All my life I have been waiting
for this moment to arrive
I am speeding up the tempo inside
(fly high)
I doubt that the circles that I'm
moving in are something I could
ever get out of alive
(I love to say that)
I can feel that it starts burning
I got my fingers between
like a shock the torture
gets to my face
tip-top you must go out
you must go out
I have decided for your joy
Chorus:
No easy coming, open my eyes
I can see everything is mortal
No easy going, I realise
I can see everything
and that everything is mortal
All my life I have been waiting for this
it keeps me from sleeping (allright)
I doubt that the circles
that I'm moving in
are something I could ever get out of alive
Yeah!
Chorus

A better light is what we need
so we can see the road we're walking
when the storm breaks
on a dark night
And better friends are what we need
someone who we can trust is following
in the good times
in the bad times
Chorus:
Is this the best we can get?
I should have turned to the matter myself
Is this the best we can get
We got no chance
We got no chance
It's all packed, it all seems ready now
everything goes for believers
we have a great plan
now we need the good gear
Chorus

In the open, come with me
In the open, come with me
You are the best I've seen
something about your eyes
(They're so mysterious alive)
You've got the coolest look
that you try to disguise
(You keep away from the light)
You are most glad of all
and you got the brightest mind of all
and you know for sure
saying love is great
but oh how you can hate (I know you)
Chorus:
They say you are the hide queen
cos you are never really to be seen
and I know you once had a dream
to be yourself, but you could never be
Somebody painted & coloured you
and told you all the things to do
This is right, this is wrong
Now I understand
catching the blood that flows
Chorus

Moment in time, just for a while
The face lighted up so I could see the smile
Following her, hidden by dark
The night's not enough to keep us apart
Forbidden love, but I get near
Tense and confused
don't know what I fear
"I love you", she said
follow me through
and I'll find a way to get out of here
Chorus:
She was, she was to me
a butterfly, slipping into blue sky
She was, she was to me
a refugee running away with me
I'm happy now, though she has flown
into the world she calls her own
on a warm wind, carried away
not to be kept
she was not to stay
Chorus

Sometimes when the pressure
gets too hard for me
and the rain pours on my head
My feet won't walk me
and my eyes won't see
and my coat is soaking wet
But when I drive
My car so independently alive
When I drive
Look out here I come
speeding through the night
Chorus:
I could never never feel more free
and there ain't no speed
that can scare me
saturday night I follow the motorway lights
I'll get there in the end
The click clacking of machinery
tends to hold you mezmorised
I do believe that I have
found a way
through the chaos
& the lies
It's when I drive
My car silhouetted by the pale moonlight
When I drive
Look out here I come speeding
through the cold winter night
Chorus

I'm a quiet guy, I live within all reasons
but they say that I...
am not being careful when I'm played with
So to take me for a ride
is not for you, young girl
'cos I see right through when you lie
I got you once I can get you twice
Ha-ha ... So you don't believe that
so you are ready to play?
Then let it start, let it start
I feel like time is fading out
Now you've played your part
It's like a bomb exploding
Guess it's your lover
You come around with him
Your irritating lover
I think you call him Jim or Tim or Phil
Ahh ... This is gonna stop!
Well I guess I can turn away
But I warn you now
You have to be careful when you play
Take a good look up at the blue sky
and breathe
And I will take away
that look in your eyes
I want them to cry, cry, cry
Yes I will take away
that look in your eyes
cos I want this stopped
so please stop
I guess It's your lover
You come around with him
your irritating lover
I think you call him Bob or Steve or Finn
Ahh ... This is gonna stop

Don't tell me
that you've had a bad day
You should have been here by eight
something got in the way
I've heard that before
You felt bad, you couldn't
get a car
And when you did you couldn't
get far with it
a flat tyre, I've heard it before
But I know what the truth is
It's someone else
I don't want you to admit it is
No I don't want you to admit it
Now this day is over soon
I have to see you again tomorrow afternoon
I've heard that before
You don't want me to follow you home
Cos you don't want me to see
that you're not alone
I don't want to know more
Cos I know what the truth is ...

9 o'clock in the evening
the end of a wonderful day
She lay down on the floor
with her feet spread out
We've been up by the stream
We have seen the movin' tide
Cruisin' down the road
Like the whole world was on our side
It's open and wide
This is our time
There's no talk about love yet
Though somehow I know it will come
It's so easy to get in to
but if you wanna keep it
you have to be strong
We will find the right star
To show us our place on earth
Even if it sounds a bit ... eh?
You know that it works
It means that
This is our time
and time is for
spending right
And this is our day
You make it shine so bright
And these are our dreams
You make me believe
And I believe
and I believe
this is our time
This is our time
and time is for
spending right
And this is our day
You make it shine so bright
And these are our dreams
You make me believe
And I believe
That we can start, we can start,
we can start right here, right here

So silently walking in the sand
I try to make a shadow with my hand
I'm lost again in desert land
And slowly the light begins to fade
I wait another endless day
Chorus:
Desert life is give and take (desert night & day)
Th esun's always up there
Desert life is give and take
The sun's always up there
And slowly the seasons start to change
I seek the whole wide angle for rain
But walk back to my cave again
I can not recall where I came from
So I just have to carry on
Chorus

How can you be so certain
Time flies and you're so young
Nice lines and compliments
are printed on your mind
So many different colours
You saw them all so clear
Although they sometimes are hard to find
Morning star awaking
I know you can hear me
Is this how it should be?
I know you're changing slowly
you'll sonn be far away
Fast running hours
they will soon become a day
All right i know you're young
So I don't mean to ruin it
So much wasted I just
wish that you could stay
Morning May the 7th
I wake up by your side
Your eyes are open wide
I can't hear your heartbeat
you're as cold as ice
I just wish that you could stay
here for a while

Yes I admit that I
wish I could fly sometimes
just leave the ground
and watch everything from the sky, sometimes
it's unreal but imagine
the feeling of flying
Yes I admit that I
wish I could cry sometimes
(And sometimes I do)
Just lay my head on your shoulder
and be a child for a while
It's unreal but imagine
the feeling of crying

All my life I have been waiting
for this moment to arrive
I am speeding up the tempo inside
(fly high)
I doubt that the circles that I'm
moving in are something I could
ever get out of alive
(I love to say that)
I can feel that it starts burning
I got my fingers between
like a shock the torture
gets to my face
tip-top you must go out
you must go out
I have decided for your joy
Chorus:
No easy coming, open my eyes
I can see everything is mortal
No easy going, I realise
I can see everything
and that everything is mortal
All my life I have been waiting for this
it keeps me from sleeping (allright)
I doubt that the circles
that I'm moving in
are something I could ever get out of alive
Yeah!
Chorus
