I Didn´t Even See Them At All

Walking up to me, is someone I’m meant to know
I don´t recall the face at all
so should I turn and go

smothered in a jumper
I don´t believe I know the fear
she’s asking me where I have been and I’m thinking who is this

how can it be that you know me so well

?? me I don´t think the work is turning to my eyes
she´s just a dream of electric knives, so and then she starts to cry

how can it be that you know me so well

I just can see what you meant to mean to me
I’m meant to smile at every stranger in the street
do I have to shake hands with every person that I meet

she said my mum and dad and my girlfriend and my sisters
I look into the mirror and I can´t believe they’re sisters
so how can it be that I don´t see them at all
and more to me so I guess I stay at home

Sarah´s Not Falling In Love

Sarah´s not falling in love,

when I call you on the telephone, well you know
Sarah´s not falling in love
said come on over, no-ones home (Sarah’s not falling in love)
yeah you get in the door alright,
but when you wake, it´s a heavy sight (Sarah’s not falling in love)
you´ve been left out on your own (Sarah’s not falling in love)
when you take her to the picture show, you know
Sarah´s not falling in love
you have made out in the back row (Sarah’s not falling in love)
your walking her home that night
figure everything will be all right (Sarah’s not falling in love)
when you get to the door you´re left all alone
Sarah’s not falling in love

Christo

Keeping it under wraps
takes a lot, a little helping hand
keep a big secret, that we don´t understand
but don´t ask any questions
they´ll just unroll it
and smooth out the folds

Christo I wanna take you home
but I know, that it´s impractical
I can´t dismantle you
and set you up near the phone

now her hand is up
she tries to shield her eyes
looks at him hovering
as he covers up the sky
you can choose a flavour
they´ll just unroll it
and smooth out the folds

Christo I wanna take you home
but I know, that it´s impractical
I can´t dismantle you
and set you up near the phone

jumping up and down to measure up the clouds
Christo can´t decide to make it square or round
put the plans on the table
they’ll just unroll it
and smooth out the folds

Christo I wanna take you home
but I know, that it´s impractical
I can´t dismantle you
and set you up near the phone

Home Movie

You´re so groovy
in your home movie
I´m watching you
I’m watching you
you were young and groovy
in your home movie
I´m watching you
I’m watching you
I´m watching you
in your home movie

How Could You Fall For Johnny Depp

Wynona you’re so great, buy me a coroner
and I listen to the stories all night long
but you never phoned, and I´m home alone
how when I you ?? again and again
why Wynona
why Wynona

I never see you on the beach
did you never go out
that´s just the way you are ??
in the Rolling Stone but you weren´t alone
how could you like it, I just don´t know
why Wynona
why Wynona

I see you every night but at home alone
you won´t me have it again and again
but you never phoned, cause I just don´t know
when we could have been the best of friends
why Wynona

Clean Hands

Well I´m washing my hands with you for the last time
I´m real close to you but it’s a big lie
well you took our hat and I ain´t got it more
I found you attractive, well I got bored
I´m gonna have to lose some contact with old friends
you gave me like the first you know it´s gotta end
well you showed me heaven, but it´s just a hell
I thought about that the taste of a smell
brought me to destruction, lowest reaction
talking to myself, to live a lie
you know it´s the last time, it’s the last time

I know it´s obvious you saw it too
with all his emotion, has something new, but I don´t know

well I´m washing my hands of you for the last time
and I was totally straight and who´s wasting time
your body´s aching from head to toe
the need I have to overthrow
the others I have to let go
tomorrow I stand alone, I don´t need you now
you know, it’s the last time

Lonely

Don´t pull it against me
don´t push me too far
you know we´re talking about the greatest thing
and so I there you are, and here I am ??
there´s another world in my eyes and you know it’s too beautiful to describe
well I showed my daddy today
I won´t be lying you tomorrow
all the words and fashion have no debt
you’ll be free of sorrow
should be down ?? by your wall
??
the time is right we’re going to bury the hatches now
??
??
well, who’s lonely now
??
??
?? Well isn’t it funny how I found out…

Trouble Stuck

?? for me said and talk to that girl
try as you might, but she puts herself for fight
breaking patience, throwing chairs and breaking up
stuck for words, like bubblegum
sticks to the sole, the audience
when he´s begging on the telephone
but she much him mess but you gimme a call

but she looks to you in a certain way
and it could be gold and it could be stayed
see ?? but you never know
but you never could see her on your own

boy meets girl, your trouble stuck, like bubblegum

Eye To Eye

No way against my better judgment
I train the bar on you
just read my lips my self indicator
and it´s what we always can do

my picture for your picture
my sticks like crazy glue
I gave myself into a corner, and I feel a handing too
when will we see eye to eye
you make it hard with that disguise
when will we see eye to eye

make a deal out in your garden
I come apart now where this is
I don´t know why you said that
but I know exactly what you mean
when will we see eye to eye
you make it hard with that disguise
when will we see eye to eye
you make it hard with all your lies

Peggy

I´m broken, but I´m on the mend
stop thinking, about the end
all these minutes I´ve wasted
trying to work myself out
ain´t got no more time, for any self doubt
I just had to prove to myself
that there´s more to love, then just one girl

well here comes Danny
you know, he´s gonna tell me
it´s good to see you out
yeah I´ve been locked up too long
but inside that place
you know I´ve been haunting myself with her face
life´s short, you talk as I light a cigarette
long enough you know that I´d rather die now, then live forever
you tell me I don´t seem quiet the same
oh, but I´m happier now then ever before

hey Danny, how’s Peggy
ah that´s good to hear
what? She´s getting married
ain´t that weird
but I think I´ll better be going now
you know, so many things to do
hey send my love to Peggy
and you look after you

you know I used to love that girl
more than I loved, I feel sad
but I´ve just had to prove to myself
you know I just gotta prove to myself
that there´s more to love then just one girl

Round Up

You don´t like my face
I sit to unfold
and I try to remember
put me on spice
now it´s your chance to choose
you like make her and I do it too
take the foundation
breaking hands up stars
used to rub it all over
just to rock….

The Shining

I see you shining
laying on the wall
while you´re reclining
I´ve started my fall
don´t hit the bottom
don´t land at all
flowing upwards
to the top of the wall
on top of it all
flowing upwards to the top of the wall
on top of it all
watching you reclining and then I started to fall

Slide Show

These are some of the slides that we never showed
turn a light off in the room, pull the curtains closed
these are some of the slides that we never showed
make some room upon the couch and the pillows go around
these are some of the slides that we never showed slide show
here´s one of you catching water
in a resort hotel somewhere in Japan
over exposed by the neon signs
somewhere, there is our name
written real big in the sand

Fade

Fade, just go ahead and fade
just take a holiday
run out of days to play
so you can fade
yeah go get on your way
there´s little left to say
you call this a holiday
a chance to run away
it must have been homemade
fade, it must have been homemade
this postcard from afar
spend hours cramming cards, so you can fade
there´s little as to say, you always ??
a chance to run away
so you can fade
