And the tap drips under the strip light And I'm sitting in the kitchen sink And the tap drips Drip drip drip... Waiting for the telephone to ring And I'm wondering where she's been And I'm crying for yesterday And the tap drips Drip drip drip... It's always the same |

The sun rises slowly on another day
The eastern sky grows cold Winter in water colours Shades of grey Something Something holds me Holds me hypnotized I stare at the window, stare at the window Waiting for the day to go Winter in water colours Shades of grey |

I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind But I know that this time I have said too much, been too unkind I try to laugh about it Cover it all up with lies I try to laugh about it Hiding the tears in my eyes 'Cause boys don't cry Boys don't cry I would break down at your feet And beg forgiveness, plead with you But I know that it's too late And now there's nothing I can do So I try to laugh about it Cover it all up with lies I try to laugh about it Hiding the tears in my eyes 'Cause boys don't cry Boys don't cry I would tell you that I loved you If I thought that you would stay But I know that it's no use That you've already gone away Misjudged your limits Pushed you too far Took you for granted I thought that you needed me more, more, more Now I would do most anything To get you back by my side But I just keep on laughing Hiding the tears in my eyes 'Cause boys don't cry Boys don't cry Boys don't cry |

Slowly fading blue
The Eastern hollows Catch the dying sun The night-time follows Silent and black Mirror pool Mirrors the lonely place Where I meet you See your head In the fading light And through the dark Your eyes shine bright And burn like fire Burn like fire in Cairo Burn like fire Burn like fire in Cairo Shifting crimson veil Silken hips Slide under my hand Swollen lips Whisper my name And I yearn You take me in your arms And start to burn F.I.R.E.I.N.C.A.I.R.O... Then the heat disappears And the mirage fades away F.I.R.E.I.N.C.A.I.R.O... Burn like a fire in Cairo Burn like a fire Blaze like a fire in Cairo Blaze like fire Flare Burn like fire Burn like fire in Cairo |

Spit out the shout of a warning
Death is an honour with doubts So you live in the end And you mistrust the start Because you don't think it counts But you'll pay for yourself You'll pay for yourself You're just a heroin face You see a heroin face in the mirror And someone is clutching your breath And you believe in the needle of night You're only doing your best But you'll pay for yourself You'll pay for yourself You believe in the needle of night And someone is clutching your breath So you mistrust the start By always running away But you'll never come back You're just a heroin face Heroin face |

And creek by the fire I want to smell of rotting wood It's all I desire I want my joints to seize up I want my legs to ache I want my eyesight to fail I want my skin to flake To be old I want to be old I want false teeth And not be able to chew I want to be senile A centigenarian fool I want lots of wrinkles Want my hearing to go I want to be ignored And I want to be slow To be old I want to be old |

You wear your smile like it was going out of fashion
Dress to inflame but douse any ideas of passion Carry your love in a trinket hanging round your throat Always inviting, always exciting but I must not take off my coat Well I'm tired of hanging around I want somebody new I'm not sure who I've got in mind But I know that it's not you That it's not you You ask me questions that I never wanted to hear I am the only one just until you finish this year I would murder you if I had the alibi here in my hand But you just laugh because you don't understand That I'm tired of hanging around I want somebody new I'm not sure who I've got in mind But I know that it's not you It's not you That it's not you No, it's not you It's not you |

Don't say what you mean
You might spoil your face If you walk in the crowd You won't leave any trace It's always the same You're jumping someone else's train It won't take you long To learn the new smile You have to adapt Or you'll be out of style It's always the same You're jumping someone else's train If you pick up on it quick You can say you were there Again and again and again You're jumping someone else's train It's the latest wave That you've been craving for The old ideal was getting such a bore Now you're back in line Going not quite quite as far But in half the time Everyone's happy They're finally all the same Because everyone's jumping Everybody else's train Jumping someone else's train Jumping someone else's train Jumping someone else's train |

Walk across the garden
In the footsteps of my shadow See the lights out No one's home In amongst the statues Stare at nothing in The garden moves Can you help me? Close my eyes And hold so tightly Scared of what the morning brings Waiting for tomorrow Never comes Deep inside The empty feeling All the night time leaves me Three imaginary boys Slipping through the door Hear my heart beats in the hallway Echoes Round and round Inside my head Drifting up the stairs I see the steps behind me Disappearing Can you help me? Close my eyes And hold so tightly Scared of what the morning brings Waiting for tomorrow Never comes Deep inside The empty feeling All the night time leaves me Three imaginary boys sing in my Sleep sweet child The moon will change your mind ... See the cracked reflection Standing still Before the bedroom mirror Over my shoulder But no one's there Whispers in the silence Pressing close behind me Pressing close behind Can you help me? Can you help me? |

The soul lives forever
Always ends sometime Now I'm alone, alone and cold Under painted skies Remembering the love that we came alive And I can only scream As a lonely cry Forever The summer goes by upon the wind Goes by as though it has never been I lift my hand to wipe the tears The tears I just can't go on Now my love has gone away Now my imaginary world is fading fast Dreams I dreamed could never last I lived my innocence in the past And my broken heart The summer goes by upon the wind Goes by as though it has never been I lift my hand to wipe the tears The tears I just can't go on Now my love has gone away The summer goes by upon the wind Goes by as though it had never been I lift my hand to wipe the tears The tears I just can't go on Now my love has gone I just can't go on Now my love has gone away |

I was only playing Disguise my words to fool you From what I was saying Mud trench Meat stench The Fatherland is looking on Grip you in a luger lock... This will be the big one World war No-one would believe me World war No-one's a winner No-one's a loser... Just a dead friend Heaven heaven Give me pride Give me a golden hand Smash them with an iron rule Spit them out like sand Sit and wait Then run like hell Run like hell One time again Sow the seeds of hate Underneath destruction...
