A Thing About You It must have been love Listen to your heart Fading like a flower Spending my time Queen of rain Almost unreal Crash! Boom! Bang! Vulnerable You don't understand me Wish I could fly Anyone Salvation Milk And Toast And Honey Breathe The Weight Of The World * Every Day ** See Me ** It Hurts * * Bonus Tracks ** Nur auf der limitierten internationalen Edition © Übersetzungen: muenic A THING ABOUT YOU I pick up the phone, I'm dialing your number while I pray you're at home, at home and alone 'cause I can't function on my own And I'll never stop believing The reapwork is done. You are the one The radio is on but sound is all gone And I wanna walk out in the sun But lately that's been very hard to do I've got a thing about you And I don't really know what you do 'cause I've got a thing about you, hey you I pick up the phone, I'm dailing that number And my heart like a stone waits for the tone. Oh, I can't make it on my own, And I'll never stop believing. I know what is right and this is so wrong Alone in my bed, better off on my own The TV is on, but the colours are gone And lately you’ve been painting my world blue I've got a thing about you (I've got a thing about you) And I don't really care what you do I've got a thing about you (I've got a thing about you) Yeah you I've got a thing about you I've got a thing about you Lately you've been painting my world blue I've got a thing about you (I've got a thing about you) And I don't really care what you do I've got a thing about you (I've got a thing about you) Hoping this story comes true... top IT MUST HAVE BEEN LOVE Lay a whisper on my pillow, leave the winter on the ground. I wake up lonely, there's air of silence in the bedroom and all around. Touch me now, I close my eyes and dream away. It must have been love but it's over now. It must have been good but I lost it somehow. It must have been love but it's over now. From the moment we touched 'til the time had run out Make-believing we're together, that I'm sheltered by your heart. But in and outside I've turned to water like a teardrop in your palm. And it's a hard winters day I dream away. It must have been love but it's over now, it was all that I wanted, now I'm living without. It must have been love but it's over now, it's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows. top Leg ein Flüstern auf mein Kissen, Lass den Winter auf dem Boden. Ich wache einsam auf, die Luft der Stille ist im Schlafzimmer und überall. Berühre mich jetzt, ich schließe meine Augen und träume fort. Es muß Liebe gewesen sein aber jetzt ist es vorbei. Es muß gut gewesen sein aber ich habe es irgendwie verloren. Es muß Liebe gewesen sein aber jetzt ist es vorbei. Von dem Moment an, als wir uns berührten bis die Zeit vorbei ging. Vorgeben, daß wir zusammen sind, daß ich von deinem Herz beschützt werde. Aber drinnen und draußen habe ich mich zum Wasser gedreht wie eine Träne in deiner Handfläche. Und es ist ein schwerer Wintertag Ich träume fort. Es muß Liebe gewesen sein aber jetzt ist es vorbei. Es muß gut gewesen sein aber ich habe es irgendwie verloren. Es muß Liebe gewesen sein aber jetzt ist es vorbei, es ist dort, wo das Wasser fließt es ist dort, wo der Wind weht. top LISTEN TO YOUR HEART I know there's something in the wake of your smile. I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea. You've built a love but that love falls apart. Your little piece of heaven turns too dark. Listen to your heart when he's calling for you. Listen to your heart there's nothing else you can do. I don't know where you're going and I don't know why, but listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye. Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile. The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea. They're swept away and nothing is what is seems, the feeling of belonging to your dreams. Listen to your heart when he's calling for you. Listen to your heart there's nothing else you can do. I don't know where you're going and I don't know why, but listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye. And there are voices that want to be heard. So much to mention but you can't find the words. The scent of magic, the beauty that's been when love was wilder than the wind. Listen to your heart when he's calling for you. Listen to your heart there's nothing else you can do. I don't know where you're going and I don't know why, but listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye. top FADING LIKE A FLOWER (EVERY TIME YOU LEAVE) In a time where the sun descends alone, I ran a long long way from home to find a heart that's made of stone. I will try, I just need a little time to get your face right out of my mind, to see the world through different eyes. Every time I see you oh I try to hide away but when we meet it seems I can't let go. Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower. Tell me why? When I scream there's no reply, when I reach out there's nothing to find, when I sleep I break down and cry. Every time I see you oh I try to hide away but when we meet it seems I can't let go. Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower. Fading like a rose, fading like a rose, beaten by the storm, talking to myself, getting washed by the rain, it's such a cold cold town. Every time I see you oh I try to hide away but when we meet it seems I can't let go. Every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower. (repeat) top SPENDING MY TIME What's the time? Seems it's already morning. I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue. The tv's on but the only thing showing is a picture of you. Oh I get up and make myself some coffee. I try to read a bit but the story's too thin. I thank the Lord above you're not here to see me in this shape I'm in. Spending my time, watching the days go by. Feeling so small, I stare at the wall, hoping that you think of me too. I'm spending my time. I try to call but I don't know what to tell you. I leave a kiss on your answering machine. Oh help me please, is there someone who can make me wake up from this dream? Spending my time, watching the days go by. Feeling so small, I stare at the wall, hoping that you are missing me too. I'm spending my time, watching the sun go down. I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a clown", a prayer gone blind. I'm spending my time My friends keep telling me: Hey, life will go on, time will make sure I'll get over you. This silly game of love - you play, you win only to lose. I'm spending my time, watching the days go by. Feeling so small, I stare at the wall, hoping that you think of me too. I'm spending my time. I'm spending my time, watching the sun go down. I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a clown", a prayer gone blind. I'm spending my time. top QUEEN OF RAIN In that big big house there are fifty doors and one of them leads to your heart. In the time of spring I passed your gate and tried to make a start. All I knew was the scent of sea and dew but I've been in love before, how about you? There's a time for the good in life, a time to kill the pain in life, dream about the sun you queen of rain. In that big old house there are fifty beds and one of them leads to your soul. It's a bed of fear, a bed of threats, regrets and sheets so cold. All I knew your eyes so velvet blue, I've been in love before, how about you? There's a time for the good in life, a time to kill the pain in life, dream about the sun you queen of rain. It's time to place your bets in life, I've played the loser's game of life, dream about the sun you queen of rain. Time went by as I wrote your name in the sky, fly fly away, bye bye. It's time to place your bets in life, I've played the loser's game of life, dream about the sun you queen of rain. Dream about the sun you queen of rain. top ALMOST UNREAL Babe, come in from the cold, and put that coat to rest. Step inside, take a deep breath, and do what you do best. Yea, kick off them shoes, and leave those city streets. I do believe love came our way and fate did arrange for us to meet. I love when you do that hocus pocus to me. The way that you touch, you've got the power to heal. You give me that look, it's almost unreal, it's almost unreal. Hey, we can't stop the rain, let's find a place by the fire. Sometimes I feel, strange as it seems you've been in my dreams all my life. I love when you do that hocus pocus to me. The way that you touch, you've got the power to heal. You give me that look, it's almost unreal, it's almost unreal. It's a crazy world out there. Let's hope our prayers are in good hands tonight. I love when you do that hocus pocus to me. The way that you touch, you've got the power to heal. You give me that look, it's almost unreal, it's almost unreal. (repeat) top CRASH! BOOM! BANG! My Papa told me to stay out of trouble, "When you've found your man, make sure he's for real!". I've learned that nothing really lasts forever. I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal, they won't heal. Cos every time I seem to fall in love, Crash! Boom! Bang! I find the heart but then I hit the wall, Crash! Boom! Bang! That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same. I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere, I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew. My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow, but I always did, and Lord, I still do. I'm still breaking the rules. I kick it up. I kick it down. Cos every time I seem to fall in love, Crash! Boom! Bang! I find the heart but then I hit the wall, Crash! Boom! Bang! That's my real middle-name, it has always been the same. That's the call, that's the game and the pain stays the same. I still feel the heat - Slowly fallin' from the sky - And the taste of the kissing, shattered by rain - Comin' tumblin' from behind - And the wild holy war. I kick it up. I kick it down And every time I seem to fall in love, Crash! Boom! Bang! I find the roses dying on the floor, Crash! Boom! Bang! That's the tall, that's the game and the pain stays the same. That's my real middle-name, it has always been the same. Oh Yea Oh Yea Oh Yea ah-hah, been the same, been the same. It has always been the same. It has always been the same. top VULNERABLE Everywhere I look I see her smile, her absent-minded eyes. And she has kept me wondering for so long, how this thing could go wrong. It seems to me that we are both the same, playing the same game. But as darkness falls this true love falls apart, into a riddle of her heart. She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands. She's so vulnerable and I don't understand. I could never hurt the one I love, she's all I've got. But she's so vulnerable, oh so vulnerable. Days like these no one should be alone, no heart should hide away. Her touch is gently conquering my mind, there's nothing words can say. She's coloured all the secrets of my soul, I've whispered all my dreams. But just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart, into a riddle of her heart, yea. She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands. She's so vulnerable and I don't understand. I could never hurt the one I love, she's all I've got. But she's so vulnerable, oh so vulnerable yea. Don't hide your eyes... She's so vulnerable, like china in my hands. She's so vulnerable and I don't understand. I could never hurt the one I love, she's all I've got. But she's so vulnerable, oh so vulnerable yea. top YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND ME I've been up all night, you've been puttin' up a fight. Seems like nothin' I say gets through. How did this old bed fit a world between me and you. We said »Goodnight« but the silence was so thick you could cut it with a knife. We've hit the wall again and there's nothin' I can do. You're the one, yea, I've put all my trust in your hands. C'mon and look in my eyes, here I am, here I am. You don't understand me, my baby. You don't seem to know that I need you so much. You don't understand me, my feelings, the reason I'm breathin', my love. The mornin' comes and you're reachin' out for me just like everything's the same and I let myself believe things are gonna change. When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close, do you wonder who's inside? Maby there's no way we could feel each other's pain. Tell me why it get's harder to know where I stand. I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am. You don't understand me, my baby. You don't seem to know that I need you so much. You don't understand me, my feelings, the reason I'm breathin', my love. You don't understand me. You don't understand me, my baby. You don't seem to know that I need you so much. You don't understand me, my feelings, the reason I'm breathin', my love. You don't seem to get me, my baby. You don't really see that I live for your touch. You don't understand me, my dreams or the things I believe in, my love. You don't understand me. You don't understand me. Understand me. top WISH I COULD FLY Halfway through the night, I wake up in a dream Echoes in my head, make every whisper turn into a scream I dreamed I could fly, out in the blue Over this town, following you Over the trees, subways and cars I'd try to find out who you really are In the middle of the night, cool sweatin' in my bed Got the windows open wide, thinkin' about all the things you said I wish I could fly, out in the blue Over this town, following you I'd fly over rooftops, the great boulevards To try to find out who you really are Who you really are Who you really are I wish I could fly now I wish I could fly now I wish I could fly, around and around Over this town, the dirt on the ground I'd follow your course of doors left ajar To try to find out who you really are To try to find out who you really are I wish I could fly top ANYONE Anyone who have a love close to this, knows what I'm saying Anyone who wants a dream to come true, knows how I'm feeling All I can think of is you and me, doing the things I wanna do All I imagine is heaven on earth, I know it's you Anyone who ever kissed in the rain, knows the whole meaning Anyone who ever stood in the light, needs no explaining But everything more or less appears so meaningless, blue and cold Walking alone through the afternoon traffic, I miss you so Anyone who felt like I do Anyone who wasn't ready to fall Anyone who loved like I do Knows it never really happens at all It's over when it's over What can I do about it Now that it's over Everything more or less is looking so meaningless, and fades to grey Lying awake in an ocean of teardrops, I float away Anyone who felt like I do Anyone who wasn't ready to fall Anyone who loved like I do Knows it never really happens at all It's over when it's over What can I do about it Now that it's over Hey baby Anyone who felt like I do Anyone who wasn't ready to fall Anyone who loved like I do Knows it never really happens at all It's over when it's over What can I do about it Now, now it's all over top SALVATION I can barely remember my past Everything seems to disappear so fast But I recall being jealous and alone Gazing at the dreams going by I started my life when you knocked on the door Found something inside I didn't dare to ignore Now I do believe in flowers on the moon I'll swim beside the golden tide You crashed by the gate Captured my fate Salvation My eyes couldn't see I hardly breathed I was diving so deep Salvation I'm down in the study holding on to my luck Will you still love me when I call you up? I gave you my body, the power over me Come on, bring out the best in me You crashed by the gate Captured my fate Salvation My eyes couldn't see I hardly breathed My heart was asleep Salvation Some will get broken Others will get lucky like me meeting you Don't pass me by You crashed by the gate Captured my fate Salvation My eyes couldn't see I hardly breathed I was down on my knees Salvation Some will get broken Others will get lucky like me meeting you Don't pass me by Don't pass me by I found salvation, oh yea You bring me salvation I found salvation top MILK AND TOAST AND HONEY Milk and toast and honey make it sunny on a rainy Saturday, he-he-hey Milk and toast, some coffee take the stuffiness out of days you hate, you really hate Slow morning news pass me by I try not to analyse but didn't he blow my mind this time Didn't he blow my mind? (Here he comes) To bring a little lovin' honey To take away the hurt inside is everything that matters to me Is everyting I want in life Milk and toast and honey To bring a little lovin', honay To take away the pain inside is everything that matters to me is everything I want from life (Here he comes) Oh lay a little lovin', baby To feel you're gettin' close to me is everything that matters to me is everything I want to be Ain't it funny how things sometimes look so clear and feel so near The dreams I dream, my favorite wishful thinkin' Oh he's bookmarked everywhere, everywhere True love might fall from the sky You never know what to find but didn't he blow my mind this time Didn't he blow my mind? (Here he comes) top BREATHE I've gotta come down, I've been awake far too long. My eyes look torn, they were so strong. I wore the crown, I wrote the song, now it's fading. My heart was open like a window to a summer breeze. I breathed your love, I filled my lungs and veins. And I breathed your love until I felt the pain and like rain it slipped away. I tried to find out what love was really all about. Behind the curtain waits the sky. It's rare I feel enough to cry, I'm drying up inside. My life has open oh like a window to the summer breeze. I breathed your love, I filled my lungs and veins. And I breathed your love until I met the pain and like rain it slipped away, just like a little rain. I breathed your love and nothing stayed the same. Yes, I breathed your love and filled my heart in vain cos like rain it slipped away, just like rain it swept away. top THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD Sunday morning I'm still hiding in bed Listening to the rhythm of the rain above my head and all that I have said I sure saved a lot for you But what could I do? If I'd been talking to the wall it wouldn't make any difference to you That's the art of being you I think I carry the weight of the world sometimes you lose the weight of the world sometimes you cry I kiss your smile I wish you'd stay the night I put my arms around your golden head and turn on the light Oh I love to watch your eyes when I make love to you wait little world sometimes you lose the weight of the world sometimes you cry sometimes you cry The weight of the world sometimes you lose the weight of the world sometimes you cry sometimes you cry top EVERY DAY Every day I see him coming Every day he walks on by Life used to be so plain and simple Before he came into my life Every night I keep on dreaming Every night I take him home We always go to bed together I always wake up all alone Oh it's strange, so strange What he's doing to me Oh it's strange so strange Did this ever happen to you The way it has happened to me The way it just happened to me Every day outside my window Always minutes close to eight I wish he stayed a little longer But his bus is never late Every night we're dancing slowly I play the music he adores Like Sinatra then we're talking All important things for sure Oh it's strange so strange What he's doing to me Oh it's strange so strange Did this ever happen to you The way it has happened to me Oh it's strange so strange What he's doing to me Oh so strange, real strange Did this ever happen to you The way it has happened to me The way it just happened to me top SEE ME With the moon and the sun in his eyes He's arriving And I don't know what I'd do without him I got life Suddenly See See me I've got nothing to hide See me I've got nothing to hide See me I'm leaving my heart in the palm of his hand So gently I know he knows that I love him Though I've never said Is there an easy way?
