Life isn't that easy 04:22
lyrics

Imagine a world without colors Only black and white Imagine only two directions Left and right If there were no people Only a few Ooh life isn’t that easy Ooh life isn’t that easy isn’t that easy Imagine a land full of dreamers Ev’ry day and night With streets full of laughter and wonders So tender and nice Imagine a world without trouble Only very few Ooh life isn’t that easy …isn’t that easy …isn’t that easy A hand of a lovin’ woman It’s never too late Or a ring in the early morning Changing your fate There is light at the end of the tunnel But it is quite low Ooh life isn’t that easy Power of life is in Jesus That’s what they say But still they look out with their glasses Up the milky way ‘Though no one can really believe in Only a few Ooh life isn’t that easy .

Manana vienes 04:24
lyrics

una canoa llega a la orilla es el torrente que la luna ensilla todo lo añora esta corriente es una bruja de dulce aguardiente un rumor de ranas rojas despierta al bosque la promesa de que vienes enciende mi piel los dulces besos mi amor ardiente son el regreso de la creciente un papagayo verde naranja muerde los dedos de la soledad baila conmigo que ya amanece y las loritas ayudan a esperar un rumor de ranas rojas… los dulces besos … un rumor del corazón te está llamando es el río que vendrá ya estás llegando un rumor del corazón te está llamando en el río que vendrá ya estás llegando un papagayo verde naranja … una ranita se ha silenciado en este bosque es la luna que navega lejos de Borbón tus dulces besos… un rumor del corazón …te va llevando es el río que se va, va resollando un rumor del corazón te va llevando es el río que se va, va suspirando

in the days when I was young in the days when I was young hanging out all night was fun that's the way my life 's begun in the days when I was young in the days when I was young in the days when I was young our girls where full of laughter didn't ask what would be after all these days when I was young in the days when I was young in the days when I was young I was out in mother nature didn't think about my pay check in the days when I was young in the days when I was young in the days when I was young I had only love in mind being tender being kind in the days when I was young in the days when I was young it seemed so easy to be living in the palace of our dreams in this serenade to come didn't think about the future cause we had no yesterday in the days when I was young... in the days when I was young in the days when I was young there was nothing to remember in the fields of golden amber in the dawn of yesterday in the days when I was young in the days when I was young never knew about tomorrow tumbling through without no sorrows in the dawn of yesterday in the days when I was young it seemed so easy to be living in the palace of our dreams in this serenade to come didn't think about the future cause we had no yesterday in the days when I was young... in the days when I was young I was thinking of tomorrow as a far and distant monster that was never here to come that was never here to come but before I really knew it it was over – it was done...

It's a sad song if a man has to die it's a sad song if a friend tells a lie it's a sad song if the sea brakes a shell it's a sad song if it's your last farwell it's a sad song 'cause people still fight only a sad song if a fool thinks he's right it's a sad song if we wipe out the green oh a sad song if we just want to win it's a sad song if we kill our best if we don't care what's coming if we don't learn to rest it's a sad song if a train leaves tonight and the tears in your eyes shimmering bright it's a sad song if a son moves away if he ain't coming back no more he's not gonna stay it's a sad song could I turn back the time? could I save it from flying oh enemy mine you should stay here tonight you will see that's all right you will save me tonight from a sad song from a sad song it's a sad song if I play the last tune it's a sad song if it rains until noon it's a sad song since we lock our door just a sad song we don't talk anymore it's a sad song an old lady in black she lives on her memories keeps looking back you should stay here tonight you will see that's all right you will save me tonight from a sad song from a sad song it's a sad song if you only honor the dead but you step on the living crushing their heads it's a sad song how we walk through the night we do stumble to nowhere we turn off the light if we'd know what is coming we would still cut the flame we would kill our brothers again and again it's a sad song

Thinking of Xmas 04:01
lyrics

Sitting in the darkness Waiting for a friend of mine Knowing it is Xmas time Waiting for You Madness in the city lights People trade their hearts away Buying love for t’Xmas day At least for one night Thinking of Xmas Skating in the Park Candles in the darkness No commercial madness Thinking of a journey Forest all in white Dancing in the moonlight When I was a child… That was long ago You wouldn’t understand me Something you did never see Something like pure magic For you it’s just a fairy tale Just an old man’s memory Far from your reality Pictures from the past Thinking of Xmas Skating in the Park Candles in the darkness No commercial madness Thinking of a journey Forest all in white Dancing in the moonlight When I was a child… Sitting in the darkness…

Now I know 03:11

I wasn´t really what I thought to be Too many secrets between You and Me And I know And I know there were reasons enough to go I didn´t see there was a storm to come So many other things we could have done But I know But I know there were reasons enough to go You never ever saw the other side Always covered what I had to hide – but Finally I threw the key in the hole And finally revealed my soul If I had known before what I know now I did expect no marvels anyhow But I know But I know there were reasons enough to go A dirty contest between You and Me I never took a closer look to see Now I know Now I know there were reasons enough to go But then again how could I´ve known before So easy now since I found out much more I wonder if she´s gonna play my role And finally reveal her soul Is there a reason to give her a call To safe her future tell it all That she should play a different role And not reveal her naked soul So don´t reveal Your naked soul

The higher the tree 02:55
lyrics

I's born in the city of love 'though I don't recall nothing no more I believe in a spirit above never seemed to be a problem before as I played the sun-flooded streets then it was easy and happy and calm as I learned how to count how to read then all my friends didn't do me no harm didn't see the signs in the sky didn't listen to words from the past I believed each political lie That the best will be saved for the last Me old man told me as far I recall the higher the tree the deeper we fall now the years went, coming and going kept on running - the sands of time the older I am the more sliding and rolling only work for no dollar, no dime up and down the streets far too narrow and steeper the hills the longer I go the eagle has turned into a sparrow totally scared towards the end of the show who knows what's coming six feet down under all we can do is learn from the past all we can do is sit down and wonder why the best will be saved for the last Me old man told me as far I recall the higher the tree the deeper we fall

Wenn ich aufwach´ und ich seh´ dein Lächeln obwohl du schläfst – die Sonne malt´s in dein Gesicht Hebt sich langsam mein Herz zum Himmel gleich machst du die Augen auf drehst dich zu mir Ich liebe den Moment kurz davor, bevor der eine Augenblick, den niemand vorher kennt Einsam warten deine Stimme nach der Landung macht mich glücklich alles ist gut Nicht mehr lange spüre schon die Arme wie du mich Minuten hälst beim Wiedersehen Ich liebe den Moment kurz davor, bevor der eine Augenblick, den niemand vorher kennt Ich liebe den Moment kurz davor, bevor… Beide Hände Halten fest umschlungen Kettenseile, es beginnt sich jetzt zu drehen Wie ein Vogel Schwingt sich hoch das Karoussel Ich kann fliegen! – über der Welt Ich liebe den Moment kurz davor, bevor…

Country life 03:32

Let us be friends And sit down together Let us sing songs Until the night is done Another morning Will bring another day The sun will rise And sweep our fears away Let us sit down Around our fire place Let us forget The darkness all around After sundown We come together And no one cares About the weather I guess they’ll never end The dreamy summer nights We´re gonna be carefree Till the morning light And country life will never end The yellow corn fields Rustle in the morning breeze When we all sleep Caught up in memories And I can tell you I see a lotta smiles When I rise The other friends still sleep a while I guess they’ll never end The dreamy summer nights We´re gonna be carefree Till the morning light And country life will never end And there was singing And dancing all night long And now they dream Of another country song We where together One year on the road Nearly a sin To end it all and See them go I guess they’ll never end The dreamy summer nights We´re gonna be carefree Till the morning light And country life will never end I guess they’ll never end...

Love is in your eyes 03:37
lyrics

I can see your loving eyes I can see your body is trembling And the way how you face him Reveals that it’s all ending You are leaving, you’re receding Lost in an empty space Love is in your eyes And I ask myself just why Did I never realise There were clouds on the horizon And mist behind your eyes You are leaving, you’re receding Lost in an empty space Love is in your eyes Could we start it once again? Yes I know that we would make it I keep calling out your name Cause I know that I can’t take it If you really put me down So please turn around Love is in your eyes… We had days you will remember Tender hours in the past Flowers in the kitchen Raindrops on the grass Do you put it all away now Lock it in your mind Cause love is in your eyes I can see your loving eyes I can see your body is trembling You are leaving, you’re receding Lost in an empty space Love is in your eyes Could we start it once again? Yes I know that we would make it I keep calling out your name Cause I know that I can’t take it If you really put me down So please turn around Love is in your eyes Love is in your eyes Love is in your eyes…

Wärst du damals herabgestiegen von den Dünen Oh ich hätte dich geliebt Wie noch nie ein Mensch zuvor Nur das Wasser kam Und das Wasser ging Aber du bist nie gekommen Wärst du damals Meiner Stimme nachgegangen Hättest meinen Blick geseh´n Ich weiss wir hätten uns gefunden Nur das Wasser kam Und das Wasser ging Aber du bist nie gekommen Nie gefunden, nie passiert Nie geliebt und nie berührt Nie begegnet, nie geseh´n Geht vorbei – ist nichts gescheh´n Wärst du damals Von deinem Pferd gestiegen Hättest dich mir anvertraut Ich weiss, du wärst bei mir geblieben Nur das Wasser kam Und das Wasser ging Aber du bist nie gekommen Wenn du einmal In deinem langen Leben Meiner Stimme zugehört Du wärst nie mehr fortgegangen Nur das Wasser kam Und das Wasser ging Aber du bist nie gekommen Nie gefunden, nie passiert Nie geliebt und nie berührt Nie begegnet, nie geseh´n Geht vorbei – ist nichts gescheh´n
