i should like to remember
how i used to forget you instead i try and discover a new way to get you face down in the gutter i can`t look at the stars but as i taste this old mud here i can sense that you are not too far from home too far from from your cozy little bed there with an angry little moan think of hitting me harder shoot me back into the past that brought me thought me up to haunt you taunt you till you learned that this is the point of no return no more deals and no pretence this is the point of no return no more open-heart offence this is the point of no return no more petty crimes and no amends no amends no amends i should like to remember how i used to forget you instead i try and discover a new way to get you into my life my world my soul my poor mind revolves around you- sweet little kitten you - a chirpy little bird i am thoroughly smitten by the softness of the word that lays on your tongue your lips the your breath make believe no less than this is the point of no return no more deals..... not too far from home too far from feeling too alone to stand straight through the past that brought me thought me up to haunt you taunt you till you had enough of my life my world my soul my poor mind revolves around your word that lays on your tongue your lips your breath make believe no less than this is the point of no return no more deals and no pretence this is the point of no return no more open-heart offence this is the point of no return no more petty crimes and no amends no amends no amends |

all that glitters is gold
gold is what she gave me like the sun i see her fade away into the cold on this blurred photograph she offers me her smile there is something in her eyes that makes me tremble even now and then i sigh all that twinkles are tears there goes my reflection down her cheeks into the corner of her mouth on this blurred photograph she offers me her smile there is something in her eyes that makes me tremble even now and then i sigh on this blurred photograph she offers me her smile there is something in her eyes that makes me tremble even now all that matters at times a simple sign all that matters sometimes is easy to forget i try not to i don`t want to but i have to now and then |

he is one sad boy
but he would`nt shed a tear he is one sad boy with a conviction he is one sad boy which is obvious to me for he claims to be happy with a vengeance and from all the girls in his world he had to love the one that pokes him in the eye whenever his liveliness is souldeep and his smile comes from within and starts caressing her distressing boring self with an idea he`s one sad boy busy proving differently as he claims to be happy with a vengeance he is swimming in her pool of self-conceit swimming round in circles while the water`s getting turbid swimming round in circles when she`s gone he is one sad boy though he never sheds a tear he is one sad boy with a conviction he is one sad boy which is obvious to me for he claims to be happy with a vengeance and from all the souls in his world he tries to win the heart of those who just could`nt give a damn unless pretending to would come in handy when times are rough and roads are sandy for jealousy is their driving motion he is swimming in their pool of self-conceit swimming round in circles while the water`s getting turbid swimming round in circles when they `re gone |

look around
this is the landscape that we`re in there is the house we`ve built and there`s our yellow dustbin and just behind those trees you can see the little barn we used to jump into the hay like we were diving in the ocean walk through the garden now and smell them herbs and spices go strolling up that hill to where the rotting stake is you are looking down on me and i am looking up to you think again now think again about what you want do all the promises you make i cannot keep all the dreams you bring about are far too deep and one more thing to make this misery complete i wanna know cause i don`t know just why you want to go look around this is the landscape that we`re in gracefully surging fields a thunderbolt enlightening the narrow path we used to walk as if we`d sail the seven seas to hide away and booze and fuck like sailors out on shore-leave all the promises you make i cannot keep all the dreams you bring about are far too deep and one more thing to make this misery complete: it seems you played the game just a little smarter and while my brittle raft will sink you go walking on the water look around this is the landscape that we`re in the lake the trees the birds and bees and everything`s revolving the clouds between the sky and i slowly drift apart the rain will wash away the tears and soothe your aching heart all the promises you make i cannot keep all the dreams you bring about are far too deep and one more thing... |

there's a big house on the mountain
and a garden with a tree there's a husband and some children but they don't belong to me there's a dirtroad to the valley where the horses can run free and a mustang and a driver who can take us to the sea there's a big heat on my balcony and i feel lonely as can be so i walk down to the market shady place through a crack upon the ceiling we have just a scanty light so it won't be too revealing when i dance a waltz for jane my waltz for jane there's a big light in a big sky 'pon a big dream when it comes true this town will never look the same in a big sky 'pon a big dream when it comes true this town will never look the same there's a big light in the sky and i know why it shines on me 'cause my next step is forever and my next turn sets me free a waltz for jane my waltz for jane there's a big light in a big sky 'pon a big dream when it comes true this town will never look the same in a big sky 'pon a big dream when it comes true this town will never look the same |

i stand on my two feet on my two hands i walk away now and then and almost every time i wake up walking in my sleep i feel the need to walk away once upon a time it was when everything was real there was nobody who would want to walk away but today we know so much that we don't really know just what is true or false or should we go or stay all of a sudden i wake up all of a sudden i wake up the words i trust to build upon are pebbles in my hand all of a sudden i wake up all of a sudden i wake up the words that name the right and wrong are pebbles in my hand the words i give and those i take are just pebbles in my hand every time i look i see them moving by remote control so remote that they don't even know yet it seems they know so much that they don't really care so much about who does and who does not control all of a sudden i wake up all of a sudden i wake up the words i trust to build upon are pebbles in my hand all of a sudden i wake up all of a sudden i wake up the words that name the right and wrong are pebbles in my hand the words i give and those i take are just pebbles in my hand |

shake your dream
like an apple off the tree bed it in the grass lay so still like you never ever will tip the hourglass a way so bold how time extends and hearts unfold curious at last true this is a part of me a part you're not supposed to see so come away come away just one step into another scenery out in a different world don't look back and don't you even look at me unless you want to seek at me a way so bold how time extends and hearts unfold out in a different world true you are a part of me true you're not supposed be so come away come away a scent, a whiff, a touch, a weary smile a wave- good bye, from the bar to the door -watch the gap in the wooden floor- i'm back till sundown a swift lift in a truck, a fuck, some crack a sly high in the sky -let my down easy, if you will no pride to fall back to |
