Behind These Walls
02:48
|
|||
it's been a long, hard way
back to the present
back to the things and feelings
that are pleasant
but i'm not pleased about what
you are telling me
it's been along, long time
to go without it
so many nights awake
to think about it
and now there's nothing
left to feel
ref.
behind these walls
the drama it is growing
our love's a fire,
is it still glowing?
can you tell me
what's happening here
to me and you
don't try to look
behind these curtains
never try to guess
these endless burdons
i have to tell you again
that we will never pass
another day arises
from the darkness
another day
to assault the fortress
an interpersonal war
that no one can win
ref.
behind these walls
the drama it is growing
our love's a fire,
is it still glowing?
can you tell me
what's happening here
to me and you
behind these walls
the drama it is taking us
and all the doubts and feelings
they are shaking us
is there someone to reach a hand
to me and you
behind these walls
the love that we've been sharing
builds the wall
that we are tearing down and
is there someone to get us out
here, me and you
behind these walls
the drama it is growing
our love's a fire,
is it still glowing?

it hasn't happened really often
only from time to time to time
that i've understood immediately
what you mean when you say
it doesn't happen really often
just from time to time to time
that i feel love in here
where there's no love but fear
it may sound sad that way
when there is nothing else to say
but remember what i said
it is not that often
ref.
i don't care
what they tell me on my way
i will just go on lovin you
when you make me strong
from time to time to time
it doesn't happen really often
only from time to time to time
that you say what it is
what you really miss
it doesn't happen really often
only from time to time to time
that we find the perfect way
how i wish it would stay
not always up for good
this is why we could
not avoid the darker days
they're not that often.

Waiting
04:04
|
|||
waiting for the sun to shine
i am waiting
waiting for a friend to come
i am waiting
waiting for my heart to beat
i am dying
waiting for the girl to talk
i am waiting
waiting for a friend to come
i am waiting
sittin´ in park what do i do
i am waiting
waiting for the cars to drive
but they won´t drive
they´ve got no fuel and no life
waiting for the sun to shine
i am waiting
waiting for a friend to come
i am waiting
waiting for my heart to beat
i am dying

Dear E.
03:12
|
|||
happy voices from outside the house
my two girls are playing there
no need to say how proud i am
two or three years from now and then
they’ll be the same age
as we were when i was
so in love with you i cannot say
ref.
sometimes i think about
what could have happened
if things had turned out a different way
well, i don’t regret a single day
but, dear e.,
what would life be like then?
life has taken us to different towns
and into different worlds
we‘ve each been going our own way then
very few times our paths have crossed
it was so long ago
but i still wonder
what if why when and how

Can't Let Go
03:48
|
|||
somehow i'm still in what we used to share,
but i have to let go
rememberin' it will always take me back there
i just can't defend it
ref.
take care for what you say and
take care for where you go
take care for whom you talk to
take care for what you think
it's not a warning what i'm tryin' to tell you
i'm just worried about you
being helpless all alone somewhere out there
i just couldn't bear it
ref.
they say I'd better stay away from you now
i have to let go
they say i'd better look for somone new now
i have to let go
ref.
take care for where you go
take care for whom you talk to
take care for what you say and
take care for what you do
take care for what you think,
take care for what you think

you said we´re in a one way street,
and we‘ve been for a while now
the car goes far too fast,
and it keeps going faster
you said we took the wrong turn then,
no chance to change the direction
passing the cities, one by one
ref.
this is where we started from
this is where we’ll go
can’t you see wheels are turning
i’m still learning like before
you said that we could fall apart,
if we do not stop here
you said that i’m in charge
of what’s coming next now
the cities we don’t go to,
we’re only passing by
it’s like the view from a train
ref.
i think that all you said was right,
there’s nothing to add to
i think that it’s okay
what else should i say now?
no chance to
start from zero again now
heading on to what is next …

Into Your Sadness
04:43
|
|||
I can see a tear
running from your sad eye
but I can find no reason
for tears or for sad eyes
I can hear the word
comin‘ from your dry lips
but I don’t seem to comprehend
what you want to say
I can feel your fear
it is blurring your sad eyes
Let me lend a hand
to guide you from this dark place
ref.
I must dive into your sadness
to understand the reasons for your sadness
and bring you home again
I’ve always thought I could help.
Now it seems complicated.
You‘ve drifted off so far from me,
almost out of reach
Never said a word
you haven’t in a long time.
But can I break your silence
and make you laugh again?
I still feel a fear,
but it seems defeated
I’d love to read it from your eyes
that I‘ve got you back

From Another Position
04:12
|
|||
from here
i can see what everything is depending on
from here
i’ve got an overview over it all
leave the here and now behind!
take your place far from what´s concerning you
leave it all behind
and you will know what i meant when i said
ref.
can you see what i see – from that position?
the context of coherence – what is your position?
recognise the quintessence – from another position.
from another position, from another position.
now you
climb up the highest point around.
now you
choose a tower, a mountain or a building!
leave the here and now behind!
take place far from what´s concerning you
if you now look down on where you´ve come from,
you may understand what i meant when i said
ref.
can you see what i see – from that position?
the context of coherence – what is your position?
see the quintessence – from another position.
from another position, from another position.

Escalate And Fall
02:57
|
|||
your vision of this world
was so different from mine
the dreams that you had
they were different from mine
sometime you said
we could change the world
sometime you said
we could change our minds
is it true that the world seems
to be better now
is it true that the standards
have improved
when will you see
the other side
when will you realise
that we fall
|

10. |

if you watch out for the beauties of this world
you will never find a place
which could earn this word
which could ever earn this word
you can travel all around the world
you will never find a place
which is not destroyed
a place that’s untouched
there are footprints all over this world
everywhere you go
everywhere you go
there was someone before
ref.
are we too clever for this world
are we too clever for this world
it can’t reach our speed
it can’t reach our speed
if you wanna take a breath of fresh air
you must travel so far
so far away
to the end of the world
and there is always a point of no return
a point that you know
ist little name
simply starts with d
there are footprints all over this world
everywhere you go
everywhere you go
there was someone before

Tuesday
02:55
|

when we met
on a tuesday night
tuesday night it’s tonight
sitting in a cold room,
sitting by your side
don’t leave me for tonight
talking in a strange way
saw the glance of your eyes
cold, cold days, colder nights
just another glass,
hard words from your side
hard words
on a tuesday night
and it’s tuesday, oha
tuesday, oha
don’t leave me on a tuesday night
don’t leave me for tonight
