The girl from downstreet
the sun was just about to replace
the rain, me walking downstreet
it's the first time we met
well, it changed my life
I never had the feeling that I was
missing too much
but now
think I'm losing control
and when she turned her head I could hear
voices in my forehead
which I could bet
haven't been there before
and the voices tell a story, it's true
this could be real love
and now I'm aware
this is a beautiful day
what a beautiful day
the sun was just about to replace
the dark and starless night
and i was walking home
thinking of his red shoes
but i didn't quite remember the colour
they might as well have been blue
guess if i wanna find out
i have to see him again
and then the phone rings
ring ring ring ring
hello who is there
the girl from downstreet
oh, how are you?
would like to meet you
so let's meet downstreet
well, that's what i will do...
so all that I was doing so far
was acting jerkish
but now I can feel
blood running down my veins
and when she turned her head I could hear
voices in my forehead
which I could bet
haven't been there before
and the voices tell a story, it's true
this could be real love
and now I'm aware
this is a beautiful day
what a beautiful day

Keep you in my pocket

Keep you in my pocket
I keep you in my pocket
I carry you around
your bound to share my presence
cause I don't let you out
I leave you on my desk
when i go to work
people ask why I'm distracted
i say i have a bad day
I keep you in my pocket
I keep you locked
this will probably kill me
still I keep you shut
I keep you in my pocket
I spin you around
your bound to share my feelings
cause I don't let you out
before I go to sleep
I lock you up safely
when I get up in the morning
the same procedure starts again
I keep you in my pocket
someday you have to come out
tell me that you like me
that it finally comes about
what i have been dreaming of
during long and sleepless nights
so endless and painful
as they have been
I keep you in my pocket
I keep you locked
this will probably kill me
still I keep you shut

Emily said
Emily said, I'm so happy
she builds a bridge with her bricks
and knows how to destroy it
Emily's room, so tidy and clean
with teddies on her bed
at night she likes to talk to
but then she falls down the stairs
with the hands around her knees
and hopefully
she lands on her feet
Emily said, I'm so pretty
she puts make-up on her face
and knows how to get rid of it
Emily's clothes, so tidy and clean
she wears a light-blue skirt
with tiny flowers on the top of it
but then she falls down the stairs
with the hands around her knees
and hopefully
she lands on her feet
put the bricks in the box
leave the candy in your socks
get out of here
put the music on and the volume up
let yourself go, let yourself go
Emily said, I'm so lucky
she wears a smile on her face
and knows how to make use of it
Emily's world, so tidy and clean
all the bad things
have been kept away from her
but then she falls down the stairs
with the hands around her knees
and hopefully
she lands on her feet
put the bricks in the box
leave the candy in your socks
get out of here
put the music on and the volume up
let yourself go, let yourself go

War on solitude
I'm ok
I'm all right
doing great
I'm doing fine
one more night
acting cool
no more fool
make things happen
make things work
one more day
but please don't go
i just declared
a war on solitude
you're the captain
of the ship
but please don't go
i just declared
a war on solitude
winter's gone
time has past
I'm not alone
no more depressed
one more week
summer day
no more pain
make things happen
make things work
one more year
but please don't go
i just declared
a war on solitude
you're the leader
of the troops
but please don't go
i just declared
a war on solitude
and when the years have passed
You`ll see
if you won the war
if you won the war
And then you wake up
And you know
Where you belong to..
but please don't go
i just declared
a war on solitude
you're the fighter
in front row
but please don't go
i just declared
a war on solitude

Get on your horse

Get on your horse
Get on your horse
and leave this place
cause when I am finished with you
you will no longer have a face
Get on your horse
and ride until the sun will rise
cause when I get you
I scratch out both your eyes
You don't know
how deeply I am hurt
And you don't know
how deep I'm in the dirt
Get on horse
and get off my land
Cause when i find you
I cut off your right hand
Get on your horse
and leave as fast as you can
Cause when I'm finished with you
You will no longer be a man
You don't know
how deeply I am hurt
And you don't know
how deep I'm in the dirt
Yeah you don't know
what that means
and you don't know
I'm not as innocent as it seems
Get on your horse
and get out of my sight
Cause when I see you
I damn sure start a fight
Get on your horse
and get out of my life
caise when I meet you
I'm not sure if you survive
You don't know
how deeply I am hurt
And you don't know
how deep I'm in the dirt
Yeah you don't know
what that means
and you don't know
I'm not as innocent as it seems

Come on and dance with me
so put the lights down low
and turn the music on
it's been too long that we danced together
and when music sounds
like a carneval
let the song become your lover
why don't you meet me
right at the dance floor
where the band plays your favourite song
why don't you dance with me?
why don't you dance with me?
come on and dance with me
shake your head shake your hips hey hey
and when the music starts
shake your tambourine
it's been too long that we danced together
let the music take
the control of your soul
let the song become your lover
why don't you meet me
right at the dance floor
where the band plays your favourite song
why don't you dance with me?
why don't you dance with me?
come on and dance with me
shake your head shake your hips hey hey
can you feel the noise?
when the guitar cries
it's been too long that we danced together
and when the singer sings
about your lonley heart
let the song become your lover
why don't you meet me
right at the dance floor
where the band plays your favourite song
why don't you dance with me?
why don't you dance with me?
come on and dance with me
shake your head shake your hips hey hey
