Void
I had a dream about the old days
you were lonely with the wind outside
nobody on the whole place
I had a dream about the old days
you were dressed in black like we were back then
dressed in black like we were back then
Back then I was only
good enough to heal the pain I caused
you dreamed of better days
I dreamed of better love
I had a dream you were going nowhere
I had a dream you were going somewhere else and I
had nowhere else to go
We had a couple times
we let the world just spin around
but it got dark these days
seems we just lost our ways
You had a couple wishes
you kept inside your lungs
when you were half way out the door
I screamed them out my lungs
And I was in a mood
kept thinking all the worlds a stage
what I ignored then was the fact
it‘s quite alone here quite a cage

Book
07:58
|

I wrote a book about you and made nobody read it
because I want to
make you feel like I don‘t care though I always
think about you
And all of these notes I take they‘re always competing
with all of those lines you
write in that state of mind and I‘ll never reach it
maybe I don‘t want to
Oh, what a fool was I to
think that it did all go wrong
and after
all those days I‘ve wasted
I know that I am not
on my own
Every time I close my eyes I want to go back in time
and spend my days into the wild
and every time I see your face it scares me
that we can‘t get rid of our stupid pride
And every time I think about the things that we once did
I wonder how they would work out today
and every time my mind plays tricks on me again
I figure out all the words I might say
So don‘t get lost in time and space
this world is cruel but the only place
and you can make it your home or
let it go

Ghost
04:58
|
|||
Have you ever seen a ghost
cause I, I do wonder where they come where they go
in the daylight there must be a place
where they don‘t haunt nobody and they see their own face
In the water
So I spend my evenings near rivers and lakes,
when the sun stops to shine and the wind starts to blow
and I wonder when they will come out of the water
I‘ll see who they where and I‘ll ask them to go
Have you ever spent your time
with someone you loved, but you didn‘t deserve yet
and all of the things you admired
where not like the things that you missed
When she asked you to go
Have you ever spent
the whole week in your basement
the TV aside and the rain on your window
with nobody there you will soon realize
There‘s a ghost
So you spend your evenings near rivers and lakes,
when the sun stops to shine and the wind starts to blow
and you wonder when they will come out of the water
You‘ll see who they where and you‘ll ask them to go
Have you ever felt like your life
was just treating water and water and water
the darker and longer the nights
you see clear that the shadow that haunts you it must be a ghost
There is a ghost
So we spend our evenings near rivers and lakes
when the sun stops to shine and the wind starts to blow
and we wonder when they will come out of the water
we‘ll see who they were and we‘ll ask
why they go where they go
Where did you go
Why did you go

Child
03:45

When I was a lonely
child running home
there were things that disturbed me
so many things I didn‘t know
So many things that you don‘t need
they‘re selling dreams on the TV
they‘re trying hard to beat you up
trying hard to slow you down
If we should ever meet again
around that stinging nettle field
I‘ll throw you right in
feel the pain that I once
When I was a lonely
child running home
I made a plan that I once
would stop to run and go
So many things that you don‘t need
they‘re selling dreams on the TV
they‘re trying hard to beat you up
trying hard to slow you down
If we should ever meet again
around that stinging nettle field
I‘ll throw you right in
feel the pain that I once feared
Cause there are times
that you might fight along the way
and there are times
that you might lose along the way
but when I‘m ever close to home
I count the steps to you my friend

Portugal
05:29
|
|||
You set the world on fire
at least the world that I know
and you made a promise you‘d follow
wherever I go
I was lost I was found
and you turned my whole life upside down
now I write cheesy songs about things
that I want you to know
I love the way that you kiss
when you tell me goodbye
and I love the smell of your skin
in the dark of the night
And I spent the most
beautiful weeks of my life
stumbling with you through the beautiful streets
of Lisbon and Porto by night
I‘m sorry for being a hypocrite
I‘m sorry for being a fool
I‘m sorry for sometime just fading to dust
I‘m sorry for being here without you
When you‘re far away I don‘t know what to do
cause I know we‘re both not that good by the phone
I got serious stuff that I do on the road
you got serious stuff that you do staying home
But I know you hate
to sleep alone

Shadow
06:46
|
|||
I saw a shadow in the night
somewhere in the darkness
and I heard a voice from the trees
when I was alone in the woods
and I wonder where that time has gone
when you were my best friend
cause it is that time of the year
when I feel alone for a while
Just hand me out the keys
and I‘ll fly our rocket to the moon
let us colonize the stars leave the earth
I‘ll give you all of my time
I spent my day on the street
in the town where we grew up once
and I wrote your names on the walls
so they could not forget them
Just hand me out the keys
and I‘ll fly our rocket to the moon
let us colonize the stars leave the earth
I‘ll give you all of my time
I traced your footsteps on the ground
right there where I found myself
and I followed you around

Trains
05:10
|
|||
If I had known before
that I‘d rather have your name
on my door than on my list
of calls I didn‘t make
still awake in the morning
of all of them good things I missed
If I had known before
that I‘d sit alone in trains
that I‘d stare at your photo for miles
I would have tried to kiss your face
when it was still right next to mine
what if I had known that we had just one night
Maybe it was best that you went home
for the both of us
time will let us know
cause the more that you got stuck in my head
it got harder
for me to pack my bags and go
Cause all I need is all that you‘ve got
and it may take a lifetime
to get you off my mind
I dreamed that we made love
in the garden of my house
I better get one
and ask you to come out
but for a couple years I‘ll
be out of town.
