Castaway
02:41
|
|||
Follow me to the ocean; come with me to the coast
Tides pull me towards where I can be myself the most
Escape from this town, to find a new home
Seems to me, where ever I go
Where I grew is up is where I should have stayed,
to not feel like a castaway?
Life’s too short to be rushing
(the clock spins as we speak)
From one place to the other
In search of some inner peace
Escape from this town, to find a new home
Seems to me, where ever I go
Where I grew is up is where I should have stayed,
Will I be moving back some day?
Is this where should have stayed?
Would I feel like a castaway?

Come Tomorrow
03:40
|

On a day like this
Everything seems to go wrong
But I know it will not last for long
I’m not sure quite how
There must be something that you do
‘Cause I know luck will turn if I’m with you
I’ve thrown coins in the fountain
Gathered hope like stones and leaves
Nothing could be more certain
I’m inclined to believe
Come tomorrow, we will cherish what it brings
Come tomorrow and today won’t mean a thing
It’s hard to just ignore
what my broken mirror shows
but I’ll follow you where luck-winds blow
I’ve thrown coins in the fountain
Gathered hope like leaves and stones
Of this I am certain
Life is not bad to the bone
Come tomorrow, we will cherish what it brings
Come tomorrow and today won’t mean a thing
You seem to take life in your stride
Well, living is never easy
On that notion I can nothing but agree
so what’s your summary
Just stay with me

Life As A Father
03:37
|
|||
It feels like I don't know a thing
About what's coming
And I wonder
Will I be any good at this
just because it was our biggest wish
to have her
My life as a father
is just about to start
I promise to spoil her,
know that won't be hard
One thing I do know is that she
will be as loved as anyone can be
And I’m certain
Life will be at its very best
When I can have her lying on my chest
and adore her
Into this world any day now
I’m sure we’ll manage this somehow
‘cause we love her
Soon everything will be different
a change for the better, she’s heaven sent
and we’re here for her

The Heart Is A Muscle
04:01
|
|||
I know, I know, I know, I know
Things will get better
Though it was hard to let her go
And you will not forget her
In a month or less
You’ll feel so much stronger
Will be wondering what you did with her
As the beat from your chest
Tells of all you can conquer
As blood streams through your veins
Flows without hassle
You know you can take this pain
'Cause after all
The heart is a muscle
I know it may seem like it but
It’s not the world’s end
To part from someone who was not
A suitable girlfriend
In a month or less
You’ll feel so much stronger
Will be wondering what you did with her
As the beat from your chest
Tells of all you can conquer
As blood streams through your veins
Flows without hassle
You know you can take this pain
'Cause after all
The heart is a muscle

It Takes Two
02:34
|
|||
I have sent you invitations
And waited patiently
For replies
But you give no confirmation
So I've decided
To no longer try
Everyone seems to be on your side
I can see why you’re so loved and liked
I only wish the best for you
But to keep up a friendship, it takes two
There’s been no communication
No conversation
For quite some time
I see no cause, no explanation
But our relation
Has petered out
I will always be on your side
And I hope your projects turn out fine
I only wish the best for you
But to keep up a friendship, it takes two
I only wish the best for you
I only wish the best for you

Keeper Of Secrets
03:54
|
|||
My tongue is tied
my mouth is sealed
so I will not let this slip
Confide in me
‘cause privacy
is what I seem to do best
No one will tell
your secret will be kept
and there’ll be no traces left
Do trust in me
I’ll keep your secret well
And no one will ever tell
Let me into
your darkest room
Where no one has been before
No one will tell
your secret will be kept
and there’ll be no traces left
Do trust in me
I’ll keep your secret well
And no one will ever tell

You Make It Easy
03:51
|
|||
When the conversation stalls
and it does when I small talk
Then I know whom I should call
to loosen up the dialogue
Words gather in my mind
that I rarely speak out loud
It seems that I am struggling to find
The right time to open my mouth
When I don't know what to say
you make it easy
When the words don’t come my way
you make it easy
I always try to impress
Think of what to say next
But not when I’m with you
Then each comment will flow
naturally, 'cause I know
you so well
Words gather in my mind
that I rarely speak out loud
It seems that I am struggling to find
The right time to open my mouth
But not with you
‘cause you make it easy
When I’m with you
you make it easy
It’s easier with you

Yesterday, when I was kid
I thought of telling, but I never did
Come today, and I am glad
Yesterday, when I was young
I wrote you songs that were never sung
Come today, they make me sad
I don't tend to revisit the past
but when I do
I no longer see anything
I no longer see anything in you
Yesterday, when I was child
hopes were high, still I never tried
Come today, that hasn't changed
I seldom look back on the past
but if I do
I no longer see anything,
I no longer see anything in you
My heart keeps trembling
It's set on someone new
I do no longer
see anything in you
I don't tend to revisit the past
but when I do
I no longer see anything
I no longer see anything
I no longer see anything in you
My heart keeps trembling
It's set on someone new
I do no longer
see anything in you

Tears All Over Town
03:58
|
|||
It had come so far, we all knew
Every goodbye could be the last
You had fought for years, but were getting worse so fast
In the photos from my wedding
You seemed so vibrant and alive
When I look at them, my tears mix with a smile
I knew this was coming, but I was not at all prepared
This seems so unreal, so unfair
I thought you’d stay here forever, always be around
Now all I want is to spread my tears all over town
I will cling to every memory
That is not so hard to do
Everywhere something’s reminding me of you
We will take care of our father
He’s the kindest man we know
It just seems so cruel he had to let you go
I knew this was coming, but I was not at all prepared
This seems so unreal, so unfair
I thought you’d stay here forever, always be around
Now all I want is to spread my tears all over town
