Listening to the whispering fields By the blow of the wheels My heart is not where I go Somehow I’m lookin’ for a way not to feel How tender it seems to me when you took my hand Sometimes I plead – Angel Could I just leave it all Sometimes I feel that you’re with me Though I know well – that you far away Maybe faith will be – for you and for me Make a wish come true – ’cause I love you Lookin’ for these pictures you made This time cannot fade I still keep watchin’ you now Somehow I keep what I promised in May But love cannot wait until the end of our days Sometimes I plead – Angel Could I just leave it all All my thoughts and duty – Angel!!! Could I just be with you Sometimes I feel that you’re with me Though I know well – that you far away Maybe faith will be – for you and for me Make a wish come true – ’cause I love you

Mission Hymn 04:19
Going up the river congo There's a steamboat, plain to see Endless seems to be it's journey Yet there's still a hopeful gleam Pilgrims reaching out for missions The captain reaching out for one Who has stripped off his convictions Whose humanity's all gone Whites consider him an agent Natives praise him as their god No-one knows what happened to him, yeah to him Here at this unearthly spot Where a spoken word means justice And nightmares are reality Where the people muse and wonder What their aim in life might be Hear the pumping heart of darkness Feel the savage call inside Mankind's living in a flicker Who can say which way's the right The steamer is at rest for aeons But the people never are They exploit themselves all day long And keep on beneath the stars We've been taught a million lessons Which demanded every price Yet we keep on going further As if we had a place to hide Hear the pumping heart of darkness Feel the savage call inside Mankind's living in a flicker Who can say which way's the right

I see the crystal raindrops fall And the beauty of it all Is when the sun comes shining through To make those rainbows in my mind When I think of you sometime And I wanna spend some time with you Just the two of us We can make it if we try Just the two of us (Just the two of us) Just the two of us Building castles in the sky Just the two of us You and I We look for love, no time for tears Wasted water's all that is And it don't make no flowers grow Good things might come to those who wait Not for those who wait too late We gotta go for all we know Just the two of us We can make it if we try Just the two of us (Just the two of us) Just the two of us Building them castles in the sky Just the two of us You and I

Freedom Deep 02:41
You show me the way Give away The truth I'm looking for I need a new way Out of here The door Is opening Freedom take me deeper Freedom take me deeper All the blue days Gone astray The clouds Are giving in Freedom take me deeper Freedom take me deeper Losing my fear Suddenly The way Has come to me Freedom take me deeper Freedom take me deeper

Mad World 04:57
All around me are familiar faces Worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere And their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow No tomorrow, no tomorrow And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take When people run in circles it's a very very Mad world, mad world Children waiting for the day, they feel good Happy birthday, happy birthday Made to feel the way that every child should Sit and listen, sit and listen Went to school and I was very nervous No one knew me, no one knew me Hello teacher, tell me what's my lesson Look right through me, look right through me And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take When people run in circles it's a very very Mad world, mad world

Come away with me in the night Come away with me And I will write you a song Come away with me on a bus Come away where they can't tempt us, with their lies And I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high So won't you try to come Come away with me and we'll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And I'll never stop loving you (Instrumental) And I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I'm safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me

One flight down There's a song on low And your mind just picked up on the sound Now you know that you're wrong Because it drifts like smoke And it's been there playing all along Now you know Now you know The reeds and brass have been weaving Leading into a single note In this place Where your arms unfold Here at last I see your ancient face Now you know Now you know The cadence rolls in broken Plays it over and then goes One flight down There's a song on low And it's been there playing all along Now you know Now you know

Nightshift 04:40
Marvin, he was a friend of mine And he could sing a song, his heart in every line Marvin, sang of the joy and pain, He opened up our minds and I still can hear him say Aw, talk to me, so you can see; what's going on Say you will, sing your songs, for-evermore, evermore Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the night shift I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the night shift Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift You found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift Jackie, hey, what you doing now? It seems like yesterday, when we were working out Jackie, you set the world on fire You came and gifted us; your love it lifted us, higher and higher Keep it up and we'll be there, at your side Oh, say you will, sing your songs, for-evermore, evermore, evermore Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the night shift I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the night shift Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the night shift I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the night shift Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night

Believe 05:18
I don't want to believe That it's over now I don't want to believe But I get round somehow I just want you to believe I give you all that you need I don't feel our love's over now Maybe I'm wrong – then I have to be strong But what we've done is not wrong I'm still in love with you You don't want to believe That we could touch the stars Now I'm on my knees And nothing is what it was I just want you to believe I give you all that you need I don't feel our love's over now Maybe I'm wrong – then I have to be strong But what we've done is not wrong I'm still in love with you INSTRUMENTAL I don't want to believe You're lieing in his bed I don't want to believe All the things you said I just want you to believe I give you all that you need I don't feel our love's over now Maybe I'm wrong – then I have to be strong But what we've done is not wrong I want you to believe I give you all that you need I don't feel our love's over now Maybe I'm wrong – I have to be strong But what we've done is not wrong I just want you to believe I give you all that you need I don't feel our love's over now Maybe I'm wrong – then I have to be strong But what we've done is not wrong I'm still in love with you I'm still in love with you

Salud 05:13
Here’s to you my good old friends You suffered and toiled throughout your lives While I was resting in my bed Waiting for the sun to shine Waiting for the sun to shine So raise your glasses, hold them high You can say good bye to sorrow and pain Sit down, relax. Take your time Tomorrow is another day Tomorrow is another day (Adlips) And the earth is flat and the moon is a cheese What you see is what you get And all you got to say is please It’s the only magic word you need It’s the only magic word you need Here’s to you my good old friends My stars, my earth, my rainbows end My life, my reason, my sun and moon My devils, my angels, professors and fools (Adlips) Thru darkness, ice and snow you came To find me sittin’ by the fireside I was cosy, I was warm Turning the water into wine Turning the water into wine So raise your glasses, hold them high You suffered and toiled throughout your lives While I was resting in my bed Waiting for the sun to shine Waiting for the sun to shine (Adlips) Waiting for the sun to shine Waiting for the sun to shine

Wise men say only fools rush in But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay? Would it be a sin? If I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too For I can't help falling in love with you

Oh My Heart 03:51
Living by my lowly creed. Every man has certain needs To this needs I must concede To this needs I must concede Oh my Heart… I’m a man cut from the know. Rarely do friends come and then go She was a girl soft, but estranged She was a girl soft, but estranged Oh my Heart… Yes I know, I know it’s hard But I just won’t start Will not take apart Just won’t start Will not take apart Oh my Heart Confusion is my middle name Ask me again – I tell you the same Persuaded by one sexy dame Persuaded by one sexy dame Oh my Heart…

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go I'm standin' here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breakin' It's early morn The taxi's waitin' He's blowin' his horn Already I'm so lonesome I could die So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go There's so many times I've let you down So many times I've played around I tell you now, they don't mean a thing Every place I go, I'll think of you Every song I sing, I'll sing for you When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go Now the time has come to leave you One more time Let me kiss you Then close your eyes And I'll be on my way Dream about the days to come When I won't have to leave alone About the times, I won't have to say Kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go 'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go But, I'm leavin' on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again Oh babe, I hate to go

Melville Camus an old Postman Brings a letter from my good friend He wants to see me again this life In his ocean Signed this by Fish named Napoleon Fish named Napoleon Call a taxi to Devonshire "That's a long way, a long way, Sir To the beaches, the gates of blue" The meeting place Where I meet you Fish named Napoleon Fish named Napoleon Follow me boy We drown down the Boulevard In this world's the world so far We go shopping in deep caves Under trouble's highest waves I see your fancy coral reef With eyes like child's so quite naive Fish named Napoleon Fish named Napoleon Bye bye Napoleon

Planet Earth 04:36
Neonlights are shining bright I'm looking for are place tonight A place to live in harmony Get out of this reality I will survive and be here on this Planet Earth I'll be alive on Planet Earth Won't be afraid here on Planet Earth Won't be enslaved on Planet Earth, on Planet Earth... We all have sold our dignity Is there a place where we can be My poor head's spinning like a reel How can I tell you what I feel I will survive and be here on this Planet Earth I'll be alive on Planet Earth Won't be afraid here on Planet Earth Won't be enslaved on Planet Earth, on Planet Earth... There is no point to understand Where it starts and where it ends TV-Station's telling lies Every day and every night I will survive and be here on this Planet Earth I'll be alive on Planet Earth Won't be afraid here on Planet Earth Won't be enslaved on Planet Earth, on Planet Earth...
