Ballad Of Mr. K.
04:14

|
He knows everybody, everybody’s knowing him
He knows how to play guitar and the secrets caught within
You may call him a businessman, you may call him a jerk
But never try to fool the man – you might get hurt
He lives inside the strangest world – a world you’ll never see
He gives you all a man can give – but nothing is for free
Tell him he’s the only one who knows what life’s about
Tell him he’s the only one to know
And when at last you follow him, make sure there is no doubt
He has been around the world, I know, he ain’t shy
You never heard about him? Come on and give a try
Listen to the sound that makes a young girl’s mama fear
Catch a glimpse of his guitar, for he might disappear
He lives inside the strangest world – a world you’ll never see
He gives you all a man can give – but nothing is for free
Tell him he’s the only one who knows what life’s about
Tell him he’s the only one to know
And when at last you follow him, make sure there is no doubt

I Can't Give You My Love
03:51

I met you one day at the magasin
Apparently we fell in love
You said you’ve been waiting for someone like me
I said „I can’t give you my love“
You’re young, you’re pretty and beautiful
You’re everything I’m dreaming of
You won’t understand but I tell you the truth
No, I can’t give you my love
I can’t give you love, but I’m dying for love to help me
I can’t give you love, but I’m longing for you to love me
You ask me for love and for honsty
But you don’t know life can be tough
I’ll never forget ´bout the way that we kissed
But I can’t give you my love
You ask me if I could be anything
But anything just ain’t enough
One look in my eyes can say more than some words
No, I can’t give you my love
I can’t give you love, but I’m dying for love to help me
I can’t give you love, but I’m longing for you to love me
It’s easy to be just a fool like me
I’m not the one you’re thinking of
Forget about all of the good times we had
'cause I can’t give you my love
No, I can’t give you my love

My Deep Blue Sea
04:17
|

|
My deep blue sea – is the darkest place
That you’ll ever know, it’s in my soul (oh no)
My deep blue sea – is the lonliest place
Don’t you ever try to get in – you’ll be lost below
My deep blue sea – is the only place
Where I hide all my unspoken words
Won’t you come ´round here
Turn a light on for me
Make it brighter, so you can see
What’s happening in my deep blue sea
My deep blue sea – it’s all in my dreams
It’s so hard, it seems, to leave this place and go
It’s just extremes – and it’s so damn low
Help me out of here, you can make it, I know
Show me green – wash the night away
Let me stay with you all of the time
Show me your love light
Turn a light on for me
Make it brighter, so you can see
What’s happening in my deep blue sea

When I Think Of You
04:11
|

|
It’s been a long time that I saw you
It’s been a long time since you’ve been here – with me
I still recall the things you told me
Could you be still in love with me?
These special moments last forever
I hear you calling out my name again
And ever since the day you left me
It seems I’m falling all apart,
So please release this broken heart,
I can’t sit still – I’m insane
When I think of you – caress me in your arms
When I think of you – you lift me with your charm
When I think of you
I’m way too deep inside this memory
It’s much too close though it could be long time gone
I dream of love that could not hurt me
´cause it seems I’m falling all apart,
So please release this broken heart
I can’t sit still – I’m insane
When I think of you – caress me in your arms
When I think of you – you lift me with your charm
Oh, where have the good times gone, I can’t believe I’m all alone
Oh, won’t you come back to me and set me free and let me be who I am
When I think of you – caress me in your arms
When I think of you – you lift me with your charm
When I think of you

Waiting For You
04:05
|
|||
|
Night’s calling in and the city’s asleep
You’re feeling weary, you’re counting the sheep
But they won’t cool you down
I’m waiting for you
The radio’s playing a song that we know
You’re trying to ignore, you’ve got somewhere to go
And you turn off the light
I’m waiting for you
Somebody’s waiting just for you
You wait for the morning, the sunrise again
To be caught in the shadow of another man
You’re too weak for letting go
I’m waiting for you
Your memory reminds you of what used to be
From deep down inside, you long to be free
It’s the secret I keep
I’m waiting for you
Somebody’s waiting just for you
The sun fills the sky, you’re exposed to the light
You’re tryin’ to escape but there’s nowhere to hide
From the love I could give
I’m waiting for you

One more night on my own, no one to pick up the phone
One more night all alone, the girl/man that I loved, she/he is gone
She/he said, she/he couldn’t love me no more
There’s nothing left for me in store
That I’d be into something else all the time
I see her/him steppin’ through my door
I will not feel her/him anymore
No longer playing all these games, we are free
One more night on my own, no one to pick up the phone
One more night all alone, the girl/man that I loved, she/he is gone
No longer longin’ for release
No disappointments, no belief
No longer yearnin’ for the love of my life
And now the night has come to stay
Tomorrow’s gonna be a brand new day
There’s nothing left for me to do, but to give in, to give in, to give in
One more night on my own, no one to pick up the phone
One more night all alone, the girl/man that I loved, she/he is gone

Ship Sailing In
02:41
|
|||
|
Lord, I’ve been a travelling man
On the road to be just free
I’ve been all around those places where
you’ll never intend to be
From the highest heights to the lowest depths
Lord knows the state I’m in
He knows everything has to come to end
as the ship comes sailin’ in
Lord, I’ve been a searching man
been curious naive
Like a child exploring love and theft
but never lost belief
Now I realize my childhood’s gone
Lord knows the state I’m in
And he knows all good things come to end
as the ship comes sailin’ in
Lord, I’ve been a sinnin’ man
most of all I harmed myself
No consciousness, no sympathy
could give me company to hell
And I gaze upon the things I’ve missed
Lord knows the state I’m in
All the good things, bad things come to end
as the ship comes sailin’ in

Free
04:02

She – she’s not the kind of girl to give you all her love
Free – to be the only one that you are thinkin’ of
She – she’s not the kind of girl to show you all her love
See – she’s still the only one that you are dreamin’ of
She – she’s got the power to ignore your feelings, boy
Me – I know that kind of girl, she’s not worth waiting for
Dream – but you will never hold this girl inside your arms
Dream – don’t waste your time – oh boy – surrender to her charm
Listen to me, hear what I say
You better forget her from today
Don’t you forget the things I said
Don’t waste your love – you will get mad

The rain is strong – the leaves are dressed in water
And when it’s gone the girl looks for her mother
She keeps the leaf in her hand and she understands
The sun will rise again
The sky is cryin’ and so do I
A single tear is falling from my eye
The streets are filled with heavens’ tears
I’m left alone with all my fears
And still I’m here within myself
And noone seems to understand that I’m down & out
I can’t remember the days when sunlight shined upon my face
I can’t remember – oh, so long –
Something in my world went wrong
You ask me what I’m waiting for
I’m movin’ slowly to that open door
I’m paralysed – there’s nothing more to say
I’m moving all along the way
And still I’m here within myself
Yes, I’m here within myself
And noone seems to understand that I’m down & out

Spread The Word
04:55
|
|||
|
Any word’s already spoken
Any note’s already sung
Any heart can’t be unbroken
As we thought when we were young
Melodies dressed in passion
Time will tell if they last on
Novelties of bursting fashion
Sharing moments of joy and fun
Spread the word that’s inside your head
Speak out loud and look ahead
Show your heart with all your might
You know it’s alright, it’s alright ...
See the rain drippin’ the ocean
Spread your words and make them rhyme
See the girl hiding emotion
Be the sun that makes her shine
Tomorrow’s news remain in silence
It’s up to you – your time has come
Make it bright, make it shining
Make belive that you’re the one
Spread the word that’s inside your head
Speak out loud and look ahead
Get the meaning so hopefully
And don’t you fail within discovery

Keep On Playing
04:18
|
|||
|
When all my colours turn to greyscales
When my belief is out of sight
When all mistakes occur in details
I know as long as I keep on playing – it’s alright
You know as long as I keep on playing
As long as I keep on playing
You know as long as I keep on playing - it’s alright
There’s too much love I gave for free
But time goes by and memory’s fading
Somehow I seem to blind to see
That as long as I keep on playing – it’ll be alright
You know as long as I keep on playing ...
True love may take you much too high
I thought this love could never die
And now it’s gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone – forever gone
You know as long as I keep on playing ...
