#01 Never
You
Make it all worthwhile
And you
Are love

You
and me, never left behind
and you
are all

so come to me, whispering
silent in my ear
come to me, open eyes
never disappear

we’re
flying, but on the ground
we’re
everywhere

we’re
going faster than light
and I’ll
kiss you here


for now
everything will go on
and on
and on

you
make it all worthwhile
you are love

#02 Marvellous Day
Oh, baby
you should call me
I’d just love to hear
your voice whisper in my ear
so that I could say
what a marvellous day
would you come to stay
just come right away
for a while so I can kiss you
got a pile of stacked up
love to give you
Want to spend my savings
to travel with you
I gotta know it, if I asked
would you?
if you say yes, where should we go
Paris? Florence?
you see, I don’t know
I don’t care, it doesn’t matter
rainy day or sunny weather
Da-daa-da-daa-da-daaa
da-da-da-da-da-daa-da-daaa
da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-daaa
da-da-da-da-da-da-daaa-da-daaa-da-daaa
da-daaa-daaaa
Please say yes
it would mean so much to me
you’re so pretty
I want the world to see
that I love you
and promise to do so
for the rest of my life
and even a bit
more
Well, baby
please just call me
so I can hear your voice whisper
gently in my ear
so that I could say
let’s get married right away
on this marvellous day
come stay
come
stay...

Back to top #03 Julian Julian
I’ve got something to admit
I’ve got no work
I’ve got no money
There’s nothing put together for

slowly as the dripping rain
as swift and loud as a gun
disturbing as the backyard brawl
I lean back
look up
and fall

Julian
the wind just killed the light
at nightfall
there will be to
dark to go from here

april and her auburn hair
june and lover’s lost
maya takes another call
i lean back
look up
and fall

Back to top #04 Love Letter
I love you
during the sunny days
of June
I love you
when winter's cold and harsh
once more
I love you
when autumn rain
sets in

I love you
when spring
is green

think of me
whenever I'm far away
from home
think of me
when I'm gone and you're
all on your own
think of me
when you're out drinking
with a friend

think of me
until
the end

take my hand
and let's go down to
Crystal Lake
take my hand
or else my heart will
surely break
take my hand
I'll tell you
secrets on the way

take my hand
do you love
me
too?

Back to top #05 Of all that's gone

Someone please dial
that magical number
that can get me out of here
and to the brave new world
that’s never been seen
someone please hook me up
and get me out of here
before I
pick up a gun
and travel all by myself
someone, come on, someone
must know the area-code
to that promised land of beauty
and happiness and wisdom
that’s impossible to sight here
hey you over there with the cellphone
do you know what I’m talking about
or is it just bad luck that made you
look like a fucking bore?
aren’t anyone listening
why do I always have to figure out
the reasons, and think of the meaning
on other peoples behalf 

Back to top #06 Papertowel Moon
the papertowel moon and I
have got a lot of things to say
dreamweaver wants to fly
colour blue, passing by
this here’s my third eye
but I’ve got no time to stay
moving on, but a short delay
I’ll answer in a while, but

hey, hey
I’ve got nothing
everything is all
but when I turn it’s gone
and hey, hey

every room is white today
although my hands ain’t clean
the great suburban skies
circled dots and flashing green
shadows walking in line
a phonecall put on hold
fold your hands and go away
everything will do, but

hey, hey
I’ve got nothing
everything is all
but when I turn it’s gone
and hey, hey

and dont you cry in public boy
close your eyes and smile
much of what has come to be
remains a mystery
traffic jam on the middle road
turn your head and see
sirens and flashing bright
they’ll probably find a way,

hey
I’ve got nothing
everything is all
but when I turn it’s gone
and hey, hey


Back to top #07 Behind
I'll take it all
and you'll stay behind
but you'll always
be ahead of me

I want to go first
look back and laugh
but you will always
be ahead of me

I want to be the one
to win the prize
but you'll always
be ahead of me

you've always been
always been
will always be


la-la-la-la-
la-la-la-la-
la-la etc...

if i sit down and rest
I'll be sure
that you've been resting
here before

and if I light a smoke
the flame I us
will have been used by
You some time ago

I want to be the one
that's special and unique
but I never will

never will
never will
it just can't be

la-la-la-la-
la-la-la-la-
la-la etc...

Back to top #08 Everybody sing
I should write a song
so beautiful
that everything
and everyone
would like to sing
that song of mine
it would make you smile
you would wait a while

I’d sing of flowers
in the spring
a rainy day
and a wedding ring
the poplar trees
and the shade below
the day I fell
and an all-time low

dadadadada
dadadadada
dadadadada etc...

slowly
everything’ll fade
and soon all
the words I’ve said
will trigger something
in your mind
and maybe
in a while you’ll find

2X:
everything is green
but in a while the leaves
will turn to yellow
think of all that’s been
this song of mine is just
perfectly mellow

Back to top #09 Lullaby
sleep my darling
dream forever
close your eyes
let darkness rise

fold your hair out
on the pillow
night will guide you
all the way

so rest
and sleep
the light
goes deep
dream forever
sleep

night is cold
and snow is white
storm is coming
hold on tight

some might die
but most will live
while you're asleep
and breathing still

so rest
and sleep
the light
goes deep
most will live
sleep


#10 Wedding song

No lyrics

 

Back to top #11 Moon is up moon is up
over quiet nights
over turned-out lights
over violent fights
over passed out drunks
over king-sized junk
over You and Me

moon is up
over a burned-out house
and a wrecked car
over Keychain Bar
they've got bullets in a jar
over mainstreet shops
all the busy cops
and the sugarcoated rooftops

moon is up
over a beggars grave
on mainstreet & third
in a corner
where noone goes
where there's no
flowers
not here
 
Back to top #12 October '67
Well I used to be
Julian Beverly’s white knight
that rode trough the storm
with shining armour
but what could’ve been
the most beautiful story
stopped short
as a bullet pierced his mind

and I stood there watching
as his head fell apart
on the rust-coloured floor
with flowers engraved
his eyes
went pale
and the carpet went red
I know I won’t see him again

‘cause that’s how it works
when you die
you’re forgotten
and noone
remembers your name

as I walked through the door
and the sunlight hit my eyes
I lit a smoke & crushed a cockroach
with my shoe
I stepped slowly into misery
and was quite alone there
and I thought that of so many
there was few

‘cause that’s how it works
when you die
you’re forgotten
and noone
remembers your name
Back to top #13 A very long night
Too much whisky
and yesterdays rain
tuesday evening
just got in the way
out of the blue
someone starts shouting
sounds like my cue
i’ll go out there

too much whisky
and yesterdays rain
tuesday evening
just got in the way
out of the blue
someone starts shouting
sounds like my cue
i’ll go out there

light a cigarette
have another
cup of
coffee
and i stay still

watching
the clouds
passing by
watching
my life
running dry
