SING

Baby, you've been going so crazy
Lately, nothing seems to be going right
Solo, why do you have to get so low
You're so… You've been waiting in the sun too long

Chorus:
But if you sing, sing
sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Colder, crying on your shoulder
Hold her, and tell her everythings gonna be fine
Surely, you've been going to early
Hurry, cause no one's gonna be stopped

(Chorus)
But if you sing, sing
sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Baby, there's something going on today
But I say nothing, nothing, nothing,
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

(Chorus)
But if you sing, sing
sing, sing, sing, sing
For the love you bring won't mean a thing
Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

DEAR DIARY

Dear Diary,
What is wrong with me?
'Cos I'm fine between the lines.

Be not afraid.
Help is on its way.
A sentence suspended in air,
way over there.

Dear Diary,
What else could it be?
As nightshade descends like a veil,
under the sail of my heart.
Be still, don't stop until the end.

Dear Diary,
What is wrong with me?
'Cos I'm fine between the lines.

SIDE

Well, I believe there's someone watching over you.
They're watching every single thing you say.
And when you die, they'll set you down and take you through.
You'll realise one day...

... That the grass is always greener on the other side,
the neighbour's got a new car that you wanna drive
and when time is running out you wanna stay alive
We all live under the same sky,
we all will live,
we all will die.
There is nor wrong,
there is no right,
the circle only has one side.

We all try hard to live our lives in harmony
For fear of falling swiftly overboard
But life is both, a major and a minor key
Just open up the chord

But the grass is always greener on the other side,
the neighbour's got a new car that you wanna drive
and when time is running out you wanna stay alive
We all live under the same sky,
we all will live,
we all will die.
There is nor wrong,
there is no right,
the circle only has one side.

Nun, ich glaube, daß jemand über dich wacht.
Sie achten auf alles, was du sagst.
Und wenn du stirbst, holen sie dich ab und begleiten dich.
Du wirst eines Tages erkennen...

...daß das Gras auf der anderen Seite immer grüner ist,
der Nachbar hat ein neues Auto, welches du fahren möchtest
und wenn es soweit ist, willst du am Leben bleiben.
Wir alle leben unter demselben Himmel,
wir werden alle leben,
wir werden alle sterben.
Es gibt kein "Falsch",
es gibt kein "Richtig",
der Kreis hat nur eine Seite.

Wir geben uns alle große Mühe, unser Leben in Harmonie zu leben
aus Angst, zu schnell über Bord zu gehen.
Aber das Leben ist beides, Dur und ein Moll.
Eröffne einfach den Akkord.

Aber das Gras auf der anderen Seite immer grüner ist,
der Nachbar hat ein neues Auto, welches du fahren möchtest
und wenn es soweit ist, willst du am Leben bleiben.
Wir alle leben unter demselben Himmel,
wir werden alle leben,
wir werden alle sterben.
Es gibt kein "Falsch",
es gibt kein "Richtig",
der Kreis hat nur eine Seite.

PIPE DREAMS

I read it all, every word, and I still don't understand a thing.
What had you heard?
What had you heard, was it love, was it take another walk in the dark?
You'll never learn.

I'd pray to god if there was heaven, but heaven seems so very far from here.

Chorus:
And it all boils down to the same old thing.
Just a yin and a yang or a couple of pipe dreams.
and it all boils down to the same old pain.
Whether you win or you lose isn't gonna change a single sing.

I stood in line and a thought crossed my mind I had been dreaming but I didn't mind.
I signed the line and the woman looked right through me.
She didn't smile.

I'd pray to god if there was heaven, but heaven seems so very far from here.

(Chorus)

I'd pray to god if there was heaven, but heaven seems so very far from here.

(Chorus)

And it all boils down to the same old fear.
Just a link in a chain, just a puppet on a string.

(Chorus)

FLOWERS IN THE WINDOW

When I first held you I was cold.
A melting snowman I was told.
But there was no-one there to hold before I swore that I would be alone forever more.

Chorus:
Wow, look at you now, flowers in the window.
It's such a lovely day,
and I'm glad you feel the same,
'Cos to stand up, out in the crowd, you are one in a million,
and I love you so let's watch the flowers grow.

There is no reason to feel bad.
But there are many seasons to feel glad, sad, mad.
It's just a bunch of feelings that we have to hold,
but I am here to help you with the load.

(Chorus)

So now, we're here and now is fine.
So far away from there and there is time, time, time.
To plant new seeds and watch them grow so tere'll be flowers in the window when we go.

(Chorus x2)

Als ich Dich das erste Mal hielt, war ich kalt.
Ein schmelzender Schneemann sagte man mir.
Aber es gab niemanden zum halten, ich schwörte, daß ich für immer alleine sein würde.

Chorus:
Wow, schau dich an, Blumen an meinem Fenster.
Es ist so ein herrlicher Tag,
und ich bin froh, daß du dasselbe fühlst,
aufzustehen, raus aus der Masse, du bist einzigartig,
und ich liebe dich, so laß uns die Blumen beim Wachsen zusehen.

Es gibt keinen Grund, sich schlecht zu fühlen.
Aber es gibt viele Zeiten, um froh, traurig, verrückt zu sein.
Es ist nur ein Haufen von Gefühlen, den wir besitzen müssen,
aber ich bin hier, dir mit der Last zu helfen.

(Chorus)
Jetzt, sind wir hier und (das) Jetzt ist schön.
So weit weg von dort und dort ist Zeit, Zeit, Zeit.
Neuen Samen pflanzen und sie wachsen sehen, dann werden Blumen am Fenster sein, wenn wir gehen.

(Chorus)

THE CAGE

You broke the bread
We drank the wine
Your lip was bleeding, but it was fine

Come on inside babe
Across the line
I love you more than I

But then this bird just flew away
She was never meant to stay
Oh to keep her caged would just delay the spring

You broke your word
Now that’s a lie
We had a deal that you would try

Come on inside girl
I think it’s time
High time we drew the line

But then this bird just flew away
While I looked the other way
Oh to keep her caged would just delay the spring

oh, oooh, oh oh ohhhhh, oh ohhhhhh x2

You broke my soul dear
You stole the plot
You left an empty shot

But there’s nothing left here
'Cause you took the lot
An empty cage is all I got

'Cause when your bird has flown away
She was never meant to stay
Oh to keep her caged would just delay the spring
To keep her caged would just delay the spring

SAFE

Take all the goods from all the bads
And tell the people that you've gone away
Now lift your head up to the sky
And you can tell apart the black from the white

And you wasted time they treasure dear
And my only thought is that they could be right
Well look, there goes another year
About as distant as a satellite

And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe
So Safe

The world's a small child in the dark
And my mind's the same place that it's always been
The monsters seem to fade so fast
Upon the waking of another dream

And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe

And I feel safe
I feel so brave
I'm not afraid of anything they've got to say
If you're okay, because your tucked away
Don't go astray
You've got to be just who you are, who you are

When I was young things didn't last
My only cares stemmed to the price of sweets
Now I'm more older I can laugh
A darling mixed up man with rotten teeth

And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe
So Safe

And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe
And I feel Safe - so Safe
So Safe

FOLLOW THE LIGHT

Nobody really knows where they're supposed to go
Hiding behind a wall
Afraid that they'll lose it all

But it's alright
Just follow the light
And don't be afraid of the dark
In the moonlight you'll dance til you fall
And always be here in my heart
But nobody wants to know

'Cos nobody even cares
Everyone's on the make
Yeah and everyone's out for themselves
Me I'm on the longest road
Where everything's overload
But I've got my heart and soul
So don't throw me overboard

'Cos it's alright
Just follow the light
And don't be afraid of the dark
In the moonlight
You'll dance til you fall and always be here in my heart

'Cos it's alright
Just follow the light
And don't be afraid of the dark
In the moonlight
You'll dance til you fall
And always be here in my heart

'Cos it's alright alright now
And you're alright
Yeah we're alright now

LAST TRAIN

Rain on the brain
Now there's flowers in your window
She oh she's so strange
I dont know anything about her

If it's all the same to you
Here's what im gonna do
I'm gonna write a song
Gonna sing it to everyone
Then I'll sing to you
'Cos it was you that wrote it too
This could be the last train

Search within yourself
The feelings, everybody's got them
You left me on the shelf
And now there no one to rely on

If its all the same to you
Here's what im gonna do
I'm gonna buy a gun
Gonna shoot everything, everyone
And then I'll come for you
Cos it was you that drove me to...
This could be the last train
top






AFTERGLOW

Feeling myself, all of the time
All of the time feeling alright
Taking a while raising a smile
Raising a smile makes it all worthwhile

And if you wanted to find, peace of mind
Then you could find it, anytime you like
You are the Afterglow

Feeling my way, all of the time
All of the time feeling just fine
Taking a page out of my life
Out of my life, wouldn't it be nice?

And if you wanted to find, peace of mind
Then you could find it, anytime you like
You are the Afterglow
You are the midnight show
The only one I know
You come and then you go

And then you finally leave
You leave nothing for me
top






INDEFINITELY

Everyday and everyway
I'm falling
Everything that everyone says turns me on/off
Shine a light on me
So that everyone can see

That I wanna stay here
Indefinitely

Time exists just on your wrists
So don't panic
Moments last and lifetimes are lost in a day
So wind your watches down, please
'Cos there's no time to lose

And I'm gonna stay here
Indefinitely

And I'm wanna stay here
So just let me be

Now I can see the light,
Circling round your reflection

And I'm wanna stay here
Indefinitely

And I'm gonna stay here
So just let me be
Indefinitely (x6)

THE HUMPTY DUMPTY LOVE SONG

All of the king's horses
And all of the king's men
Couldn't put my heart back together again

All of the physicians
And mathmaticians too
Failed to stop my heart from breaking in two

'Cos I all I need is you
I just need you
Yeah you've got the glue
So I'm gonna give my heart to you

I had a premonition
A movie in my mind
I'll follow my suspisions
Of what I would find
It followed me to LA
Down to Mexico
Came in through the back door
And I started a show

Still all I need is you
I just need you
Yeah you've got the glue
So I'm gonna give my heart to you

It was a perfect day
Oh in a perfect way
You know, something had to go
You left me high, you left me low

Now as I lie in pieces
And wait for your return
The sun upon my forehead
It burns baby burns baby burns
An eye on all my horses
You've slept with all my men
I'm never gonna get it together again

So all i need is you
I just need you
Yeah you've got the glue
So i'm gonna give my heart to you
Yeah you've got the glue
There's nothing i can do
Yeah you've got the glue
I'm gonna give my heart to you
