Last Time

When I see you again
it´s gonna be the right time
when I see you this time
you know it´s gonna be like the last time
all over again

another train ride
another band
I can´t wait for this time to end
cause, it all goes so slow
when you´re on my mind

you said, don´t change (don´t change your mind)
it will all go by (go by with time)
you said don´t change your mind for me, oh no

but now I´m walking up the stairs
gonna be the right time
I´m not got to go for nobody else
it´s wrong inside
don´t tell me I´m wrong

you said, don´t change (don´t change your mind)
it will all go by (go by with time)
you said don´t change your mind for me, oh no

when I see you again
it´s gonna be the right time
when I see you this time
you know it´s gonna be like the last time, last time
it´s gonna be just like last time, all over again

Crayon Cafe

Spilling out your problems
at the Crayon Café
and I´m spilling my coffee
cause there’s nothing much to say
you wanted this and you wanted that
I gave you the world, and you threw it back

I’ve seen worse situations than yours
like just the other day I ran into George
he was looking for a present that he couldn´t afford
for a girl who was just so totally bored, poor George

so go ahead, pretend that you´re looking for a change
don´t pretend there are people who can make this change to your life
cause it´s not right

now you say that it´s so confusing
how will you choose
and who will be the leaders
and who will lose

some one turns from the next table
his name I didn’t catch
he impress you for your small talk
you think you´ve met your match
and while the orders taken, you´re talking politics
do what you like, cause I´m gonna have another drink
but don´t let him deceive you
no don´t play up to his game
I´d like to say the same to him, because you are to blame
just change your own life
and start a new life

Dying (So Long)

I´m dying just to see you
I´m trying just to be with you
and taking such a long time
but now I´m dying to be with you
so tell me why, do I,
have to wait, for so long
just to see you, again
with all these times and troubles
when nothing seems to grow
I look into the future
and what I see, I don´t know
with all these things we´re coping
when nothing ever works
think about the time I had
thinking of only dirt

And So The Story Goes

And so the story goes
Carla stood alone staring out of her window
dreaming of the past
she started to laugh and I started to listen
and so much was said
and so much was sad
she did it to make me feel bad
she said "Hey, leave me alone"
then when Carla walked out of that door
I never saw her again.

And so the story goes
Heather stayed at home and played her piano
believing we´ve been wrong
out came a song of sadness and sorrow
when she sang it to me
I said we were right
don´t be ashamed of last night
she screamed "Hey, leave me alone"
then when I walked out
Heather never ever saw me again.

And so the story goes
I´m here on the phone
and I´m listening to Heather
but I´ve heard it all before
for in my hand it´s Carla's letter
and so much was said
and so much was sad
it´s just another dream that I had
I said "hey, leave me alone"
so I locked the door
and I never saw the sunshine again
