The Sign (Ace of Base)

Lyrics

I've got a new life
You would hardly recognize me I'm so glad
How could a person like me care for you?
Why should I bother when you're not the one for me?

I saw the sign
And it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Love is demanding without understanding
Yeah I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
And no one's gonna drag you up

Under the pale moon
For so many years I've wondered who you are
How could a person like you bring me joy?
Under the pale moon where I see a lot of stars

I saw the sign
And it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Love is demanding without understanding
Yeah I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
And no one's gonna drag you up
To get into the light where you belong

I saw the sign
And it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
Love is demanding without understanding
Yeah I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I saw the sign
And no one's gonna drag you up

Banter

NB: Banter that happens during the song is especially common in the 90s/early 00s shows, and I have attempted to notate where these spoken interludes appear as best I can. Try to imagine them said in a rhythm with the song, or just go listen to the extra-deranged ones, because it's hard to make the cadence of it all make sense as transcribed.
