Gone Forever 03:14
I've been dreaming too much, I've been thinking too much I've been wasting my precious time I've been dreaming of you, I've been thinking of you Longing for your touch I've been a foul for you, just for you Wasting my precious time And now that I know that you're gone forever I'm sort of relieved as well Makes me wondering why I really thought that you would be here forever Has it all been a ly Or am I learning something clever It's been quite a ride, I've had some lonely nights But now I can't say I regret it It's been worth the time, considering all Although there've been quite some gruesome moments I've been a foul for you, just for you Wasting my precious time And now I know that you're gone forever

Nightrider 04:07
I've been driving all night long I've been pushing the limits and now it is dawn Gonna see this sweet lady Gonna take her by surprise Gonna see this sweet lady She won't expect me, so I'd better knock twice On the highway I was feeling alright But now I'm moving closer, start to feel uptight I'm on my way to you And now I'm thinking what to do If you don't want to meet me If we don't get along If I have nothing to tell you If we just don't get along But now there's no excuse left To turn around once again Baby, baby, now we met it sure feels fine We've been talking all day long, walking along the Rhine Baby, baby, now we're sitting in the car Moving back to the city, the distance seems so far You smile at me, I smile at you And there's nothing we need to do

Just For Me 03:38
When I see that smile on your face I realize that it's just a phase You're going through these different stages And I am not involved at all When your eyes have this darkish glare I'm afraid that you don't care You're all alone in your secret world Where everything must be so dark But there's always a moment that the door is wide open And you take a step just for me Just for me So careless and free Forgetting yourself Just for me And then comes yet another phase And I will try to give it a place You're just going through the motions again Barely aware of what's going on

Skin Deep 03:01
Everytime I'm hearing you say That you're going to make a difference I'm trying to figure it out What you're on about What makes your world go round I don't have no ground to stand on My life's nothing but a rimple like and no more My doing's just a cat's paw on the water I'm living on the surface of this void But we gotta keep going on We're trying to make the best of it And I can't deny I'm feeling fine it's not that my life is over It's just that I can't see The point of making it more than it is I prefer to be a bubble On the surface of het sea

Somewhere hidden deep down in our broken hearts Under a pile of pieces, left-overs from the past There's a space that can't be filled That can't be lost It's the part of us that can heal us We tend to forget about this place We tend to fixate on what's in front of us But what really matters is embracing us from the back And despite all the pitfalls And despite our perpetual betrayal All the mistakes, the stabbing in the back, The worship of a God that doesn't exist All the misery that we created ourselves There will always be the healing silence of the heart The secret that has always been there

Sunday morning, late out of bed Making me a breakfast, taking time to read the paper I don't want to think of Monday I forgot about Saturday I'm walking on a tightrope, trying to keep on going Thinking of quitting for quite some time But I know I'll keep on going I'm riding on a prayer It''s keeping me going It's keeping me straight in line I'm still hoping to find a better way again To make my living easy, to find a way out of here
7.
Beggar 03:35
Baby, baby Why don't you show me your home Why don't you take me, take me in the warmth of your home I've been walking in the rain for far, far, far too long Baby, baby Why don't you give me a sign Why don't you want me, why don't you take me inside I've been walking in the rain for far, far, far too long Troubles in the city, troubles in our hearts When we don't come together soon You urge everybody to make a move So why don't we start with me You know all the pitfalls, you know me so well I shouldn't beg you to let me in But the rain keeps on falling, I'm cold to the bone Why don't you show me some mercy
8.
There's a dark sky above us The signs of a storm The signs we should take more seriously Now we still got the time To take the right precautions But it seems that we prefer To go ahead the same way Straight to a total destruction Of the world that we live in Of the world that we need to survive The sky is turning black And the storm starts to build up There's nowhere we can hide Even our hearts seem to be dark We seem to have lost what makes us human We need to make it, make it better We need to make a change, change the world right now Before it's too late we need to change our ways We need a change before it's too late
9.
I know this woman, she's a natural beauty She's a stunner without even knowing When you see her It will knock you down and out When her green eyes gaze at you, you will feel so alive When she's dancing she touches the sky And her hips make me feel nauseous When you see her You'll understand what I mean When her lips start talking to you, you will feel so alive But she ain't aware of what she does She's just a tough mean little lady
