When I see you sky as a kite As high as I might I can't get that high And how you move The way you burst the clouds It makes me want to try And when I see you sticky as lips As licky as trips I can't lick that far But when you pout The way you shout out |

He waits for her to understand But she won't understand at all She waits all night for him to call But he won't call anymore He waits to hear her say "Forgive" But she justs drops her pearl-black eyes And prays to hear him say "I love you" But he tells no |

Every time we do this I fall for her Wave after wave after wave It's all for her I know this can't be wrong i say (and i'll lie to keep her happy) As long as i know that you know That today i belong Right here with you Right here with you... And so we watch the sun come up From the edge of the deep green sea And she listens like her head's on fire Like she wants to believe in me So i try Put your hands in the sky Surrender Remember We'll be here forever And we'll never say goodbye... I've never been so Colourfully-see-through-head before I've never been so Wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more And all i want is to keep it like this You and me alone A secret kiss And don't go home Don't go away Don't let this end Please stay Not just for today Never never never never never let me go she says Hold me like this for a hundred thousand million days But suddenly she slows And looks down at my breaking face Why do you cry? what did i say? But it's just rain i smile Brushing my tears away... I wish i could just stop I know another moment will break my heart Too many tears Too many times Too many years i've cried over you How much more can we use it up? Drink it dry? Take this drug? Looking for something forever gone But something We will always want? Why why why are you letting me go? she says I feel you pulling back I feel you changing shape... And just as i'm breaking free She hangs herself in front of me Slips her dress like a flag to the floor And hands in the sky Surrenders it all... I wish i could just stop I know another moment will break my heart Too many tears Too many times Too many years i've cried for you It's always the same Wake up in the rain Head in pain Hung in shame A different name Same old game Love in vain And miles and miles and miles and miles and miles Away from home again... |

(woman whispering) - ahh, this song's called the 'two chord cool
(man whispering) - i think i'm in love "Everyone feels good in the room" she swings "Two chord cool in the head" she sings "A-buzz a-buzz a-buzzing like them killer bees" Tell me this is not for real Please tell this is not for real... From time to time her eyes get wide And she's always got them stuck on me I'm surprised at how hot honey-coloured and hungry she looks And I have to turn away to keep from bursting Yeah I feel that good! She slips from the stage A foot no more But it seems to take an hour for her to reach the floor And the two chord cool still grooves As she slides toward me smooth as a snake I can't swallow, i just start to shake And i just know this is a big mistake Yeah but it feels good Do it to me! do it to me! do it to me! do it to me! Do it to me! do it to me! do it to me! But it feels good But it feels good It feels good "If you want i can take you on another kind of ride..." "Believe me i would but..." Deep inside the 'but' is 'please' I am yearning for another taste And my shaking is 'yes' "You will be all the things in the world you've never been See all the things in the world you've never seen Dream all the things in thea world you'll never dream... But i think i get a bit confused... Am i seducing or being seduced? Oh i know that tomorrow i'll feel bad But i really couldn't care about that She's grinning, singing, spinning me round and round Smiling as i start to fall Her face gets big, her face gets small It's like tonight i'm really not me at all And it feels good! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! It feels good! |

it started with a dedication
"lost in admiration - happy birthday - i'm forever yours - blossom" fared red inside a tiny book of butterflies i smiled surprised at how when flickered through the wings flew by spelled out my name six months went by the summer lost obsessively the letters dropped into my life the same soft blood smooth flowing hand "please try to understand - i have to see you - have to feel you - tell you all the ways i need you - yours forever in love" strange attraction spreads its wings it varies but the smallest things you never know how anything will change strange attraction spreads its wings and alters but the smallest things you never know how anything will fade the year grew old incessantly she wrote to me she'd started smoking poetry! i laughed in recognition of a favorite phrase she'd pulled me in... i answered her a christmas card in sepia arranging when and where and how the two of us should meet... her opening so well prepared a nervous smile i couldn't take my eyes from her she whispered "can i use some of your lipstick?" it was perfect so believable i couldn't help but feel that it was real and kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms strange attraction spreads its wings it varies but the smallest things you never know how anything will change strange attraction spreads its wings and alters but the smallest things you never know how anything will fade so alone into the cold new year without another word from her i wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the spring but weeks went by with no reply untill once more my birthday came and with it my surprise but this time nothing was the same... "i'm sorry - blame infatuation - blame imagination i was sure you'd be the one but i was wrong - it seems reality destroys our dreams - i won't forget you blossom" fared red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes... strange attraction spreads its wings it varies but the smallest things you never know how anything will change strange attraction spreads its wings and alters but the smallest things you never know how anything will fade |

Birds sing; we swing Clouds shift by and everything is like a dream It's everything I wished... Never guessed it got this good Wondered if it ever would Really didn't think it could Do it again? I know we should! The sun is up I'm so fizzy I could burst! You wet through and me headfirst Into this it's perfect It's all I ever wanted Ow! It feels so big it almost hurts! Never guessed it got this good Wondered if it ever would Really didn't think it could Do it some more? I know we should!

She follows me down to the sound of the sea
Slips through the sand and stares up at me Is this how it happens? Is this how it feels? Is this how a star falls? Is this how a star falls? The night turns as I try to explain Irresistible attraction and orbital plane Maybe it's more like a moth to a flame She pushes my face with her smile Forget about stars for a while! She melts Meanwhile millions of miles away in space An incoming comet crashes Jupiter's face And disappears away with barely a trace Was that it? Was that the Jupiter show? Kinda wasn't quite what I hoped for, you know? Pulling away, she stands up slow Around her the night turns Around her the night turns Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was it That was the Jupiter Crash Drawn too close and gone in a flash Just a few bruises in the region of the splash She moved to the sound of the sea She drifted away from me So much for gravity |

the world is neither fair nor unfair
the idea is just a way for us to understand but the world is neither fair nor unfair so one survives the others die and you always want a reason why but the world is neither just nor unjust it's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it no, the world is neither just nor unjust and though going young so much undone is a tragedy for everyone it doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing no unseen sign or untold truth in anything... but living on in others, in memories and dreams is not enough you want everything another world where the sun always shines and the birds always sing always sing... the world is neither fair nor unfair the idea is just a way for us to understand no the world is neither fair nor unfair so some survive and others die and you always want a reason why but the world is neither just nor unjust it's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it no, the world is neither just nor unjust and though going young so much undone is a tragedy for everyone it doesn't mean there has to be a way of things no special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings but living on in others, in memories and dreams is not enough and it never is you always want so much more than this... an endless sense of soul and an eternity of love a sweet mother down below and a just father above for living on in others, in memories and dreams is not enough you want everything another world where the birds always sing another world where the sun always shines another world where nothing ever dies... |

No I won't do it again, I don't want to pretend
If it can't be like before I've got to let it end I don't want what I was, I had a change of head But maybe someday... Yeah maybe someday I've got to let it go and leave it gone Just walk away, stop it going on Get too scared to jump if I wait too long But maybe someday... I'll see you smile as you call my name Start to feel, and it feels the same And I know that maybe someday's come Maybe someday's come... Again! So tell me someday's come tell me some days come again... No I won't do it some more, doesn't make any sense If it can't be like it was, I've got to let it rest I don't want what I did, I had a change of tense But maybe someday... I'll see you smile as you call my name Start to feel, and it feels the same And I know that maybe someday's come Maybe someday's come... If I could do it again maybe just once more Think I could make it work like I did it before If I could try it out If I could just be sure That maybe someday is the last time Yeah maybe someday is the end Oh maybe someday is when it all stops Or maybe someday always comes again... |

remember the first time i told you i love you -
it was raining hard and you never heard - you sneezed! and i had to say it over "i said i love you" i said... you didn't say a word just held you hands to my shining eyes and i watched as the rain ran through your fingers held your hands to my shining eyes and smiled as you kissed me... "if you die" you said "so do i" you said... and it starts the day you make the sign "tell me i'm forever yours and you're forever mine forever mine..." "if you die" you said "so do i" you said... and it starts the day you cross that line "swear i will always be yours and you'll always be mine you'll ways be mine always be mine..." remember the last time i told you i love you - it was warm and safe in our perfect world - you yawned and i had to say it over "i said i love you" i said... you didn't say a word just held your hands to your shining eyes and i watched as the tears ran through your fingers held your hands to your shining eyes and cried... "if you die" you said "so do i" you said... but it ends the day you see how it is there is no always forever... just this... just this... "if you die" you said "so do i" you said but it ends the day you understand there is no if... just and there is no if... just and there is no if... |

'Everyone feels good in the room,' she swings
'Two chord cool in the head,' she sings 'A-buzz a-buzz a-buzzing like them killer bees...' Tell me this is not for real Please simply this is not for real... From time to time her eyes get wide And she's always got them stuck on me I'm surprised at how hot honey-colored and hungry she looks And I have to turn away to keep from bursting Yeah I feel that good She slips from the stage A foot no more But it seems to take an hour for her to reach the floor And the two chord cool still grooves As she slides towards me smooth as a snake I can't swallow I just start to shake And I just know this is a big mistake Yeah but it feels good! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! 'If you want I can take you on another kind of ride...' 'Believe me I would but...' Deep inside the 'but' is 'please' I am yearning for another taste And my shaking is 'yes' 'You will be all the things in the world you've never been See all the things in the world you've never seen Dream all the things in the world you've never dreamed...' But I think I get a bit confused Am I seducing or being seduced? Oh I know that tomorrow I'll feel bad But I really couldn't care about that She's grinning, singing, spinning me round and round Smiling as I start to fall Her face gets big, her face gets small It's like tonight I'm really not me at all And it feels good! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! Do it to me! It feels good! |

I can't find myself
I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself In the head of this stranger in love Holding on giving up To another under faded setting sun And I wonder where I am... Could she run away with him? So happy and so young And I stare As I sing in the lost voice of a stranger in love Out of time letting go In another world that spins around for fun And I wonder where I am... Could he ever ask her why? So happy and so young And I stare...but... I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself In the heart of this stranger in love Giving up holding on To this other under faded setting sun And I'm not sure where I am... Would he really turn away? So happy and so young And I stare As I play out the passion of a stranger in love Letting go of the time In this other world that spins around for one And I'm not sure where I am... Would she know it was a lie? So happy and so young And I stare...but... I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself In the soul of this stranger in love No control over one To the other under faded setting sun And I don't know where I am... Should he beg her to forgive? So happy and so young And I stare... As I live out the story of a stranger in love Waking up going on In the other world that spins around undone And I don't know where I am... Should she really say goodbye? So happy and so young And I stare...but... I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself I got lost in someone else |

Say it's the same sun spinning in the same sky
Say it's the same stars streaming in the same night Tell me it's the same world whirling through the same space Tell me it's the same time tripping through the same day So say it's the same house and nothing in the house has changed Yeah say it's the same room and nothing in the room is strange Oh tell me it's the same boy burning in the same bed Tell me it's the same blood breaking in the same head Say it's the same taste taking down the same kiss Say it's the same you Say it's the same you and it's always been like this Say it's the same you Say it's the same you and it always and forever is Say it's the same you Say it's the same you and it's always been like this Say it's the same you Say it's the same you and it always and forever is Say it's the same you Say it's the same you Yeah tell me it's all the same This is how it's always been But if nothing has changed... Then it must mean... But the sun is cold - the sky is wrong The stars are black - the night is gone The world is still - the space is stopped The time is out - the day is dropped The house is dark - the room is scarred The boy is stiff - the bed is hard The blood is thick - the head is burst The taste is dry - the kiss is thirst And it's not the same you It's not the same you No it never was like this It's not the same you It's not the same you and it never really is It's not the same you It's not the same you No it never was like this It's not the same you It's not the same you and it never really is It's not the same you It's not the same you Oh it's not the same This isn't how it's always been Everything has to have changed...

In a sea of gold down next to you So blurred and tired under summer sun You whispered dreams of a world to come... We were so in love In this sea of gold so young and tired Under summer sun hard by your side Whispering dreams down next to you... We were so in love The happiest day Yeah the happiest day I knew But summer sun sea of gold This perfect day so long ago Whispering dreams so blurred and tired We have to keep this day alive Whispered dreams so young and tired It's hard to hold this day inside And the happiest night I ever had Up next to you on silver sand So scared and high under winter moon You whispered dreams that would all come true... We were so in love Up next to you so fucked and high Under winter moon it made me cry Whispering dreams on silver sand... We were so in love The happiest night Yeah the happiest night I had But winter moon and silver sand This perfect night in another land Whispering dreams so scared and high We have to keep this night alive Whispering dreams so fucked and high It's hard to hold this night inside And every summer's sun I want again And every winter's moon I want the same My happiest day and my happiest night Always next to you...

Go if you want to
I never tried to stop you Know there's a reason For all of this you're feeling Low, it's not my call You couldn't ever love me more You couldn't love me more You couldn't love... Me, I don't show much It's not that hard to hide you See in a moment I can't remember how to Be all you wanted I couldn't ever love you more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love... You want me to cry and play my part I want you to sigh and fall apart We want this like everyone else Stay if you want to I always wait to hear you say There's a last kiss For all the times you run this way It's not my fault You couldn't ever love me more You couldn't love me more You couldn't love... Love me more Couldn't ever love me more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love You want me to lie not break your heart I want you to fly not stop and start We want us like everything else Maybe we didn't understand Not just a boy and a girl It's just the end of the End of the world Me, I don't say much It's far too hard to make you See in a moment I still forget just how to Be all you wanted I couldn't ever love you more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more I couldn't love you more |

Nothing left to feel
Nothing more to do Nothing left to give Nothing more in you Nothing else to have or hold Nothing left, but time to go Time to go Years go by Didn't really say that much at all And moments just fly Didn't ever really touch at all Weeks always run down Didn't really get that close at all And days, days fall out Didn't ever really know at all And then we're here in a room too clean and too bright She stares at you for an hour You stare into the light For one last hour in the room So mean and so white I stare at her in this room as she stares into the night Nothing left to feel Nothing more to do Nothing left to ask Nothing more of you Nothing else to share or show Nothing left but time to go In his eyes as we turn no eternity of life In his eyes as we turn no infinity of why In his eyes as we turn no beautiful goodbye In his eyes as we turn...nothing but tears In his eyes as we turn...nothing but tears (spoken:) I couldn't understand too much of what was being said In a matter of minutes Peacefully so slow I had to think to breathe My heart burst We moved in silence really slowly away from the world As we drove a strange silence That moment Nothing will ever be the same Nothing will ever be the same Nothing will ever be the same Days fall out Weeks always run down Moments just fly Weeks go by And then we're here And then we're here in a room too clean and too bright I stare at you for an hour You stare into the light For one last hour in the room so mean and so white You stare at me in this room as I stare into the night Nothing left to feel Nothing more to do Nothing more to take Nothing more from you Nothing else to need or know There's nothing left at all...but time to go |

The world is neither fair nor unfair
the idea is just a way for us to understand but the world is neither fair nor unfair so one survives the others die and you always want a reason why but the world is neither just nor unjust it's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it no, the world is neither just nor unjust and though going young so much undone is a tragedy for everyone it doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing no unseen sign or untold truth in anything... but living on in others, in memories and dreams is not enough you want everything another world where the sun always shines and the birds always sing always sing... ... the world is neither fair nor unfair the idea is just a way for us to understand no the world is neither fair nor unfair so some survive and others die and you always want a reason why but the world is neither just nor unjust it's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it no, the world is neither just nor unjust and though going young so much undone is a tragedy for everyone it doesn't mean there has to be a way of things no special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings but living on in others, in memories and dreams is not enough and it never is you always want so much more than this... an endless sense of soul and an eternity of love a sweet mother down below and a just father above for living on in others, in memories and dreams is not enough you want everything another world where the birds always sing another world where the sun always shines another world where nothing ever dies... |

Side by side in silence
They pass away the day So comfortable, so habitual... And so nothing left to say Nothing left to say Nothing left to say Side by side in silence His thoughts echo round He looks up at the sky... She looks down at the ground Stares down at the ground Stares down at the ground Side by side in silence They wish for different worlds She dreams him as a boy... And he loves her as a girl Loves her as a girl... And side by side in silence Without a single word... It's the loudest sound It's the loudest sound... It's the loudest sound I ever heard |
