I Am Yours

NEVER RUN AWAY
I think about you night and day
When doves will return from far away,
When the sun comes up again
And sets down in the west
The best is yet to come
I am yours in the summersun
I am yours again
It's the best day of them all for a long, long time
It's the best day - mmmmmmh
You'll never know what is left or right
The sound of music keeps you up all night
Many roses had to die, but all the flowers will return
For you and for me
I am yours in the summersun
I am yours again
It's the best day of them all for a long, long time
It's the best day....
I am yours in the summersun
I am yours again
It's the best day of them all for a long, long time
It's the best day - Everyday

Take You In

TAKE YOU IN
Bam, bam, bam.....
It's the end of this town
Where this road gonna take you
The end of this town
Where we will meet again
You cannot miss, so bright and clear
Warning signs all disappear
Where we will meet again …..bam, bam, bam..
Always more than I know
More that you are giving
More than I know
So bittersweet and light
It's still dark when you arise
sparkles in your sleepy eyes
so bittersweet and light
Forever I'll take you in
Never loose and always win
Never steal another day
Forever I'll take you in
Never loose and always win
Never steal another day
….bam, bam,bam

Everybody Loves You
03:26
|

EVERYBODY LOVES YOU
You can run, you can crawl,
You can stop, the water from the fall.
You may sink, down below
Still the sun shines everywhere you go
Because everybody loves you
Everbody loves you,
Everbody loves you, when you're near
Close the door, close your eyes
Lift your head up to the summer skies.
Count the stars, when they shine
Take what's yours, have everything what's mine.
Because everybody loves
Everbody loves you,
Everbody loves you when you're near
Don't turn around and walk away
Shut your eyes, no words to say..

All You've Left Behind

All You Have Left Behind
Since you went away I am laying here alone,
With nothing left to do, just practise saxophone
Should I call you up, should I clean the moon,
Should I dance alone to „Seven rooms of gloom“
I can tell you now, what I am going through
It's just endless autumn rain
And a minor chord refrain
I find sour milk and damp
And a blown up guitar amp
It's all you've left behind
All you've left behind
The mornings and the days are slowly passing by,
They are basically the same, just with a different sky
It's just endless autumn rain
And a minor chord refrain
I find sour milk and damp
And a blown up guitar amp
It's all you've left behind
All you've left behind!

Anyway No Way

Anyway No Way
I'll bury this love in my secret graveyard
Filled with shattered dreams and a heart torn apart
I´ll dig a deep hole, smash down my memories
Of streets the we´ve walked and places we loved
I´ll hush up your voice, sweet lover´s talk
At last and finally I´ll have to give up
There is anyway no way, my love
Anyway no way, my love
Anyway you say,
Anyway no way
Anyway no way, my love....
So cut your name deep, across my heart
Pouring the graveyard, with all of my blood
No chance to grow up, no time to get old
A lost and dying love, it´s over, cut off
There is anyway no way, my love
Anyway no way, my love
Anyway you say
Anyway no way
Anyway no way, my love.... my love

Let Me Know

LET ME KNOW
If you want to see me,
Always call my name
If you are feeling lonely
You better do the same
If you really love me, please let me know
If we are together, don't let me go
If you really love me, let me know
If you're feeling sad
Don't ever hesitate
You may have your doubts
Don't ever make yourself mad
If you really love me, please let me know
If we are together, don't let me go
If you really love me, let me know

The First To Know

THE FIRST TO KNOW
You close your eyes, you have a dream
of all the chances that might have been
and every night you sleep alone
friendships, that have come and gone
You, you are the first to know
What I need, where I wanna go
You are the first to know
You're breaking your heart in two, just for everyone,
It is never easy nor is it always (is it always, is it always) fun
You fill your fridge, you close the door
pick towels from your bathroomfloor
You pull the curtains all the way
No idea - if it's night or day
You, you are the first to know
What I need, where I wanna go
You, you are the first to know
You're breaking your heart in two, just for everyone
It is never easy nor is it always, is it always, is it always fun

The Railway Tavern
There is a tavern by the railroad,
Its name is still the same
I'm waiting by the window, King Henry is in a frame
Cars are passing slowly, time is running fast
Still waiting for my drink, I was first but get it last
Now I hold my pint of cider, for you I ordered too
Because I can feel you coming, otherwise I'll drink the two
a lonely boat is sinking, I still can see its name
MaryLou in colours, I still think it is a shame
I am halfway under water, halfway up the tree
The end of this journey starts a new century
I am halfway under water, half up in the tree
I am drowning in a pool of a fainted memories
The tavern by the railroad, its name is still the same
I just keep on waiting, King Henry is in a frame
Cars are passing slowly, time is standing still
I am packing up my bag, but first, I'll pay my bill.
I am halfway under water, half up in the tree
the end of this journey starts the new century
I am halfway under water, halfway up the tree
I am drowning in a pool of fainted memories

Drift Away
02:55
|

Drift away
I'll try to get out - escape from my soul
Speak like an actor, play like an actor,
A different role
I'm running away - run away from this scene
Cheating the demons and the vampiers - following me
But the harder I try - the more I see
I can't get away - get away from me
And the harder I try - the more I see
You only drift, you only drift away
You only drift, you only drift away
I try to be the one - with a beautiful mind
A gorgeous smile behind a mask
Untrue and kind
I'll try to be the one - the one you´ll never miss
The one you will run - a hundrethousand miles for a kiss
But the harder I try - the more I see
I can't get away - get away from me
And the harder I try - the more I feel
You only drift, you only drift away
You only drift, you only drift away

The Reason

THE REASON
You are the reason I am here, reason I cry
Reason I laugh, until it hurts in my eye
A door with no key, under the stars
Silver and gold lead me right where you are
Because I won't stay here alone
I want you back where we belong...
You are the reason I dance, reason I sing
Reason I say, that you are my everything
We talk until two, sleep until four
I reach for your hand, when you walk out that door..
Because I won't stay here alone
I want you back where we belong...
We will walk down to the seaside, when it is summer
Wait until the sun's coming down on you...
We will walk down to the seaside, when it's summer
In the winter, in the rain...

Wall of Sound

Wall Of Sound
What's on your mind, when the night comes
Wish it's just a world of wonders
Time keeps on driving
Endless minutes without you and me, me and you
Time and only time will tell you
We should live by the water now
When the tide comes in
Keep drowning in your love through thick and thin
Spinning around our hearts to the Wall of Sound
Spinning round and round..........
I know that I'll keep loving you,
As long as the sun keeps shining
I'll keep wanting you,
As long as the rain keeps pouring down on me
Down on you, pouring down, down, down, down..
We should live by the water now
When the tide comes in
Keep drowning in our love through thick and thin
Spinning around our hearts to the wall of sound
Spinning round and round..........

I Dance

I DANCE
See the years we laughed
See the tears we've cried
Is this for tomorrow and our yesterday we said goodbye
Right before my eye
So close to my heart
I reach out with my hands but I hold nothing in the end
But I dance, I dance
I'll dance with you 'til the morning when I find you,
I find you
Well I dance, I dance
I'll dance with you 'til the morning when I find you,
I find you
Streets are painted gold
You've been gone, that's I've been told
I won't believe in everything I hear
Because you are everything
One more time I'll tell you so
That's all that I can do, all that I can do...
Well I dance, I dance
I'll dance with you 'til the morning when I find you
I find you

Now and Then
02:54
|

Now and Then
Every now and then a memory of pain
Hits me like heavy rain in an empty space
Nothing to hide, still fallen from grace
And every now and then I feel the black despair
And no one who cares, remembering promises
Only made to be broken, remembering lies
And all the words left unspoken
Written in your eyes
And every now and then, so soft and clear,
I hear your voice warm and near
I turn around, but there´s only a mirror - reflecting a tear
And every now and then darkness covers me
A heavy coat – black, wet and cold
A getaway thought follows speechless stay -
Run run away...
And every now and then I still search the sun
And escape the fear, please open your arms again
And I'll dry my tears
Please warm my heart again and ease my pain
Every now and then
Every now and then
Every now and then...
