THE NAME OF THE GAME / EAGLE
(S.Anderson/B.Andersson/B.Ulvaeus)
First release 1986

I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted
      
I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know..

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

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm 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           (Your smile and the sound of your voice)
Does it mean anything to you?  (Got a feeling you give me no choice)
                               (That it means a lot)

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

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

Flying high, high, I'm a bird in the sky
  (I'm an eagle)
I'm 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
