Down
02:24
|
|||
I don't know
what kind of curse is
driving me again
so low
i need a nurse to
take care of me
Every day i feel so
down down down down
down down down down
Seems so hard
to make it through the night
without a
girl by my side
but when the morning comes
i try to hide
All the sorrow
all the loneliness
and pain i feel
Inside my mind
everything is lost
but i won't die
It's alright
i 'm not the only one who's
out of sight
No one cares that i feel
down down down down
down down down down
Man i got tired
it's been so long
that smiling has retired
from my face
i 'm standing here just
counting out the days
I keep falling going
down down down down
down down down down

The Guitar Or The Girl
02:36
|
|||
Well if you asked me
and i really had to choose
which one i 'd keep and which
i wouldn't mind to lose
Two little words that
both begin with "g"
but at the end of the day they
won't both stay with me
If i lose my guitar and i 'll
never touch her strings again
i 'll miss the songs that we sing
and will only remain the pain
But i love my girl and i want
to hold her through the night
and if she's going away
i 'm left in the dark without a light
The guitar or the girl
you got to choose
the one to keep
the other to lose
In this life you
can't have it all
at first you raise
and then you fall
I don't know why i put myself
in such a place
i turn to the pillow beside me
and can't see no face
Just two pieces of wood with some
metal parts and a hole
if she could only grow legs
she would also run away from home

Nothing's Left
03:58
|
|||
Nothing's left
inside you hand
it was too good
for you to stand
Now the bird
has flown away
and you've got
no one else to play
People say you should
act your age
but when you do
seems all so strange
Got to take a trip
around the world
and put your worries
on a hold
No one cares if
you 're alive
no matter how deep
the sea, you got to dive
Nothing's right
or been in place
look at the nose
upon your face
Still you're hoping
for a change
trying to unlock
your cage
Stop worrying about things
you can't control
you even can't
control a ball
You've got to step
outside your room
and you got to do it
pretty soon
No one cares if
you are dead
the biggest hole in the world
is in your head
Rainy nights and
sunny days
they 're all gone and
no one waits
Nothing's left to
show the way
and you are feeling
old and gray

Girl with the blue eyes
and the long blonde hair
don't know for how long
i sit and stare
I reach out my hand to touch you
and you 're not there
"She is not real" they tell me
but i don't care
Girl with the loveliest smile
in the whole wide world
you were always so young
and i always felt so old
Got to get you out of
my dreams and face the truth
but every now and then my heart
leads me back to...
You 're the only one i wish i had
but you don't exist and i feel sad
Girl with the colorful clothes
and the brightest face
i really want you
but ain't got what it takes
I close my eyes for a while
and you 're in my sight
i open them up and i've
lost you without a ...
Fight, every night for some light
that could break into my life
and i 'm trying hard to smile
though i know that i should cry
for the girl with the blue eyes...
You 're the only one i wish i had
but you don't exist and i feel sad
Girl with the blue eyes
and the long blonde hair...

Rain
02:41
|
|||
Rain is falling down
from the clouds over your head
i can see you trying to count
how many drops it takes to make you dead
Feels like you won't ever see the sun again
and all this darkness will remain
somehow you'll find the strength to fight the pain
it's only hard 'till you forget your name
Now, as the the winter's coming
the good times left behind
the future's not so charming
and all you want to do is run and hide
What do you do when everything goes wrong?
Where do you go when you're alone?
How does it feel when no one likes your song
and all the good things that you had are gone?
Where do you sleep when you got no home?
How do you smile when there's no love?
What makes the colors to shine bright
and helps you out to see things right...
The fog that now surrounds you
will never leave unless you blow
the ghost that always hunts you
will disappear my friend if you just let it go...

The Right Thing
03:11
|
|||
It's always hard enough
to do the thinking,
you got to use your brain
just for a while
You're going up and down
seems like you're sinking
but man it feels so great
when you arrive
Sometimes it's painful trying
to be a good boy,
you may have to forget
about yourself
You often have to
give away your best toy
and maybe you 'll be found
hanging on a shelf
But baby, please don't you
hear a word i say
i 'm just so alone that
i could die
Lately, i saw my hair are
turning to grey
Well, i used to think i 'm young enough
but now i know i 'm playing the second half
Most of the times it's tough
to do the right thing,
your heart will disagree
with your own mind
Countless days you 'll wait
to hear your phone ring,
at least you 'll have the space
true love to find

Breathe
03:56
|
|||
As the sun is diving
into the sea
i remember how we
used to be
i didn't care for you
you didn't care about me
took us a little time
the truth to see
As the wind that blew
is calming down
trying to pick my heart up
from the ground
it really makes no difference
you 're not around
i can feel lonely by myself
you don't have to help me out
I have ripped you off my life
there is nothing i can keep
i 'm so tired of wondering why, now
all i have to do is breathe
As the leaves are falling
from the tree
i can see depression
falling down on me
Sometimes you can't split
happiness in three
It's not a state i 'd
really love to be in
As the moon is rising
in the sky
I'm not really happy
but at least i try
like the birds i wish that
i could fly
if i had the wings i 'd
fly so high
I have ripped you off my life
there is nothing i will keep
i 'm so tired of wondering why, now
all i have to do is breathe

Turn Off The Lights
02:50
|
|||
Turn off the lights
i don't want to see no more
Go on with your life
don't turn around to see what's wrong
I don't want to get up from my bed
my face is pale and my eyes are red
I don't need nobody to help
Can't see me flying out of this hell
When i think about the past
and all the things that didn't last
you know it always breaks my heart
Close the door
i don't want to go out no more
Please don't stop
keep on walking down your road
I don't care if the sun will shine
or if it is still dark outside
There's no need to wonder why
all i have to do is cry
They say i got to carry on
but it seems to me so wrong
'cause in the end it brakes my heart
Turn off the lights
i don't want to see no more
Close the door
i don't want to go out no more

The Beach
03:38
|
|||
Spent last night
at the beach with you
The wind so cold
was blowing your hair
Woke up this morning
i was feeling quite sick
"I'm feeling great" you said
this is not fair
I am so weak
can't get out of my bed
My head is gonna break
my brain is dead
My nose is running
and you ran to someone else
when i see that beach you know
it breaks my heart
I went last night
to dinner with you
you were feeling full
i ate it all
I rolled on my bed
and i couldn't sleep a wink
you slept like a bird beside
some other guy
Here in my bathroom
i 'm feeling quite unwell
what i've been missing
most is your smell
Nobody's here
to help me through this hell
girl you know, my stomach aches
less than my heart
For each time you laugh
there are two, times that you
have to cry
Maybe it's tough
but it's true
since we said goodbye
For each day you live
there are three, days that you
have to die
You don't have to climb
up on a tree
if you want to get high

Pretty Girl
02:51
|

Pretty girl
with the beautiful blue eyes
Like two stars
they are shining when she smiles
I'm so glad
but she makes me wanna cry
if you see her
you won't have to ask me why
And i feel
there is magic all around
and i think
i was lost and i've been found
In my arms
as i hold her through the night
there is darkness
but i 'm with her and i 'm alright
Need no other
but my girl to hold my hand
only she can
cheer me up when i feel sad
And i know
there is magic everywhere
but i feel i can't breathe
when she's not there
I can't stand
so much happiness at once
My whole world
it has changed at a glance
And i feel
there is music all around
and i think
i was lost and i've been found

Got To
02:27
|
|||
You got to move while
you 're standing still
You got to praise the Lord
while you kill
You got to take
you got to give
"I want you here but
you better leave"
Work every day
sleep every night
"Hear what i say
to get it right"
Give me a smile
but look around
all of your dreams
lie to the ground
Still don't get it
still don't know
what i've been doing wrong
Something's missing
and i 'm still here just
going through it all
You got to eat
got to be fit
you got to greet
everyone you meet
You got to pay if
you wanna stay
i need you here
but you're away
Love summertime but i
hate the heat
i cooked a cake but it
was too sweet
When i 'm alone
i 'm feeling pain
She's on the phone
"not her again"
Still don't get it
still don't know
what i've been doing wrong
Something's missing
and i 'm still here just
going through it all

Waiting For Nothing
03:29
|
|||
I am walking down the street
thanking the Lord i still got my feet
there's so much pain and crying
all around me
As i 'm still walking down the road
all that i do is to sing my song
man i 'm so glad that sadness hasn't
found me
I' m waiting for nothing
this is really something
i' m telling you one thing
i' m waiting for nothing
Some crazy people are passing me by
they 're always running but i don't know why
whatever they 're chasing
they don't seem to catch it
The sun is setting behind a cloud
a strange red light is filling the town
thank God that i have still the eyes
to see it
I' m waiting for nothing
this is really something
i' m telling you one thing
i' m waiting for nothing
Got to get to the point
where the only feel is joy
and we won't keep trying to
break each others' hearts
Got to get to a place
where we all can find the space
and the time we need to
fix our broken parts
My girl has run away from me
i guess it's sad but it had to be
i hope she knows that i will
always love her, love her,
love her, love her...
I'm waiting for nothing
this is really something
i' m telling you one thing
i' m waiting for nothing
