Songwriter: Joey Tempest

Lay your hand upon my shoulder
Say something that I want to hear
Time will wash out every trace of sadness
If only you are near

I've tried so hard to be somebody
But now I'm found

And we can be together
And travel far away
And we can love forever
In some of Paradize Bay

Carry me, oh bring me out of fantasy
Tell me this is real
Tell me that you won't give up
And tell me it's a good thing to feel

The wind is carrying your voice
The message is "Don't ever walk away"
And the only answer I can give to you
Is that I'm always gonna stay

Europe

Europe is a Swedish rock band formed in Upplands Väsby, Sweden in 1979, by frontman Joey Tempest, guitarist John Norum, bassist Peter Olsson, and drummer Tony Reno. They obtained a major breakthrough in Sweden in 1982 by winning the televised competition “Rock-SM” (Swedish Rock Championships): it was the first time this competition was held, and Europe became a larger success than the competition itself.
