1. RAN OUT OF LUCK

So long since I`ve been near you
I`ve been busy doing nothing wrong
I once told you I`m drifting
from time to time from town to town
All these years I`ve tried not to give away too easily
what I can`t weigh or measure
the things that set me free

Don`t know what I`m doing here
Lost my head when I hit the ground
Don`t know what I`m doing here
I`m always losing something
Ran out of luck on my way back home

So long since I`ve seen you
I almost forgot your name
I`ve always tried not to worry
then most things stay the same
Guess I`ve seen too many faces
been drifting far too long
I`ve searched in so many places
for the things that make me strong

Don`t know what I`m doing here
Lost my head when I hit the ground
Don`t know what I`m doing here
I`m always losing something
Ran out of luck on my way back home

2. TURN AROUND AND LOOK

Nothing seems to go my way
Everywhere I turn people stare and I can`t believe the things they say
I am warm still feeling kind of cold
and these days I can see myself growing old

Who want`s to be my saviour
Who`s gonna tell me `bout the things I`ve done
Who`s gonna be there when I wake up
I turn around and look for you and suddenly you`re gone

Nothing seems to go my way
It`s not easy going nowhere when you`re not going anyway
I only need a friend I end up getting none
and these days I can feel my heart is going numb

Who want`s to be my saviour
Who`s gonna tell me `bout the things I`ve done
Who`s gonna be there when I wake up
I turn around and look for you and suddenly you`re gone

To the top

3. HOLD ON

I`m always cutting corners
to make it through the day
So many words unspoken
but I haven`t got the time to stay

The streets are full of strangers
I know them every single one
They fill my heart with sadness
like an old sweet song

Hold on
I got to stick to my own decisions
Hold on
I want to stay with the one I love

I`m always cutting corners
I`ve tried to find my piece
I`ve always had a fling with someone
I had so much to release

Hold on
I got to stick to my own decisions
Hold on
I want to stay with the one I love
Hold on
I got to stick to my own decisions
I want to do it all again
I want to see your face again

4. IT'S ALL RIGHT

I`m capturing the highlights too fast
in this city of concrete and glass
I want to dance `till the end of night
but I don`t know how long I will last
I got this feeling that I couldn`t live without
Will you be there when I`m going down
I got this feeling and it feels kind of good
when there`s no one else around

Baby it`s all right
baby it`s all right
Life is what you get when you`re living

I`m standing with my back against the wall
in this city of heartache and of trust
I got to do the things I got to do
I want to find the things I`ve lost
I got this feeling that I couldn`t live without
a life so full of shame
I got this feeling and it feels kind of good
when there`s no one else to blame

Baby it`s all right
baby it`s all right
Life is what you get when you`re living
Baby it`s all right
baby it`s all right
I could love you for a minute
but I will love you for a long long time

5. RAIN DRIFTS FROM THE SUMMER SKY

Rain drifts from the summer sky
I guess it`s one step at a time
The more I fail now the more I try
The more I lose the more I find

Take it easy
We`re just living
I guess we`re doing fine
You know we all end up as nothing
It just takes some time

There was a time I used to wonder
There was a time I used to care
about the things that made me stronger
and everyone I held so dear

Take it easy
We`re just living
I guess we`re doing fine
You know we all end up as nothing
It just takes some time

There are days to remember
there are days to regret
All the things we could die for
seemed so easy to forget

Rain drifts from the summer sky
I guess it`s one step at a time
The more I fail now the more I try
The more I lose the more I find

Take it easy
We`re just living
I guess we`re doing fine
You know we all end up as nothing
It just takes some time

6. QUARTER MOON

I want to see a queen but your eyes ain`t sparkling
I only see the devil in disguise
Strong words need a strong mind and then some silence
They never seem to hear you

See the quarter moon
then you`ll be home soon
The weight is on your shoulders
They put you in a frame
Can you feel the same
This could be forever
But I won`t stay for so long

Somewhere there`s a man with an untold story
somewhere there`s a man with a broken heart
He wants to be a joker but no one`s laughing
They never see the true you

See the quarter moon
then you`ll be home soon
The weight is on your shoulders
They put you in a frame
Can you feel the same
This could be forever
But I won`t stay for so long

To the top

7. THE DAYS ARE GETTING LONGER

I`m still thinkin` about the days
I`m still thinkin` in many ways
I`ll carry on
now that you`re gone
The days are changing colours

Don`t know how long you`ll be gone
I`ll keep my head high and stay strong
It`s in my heart
It`s been there from the start
and the days are getting longer

Life is like a big long ride
We`re drifting from side to side
It`s a long way down
and there`s no way around
and the nights are getting shorter
nights are getting shorter

Just knowing you`re talking about me
and the man I used to be
makes me want to start again
as a passionate man
Then living would be so easy

Life is like a big long ride
We`re drifting from side to side
It`s a long way down
and there`s no way around
and the nights are getting shorter
nights are getting shorter

To the top

8. STORMY WEATHER

Stormy weather
and the things you do
The sound of water
reminds me if you

This is it as we are walking
time disappears when you`re alone
This is it as we are walking
Our feet are gonna take us home
Take us home

Stormy weather
I want to walk you home
you know it hurts when you`re leaving
and the clouds take form

This is it as we are walking
time disappear when you`re alone
This is it as we are walking
Our feet are gonna take us home
Take us home

To the top

9. TONIGHT #2

Tears on my sleeves
writing letters that no one reads
Don`t know about you but I`ve been searching
I`ve had my dreams
but I don`t know your kind

Tonight
I want to see you tonight
I want to be yours tonight
if you only had some time

I`m weak and weary
I don`t think you know me well
Can`t stop what`s coming
I can`t hide the lies I tell
but I didn´t know your kind

Tonight
I want to see you tonight
I want to be yours tonight
if you only had some time

To the top

10. NO ONE'S REALLY THERE

When I wake up
with smoke in my eyes
I just know daylight`s wasted
When I wake up
I wish I did my best
Can`t forget how you tasted

Can`t you see
we`re dreaming back through life now
Can it be that no one`s really there
no one`s really there

Don`t you worry
Life is still the same
without trust without glory
Time is with us
Just let me count our days
you know we all got a story

Can`t you see
we`re dreaming back through life now
Can it be that no one`s really there
no one`s really there

We`re all stuck in a scene
not going anywhere
It`s nothing but a dream
no one`s really there

Can`t you see
we`re dreaming back through life now
Can it be that no one`s really there
no one`s really there

1. I DO

Maybe I’ve been here for too long
Maybe I just can’t see
How your world moves around me
And how it makes me feel
What about you are you madly in love
Or just a friend
I’ll dance on the moon till the morning
Wakes me up again

I do appreciate you
You do deserve a smile
I wanna give you all I got
But it might take a while
Yes I do appreciate you
Your light is shining through
I’ll find my way in the darkest night
Holding on to you

You call me from far away
I can’t hear you if I try
Cause I’ve been doing something wrong
And you just don’t know why
What about you are you madly in love
Or just hanging out
I’ll dance on the moon till the morning
Tells me what it’s all about

To the top

2. YOU KNOW BETTER

The sky is big and blue
Clouds are up my sleeves darling
No one lives for free or so you told me
Words that I don’t need
Words that I have kept for so long
No one speaks for free
Or so you told me

You know better
I’m yours now and forever
Living is easy
If you’ve got a life to live
You know better
I’m yours oh when you’re shivering
Loving is easy
If you’ve got someone to love
If you’ve got someone to love

Waiting for a friend
I can’t wait a day longer
He’s the only one that I want to talk to
Thoughts that I i don’t need
Thoughts that I have kept for so long
No one thinks for free
Or so you told me

To the top

3. DON'T STOP

I didn’t know what to do when you told me
That I was nothing but all you could have
I’ve tried to be one of those you believe in
I want to be one of those you can love

It really rains on the sidewalk this morning
But I don’t know where to go when I’m free
Last night I had the strangest feeling
So don’t stop I’m coming home today

I should have been more polite when I praised you
But I couldn’t find the right words in my head
You said nothing about crying and grieving
Guess this time I’ll be walking instead

I want to live
Live my life beside you
I want to give
All I’ve got to you
So please don’t stop
I’m coming home today

To the top

4. MORNING SONG

In the morning when the sun makes its shadows
My blood begins to rush
In the morning when you ask me how I’m doing
Your love can make me blush

Tell me how to do this
Tell me what to say
Show me how to spell it

Just tell me I’m okay for tomorrow
Allright for today
Yesterday was nothing
Far far away
I try to see the future
And I’ve tried to see the past
Now I would like to see the morning
With you

It’s a blessing and a curse when your heart nearly bursts
And your head is filled with wonders
You’re up and you’re down
And your last thought will be the first
To grow up to be the strongest

To the top

5. THE WORD THAT MAKES YOU SING

You don’t know where you’re going
What to do or what to say
Don’t know which way the wind blows
You just know it ain’t blowing your way
You cannot be there you cannot be here
You cannot be anywhere
You better go home
I guess you’ll find some loving there

We all know it ain’t easy to live a life alone
You always hear the minor in a sad sad song
You’re loosing it you’re loosing it
You’re loosing it again
The word that makes you sing
Is the same word that tells you nothing

I can see last night made you hard
And left you all alone
I can see last night made you even harder
With the same old things undone
You better stick to your friends
At least you know they care
Or you can join me I’m going home
I ‘ve got some loving there

6. HOW TO GET AROUND

Going out of business
I’m leaving town
Tired of being hungry
Just fooling around
No one ever told me
Life was going to be this busy

Time is running backwards
Time is running blind
I don’t know what to reach for
And i don’t know what I’ll find
No one ever told me
Life was going to be this busy

Wasting my time as it goes by
Leaving is never easy
Wasting my time as it goes
But i don’t know how
How to get around

Friday is a nightmare
Saturday is a hole
How come they give me nothing
When i want it all
No one ever told me
Life was going to be this busy

I just met this woman
She’s got bad thoughts in her head
She really tries to kill me
But I’m already dead
No one ever told me
Love was going to be this busy

To the top

7. DO IT RIGHT

Keep your head up high
You are the only one
It may not be like that in the morning
Changing days
And telling jokes about our time
Can’t you hear your concience calling

You got to do
What you got to do
Just stay the way you are
You can tell me
Whatever you want to tell me
You are my shooting star
Maybe it’s the end of a season
Maybe we just don’t need a reason
You got to do
What you got to do
Just do it right

Keep your head up high
Be proud of who you are
They will hate you anyway if they want to
Changing time
And telling jokes about our days
Today the joke is you

8. GOING DOWN THAT LONELY ROAD

Slowly growing older
And I’ve said it all before
But i could need someone to talk to
The sun still rises
But things are not quite what they seem
I can’t control myself
Awake or in my dream

Going down that lonely road
I wish i was going home
I would do it all again
If i just could be someone
It’s been like this for ages
Cannot hear a word they say
Crying on a sunny day

I could need a shelter
A place where i can hide
A bad wind is blowing
And I’m getting colder
There’s no one on my doorstep
And no one asks for more
I’ll walk alone
Like so many times before

To the top

9. THE GIRL WITH THE SUN

I just can’t wait to see you darling
Walking backwards and i can’t stand still
There is something about the way you’re smiling
And i think i know how you feel

Can’t sit down for a moment
Going places where i don’t want to go
Don’t know where my mind went
But i think that you’re for real

Still don’t know what to say
Hope you care anyway
I’m always taking the easy way out
Finding my place
You see the spark in my face
But i can’t see the things that you see
You’ve got the sun in your head

1 just can’t wait to see you darling
If there’s a place where no one knows who we are
We could go there finding
That we both know how we feel

Cannot waste a waking moment
Time stands still and i know who you are
Don’t know where my mind went
But i know that you’re for real

To the top

10. NO FLOWERS

I can touch the stars
They are hanging loose
Only got myself
And the life i choose
I can’t grasp your spirit
With my hand
I don’t see you from where i stand

No flowers grow by the seaside
You’re really killing me this way

I’ll be straining myself
Until the end of time
I don’t see you
As i cross the line
I don’t believe you’re happy
In my eyes
Only bring you down
With endless lies

I can touch the stars
They are hanging loose

To the top

1. MORNING SONG

In the morning when the sun makes its shadows
My blood begins to rush
In the morning when you ask me how I’m doing
Your love can make me blush

Ttell me how to do this
Tell me what to say
Show me how to spell it

Just tell me I’m okay for tomorrow
Allright for today
Yesterday was nothing
Far far away
I try to see the future
And i’ve tried to see the past
Now i would like to see the morning
With you

It’s a blessing and a curse when your heart nearly bursts
And your head is filled with wonders
You’re up and you’re down
And your last thought will be the first
To grow up to be the strongest

2. DON´T YOU HAVE A FRIEND

Faceless sorrows
endless days
There is no tomorrow
Colours
Timbers fade away
I´m no longer on your side

Don´t you have a friend
or someone you can talk to
Don´t you have the words
to tell me that you care
Can´t you see how changes
made me blind
I don´t need your solitude
I just need my time

Every hour
Every sleepy day
Anywhere you might be happy
Every cause
and every split and tell
All the wonders of the world

You´ll be home soon
and you know that I won´t be there
By the grace of the moon
Forget me
I won´t be there

3. ENDLESS SUMMER

I could have been someone elses story
I could have been someone elses train
I just want to see your face and glory
You came and washed away the stain

These days are endless summer
and these days are endlessly you
I could have been someone elses story
I could have been someone elses blue

4. LIKE A SUMMER THURSDAY (TOWNES VAN ZANDT)

Her face was crystal
Fair and fine
Her breath was morning
Her lips were wine
Her eyes were laughter
Her touch divine
Her face was crystal
And she was mine

If only she
Could feel my pain
But feelin’ is a burden
She can’t sustain
So like a summer thursday
I cry for rain
To come and turn
The ground to green again

If only she
Could hear my songs
’bout the empty difference
’tween the rights and wrongs
Then I know that I
Could stand alone
As well as they
Now that she’s gone

Her face was crystal
Fair and fine
Her breath was morning
Her lips were wine
Her eyes were laughter
Her touch divine
Her face was crystal
And she was mine

5. HEART OF COAL

It´s time to lose and win
and it´s harder when you´re longing
Don´t know where or how long I´ve been
Guess I have been growing
I want to wake you up
but you don´t even know you´re sleeping
Sometimes you don´t know what you´ve lost
Sometimes you don´t know what you´re keeping

Save my heart of cold
Save my dreams of old

I´ll be gone
for so long
Softly escaping everything
and you can stay for so long
I´ll be gone
for so long
Softly escaping everything
and you can stay for so long

Breaking ice and bones
and I´m suffering and smiling
The ones you love are the only ones
in happiness and wining
I want to wake you up
but you don´t even know you´re sleeping
Sometimes you don´t know what you´ve lost
Sometimes you don´t know what you´re keeping

I could lean on you for ages
I could really make you smile
I will sleep and make some changes
I could really make you mine

To the top

1. IT´S NOT THAT EASY

All this time
and all these ways
We talk about nothing
and we fight about old days
Seems to me
like some kind of pressure
some kind of circle
You live for tomorrow
and then
one day you´re dead

It´s not that easy to care
I didn´t meen to scare you
Under this burdon
this fire
It´s not that easy

All this time
and all this sense
You live to see the daylight
I live to see my friends
Seems to me
like some kind of passion
some kind of circle
You live for tomorrow
and then
one day you´re gone

2. HONEST

If you´re tracking down a hero
or searching for a friend
You can be mine honest
We´ll both die in the end

Well I can tell you that I´m sorry
and I can tell you a joke
I´m trying to find my way
through this strange strange land
I´m just trying to be a man

Honest

It´s always nice to see you
Nice to breath you in our loving time
I´m blinded by your beauty
every time I cross the line

I would like to tell you that I´m sorry
But I don´t think it would help us much
Cause I´m not sorry
I´m just trying to be a man

3. NO TIME WASTED

No time wasted
You´ll be fine
I´ve had enough of this
We´re devils in our time

No time wasted
How are you
and how can you sleep at night
when I´m lying next to you

No time wasted
Don´t hide your mind
From my point of view
you´re precious and divine

I could see it coming
I could see it coming
Where have you been my girl
I didn´t hear you
I didn´t hear you
I didn´t hear you call

No time wasted
You´ll be fine
I´ve had enough of this
We´re devils in our time

No time wasted
We´ll be fine
I´ve had enough of this
We´re devils in our time

4. HALF A MAN

I´ve been staring at the same
pale wall
for a life or a half
I´ve been looking for the same
old options
just for a laugh
If I only could be half a man
on a rainy day
Things used to be so easy
used to be so easy those days
If only life could be as simple
as the light of day

I´m not addicted to religion
I´m not addicted to pain
Cause I´ve got my own church
I´ve got my own church in my vains
If I only could be half a man
on a rainy day
Things used to be so easy
used to be so easy those days
If only life could be as simple
as the light of day
If only life could be as simple
as the light of day

I´ve laughed and I´ve cried
I´ve been driving myself to a peak
And the ghost that haunts me
lifts me up
and then it makes me weak
If I only could be half a man
on a rainy day
Things used to be so easy
used to be so easy those days
If only life could be as simple
as the light of day
If only life could be as simple
as the light of day

5. SLEEPLESS

Sleepless period
Like banging on a drum
Can´t make no desicions
and where´s the sun
I´m calling for the devil
I´m calling upon god
Your eyes are like water
and the water tastes like blood

Whatever I say
and whatever I do
will never bring me back to you
or get the good times back

Somewhere in the distance
Somewhere in this cloud
I´ll find my solutions
and cry them out loud
I´ve been dancing in a spiral
been dancing with a smile
I guess it´s time to settle
been dancing for a while

What you think can bring you down
The one you love can bring you down
The ones you love can bring you down

I can hear you calling
I can hear you sigh
You´re a ghost now
What you told me was a lie
So just leave me by myself now
I´m better off without
I can see clearly
What it´s all about

6. EVERY WORD

Every word you speak
I fill with wonders
and anywhere you seek
you seek me

What you see
is what you need
To sleep is what you should
These days have been good

You´re my little star
You´ll shine forever
And anywhere you search
you´ll find me

When all our tears have dried
we´ll smile together
Then every time you love
you love me

7. STRANGER

Watch the stars
and they come together
Strong and born in light
Never seen your hand
Never seen you as a man
You´ve given me the eye

You told me to walk with a stranger
I went down again
You gave me the heart of a stranger
And I go down again

Hear my words
how they sneak around you
and whisper in your ear
tell you what to do and why
for you to speak or to be shy
and never talk at all

8. CATCH ME (IF I FALL)

I´ve seen the world
and I´ve been the loser of your heart
I´ve seen the worldly freedom
I´ve been a loser from the start

Will you hear me if I call
Will you catch me if I fall
behind

We have lost the great lightness
We lost the spirit once again
Let´s avoid the deep darkness
I guess you go
and I remain

9. RIVER MERCY

Oh sweet mother
where have you gone
You´ve left me in this solitude
far too long
I sat down one day
not to rise again
Tonight I will lay me down
and never sleep again

Oh river mercy
what you´re holding down
Oh river mercy

Oh sweet brother
where is your soul and heart
oh sweet brother
have you lost your heart
To win or lose
has always been the issue here
You speak with a voice
I can not hear

10. COME TO ME

Come to me with moonlight
Come to me with joy
Come to me as you are
You come to me with joy

Remind me about tomorrow
Remind me about today
Remind me about your glory
and we will find our way

Why leave now
Why go
Why leave to tell
Strong as a woman
Why leave to dwell

Save me from your wisdom
Save me from your grace
Save me from hiding
Let me see your face

Listen to this voice now
and listen to these words
Listen to the thruth now
and you will hear the birds

To the top

1. LOVE YOU SIMPLY

I love you simply
cause I love the sea
I love you simply
cause I adore the river
I detest you
as a winthry storm
I detest you
as a winthry storm

So let it happen
let it rain
let it suffer
you´re in pain
My seven sins
and all of my goals
The way you want me
soft and cold

Love me, leave me, lose me
compare me with the best
Love me, leave me, lose me
to the rest
This cold fever
give me no regrets
And your love leaves me
nothing but paper

2. LET IT OUT

The way you move
The way you make my heart burn
You´re all and nothing
when you give me nothing
Passed out
Burned out
You only talk about yourself
Passed out

Let it out and make it easy
Life goes by and slowly passing
Let it out, let it out
Life goes by and I start walking

The way you move
The way you make my head spin
You´re all and nothing
when you tell me nothing
Passed out
Burned out
You only talk about yourself
Passed out

3. PILLOW

I´ve seen the blood on your white pillow
I´ve heard the dogs down by the rails
Is there a reason being mellow
You´re to precious for this

That´s the way it is
Oh, that´s the way it is
When the smell is gone

4. TONIGHT

You tell me I don´t talk much
You tell me I´m too shy
You tell me not to think much
You tell me I´m no good

So tonight I rather just be walking
Quiet by your side

You tell me not to talk much
You tell me I´m so shy
You tell me not to think this much
You tell me I´m no good

5. WITHIN WITHOUT

How is your life
are you all right with your affection
You keep on telling me
I´m far out
without any own direction
The words that make you pay attention
I´m a drop out can´t you see
I´m looking for a room
a place where I can be

Within
Without
Don´t raise your voice
you tremble when you shout

I need a bit of courage
your anger is rubbing of
We do no kind of loving
I think I´ve had enough
The words that make you pay attention
I´m a drop out can´t you see
I´m looking for a room
a place where I can be

Don´t raise your voice you tremble

6. TAKE YOUR COAT OFF

Take your coat off
if you feel too warm
Is it really this you´re living for
Take your coat off
if you feel too warm
Is it really this you´re living for

You say you have your time
Where nothing hurts and nothing rhymes
You will search and you will find
That nothing hurts and nothing rhymes

Take tour coat off
if you feel alone
Is it really me you´re looking for
Take your coat off
if you feel alone
Is it really me you´re thinking of

7. READING TIME

Reading time
I think this is a summer wind
I feel so very full of sin
in a way that I don´t know
Reading time
I hope this is a summer wind
It feels like my life begins
In a world that doesn´t show

Rainy days are over
Coming over me
Every shadow falls

Wasting time
Keeping distance is a summer thing
We never know what it brings
´till you´re safe ´till you are home
Wasting time
I wish I had a decent heart
I would make the evolution start
So I could see you again

8. SWEET

Every sunday morning
or any happy day
You´re my sunday morning
You´re my happy day

Cause you´re so sweet
This could be something to live for
You´re so sweet
This could be it

You´re my sun
You´re my rainbow
You´re my second chance
You and all your neighbours
I see them
How they dance

Cause you´re so sweet
This could be something to kill for
You´re so sweet
This could be it

You´re so sweet

9. CLAIRE

In your head
Your precious head
The waterfalls
I´ll walk this road anyhow
In your eyes
Your precious eyes
You see me Claire
I´ll walk this road anywhere

And the words I told you
was not really what I meant
In your sleep
I´ll kiss you in your sleep
In your sleep

In my head
My so called head
The waterfalls
I´ll walk this road anyhow
And in my eyes
my blinded eyes
I see you Claire
and I´ll walk you anywhere

And the words I told you
was not really what I ment
In my sleep
I´ll kiss you in my sleep
In my sleep

10. TALK TO ME

Is this the way
you face the fall?
Is this the way
you face a summerwind?
Is this the way
you face the fall?
Is this the way?

And if
you don´t want to talk to me
no more

Is this the way
you seek
the way you burn?
Is this the way
you try to trouble me?
Is this the way
you seek
the way you burn?
Is this your way?

11. HEY HEY

Hey hey
Are you ready
It´s a big boat you´re sitting in
Hey hey
Are you ready
Will you live when your life begins
Too drunk
to drink the table
I don´t think I´ll be able to see again
Hey hey
Are you ready
It´s a big boat you´re sitting in

When the world keeps turning around
and you don´t hear a sound
When you need me
I´ll be around

Hey hey
Are you ready
like a slow train
coming through the sand
No way
Can´t be steady
It takes a man and his dog
to build the world
Sweet sweet
Bitter bitter
a shade is all over your left eye
Sweet sweet
Bitter bitter
It takes a man and his dog
to tell a lie
