Love Is Like a Goldmine

Love is Like a Goldmine
”Checked in at Seaman’s church
Shaking like a tambourine
Lennon’s eyes, red lights, sharp knives
Light up the sky above the city streets
You lost the southern cross in the sea
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
And let the feathers fall down
On your way back home
All lovers lost in line they say:
”We’ll hold you for a while”
This river runs wild wine
They say: ”Love is like a goldmine”
They say: ”Love is like a goldmine”
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
And let the feathers fall down
On your way back home
Let the feathers fall down
Let the feathers fall down
Let the feathers fall down
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
And let the feathers fall down
On your way back home
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
It feels like real love
Fly away before I’m gone
And let the feathers fall down
On your way back home”

”I can see your silhouette
When the light cuts the space
Time works hard to get us out of our heads
This place is a holy place
Among other sacred things
Soon it will fall
We can read it from the papers
We can see it on the silver screen
Wherever we go
They’re knocking at our door
Throw away the storyboard
Blueprints, 3D, my mobile phone
I can see and I can walk
I’m speaking in tongues
Cause I do recall
Like modern-day Mitchell and Kenyon
We got our lives tied to railroads
The words are water
And waiting’s for the sane
Guide me through it all
All over again
Self-immolation could stop it all
Life in a tailspin
The ideas drift free at the station hall
Next to smokey lane
I was living my life in Hollywood b film.
Did I have a choice?
You killed the phrase that I was repeating
When you raised your voice
On the day you stepped in
Throw away the storyboard
Blueprints, 3D, my mobile phone
I can see and I can walk
I’m speaking in tongues
Cause I do recall
Like modern day Mitchell and Kenyon
We got our lives tied to railroads
The words are water
And waiting’s for the sane
Guide me through it all
All over again
Throw away the storyboard
3 minutes of pitching and my mobile phone
I can see and I can walk
I’m speaking in tongues
Cause I do recall
Yes I do recall
I can see your silhouette
When the light cuts the space
Time works hard to get us out of our heads
This place is a holy place”

Ghost Girl

”Hey Greyhound good boy
Take me for a ride
Through the cotton fields
We go side by side
Hey Greyhound good boy
I feel she’s around
Just like on the day
Back in 1899
Like a ghost girl
She walks in her cotton dress
Take my hand please dance
We have our second chance
Have you ever felt
That you’re a chosen one
I wanna spend my time in her arms
My sweet love
My lonely days are gone
Have you ever felt
That you’re a chosen one
I wanna spend my time in her arms
My sweet love
My lonely days are gone
My lonely days are gone…”

Tennessee

”Tennessee drives me mad but I’m not lonely
I was haunted for years and
Now I’m on the road to glory
We’re driving slowly
Catching up with the time
Oh lord give it back to me
Tennessee falls into my arms like a little baby
I was haunted for years but the tears I was shedding
Were your tears
We’re driving slowly
Catching up with the time
Oh lord give it back to me
We’ll never wait
Waiting makes us devils again
We’ll never wait again
Tennessee hold me tight and don’t you worry
I know you’re one of the immortals
And we’re on this road to glory
We’re driving slowly
Catching up with the time
Oh lord give it back to me
We’ll never wait
Waiting makes us devils again
We’ll never wait again
We’ll never wait
Waiting makes us devils again
We’ll never wait again
Let me slow down at the steelroad bridge
Behind the river just like back in 76
So Tennessee hold me tight
I don’t want to waste your time
So all you gotta do is
Stay on the road for a while
We’ll never wait
Waiting makes us devils again
We’ll never wait again
We’ll never wait
Waiting makes us devils again
We’ll never wait again”

Widdershins

”Yes I recall the days on my own,
The endless dawn and the waisted years
Lies, love and liberty
Yes I recall the morning dew
How I waited for you and that healing soul
Getting closer every day
Widdershins we go
From spring to summer of hopes
My baby knows it all
Yes I recall the records I played
All the longing it takes to get by your side
And shake the troubles out of the door
Yes I recall the tone of your voice
When I had no choice, I got carried away
Carried away again
Widdershins we go
From spring to summer of hopes
My baby knows it all
Widdershins we go
From the autumn till the dawn
My baby knows it all
Where you’ve been hiding
Hey tender soul
I’ve been dreaming way too long
In your regime, the kingdom of love
My baby knows it all”

The Wall

”On the night like this some 1000 years ago
I went looking for silver screen on my own
The walls of snow they were everywhere
She had 1000 ideas in her head
Our silver turns into gold
Somehow somewhere we lost control
Came another snowstorm out of the blue
Swept away our numbers in a second or two
The ideas of love were overrated
We broke our little heads against the wall
Our silver turns into gold
Somehow somewhere we lost control
Our silver turns into gold
Somehow somewhere we lost control
I’m shivering as the snowflakes start to fall down
Waiting for the train to get me around town
When the bitter tears were running down our cheeks
I wasn’t looking for her she wasn’t looking for me
Our silver turns into gold
Somehow somewhere we lost control
Our silver turns into gold
Somehow somewhere we lost control
Our silver turns into gold
Somehow somewhere we lost control
Our Silver turns into gold again
Gold again”

Starlight City

”Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
Milk and honey running down the hills
Left out lover days of diamond mills
Dead end story this waiting thrills
I saw you standing there
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
Breaking stars shoot in limelight
One never shines through the city lights
I need a lover angelic eyes
I saw you standing there
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
We can split our wedding ring
We will fall for another swing
Taste of glory, the taste of sin
I saw you standing there
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city don’t let me down tonight
Starlight city my town full of light
Starlight city I got some time tonight”

Alms

”Her face says nothing at all
About me and my home
Shake those tears away
I try to move on
Casting shadow of a doubt
Over the nation’s finest hour
And all mother superior does
Is shake her head
Living on alms and your sympathetic smile
I’m gonna talk with the devil
Before I’ll leave it all behind
After all he didn’t care
About a little things in his head
Chasing rabbits all over the place
Under the midday sun
Sleepwalking 3 am
Sleepwalking through the years
Of bloodstained dreams and
Valleys of the holy men
Living on alms and your sympathetic smile
I’m gonna talk with the devil
Before I’ll leave it all behind
Living on alms and your sympathetic smile
I’m gonna talk with the devil
Before I’ll leave it all behind
And I want it (Your sympathetic smile)
And I want it (Your sympathetic smile)
And I want it (Your sympathetic smile)
And I want”

Calling Cards
03:58

”Laying on the sunny beach
Cool drinks, sandwich, coffee and milk
The radio plays its easy beats
Good kids the calling cards eat chips
Your creation is a crime
Against the one who’s hands are tied
You’re creative with your crimes
Do you know what’s left behind
I went downtown on that dreadful night
I thought it was ok in my drunken mind
I remember well all in detail
You promised one thing and other thing happened
Your creation is a crime
Against the one who’s hands are tied
You’re creative with your crimes
Do you know what’s left behind
It’s not a about mannish pride
I’ve read my Judith, I’ve read my Gertrude Stein
Million people wait all their lives
Why don’t you save it for the one alike”

Nightless Night

”This harbor waited for shadows
This port knew only the bad birds
The summer waited for shadows
But the sky was open for falls
Follow me across the mountains
Follow me across the great sea
Our ideas grow into arrows
And this is our century
Be summer around, my shadowless day
Show me the world around
Be summer of mine, I’m here to shine
It all works out fine on the nightless night
This harbor waited for shadows
This port knew only the bad birds
The summer waited for shadows
But the sky was open for falls
Be summer around, my shadowless day
Show me the world around
Be summer of mine, I’m here to shine
It all works out fine on the nightless night”
