lyrics »Dear John«

[01] EVERYTHING

You can be my everything

Be my anything

You are my inspiration

I feel nothing

Once we flew so high

Now we down on earth

Go, go, go away

Leave me alone

I kiss your lips, your face

Sayin’ good-bye

Don’t look back – no

There’s no reason why

You are my everything

You are my everything

You are my everything

Bye, bye, bye

Don’t wanna hurt you no more

Wanna hurt you no more

It is my decision

My own vision

It’s my future now

It comes so clear

Wanna feel love my dear

My dear

You are my inspiration

But I feel nothing 

-------------------------------------------

[02] DEAR JOHN

Dear John

One hundred letters, maybe more

Dear John

Words full of love and fears and more

Dear John

Now it’s time to live, live on my own

Dear John

Now it’s time to go, go different roads

You are lost in the past

My love won’t last

When you full of fears

Dear John

My ambitions now are gone

Dear John

No time, no chance to turn around

Dear John

There is no rest for you to understand>

Dear John

I feel my love is gone

You are lost in the past

When you full of fears>

Love ends up in tears

 -------------------------------------------

[03] SUN

A few words, I feel my heart

Loud and fast, it seems to burst

A short moment, a sheepish smile

This is more than sympathy

Fascination, my desire grows

My mind is open, I walk on air

You bring light,  when it’s dark

I see our shadows fused

You are my sun, sweet little sun

Am I just a mess for you?

You bring warmth into my heart

Is there hope for everyone?

I wait `til the morning comes

A few words, I feel my heart

Loud and fast, it seems to burst

-------------------------------------------

[04] SING WITH ME

Sing with me

If there are no more words to say

Laugh with me

If all our tears are cried

Run with me,

If all our bones are broken

Dance with me

Bury me so deep

My broken wings

Can’t stop me now to get close to you

My broken wings

No big disease will tear us apart

Talk to me

If there are no more fairy tales

Sleep with me

If all our friends are dead

Don’t cry for me

Just sing along with me

Think of me

The times we’re fallen in love

Remember me

Before we fade to grey

Believe in me

Don’t burn our future plans

-------------------------------------------

[05] Fly

You can run, if you want to

You can swim, if you like

You can fly, watch me fly

You can dance, dance with me

I feel free, love is easy

Can’t you see, dance with me

I feel the sun on my skin

And your smile makes me want to fly

Feel the sun on your skin

Turn around like the wind

I feel free, love is easy

Can’t you see, dance with me

I feel the sun on my skin

And your smile makes me want to fly

[06] HUNTING ANIMAL

I’m the hunting animal

The animal in a cave

The wild, but married whore

Your drunken enemy

I’m the dead born child

And mothers’ cries by night

I’m the secret of your fears

That’ll never disappear

I’m the urban animal

The animal in yours veins

The lost and rotten son

Your deepest fear by night

You can see me in your face

Feel me in your veins

You can be where you wanna be

I’ll always be near

 And I will be near

Because I’m your deepest fear

 I’m the wounded animal

The animal in a maze

The dark and fallen angel

Your lightning in the night

I’m your guilt, your hurt, your pain

The last thing you will feel

     The idea to leave this world

While you’re running through this maze

 -------------------------------------------

[07] LEAVE YOU ONE DAY

I’d like to thank you

For your sympathy

I’d like to thank you

For being next to me

I’d like to thank you

For being what you are

I’d like to thank you,  

You know you are may star

But you will leave me one day

You will leave me one day

I’d like to thank you

You’ve ever been so kind

I’d like to thank you

For things you won’t mind

I’d like to thank you

For making me so blind

I’d like to thank you, thank you

Your are all I feel

All I feel is you

You are in my dreams,

I only dream of you

Why I feel so sad

Instead of being glad?

Oh, I tried so hard not to going mad

That’s why I leave you today 

-------------------------------------------

[08| SPACE BETWEEN

  I feel, I’m one of Gods mistakes

 That’s why I’m loving you

 I feel, oh, nothing

 There’s so much silence in here

 What I mean

The space between

 When I say

I love you

I feel, so much love and hate

 I’m such a little creep

 I feel, oh, darling

 There’s so much violence in here

-------------------------------------------

[09] STILL

 We never thought about the times

The times of all diseases

Now we sit here and wait

I have changes all my colors

Into grey and black

While you cut my hair, I asked myself

 Will you still be there, still be there

Dumb and blind, fade to grey my dear

 Poisoned by your smile and words

Words so sweet, but so unreal

I burn my memories, I try to forget

-------------------------------------------

[10] SOUNDS

Long time ago …

Maybe 20 years, maybe more

A stuffy bar

Too many drinks, I know

First time we

We created a wall ...

We believed in music

Walk on, baby

We will never leave this path

I’ve got nothing left to lose

I held all my dreams so close

I’m still right here, my dear

  Eternity

We felt so free

No shackles kept us on the ground

Lights of fascination that acted like drugs

This time won’t come back

But we’ll still be there

We can complete

What we started once

So let’s complete

Sounds, sounds, sounds
