Mamma Mia! The Movie Soundtrack Album Lyrics

Honey, honey, how he thrills me, aha, honey, honey
Honey, honey, nearly kills me, aha, honey, honey
I'd heard about you before
I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, he's a love machine
Oh, you make me dizzy

Honey, honey, let me feel it, aha, honey, honey
Honey, honey, don't conceal it, aha, honey, honey
The way that you kiss goodnight (the way that you kiss me goodnight)
The way that you hold me tight (the way that you holding me tight)
I feel like I wanna sing when you do your thing

Honey, honey, touch me, baby, aha, honey, honey
Honey, honey, hold me, baby, aha, honey, honey
You look like a movie star (you look like a movie star)
But I love just who you are (but I love just who you are)
And honey, to say the least, you're a doggone beast

Honey, honey, how you thrill me, aha, honey, honey
Honey, honey, nearly kill me, aha, honey, honey
I heard about you before
I wanted to know some more
Now I'm about to see what you mean to me

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world

Everybody screamed
When I kissed the teacher
And they must have thought they dreamed
When I kissed the teacher
All my friends at school
They had never seen the teacher blush
She looked like a fool
Nearly petrified
'Cause she was taken by surprise

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
When I kissed the teacher
Couldn't quite believe her eyes
When I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath, the world stood still
But then she just smiled (smiled)
I was in the seventh heaven
When I kissed the teacher

[Lily James]
What a mad day
Ah, ah, ah
Now I see everything
In a different light
What a mad day
I was up in the air
And she taught me a lesson alright

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
I was in a trance
When I kissed the teacher
Suddenly I took the chance
When I kissed the teacher
Leaning over me
She was trying to explain the laws of geometry
And I couldn't help it
I just had to kiss the teacher

[Celia Imrie & Lily James]
What a mad day
Now I see everything
In a different light
What a mad day
I was up in the air
And she taught me a lesson alright

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
What a crazy day
When I kissed the teacher
All my sense had flown away
When I kissed the teacher
My whole class went wild
As I held my breath
The world stood still
But then she just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven
When I kissed the teacher

[Lily James, Alexa Davies & Jessica Keenan Wynn]
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher

I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine
Laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain

We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass by the Eiffel tower
I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret
Oh, yes
Those crazy years
That was the time of the flower-power
But underneath
We had a fear of flying
Of growing old
A fear of slowly dying
We took our chance
Like we were dancing our last dance

I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all

In the tourist jam

Round the Notre Dame

Our last summer
Walking hand in hand

Paris restaurants

Our last summer

Morning croissants

Living for the day
Worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play

And now you're working in a bank
The family man, a football fan
And your name is Harry

How dull it seems

Yet, you were the hero of my dreams

I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine
Laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every man that I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice

But now it isn't true
Now everything is new
And all I've learned
Has overturned
I beg of you

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile, and baby, I was stuck
I still don't know what you've done with me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily

I feel a kind of fear
When I don't have you near
Unsatisfied
I skip my pride
I beg you dear

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

I've had a few little love affairs
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible

'Cause everything is new
And everything is you
And all I've learned
Has overturned
What can I do?

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

Half past twelve
And I'm watchin' the late show
In my flat all alone
How I hate to spend
The evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowin' outside the window
As I look around the room
And it makes me so
Depressed to see the gloom
Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me
Chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness
To the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow
With a fortune to win
It's so different from
The world I'm living in
Tired of TV
I open the window
And I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see
No one in sight
Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me
Chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness
To the break of the day

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me
Chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness
To the break of the day

Is there a man out there?
Someone to hear my prayer

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me
Chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness
To the break of the day

I've seen you twice
In a short time
Only a day since we started
It seems to me
For every time
I'm getting more openhearted

Your smile and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling you give me no choice
And it means a lot to 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 curious 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
That 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?
(I was an impossible case)
Can you feel it the way I do?

Tell me, please
'Cause I have to know
I'm a curious 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, and 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, and 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?

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me
S. o. s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When youre gone
How can I even try to go on?
When youre gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good

So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me
S. o. s.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When youre gone
How can I even try to go on?
When youre gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

So when youre near me, darling cant you hear me
S. o. s.
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. o. s.
When youre gone
How can I even try to go on?
When youre gone
Though I try how can I carry on?
When youre gone
How can I even try to go on?
When youre gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

You're so hot, teasing me
So you're blue
But I can't take a chance
On a kid like you
It's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face
That your feelings
Are driving you wild
Ah, but boy you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
But does your mother know that you're out
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
But does your mother know that you're out

Take it easy
Take it easy better slow down boy
That's no way to go
Does your mother know
Take it easy
Take it easy try to cool it boy
Play it nice and slow
Does your mother know

I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young
To be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
Now you're so cute
I like your style
And I know what you mean
When you give me
A flash of that smile
But boy you're only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
But does your mother know that you're out
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
But does your mother know that you're out
Take it easy
Take it easy better slow down girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know
Take it easy
Take it easy try to cool it girl
Play it nice and slow
Does your mother know

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
But does your mother know that you're out
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
But does your mother know that you're out
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
But does your mother know that you're out
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out

Does your mother know that you're out
Does your mother know that you're out
Does your mother know, does your mother know that you're out

Schoolbag in hand
She leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I'm losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I'm glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she's gone there's that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can't deny

What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didn't
And why I just don't know

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers

Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence

But you see
The winner takes it all

Here's to us
One more toast
And then we'll pay the bill
Deep inside
Both of us
Can feel the autumn chill
Birds of passage
You and me
We fly instinctively
When the summer's over
And the dark clouds hide the sun
Neither you nor I'm to blame
When all is said and done

In our lives
We have walked
Some strange and lonely treks
Slightly worn
But dignified
And not too old for sex
We're still striving for the sky
No taste for humble pie
Thanks for all your generous love
And thanks for all the fun
Neither you nor I'm to blame
When all is said and done

It's so strange
When you're down
And lying on the floor
How you rise
Shake your head
Get up and ask for more
Clear-headed and open-eyed
With nothing left untried
Standing calmly at the crossroads
No desire to run
There's no hurry anymore
When all is said and done

If you change your mind
I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me
Let me know
Gonna be around
If you got no place to go
When you're feeling down
If you're all alone
When the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best
And it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test
If you let me try
Take a chance on me
(That's all I ask of you honey)
Take a chance on me

We can go dancing
We can go walking
As long as we're together
Listen to some music
Maybe just talking
You'd get to know me better
'Cause you know I've got
So much that I wanna do
When I dream I'm alone with you
It's magic
You want me to leave it there
Afraid of a love affair
But I think you know
That I can't let go

If you change your mind
I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me
Let me know
Gonna be around
If you got no place to go
When you're feeling down
If you're all alone
When the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best
And it ain't no lie
If you put me to the test
If you let me try
Take a chance on me
(Come on, give me a break will ya)
Take a chance on me

Oh you can take your time baby
I'm in no hurry
I know I'm gonna get you
You don't wanna hurt me
Baby don't worry
I ain't gonna let you
Let me tell you now
My love is strong enough
To last when things are rough
It's magic
You say that I waste my time
But I can't get you off my mind
No I can't let go
'Cause I love you so

If you change your mind
I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
If you need me
Let me know
Gonna be around
If you got no place to go
When you're feeling down
If you're all alone
When the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free
Take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best
Baby can't you see
Gotta put me to the test
Take a chance on me

(From Mamma Mia! The Movie Soundtrack)

I have a dream
a song to sing
to help me cope
with anything

if you see the wonder
of a fairytale
you can take the future,
even if you fail.

I believe in angels
something good in everything i see i believe in angels
when i know the time is right for me,
i'll cross the stream, i have a dream....

i have a dream
a fantasy to help me through
reality, and my destination
makes it worth the while
pushing through the darkness
still another mile.

i believe in angels
something good in everything i see i believe in angels when i know the time is right for me i'll cross the stream, i'll cross the stream, i have a dream.

(repeat first verse and chorus)

I have, a, dream....

I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I've often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can?
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

My, my
At Waterloo, Napoleon did surrender
Oh, yeah
And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way

The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

Waterloo, I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo, promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you
Woah, woah, woah-oh
Waterloo, finally facing my Waterloo

My, my
I tried to hold you back, but you were stronger
Oh, yeah
And now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight

And how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo, I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo, promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you
Woah, woah, woah-oh
Waterloo, finally facing my Waterloo

So how could I ever refuse?
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo, couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you
Woah, woah, woah-oh
Waterloo, finally facing my Waterloo
Waterloo, knowing my fate is to be with you

Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong
I have never seen such sorrow
In your eyes
And the wedding is tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita

Try once more like I did before
Sing a new song, chiquitita
