Is This Love 

I should have known better than to let you go alone
It's times like these I can't make it on my own
Wasted days and sleepless nights
And I can't wait to see you again
I find I spend my time waiting on your call
How can I tell you, babe, my back's against the wall
I need you by my side to tell me it's all right
'Cause I don't think I can take anymore
Is this love that I'm feeling?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love or am I dreaming?
This must be love
'Cause it's really got a hold on me
A hold on me
Can't stop this feeling, I've been this way before
But with you I've found the key to open any door
I can feel my love for you growing stronger day by day
And I can't wait to see you again
So I can hold you in my arms
Is this love that I'm feeling?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love (is this love?) or am I dreaming?
This must be love
'Cause it's really got a hold on me
A hold on me
Is this love that I'm feeling?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love (is this love?) or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love (is this love?) or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love (is this love?) or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love (is this love?) or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?
Is this love (is this love?) or am I dreaming?
Is this the love that I've been searching for?

That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore

Park the car at the side of the road
You should know
Time's tide will smother you
And I will too
When you laugh about people who feel so
Very lonely
Their only desire is to die
Well, I'm afraid
It doesn't make me smile
I wish I could laugh
… But that joke isn't funny anymore
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
It's too close to home
And it's too near the bone
More than you'll ever know ...
… Kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
You kick them when they fall down
Kick them when they fall down
… It was dark as I drove the point home
And on cold leather seats
Well, it suddenly struck me
I just might die with a smile on my
Face after all
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
And now it's happening in mine
Oh ...
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh ...
And now it's happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh...
And now, now, now it's happening in mine
(I've seen this happen)
Happening in mine
Oh...now, now
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh...
And now it's happening in mine
(Happen)
Happening in mine
Oh...
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
Happening in mine
… I've seen this happen in other people's
Lives
Oh...
And now, now, now it's happening in mine
Happening in mine
Mine, mine
Happening in mine

That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore

Paintbox 

Last night I had too much to drink
sitting in a club with so many fools
playing to rules
trying to impress and feeling rather empty
I had another drink

What a way to spend that evening
you don't turn up with their friends
playing their game
here in the scene or it should be
far away

Getting up first without remembering
where I've been
I open the door to an empty room
then I forget
The telephone rings and someone speaks
she would very much like to go
out to a show
so what can I do, I can't think what to say
she sees trough any way

Out of the front door I go
traffic's moving rather slow
arriving late
there she waits looking very angry
as cross as she can be

Pale Shelter 

How can I be sure?
When your intrusion is my illusion
How can I be sure
When all the time you changed my mind
I asked for more and more
How can I be sure
When you don't give me love (You gave me pale shelter)
You don't give me love (you give me cold hands)
And I can't operate on this failure
When all I want to be is
Completely in command
How can I be sure
For all you say you keep me waiting
How can I be sure
When all you do is see me through
I asked for more and more
How can I be sure
When you don't give me love (You gave me pale shelter)
You don't give me love (you give me cold hands)
And I can't operate on this failure
When all I want to be is
Completely in command
I've been here before
There is no why, no need to try
I thought you had it all
I'm calling you, I'm calling you
I ask for more and more
How can I be sure
When you don't give me love (You gave me pale shelter)
You don't give me love (you give me cold hands)
And I can't operate on this failure
When all I want to be is
Completely in command
You don't give me love
You don't give me love
You don't give me love
You don't give me love
You don't give me love
You don't give me love

This year is another boring one

Just you wait and see…nothing’s gonna happen this year… I’ll just be waiting for nothing…

It’s gonna be another boring shitty year … I hate the world today.

I wish something big would happen… maybe WW3 or a gigantic stock market crash…
This year is another boring one

I Remember You 

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain

The wind would whisper and I'd think of you

And all the tears you cried, that called my name

And when you needed me I came through

I paint a picture of the days gone by

When love went blind and you would make me see

I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes

So that I knew you were there for me

Time after time you were there for me

Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand

Love letters in the sand - I remember you

Through the sleepless nights and every endless day

I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you

We spend the summer with the top rolled down

Wished ever after would be like this

You said I love you babe, without a sound

I said I'd give my life for just one kiss

I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss
Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand

Love letters in the sand - I remember you

Through the sleepless nights and every endless day

I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you

We've had our share of hard times

But that's the price we paid

And through it all we kept the promise that we made

I swear you'll never be lonely

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain

Washed away a dream of you

But nothing else could ever take you away

'Cause you'll always be my dream come true

Oh my darling, I love you

Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand

Love letters in the sand - I remember you

Through the sleepless nights and every endless day

I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you

Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand

Love letters in the sand - I remember you

Through the sleepless nights and every endless day

I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you

The Ocean 

We've done four already but now we're steady
And then they went: One, two, three, four"
Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Got no time to pack my bags, my foots outside the door
I got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball, uh uh, uh uh, yeah
Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, I play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about the good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost its way
I don't know, oh oh, yeah'
Ooh, yeah
Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day
Used to sing about the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to start
Oh yeah!
It sure is fine!
Ah blow my mind!
When the tears are goin' down!

Yeah! Yeah, yeah
Oh so, oh so, oh so good!
Oh so good!
