1. Human Behaviour


if you ever get close to a human
and human behaviour
be ready to get confused

there´s definitely no logic
to human behaviour
but yet so irresistible

there´s no map
to human behaviour

they´re terribly moody
then all of a sudden turn happy
but, oh, to get involved in the exchange
of human emotions
is ever so satisfying

there´s no map
and a compass
wouldn´t help at all

human behaviou



2. Crying


I travel
all around the city
go in and out of
locomotives
all alone

there´s no-one here
and people everywhere

crying ´cause I need you
crying I can feel you
crying ´cause I need you
crying ´cause I care

it´s a hot day
and I´m dressed lightly
I move carefully
through the crowd
here everyone
is so vulnerable
and I´m as well

there´s no-one here
and people everywhere

crying ´cause I need you
crying I can feel you
crying ´cause I need you
crying ´cause I care

only if a ship would sail in
or just somebody came
and knocked on my door
or just (or just) something

crying ´cause I need you

crying ´cause I need you



3. Venus As A Boy


his wicked sense of humour
suggests exciting sex
his fingers focus on her
touches, he´s venus as a boy

he believes in beauty
he´s venus as a boy

he´s exploring
the taste of her
arousal
so accurate
he sets off
the beauty in her
he´s venus as a boy

he believes in beauty

he´s venus as a boy



4. There´s More To Life Than This


come on girl
let´s sneak out of this party
it´s getting boring
there´s more to life than this
it´s still early morning
we could go down to the harbour
and jump between the boats
and see the sun come up

we could nick a boat
and sneak off to this island
I could bring my little ghettoblaster
there´s more to life than this
but then we´d have to rush back
to the town´s best baker
to get the first bread of the morning
there´s more to life than this



5. Like Someone in Love


lately
I find myself
out gazing
at stars

hearing guitars
like someone
in love

sometimes
the things I do
astouned me

mostly whenever you´re
around me

lately
I seem to walk
as though
I have wings
banned into things
like someone in love

each time
I look at you
I´m laying as a cloud
and feeling
like someine
in love

sometimes the things
I do astouned me
mostly whenever
you´re
around
me

lately I seem to walk
as though
I have wings
bunned into things
like someone in love

each time I look at you
I´m laying as a cloud
and feeling
like
someone in love

like someone in love
like someone in love



6. Big Time Sensuality


I can sense it
something important
is about to happen
it´s coming up

it takes courage to enjoy it
the hardcore & the gentle
big time sensuality

we just met
and I know I´m a bit too intimate
but something huge is coming up
and we´re both included

it takes courage to enjoy it
the hardcore & the gentle
big time sensuality

I don´t know my future after this weekend
and I don´t want to

it takes courage to enjoy it
the hardcore & the gentle
big time sensuality



7. One Day


one day
it will happen
one day, one day
it will all come true

one day
when you´re ready
one day, one day
when you´re up to it

the atmosphere
will get lighter
and two suns ready
to shine just for you

I can feel it

one day
it will happen
one day, one day
it will all make sense

one day, one day
you will blossom

one day, one day
when you´re ready

an aeroplane
will curve gracefully
around the volcano
with the eruption
that never lets you down

I can feel it

and the beautifullest
fireworks will burn
in the sky just for you

I can feel it

one day
one day



8. Aeroplane


I can not live
peacefully without you
for even a moment
I miss you terribly
when you´re away

he´s away
this ain´t right
I´m alone
I´m taking an aeroplane
across the world
to follow my heart

how come
out of all the people in the world
only one
can make me complete
one word on the phone
makes me happy
but one touch directly
makes me ecstatic

he´s away
this ain´t right

I´m alone
I´m taking an aeroplane
across the world
to follow my heart



9. Come To Me


come to me
i´ll take care of you
protect you
calm, calm down
you´re exhausted
come lie down
you don´t have to explain
I understand

you know
that I adore you
you know
that I love you
so don´t make me say it
it would burst the bubble
break the charm

jump off
your building´s on fire
i´ll catch you
i´ll catch you
destroy all that is keeping you back
and then i´ll nurse you
i´ll nurse you

come to me
i´ll take care of you
you don´t have to explain
I understand



10. Violenty Happy


since I met you
this small town hasn´t got room
for my big feelings

violently happy
´cause I love you

violently happy
but you´re not here

violently happy
come clam me down
before I get into trouble

I tip-toe down to the shore
stand by the ocean
make it roar at me
and I roar back

violently happy
´cause I love you

violently happy
but you´re not here

violently happy
overemotional

violently happy
i´ll get into trouble
real soon
if you don´t get here
baby

violently happy
´cause I love you

violently happy
I´m aiming too high

violently happy
it will get me into trouble
violently happy
I´m driving my car
too fast
with ecstatic music on

violently happy
I´m getting too drunk

violently happy
I´m daring people
to jump off roofs with me

only you
can clam me down
I´m aiming too high

soothe me



11. The Anchor Song


I live by the ocean
and during the night
I dive into it
down to the bottom
underneath all currents
and drop my anchor

this is where I´m staying
this is my home

this is where I´m staying
this is my home



12. Play Dead


Darling, stop confusing me,
with your wishful thinking.
Hopeful embraces,
Don´t you understand?
Ihave to go through this,
I belong to care where no-one cares,
and no-one loves.
No light no air to live in,
a place called hate,
The City of Death.

I play dead,
It stops the hurting.
I play dead,
and the hurt stops.
Its sometimes just like sleeping,
curling up inside my private tortures.
I nestle into pain,
Huge suffering, caress every nerve

I play dead,
It stops the hurting.
