  PULL! HARDER! by Arivia2006-06-22 04:14:14
    If ye love me, by Esteis2006-06-22 04:17:17
      Aww, sweet. by Arivia2006-06-22 04:18:47
        I can match that mood, too. by Esteis 2006-06-22 04:26:49
Mind you, melody's still sweet. :-)

This particular song is from the musical Chess, which is by Tim Rice and the two Bs from ABBA. The Russian player is playing the American for the world title, and wondering whether he's so happy now that he's finally reached this level.

Who needs a dream?
Who needs ambition?
Who'd be the fool
In my position?
Once I had dreams
Now they're obsessions;
Hopes became needs,
Lovers possessions.

Then they move in
Oh so discreetly
Slowly at first
Smiling too sweetly
I opened doors
They walked right through them
Called me their friend
I hardly knew them

Now I'm who I want to be and where I want to be
and doing what I always said I would
and yet I feel I haven't won at all
Running for my life and never looking back
in case there's someone right behind to shoot me down
and say he always knew I'd fall.

When the crazy wheel slows down
Where will I be? Back where I started.

Don't get me wrong
I'm not complaining
Times have been good
Fast, entertaining
But what's the point
If I'm concealing
Not only love
All other feeling.

Now I'm who I want to be and where I want to be
and doing what I always said I would
and yet I feel I haven't won at all
Running for my life and never looking back
in case there's someone right behind to shoot me down
and say he always knew I'd fall.

When the crazy wheel slows down
Where will I be? Back where I started.
