waiting
for a change in the weather i'm waiting for a shift in the air could we get it together, ever hoping for your return, hoping for your sweet, sweet return hello is this heaven calling hello, hello, is somebody there, she must be somewhere and then she says hello, hello, hello she's really an angel she stands in the sunshine she's closing her eyes, she starting to dream, she's pulling the strings she's dreaming a strange dream where nothing is grey then she takes me away and she's pulling the strings when she's playing with love she's playing with love... counting i count every second and i'm standing i stand in the rain, i walk up that lane which leads to the sunshine she stands in the sunshine she's closing her eyes then she takes me away and she's pulling the strings when she's playing with love she's playing with love... |

show me a place that ain't hell, if there's space, give me room to breathe
that's all that i need for this body can't fail and if music be the food of love, play on, give me excess of it let it all out, please let me out of here and i shall rise from the ashes grow like a rose from the ruins there must be light in the darkness hope at the end of the night yes, i've been tryin' all my life to get to heaven but awoke in the eye of the storm but i shall rise from the ashes, grow from the ruins and return back home this is a call from the gaols coming up to the prisoners of pleasure drunk on the blood of the next generations and i've been through many strange confusions, splitting myself into to many faces now the mirror is broken, i can see the worms behind you may well have your ways of triumph, you may well have your ways of truth just gimme some room to breathe, that's all that i need me and my strange friends we all belong to the grand astral body (take my hand and i take you out of here) and there's you behind those legendary curtains take my hand before you wither in the crowd and i take you out of here this is the end of the show, i don't know was i wrong was i right oh love, i don't know, i wasn't perfect for sure but now i feel like a new born baby, lying in the dew of the morning laughing at the sky like a brave new apollo |

pretty baby, don't you know, times they are a changin'
every little moment we grow up we lose control life's a loaded gun with no directions and it keeps you on the run, it has no mercy mum and daddy went to war, never coming back no more did you ever think they'd make you whole again maybe someone dropped a bomb just right into the middle of your soul-they're in control you got to get out of control again - no more control again you're getting whole again - ain't no control again you got to get out of control 20th century honey bee, what you're doing is what you'll be life's no dress rehearsal when you bring the honey in everything seems wrong to thee nurtured from the poison of reality that has no mercy all your friends went for the thrill, now it's yours to grab the kill did you ever think you're getting whole again maybe someone send a priest with some religion cooking in a bowl they're in control you got to get out of control again... what's the fucking thing about control, did you think you'd ever getting whole just as long as there is no control, they have no control of you at all |

i sleep between the gates of night, in a no man's land
always closer than you think, a kind of your best friend i have no religion and i have no flag i don't care if you're wrong or right lilac skinned or black i'm a cosmopolitician closer than your next of kin angel, devil of the night and the seed of everything and if your world has turned to ashes i will leave you never even when the sun's blown out, i will shine forever i caress you with my charms i'm your best friend, the dream i'm the light that guides you through the nights and deepest haze i'm a cosmopolitician... you need a friend without a doubt i wonder why you came around are you awake or do you dream you're stuck inside a frozen scene you try to move but there's no moves you try to speak but there's no use you try to wake but you can't you close your eyes without a chance you need a friend without a doubt i wonder why you came around.. |

Let's start 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 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 |

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. . . |

so you hugged the globe
now it's whirling too fast i really got no hope to hang on to the past the train has departed, the toxins have started to announce that none will last i cower in the gutter of a world that's not so near and i listen to their mutters that are spinning through the air the words unspoken, the promises broken and the ones who really care i'm the watcher of the scene i see our shadows on the screen and when the subway brakes to preserve some suicidal bee i stop to breathe for a while maybe it was me this is the world gliding by like the driftwood beams on a lifetime's stream the instant fundamental sky for pandora's lullaby i see distorted faces coined like gold and in their wrinkles programs that commercial gurus told a watermark against a spark umbrellas that they hold i'm gliding in the distance and watch the world go by an orbit full of questions, a perforated sky but i just sit and wonder a bit that they never wonder why |

the gentle taste of orange
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. . . |

sounds like a melody
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 |
