I called for you
I called for you
There you stood and all you had you gave to me

I couldn’t be
I couldn’t be
I was blindfolded but then you made me see

You never let me down
You never let me drown

Nothing ever matters dreaming dreams with
Problems seem to vanish in the haze
Always come to find the words that help me through
Girl you surely put me in a daze

I’m there for you
I’m there for you
With every little step that you might make
I love you
I love you
To the last breath that I will ever take

I’ll never let you down
I’d never let you drown

Refrain

Bridge.

How many times have I sworn not to go to extremes?
It seems the only thing that helps is this old six-string

Refrain.

‘Cause it keeps clearing my head when I’m in a haze
Clearing my head when I’m in a maze
Clearing my head when I’m in a maze again

II.

Pick up the phone and I start to smile
Tell her I love her and we talk for a while
Say something stupid, she hangs up on me
I bit my lip, make a cup of tee

Bridge.

Refrain.

III.

Seemed to be running from A-Z
Was chasing nothings but I didn’t see
Thought I was flying, then I hit the ground
I was so frightened by the truths I found

Bridge.

Refrain.

B-Teil
Every time I’m skipping my mind
I get myself in a situation
Feeling just fine then I drop a line
Again I’m the cause for agitation
Go to extremes in various means
Trying to find the right solution
Help isn’t far, just play this guitar
And away goes the confusion

Refrain

I.

Walking along, singing this song
Trying to find my destination
Searching within, till I begin
Seeing my soul and its formation

Bridge

Don’t move to fast
You’ve got to let moments last
Leave some traces where you go
Sometimes you need to be taking it slow

Refrain:

Taking it slow……..

II.

Chasing these dreams that burst at the seams
As soon as you hold them in your hands
Joy is so near, but we’re full of fear
Of stopping to look where we all stand

Bridge:

Life s’ too short to waste it
We don’t need that bling to taste it
Leave good traces where you go
Cause sometimes you need to be taking it slow

Refrain

We’re pushing, we’re shoving
We’re fighting and loving
Cause it’s always the one with the other
We’re truthful and lying
We’re grounded but flying
That’s the way it is ain’t it my brother
We’re chilling and hectic
Believing and sceptic
Still it’s keeping us all in a motion
We’re ill and we’re healthy
Poor and we’re wealthy
So clueless but we’ve got a notion

But we live in this one world with one another
And it’s about time that we both discovered
It’s not always this and that and white and black
But it’s one with the other
And that’s me and my brother

We’re trying, resigning
We’re falling and climbing
And we’ll always be searching solutions
We’re singing and silent
We’re peaceful and violent
We’re explaining our own evolutions
We’re eating and starving
Completing and halving
We’re only whole when we’re broken
We’re giving and taking
We’re real but we’re faking
There are so many things left unspoken

Refrain:

1) What on earth is going on
When there’s people killing and dramas filling up our lives
Don’t we know that wars aren’t won
Still we stick our flag in, just like stabbing with a knife

Bridge I
Are we blind to the world today
Things have always just been o.k.
Can’t we stop running away
From mistakes we’re making
It’s time we opened up our eyes

Refrain

Why don’t we lay our guns away
Make a change for the better
Don’t go waste a single day
Life’s what you make it so they say
So don’t let ignorance lead your mind astray

2) Can’t we tell right from wrong
This boat is sinking, cause we’ve stopped thinking with our minds
Keep on singing this old song
Gaining power hour by hour till we find

Bridge II
That we were blind to the world today
Things have never just been o.k.
There’s no more running away
From mistakes we’re making
It’s time we opened up our eyes

Refrain

Waiting here and I wanna die
My wings are broken and I can’t fly
Left here feeling high and dry
And time tells tales but I don’t know why

Bridge:
But I’m damned if I won’t survive
Cause my life still feels so alive
What I wait for will come
I won’t give up till I’m done

Feel fine funkin for fun
Sing songs second to none
Wait what weather will come
Soothe my soul in the sun

Life goes on but I’m lying here
Keep on fighting back this fear
And I hear the music in my ear
But it just won’t tell me when the coast is clear

Bridge
Break: Life’s a journey takes you high and low
Time’s a healer, come and let it go

Refrain

Words from me to you
To thank you for the things that you do
You give me so much strength in being my friend
You were there for me from beginning to end

You’ve always been the one
Shining for me like the sun
Whenever I was down and out you be right there
Whispering your words in my ear

Hold on to your dreams along the way
Cause people try to take them away
Remember that life owes nothing to you
It’s all up to you what you do

Thank you for the joy that you bring to me
Thank you for the times that you made me see
And I love talking to you ‘bout anything
Cause your mind is so powerful it makes me spin
I’ve got you back any time of day
No one’s gonna take your dreams away
Cause I’ll stand up for ya
They can’t floor ya
We’re there for one another and we’ll always be

Now that I have found
The thoughts that get me back on the ground
I know that it was you who led the way
These are the words I wanted to say

Yeah right

I
What can I do to make you wanna stay
I’d promise anything don’t run away
Alright I made mistakes that hurt you bad
I guess those other women made you sad

Bridge:
You’ll never find me cheat on you again
I won’t go drinking late at night with my friends

Yeah right, Yeah right

II
Sorry I treated you the way I did
But you tend to see me like I’m some kind of kid
I know your mamma doesn’t like what she sees
But love just ain’t like the birds and the bees

Bridge

Refrain
I’ll change my ways to comfort you
Ain’t nothing that I wouldn’t do
I’ll get a job and pay the bills
Buy flowers for your window sills
Clean the flat and learn to sow
Just promise me you never let me go
Yeah right, yeah right

III.
You’ll break my hart if you go out of that door
I said I’m sorry are you wishing for more
I’d write a poem girl if that makes you stay
24/7 you could have your own way

Bridge II
I’ll be the man that you want me to be
There’s no mistaking that I love you, Baby

Refrain

Storm

I.
Running away from the fun
Running away from the sun
Wishing the world would let me sleep now

II
Look in the sky but I can’t see
A single star that shines on me
Seems there’s nothing left to hope for

Refrain
Then I look into your eyes
The sunlight hits me by surprise
For just this moment I feel worm
Cause I’ve been saved, cause I’ve been saved from the storm

III
When there’s no more hope in site
When you feel nothing left to fight
And you see no one in yourself now

IV
Time flies by without a trace
And tears have stopped to touch your face
The signs are up there’s no way out now

Refrain

Am Ende: Cause you have saved me from the storm

Shag Blues

I.
I sit and listen to what you’ve got to say
Wishing my thoughts wouldn’t lead me astray
Trying to focus on the point that’s been made
But somehow tonight I simply wanna get laid

Bridge I

I’m sorry I don’t understand
Why somehow you don’t seem to be into one- night stands
There is nothing left to say or do
Cause I only wanna do it with you

II.
So hard trying to talk you out of that dress
My tactical methods seem related to chess
You don’t seem to realize the problem I’m in
As a chemical process takes control from within

Bridge I

III.
I give up hope of achieving my aim
Third night in a row that the outcome’s the same
Just as I’m about to pack my bags
You say to me sweetly do you fancy a shag

Bridge II.

I’m sorry I don’t understand
Why suddenly you seem to be into one-night stands
Now there’s so much left to say and do
Cause I’m gonna have a shag with

Bridge:
No time chance sorrow
It’s had its time
My hart is hungry for the opposite
It’s opened up and waiting to be fed

Refrain

I’m glad to say I’m back again…..
Just to let you know I’m back again….
Did you know that I was back again….
To let you know I’m back again
III.
No that I am home
Safe where I belong
It all made sense
Cause I learnt along the way

Bridge

Refrain
