God Of Soul

Saw him down the hallway through the haze of people’s talks
A jazzy cigarette hanging loosely from his lips
Slightly leaning backwards with a grin of golden teeth
The lady of my dreams at his polished fingertips
A falsely jewelled king with a sunburnt ivory skin
Playing with the keys of his coffee coloured Cadillac
Jumped up on the stage and he started singing blues
That brought everyone to tears and made me look just like a fool
‘Cause I do not belong here
I closed my eyes but still I saw him sing like..
I closed my eyes but couldn’t stop my ears
I closed my eyes but still I saw him sing like
An ancient god of soul
Came to calm my lover’s grief he kissed the falling tears
He kissed the falling tears, he kissed the falling tears
Jumped up on the stage and he started singing blues
That brought everyone to tears and made me look just like a fool
‘Cause I do not belong here
I closed my eyes but still I saw him sing like..
I closed my eyes but couldn’t stop my ears
I closed my eyes but still I saw him sing like
An ancient god of soul
'Cause I’m a drunken priest who sounds as though
He lost his faith an age ago
Like a drunken priest who sounds as though
He lost his faith an age ago
Like a drunken priest who sounds as though
He lost his faith an age ago
I only see the things that put me on my knees
And taste the bitter truth of broken dreams

Thieves In The Night

Your hands are cold you are waiting for the night to fall into your arms
Afraid to speak above a whisper but you know you’ll be getting what you want
‘cause you can feel the eyes through the Gabbana shades burning on your backless dress
And I thought we’d reached the point of no return until you left a fake address
Which read:
Come see me down the road to the end of my darkness
Then kiss me ‘till the rise of the morning sun
And call me what you want but don’t reduce me to pieces
‘cause a worn out soul can’t be cured anymore they simply get you another one
Your hands were cold you were waiting for the sun to warm your frozen heart
And I wish I could’ve been your charming man but I just fell apart
When you took French leave to the City of Light ‘cause you said you simply couldn’t decide
But you stole my heart and you took your leave like a thief into the night.
Come see me down the road to the end of my darkness
Then kiss me ‘till the rise of the morning sun
And call me what you want but don’t reduce me to pieces
‘cause a worn out soul can’t be cured anymore they simply get you another one
Come see me down the road to the end of my darkness
Then kiss me ‘till the rise of the morning sun
And call me what you want but don’t reduce me to pieces
‘cause a worn out soul can’t be cured anymore they simply get you another one

Fallen Leaves

And you start
To wonder why
They told you how mathematics work
But never told you what to say to her
And you try
Not to drown
To find some lifeline on this sinking ship
Sailing the ocean of old mistakes
What can you do
When she looks at you
But she doesn’t see
You can barely breathe
Where do you go when the night gets cold
When she’s not there and nowhere is home
You forgot the rhythm of loneliness
The colour of her midnight dress
What can you do
When she looks at you
But she doesn’t see
You can barely breathe
So you went to the place where you saw her yesterday
And you picked up the pieces of all your love in vain
The fallen leaves of an old romance
The echoes of things left unsaid
The fallen leaves of an old romance
The echoes of things left unsaid
What can you do
When she looks at you
But she doesn’t see
You can barely breathe
And here you go again
You don’t know how to ask
Whether she would mind
If you tried one more time

They seem to forget they hate this place
As they try to catch her sky-blue eyes
But when she turns around they're caught like deer
Naked in the headlights
And though we never even said hello
It seems as though
The night could crumble as soon as you’d go
The night could crumble as soon as you’d leave
The night could crumble as soon as you’d go
So won’t you stay a little longer ‘till the bouncers show us home
I don’t know what to say, I don’t think I would stand
The leaden burden of her caramel beauty
And I’m afraid she suffers from type one diabetes
Due to sugar coated conversations
And though we never even said hello
It seems as though
The night could crumble as soon as you’d go
The night could crumble as soon as you’d leave
The night could crumble as soon as you’d go
So won’t you stay a little longer ‘till the bouncers show us home
We all just love to hesitate
Until she moves towards the door
I offered some sort of excuse
Me for interrupting I’m just under the impression that
The night could crumble as soon as you’d go
The night could crumble as soon as you’d leave
The night could crumble as soon as you’d go
So won’t you stay a little longer ‘till the bouncers show us home
So won’t you stay a little longer ‘till the bouncers show us home
