His Cry

His Cry
And after these three nights he cried
‘Wondered why she didn’t come back
And that without a fight
Didn’t suspect what was wrong,
Couldn’t come along
Believed that she was the one
Who had done wrong
Someone did me wrong...
When someone asks him
Why he’s so sad
He just answers really mad
Unable to reflect
He’ll never realize the fact
That her quitting
Was only the final effect
She felt fooled
‘Caused by his behaviour
When he didn’t realize
What he’d promised her
Their deep emotional heartfelt love
So she decided to just run off

Find Yourself

Find Yourself
Find yourself on a lonesome road
Ease your mind surrounded by the cold
Will you ever turn the way back home
The route is planned by your inner voice
The crossroads signs and spontaneus choice
Travellin’ without pursuing goals
Escape the place that is so well-known
People who are sayin’ that your way is shown
Searching for a deeper meaning of life
Far away from all that density
Starts the deep search of liberty
Noone knows what the consequences might be
Maybe you’ll stumble into a wild party night
Where social conventions seem to be out of sight
People put down all that you ever learned ‘bout love
A higher step of conciousness
on the way to the sky above
Highly educated guys sittin over there
Endless discussin’ ’bout how to share
The goods of all mankind
But they’re only here to critisize
Find yourself on a lonesome road
Ease your mind surrounded by the cold
Will you ever turn the way back home
Far out there, will there ever be
People with whom you fully agree
How many compromises can your heart bear

Gone Far Away
Can you please forget all my lies
Would you help me get through the night
I need somebody to save my life
To lead me through the flickering light
I’m blind to it deep down inside
Be the one who can see, be my guide
I swear to you, now and then,
my core it won’t hide
But please just help
me get through the night
Showing all the scars of past fights
Explaining all the escapes I’ve tried
Inspire me with your inner sight
I long with romance for a knight
I plunge into your words
about what is right
Tryin’ to flee
towards your promising side
But I can hear my cries
from deep down inside
That I‘m the only one
who can save my soul tonight

Separation

Separation
You said you’d love me – insanely
But in fact you never did
I was lonely all the time,
Cried rivers, cried the rain
Last chance, show me your love and I’ll stay,
I’ll wait, yeah I’ll wait,
I’m waiting to feel your affection.
Will it really appear someday?
I’m sure it’ll never come true
I wait with bated breath:
When will your eternal love arrive here
I await it eagerly, I await it eagerly,
I await it eagerly, eagerly, eagerly eagerly ‘till death
In fact I’m forsaken day and night
Cryin’ these rivers, cryin’ the rain
You never really cared for me
But now here’s my stoplight
Now I’m gonna free myself because…
There’s so much I would rather do in my life
Than be exhausted by you
Stop fadin’ out my animated spirit
Show you what I would do without you
Leave me now, please set me free
Or tomorrow I’ll be gone, away from you
Your bags are packed. Out the door!
I’m gonna find somebody true
I’m gonna do so much better without you...
When you’re gone far away, hm…
Far away, far away, far away (Echo)
Na na na na na na na na...

The End of the Road

The End of the Road
Here we are at the end of the road
Here we were so happy through the years
Here we stand surrounded by the shreds of our life
My love, it’s the bitter truth: it’s over
So sad, so sad to see love go bad
But this painful’nd heavenly time will line my skin
For the rest of my life
I’m curious, curious to how new lives will change us
We were young and wide-eyed when we first met
Became strong-willed people instead
Here we are at the end of the road
Here we were so unhappy through the years
Here we stand surrounded by the shreds of our life
My love, it’s the bitter truth: it’s over

Zu Spät

Zu Spät
Ich steh morgens auf ne halbe Stunde vorm Losgehn
Da bleibt kaum noch Zeit in den Spiegel zu sehn
Ein Frühstück schnell in der Hast reingetan
Ich hetze los und denke dann,
Morgen wird der Wecker früher klingeln
Morgen werd ich ganz in Ruhe in die Küche tingeln
Morgen wird n entspannter Morgen sein
Morgen werd ich nicht werd ich nicht wieder die Letzte sein
Ich bin mal wieder viel zu spät
Wieder viel zu knapp dran
Zu spät - ich bin mal wieder viel zu spät
Alles nur in der Hast getan
Die andern sehn mich genervt an
Ausreden? sind jetzt nicht dran
Was soll ich tun? Ich krieg es einfach nicht hin
Verzeihung? - Hat auch kein’ Sinn... Ich nehm mir vor:
Morgen wird der Wecker früher klingeln
Morgen werd ich ganz in Ruhe in die Küche tingeln
Morgen wird n entspannter Morgen sein
Morgen werd ich nicht werd ich nicht wieder die Letzte sein
Doch heute bin ich wieder
Viel zu knapp dran
Zu spät - ich bin mal wieder viel zu spät
Alles nur in der Hast getan

Why Me?

Why Me?
Why me? Tell me your reasons why you want me
Why me? Why am I the woman at your side
Why am I the one you love and no other girl that you see
Why me? Why me? I’m so lucky with you
I’ve been dreaming about these moments all my life
I didn’t expect we’d meet this way
Well, you know, I was a sad one, I was a sad one
– ‘S long as I only dreamed about this flame
Now that you’re my love, now that you’re my love
This is what we found

Turn Down Your Lights

Turn Down Your Lights
Turn down your lights
Turn down the voices inside your stereo
Turn down the television dazing you
Set me free
Turn down your fears
Turn down your reservations
Turn down your bad memories
Set me free
Fill my inner emptiness with your presence tonight
Fade away my loneliness with your arms that I’m layin’ inside
Destroy my pain by being with me
Take all of me and set me free
Turn down your prudence
Turn down your distrust
Turn down your insecurity
And I’m gonna set you free
I’m gonna fill your inner emptiness with my presence tonight
Fade away your loneliness with my arms that you’re layin’ inside
Destroy your pain by being with me
Take all of me and I’m gonna set you free
Turn down your lights (tonight)...
Let’s fill our inner emptiness with our presence tonight
Fade away our loneliness with our arms that we’re layin’ inside
Let’s destroy our pain by being with each other
Take all of me and I’m gonna set you free

I Really Like You (But I don’t love you anymore)
I really like you – but I don’t love you anymore...
I really like you – but I don’t love you anymore...
Remeberin’ our deep spiritual affinity
Remeberin’ all the talks we held - revolutionary
Remeberin’ all the sunshine and even our bittersweet summer rain
But now we’ve gotta realise it won’t come back again
I really like you – but I don’t love you anymore...
I really like you – but I don’t love you anymore...
Never forget the funny names we dared
Never forget all the films that we once shared
Never forget how tenderly we arranged our flat
Don’t regret any second, nothing - nothing we had
But when our seventh autumn came, you went out to the sunshine…
I stayed here weathered a hard winter, you know it’s a long cold time
While you lived in the freedom of a white dove in the south
I chopped my way out of the heavy undergrowth
…And I realised that I
I still really like you – but I don’t love you anymore...
I still really like you – but I don’t love you anymore...
