- A Temporary Dive
I fell down in that hole again
I am a lump of jelly
I am a dead fish
I look up at the blue sky
Aand I know that it's just
A temporary dive
- Ain't No Cure For Love
original by Leonard Cohen
I loved you for a long, long time
I know this love is real
It don't matter how it all went wrong
That don't change the way I feel
And I can't believe that time's
Gonna heal this wound I'm speaking of
- Alfonsina y el Mar
Por la blanda arena que lame el mar
Su peque??a huella no vuelve mas,
Un sendero solo de pena y silencio llego
Hasta el agua profunda,
Un sendero solo de penas mudas llego
Hasta la espuma.
Sabe dios que angustia te acompa??o
- All My Tears
When I go don't cry for me
In my fathers arms I'll be
the wounds this world left on my soul
will all be healed and I'll be whole
sun and moon will be replaced with the light of Jesus face
and I will not be ashamed for my savior knows my name
It don't matter where you bury me
- Are They Saying Goodbye
Are they saying goodbye?
Or is it just like before
Could it be that I
Made him love her more
Does he curse upon my face
Do I symbolize disgrace?
Could it be that I made him love her more
- Armour
Welcome – my dear friend
I notice you are wearing your armour again
is it the same as our last fight?
Is it residue from last night?
Well – I guess I have extended it
I tried to bend it a bit
There was a crack under the chest frame
- Balloon Ranger
Your voice
Morphine in my ear
I see you – down there
Holding on to me
Balloon ranger…
You´re holding on to this thread
- Better Than This
We´re better than this
this is taking over
this is breaking us down
oh we´re better than this
better than this
moving in fast pace
towards a tipping point
- Big in Japan
Winter's cityside,
Crystal bits of snowflakes all around my head and in the wind...
I had no illusions
That i'd ever find a glimpse of summer heatwaves in your eyes.
You did what you did to me,
Now it's history I see
Here's my comeback on the road again.
Things will happen while they can,
- Big Yellow Taxi
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've
Got till it's gone?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
- Changing Of The Seasons
He falls asleep on her chest
the best sleep he´d ever met
nevertheless he dreams of some stranger´s caress
so he awakes and he knows
maybe someone else is supposed
to meet his hazy anticipating eyes
he draws the curtains aside
- Daring to love
You will find me there amongst the brave ones
The ones that I can never overcome
I want to be someone you can lay your weight upon
Someone who saves you, someone who holds on
Daring to love
Oh, LOVE
And come alive
- Do You Remember
Do you remember the late morning
when we went back to bed,
when we found the first position
and every muscle are resting
I do remember that I already knew
it was the last time,
the last time for first positions
- Don't Leave
Don’t ever leave
That is what you asked of me
do you know what it means
when you plead?
Don’t you ever leave
that is what you said to me
do you know what that can do
to someone like me?
- Easier
Ohh what a feeling I have inside today
No lack of faith in me, like yesterday
I have too remember exactly where I am
'Cause I don't wanna go in the wrong direction again
Because I have no worries,
Altogether feels easier, right now then ever
I have no worries, no, altogether, feels easier
- Falling Down
We run for the weaker soldiers
Even when they are not around
Always run for the weaker soldiers
A morning after without a sound
We run for the weaker soldiers
Even when they are not around
Always run for the weaker soldiers
- Gillian
Gillian played me a song
it was that day when everything was wrong
Gillian singing in my heart – in my ears
and tears running down
I was facing the ground
Gillian played me a song
I was so tired then
- Girl From The North Country
If you're travelin' in the
North country fair
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
For she once was a true love of mine
If you go when the snowflakes storm
When the rivers freeze and summer ends
- Hallo
Remember those walls I built
Well baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your hallo
I got my angel now
- Hanging
We're hanging in between
and exhaling the truth
Something in me wants to keep the air
breathing and stay put
Linger on and break free from gravity
Your just float baggy clothes
- Headphone Silence
I´m travelling
The wonderful loneliness
Of the headphone silence
Feels like noone can see me
They see right through me
Cuts me off
From the rest of the world
- How To Disappear Completely
That there, that's not me
I go where I please i walk through walls
I float down the Liffey
I'm not here this isn't happening
I'm not here i'm not here
In a little while i'll be gone
- Humming one of your songs
I am walking
I am walking alone
And I am humming
I am humming one of your songs
I just know one small verse in the middle of it
but it makes me want to hear it on and on and on and on
I just know one small verse in the middle of it
- I Would Hurt A Fly
I can't get that sound you make
Out of my head
I can't even figure out what's making it
No one else around even seems to be noticing
It's only small enough for me
I can't get that sound you make
Out of my head
- I'll need both my hands
I am holding your torch
I won't hold it no more
You can have it, take it, use it
I am holding your torch
I won't hold it no more
You can have it, take it, use it
- If I Had A Ribbon Bow
If I had a ribbon bow to bind my hair
If I had a fancy sash
My love would think me fair
Then he would go to Frankfurt
A-loggin' on the rise
He'd bring me back with his own hands
A very pretty prize
- Lifeline
All this time
I've been drawing your lifeline
As I held your hand in mine
I've been smoothing out your troubles
While my own I left behind
All this time
I've been painting our portrait
- Linger with Pleasure
I’ll rent a house somewhere
I’ll listen to Biosphere
and all I see there
a straight line in the atmosphere
every hour will be longer
and I’ll linger with pleasure
the only visitor I will invite
- Lullaby For Grown-Ups
Go to sleep
with closed eyes
your prophecies
won’t be fulfilled tonight
when you think
of falling skies
remember there are a million ways to die
- Morning Theft
woke up this morning
lit a cigarette
I could still here your snoring
see your silhouette
I have to go my baby
I have to leave you now
my head is spinning heavily
- My Lover Will Go
What am I gonna do?
I am crying a bottle of wine over you
This is something I don´t usually do
But I am crying a bottle of wine over you
For me it is red or nothing
Hey-ho my lover will go
And this will ruin everything
- No Reason To Cry
All I'm wanting is to see you
And to hold you once again
And see the sun color your hair
And see the tall grass blow in the wind
Overcome me bitter sweetness
Put me under a magic spell
Overcome me all my sadness
- Oh love
Oh Love,
Right from the start
We were old love,
Like we´ve never been parted.
You kissed me,
Your hands down my side to my hips dear,
Shivers and sighs.
All the breathing,
- Oh Love,slips Her hand inside My hand
Lift me, lift me from the ground
And don´t ever put me down, oh no
And don't pick a fight with me
Just flip a coin my love, you've won
Oh Love, slips her hand inside my hand
Oh Love, slips her hand inside my hand
I don´t care if you don't want me
- One
It all starts somewhere
It all starts with one
Everything comes from something
It all starts with one
It all starts somewhere
It all starts with one
Nothing comes from nothing
- One Last Try
I wish I had one last try
Hidden somewhere inside
But it's all been spend before
When I reach for it I can sense it in my hand
And when I try to grasp it
It's like sand, or water
Through my hopeful fingers
- One More Time
I'll try one more time
One more time
To know you
I’ll try one more time
One more time
To understand
The values you lost
And we kept
- Right In Time
Not a day goes by I don't think about you
You left your mark on me it's permanent a tattoo
Pierce the skin and the blood runs through
Oh my baby
The way you move it's right in time
The way you move it's right in time
It's right in time with me
- Rubber and soul
In my mind I`m crawling on your floor
Vomiting and defeated
Total absence of grace
Your reluctant voice
saying; you decide your own fate
But I wear rubberbands round my soul
They keep me from crawling
- She Belongs to Me
She's got everything she needs
She's an artist, she don't look back
She's got everything she needs
She's an artist, she don't look back
She can take the dark out of the
Nighttime and paint the daytime black
You will start out standing
- Show Me Heaven
There you go flashing fever from your eyes
Hey baby, come over here and shut them tight
I'm not denying we're flying above it all
Hold my hand, don't let me fall
You've such amazing grace
I've never felt this way
Oh, show me heaven cover me
- Sleeping by the Fyris River
Sleeping by the Fyris River
It´s dawn the crack of dawn
A saxophone
An armchair
And a small drum
Sunrise, all smiles
- So You Did it Again
So you did it again
I guess you´ve done this before
you lay all your time and money
on the fuckin’ wrong horse
so you did it again
I guess you’ve been here before
A little kissin´and a lovin
And your best judgement
- the dancer
He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory
I cant believe what the Lord has finally sent me
He said, "Dance for me, fanciulla gentile"
He said, "Laugh awhile, I can make your heart feel"
He said, "Fly with me, touch the face of the true God
Cry with joy at the depth of my love"
- The fall
I'll get of this boat in a minute
cause I know you'll be safer without me in it
then you called
I love you so
don't ever let me go
I will fall to the ground
- The light
I am holding your torch
I won't hold it no more
You can have it, take it, use it
I am holding your torch
I won't hold it no more
You can have it, take it, use it
- The Puzzle
I walked into love
I walked into a minefield
I never heard of
I walked into love
I walked into a minefield
I never heard of
- The Treehouse Song
When I woke I took the back door to my mind
And then I spoke I counted all of the good things you are
And that list of charms was longer than my chain of broken hearts
And when the day was done I figured I had already lost
From the start, from the start
I was gonna love you till the end of all daytime
- These Days
There were nights and mornings
When you come to me
Found your way into my bones, my joints
Into my veins
Like an animal you coiled your darkness around me
You spelled your name in charcoal
All over my body
- This Voice
This voice
Is it calling
Is it calling
It's your choice
She said
Take or let go
Is it calling
When you're all alone
- To Let Myself Go
To let myself go.
To let myself flow.
Is the only way of being?
There's no use telling me
There's no use taking a step back
A step back for me...
To let myself go
- True colors
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness, inside you
Can make you feel so small
- Undertow
I must follow
These movements wherever they go
I must follow
These movements wherever they go
I'm caught in your undertow
Caught in your undertow
I've been trying
- Visa Vid Midsommartid
Du lindar av Olvon en midsommar krans
Och hänger den om ditt hår
Du skrattar åt mångubbens benvita glans
Som högt över tallen står
I natt ska du dansa vid Svartrama tjärn
I långdans i språngdans på glödande järn
I natt är du bjuden av dimman till dans
- What's happening with you and him
What's happening with you and him
Do you believe you can find a way to begin again
Is it still there, do you really care
Do you need this, is this the love that you missed
What's happening with you and him
Are you looking for each other
Around your old selves again
- Where Friend Rhymes with End
My friend, you left me in the end
I can´t believe I´m writing a song
where friend rhymes with end
But today I must cave in
I have trouble forgetting those beautiful eyes
As it is
I must fill your space with lies
- Words
Words, take her with you
Let her rest in your rhyme
Words, take her away
Somewhere, be on time
Words, ease her breathing
Lay her softly on the floor
There, let her linger
And listen like ever before
- Worship
You never worship, you never worship your life.
You never worship, you never worship your life.
You never worship, you never worship your life.
You never worship, you never worship your life.
You never worship, you never worship your life.
You never worship, you never worship your life.
- You Lit My Fire
I will never ever
I will never ever forget
I will never ever
I will never ever forget
They changed our game
I want to kiss the feet of all those women
Spray my body in gold
