ABBA - cassandra
Down in the street theyre all singing and shouting

Staying alive though the city is dead
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter
While you are crying alone on your bed

Pity cassandra that no one believed you
But then again you were lost from the start

Now we must suffer and sell our secrets
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts
Sorry cassandra I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning

Some of us wanted but none of us could

Listen to words of warning

But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep

Sorry cassandra I didnt believe

You really had the power

I only saw it as dreams you would weave

Until the final hour

So in the morning your ship will be sailing

Now that your father and sister are gone

There is no reason for you to linger
Youre grieving deeply but still moving on

You know the future is casting a shadow

No one else sees it but you know youre fate

Packing your bags, being slow and thorough

Knowing, though youre late, that ship is sure to wait
Sorry cassandra I misunderstood
Now the last day is dawning

Some of us wanted but none of us could

Listen to words of warning

But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep

Sorry cassandra I didnt believe

You really had the power

I only saw it as dreams you would weave

Until the final hour

I watched the ship leaving harbour at sunrise

Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain

She stood on deck, just a tiny figure

Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain
Sorry cassandra I misunderstood

Now the last day is dawning

Some of us wanted but none of us could
Listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in our sleep

Sorry cassandra I didnt believe

You really had the power

I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour

Im sorry cassandra

Im sorry cassandra
