Love Makes You Free

If you were a bird I would sing you a song
If I was a cat I would climb all along
the houses and mountains to see you again
Where are you my friend
And I would sing with the birds and
hug all the trees
Just to see
how love made you free
Love makes you free
But if you were the sky so vast and so blue
I’d jump on your clouds with my sweet pink shoes
If you were a river so clean fast and pure
Then I’d be a fish swimming for sure
And I would sing with the birds and
hug all the trees
Just to see
how love made you free
Love makes you free
But if you were the sun
so hot and so bright
I would circle around you
to stay in your light
And I would sing with the birds and
hug all the trees
Just to see
how love made you free
Love makes you free

One Little Heart

One little heart
with one single beat
A heart all alone
Drumming for this world
It’s beating for your ears
It’s been beating for years
It’s been beating without fear
It’s bloody tears
One little heart
with one single beat
A heart all alone
Feeling incomplete
It’s beating for your ears
It’s been beating for years
It’s been beating without fear
It’s bloody tears
No it won’t give up on you
One little heart
with one single beat
A heart all alone
Drumming for this world
It’s beating for your ears
It’s been beating for years
It’s been beating without fear
It’s bloody tears

Once I saw a falling star
and it fell into my heart
It lightend up my darkest parts
and it warmed it with it’s spark
Shooting stars and fairy tales
They are the wind in my sails
I‘m feeling fireworks in here
Light up the atmosphere
and I can see so far
I‘m feeling fireworks in here
You are the wish my dear
I made upon this star
You can call me crazy
Call me any way you do
This star has fallen for you
Twice before I heard you say
how you love the milky way
Night and day I hope and pray
that this love is here to stay
Shooting stars and fairy tales
They are the wind in my sails
I‘m feeling fireworks in here
Light up the atmosphere
and I can see so far
I‘m feeling fireworks in here
You are the wish my dear
I made upon this star
You can call me crazy
Call me any way you do
This star has fallen for
You and I are a universe
You and I are a universe
You and I are a universe
You and I are a universe
I‘m feeling fireworks in here
Light up the atmosphere
and I can see so far
I‘m feeling fireworks in here
You are the wish my dear
I made upon this star
You can call me crazy
Call me any way you do
This star has fallen for you

After All

It‘s got to be
It‘s got to be this moment
It‘s got to be
It‘s got to be now
It‘s got to be you
It‘s got to be
It‘s got to be forever
It‘s got to be
It‘s got to be tonight
It‘s got to be you
It‘s your hands that make me feel warm in the cold
Just one touch and I‘m out of control
After all that we‘ve been through
After all the things you do
After all those nights I‘d still come for you
Until the sun runs out
Until this town burns down
You may run away but I‘d still find you
There‘s got to be
There‘s got to be a reason
There‘s got to be
There‘s got to be a way
For me and for you
It‘s your smile that keeps me alive all day long
And your voice is my favorite song
After all that we‘ve been through
After all the things you do
After all those nights I‘d still come for you
Until the sun runs out
Until this town burns down
You may run away but I‘d still find you
You are meant to be
Meant to be forever
You are meant to be
Meant to be tonight
It was meant to be you
After all that we‘ve been through
After all the things you do
After all those nights I‘d still come for you
Until the sun runs out
Until this town burns down
You may run away but I‘d still find you
I wish it was you

Let Me Borrow Your Shoes
02:58
|
|||
|
It’s not about the color of your skin
It’s not about the places that you’ve been
It’s not about the jewellery that you wear
It’s not about the way you curse and swear
It’s all about the secrets in your heart
It’s all about the story from the start
It’s all about the dreams you dare to dream
I wanna hear it all from A to Z
Let me borrow your shoes to walk a mile or two
I wanna know how it feels to be you
To be you
It’s not about the bad mistakes we make
It’s more about a little give and take
It’s not about the way you say your prayers
It’s more about the moments that we share
It’s not about the headlines that we read
It’s more about the stories in between
It’s not about the filters that we use
It’s all about the things that make you you
Let me borrow your shoes to walk a mile or two
I wanna know how it feels to be you
To be you
Walk with me for a little while
At least let’s try
Before we say goodbye
Let me borrow your shoes to walk a mile or two
I wanna know how it feels to be you
To be you

It Will Never Rain Roses

I have a garden of my own
You may think it’s overgrown
How many flowers would you guess
It’s a little wilderness
But now my beloved is gone
to the beds of spices
To feed in the gardens
and to be where the light is
And it will never rain roses
They are stuck here in the ground
Stroking our noses
without making a sound
My big garden full of flowers
is a garden full of hopes
And in the midst of all these roses
dreams can freely grow
But now my beloved is gone
to the beds of spices
To feed in the gardens
and to be where the light is
And it will never rain roses
They are stuck here in the ground
Stroking our noses
without making a sound
All the cities would be red and white
and every mouth would smile so bright
All the cities would be red and white
and every mouth would smile so bright
But It will never rain roses
They are stuck here in the ground
Stroking our noses
without making a sound
And it will never rain roses
They are stuck here in the ground
Stroking our noses
without making a sound
There’s no sound

Love You to the Bone
03:09
|

I can’t promise there’ll be sunshine everyday
And I know that there are stupid things I say
I can’t promise you palaces of gold
But still I love you more than you will ever know
I can’t promise you the ‘never growing old’
Can’t promise we’ll be always on a roll
Plenty times we’re gonna disagree
And you’ll get mad . . . at me
But . . .
I surrender my heart to you
Never thought that’s something I could do
My arms will always be your home
‘Cause I love you - to the bone
Yes, I love you - to the bone
Can’t promise there’ll be laughter every day
Can’t promise you life won’t get in the way
Most times - I will be to blame
But I’ll love you . . . just the same
I surrender my heart to you
Never thought that’s something I could do
My arms will always be your home
‘Cause I love you - to the bone
Yes, I love you - to the bone

Creep
05:07
|

|
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so very special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so very special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
She's running out the door
She's running
She run, run, run, run
Run
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so very special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here

Mrs. Greenbird Cologne, Germany
