Don't cry (when I'm gone)
Are you there?
I think I heard you calling
my name across the river
your feelings bare
But I'm going, yeah
I'm going now
CHORUS:
Hey, darling
don't you cry when I'm gone
after all I was just
another shadow before the sun
So do you know
what's behind that horizon?
I can't sleep
I've gone too deep
my actions beyond redemption
Can't forget while I'm here
CHORUS
The ship'll be away soon
and I just want you to know
that my heart is bonded
with the crystal lagoon
of the tears you've shed
all because of me
CHORUS
Ablaze
A: Dancing on the street
in the middle of the staring crowd
I look stupid, I know
but it makes me feel so proud
this feeling of absolute freedom
A1: I'm hoping against all odds
that you would finally see me
so, yeah, I'm losing my touch
and my frail grip on reality
CHORUS:
In my life there's one thing sure
I'm just your ordinary girl
completely plain and dull
But this music makes me beautiful
yeah, it makes me feel alive
A2: Most of the time
I really don't feel like smiling
but when I'm with you and hear these songs
I'm sure I could rise high, flying
CHORUS x 2
C: I have a rhythm in my blood
this voice was made to sing
For a moment, forget everything
and let me take you with me
to a world somewhere far above
The music of the pyre
CHORUS:
She burns
she burns so bright
and in the dark of the night
her screams of terror haunt me
A1:
Another day
another prayer
endless long hours of hiding in fear
too many people
who have seen what you are
repeat CHORUS
A2:
Another night
another victim to the pyre
Will it ever stop
will you see tomorrow?
And you hear it
repeat CHORUS
A3:
Knocking at your door
they're here, you know
with their torches and blades
and mad, mad eyes
And you run
repeat CHORUS x 2
But you already know the truth
Red Suitcase
CHORUS:
The red suitcase and the
blue suede shoes
I'm on the road again
A1:
Searching for my soul
in hidden crooks, shadowy corners
I can't seem to find myself
and when the moon is my only company
I feel like I'll break and fade
Don't know where I'm going
don't know where I'll be when tomorrow comes
if it comes at all
A2:
You call, but I hang up
can't bear to face you today
Do you believe that my heart is aching
to see you run and hide
every day from my eyes
I know it's hard to be with me
but I just can't stay anymore
CHORUS:
The red suitcase and the
blue suede shoes
I'm on the road again
A3:
I'm on the road again
(red suitcase and blue suede shoes)
I'm on the road again
(red suitcase)
(blue suede shoes)
on the road again
on the road again
I think I'm going home
Made immortal, soulmates in sorrow
Written for and inspired by [
Teufelsweib]
CHORUS:
We should have been
made immortal
soulmates in sorrow
our legend passing down
to the children of tomorrow
A1:
As we laid down on the grass
side by side, facing the sun
for the very last time
I couldn't help but feel
this piercing, poignant agony
I had my answer from you
a long time ago
and I can't say
why it's so hard for me
to let it go
CHORUS:
We should have been
made immortal
soulmates in sorrow
our legend passing down
to the children of tomorrow
A2:
It was your smile
that once captured me
so innocent, somehow
yet I knew you would be
impossible to control
Like one of those plays
we used to read, remember
like Romeo and Juliet
it's how I think of us
now when all is over
CHORUS:
We should have been
made immortal
soulmates in sorrow
our legend passing down
to the children of tomorrow
A3:
Only for you, my love
I would give up
all of my façades
but it just wasn't enough
no, not enough
You were like the wind
never still, never calm
but I still wait for you to come
miraculously, somehow
from wherever you've gone
CHORUS:
We should have been
made immortal
soulmates in sorrow
our legend passing down
to the children of tomorrow
C:
But now I lie here alone
listening to the night
and remembering you
how you touched me, so deeply
yet never stayed to say
You never stayed to say
good night
Stumble!
