P & M Party mix

Wide Open Road (II)

Stuck in the Middle (Extended dancefloor version)

We are the storm – breaking the norms 
to be better – than before 

I’ll keep you warm – shelter your home 
while the weather’s – turning cold 

Behind a closed door – we laid on the floor
and I kissed you – to the core 

We swore to be close - and after a pause  
we were lovers – with a cause  

Come as you are – it’s not that far 
to the memories – in our hearts

I heard your voice –  you gave me no choice 
let’s turn back to – what we had 


Ref: 
If was feeling small, 
starring at the wall
waiting for your call


Brygga: 
Come down in time I heard her say 
We’ll meet again on half the way 
This time I wanna stay with the brave

We Are The Storm

Come down to the supermarket
I’m on display at the summer sale 
I might be a real fine bargain 
You don’t even have to pay 


I’ve reached my best before date 
no longer in perfect shape
but I’m tasting way much better 
beyond the expiry date 


I’m the grape in your favorite wine 
aging well if you give me time 
And I’ll always be here waiting 
for you to come and buy 


Ref: 
Just got to look my best with a price tag on my chest

Ben Watt / 'Lone Cat (Holding On)' (Original Mix)

True Love's In Vain – vers 2

Vers: 
  A marriage in April 
A break up in May 
What are the chances, she said! 

A girlfriend in Paris 
A needle in the hay
What are the chances, he said 

A match made in heaven 
more stars than desert sand 
What are the chances, she said 

A soulmate for life 
and the same time your wife
What are the chances, he said 

A trip with Columbus 
on the loveship that he sailed 
What are the chances, she said 

A quarrel in April 
A make up in May 
I’ll take my chances, he said! 


Bridge:  Go against the grain, refuse to conform, take the road less traveled instead of the well-known. 

Break: Jumping to conclusions, putting up an act, coming up with solutions, never check facts  
What are the chances… and what counts in the end

What Are The Chances, She Said?

Songwriters Willebrand & Nylund doing whatever they feel like doing – and having fun.
