Emmeralde lyrics

turn away and the collar
because the blowing is dry
walk away to the harbor
before your ships will fly

slip away and the pillow
because it's falling of down
trot away and around
because your ships are found

somewhere over the water
next to a harbor
someone's eager to listen

someone to be in...

I did all that I should, well all that I could
but will I be clean
I did all that I should, well all that I could
but it isn't me

all my strength is dead and gone

slept as long I could, as long as I should
to find comfort here
slept as long I could, as long as I should
but I still have fear

all my strength is dead and gone...

black letter day
all the fun / joy / strength
...has gone away

I'd catch some stars for you
and just for you
I'd paint the grey sky blue
and just for you
so don't tell me you want the rain
from a cloudy sky
to wash away the pain
that I've given you again
I've always tried to find
what satisfies your mind
but I will never know
where you are to go
but I want you to know
do you want a golden ring
I would buy you anything.

I'd read some poems for you

winter came by my bedroom today
falling in rows and covering the lane
morning shone on my windows today
passing the time I slumber away
to kill all the day

stumbling up at one
and put the kettle on
but where's the coffee gone
in the afternoon
I put the TV on
but where's the drama gone
in the afternoon
and time is all that passes

someone came by my bedroom today

sick, tired and homeless
with no one here to sing for
tired of being weightless
for all these looking good boys

you can always say my attic has its charm
you can always say you did no major harm
you can always that summer had its charm
and that you did no major harm
oh, spare me if you please

sick, tired an sleepless
with no one else to shine for
sick of all my distress

such a foolish thing
what a way to be
i couldn't stay in here
and it's not right to leave
i couldn't tell you how
but all the things i feel
have their qualities

if you fall apart
fall into my arms
one uneasy morning
doesn't make me leave

such a simple thing
what a way to say
i couldn't help myself
for my foolish ways
you couldn't tell me how
but all the things you feel

hi, how are you i'm pretty fine
your eyes are red, well i am tired
please stay away from what is mine
blah blah blah blah blah blah
my, i never thought of seeing you here
i'm really glad to meet you darling
where did we lose it, will you call?

all we ever say
is blah blah blah blah blah
we feel safe
with blah blah blah blah blah

no one's hurt
no one's weird
so all we ever say

the night she died in the rented room
as the whole town was sleeping
she held her breath like a star in bloom
could burn down tomorrow

the summer breeze was caressing me
as I walked through the market
the golden light of a friend beside
had died out for good

now nothing can amaze me
as everything's behind me
no, nothing else can please me
since all I had has been set free

You've seen life through distorted eyes
You know you had to learn
The execution of your mind
You really had to turn
The race is run the book is read
The end begins to show
The truth is out, the lies are old
But you don't want to know

Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies

I want to be alone for a while
I want earth to breathe to me
I want the waves to grow loud
I want the sun to bleed down

see the waves go down
see the moon alone
see the world unshown
I raise my head and whisper

rise and shine
rise and shine my sister

I want to see the wounded moon
I want the sea to break through
I want it all to be gone tomorrow
so I've come too say goodbye...

I am afraid of you now
Now that you left me
Nothing I can say
No not now
Now that you left me
Now that you left me
Now that you left me

Just for how long
Did you know before you left me?
Nothing to do
It's up to you
Use it against me

Use it against me
Now that you left me

You are ahead of me now
Because you left me
Words that I said
All yours now
Use it against me

it's closing time, and a well-known fact
is that life is very short
it's closing time says the band
and it seems that life is very short
the baker in town was fat as a cow
at the end of the day he ate all remains
the baker in town was murdered one day
an order was left of 200 pies
we've all got some vice
after closing time

so this is it!
the carnival is now heading for a new town

after all you were perfectly right
but I'm scaring close to insanity
and on a night like this
nothing stays the same
nothing looks the same

after all you were perfectly right
though our relation just split me in two
and on a night like this
pieces fall apart
visions fall apart

after all you were perfectly right
I have never been happy before
and on a night like this
you can hear the words

seems hard to understand
I think no one can
not anyone I know
no, wait I think I know
one who does
at least that's what he says

and what I mean is what I say
but I've got thoughts left anyway

seems hard to understand
I'm not sure myself
sure of what to think
I know I should trust myself
at least that's what he says

seems hard to understand
I think no one did
not anyone I knew

you don't want the sun to shine in
so you turn the curtains down
your eyes still don't show me a thing
and you don't feel it's sunny outside

you don't want no joy for a while
but you stay up late at night
it hurts you that she's still alive
so you'll raise flowerbeds inside

but she, she will not get bothered at all
she's just watching the water at fall

my dear, please see my dear
how we invented the fear
inside that space
no one could interfere
my dear, please see my dear
how we invented the tears
inside that space
no one could interfere

the night she died in the rented room
as the whole town was sleeping
she held her breath like a star in bloom
could burn down tomorrow

the summer breeze was caressing me
as I walked through the market
the golden light of a friend beside
had died out for good

now nothing can amaze me
as everything's behind me
no, nothing else can please me
since all I had has been set free

Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are crazy

They were asking if you were around
How you was, and where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town

You know the chick that used to dance a lot

when the cats & dogs are falling
i'm recalling you
you said i'd be bored today
and i don't know what i want to do
wise eyes telling twice
dance like penguins on my table
ain't my kind of joy
on every friday night

i'm just wistling on a song...
songs we wrote together

when my world is far too evil
i'm recalling you
things are hard to understand
there's little that i really know

My dad, the best dad that I've had
don't care about nothing
he's not even working
he's not only my dad
the best friend that I've had
don't think he's a mad dad

His dad, is sleeping with boots on
it makes me start wonder
cause there is no thunder
according to my dad
don't think he's a mad dad
it's only some tigers he has got in our shed

My dad, the best dad that I've had

Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head
Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead
Your life style to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all
You fooled all the people with magic
You waited on Satan's call
Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure
Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport
Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this Earth
Conceived in the eye of a secret

Oh, come crush me now
Don't leave
No one has won this war
This time
No, don't sleep tonight
I'm hurt and ready for fire
Don't leave me up
Alarmed and ready to die

Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on

Please, I'm almost done
Don't you treat
I've loaded my gun
With love, with...
Hear the dust roll over the floor
Why must you sleep?

he's lonely
sitting by the mirror
awakened by the horses
in circles
running in the circus
his red nose
looking damaged in the mirror
cause no one has replaced it
he's dressed now
ready to make fun of...

he loves sundays
and every place
where his circus stays

he's lonely
he's sitting by the mirror
still broken
undressed now
ready for a new town

he loves sundays

plain parade
well, where is all the profit laid?
plain parade
well, maybe we have lost our way
some are lone
sickly running from
something so wrong
and nowhere to belong

plain parade
well, when will i be repaid
plain parade
i might join you on another day

some are lone
sickly running from
something so wrong
and nowhere to belong

all you've given me is sadness

i can't get out of bed
can't get my dreams out
of my sleepy head
i open up my eyes
and wonder where you are
but soon i realise
that you're not real
and i am

in between of day and dream
life and death, a lazy stream
in between of day and dream
hello, goodbye
you nasty sunny beam

i try to seal my mind
and get back to where you were
you were that perfect kind
you drove me crazy

he showed me around
to be found alone
he cleaned his room
on his own to be known
so, i figured out
with no doubt
what he was about
in his room
on his own

you say "don't worry"
but did you ever see us
what he does, bothers
you say "don't worry"
but did you ever see us
what he does, bothers

he showed me around
to be found alone
he cleaned his room
on his own to be known
