Tekst :
Allow me to exaggerate a memory or two
Where summers lasted longer than, longer then we do
when nothing really matter except for me to be with you
but in time we all forgotten we all grew
your melody sounds as sweet as the first time it was sung
with a little more character for show
and by the time your father’s learned of all the wrong you’ve done
then im putting out the lantern find your own way home
If I’ve forgotten how to sing before I’ve sung this song
I’ll write it all across the wall before my job is done.
and I ll even have the courtesy of admitting I was wrong.
As the final words before im dead and gone (?)
You’ve never been so divine in excepting your defeat
and I’ve never been more scared to be alone,
If love is not enough to put my enemies to sleep
then Im putting out the lantern, find your own way back home Tekst :
When Señoritas walk at night,
Habañeros on the move,
It s music to their ears in the backroom.
If there s money to be made,
And it s a hundred in the shade and in the backroom,
She s sentimental like the last
Of the foreigners running past her to the backroom.
And if things aren t sweet in Mecca
She ll be begging for forgiveness in the vacuum.
They re taking pains with California,
And they re guaranteeing boredom for the monsoon.
And apart from what was offered
There were mothers buying orphans at the auction
Youre much better off in Twos
If you re coming to see the carnage in the backroom.
Doubled over on the table
I was concentrating harder in the backroom.
Weaving in and out of consciousness
Hiding out behind the entrance to the backroom.
It took longer than expected:
They had difficulty swallowing capsules.
We had a keener nose for trouble
Than the sniffer-dogs at Heathrow --
You d be trousers down in no time in the backroom.
Almost nothing in the papers...
Told me it happened when they emptied out the backroom. Tekst :
Sure took your time
I ve been waiting here so long
But you keep tellin me
To just hold on
But now your back
But you ll be leavin me again
Oh I just want your love
But you just need a friend
And with a wounded heart
You come to me
For a best friend s advice
And sympathy
Oh if I could
Keep one heart from breakin
Keep one heart from makin
A big mistake
It d be yours
Oh if I could
Keep one heart from breakin
Keep one heart from makin
If I could keep
One heart
It d be yours
Stop standin there
Won t you open up your mind
Darlin don t you take too long
Because my heart s on the line
Just close your eyes
And think of you and I alone
And how I ve wanted you
And how my love for you has grown
If I could have one wish
I d set you free
From you holdin him
Instead of me
Oh if I could
Keep one heart from breakin
Keep one heart from makin
A big mistake
It d be yours
Oh if I could
Keep one heart from breakin
Keep one heart from makin
If I could keep
One heart
It d be yours
