belief and doubt
you made me swallow all my pride
I bought you flowers and dressed like a prince
just to show you that I was sincere
But when I thought: This is where it begins
You would whisper goodbye in my ear
Romeo Romeo
Heaven knows you´ll never get to be another
Romeo Romeo
Time to ramble and roam
I tried so hard to make you change your mind
You needed time to be assured
Must keep myself from going ´cross the line
That´s one mistake I can´t afford
I played the part of a fool and a clown
couldn´t see you were turning med down
But everytime I got up to ask why
You would give me a familiar reply:
Romeo Romeo etc
Fell on my knees and told you heart to heart:
Take me or tear me apart:
Romeo Romeo etc

SECOND TO NONE
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 4:10
Heart of a woman, you´re one of a kind
Ten years of lovin´ , baby you´re still on my mind
I miss your face every hour
Oh, baby You´re the only one now
`Cause in my heart you´re a flower
You´re second to none
Out in the open, you shine like a star
Inside my system, baby you´re drivin´ my car
I hear your voice deep inside me
Oh, baby You´re the only one now
`Cause in my dreams you´re the only
You´re second to none
Turn on your lovelight,- shine down on me
World full of people, baby you´re all that I see
I know your blues from your passion
Oh, baby You´re the only one now
With all my heart and affection
You´re second to none

STEAL ME AWAY
Test/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spilletid: 4:08
Oh, baby – One thing you´ve gotta do is
Steal this good lookin´ thing away
Yeah – You know I´ve got the blues for you
Steal me away
Steal me away - steal me away
Away from the streetlife - away from the grey
Take it for real, baby - and hear what I say
You steal me away – Steal me away
Down on my luck, baby - what can I do
I´m all out of money - good friends are few
Nobody knows me, baby - better than you
You steal me away – Steal me away
You play me for love - play me for a fool
Aces are high - let your love rule
Back in your arms, baby – you take me to school
You steal me away – Steal me away

SWEET JESUS
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:30
She runs hot I´m on fire
I´ve been trapped in a world of desire
So good So right
Wanna boogie with my baby all night
She´s got red hair and baby blue eyes
And hot lips
Sweet Jesus She´s a woman, not a girl
My baby From a rock to a pearl
Sweet Jesus She´s a woman, not a girl
My baby She´s a-rockin´ and a-rollin´
She loves rock She knows jazz
She´s got a record called Razamanaz
So loud So proud
Like a rocket comin´ out of the cloud
She wears a tight pair of jeans and a shirt
And high heels
Sweet Jesus etc
She´s a-rockin´ and a-rollin´ with my life
She runs hot I´m on fire
I´ve been trapped in a world of desire
So good So right
Wanna boogie with my baby all night
She´s got red hair and baby blue eyes
And hot lips
Sweet Jesus etc

THE CONTINENTAL BOY
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:47
I´ve been on wheels since I don´t know when
and I wonder why
I´ve had to choose and I´ve often had to lie
I´ve been through hard times with no regrets
but I guess I´m still the same
So if you really want me call my name
The Continental Boy
Call me - The Continental Boy
I´ve been through heartaches and cries out tears
that I used to hide
It felt so good and it made me strong inside
I gave away love and I gave away time
but I guess I´m still the same
So if you really want me call my name
The Continental boy call me
The continental boy
I know it feels hard to be lonely
You´re lookin´ for someone somewhere
Now don´t be afraid you can call me
And I´ll be there You know that I´ll be there
Call me - The Continental Boy call me
Call me - The Continental Boy

TOMORROW TOGETHER
Tekst/Mel. Ketil Stokkan
Spiilletid: 3:34
You took our music deep into your hearts
That´s why we owe you a song
Soldiers of fortune we made life an art
That´s why we couldn´t go wrong
You gave response when the feelin´ was right
That´s how we started to play
Music inside us became our delight
That´s why we hope it will stay
We have tomorrow together
We´ve made a lovesong just for you
We have tomorrow together
We share a heart of love for you
I´ve been around you and tried hard to please
Sometimes I know I came through but
Live is a lovesong with no guaranties
That´s why we owe it to you
I´ve been so happy and I´ve been so sad
Sometimes I thought I would fall
I´ve been devoted in good times and bad
That´s why we´re grateful for all
We have tomorrow together etc
There should be flowers for everyone out there
Who gave us the strength to go through
There should be trumpets to play you a fanfare
But all we can say is: - We love you
You took our music deep into your hearts
That´s why we owe you a song
Soldiers of fortune we made life an art
That´s why we couldn´t go wrong
We have tomorrow together etc
