The Actor
He takes you out and takes you up
Cause he can show you so much
I go bed and tomorrow again
There's a lot of work to be done
He gives you gold and he'll promise you
The whole world will be yours
I just can tell you I love you so
Even though my odds are low
Chorus:
I'm not an actor I'm not a star
And I don't even have my own car
But I'm hoping so much that you'll stay
That you will love me anyway
The dirty games and the neonshows
This is the world he knows
Watching the stars satifies my soul
Thinking of him makes me feel so cold
The fancy cars and the restaurants
You're just so fond of the man
Sometimes I wonder if you are blind
Can't you see he's got dirt on his mind
Chorus
25 Minutes
After some time I've finally made up my mind
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done
I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
Chorus:
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
Against the wind I'm going home again
Wishing be back to the time when we were more than friends
Still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's cried while she's saying this
Chorus
Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said
I can still hear what she said
Paint My Love
From my youngest years
till this moment here
I've never seen
such a lovely queen
From the skies above
to the deepest love
I've never felt
crazy like this before
Paint my love
you should paint my love
it's the picture of a thousand sunsets
it's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby you should paint my love
Been around the world
then I met you girl
It's like comming home
to a place I've known
Paint my love
you should paint my love
it's the picture of a thousand sunsets
it's the freedom of a thousand doves
Baby you should paint my love
Since you came into my life
the days before all fade to black and white
Since you came into my life
Everything has changed
That's Why (You Go Away)
Baby, won't you tell me why there is sadness in your eyes?
I don't wanna say goodbye to you...
Love is one big illusion as you try to forget
But there is something left in my head...
You're the one who said it all, now you're the one to make it stop
And I'm the one who's feeling dust right now
Now you want me to forget every little thing you said
But there is something left in my head...
I won't forget the way you kissed
The feeling so strong will last for so long
But I'm not the man your heart is missing
That's why you go away, I know it...
You were never satisfied, no matter how I try
Now you want to say goodbye to me
Love is one big illusion as you try to forget
But there is something left in my head...
I won't forget the way you kissed
The feeling so strong will last for so long
But I'm not the man your heart is missing
That's why you go away, I know it... (Yes, I know it)
I'm sitting here right all alone in the middle of nowhere
Don't know which way to go...
There ain't so much to say now between us
There ain't so much for you...
There ain't so much for me anymore...
Breaking My Heart
I'm on the floor
Counting one minute more
No one to break the silence
Staring into the night
All alone but that's alright
It's the feeling deep inside I don't like
Chorus:
There is no excuse my friend
For breaking my heart
Breaking my heart again
This is where our journey ends
You breaking my heart again
Here in my bed
Counting the words you've said
They linger in the shadows
Coming home late at night
Drunk again but that's alright
It's the look in your eyes I don't like
Chorus:
There is no excuse my friend
For breaking my heart
Breaking my heart again
This is where our journey ends
You breaking my heart again
Sleeping Child
The Milky Way upon the heaven
Is twinkling just for you
And Mr. Moon he came by
To say goodnight to you
I'll sing for you I'll sing for mother
We're praying for the world
And for the people everywhere
Gonna show them all we care
Chorus :
Oh my sleeping child the world's so wild
But you've built your own paradise
That's one reason why I'll cover you sleeping child
If all the people around the world
They had a mind like yours
We'd have no fighting and no wars
There would be lasting peace on Earth
If all the kings and all the leaders
Could see you here this way
They would hold the Earth in their arms
They would learn to watch you play
Chorus
I'm gonna cover my sleeping child
Keep you away from the world so wild
