We're talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, OK

Take on me, take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But that's me stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK.
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry

Take on me, take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

(Pal Waaktaar)

It wasn't rain that washed away
Rinsed out the colours of your eyes
Putting the gun down on the bedside table
I must have realized...

It wasn't the rain that made no difference
And I could have sworn it wasn't me
Yet I did it all so coldly, almost slowly
Plain for all to see

Oh come on
please now, talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful

"Night I left the city,
I dreamt of a wolf..."

He came from where the winds are cold
And truth is seen through keyholes
...strange longings never sleep
Now he's come where no hearts beat

Cry wolf
Time to worry
Cry wolf
Time to worry now

You can start, but you cannot stop
You give in, but you can't give up
You can tell all your desperate jokes
To a world that puts your
Love on hold

Cry wolf

(Mags/Pal Waaktaar)

We sit and watch umbrellas fly
I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry
I hear myself say,
My boat's leaving now
...so we shake hands and cry
Now I must wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye
Wave goodbye

You know
I don't want to cry again
I don't want to cry again
Don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to cry again
I don't want to run away

We sit and watch umbrellas fly

I'm trying to keep my newspaper dry.
I hear myself say: My boat's leaving now

so we shake hands and cry.
Now I must wave good-bye
wave good-bye
wave good-bye

Wave good-bye
wave good-bye
wave good-bye.

You know: I don't want to cry again
I don't want to cry again

I don't want to say good-bye
I don't want to cry again

I don't want to run away

I'll never let you see
The way my broken heart is hurting me
I've got my pride and I know how to hide
All my sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain

If I wait for stormy skies
You won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you so
Though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain

Raindrops falling from heaven
Could never take away my misery

Walked around no one around
You were the one who taught me
better
This old town brings me down
You were the one who told me
You've got to

Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Gonna move to Memphis and follow you
Trace that highway
Down to your doorway
Gonna move to Memphis and be with you

On the day you walked away
I was the one who said
You'd better stick around stay in town

It's time we said goodbye
Time now to decide
O' don't you feel so small
Dark is the night for all

It's time we moved out West
This time will be the best
And when the evenings fall
Dark is the night for all

It's time...yeah, to break free
It's time to pull away
For you and for me

It's time...yeah, to break free
We need to celebrate the mystery

It's time we said goodbye
Time for you and I

When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were undecided
I believed
It's alright, tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I

When you were filled with longing
I belonged
When you were weak from trying
I was strong
But it's alright, tonight
On a deep blue mountain high

The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
You and I

Her skin is like velvet
Her face cut from stone
Her eyes when she's smiling
Will never reach home
But hear how she sings

Her touch would be tender
Her lips would be warm
But when we're together
I'm always alone
But hear how she sings
But hear how she sings
Hear how she sings

Her skin is like velvet
So I went to her home
Her place like a palace
With things you can't own
Her skin is like velvet

Hold me tight
This is a lonely night
And I've hurt you baby
Because you are my light
Make me strong
Just like you make me weak
When your hands reach out for me
Even in your sleep

I'll soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It won't be long now
Forever not yours

Memories they keep coming through
The good ones hurt more
Than the bad ones do
The days were high
And the nights were deep
