Lyrics

a picture on the wall     that i can’t throw away     is the only thing you left behind     that reminds me of you     a picture on the wall     that holds me under your sway     is the only thing that keeps me sane     in a world without you. since you’ve been gone i have been waiting     it seems like my life has gone quiet without you     like all the charades we had been waiving     my old desires wilted and died without you. now i’m really sure you never loved me     and even if i found someone who loved me for what i am     that picture on the wall     that i can’t throw away     it will chase away my sweetest thoughts     and drown my heart in you. a picture on the wall     that i can’t throw away     is the only thing that keeps me sane     in a world without you.

Lyrics

oh brother, oh brother     where are we gonna sleep?     oh brother, oh brother     the night is long and mean     my sleeping bag is rolled open under the stars. oh brother, oh brother     what will the morning bring?     oh brother, oh brother     what are we gonna eat?     my pockets are empty     we are in need. oh brother, oh brother     we’re walking night and day     oh brother, oh brother     it’s such a long long way     my feet are wounded and my boots are killing me     my heart is empty and “tomorrow” is just a dream. oh brother, oh brother     how comes we are still here?     oh brother, oh brother     when are we gonna leave?     the night train’s the only way to get out of here     we’ll jump on one tonight and we’ll be free.

Lyrics

like the waves of the ocean keep returning to the shore     caressing the golden sand in the starless night once more     so my thoughts return to you     kissing your lips     before the dawn. that’s when i feel that magic     blooming in my lungs     something that is too small for words     and too big to understand     that’s when i can live for real     and open my eyes once again. the world implodes in your heart     in the soft sound of a whisper     always taking advantage of me     of my pointless defense     when those subtle sounds fill your silence       echoing near me just like a laughter     i know i will never let you go. the afternoons flow away so slowly     almost secretly     in silence     maybe afraid that your sighs could force me to stay     but when darkness starts singing again     and your heart finds peace in its silence     i know i will never let you go.

Lyrics

she entered the room     all eyes turned to her     the woman of my dreams     came up to me and said:     “hey, baby     are you up for a little adventure tonight?”     i’m new in town and maybe     my car just outside is waiting     longing for someone like you. i choked on my beer     the bar went all dead     and the people around me     their whispering said:     “hey, man     you’d be a fool to let that beauty leave!     she’s new in town and she said     her car outside is waiting     brother how i wish i was you!” chances like this only happen in a dream     maybe she’s just having a cheap laugh at me     and even though everybody says go     i’m not so sure myself, no.

Lyrics

i have a real woman     but i’m still unsatisfied     i have a real woman     but i’m still unsatisfied     i have no right to complain really     still i can’t find my peace of mine. she gives me her love – listen!     still i can’t treat her right     she gives me her sweet sweet love     still i can’t treat her right     i guess i’m longing for that danger     that you hide in your blue eyes. why don’t we meet tomorrow     in that secret place of mine?     i say, why don’t we meet tomorrow     and have some merry time?     i’m always free for you baby     you can call me any time. i have a real woman     but i’m still unsatisfied     i have a real woman     but i’m still unsatisfied     i guess i’m longing for that danger     that you hide in your blue eyes.
