Songwriter: Joey Tempest

Running out on the streets
He lives from day to day
Looking for someting to do
He needs to get away
Hoping that maybe one day
He could be someone
Praying that maybe someday
He could be number one

In his world of make believe
He always tends to be

On the loose, so young, so tough, so wild
On the loose, again

Dreaming, dreaming about
All the things he'd like to do
Trying, trying so hard
To make it all up to you

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.
