your hand full of hours - sand from the urns
a travelling companion - the secret of ferns from darkness to darkness - where shall i begin when whiteness attacked us - sewn under our skin and there were the stars that helped to navigate our souls with all my love - i went into the world from inside out - and i gave it all to you but i need your love - that was looking for me just on my lips look for your kiss and always i think where we might have gone if we'd never met inside this song our names are enciphered - but the words became true when i was the sun and you, you were the moon and there were the stars that helped to navigate our souls with all my love. . . |

a garden of fruit and flowers is what i embrace in ocean blue eyes, in each one's an island i'm stranded within your love and as i fall deeper than ever and as we kiss, we're each other's guide into the unknown where men do not return, where men do not forget the sweetest suicide, as if we don't exist but live the presence of angels, the inscense of indochine the quietness of movements, the slowness of africa a point of know return, no way out of here nothing compares to you anything goes and as i breathe deeper than ever i'm coming home, i'm coming home to the unknown where men do not return. . . |

Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst Are you gonna drop the bomb or not? Let us stay young or let us live forever We don't have the power, but we never say never Sitting in the sandpit, life is a short trip The music's for the sadman Can you imagine when this race is won Turn out all the faces into the sun Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune The music's played by the madman *Forever Young I want to be Forever Young Do you really want to live forever? Forever, you'll never Forever Young, I want to be Forever Young Do you really want to live forever? Forever Young. Some are like water, some are like the heat Some are a melody and some are the beat Sooner or later they all will be gone Why don't they stay young? It's so hard to get old without a cause I don't want to perish like a fading horse Years like diamonds in the sun And diamonds are forever So many advantages given up today So many songs we forgot to play So many dreams swinging out of the blue Oh let it come true * Repeat |

I switched it off because she told me so She's an investigator She's like an elevator Nobody told me we'd be all alone You know Somewhere my friend he'd left me In that red light zone You know She said: I've seen your deepest secrets, son They're just as lightning In the look of your eyes I said: I want you, baby, I said: I want some more I said: I never ever felt it like that moment before She's an assassin, She's melting steel in my heart But I long for more. She said: I want your body, She said: I want your soul She said: A fallen angel takes it but she'll never let go She's an invader She's from another world But I beg for more and more She's raising feelings cutting like a knife She's pouring fire into my liquid life There's no escaping from her mysteries, She gives my kisses of the strangest kind She says: I know you'll like it, So come over here She says: Just let that rhythm filter Through your body, dear And then she... She always did it and she always will She'll stay that hunter 'Till the end of time I said: I want you, baby, I said: I want some more I said: I never ever felt it like that moment before She's an assassin, She's melting steel in my heart But I long for more. She said: I want your body, She said: I want your soul She said: A fallen angel takes it but she'll never let go She's an invader She's from another world But I beg for more and more I said: I want you, baby, I said: I want some more I said: I never ever felt it like that moment before She's an assassin, She's melting steel in my heart In my heart...

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies Hoping for the best but expecting the worst Are you gonna drop the bomb or not? Let us die young or let us live forever We don't have the power but we never say never Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip The music's for the sad men Can you imagine when this race is won Turn our golden faces into the sun Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune The music's played by the, the mad men Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever? Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? Forever young Some are like water, some are like the heat Some are a melody and some are the beat Sooner or later, they all will be gone Why don't they stay young? It's so hard to get old without a cause I don't want to perish like a fading horse Youth's like diamonds in the sun And diamonds are forever So many adventures couldn't happen today So many songs we forgot to play So many dreams swinging out of the blue We let them come true Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever? Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever? Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? |

It's a trick of my mind
Two faces bathing in the screenlight She's so soft and warm in my arms I tune it into the scene My hands are resting on her shoulders When we're dancing away for a while Oh we're moving, we're falling We step into the fire By the hour of the wolf in a midnight dream There's no reason to hurry Just start that brand new story Set it alight, we're head over heels in love Head over heels The ringing of your laughter It sounds like a melody To once forbidden places We'll go for a while The ringing of your laughter It sounds like a melody To once forbidden places We'll go for a while It's the definite show Our shadows resting in the moonlight It's so clear and bright in your eyes It's the touch of your sighs My lips are resting on your shoulder When we're moving so soft and slow We need the ecstasy, the jealousy The comedy of love Like the Cary Grants and Kellys once before Give me more tragedy, more harmony And fantasy, my dear And set it alight, just starting that satellite Set it alight The ringing of your laughter It sounds like a melody To once forbidden places We'll go for a while The ringing of your laughter It sounds like a melody To once forbidden places We'll go for a, go for a while |

by Alphaville let's dance in style, lets dance for a while heaven can wait we're only watching the skies hoping for the best but expecting the worst are you going to drop the bomb or not? let us die young or let us live forever we don't have the power but we never say never sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip the music's for the sad men can you imagine when this race is won turn our golden faces into the sun praising our leaders we're getting in tune the music's played by the madmen forever young, i want to be forever young do you really want to live forever, forever and ever some are like water, some are like the heat some are a melody and some are the beat sooner or later they all will be gone why don't they stay young it's so hard to get old without a cause i don't want to perish like a fading horse youth is like diamonds in the sun and dimonds are forever so many adventures couldn't happen today so many songs we forgot to play so many dreams are swinging out of the blue we let them come true |

When the heat of light melts into the speeding time
When the king returns from the ivory city side Let the Magnet-Mages wave the signals, flashing, oh, so fast There you'll meet me dear under the moonshine In a lover's Heaven, we'll keep our promises at last In a lover's Heaven, we'll forget the past Do you want to dance with me Through one of those lonely nights It's more than a dream, maybe We're reaching the gardens of delight Do you want to dance with me Through one of those lonely nights It's more than a dream, maybe We're drowning in Empires of Delight In the stardust dawn underneath the crystal roofs Where the Solar Boys are playing games they never lose Where the sailors are swaying through the Lightdomes Shining from the skies There you'll meet me, darling, anyway In a lover's Heaven, we'll keep our promises at last In a lover's Heaven, we'll forget the past Do you want to dance with me Through one of those lonely nights It's more than a dream, maybe We're reaching the gardens of delight Do you want to dance with me Through one of those lonely nights It's more than a dream, maybe We're drowning in Empires of Delight |

World without a breeze
Heartbeat of the heat above the harbour Lazy day lies dazed upon the shelf Atomic lizards lick at the blaze of a light that is forever No move in the solid skies No gleaming metal out of the breathtaking blue My golden circus girls all sailed away The lion tamers are no longer due to play Whoever breaks the Seven Seals And lets the angry angels free I do not know Just waiting here For summer rain For summer rain Or anything else Prophet hold your head up Into a cluster of bees and listen "Love of my life Here is all our honey Yes, we can change the world, together" And if we're still invited to walk in this party I'd go for a saucerful of secrets or more But the last thing I heard of was that GOD had left the lines For a brand new universe HE was supposed to say My golden circus girls all sailed away The lion tamers are no longer due to play Whoever breaks the Seven Seals and lets the angry angels free I do not know Just waiting over there For summer rain For summer rain What a glorious feeling I'm happy again Just cool rain |

Sounds Like A Melody
by Alphaville it's a trick of my mind to faces bathing in the screenlight she's so soft and warm in my arms i tune it into the scene my hand are resting on her shoulders when we're dancing away for a while oh, we're moving, we're falling, we step into the fire by the hour of the wolf in a midnight dream there's no reason to hurry, just start that brand new story set it alight, we're head over heels in love head over heels the ringing of your laughter it sounds like a melody to once forbidden places we'll go for a while it's the definite show our shadows resting in the moonlight it's so clear and bright in your eyes it's the touch of your sighs my lips are resting on your shoulder when we're moving so soft and slow we need the extasy, the jelousy, the comedy of love like the cary grants and kellys once before give me more tragedy, more harmony and phantasy, my ***D E A R*** and set it alight, just starting that satellite set it alight |

She sits by the window, stares into the night
Just waiting for a foreign sound from the outside Far beyond the atmospheres, she is listening for a call To take her homewards to herself Oh, I love you so He who's master of the eyes of chance won't harm you in the morning She knows that the pavement's hard There between the stars To travel on to Martian-Homesick-City She is weeping silently, but there?s not a tear Just raindrops falling from the painted ceiling The dance of the foraging bee will number all the things She has been longing for since she was young "I will not pass this night in vain", she says "I'll stand this kind of rain I'll break the glass, I'll find the path" Yes, Carol wants to go to Mars Back where the red, cold sun Is sinking to the Channels of A'DAAR Day breaks through the grating Someone moves a chair And sunlight blisters dazzling on a glass Take a pill and greet the day For sedative holidays Why aren't you sleeping at night? Oh, I love you so He who's master of the eyes of chance won't harm you 'til the evening We shall meet tomorrow night And I'll kiss you just as tenderly As CYGNUS kissed the deserts We shall meet tomorrow night And I'll kiss you just as tenderly As CYGNUS kissed the deserts |

People drifting cross the surface of the twilight day There's a Little Yellow Man, standing by the railway station Painting portraits on the brick - walls of Billie Holloway Lovely Lady S. M. I. L. E. Dance, my dear, I'm only operating on "Lassie Come Home" "This was authentic you" she spoke, "this was authentic you who blew me cold" He had no chance to realize, It hit her straight between the eyes So I've been told In the park, she's giving out some photographs On which she's giving out some photos of what she hands around "They videod a ghost tonight", she said before I turned it out "It rode an orange paper - bike, and left without a sound. " Keep on riding, Sir Open up the door and shout it out: "Lassie Come Home, Come Home!!" "This was authentic you?" she spoke, "this was authentic you who blew, who blew Me cold" I had no chance to realize, It hit her straight between the eyes So I've been told Lonely Girl dancing in the music - hall Lightning struck her silver starship and turned it into stone And now it's falling all the time into that void beyond her gray eyes Somewhere a telephone is ringing, but nobody's at home "Hello Junkie - Sweetheart, listen now This is your Captain calling: Your Captain is dead. " Keep on riding, Sir, open up the door And shout it out - shout it out... Lassie come home - Lassie come home Lassie come home - Lassie come Home... |

She's like a frostfern in my head
The lamplight burns my eyes and then she fades away My pencil's frozen in my hand And the letter I can't write, it seems to be a desert without end I woke up late at night She called me up, then disappeared And the echo of her voice Filled the empty places in my dreams With the silent tide CHORUS She fades away Again Oo, she fades away She fades away again Don't go now Please stay My senses cruising through a void As pale reflections play on the deserted road I hear the humming of machines A distant sound like thunder Crawling through the cold There's no escape, I know I run around in circles without end And the more the memory grows Dissolving from reality With the silent tide CHORUS Don't make me cry This time I've got to learn I know She won't return This time I've got to learn I know She won't return This time I've got to learn I know she won't return This time I've got to learn I know she won't return This time I've got to learn I know she won't return This time I've got to learn I know she won't return Don't make me cry Don't make me cry Don't make me cry Don't make me cry This time I've got to learn I know she won't return This time I've got to learn I know she won't return Don't make me, don't make me cry gold/1985 |
