[Intro: Björn]
End of night, a new day dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing's worth remembering
It's a dream, it's out of reach
Scattered driftwood on a beach

[Hook: Björn and Agentha, Benny & Frida]
Summer night city
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city

[Verse 1: Agentha & Frida]
In the sun I feel like sleeping
I can't take it for too long
My impatience slowly creeping
Up my spine and growing strong

[Pre-Chorus 1: Agentha, Björn, Benny & Frida]
I know what's waiting there for me
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free

[Chorus 1: Agentha, Björn, Benny & Frida]
When the night comes with the action
I just know it's time to go
Can't resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
Lots to take and lots to give
Time to breathe and time to live

[Hook: Björn and Agentha, Benny & Frida]
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city

[Verse 2: Agentha & Frida]
It's elusive call it glitter
Somehow something turns me on
Some folks only see the litter
We don't miss them when they're gone

[Pre-Chorus 2: Agentha, Björn, Benny & Frida]
I love the feeling in the air
My kind of people everywhere<

[Chorus 2: Agentha, Björn, Benny & Frida]
When the night comes with the action
I just know it's time to go
Can't resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
And tomorrow, when it's dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing's worth remembering
It's a dream, it's out of reach
Scattered driftwood on the beach

[Hook: Björn and Agentha, Benny & Frida]
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city

[Outro: Agnetha & Frida and Björn]
Summer night city
Summer night city
Summer night city
Summer night city
Summer night city
Summer night city
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Summer night city
Summer night city
Waiting for the sunrise
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Summer night city

ABBA are one of the greatest pop outfits in history. Their blend of lush orchestrations and light, bouncy europop was both unique and commercially appealing, taking much of the world by storm.

The band name is a member-centric acronym – Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.

Their meteoric rise was sparked by their famed Eurovision performance of original song “Waterloo”, which caused them to win the 1974 competition in Sweden.
