will I see a smile if you get her kiss
Is that her lips you're dreaming on
you go and find someone to miss
Maybe I'll miss you when you're gone
I swear you never lost your bright
just like a rainbow of black and white
I know I never said my name
yet she called and I always came
I'm not the kind of guy to force it
I'm not looking for a fight
god only knows that she was worth it
I'll keep myself well out of sight
she was wild and she was stunning
she used to call and I came running
take a shot whiskey and a stout
and you'll find just what I'm all about
I may never dare
I'll forever swear
that it's the last time she calls and I am there
we were together in my head
I was here and she was there
I gave her every song I had
but she didn't seem to care
I wasn't trying to outbrave you
nobody told me how to save you
take a sorry and a doubt
you'll see just what I'm all about
I never said I can
swearing there and then
that if she calls I won't be there again
I may never dare
I'll forever swear
that it's the last time she calls and I am there
in my back seat I will try
And hope my best not to cry
It’s a long way to stay strong, I will try
In my back seat I’ll pretend
It’s not a countdown to an end
And if by your shouts I see I can’t be deaf, I’ll pretend
In my back seat I will hold
Though you make it a long tiring road
While I wish to get lose from this load I will hold
In my back seat I will sing
Just to evade the violence you bring
Would you please turn that radio on, turn it on
In my back seat I can lie
And tell myself you’re willing to try
You’re going to let my soul die, will you try?
In my back seat I can dream
We’re a family like we’ve never been
And if by your fights I’ll return to this cold, I will hold
Mind of stone, I just sat there and wished I‘d be gone is that radio on?
I’ll sing if you fight, I’m telling you no one is right
I’m telling that I, I will sing louder tonight
I will hold
she don't play by the rules
that's just the way her long hair moves
something that no one has
smiles and says you can call me jaz
found a song to bear
he runs his fingers through her hair
as if he's saying sorry
for all the times he wasn't there
when jasmin runs
she knows no brakes
thinking maybe that's what it takes
to keep my heart from braking more
ain't doing better that I did before
she said isn't that what hearts are for
blue blue skies and big white spots
green green grass and passing thoughts
she's throwing stones into the lake
how many hearts more will she brake
take a shot out of range
it's too late for me to change
and after all this time I'm sure
there's no place for princes anymore
when jasmin runs
on an endless flame
I try to make a life out of my name
to keep my heart and close that door
but now I miss her even more
I guess that just what hearts are for
excuse me sir I'd like to change my point of view
my way of life and my dreams to
where no one buys and no one sells
nobody's wishing for nobody else
I always hurt yet I never hit
I always search and swear this is it
they want to run yet to stay around
they wish to fly but never leave the ground
the girls they do explain
and all the boys always understand
some chose to follow their own brains
while others chose their own two hands
just to get lost
down and getting beat
following my feet
to be the first
and ending last again
just following my pain
I saw the boys of rage in racing cars sick of aging, chasing stars
with flaming chests that never dies we were never blessed we follow our own lies
to be like men who pay the cost, to say we can, then keep our fingers crossed
trading friends up for a dream or at least someone to be like him
if she's the beauty and I'm the beast
can love exist?
just to get lost
down and getting beat
just following my feet
to be the first
and ending last again
just following my pain
then it goes again to the same old end, I will lose some friends but I wont pretend
she made me feel that I will never heal, just to find some holes so she can seal
then from each scar I will make a song where I went far but I went wrong
to find a hero that I can track to say someday I will come back
I'm standing in a special place
where melodies don't leave a trace
and thoughts of going wrong form into a song
about how soon it was to say
that she was the cure as she was the pain
and how late it was to promise
to never write about this girl again
soon to say that she reminds me
Jasmine on a magic rug
too late to put behind me
the funny way she gives a hug
it was too late to win her heart it seemed that she already gave it
but soon enough to keep my own, to hold and maybe save it
I never thought that if we fight I'll find today I cannot write
that when she kisses me again I'm finding just the right refrain
I never thought I'd love the way there's nothing that her eyes will miss
I never thought it would be easy but I hoped it would be easier than this
it's way too soon to go and follow little beats inside my chest
and yet too late to listen now to those who know me best
it was too soon to say I loved her so I went on and lived
until it was too late to say that she was just the thing I need
I never thought that if we fight I'll find today I cannot write
that when she kisses me again I'm finding just the right refrain
I never thought I'd love the way there's nothing that her eyes will miss
I never thought it would be easy but I hoped it would be easier than this
A glimpse and than she's gone, I'm searching words all through the night
and everytime I'm done she keeps insisting I don't see her right
she makes me smile without a sweat yet I got more than just one fear
we all play the cards we get and I'm afraid I found a song that she won't like to hear
I've never been a star to trace
he said with an endearing grace
when ever I saw I'm feeling glad
I thought it's time for me for feeling bad
they say it only needs just one touch
so I don't like speaking much
it's because I choose to keep and wait
that I always end up running late
I've been told that you have to bleed
so that one day you can say you lived
they said no stars were made for chases
they're only leaving traces
it's because I hope for things to change
that I find myself out of range
for just a chance that she will see me then
I'm getting up and try again
I've been told that you have to bleed
so that one day you can say you lived
that I have no stars that I can chase
I have only stars to trace
it's because I believe that love exist
that I search it where it's expected least
for just the chance to make it worth my while
I try to end up with a big big smile
could I hear a man without a decent story
Of a sacrifice and struggling through his time?
Who came looking for the sound of secret glory
Of when a holy goal conceals the making of the crime
The lonely walks behind an endless reaching
Showed an entire different view from what it seemed,
Second thoughts chose a perfect time for teaching
just to find yourself speaking to your dream
Take me back, take me back
It was an empty road
Go back, go back
I’m growing old
Let me buy again what I have sold
He can change the words even if they once were spoken
To a tale of war with love on where it ends.
For the cheering is louder if your mind is broken
You made it on your own, enjoy the place you stand
She’ll always pray for wind against your movement,
It’s a fight between whatever she wants more
Her hopes and wills depends on given moments
Just to find yourself waiting at her door
Take me back, take me back
It was an empty road
Come back, come back
I’m growing old
Let me buy again what I have sold
I can always tell a lie
And hide the truth, it won’t be found
And I can make a foolproof story
But just not when she’s around
It’s not in how she knew me best
When all she needed was one stare
I may express like all the rest
But when she asked me I did swear
That I’ll never say I need you as the rivers need the rain
And I’ll never say I’ll hold hard enough you might feel pain
And I will not say I’ll love until the day the sun won’t shine
But will you hold me to it now Caroline
It’s not the way she left me speechless
When I always knew just what to say
It’s not in how I always reached less
If I didn’t see her everyday
I met so many men out there
That I thought like them I’d like to be
As long as I won’t find someone who will say
He wants to be like me
Because I had my share of Gin to keep that loss from being shown
They all had broken hearts and now I finally have my own
I’ll forever seek the one who drew between us that cold line
Though she doesn’t really mind my Caroline
Reflections slowly show with you I always got it wrong
I think I rather let it kill me instead of letting it make me strong
Every time I hear that song I’m asking what are we made of
I swear it’s only Music but it feels a lot like love
If all that waits ahead implies I’ll be ok somehow
I always gonna wonder what she’s doing now
she cried but I saw her smile
She took forever but I just gave a while
Wreath of flowers and a rare golden ring
An endless promise and this song to sing
With broken words that I never thought she had
I bought a truth but she sold a dream Instead
She’s feeling good when I feel bad
She displayed clouds somehow I got one shining sun
I thought it’s over but it seems it has never begun
I could be climbing back to turn it around
She won’t be smiling so let’s just work my way down
I never lied by turning failure into success
For a great beyond she said no but I heard yes
But I really tried to love her less
With broken words that I never thought she had
I bought a truth but she sold a dream Instead
She’s feeling good when I feel bad
silent streets surround me, cloudy skies in shades of grey
It’s like I’ve never hurt nobody yet I’m hiding everyday
They can say you’re not a tree, if you are lost go change your place
I’d be careful what you wish for cause I sure don’t leave a trace
Now if being so unsuited was all there was for us to find
Why I remember she was better than the girl I had in mind
We all did a lot of running yet we ended standing still
But me, I try unlike the rest to look exactly how I feel
He said I wonder if I like it when they’re asking where I am
Or I is it something in the way I lock the door
If after all this time we act like we don’t give a damn
It got to really seems that these are just the kind of days we’re looking for
There are so many winding roads out there that if you’ll ever ask I’ll walk
Although we spoke so many times, I know we never really talked
I was raised without a meaning but with a chance to never quit
I got a dream that’s always leading me, no matter how I hit
I swear I tried to find a way or either make one of my own
It’s hard when betting on a kid who feels regret
Now some were here to stay and some were lost when I have grown
After all this time it seems these are just the kind of songs I won’t forget
The eyes that saw my world relate to if I’ll sleep at night
Now please from all the things I did there must be one thing I did right
So I’ll keep my eyes on the horizon, don’t ask why I even bother
You all did a lot of looking yet nobody saw each other
He said I wonder if he knows he made he’s car his only bed
As if I’m sorry that I never had succeed
After all this time it seems there will be nothing else instead
So if these are all my feelings, then these will be the feelings that I’ll need
I wonder if they know he made he’s car his only bet
As if I’m sorry that I never had succeed
After all this time I know there will be nothing else I’ll get
So if these will be my feelings, then these will be the feelings that I’ll need
they say the best way to stay is to leave
but they've never heard about a man who lost his touch
and if the best way to hurt is to forgive
I guess I didn't want to hurt you all that much
I finally saw it and I owe you now my dear
but what's worth your best idea if you're not here
I keep on holding but I always fail to see
than now I'm as good as I'll ever be
I never saw no a flag upon the hill
aside a long walking sweat
and not the deep fear and the thrill
of just before you place your bet
from decisive to regretting, letting shame fill in the air
oh I tried it seems that I am only getting half way there
I heard the best way to be seen is to stay still
for if they won't love then my friend they never will
you do your best and only then we have a deal
you can laugh or cry I don't mind just as long as you can feel
I never saw no ending credits or a fading into black
round of applause where I bet it's like a hero's coming back
is my promise being kept or did I brake it, Did I dare?
cause ever since she left I only make it half way there
I'll never put flag upon the hill aside a long walking sweat
won't feel the deep fear and the thrill of when you win a bet
there's nothing I will switch for my own dreams to take me there
I've got more then I could wish for, so I don't really care
no ending credits or a fading into black
round of applause where I bet it's like a hero's coming back
it's mine I wouldn't trade it, I have no dreams that I can spare
at least I'll have my story where I made it half way there
