blue monday

how does it feel to treat me like you do?
when you've your hands upon me
and told me who you are
i thought i was mistaken
i thought i heard your words
tell me, how do i feel
tell me now, how do i feel

those who came before me
lived through their vocations
from the past until completion
they'll turn away no more
and i still find it so hard
to say what i need to say
but i'm quite sure that you'll tell me
just how i should feel today

i see a ship in the harbor
i can and shall obey
but if it wasn't for your misfortune
i'd be a heavenly person today
and i thought i was mistaken
and i thought i heard you speak
tell me how do i feel
tell me now, how should i feel

now i stand here waiting...
i thought i told you to leave me
while i walked down to the beach
tell me how does it feel
when your heart grows cold

who's joe?

hey joe what you're doing?
it seems like it's all going wrong
there's a storm in the sky passing over
and it looks like it's going to be strong
you've got eyes like an old wounded soldier
they cry tears to the losts in the wind

hey Joe
what are your gonna do?

i looked for you
i'll get you home
wherever you go
whatever you do
i've got to find you
i've got to find you (whatever you do)

i looked for you
i'll take you there
wherever you go
whatever you do
i've got to find you
whatever i do (whatever you do)

hey joe what you're doing?
they say you don't care anymore
you had your heart [hurt?] by a woman
now it doesn't work anymore
she said that you had it coming
that you were no good from the start

hey Joe
time to go home

i looked for you
i'll get you home
wherever you go
whatever you do
i've got to find you
i've got to find you (whatever you do)

i looked for you
i'll take you there
wherever you go
whatever you do
i've got to find you
whatever i do (whatever i do)

ceremony

this is why events unnerve me
they find it all, a different story
notice whom for wheels are turning
turn again and turn towards this time
all she ask's the strength to hold me
then again the same old story
world will travel, oh so quickly
travel first and lean towards this time

oh, i'll break them down, no mercy shown
heaven knows, it's got to be this time
watching her, these things she said
the times she cried
too frail to wake this time

oh i'll break them down, no mercy shown
heaven knows, it's got to be this time
avenues all lined with trees
picture me and then you start watching
watching forever, forever
watching love grow, forever
letting me know, forever

thieves like us

i've watched your face for a long time
it's always the same
i've studied the cracks and the wrinkles
you were always so vain
well, now you live your life like a shadow
in the pouring rain
oh, it's called love
yes, it's called love
oh, it's called love
and it belongs to us
oh, it dies so quickly
it grows so slowly
but when it dies, it dies for good
it's called love
and it belongs to everyone but us

i've lived my life in the valleys
i've lived my life on the hills
i've lived my life on alcohol
i've lived my life on pills
but it's called love
and it belongs to us
it's called love
and it's the only thing that's worth living for
it's called love
and it belongs to us
it's called love
yes it's called love

oh, love is found in the east and west
but when love is at home, it's the best
love is the cure for every evil
love is the air that supports the eagle
it's called love
and it's so un-cool
it's called love
and somehow it's become unmentionable
it's called love
and it belongs to every one of us
it's called love
and it cuts your life like a broken knife

temptation

oh, you've got green eyes
oh, you've got blue eyes
oh, you've got grey eyes
and i've never seen anyone quite like you before
no, i've never met anyone quite like you before

heaven, a gateway, a hope
just like a feeling i need, it's no joke
and though it hurts me to see you this way
betrayed by words, i'd never heard, too hard to say
up, down, turn around
please don't let me hit the ground
tonight i think i'll walk alone
i'll find my soul as i go home

each way i turn, i know i'll always try
to break this circle that's been placed around me
from time to time, i find i've lost some need
that was urgent to myself, i do believe
oh, you've got green eyes
oh, you've got blue eyes
oh, you've got grey eyes
and i've never seen anyone quite like you before
no, i've never met anyone quite like you before
bolts from above hurt the people down below
people in this world, we have no place to go
oh, it's the last time
oh, i've never met anyone quite like you before
oh no, i've never met anyone quite like you before

true faith

i feel so extraordinary
something's got a hold on me
i get this feeling i'm in motion
a sudden sense of liberty
i don't care 'cause i'm not there
and i don't care if i'm here tomorrow
again and again i've taken too much
Of the things that cost you too much
i used to think that the day would never come
i'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
my morning sun is the drug that brings me near
to the childhood i lost, replaced by fear
i used to think that the day would never come
that my life would depend on the morning sun...

when i was a very small boy
very small boys talked to me
now that we've grown up together
they're afraid of what they see
that's the price that we all pay
our valued destiny comes to nothing
i can't tell you where we're going
i guess there was just no way of knowing
i used to think that the day would never come
i'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
my morning sun is the drug that brings me near
to the childhood i lost, replaced by fear
i used to think that the day would never come
that my life would depend on the morning sun...

i feel so extraordinary
something's got a hold on me
i get this feeling i'm in motion
a sudden sense of liberty
the chances are we've gone too far
you took my time and you took my money
now i fear you've left me standing
in a world that's so demanding
i used to think that the day would never come
i'd see delight in the shade of the morning sun
my morning sun is the drug that brings me near
to the childhood i lost, replaced by fear
i used to think that the day would never come
that my life would depend on the morning sun...

bizarre love triangle

every time i think of you
i feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
it's no problem of mine but it's a problem i find
living a life that i can't leave behind
there's no sense in telling me
the wisdom of a fool won't set you free
but that's the way that it goes
and it's what nobody knows
while every day my confusion grows
every time i see you falling
i get down on my knees and pray
i'm waiting for that final moment
you'll say the words that i can't say

i feel fine and i feel good
i'm feeling like i never should
whenever i get this way
i just don't know what to say
why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
i'm not sure what this could mean
i don't think you're what you seem
i do admit to myself
that if i hurt someone else
then i'll never see just what we're meant to be
every time i see you falling
i get down on my knees and pray
i'm waiting for that final moment
you'll say the words that i can't say

60 miles an hour

i don't know if i told you
but i'm seeking sanctuary
you'll never guess the things that i do
i'll have the devil round for tea
don't you know that i'm here beside you
can't you see that i can't relax
when i saw you in my rearview
you could've stopped me in my tracks

i'll be there for you when you want me to
i'll stand by your side like i always do
in the dead of night it'll be alright
cos i'll be there for you when you want me to

you can take me to an island
ride across the stormy sea
we can worship pagan idols
there together you and me
why don't you run over here and rescue me?
you can drive down in your car
why don't we both take a ride and turn that key
we'll drive at 60 miles an hour

i'll be there for you when you want me to
i'll stand by your side like i always do
in the dead of night it'll be alright
cos i'll be there for you when you want me to

vietnam

hey
vietnam

yesterday i got a letter from my friend
that's fighting in vietnam

and this is what he had to say:
tell all my friends
that i'll be coming home soon

my time is up some day in june
don't forget he said
to tell my sweet sweet mary
her golden lips as wweet as cheries

and it came from
vietnam

it was just the next day
his mother got a telegram
it was addresses from vietnam

now mistress brown she lives in the usa
and this is what she wrote and said
don't be alarmed
she told me the telegram said
but mistress brown
your son is dead

and it came from
vietnam

somebody please stop that war now
i said the harder they come
the harder they fall one and all

hey now what you doing

hey now what you doing
don't go down the road to ruin
look back at where you came from
count to ten before you go wrong

you have the brightest future
writing songs on your computer
but you couldn't walk the extra mile
and now your life is running wild

you've gotta hold your head up high
you know it's not too late to try
you've gotta lift that heavy load
you've gotta get back in control

the days you've said to me
what is it that your eyes see
is it love or is it hate
banging on an opened gate

hey now, who's that with you
what's that thing i saw him give you
turn around don't come no closer
you took it from my shoulder holster

you've gotta hold your head up high
you know it's not too late to try
you've gotta lift that heavy load
you've gotta get back in control

why don't you put that gun right down
before you kill the love you found

hey now what you doing (what you doing)
don't go down the road to ruin

turn

it's a hard way to come home
you've got me on my knees
the walls are tumbling down
the falling night believes

listening through months and years
i can't forget that you were here
i feel your presence everywhere
in the corner over there

turn your eyes from me
it's time for me to go
across the hills and over the sea
i want you more than i know

it's a wild world out there
and nobody gives a damn
in cold blood we don't care
and we don't want to understand

i'm sitting here alone at night
my sleepless eyes are open wide
what do you want me to say
what we had has gone away

the sky is high the road is long
show me what i should have done
what do you want me to do
take it all away from you

turn your eyes from me
it's time for me to go
across the hills and over the sea
i want you more than i know

turn your eyes from me
it's time for me to go
across the hills and over the sea
i want you more than i know

guilt is a useless emotion

just another day in the week
waiting for an opportunity to step in front of me
maybe i'm losing my mind
Searching for another place in another time

real love can't be bought
it is wild and it can't be cought
real love can't be sold
it's another color than gold

(i need your love) i just wanna buy it
will you help me find it
how can you deny it
you've just gotta try it
something that you gotta know
my love for you i wanna show
i'm telling you that i belong

standing on top of the world
thinking at the joy you bring when you do that thing to me
you sure know a lot for a girl
you can bring the good times back get me on the track

real love can't be bought
it is wild and it can't be cought
real love can't be sold
it's another color than gold

i just wanna buy it
will you help me find it

something that you gotta know
my love for you i wanna show

jetstream

(it's only one more day)

can you wait
my plane will be arriving shortly
right there at the gate
i pray that you'll be waiting right there for me

this time could be what
we've both been searching for
our whole lives waking up
and coming back for more

(leave your baggage behind, you won't need it tonight, enjoy your flight)

j-e-t (j-e-t)
you are so good for me
you are my jetstream lover

dracula's castle

what's the matter here?
something ain't right
tell me it's not true
tell me it's all right

there was time i'd run around for you
get down on my knees
i swear it's true
but you came in the night
and you took my heart
to Dracula's Castle
in the Dark

now i've gotta tell you
now you've gotta know
i want you to stay
but you're gonna go
don't leave me alone
you'll tear me apart
you're in control

so goodbye love
you were not real
you came to stay
but now you leave
i can't explain
the way you feel
we once stood high
but now we kneel

you can't keep on running
how far'd you think you'll get
you got the world if you want it
i ain't done with you yet
i work hard just to keep you by my side
every day and almost every night
in the end you took away my heart
left me alone

so goodbye love
you were not real
you came to stay
but now you leave
i can't explain
the way you feel
we once stood high
but now we kneel

so goodbye love
you were not real
you came to stay
but now you leave
i can't explain
the way you feel
we once stood high
but now we kneel

morning night & day

one time didn't do it
two times didn't feel quite right
i didn't know where i was going
i just knew that i would be alright

i woke up in a druken haze
the sun shone to my window ??
i said that i'd never do it again
what kind of fool do you think i am?

it happens
it always seems to happen
morning night and day
i just want some action
give me satisfaction
send me to my ??
morning night and day

i had a good time late last night
i didn't think it would ever end
i walked home in a broad day light
couldn't get a cab at half past five

one drink wouldn't do it
two drinks are far too much
i didn't know what i was doing
i ate the floor and a pile of dust

it happens
it always seems to happen
morning night and day
i just want some action
give me satisfaction
send me to my ??
morning night and day

so if you think that it won't get you
well think again friend 'cause it's not true
in my case, it was not my fault
other people made that call

one time didn't do it
two times didn't feel quite right

it happens
it always seems to happen
no matter what i say
morning night and day
i just want some action
need some satisfaction
before it gets too late
send me to my ??
morning night and day

i told you so

it's been ten long years since i've been home
i've been waiting here with nowhere to go
it's an occupation i don't like
but it pays the rent and turns on the light

i told you so
it has to be
cut loose news and runaway with me
we'll go out every night
i'll be there by your side
and we'll all get high down the ...' side

if i hate the job and i hate the place
but i must stay for your pretty face
it's a f*** reaction i can fix
cut me with those free ?? tricks

i told you so
it's a crazy world
for a mixed up guy
and a no good girl

and i told you so
it's a crazy world
for a mixed up guy
and a no good girl

(take her, take the world)

i told you so
it has to be
cut loose news and runaway (runaway) with me
we'll go out every night
i'll be there by your side
and we'll all get high down the ...' side

(take the world)

krafty

some people get up at the break of day
gotta go to work before it gets too late
sitting in a car and driving down the road
it ain't the way it has to be

but that's what you do to earn your daily wage
that's the kind of world that we're living in today
isn't where you wanna be
and isn't what you wanna do

just give me one more day
give me another night
i need a second chance
this time i'll get it right

i'll say it one last time
i've got to let you know
i've got to change your mind
i'll never let you go

you've got to look at life the way it oughta be
looking at the stars from underneath the tree
there's a world inside and a world out there
with that on tv you just don't care

they've got violence, wars and killing too
all shrunk down in a two-foot tube
but out there the world is a beautiful place
with mountains, lakes and the human race
and this is where i wanna be
and this is what i wanna do

just give me one more day
give me another night
i need a second chance
this time i'll get it right

i'll say it one last time
i've got to let you know
i've got to change your mind
i'll never let you go

just give me one more chance
give me another night
with just one more day
maybe we'll get it right

i'll say it one last time
i've got to let you know
if i could change your mind
i'll never let you go

waiting for the sirens' call

what does this ship bring to me
far across the restless sea
waiting for the sirens call
i've never seen it here before

there she plan the lonely trail
getting through the breaking winds
drifting slowly from the coast
she is lost forever more

we all want some kind of love
but sometimes it's not enough
to the wall and through the door
with a stranger on the shore

i won't desert you
i don't know what to say
i really hurt you
i nearly gave it all the way

i've got it all
cause you were not the one
i don't know where to turn when you're gone
when you're gone

gotta catch the midnight train
first to paris then to spain
travel with a document
all across the continent

city life is flying by
the wheels are turning all around
get on board we can't be late
our destination cannot wait

all the stars and all the worlds
filling up this universe
can never be as close as us
we never shine as bright or

i won't desert you
i don't know what to say
i really hurt you
i nearly gave it all the way

i've got it all
cause you were not the wrong one
i don't know where to turn when you're gone
when you're gone

how many times must i lose my way, hey
how many words do i have to say, hey
what can i do just to make you see
that you're so good for a man like
a man like me
