beggin' for bread Who tell me who Who heals the pain - when hearts feel so sad Who tell me who We're watching children die Don't wanna hear about why Ran out of reasons to cry While it kills you and me - but we all let it be Wake up - somebody wake up somebody help me try Wake up - somebody wake up Somebody open our eyes Who counts the sin - in a holy war Who tell me who Who's gonna open - when you knock on a door Who tell me who We're counting tears in the rain Wasting our time - insane and in vain Look for somebody to blame While it kills you and me - we all let it be ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2) Just To Say We Did (Lessmann, Ziller) 5:29 A century - must have passed us by We sat and talked all night Some cheap stuff - just we in the candlelight Playin' princess and knight We drive all night without reason Just to say we did Freakin' out - on wild, wild music 'nd let our stereo bleed Maybe we'll be breakin' rules Maybe people call us fools We don't care what our neighbors say Baby - take me away Just to say - we did We get a little crazy Just to say - we did We fool around like kids Just to say - we did We loose ourselves in dreamin' Just to say - we did We do all what we did Paper cups - and plastic cutlery We stay in bed all day We celebrate - our second honeymoon Like it was yesterday We're watching Laurel and Hardy Black'n'white on TV Pillow fighting - the way like lovers do Lover's ABC We're getting off our beaten track 'nd find our way without a map Leavin' our do's and don'ts Just do what we want ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3) Before We Say Goodbye (Lessmann, Ziller) 4:03 Let's all drink up - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Let's all shake hands - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Thank you for giving us a good time Thank you for being here tonight Let's sing this song - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Let's bury our argues - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Let's all give love - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye You make me feel like I'm in heaven Thank you from the bottom of my heart Let's sing this song - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Sometimes it feels like roaring thunder When sparks of love light up the night Let's praise the Lord - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Let's bless our children - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye Thank you for giving us a good time Thank you for being here tonight Just one more time - yeah yeah - before we say good-bye ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4) Somebody's Waiting (Lessmann, Ziller) 3:58 Your feelings - and memories Are just like broken glass Your tears flow - like rivers And birds have lost their songs No words - to comfort you They taste like cheap champagne Don't ever loose your faith in love And you will smile again - 'cause Somebody's waiting - for you Even if your heart is bleeding Somebody's waiting - for you To give you all you're dreaming of Rain's falling - all over you It's pounding on your wounds Sun's hiding - before your eyes It cuts your heart in two Some wounds get deeper and deeper And time won't ease your pain Just trust in love - sometimes it hurts Cause love will never change ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5) Lay Your Heart On The Line (Lessmann, Ziller) 5:13 I can relate that you're hiding your feelings Too many times they've been makin' you sad Girl I'm the man who won't play with your yearnings Open up your heart babe 'cause I won't treat you bad Deep down inside you're so hungry baby Make up your mind 'cause we ain't livin' in sin Lay your heart on the line Don't keep it inside 'Cause love just walked into your door Lay your heart on the line And you'll gonna find the reason we're livin' for Caught up in dreams, why don't you surrender Whole lotta passion is waiting for you What does it take to be part of your dreamin' Love ain't just a word, c'mon open up inside Don't loose yourself in hesitation You gotta fight - straight from your heart - straight from your heart ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6) Hearts Bleed Their Own Blood (Lessmann, Ziller) 5:53 I remember - walkin' hand in hand - with you I remember - drawing hearts in the sand - so true But one fine day you've thrown it all away - 'nd left for another man 'nd sometimes truth hurts more than a lie - though it's hard to understand Hearts beat their own beat With every little teardrop from your eyes Hearts bleed their own blood 'nd there ain't nothing's gonna cure a bleeding heart but love I still miss you - even after all those years 'nd I still kiss you - in my dreams you're always here No - I can't live without you baby - I guess you broke this heart of mine Like a chord that weeps the minor way - it makes me wanna cry I would do everything to win you back again and be there for you I'd give my life for you baby I still love you ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7) Rock Me Till I Die (Lessmann, Ziller) 3:57 Well you're my lady - and I'm your man We'll always try to do the best that we can Still feels so good - when you hold me tight Come on baby - rock me 'til I die Some roads were stony - some roads were rough We sticked together and we'll never get enough Still got this feeling - deep inside Come on baby - rock me 'til I die Nobody told us, what we should do We did what we did - and we made it all through Somebody said, that everything has an end But not our love - it must be heavensent I said hey - gimme your lovin' I said hey - it feels so right I said hey - gimme your lovin' Baby rock me 'til I die Never let you down - that's what you said 4 little words that I will never forget Thank God for your love - money just can't buy Come on baby - rock me 'til I die Nobody told me about a love like such Baby all that I need is your kiss and your touch Somebody said, always open your heart Baby that's what promise 'til death do us apart ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8) Desire (Lessmann, Ziller) 5:23 So many words - you wish to say So many tears - all cried out in vain Hold me - love me - the beat of a lonely heart You try to hide - your heartache inside You find yourself - in your favourite dreams Nobody knows - how it hurts and how it feels Desire - burning in your heart Desire - pleasure and pain Desire - tearing your heart apart and it holds you like in chains Moments of love - passing you by Moments of truth - upwaking sighs Free me - save me - songs of a lonely soul Night's falling down - and youíre dreaming away You walk alone - down those empty streets Nobody knows - how it hurts and how it feels ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 9) Good Or Bad (Lessmann, Ziller) 4:02 Walkin' down those empty streets Feeling tired of playin' the game You're captured in a town that doesn't sleep You wanna run away from your life But you gotta face the truth Your conscience gives you the pain you feel at night You're lookin' out for a new horizon While you still take the money and run But you know there ain't compromisin' When you play with a gun Good or bad Get it on your mind again Good or bad Never let it end It's good or bad Is it right or is it wrong Yet it's hard for you to tell You try to escape the jungle out on the street Much too long you've been on the run Oh how you long to draw a line You can't rely on friends, you're on your own It's the struggle of survival What you're facing everyday Sometimes even suicidal When you're loosing your way ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 10) The First Cut Is Deepest (Cat Stevens) 4:25 (from Cat Stevens "New Matters" (1989)) I would have given you all of my heart But there's someone who's torn it apart And she's taken just all that I had But if you want I'll try to love again baby Honey I'll try to love again but I know The first cut is the deepest - baby I know The first cut is the deepest When it comes to bein' lucky she's cursed When it comes to lovin' me she's worse I still want you by my side Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried And I'm sure gonna give you a try And if you want I'll try to love again baby Honey I'll try to love again but I know ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 11) You'll Be Alright (Lessmann, Ziller) 5:48 Open your eyes - see how it feels Colourful moments of truth Deep down inside - covered with lies You'll find somebody to love - and that is you Shattered by storms - intoxicated dreams You've lost your vision of life Easier said - to shake it loose - than it's done for you Shake your head - and say no to things that made you feel so sad I know - you'll be alright Just dare a new way in your life I know - it'll turn out right And love will cut you like a knife Mystical tours - in occultism's world One way ticket to hell Love or hate - it can be your damnation or your salvation Turn your fate - dare a brandnew journey - into shining light So you can call me a hypocrite A liar, an idiot, or a piece of shit No matter what you'll say or do I'll never give up telling you I know - you'll be alright Just dare a new way in your life I know - God will give you time And love will cut you like a knife ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12) Dixie (traditional) 3:24 I wish I was in the land of cotton Old times there are not forgotten Look away -
