Waiting for winter
03:38
|
|||
|
I'm waiting for winter
summer didn't bring any fun
the sun just took my breath away
I couldn't get anything done
I'm waiting for winter
dark nights will cover my face
rain and snow
everything cold
gives the world some time to complain
Waiting for winter
the season with the white red face
Waiting for winter
the season with the hazy shade
I'm waiting for winter
don’t want to walk this sunny street
the longest day came and went
it didn't stay for me
I'm waiting for winter
a cup of chocolate with whipped cream
stories in the cold dark night
gives the world some time to dream
I'm longing for winter
a sleigh instead of a swim
and maybe in winter
I can have a life without him
I am waiting for winter

Sandcastle
03:08
|
|||
|
I built a castle in the sand
but I couldn't wait
it had to end
before the sea or the rain came
It's always the same old story
I hate the circus, it leaves town
too afraid of too much glory
because it's losing bound
That's why we never dance together
we only move side by side
I'm too afraid my darling
of another pain
another fight
This song is for all the friends
I’ve lost along the way
some I have killed
some just couldn't stay
This song is for you
you’ve tried to walk with me
I wanted to make you laugh
I've only made you bleed.
I built a castle in the sand.

Transit Zone

|

|
Transit zone
nobody’s home
people looking for a plane
People talk
people run and walk
strange
how everybody looks the same
Transit zone
11 pm
I’ll phone home
as soon as I can
Last boarding call
a little girl is lost
is lost in no-man’s land
posters and shops
with chocolates and books
news from the world in a paper stand
Transit zone
11 pm
I'll be home
As soon as I can

Halfway
03:46
|
|||
|
This story is a lie
but a great one to believe in
you and me both know
truth can be boring
A truce needs a fight
an enemy you can rely on
you and me we both know
a bad girl is never lonely
So I want you only
I want you only
Halfway there, halfway home
so I’m nowhere, really nowhere
halfway hell, halfway gone
guess I’m nowhere, I know I’m nowhere
Blinded by the light
at the end of the tunnel
trying to crawl my way up
selling friends by the pound
look what I’ve found
look what I’ve found
Halfway there, halfway home
so I’m nowhere, really nowhere
halfway hell, halfway gone
guess I’m nowhere, I know I’m nowhere
And what about you?

Midnight Girl
02:48
|
|||
|
Don't you think we're getting too old for this
lifelong learning
little wiser, so it seems
don't you think we should settle this
once and for all
Can't you see it's way past our bed time
forever young
can be painful to the eyes
can't you see we should settle this
once and for all
Don't want to be your midnight girl
Just a booty call away
Don't want to be your midnight girl
But you know
I'll be there anyway
We're no vampires and we don’t stay teens
we're no werewolves
there's no moon to be seen
can't you hear the howling
we should settle
once and for all
Don't want to be your midnight girl
Just a booty call away
Don't want to be your midnight girl
but we both know
I'll be there anyway
Late night call
Late night text
Late night roll
Don't want to be your midnight girl
Just a booty call away
Don't want to be your midnight girl
but we both know
I'll be there

Get Out
03:09
|
|||
|
There’s a world outside your window
but you’re afraid to get out
dare to smell the dawn of a new era
come on and make me proud
Get out, get out, slow down
Get out, get out, slow down
You think it ain’t that easy
I’m sure it can be done
while you’re still running
you can’t see what’s going on
You’ve been running all of your live
joined the race at an age of five
keeping up was the way to go
and now I want you to take it slow
I’ve been to New York,
I’ve been to LA
there’s a world outside these cities
and I believe it’s here to stay
Get out, get out, slow down
Get out, get out, slow down
Let’s slow it down
Let’s slow it down
Let’s slow it down
There’s a world outside my window
I want to walk with you a while
join me and smell the morning
it’s the dawn, the slowing down
Let’s slow it down, let’s slow it down, and get out
Let’s slow it down, let’s slow it down, and get out

Naive
02:04
|
|||
|
I want to be naive
tell me stories to believe
there’s some truth in every lie
I want to stop asking why
I want to be naive
Don’t want to know it all
so, if we’re heading for a fall
I tell you my friend
if we’re that close to the end
just let us have a ball
So let’s dance
and pretend
that we like it
and maybe, one day,
we will like it for real
just wait and see
I want to find some peace
I want to catch some sleep
I’ll get back to you soon
maybe Friday afternoon
I want to be naive

Kingdom Come
02:43
|
|||
|
The world ain’t what it used to be
I just can’t find a place for me
I want a kingdom
of my own
a little kingdom
with a throne
so get down on your knees
for me
Ain’t got a horse
ain’t got a mule
but believe me
I’m ready to rule
I’m fed up
with what is wrong
my kingdom come
On your knees (get down)
on your knees (get down)
on your knees (get down)
on your knees (get down)
for me
Abandon taxes
forget the law
let’s have freedom
after all
a little kingdom of my own
to call home
Ain’t got an army
but I believe
a kingdom
will come to me
if you’re ready for a change
remember my name

King's New Fool
03:01
|
|||
|
So he said you're an angel on earth
so he said you're a flower surrounded by dirt
so he said you remind him of his wife
so he says he’ll stay with you for the rest of his life
It's strange, I’ve heard this too
I know what it means now
the king has a new fool
So he says you have talent you have style
you can be sure he'll change his mind in a little while
so he says from now on the sun will always shine
honey, soon the rainy season will arrive
Because he said it to me too
I know what it means now
the king has a new fool
So you think he's telling you the truth
I can't blame you, I believed it too
maybe I'm wrong and this time it will last
but I wouldn't dare to take this car for a test.

My Baby Boy
02:32
|

|
My baby boy
he’s just so helpless some times
he just can’t lose most of the times
I let him win
My baby boy
he is so handsome to see
he feels so nice to me
my baby boy
Oh, come over here and kiss me twice
just sit down for a little while, oh my
my baby boy
My baby boy
he thinks one day he’ll be a man
he just can’t understand
it’s only a fairy-tale
My baby boy
He is so nice to me
So I see you in my dreams
my baby boy
my baby boy

5'o Clock in Memphis
04:11
|
|||
|
It’s 5 o’clock in Memphis
and I can’t get no sleep
I’m looking at the past
it doesn’t help me
for things to be
halfway through the story
I don’t think a record will ever come
it’s 5 o’clock in Memphis
and I’m writing another song
My baby sleeps beside me
dreaming of a little girl
we are really glad to have her
to share our little world
I hope she’ll be as pretty
as her mama is to me
it’s 5 o’clock in Memphis
means so much to me
it’s 5 o’clock in Memphis
and I can’t get no sleep
And I’m feeling much older
than my father has ever been
it’s 5 o’clock in Memphis
means so much to me
it’s 5 o’clock in Memphis
and I can’t get no sleep
I can’t get no sleep
can’t get no sleep
I can’t get no sleep
