Espen Lind

Leave and let me go
You're not meant for me, I know
Carry on, carry on, and I'll stay strong

Leave and let me go
I will think of you, I know
But carry on, carry on, and I'll stay strong

Someone else will keep you warm from now on
Someone else will keep you safe from the storm
But I'll be with you wherever you go
So you will never be alone
I'm going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go

I will be with you
I'm losing the love I found
Crying without a sound
Where have you gone?
I will be with you
You were my fool for love
Sent me from high above
You were the one
I will be with you
I'm going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go

Leave and let me go
Don't look back just let me know
You'll carry on, carry on, you must stay strong

Nothing ever looks the same in the light
Nothing ever seems to quite turn out right
But when you realize that you have been loved
You will never be alone
I'm going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go

I will be with you
I'm losing the love I found
Crying without a sound
Where have you gone?
I will be with you
You were my fool for love
Sent me from high above
You were the one
I will be with you
I'm going where the wind blows
Going where the lost ones go

Leave and let me go
Baby I can't come along
Carry on, carry on, you must stay strong

후렴
When Susannah cries
She cries a rainstorm
She cries a river
She cries a hole in the ground
She cries for love
She cries a sad song
She cries a shiver
Sometimes she cries for me too

And I say I'll never hurt her
But she knows it isn't true
'Cos although never told her
I think she knows
'bout me and you
Now she cries
with silent tension
This can't be right
And the downtown special
cries along
'Cos I'm leaving tonight

후렴 반복

Now I slip the night around her
And I hope she'll be okay
I just pray
someone will find her
And guide her on her way
'Cos I'm leaving on the 1AM
And by soon I'm out of sight
But she'll always be my baby
Though I'm leaving tonight

Every night I hear her
Talking in her sleep
She says
"You know I'll always be there"
And I feel like such a creep
Please take back
the love she gave to me
And in time her grief may pass
Just tell her that I loved her
Now it's all she has

When Susannah cries

It's a shame about the weather
It's a shame about the crime
It's a shame about Elvis
It's a shame about the times
It's a shame about the stories
You have heard of me are true
It's damn shame but most of all
It's a shame I'm losing you
It's a damn shame about you beautiful
It's such a damn old shame, yeah

Baby it's been lonely here without you
Since our love split up and parted ways
I just watch the time pass by the hour
And the hazy nights turn into days

Guess you think that I'm some kinda moron
Guess you've told your friends that I'm a freak
Guess you've told them all about my secrets
Guess you've made them think that I'm so weak

It's a shame about the weather
It's a shame about the crime
It's a shame about Elvis
It's a shame about the times
It's a shame about the stories
You have heard of me are true
It's damn shame but most of all
It's a shame I'm losing you
It's a damn shame about you beautiful
It's such a damn old shame, yeah

Baby does it ever make you wonder
How we ever came to get this far
Living in a time warp with a nosebleed
Nothing ever seemed to be too hard

Baby are you happy where you are now
Let me know 'cos I have no idea
You should know I love you 'til it kills me
But you're better off without old me

It's a shame about the weather
It's a shame about the crime
It's a shame about Elvis
It's a shame about the times
It's a shame about the stories
You have heard of me are true
It's damn shame but most of all
It's a shame I'm losing you
It's a damn shame about you beautiful

I'ts such a damn old shame
And here we go again
It's such a damn old shame
We got ourselves to blame
Hauling ourselves thought pain
We got it going again
It's such a damn old shame

It's a shame about the weather
It's a shame about the crime
It's a shame about Elvis
It's a shame about the times
It's a shame about the stories
You have heard of me are true
It's damn shame but most of all
It's a shame I'm losing you
It's a damn shame about you beautiful, Yeah
It's such a damn old shame, Uh, Yeah
It's such a damn old shame, Yeah
It's such a damn old shame
It's such a damn old shame

I saw her first
She came around
That day my angel came to town
This is just a love song
Her shine was white she rode the light
She let her wings go where they might
?cos she looked to be a wild one

She just got in my car and said
"boy take me to wherever you want"

All I want is an angel
And I know she will stay on my mind all the way
All I want is an angel
One like you
Like you

We drove all day we didn?t stop
Along the way until the top
Of the cliff by the sea
She played her tapes of afghan wigs
?cos that?s the rock?n?roll she digs
It was all a fantasy

And when the night tumbled down on us
Her name was tattooed over my heart

All I want is an angel
And I know she will stay on my mind all the way
All I want is an angel
One like you
Like you

The moon was high and so was I
?cos I was drowning in her eyes
And while the waves crashed to the shore
I would politely ask for more
I didn?t even know her name
But frankly that was all the same
Because I just could not believe
That this was happening to me
All I want is an angel
I can hold on a leash
Who will do what I please
All I want is an angel
Just for me
For me

All I want is an angel
And I know she will stay on my mind all the way
All I want is an angel
One like you
Like you

there's a place by the river in the back of my mind
daddy you showed me but back then i was blind
just give me directions i promise i'll go
please let me see 'cos i'm too young to know
let me see 'cos i'm too young to know

i found what i searched for a warm august night
in a dream in a desert i was high as a kite
when i finally learned how to manage my states
i poured out my heart on the buffalo tapes
on those beautiful buffalo tapes

oh the tip on my pen has run totally dry
from hundreds of letters for you asking why
they sent invitations then hated my stay
they're shooting my wings while i'm flying away
they're shooting my wings away

so give me one if by land
give me two if by sea
give me three if my cool friends are asking for me
tell them i have gone fishing
and that no one knows where
'cos daddy they hate me when i am not there
oh they hate me when i am not there

now i am so happy that i've broken free
daddy is it all that i hope it will be
will the rain make my river grow into a flow
please let me see 'cos i'm to young to know
let me see 'cos i'm too young to know

Oh my god here I go again I'm
About to get in deep
I'm completley obsessed with you and
that's why I lose me sleep

Can I be your shepherd can I the torch and the light the way
I just wanna hold you smell you and have you every day
Can I have your inner secrts can I write about then in a song
Just don't keep me hanging i've been hanging much too long

Oh baby you're so cool
so beautiful I bet you rule
And you're nobodys fool
Oh baby you're so cool

I love your white lies your spunk your grand prize
the evil in your eyes
Your smell your levis your taste your dress size
Your see-through alibis

I follow you around all day I cling to you like I'm some kind of tail
I sleep outside your doorstep and sometimes I even read your mail
I watch you every weekday and I watch you sundays in the park
Baby are you nuclear cos you're glowing in the dark

Oh baby you're so cool
so beautiful I bet you rule
And you're nobodys fool
Oh baby you're so cool

My perversion my introversion has got me on my knees
Lets get down and explore each other so I can find some peace

One look at you it's clear I've never wanted anyone this bad
I'm pretty damn sure you're better than the ones that I've had
You're such a trip just watching you sends shivers down my spine
I bet you're really bad for me now I just gotta make you mine

Oh baby you're so cool
so beautiful I bet you rule
And you're nobodys fool
Oh baby you're so cool

What if I said you had to leave me
Would you believe that it was you I was thinking of
What if I told you just to fly free
Would you believe it was so you?d be better off

What if I told you I?m ready
What if I told you I?m prepared to make that sacrifice
Would you believe it was the best I could do
Well maybe not, but it?s true
?cos I would even die for you

If I told you that I?ve loved you from that first sight
Would you believe me for I swear I tell no lie
What if I told you that just last night
I made my mind up and I promised not to cry

What if I told you I?m ready
What if I told you I?m prepared to make that sacrifice
Would you believe it was the best I could do
Well maybe not, but it?s true
?cos I would even die for you

So now my love I have to leave you
For once my words have to replace your tender love
That always paints my sky in clear blue
To try and paint this final portrait of my love

?cos baby now I am ready
?cos baby now I am prepared to let you out of my life
And when you said my eyes were beautiful
That?s ?cos they were looking at you
Goodbye my love just do what you do

I?m lying wide awake in bed
My eyes are closed just like I?m dead
My friends all think that I?m a bore
But I don?t need them anymore
I don?t get up I don?t get out
I have no life to speak about
It feels so good to leave the blame with you
So that?s what I do

I?m going down
Come around
Watch me when I hit the ground
Give me just one fix of your
Your sweet american love
I?d go blind
Lose my mind
Leave the world I know behind
Just to feel it one last time
My sweet american love

My telephone is off the hook
My eyes are closed I?m scared to look
I bet you?re happy now you?re free
Byt what about poor little me
I draw your picture on the wall
My phone is dead and still you call
My mama asked I told her I get by
That?s such I lie

I?m going down
Come around
Watch me when I hit the ground
Give me just one fix of your
Your sweet american love
I?d go blind
Lose my mind
Leave the world I know behind
Just to feel it one last time
My sweet american love

I?ve kept the things you gave to me
The air is clear but I can?t see
And a cheerful radio boasts that "love is in the air"
But it?s so full of shit
A sony, is it?
So what d? you have to leave me for
Was it my hair was I such a bore
Well you know baby
You were always my only choice

Babe it?s me calling
Are you alive and well
How is your mama has the weather been ok
Do you forget me
Do you exclude my name
When you narrate your life to all your newfound friends
But I am creeping up on you
Keeping an eye on what you do
Baby there is gonna be
No more playing games with me

You should not be
Messing with me
Try me and you will see
Baby don?t be
Messing with me
I can?t wait to make you see

Give me your money
Give me your peace of mind
Just give me something in return for what you stole
I?m cut but no bleeding
Scarred but not torn apart
I just need something kinda strong to fill the hole

Well you can change your haircut change your name
I am gonna find you all the same
Baby there is gonna be
No more getting smart with me

You should not be
Messing with me
Try me and you will see
I wanna know
Where do you go
And where is that leaving me

Never thought I?d get to see
The jealousy livin?inside of me

You should not be
Messing with me
Try me and you will see
Baby don?t be
Messing with me
I can?t wait to make you see

You should not be
Messing with me
Tru me and you will see
I wanna know
Where do you go
And where the hell is that leaving me

I used to love the girl but
now I just don't know
don't get me wrong now she could not
have loved me more

It's just that the time has come for me to be gone
I guess I should be moving along
but when the city calls out her name
I'll be missing her
oh I'll be missing her then

Missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much so much then
missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much then

When I am half asleep sometimes I hear her voice
wish I could tell her it's all right wish I had a choice

But hey
I guess it was not meant to be
I guess she was not meant for me
and when the city calls out her name
I'll be missing her
oh I'll be missing her then

Missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much so much then
missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much then

I just got to break her heart this one last time
but then she'll find her peace of mind
and when the city calls out her name
I'll be missing her
oh I'll be missing her then

Missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much so much then
missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much then

Missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much so much then
missing her then
missing her then
missing her so much then

Once in a while
When I'm sleeping
My horses are wild
And I'm weeping
Just like a child
I wake up dreaming that I've been loved

Nights are in blue
And Castillian
Thinking of you
Senses reeling
Diving into
This feeling that I have been loved

Lucky for you
You know what to do
When somebody hurts you
Somebody enters your life, disappears
Leaves you in tears
Stirs up your fears, oh yeah
If you have a clue
About what to do
Then it's lucky for you, yeah, yeah

Still lucky for me
You're amazing
You made me see
Sparks come blazing
I was lucky to be
Made to feel like I had been loved

Lucky for you
You know what to do
When somebody hurts you
Somebody enters your life, disappears
Leaves you in tears
Stirs up your fears, yeah, yeah, yeah
If you have a clue
About what to do
Then it's lucky for you

I didn't think you would sacrifice
U-u, the love I made you receive, no, no
I'd pay a grand for some paradise
but I'm just too scared to believe, o-o-oh!

Instrumental

Lucky for you
If you know what to do
When somebody hurts you
Somebody enters your life, disappears
Leaves you in tears
Stirs up your fears, yeah, yeah, yeah
If you have a clue
About what to do
When somebody hurts you
Somebody enters your life, disappears
Leaves you in tears
Stirs up your fears, yeah, yeah

If you have a clue
About what to do
Lucky for you

when susnanah cries
she cries a rainstorm
she cries a river
she cries a hole in the ground
she cries for love
she cries a sad song
she cries a shiver
sometimes she creis for me too
and I say I'll never hurt her
but she knows it isn't true
'cos although I never told her
I think she knows 'bout me and you
now she cries with silent tension
this can't be right
and the downtown
special cries along
'cos I'm leaving tonight
when susnanah cries
she cries a rainstorm
she cries a river
she cries a hole in the ground
she cries for love
she cries a sad song
she cries a shiver
sometimes she creis for me too
now I slip the night around her
and I hope she'll be okay
I just pray
someone will find her
and guide her on her way
'cos I'm leaving on the 1am
and by soon I'm out of sight
but she'll always be my baby
though I'm leaving tonight

every night I hear her
talking in her sleep
she says
you know I'll always be there
and I feel like such a creep
please take
back the love she gave to me
and in time her grief may pass
just tell her that I loved her
now it's all she has

Just roll the soundtrack
Let the lights dim down to blue
They've dressed their voodoo dolls
And named them after you

Burn your every bridge
Sever all your ties
Give confessions where
You serve them all your lies
Does it get you high
Does it make you whole
Does it get you by
As you play your role

You make me so hard
Because you're a star
You dress like the devil
Then you sing like a god
They love when you smile
You rock'n'roll child
Baby this is pop from hell

Just wear your knee pads
And your finest little dress
When uncle Devil comes
Disguised as great success

Jesus was a saint
You the biggest fan
Bet his money on
The horse that bit his hand
Don your finest shirt
Rip yourself apart
Wallow in the dirt
Baby that's your art

You make me so hard
Because you'rea star
You dress like a devil
And they label it art
They got you on tape
So you can't escape
Baby this is pop from hell

You're in too deep
Your life will make you weep
When you see the battle isn't won
It's only just begun

You make me so hard
Because you're a star
And I just don't believe
You don't like what you've got
They know how to throw
One hell of a show
Baby this is pop from hell

I never thought
that I would be the one to say
these words
I never thought
that I would be the one to care
I never thought that
I would be the one to say
this hurts
I never thought that
I would see myself right there
But now it's falling apart
I'm speaking right from the heart
Which I should have from the start
An unbelievable mess
I wouldn't be here unless
I believed there are
things to confess
I have been felling so hollow
Can you fill the hole
I have inside
And if you want I will follow
I'll keep going til
I'm running blind
I'm sleeping with
the lights on low
And Joni Mitchel
l on the radio
Somebody else
I'm sure could find a way
to work this out
Somebody else I'm sure could
find a way to see
Somebody else I'm sure could
find a way to let it out
Somebody else who wasn't
as messed up as me
I hear your voice in my head
There's nothing left to be said
Now all the angels are dead
An unbelievable mess
I wouldn't be here unless
I believe there are
things to confess
I have been felling so hollow
Can you fill the hole
I have inside
And if you want I will follow
I'll keep going til
I'm running blind
I'm sleeping with the
lights on low

And Joni Mitchell on the radio

I was you and you were me
And you broke my heart so easily
Then you left a message on my radio

I sleep all day stay up all night
Hanging out 'til dawn to feel alright
Now that I am lost there's nothing left to lose

So I'm dancing in a coma
While I'm downing holy cola
I'm not happy acting this way

Take me back Sunday take me back black Sunday
Maybe things are different when I wake up Monday
How was I supposed to know
That I would have to let you go
Why wasn't I told
It's like everything is slipping away on a black Sunday.

I was you and you were me
And I thought you came to rescue me
But you left a message on my radio

I'm drunk by 7.20
And I sleep around a-plenty
I'm not happy acting this way

Take me back Sunday take me back black Sunday
Maybe things are different when I wake up Monday
How was I supposed to know
That I would have to let you go
Why wasn't I told
It's like everything is slipping away on a black Sunday.

It's darker than me
It's dark as can be
It's everything that I feel
It's hard to let go
Now I need to know
Where do I go from here?

Take me back Sunday take me back black Sunday
Maybe things are different when I wake up Monday
How was I supposed to know
That I would have to let you go
Why wasn't I told
It's like everything is slipping away on a black Sunday

I have lied and I have listened
I've been tried and I've been christened
I don't wanna stay here anymore
I have taken all for granted
I have raved and I have ranted
Never asking why or what it's for

I've said too much
I've seen too much
I've lied too much
Been getting high too much
But I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tomorrow
So cross my heart
And hope to die
If I don't fall apart tonight
I'll be coming home
I'm coming home
Tomorrow

The road back home is long and windling
The heat is strong the light is blinding
Faces that I know from long ago
Buried in the surface clutter
I can hear them voices mutter
"Welcome home we knew you would return"

I've said too much
I've seen too much
I've done too much
Been on the run too much
But I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tomorrow
So cross my heart
And hope to die
If I don't fall apart tonight
I'll be coming home
I'm coming home
Tomorrow

I have lied and I have listened
Kiss me now cos I've been christened
I have taken all for granted
I have raved and I have ranted
I don't want to fuss and fight
I just want a quiet life
There's nothing left to say
Nothing left to do
There's nowhere left to go

Right back home the trail is leading
My dick is limp my nose is bleeding
Back into the place where I was born

I've said too much
I've seen too much
I've lied too much
Been getting high too much
But I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tomorrow
So cross my heart
And hope to die
If someone saves my life tonight
I'll be coming home
I'm coming home
Tomorrow

I have lied and I have listened
Kiss me now cos I've been christened
I don't wanna stay here anymore

Oh dear God is this a test
Or is this for real
People tell me I have been blessed
Is this how it feels

I found what I have looked for at last
Lost it all because of my past
I wonder who is there to be seen
When the light goes out for me

And everything's falling
Everything's falling apart

By the time this hits the fan
Then I will be be gone
I'm giving up on all that I am
To search for the dawn

I'll be doing all I can to stay warm
Tryin' to walk with grace through the storm
It's hard to take it all like a man
When I don't know who I am

And everything's falling
Everything's falling apart

Now the only thing that I really want
Is the only thing that cannot be bought
Can we make another try
I know that it doesn't matter really but
Tell me
Why

Everything's falling
Everything's falling apart

Everybody says
You never loved me
And everybody says
It's for the best
Everybody says
You're no good for me
Everybody says
To let it rest

Everybody says I should be happy
And everybody says I should be glad
That tick tock tick tock the rain is gonna dry up
And I won't feel quite so bad

Everybody says
The game is over
Everybody says
The prize is lost
Everybody says
It's all for nothing
Everybody says
That that's the cost
Everybody says I should be happy
And everybody says I should be glad
That tick tock tick tock the rain is gonna dry up
And I won't feel quite so bad
Everybody says
I will forget you
Everybody says
I will survive

Everybody says I should be happy
And everybody says I should be glad
That tick tock tick tock the rain is gonna dry up
And I won't feel quite so bad
But today I'm so, so sad

She takes me to silent places
She takes me to cold and quiet streets
She takes me where lovers meet

She takes me to the Dolphin Club
She takes me to the Dolphin Club
She takes me to the Dolphin Club

Forever I've tried to find it
Nobody could tell me left or right
I just assumed I was blinded
But now I have seen the light

She takes me to the Dolphin Club
She takes me to the Dolphin Club
She takes me to the Dolphin Club

She takes me to silent places
She takes me somewhere around the bend
She greets me with warm embraces
She stays with me 'til the end

Are you sad
Are you mad
That you gave me everything that you had
Every deed every seed every need

Like some black
Twist of fate
I've come back but it's too late
All I've said all I've seen all I've been

Been looking out for a saviour
Been around the world but baby

I want you
I want you

Are you sad
Are you mad
Is it better now you see what you had
What you need what you want what you are

Was I good
Was I bad
Was I better than the best you've had
I abide you can't hide look inside

It's getting dark fast and I'm freezing
Fooling you was oh so easy

I want you
I want you

Now I smell the flowers while I can
I try to be a better man
All this time to realize
That I don't need no alibies

I want you
Now I can say it
I want you
