nd the perfect match
Trying hard to stay right in my track

I can't relax cause I haven't done a thing
I can't do a thing, cause I just can't relax

Chorus

Grow our corn and plant our trees by hand
Let me be your private superman


2. Mother


When you're down
Nothing shows
Just somehow
She already knows
Magic bounds
Holding tight
Gentle sounds
Taking your side

Mother - she would know
Mother - 's clearing the smoke
Mother - She's a star
Mother - That's what you are

When you're down
She is close
Like the thorn
Protecting the rose

Good advice
Based on love
Helps you rise
When things getting rough

Don't forget
once you part
it's her blood
that's running your heart

When you're out
on your own
save the bridge
that's guiding you home


3. Tears


Always knew
Who I am
Thought you could
change a man
Security
Not for me
Said and done
Another run

Illusions are gone
Tears on the run
Can't throw a stone
and say should have known

Physical
Dependency
Cannot cure
Misery

What I've said
What I've done
Been all right
Been all wrong


4. Didn't Understand


I stood outside your door
remembering times before
I walked your town at night
letting go and cried
(Chorus):
I didn't understand
It didn't make no sense
true love that's what is was
I've never changed my course

I hung to my dream
nothing's what it seemed
I wished you knew I'm here
to help me wipe my tears

Chorus

It ain't no easy walk
you needed much support
I drove a million miles
to catch another smile

Chorus
Chorus-out:
I know you felt the same
You rather live in pain


5. Forever


So many faces, I've kissed before
Hope and illusion, I fed and ignored
Constantly hunting, craving the new
I've caused so much pain, a sad thing to do
39 seasons it took me to know
'til I figured out, which way I should go
Knowing the way, it sure ain't enough
But having found you, I've changed so much

Rather later, then never at all
I drop my defenses, catch my fall
I'm praying to God, that you're the one
The perfect match, my fear is gone

Nothing else matters, I'll give up control
The time I've wasted, If only I had known
Here I surrender, take my heart
Forever with you, in peace and love

(Chorus:)
A diamond I have found
So innocent and true
An everlasting love
Forever me and you

As simple it may sound
I'm so in love with you
My heart is crying out
Forever me and you


6. Need A Free Mind


I've tried to see the good
I gave it all I could
it didn't work my love
not how it should
compromising love
the sadness of your touch
the signs are all so clear
I've had enough

need a free mind
not a lover like you
independent but mine - ooh

(Chorus:)
holding out, waiting for - someone
conquering my heart
nothing's clear, when you're near
like a shadow in the dark

I'm dragging guilt behind
behaving so unkind
it's bringing out the bad
from deep inside

I'm sure not blaming you
nothing you could do
life can take a turn
and often burns


7. America


Long ago - across the sea
German heart - that was me
took a plane - came to see
Young at heart - twentythree
Got a chance - took it on
Wrote a song - called "Get it on"
Got a band - loud and proud
Wrote a smash - just don't know how

(Chorus:)
America - inside my heart
This song's for you - with all my love

Took a break - times have changed
Letting go - re-arrange
Strong belief - riding on
Here we are - KINGDOM COME

I don't care - where you're from
Just be cool - Get it on


8. Religion Needs No Winner


Being burned by the flame
I believe it's not the same
A sign of the time
It's a very dangerous game
I simply can't ignore
What's causing so much war
Religion's no excuse
For all the damned abuse

We're shedding blood in vein
So intense, so much pain
The truth we cannot see
An illusion of being free

Believe in something good
You defenitely should
Wanna change it, make a deal
Get back to what is real

Cry out - start to conquer your doubts
(Reach out - love is showing you how)

(Chorus:)
Religion - needs no winner
White pidgeon - can't be the sinner


9. Darling


Thought your heart was strong and free
Full of joy, like springtime leaves
Then you left, on and on
Disbelief, has taught you wrong
And now the magic's gone, your fear has won

Scared to talk, hiding out
You want my love, but don't know how
The scars you've caused, are hard to count
Love has kept me shut my mouth
I thought that love alone, would break all stone

(Chorus:)
Whenever you cried, you knew it was right
But then all your second thoughts, killed you inside

Loving - ain't no fantasy
Darling - what a tragedy
Warnings - didn't make you see
//Frightening - how you're burned in me

You took advise, from so called friends
No surprise, they talked no sense

My past you've said, will catch up strong
The love I feel, will soon be gone

Security you chose, like a plastic rose


10. Do You Dare


Make no sound - start to feel
In and out - nothing's real
Love is rising - want to share
Come on out - I'll be there
(Chorus:)
You'd rather hide - behind uniform
Sitting inside - the eye of the storm

Do you care - do you dare
I'm calling you - meet me half way through

The human mind - 's hard to read
Disbelief - killed the seed
Fear is rising - sure you know
The only way - 's to let it go

(Chorus:)
Double-Chorus:
love's cool breeze
Make the call - you can't fall
Warm and true - 's what I'll be to you


11. Easy Talking Hardline


got it all - everlasting sunshine
can't recall - when I had a bad time
something's wrong it's getting colder
things have changed but it ain't over
need a break - allowing all the changes
(Chorus:)
easy talking hardline
showing off your sharp mind
putting on a sad smile
doesn't help - never mind
take a walk in my shoes
facing all the bad news
all you'd see are stop signs
everlasting red lights

coming down - taking on a hard way
finding out - when to make the right play
sticking to my own commitment
gotta wait - there's gonna be a right time

letting go - believing in a good cause
lot of times I've almost dropped it
my inner voice made me fight it
the call is out - the mission is believing
