Hello Hello
He sat her down and said " everything will be ok.
You gotta go your own way baby yeah, you gotta go"
She looked away and asked: Are you really sure about this
Its gonna be a though road out there yeah, there's gotta be a way
But all that he did was kiss my lips and change my name
Remembering is only for the ones who can forgive
What would I do without my beloved truth?
He looked down and wondered if she's gonna be ok
She seemed so lost, she seemed like Yekkel and Hide
So in haste to find her name
What would I do to feel alive and be allright
It always seemed worthwhile not to be and just to see
What could I do without my beloved truth?
Hello hello hello
Did you see the sky tumble when I fell out of it
God I never knew what to do to be true
Hello hello hello
Do you know the worlds crawling while we are a sleep on it
We don’t really know what to do to be good
Hello hello
He had told her not to be in haste too
Life's gonna be useless if you run it apart
If you run too fast the world will make you stop
All that I did was run too fast, how could I see
Remembering is only for the ones who can forgive
What would I do without my beloved truth?
Well hello hello….
Hello hello hello
Hello hello.

If I Ever Knew
Do you remember growing up
Like a too sudden change it was blowing us up
And we were so dedicated to the dreams we had
We were so stimulated by the loves we left behind
Do you remember Charlie?
Charlie said "time is just a healer"
But we said "time completes your phrase"
And as we were praying for the next one
Cause writing songs used to fill our days
And if I ever knew I would be missing you so much I
Should have laughed a little more.
I should have laughed a little more
Do you remember the first time
We felt a little hungry for love
And we were laughing and chatting
And try to come across…
Do you remember when Billy-Ray came
And he stole my heart and you called me a fuss
If I ever knew I would be loving him so much I
Should have dared a little more
I should have dared a little more
But billy-Ray was a preacher's son
Who would travel around until his father found his home
And we were running around to seek for
his birds and his bee's, what they're doing to me
And there's nothing that I would not do for
You
Would'nt do for you
No there is nothing that I would not do for you
Do you remember growing up
Like a too sudden change it was blowing us up
And we were so dedicated to the dreams we had
We were so stimulated by the loves we left behind
If I ever knew
I would be missing you so much I
Should have dared a little more
I should have dared a little more
And if I ever knew I would be missing you so much I
Should have dared
A little more…

Stay
Jacob is calling
The wind sang his name
Mother earth
Made sure it would rain
Cause baby is turning
His heart couldn't stay
Like those old playingcards
he shuffled his ways.
Why could'nt he stay
Of all the things I dare to be, I'll be your crusader
Why couldn't he stay
Of all the things you need to be, will you be my baby to stay
And Lucy was crying
Her heart was stuck
with all the pain there is
since baby took off
Winter came passing
Turned into spring
Lucy still crying too much
started to sing
Why couldn't you stay….
And all was still the same
when fall drops its rains
Lucy still stared above trying to gain
Some words from her baby
Still gone and asleep
All that all was left to do
for her is to weep
Stay
Stay
Why could'nt he stay
Of all the things I dare to be, I'll be your crusader
Why couldn't he stay
Of all the things you need to be, will you be my baby to stay.

One Way Ticket
Au, he said as I cracked his past
Blood ran in his eyes
My tears had their effects
Cause Love don't seem to wash it all away
Water seems to wash it all away
How I see he lost his youth
Way too much too early and way too much too chose
Cause love don't seem to wash it all away
Water seems to wash it all away
I got a one way ticket
Cause this road is too long
And love aint all around me
Got to get going on
I got a one way ticket
Cause everything is gone
And love aint all around me got to get going on
Can I draw a dirty line?
Will I be Specific?
Poor me some wine
This century has just began
Give me some time and I'll ask for the drum
Cause love don't seem to wash it all away
Water seems to wash it all away
I got a oneway ticket…
Cause when love is gone
The road is long
Cause when love is gone
It all don't seem so easy to keep on going on..
I got a one way ticket
Cause this road is too long
And love aint all around me
Got to get going on
I got a one way ticket
Cause everything is gone
And love aint all around me got to get going on…

Monday Morning

Mondaymorning I wake up
I give him a little kiss
And I go go go
To the bakery down the street
Buy bread, buy cake
And I go go go
To the supermarket to
Buy this, buy that
I buy a little chocolate
And I go go go
With the car to the garage
And I talk to the man,
I drink his louzy coffee,
I ask him stupid questions,
I pay him too much
And I go go go
To my friend at the Barneybar
And I talk a little to my friend,
But my friend, he's way too busy
So I just grab the newspaper,
I read some nasty headlines,
I don't wanna read nasty headlines
so I look a little around me
and than I see see see
That’s my boyfriend across the street
I kissed him this morning
But he didn’t kiss me back, And I can see now why
Cause he's kissing her
And he really seems to like it and I know know know:
I'll never be, never be
I'll never be the same

Long Way Gone
She sits and waits
Staring at her reflection
In the darkness of her window
she sees his shade sometimes
illusions come and go
is he finally coming home
but he walks over bridges
crossing empty streets
passing whores and taxidrivers
in his mind he runs the hills
running bare feet
drowned in his illusions
and how she wants to know why they
just keep on repeating why she just can face to leave him
and he, he follows all the signs
but all his words they fail her to show
what he already knows
He's a long way gone
A long way gone a long way gone
Now there are no more lies to be done
She sits and waits
The sun is almost rising
A new day has began
And she stumbles into the room
Wakes her little children to tell that father went away
He walks over bridges crossing empty streets
Passing whores and taxidrivers
In his mind he runs the hills
Running barefeet
Drowned in his conclusions
He' a long way gone…

The Weather Is Changing
I hear the rain on the window down the hall
I'm staring in front of me
I'm trying to find that hole
Alice from Wonderland jumped through it
I couldn't do it
Couldn't find right mister Rabbit
To push me through it
I hear the rain on the window down the hall
You're standing naked in my room
You say you' re hungry
I order white fish
You just want your sandwich
Story of the wife, glory of my live
The weather is changing
Hear the wind its crying louder
I know I can't make it
I've got so much to do
The weather is changing
There's something in the air
That makes me long for fun arcades, disco songs and hitparades
Billy-jean in a dancing scene, funny men that won't complain
I hear the rain on the window down the hall (tic tic)
Your voice still echoes echoes in my head and in the bedroom
I'm incapable of smalltalk, just cannot do it
You ask me why the sun won't shine
Well, honey let me tell you why
The weather is changing….
Listen Honeybunny
Everytime when I hear the rain drip dripping on my window
And I hear you preaching
And I hear you complain
I know I gotta go searching
I gotta go searching for that right mister Rabbit
The weather is changing…

Rainstorm
It's all about a rainstorm
When I forget to give my reply
Its all about infidelity
When I smile and shut my mouth
And kiss his feet
He sits there right in front of me
While he eats his forgotten meat
Sarcasm is dripping of the walls
His patronizing vocabulary
Is plugged in, at repeat
He thinks I'm naked
I'm just bare
Except for my needs
Have you seen the writing on the wall
when I forgot to tell you my name
have you seen Clockwork Orange
did you know that my heart couldn't take it?
Have you seen the writing on the wall
When I forgot to tell you my name
It's all about priorities..
Suddenly she takes my hand
As a tear rolls down her cheek
Her sorry life is dripping at my feet
And I'm waiting for the man to come
I'm waiting for that masterpiece
About making dinner and what is cooking
Stayd underneath
Have you seen the writing on the wall
when I forgot to tell you my name
have you seen Clockwork Orange
did you know that my heart couldn't take it?
Have you seen the writing on the wall
When I forgot to tell you my name
It's all about priorities..
Its all about you and me…
Yeah
Ooh
Out of nothing he shakes his head
As he steals my question to reduce
Our dialogue into his monologue
And he does not care to notice
that his repetitions are my grief
It’s like my dear friends
He does not know what I need..

This Is What Life Is
Sometimes I feel how your heart gets distracted
The heart and the head
How does it feel to be a cliché
Why are my eyes not a reason for crying
For getting abstract and losing your mind
I don't believe that your love is trustworthy
You sing and you dance
But you never approach
The deaf and the dumb and the blind do agree
That you shut them out cause you simply believe
This is what life is
Sometimes you lose
This is what life is
Some people lose
I always felt there were bigger fish to fry
I always felt I had to give it a better try
You said they broke the mold I was made of
You said
Silly princess
You're too much to involved
Ref
All I wanna give you is do you dare to be a dreamer
All I wanna give you is do you dare to believe
All I wanna give you is did you know
that time won't be a healer
Without you
And now you're an old man
Who's left by his wife
Cause you dilly-dallied
To become
The man who's inside you
And you're sick to the bone
And you are rarer than most
And I've got to choose whether I'm silly
Or like you
