Take Your Time Blues
(From
the album "Songs
That We All Recognize")
Time, time, I need time.
Time, time, Prime Time.
I can’t hurry home
It’s no crime to count t’ four
Take your
Time.
Don’t worry or despair
-you will get there!
Fill up with space,
Set your heart’s pace
In
Time, time…
Climb down
Wag along
Sing a slow song
Have a lazy day, wag away
In
Time…
Available
(From
the album "Songs That We All Recognize")
I see some faces in a certain frame – available.
Whether they want or not they’re in the game- available.
Ev’ryone
is waiting, ev’ryone’s debating
ev’ryone is standing by.
Ev’ryone is hoping, ev’ryone is moping
ev’ryone is running out of time.
I
see some actresses, they play it well – available.
But wheter they want or not a face can tell – available.
Morninglight,
shouldn’t the blue be bright?
But muddy green comes in sight.
I see a minute-hand that’s not in mine – available.
Babble
(From
the album "Babble")
A little babble makes my day pushes time to think away,
no can’t hesitate one minute, I just have to get on with it,
dreams I’ve had have now come true, my strong heart beats for two!
Two
blue eyes, a little nose, oh how sweet to feel him close,
there’s a mess in my fine order, nothing’s like the calm before,
the babbling chat I love to hear makes my silence disappear
His
tiny finger points at dogs, flags, the moon, cars and frogs.
On and on his hand invites me, shows me clouds that
move excites me -Look at that and look at this. Watch
out here’s a big wet kiss!
Used
to doubt I now surrender for this obvious love so tender
With his babble in my ear I easily continue my career,
need his little hand to squeeze,
need him to feel at ease.
Little Lily
(From
the album "Babble")
Little Lily saves her plan
for a certain man
silently
hides it all so fine
Little Lily can´t deny
she is standing by
silently
waiting for a sign
Lily, tempted by a liar
and some promises
Lily, glorifies someone
we know cannot stay
to satisfy her,
to love her all the way
Lily
may not get anything from him
Lily hasn’t got a chance
Lily may not be the one that gets it in the end
Little
Lily won´t let go
hides it in the snow
silently
covers her desire
Lily loves a married man
will he ever then
finally
leave that life behind
Mr. Nice Guy
(From
the album "Babble")
I met my man in the holy land
on a camel he came.
I melted in the sun on a heap of sand
and suddenly I was tame.
Tame and kind and good again,
even lovely and cute!
I´ve been bitter, bad, insane,
faith brought suddenly truth.
Listen to the Nice Guy...
Well, no more ghosts and
no more SOB´s will appear.
Reality that they hid from me I finally see clear.
All the gravel, dirt and shame
came from their own graveyard,
didn´t suit me playin´ their game,
I got my own playin´card.
Listen to the Nice Guy
Listen to the Nice Guy
He became my Wice Guy, my Nice Guy
Come on up, he said,come on up!
Listen to the Nice Guy
He will stay - he will....
I know my poor heart stood
still, almost an hour and I could
not move or talk, but I would
since people told me that I should...
...listen to the Nice Guy.
Nothing
(From
the album "Babble")
Nothing is plenty
bad thoughts create
voices, never agreed
inside my head
a scale
I move smooth
Having is nothing
if it´s too late
senses, never agreed
inside my head
a scale
I move smooth
Dream
(From
the album "From Dusk To Dawn")
Used to lie in bed at night waitin’ for the shepherd
Now I get up to my rooftop to send all the sheep away
I
drink the air and loose control, watch me while I’m fallin’
Suddenly other dimensions are takin’ me to something…
Free
to think and set up stories
Free to speak the language that is in my
Dream-
my rescue
Dream- don’t argue
Dream- I’d like to dream a little more, let’s continue
Through
the silence shines the moon like a golden trumpet
Better be careful- I’m weightless, playin’ around with moonbeams
When
I’m bored It’s time to land in another movie
Wanna get down to the rhythm that beets the bossa nova
Free
to think and set up stories
Free to speak the language that is in my dream
Grandma
(From
the album "From Dusk To Dawn")
Sit down for a while now and sing me a song, tell me
just one of your stories Feed me with knowledge and
your common sense, take away some of my worries
Draw
me a picture, show me a tree, and let me smell
all the spices I’ll taste your cookies, we’ll go to the sea,
watching the sun while it rises
Fantasy,
memory
painting my sad reality
Heavenly, silently
You give my mind personality
Let’s
finish our coffee and go for a walk down to the
little town station Find me the right train and wave
me goodbye Bye Angel, my mind’s own sensation
It’s
Your Colour
(From
the album "From Dusk To Dawn")
Life’s a wave of paint. Sometimes black, sometimes blue,
a few are faint, some are strong, not too long though
You
may not prevent all the colours of fate, just wait
It’s meant that a picture will be showin’ the flowin’ of life
Spring
and a fall of a summer will make you secure, so sure
But then that old cold season disappoints you
Get
yourself inspired by the dark and the light, just fight
Get tired in your eyes and they soon will be growin’ wise
And
you’ll feel all the colours you have known they’re your own.
Too Many
(From
the album "From Dusk To Dawn")
Too many fates to spare
Too many precious tears to be wasted, never tasted
-better be aware!
Too
many hearts to fail
Too many hands that reach for solution, evolution
-maybe to no avail
Easy
to go on and on
-but what if we picked the last of flowers?
Easy to believe they will always be
-but what if we haven’t done enough, we’ve thought
too many thoughts
Too
many lazy days
Too amny actions taken too badly
We should gladly learn some other ways
We
(From
the album "From Dusk To Dawn")
Hold me, touch me , say it’s true
look into my eyes
Rock
me, watch me, I’m ok
let’s betray the lies
Our
home, safe and sound
on a stable ground
Our love feeds the sun
when the strong winds blow
Need
me, teach me, let love flow
from below to Paradise
Ask
And Answer
What is true what is false, who’s a chicken ‘n’ who’s
got balls?
What is cooked and what is raw, who’s the judge and what’s the law?
I
imagine, say I bet what you say you will forget
Later on you’re in a trap, no use cryin’ upon my lap
Ask
yourself dear, there’s an answer
Ask and answer, your life is such a lie
What
is right, What is wrong, who is weak and who is strong?
What destroys, what sustaines, what falls down and what remains?
I
have planned to straighten things out, and I will succeed, no doubt
Lucky you, you have been heard, I recorded ev’ry word
Now
I’ll send them to your friend, soon you’ll see the bitter end
Honesty will win at last, movin’ on I’m doin’ it fast
Ask
yourself dear, there’s an answer
Ask and answer, your life is such a lie
