ABBA - The Name Of The Game Eagle

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..



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..



What’s 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)

What’s 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

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 (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)

What’s 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)

What’s 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 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



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)

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

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
