i have got so much to give
and to learn what it takes to give
love was already there to be found

i`m standing in the open door
i am leaving now i can´t take it no more
you rip me up and piece by piece
you pick me up as if to see what`s underneath
i´m such a beautiful dream i wonder what is turning you around
when love was aready there to be found

i tell you that my love ist stronger
even stronger than i am
yeah, in fact i`m weak and lazy
i love to lay in bed and let my love go crazy
sometimes it turns me on
and we sing along together to this very old song that
love was already there to be found

and now i go ahead easy
because i need you so bad
yeah, well i`ll better be easy

i have got so much to give
and to learn what it takes to give
love was already there to be found

l o v e i s a b e t t e r w o r d ( w h i t e c i t y o f l i g h t )

white city of light
you´re dark in the middle
city of dreams
i want to hide in your womb
white city of light
you got me into trouble
city of lies
you took me for a fool

love is a better word
love is a better word
love is the only word
that you understand

white city of love
you`re such a pretender
city of sleep
you took all my energies
white city of light
oh i want to surrender
city of schemes
i am lost in your life

love is a better word
love is a better word
love is the only word
that you understand

got to find me a better word
got to get me an easy word

i am sad alright
but what a waste of time
i held you much too close
and now there`s something missing
but i can`t see the empty space
something else has taken place
i am sad alright
but what a waste of tears
i held you much too close
and now there`s someone missing
she is gone without a trace
just the expression on her face:
what a waste
there`s a flame and a fire and a body burning up
and a bird on a shape made of steel ohoh
he keeps on singing

it`s not exactly what you think
not exactly what you see
not exactly what you`ve learned
and what you will be learning

i am sad alright
but what a waste of breath
i`m only talking to relieve
although there`s noone listening
he is gone without a trace
just the expression on his face:
who`s to blame?
there`s a flame and a fire and a body burning up
and a bird on a shape made of steel, ohoh
he keeps on singing

it`s not exactly what you think
not exactly what you see
not exactly what you`ve learned
and what you will be learning

everytime you tell me
you tell me everything
i know i never lie but to myself
i never lie, but
every time you wake up
you make up mind
and when i close my eyes
i can forget you easier
easier is better than before

every time you love me
you try to love me really, i know
i`m not afraid of you
i am afraid of me
and every time you ask me
you ask me to be true
and when i give you what you want
no, we don´t change in any way
any way is better than before

every time you leave me
you promise that you`ll find me
a reason why, i know by now
a reason is impotant, ey?
and when i smile you`re happy
you hope that i was joking
maybe i should keep away from you
keep closer to myself
my self must be better than before

everytime you tell me
you tell me everything
i know i never lie but to myself
i never lie, but
every time you wake up
you make up mind
and when i close my eyes
i can forget you easier
easier is better than before

when i`m in love i hear: no
when i`m in love i hear : no
somewhere in the back of my head
i hate myself instead
somewher in the back of my mind
i stomp my feet and i am so unkind
when i`m in love i hear: no
i gotta fight - uhm
i gotta fight - uhm
i gotta fight - uhm
for being in love and alright

when i`m in love i hear: no
when i`m in love i hear: no
somewhere in the back of my head
i hate myself instead
something in the back of my heart
is tearing me apart
i gotta fight - uhm
i gotta fight - uhm
i gotta fight - uhm
for being in love and alright
for being in love and alright
for being in love and alright

you might be knocking
knocking knocking at my door
don`t you wonder, baby
you`ll find me
rocking rocking
back and forth on the floor

i hear a rocking song
it`ll take just as long
i need to enter the screen
to walk thru the mirror
down thru that hallway
within the walls, the lengh of my spine

i rock for my mama
rock for my papa
rock for my sister to get things right
i rock when i`m lonely
rock for you only
only you to hold me tight

this is a rocking song
it`ll take just as long
i need to enter the screen
to walk thru that mirror
down thru that hallway
within the walls, the lengh of my spine
i rock for my body
the feel for my body
i rock for a rhythm a reason a ryhme
just sittin` there swaying
pretending i`m trying
when i should be fighting for

sea of time
did you learn how to swim
did you learn how to move
sea of time
did you learn how to swim
did you learn how to move

you might be knocking
knocking knocking at my door
don`t you wonder, baby
you`ll find me
rocking rocking
back and forth on the floor

this is a rocking song
it`ll take just as long
i need to enter the screen
to walk thru that mirror
down thru that hallway
within the walls, the lengh of my spine
i rock for my body
the feel for my body
i rock for a rhythm a reason a ryhme
i rock for my freedom the feel of my freedom
i rock for a passion a party a thrill
now there`s someone pointing at me
with a finger
`cause i should be fighting for

sea of time
did you learn how to swim
did you learn how to move
sea of time
did you learn how to swim
did you learn how to move
if you don`t want to drown in this muddy water
you will have to move
you must learn how to swim
you have to have a plan
i follow my own little plan
and it`s right here
and when i looked
i saw
that somebody had erased my video scrapbook
and i said: shit!
is there nothing sacred anymore?
mmmmmmh
did you learn how to swim
did you learn how to move
yeah, did you learn how to move
and you gotta watch out for what they say
`cause they...sometimes they say:
take it easy
take it easy, now
but i know that
waking up ain´t easy, no
when you`re lonely
sea of time
did you
did you learn
now, did you learn how to swim
now, did you learn how to move
did you?
you wanna, you wanna drown in this muddy water
muddy water here i come, huh!
i wanna drown
sea of time
call me easy
say i`m strong
love me my way

ooh yeah

sea of time

thank you lover
you made me forget myself
i fell unconscious
and when i woke up
i was dreaming that i need you

thank you lover
but now i am far away from you
yet i`m another part of you
and i like to be dreaming
that i want you

thank you lover
you made me forget myself
no, i don`t want to recover
yeah, i like to be shifting

i am out here
i am happy
for the way that i feel
and i don`t bother finding out
what is fake or what is real
in the end i don`t remember
anything at all
i am here
and you are there
we could both be anywhere
nowhere to go

nowhere to go
it seems we`ve got nowhere to go
nowhere to go
it seems we`ve got nowhere to go
thank you lover
you made me forget myself
i fell unconscious
and when i woke up
i was dreaming that i need you
yes, and i heard you say
let`s just take the easy way
take it easy, take it easy
wakin´up ain`t easy, no
when you`re lonely
thank you lover
yeah, you made me forget

i am here
i am happy
for the way that i feel
and i don`t bother finding out
what is fake or what is real
in the end i don`t remember
anything at all
i am here
and you are there
we could both be anywhere
nowhere to go

nowhere to go
it seems we`ve got nowhere to go
nowhere to go
it seems we`ve got nowhere to go

here you are sporting those tiny pearls of pleasure
on your ears and in your hair
sometimes they`d flow from your eyes like tears
i used to pick the up and hoard them as a measure
of how alive you where that night
and yet how close to the end
i`d wrap`em up and shoot`em to the
moon
and if we try now just a little harder
we can go up there
and paint another
moon
(moon-moon all your light upon me)
i used to help you light up all the scented candles
yeah you wre well aware
of all the ghosts that would stare at you
since you became the only ghost inside my room
inside my heart
there`s perfume in the air no matter if it`s day or night
but if you want me to
i`d wrap`em up and shoot`em to the
moon
and if we try now just a little harder
we can go up there
and paint another
moon
(moon-moon all your light upon me)

hey, do you wanna play?
it goes like this...jesus first!

jesus first!, she says
and tumbles in the eye of god
i got to remind her of
the things we used to dream about
she tells me: whisper only
no, better don`t you speak at all
jesus first!, she sighs
jesus first!, she says
and tumbles right into my open arms
and i watch her
i know i`m not allowed to touch her
there is a very special kind of mutual loving
she hides her eyes and says it`s shocking
i don`t think i can take that much longer
i tell her any kind of love could make her stronger
she says:
yeah-yeah, jesus first!
aha, jesus first!, she sighs
jesus first!, jesus first!, she cries

jesus first!, she says
and tumbles in the eye of god
she changed her mind last night
the way we felt was beyond wrong or right
ahe looks at me and smiles
now ain`t there something missing
yeah, jesus first! we praise
jesus first!, she says
and tumbles back into my open arms
and i watch her
i know i`m not allowed to touch her
there is a very special kind of mutual loving
she hides her eyes and says it`s shocking
i don`t think i can take that much longer
i tell her any kind of love could make her stronger
she says:
yeah-yeah, jesus first!
aha, jesus first!, she sighs
jesus first!, jesus first!, she cries

there`s a little good looking love-god over here for you
jesus first!, we cry and tumble back into his open arms

i am the one to choose whatever i do
and if i choose to say whatever comes my way
is it a moment of truth or totally fake
it`s what i choose to take
and if i choose to suffer
i want to suffer real good
`cause than i know what i`ve got
and if it`s worth it or not
and if i choose to love you
with a love so strong
that i might even hate you some
i`ll be aware of what`s going on
i know that i choose right
when i don`t want to lose sight
and i see all i´ve got is the woman that i am
all i really own is this world i`m living in

here i choose to choose everything i can get
everything that i lose what i keep and what i let
every promise i make and every rule that i break
if i tumble and fall or if i take control
the things that i believe in fullfilling or deceiving
everything that i learn if i shine or if i burn
`cause the only thing i am responsible for
is what happens to me and to the whole wide world
it`s a good choice
when it is my choice

responsible is what you are
i guess that you can take it
responsible is what we are
we are, and i know that we can take it

and if i choose to party i want to party real hard
when i wanna be lonesome you won`t hear me complain none
and if i choose to miss you with all my might
it`ll be the only thing i`m good at then
the only thing that suits me right

i know that i choose right
when i don`t want to lose sight
and i see all i´ve got is the woman that i am
all i really own is this world i`m living in
