I'm walking in the park
And I'm talking to the dark
But there ain't nobody listening
My heart has turned to stone
When I found myself alone
Now all I do is whisper to the dark

There's only so much you can take
You've gotta to give yourself a break
But I don't think you're listening
If you're gonna take it all so hard
You gonna tear yourself apart
I can understand you miss him in the dark

Yeah, teach your heart how to sing get the courage again now
Yeah, take the 10:50pm train to the city
Yeah, I had a chance for romance so I do it again now

If love is no longer being served
You've got to leave the table
Mister aznavour told me, merci beaucoup
Though I miss him, got to let go
Though I miss him, got to let go
Let it go

It's about that time to leave it all behind you
You don't want to but life is passing by you
The hard knocks, got you twisted like dreadlocks
Catalogue your dark and set some new marks
I understand your body's filled with hesitation
Trust me it's gonna be a whole new situation
Turn this page I guess you know what to do
Rise up like phoenix I'm bringing out the beauty in you

Yeah, teach your heart how to sing get the courage again now
Yeah, take the 10:50pm train to the city
Yeah, I had a chance for romance so I do it again now

Right behind the perfect face
There's someone who keeps secrets hidden
We think I don't wanna know
Reasons why you're crashin' over me

I don't look back
Darlin' so it goes
But I regret

That we couldn't make it rain
And all our dreams were left to dry
Can't make it rain
There's not one cloud left in the sky
So you said you'd try
We bled, we cried
We couldn't make it rain

We had everything to live for
Even if we didn't understand
The game of give and take
Was more than just the sum of what we made

The most of time
So we'll move on
And leave it all behind

'Cause we couldn't make it rain
And all our dreams were left to dry
Can't make it rain
There's not one cloud left in the sky
So you said you'd try
We've bled, we've cried
We couldn't make it rain

Now I can't help thinkin' about
Places we would go
But I won't be alone
No more
But this fault won't be mine
Everything is gone

Make it rain
And our dreams were left to dry
Can't make it rain
There's not one cloud left in the sky
So make it rain
All our dreams were left to dry
Can't make it rain
There's not one cloud left in the sky
So you said you'd try
We bled, we cried
You said you'd try
We bled, we've cried
We've cried

Crazy way to get ur kicks
They shoot the silicone in ur lips
If you're figure makes u sad
They suck the fat right of ur back

Make up ur mind about ur tits girls
They can puff em up so no bra will fit girls
Theres only one thing they cant fix
No I wont let u be mislead
And that's the hole in ur head
Cant do nothing about that

hell hell modern world
hell hell to all u boys and girls
hell hell hell the colour green
hell hell to what ive seen
hell hell hell this modern world

you tell her that's shes beautiful
you put her on a ...
but as ur ...
Imagination kicks in

The more u think about sex boys
With someone else the better it gets boys
U have a purpose in ur life
Besides cheating on the wife
For fuck sake show some sense

hell hell modern world
hell hell to all u boys and girls
hell hell hell the colour green
hell hell to what ive seen
hell hell hell this modern world

yeah yeah yeah yeahh 2x

these days adoption is a hot thing
u can get a child for nearly nothing
you take them home to a nanny
buy off ur guilt with toys and candy
but all the money that u work for girls
cant compare it to love boys

theres only one thing they cant fix
No I wont let u be mislead
And that's the hole in ur head
Cant do nothing about that
hell hell modern world
hell hell to all u boys and girls
hell hell hell the colour green
hell hell to what ive seen
hell hell hell this modern world

ahhh
yeah yeah yeah yeahhh

Music & lyrics: Anouk Teeuwe / Bart van Veen

Hey Michel how's life are you ok
I wonder if you ever think of me
It's been 9 years since that kiss
I can help but reminisce
Hey Michel do you remember

We walked the street to the beat
Hand in hand you and me
Smiling faces so in love
Hoping that they all could see
That we belonged together you and me against the world
But we found out the hard way cause it wasn't meant to be

Now it's you and her I see

You were my first and worst love
And so it only could go wrong
But ain't that just the way you learn
Hey Michel I just wanted to let you know
That someone else has stolen my heart
And now another girl has caught your eye
That doesn't mean I don't think of you
I am just hoping that she'll treat you right

Do you remember
How we walked the street to the beat
Hand in hand and you and me
Smiling faces so in love
Hoping that they all could see
That we belonged together you and me against the world
But we found out the hard way cause it wasn't meant to be

Now it is you and her I see

It was just a silly dream

Whatever you say babe
dont you know
im not afraid
cause i know just where to go
I'm loving you babe
all the time
I know that love will find a place
for you and i

I know I should've called you first but i
couldn't stop myself from driving to you just to see
your smile makes me wanna be with you is that alright?
Boy i just cant help myself and thats the reason why

Whatever you say babe
don't you know
im not afraid
cause i know just where to go
I'm loving you babe
all the time
I know that love will find a place
for you and i

Well, were driving in my car the music playes
the way you make me feel is like im walking on air
i'll make you believe again that lovers do stay
and every now and then we fight without walking away

Oh babe, you just drive me crazy
forget the world for a while it doesnt matter
near or far, gotta have you in my arms
that is where i'll stay

Whatever you say babe
dont you know
im not afraid
cause i know just where to go
I'm loving you babe
all the time
I know that love will find a place
for you and i

The words are slowly sinking in
Despair comes unexpected
Everything falls out of place
Now my imagination
It moves in all directions
I can only see your face
Now please don't leave me

I'm caught in the middle
It pulls me down to places no-one goes
So you need to find out
If there's a chance for us
What a difference it makes
Waking up here without you
Baby, we can make this right

Water's so much colder
I was lasting longer
Ever since you went away
Having a different point of view
Doesn't make it right for you
To decide that you don't have to stay
Now please don't leave me

I'm caught in the middle
It pulls me down to places no-one goes
So you need to find out
If there's a chance for us
What a difference it makes
Waking up here without you
Baby, we can make this right

This heart can not erase you
After years replace you
Don't you think that's kind of sad
Now please don't leave me

I'm caught in the middle
It pulls me down to places no-one goes
So you need to find out
If there's a chance for us
What a difference it makes
Waking up here without you
Baby, we can make this right
We can make this right

Girl girl girl
When I hear him talk
Ooh my mind gets blocked girl

Speak up 'cause my jaw is locked
Which is good, good for me girl
It hides like a warning sign
But I'm too blind to see

Speak up yes I'm coming down
With an ice cold fever
Ice cold fever
Ice cold fever

Still got my hands they're clinging
So I just keep going
I don't know where I belong
Could I belong to you
No I don't know where I belong
Could I belong

Girl girl girl
Get it while it's hot they say
You see I'm burning up here
I want to but I just can't stop
And it hurts
It hurts like hell girl

You turn me inside out and upside down
Ooh you got me head over heels
I'm stuck
Yes I'm coming down with an ice cold fever
Ice cold fever
Ice cold fever, aha

Still got my hands they're clinging
So I just keep going
I don't know where I belong
Could I belong to you
No I don't know where I belong
Could I belong
Could I belong

Still got my hands they're clinging
So I just keep going
I don't know where I belong
Could I belong to you
No I don't know where I belong
Could I belong
Oh girl, yeah I belong

To you, you, you
To you, yeah you
To you, you, you
To you, yeah you

To you, you, you
Yeah I belong to you
Say you yeah you
Could I belong to you
Alright

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!

Music & lyrics: A. Teeuwe / B. van Veen

Sure got my piece of heaven
An angel in disguise
Gone wild

But I thought you were a man
Who knew right from wrong
That's why I really don't understand
Why he's with her

It's killing me
What has she got that I don't have
Is it the way she looks at you
Laughs with you, can she,
Does she make you beg for more
This is hurting
What has she got that I don't have

I tried to call him
Anytime anywhere
But he's never there

So I went to his place
And waited all day
So he would explain it to me
And this is what he said:

There is nothing left to say
I had my fill, I went away
Your crying eyes won't change a thing
It was just a fling

Well how could an angel break my heart
He said: We could still be friends

Are you kidding me
What has she got that I don't have
Is it the way she looks at you
Talks to you, can she
Does she make you beg for more
This is hurting
What has she got that i don't have

But twice every year
When he's in tears
When he loses his mind
And can't help but cry
He'll call me and then

Oh, some things are better left unsaid
You'll find a nice place to hide them
But days like this
There is just too much going on, yeah

So I'm picking up the pieces of my past
But I can't find no peace at all
So in other words
I am so ready to be found

So I'll try and I might
Stand up and fight
To leave this place someday
All I need is that moment
To make me believe that you're alive
And then I'll be alright, alright

Paradise grown cold
One hand on my door
Way too high hopes
I can't tell right from wrong
Show me how it's done
Lord I need to be saved
And then I'll be alright, alright yeah

Oh yeah, on days like these
There is just too much going on
So I try and I might
Stand up and fight
To leave this place someday
All I need is this moment
To make me believe that you're alive
And then I'll be alright

Paradise grown cold
One hand on my door
Way too high hopes
I can't tell right from wrong
Show me how it's done
Lord I need to be saved
And then I'll be alright
And then I'll be alright
And then I'll be alright
And then I'll be alright

I'm watching your shadow cut by the moon
Peaceful I wait for the dawn
These moments in silence are all that I need
The softness of hearing you breathe

And I know it doesn't get better than this
Funny it starts with just one little kiss

Baby all I know you're no longer alone
We've started a home of our own love
All my love is yours, you're no longer alone
We've started a home of our own love

Your ups and your downs, powers and fears
Your presence fulfils my desire
You're all that I've wished for
You're more than I need, you're right where I wanna be

Oh no, I don't ask questions or try to explain
Telling myself it just happens this way

Baby all I know you're no longer alone
We've started a home of our own love
All my love is yours, you're no longer alone
We've started a home of our own love

I don't ask questions or try to explain
Telling myself it just happens this way

Baby all I know you're no longer alone
We've started a home of our own love
All my love is yours, you're no longer alone

Baby all I know you're no longer alone
We've started a home of our own love
All my love is yours, you're no longer alone

Baby all I know you're no longer alone
Baby all I know you're no longer alone

We're breaking things we can't repair
But none of us will take the blame
No nothing can be done this time
All the memories that we've made
I threw them all away
There's no need to talk it over

Don't let me get you down
Let's just move on
I am setting you free

'Cause I don't wanna hurt no more
No I don't wanna make you go through one more rainy day
No I don't wanna hurt no more
Strange enough I always knew
I'm taking off today
I don't wanna hurt no more

The darkness you left in my soul
Do we know how much we've lost
Will the moon be shine in his bright as before
And his arms sing in the song
Tears well up in my eyes
And I will always wonder

Why I will never have
The life I wanted
Now I'm letting it go

'Cause I don't wanna hurt no more
No I don't wanna make you go through one more rainy day
No I don't wanna hurt no more
There's not much more to say
'Cause it's to late now
I won't hurt no more

So I wait 'till morning comes
You made it clear that it has been only pain loving me
Things that we won't do for love
I am setting you free

'Cause I don't wanna hurt no more
No I don't wanna make you go through one more rainy day
No I don't wanna hurt no more
Strange enough I always knew
I'm taking off today

I'm letting you go

Graduated fool, that is what I am
for every time I failed you
you're so beautiful, I just turned and walked away
I jingle with words, tangle my tongue
stammering stutters
so I wrote you this song, to finally tell you
what you've know all along, I love you
believe in me, believe me

it was true devotion, now these mixed emotions
oh, I did it again
I want you to forgive me, when the pain has faded
we'll be laughing again
believe in me

graduated fool, i'm better than I am
for that is what you made me
please, hold back your tears
I didn't deserve you anyway
believe in me, I still care for you, believe me
just believe in me. believe me

when I kiss you face again, all these mixed emotions
of pleasure and pain
I want you to forgive me, when the pain has faded
we'll be laughing again

believe in me, you're so beautiful, believe me

I'm just thinkin' about the child in me,
That I sometimes feel inside
And I'm figuring out just what it is
That makes me feel so small
Is it you, that hurts me when I give myself
Every day and every night
Am I too blind to see that it doesn't work out
Did I really ask too much of you baby
Do you mean to tell me that's the way it is
Do you mean to say

It's all so hard, It's so hard
It's all so hard, It's so hard

As I search for an answer, I see the clear blue sky
And I know that you're the one to blame
And I feel so naïve
When you say that our love to you was just a game
I dream, my dream, I'm sane, I'm insane
Oh, please don't, please don't speak to me that way
Do you mean to tell me that's the way it is
Do you mean to say

It's all so hard, It's so hard
It's all so hard, It's so hard
Damned it's so hard, why you're so hard

What about those songs you sang my love
Were they meant for her
And all those words you never said before

What about those kisses in my sleep
Were they meant for her
Tomorrow will be fine
Yeah just a little while
Oh no this ain't no way to live
ґCause I will be

Watching every step, scared I won't find you again
ґCause if I leave you by yourself then you can hide away
I'll be watching every step, scared I won't find you again
ґCause if I leave you by yourself, yeah

What about that bracelet in your car
Was it meant for her
I am more than you deserve
Tomorrow will be fine
Oh no this ain't no way to live
ґCause I will be

Watching every step, scared I won't find you again
ґCause if I leave you by yourself then you can hide away
I'll be watching every step, scared I won't find you again
ґCause if I leave you by yourself, yeah
ґCause if I leave you by yourself, yeah

Why couldn't you just lie, suicide
Why couldn't you just lie

Watching every step, scared I won't find you again
ґCause if I leave you by yourself then you can hide away
I'll be watching every step, scared I won't find you again
ґCause if I leave you by yourself

Don't you waste my time, suicide, suicide
Don't you waste my time, suicide yeah
I am more than you deserve
I am more than you deserve

If roses are meant to be red
And violets to be blue
Why isn't my heart meant for you

My hands longing to touch you
But I can barely breathe
Starry eyes that make me melt
Right in front of me

Lost in this world
I even get lost in this song
And when the lights go down
That is where I'll be found

This music's irresistible
Your voice makes my skin crawl
Innocent and pure
I guess you heard it all before

Mister Inaccessible
Will this ever change
One thing that remains the same
You're still a picture in a frame

Lost in this world
I even get lost in this song
And when the lights go down
That is where I'll be found

I get lost in this world
I get lost in your eyes
And when the lights go down
That's where I'll be found
Yeah yeah

I get lost in this world
I get lost in your eyes
And when the lights go down
Am I the only one

Who's the one that makes you happy
Who's the one that always makes you laugh
Who's the reason you're smiling
And dragged you through these time, so rough
I was the one that made you happy
I was the one that eased the pain
But I'm the reason that you're crying now
My own tears scattered by the rain

You can sacrifice me
You can sacrifice me
You can set me free
You can be who you wanna be

Deeper than deep you took me on a trip baby
You shared your wildest dreams and more
You dare me to express my feelings to you
I never felt that need before

But suddenly you needed freedom
You felt the need to break free
You started drowning in your sorrow
You didn't wanna know I had the key

You can sacrifice me
You can sacrifice me
You can set me free
You can be who you wanna to be

You can sacrifice me, sacrifice me
You can be who you wanna

I know the drill
you got your ball and chain
Hold you down
the circle round the story stays the same
It wont be long
and then your heart is frozen
The time is coming
to break away

You got it all
What makes you hestitate
Dont just wait
for things to blow up in your pretty face
And if the way
you try not to let it slip away
And you may find yourself again

And I feel
People just dont know you
Like I do
When they making it
so hard to see
When there's something wrong
It goes on and on

I know the drill
you got your ball and chain
I found out the second
round that somethings never change
Open my eyes
and let the days come over me
Maybe it will go away

And I feel
People just dont know you
Like I do
When you're making it
so hard to see
When there's something wrong
on and on and on
you'll see
Now everybody is here
to break your heart
So there is a price to pay
To be someone you're not

I might else while we cheating on you I do
I might else while we cheating on you

Always knew that you would be
Cheating on me finally
I never knew it'd be this who
Didn't see it coming

Yesterday you let me down
The only friend I thought I found
Sleepless nights of harm and due
Baby who was kissing you

If this would have happened to me 10 years ago
I'd make sure that you'd be lying six feet underground
We little girls we grow up knowing love will find a way
So now we have an understanding, I can see why I

Might as well be cheating on you
I might as well do all the things you do
I might as well have a little fun
Baby you inspire, it's the way we carry on

Heavy steal is all you see
that is what is left of me
no remorse no dignity
can we get any higher

to every other happy fool
his loyalty will come for you
lights go out, on your own
so much pretending

Now, If this would have happened to me 10 years ago
I'd make sure that you'd be lying six feet underground
We little girls we grow up knowing love will find a way
So now we have an understanding, let's just rock' n' roll

I might as well be cheating on you
I might as well do all the things you do
I might as well have a little fun
Baby you inspire, it's the way we carry on, yeah yeah

Have you ever
been in love before
And doesn't bother
Cause nothing ever seems to be the way to be
Tell me why won't you love me like the way you used to do
It might be working a while
So take a step back and ask yourself how
This is gonna last when it's all a lie
Hear me out
Swear to God that this is nothing now and don't forget

I might as well be cheating on you
I might as well do all the things you do
I might as well have a little fun
Baby you inspire, it's the way we carry on, yeah yeah
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
Oh Ohhhh

I might else while we cheating on you I do
I might else while we cheating on you I do
I might else while we cheating on you I do
I might else while we cheating on you I do

Now I believe that what I used to think was a lie
Is really alive
Now I can see there's only one place to reach
Only one thing to preach and that's the highest
It's the strangest thing that I can feel so much
There is no reason, there is no logic to feelings
'Cause when love is the dealer I'm addicted
So fascinated, I can't stop this constant craving
You're contagious
It's the strangest thing that I can feel so much
For someone, somehow (2x)

(chorus)

And I cannot hide, even if I'd try
You mean everything to me
Any fool can see, what you've done to me
You mean everything to me
And when you're not here, I just cry
And when you're not here, I could die

The best is still to come dear
The best is still to come for us (2x)

It's the strangest thing that I can feel so much
For someone, somehow (2x)

I lay my weapon down wont fight no more.
Try to get you by my side.
Though I have been in love before,
They could never take my clouds away.

(Chorus):
Babe if you were mine,
I won't hasitate at all,
You just let me know,
I'll be the one to catch your fall.
Anything you need,
Dont give me away,
You make me so confused,
The one I love, loves someone else.

Dont stop the music it feels good,
It keeps my mind of me missing you,
Keep the rain away,
There is nothing for me here,
Without you by my side.

Cuz babe if you were mine,
I won't hasitate at all,
You just let me know,
I'll be the one to catch your fall.
Anything you need,
Don't give me away,
You make me so confused,
The one I love, loves someone else.

Baby what's it gonna be?
Is it gonna be her or me?
Tell me what I have to do?
Cause I know that im good for you.

(Chorus)

Babe if you were mine
If you were mine
Babe if you were mine
Babe if you were mine

Babe if you were mine

If you were mine..

I close my eyes
And imagine you're here
Did it all seem so hopeless
Given the chance
I would ask
Forgive me
I didn't do a thing to make you stay
I didn't say a word to make you stay
If I would have known
Could I have tried to make it easier
But I didn't do a thing
Or say a word
One word

And I don't know why you're gone, now you're gone
No beautiful goodbye
You will never leave my mind
And it turns out to be so much different than our dreams
Now you're, you're a star in heaven

My thoughts unsaid
Stuck in my head
And it all feels so useless
Never forget to give all I have
Forgive me
I couldn't do a thing to make you stay
And I couldn't say a word to make you stay
If I could have known
Could I have tried to make it easier
But I couldn't do a thing
Or say a word
One word

And I don't know why you're gone, now you're gone
No beautiful goodbye
You will never leave my mind
And it turns out to be so much different than our dreams
Now you're, yeah you're a star in heaven

Still I don't know why you're gone, now you're gone
No beautiful goodbye
You will never leave my mind
And it turns out to be so much different than our dreams
Now you're, you're a star in heaven
You're a star in heaven now
You're a star in heaven

Sir can you tell me how to get to Jerusalem
'Cause I have kinda lost my way
Sir will you help me get there as fast as I can
Tomorrow might be too late

'Cause things ain't what they used to be
My love for life is gone you see
Am I fighting things I cannot see
People always tellin' me how sweet and simple life could be
They say you might as well live before you die

But one thing I know for sure
I am a danger to myself, how come
Yeah one thing I know for sure
I need some guidance, to get me out of this hellhole

Jerusalem, can you help me find my way back to Jerusalem, yeah

It took me quite a while to get into Jerusalem
ґCause I had kinda lost my way
I want to save me from myself so here I am
I hope it's not too late

ґCause things ain't what they used to be
My love for life is gone you see
Am I fighting things I cannot see
I am so afraid to love
ґCause of the way I've been hurt before
I think by now it's time for me to leave

But one thing I know for sure
I am a danger to myself, how come
Yeah one thing I know for sure
I need some guidance, to get me out of this hellhole

Jerusalem, can you help me find my way back to Jerusalem
Jerusalem, can you help me find what I have lost

Things ain't what they used to be
My love for life is gone you see
Am I fighting things I cannot see
I don't wanna die this way
Wishing that I could turn back time
Wasted time, there is work to be done

But one thing I know for sure
I am a danger to myself, how come
Yeah one thing I know for sure
I need some guidance, to get me out of this hellhole

Jerusalem, can you help me find my way back to Jerusalem
Jerusalem, can you help me find what I have lost, yeah yeah
Alright

You've got it easy but you've got the nerve to make a face
Although I'm struggeling you can tell because I keep the page
We're out together but I feel you're pushing me aside
Lend me a hand sometimes, the thought won't even cross your mind

You need to take a good look at yourself
Cause I'm about to close our jar
If you need a servant girl find someone else
Time to step up

Cause if I go
I'd be taking more with me
Than you would care to lose
Time is up, step it up
Or you see me walk away
Just so you know
Nothing you can do can make me turn around again
Time is up, step it up
Or you see me walk away

If we're together why you're pushing me away?
You're taking chances boy, we're getting closer to the day
You need to take a good look at yourself
Cause I'm about to close our jar
If you need a servant girl find someone else
It's time to step up

Cause if I go
I'd be taking more with me
Than you would care to lose
Time is up, step it up
Or you see me walk away
Just so you know
Nothing you can do can make me turn around again
Time is up, step it up
Or you see me walk away

Cause if I go
I'd be taking more with me than you would care to lose
Time is up, step it up
Or you see me walk away
Just so you know
Nothing you can do can make me turn around again
Time is up, step it up
Or you see me walk away

I'm sorry for the times that I made you scream
for the times that I killed your dreams
for the times that I made your whole world rumble
for the times that I made you cry
for the times that I told you lies
for the times that I watched and let you stumble

It's too bad, but that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, 'cause I, I'll never be nobody's wife

I'm sorry for the times that I didn't come home
left you lyin' in that bed alone
was flyin' high in the sky when you needed my shoulder

you're like a stone hangin' round my neck, see
cut it loose before it breaks my back, see
I've gotta say what I feel before I grow older

I'm sorry but I ain't gonna change my ways
you know I've tried but I'm still the same
I've got to do it my own way

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, I, I'll never be nobody's wife

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life

Surely I am winning but I won't
Claiming that I'll do it but I don't
Knowing I'll do anything that you want
Pretending that I am someone that I'm not

Good God, my mind won't let me thing right
I know you're trouble
But I'm determined to create these things up in my head
That never happen
In time I've got to choose
Freedom or loyalty
Look at what you have done
What am I gonna do?

So now that you have made a mess off me
You showed me stars that I have never seen
I know it's wrong why does it feel right
You haven't got me yet, but you might

Your smiling back at me I wanna do it
I wanna be with you let me get through it
But am I gonna make it back alive
Will you show me all the things that you can doooooo

Good God, my mind won't let me thing right
I know you're trouble
But I'm determined to create these things up in my head
That never happen
In time I've got to choose
Freedom or loyalty
Look at what you have done
What am I gonna do?

Yeah

Good God, my mind won't let me thing right
I know you're trouble
But I'm determined to create these things up in my head
That never happen
In time I've got to choose
Freedom or loyalty
Look at what you have done
What am I gonna do?

Yeah yeah yeah yeahhh
Yeah yeah yeah yeahhh

Yeah yeah yeah yeahhh
