And you know it’s time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light in the distance

And you hunger for the time
Time to heal, desire, time
And your earth moves beneath
Your own dream landscape

Oh, oh, oh…
On borderland we run…

I’ll be there
I’ll be there…
Tonight
A high road
A high road out from here

The city walls are all pulled down
The dust, a smoke screen all around
See faces ploughed like fields that once
Gave no resistance

And we live by the side of the road
On the side of a hill
As the valley explode
Dislocated, suffocated
The land grows weary of its own

Oh, oh, oh…on borderland we run…
And still we run
We run and don’t look back
I’ll be there
I’ll be there
Tonight
Tonight

I’ll be there tonight…I believe
I’ll be there…somehow
I’ll be there…tonight
Tonight

The wind will crack in winter time
This bomb-blast lightning waltz
No spoken words, just a scream…

Tonight we’ll build a bridge
Across the sea and land
See the sky, the burning rain
She will die and live again
Tonight

And your heart beats so slow
Through the rain and fallen snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light’s in the distance

Oh don’t sorrow, no don’t weep
For tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home

From where I stand
I can see thrugh you
From where you’re sitting, pretty one
I know it got to you

I see the stars in your eyes
You want the truth, but you need the lies
Like Judy Garland, like Valentino
You give your life for rock n’ roll
Uh huh

Stand, we’re on a landslide of love
You got everything you want
But what you need you give away

For primitive love
And a ride on the mistery train
A primitive love
A room at the Heart…
The Heartbreak Hotel
A room at the Heartbreak
Heartbreak Hotel
A room at the Heartbreak
Heartbreak Hotel

You say it’s love, it’s not the money
You let them suck your life out like honey
Turning tricks, you’re on the street
Selling your kisses so bittersweet



A primitive love
A and a ride on the mistery train
A primitive love
A room at the Heart
The Heartbreak Hotel

A room at the Heartbreak, the Heartbreak,
The Heartbreak Hotel, Hotel
[Repeat until end]

Those cars
On you
So small
Down there
From here
So high
We drift
We fly
Twilight breaks through
A different kind of blue
More lights
Blue signs
All gold
All new
So small
So high
Down there
Tonight
With twilight breaking through
It’s a different kind of blue
Twilight breaking through
It’s a different kind of blue

I waited patiently for the Lord
He inclined and heard my cry
He brought me up out of the pit
Out of the miry clay

I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song

How long to sing this song
How long to sing this song
How long…how long…how long…
How long…to sing this song

He set my feet upon a rock
And made my footsteps firm
Many will see
Many will see and fear

I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song

How long to sing this song
How long to sing this song
How long…how long…how long…
How long…to sing this song

It’s cold outside
It gets so hot in here
And the boys and girls collide
To The music in my ear


Hear the children crying
And I know it’s time to go
I hear the children crying
Take me home


A painted face
And I know we haven’t long
We thought that we had the answers
It was the questions we had wrong


Hear the children crying
And I know it’s time to go
I hear the children crying
Take me home


Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song


La lah la lah…La lah la lah…La lah lah…
[Repeat 4x]


Sad song, sad song
Sad song, sad song


Call out your name
Call out in shame
Call out your name
Call out
You better call out
Call, call, call out

And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring…
And love is not the easy thing…
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can’t leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it’s a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can?t steal it
No they can?t even feel it
Walk on, walk on…
Stay safe tonight

You’re packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed to be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly for freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you’ve got they can’t deny it
Can?t sell it, can?t buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Home… hard to know what it is if you?ve never had one
Home… I can?t say where it is but I know I’m going home
That’s where the hurt is

I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Leave it behind
You’ve got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you steal
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you speak
All you dress up
All that you scheme…

Jesus
Jesus help me
I`m alone in this world
And a fucked up world it is too
Tell me
Tell me the story
The one about eternity
And the way it`s all gonna be
Wake up
Wake up dead man
Wake up
Wake up dead man

Jesus
I`m waiting here boss
I know you`re looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren`t free
Your Father
He made the world in seven
He`s in charge of heaven
Will you put a word in for me

Wake up
Wake up dead man
Wake up
Wake up dead man

Listen to your words
They`ll tell you what to do
Listen over the rhythm that`s confusing you
Listen to the reed in the saxophone
Listen over the hum of the radio
Listen over the sounds of blades in rotation
Listen through the traffic and circulation
Listen as hope and peace try to rhyme
Listen over marching bands playing out their time

Wake up
Wake up dead man
Wake up
Wake up dead man

Jesus
Were you just around the corner?
Did you think to try and warn her?
Or are you working on something new?
If there`s and order
In all of this disorder
Is it like a tape recorder?
Can we rewind it just once more

Wake up
Wake up dead man
Wake up
Wake up dead man

Oh, oh my love
Oh my darling
I’ve hungered for your touch
A long and lonely time


And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine


I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me


Lonely rivers flow
To the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea


Lonely rivers sigh
Wait for me, wait for me
I’ll be coming home
Wait for me


Oh, oh my love
Oh my darling
I’ve hungered for your touch
A long and lonely time


And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine


I need your love
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me (it to me)
God speed your love to me
(I need your love)
[Repeat until end]

I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars
And they’re all painted black
With flowers and my love
Both never to come back
I see them turn their heads
Quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens every day

I look inside my self
See my heart is back
I see my red door
And I want it painted black
Maybe then I’ll fade away
And not have to face the facts
It’s not easy facing up
When your whole world is black

No more will my green sea
Go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee
This thing happening to you.
If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun,
My love will laugh with me
Before the morning comes

(Wanna see…)

You’re a precious stone
You’re out on your own
You know everyone in the world
But you feel alone
Daddy won’t let you weep
Daddy won’t let you ache
Daddy gives you as much as you can take
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy’s gonna pay for your crashed car

A little uptight
You’re a baby’s fist
Butterfly kisses up and down your wrist
When you see daddy coming
You’re licking your lip
Nails bitten down to the quick
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy’s gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy’s gonna pay for your crashed car

You’ve got a head full of traffic
You’re a siren’s song
You cry for mama
And daddy’s right along
He gives you the keys to a flamin’ car
Daddy’s with you wherever you are
Daddy’s a comfort
Daddy’s your best friend
Daddy’ll hold your hand right up to the end
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy’s gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy’s gonna pay for your crashed car

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday’s
alright…
