We’ll be washed and buried one day my girl
And the time we were given will be left for the world
The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plague
So let the memories be good for those who stay

And if your strife strikes at your sleep
Remember spring swaps snow for leaves
You’ll be happy and wholesome again
When the city clears and sun ascends

And my head told my heart
„Let love grow”
But my heart told my head
„This time no”

Wszystkie na ciele znaki
Zapis bezcennych chwil
Jak z pamiętnika kartki
Kropek i kresek szyfr
Mapa wspomnień i krętych dróg
Szkielet utwardza mi
W klatce z kości mięsień wiotki
Pulsuje, przyspiesza rytm

To początek, wschód słońc
I drżenie w kącikach ust
Wielkie oczy ma strach
Palcem pogrożę mu

Walczą we mnie lwy, walczy zgraja psów
Moje myśli dziś jak po linie chód
Widzę słońca dwa, jak rozpoznać mam
Gdzie prawdziwy a gdzie odbity blask?

Oh well in 5 years time, we could be walking round a zoo,
With the sun shining down over me and you,
And there’ll be love in the bodies of the elephants too,
I’ll put my hands over your eyes, but you’ll peek through.

‘Cos I’ll be laughing at all your silly little jokes,
And we’ll be laughing about how we used to smoke,
All of those stupid little cigarettes and drink stupid wine,
‘Cos it’s what we needed to have a good time.

But it was fun, fun, fun- when we were drinking,
It was fun, fun, fun- when we were drunk,
And it was fun, fun, fun- when we were laughing,
It was fun, fun, fun- Oh it was fun.

Oh well, I’ll look at you and say:
It’s the happiest that I’ve ever been.
And I’ll say: I no longer feel I have to be James Dean.
And she’ll say: Yeah well, I feel all pretty happy too, and I’m always pretty happy, when I’m just kicking back with you.

And it’ll be love, love, love- all through our bodies,
And love, love, love- all through our minds,
And it’ll be love, love, love- all over her face,
And love, love, love- all over mine.

And though nearly all these moments are just in my head,
I’ll be thinking about them, as I’m lying in bed,
And I know that really it might not even come true,
But in my mind, I’m having a pretty good time with you.

Oh, in 5 years time- I might not know you,
In 5 years time- we might not speak,
In 5 years time- we might not get along,
In 5 years time- you might just prove me wrong.

There are very many things
I would like to say to you,
but i’ve lost my way
and I’ve lost my words.
There are very many places
I would like to go
but I can’t find the key
to open my door.

The weight of my words-
you can’t feel it anymore.
The weight of my words-
you can’t feel it anymore.

I’ve got desperate desires and unadmirable plans
My tongue will taste of gin and malicious intent

You laugh at every word trying hard to be cute
I almost feel sorry for what I’m going to do
And your hair smells of smoke
Who will cast the first stone?
You can sin or spend the night all alone

Every now and then
I get a little bit nervous
that the best of all the years have gone by

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I’m only falling apart
There’s nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

You look so defeated lying there in your new twin size bed.
With a single pillow underneath your single head.
I guess you decided that that old queen holds more space than you would need.
Now it’s in the alley behind your apartment with a sign that says it’s free.

You used to think that someone would come along.
And lay beside you in a space that they belong.
But the other side of the mattress and box springs stayed like new.
What’s the point of holding onto what never gets used?

The day I learn to fly , I’m never coming down
on perfect wings I’ll rise through the layers of the clouds

and from here I see the neon grids of cities
and six million people that keep their fires lit

And I threw a party in my name
but the hours crawled by and no one came
so I bowed my head and I prayed for wings
to take me from this place… from you
