Lovers
Lovers
Be silent now
The night is over
and I want to sleep
Lovers
Lovers
Please be silent now
The day is beginning to show
I want to be a part of it
I want to see you
In the bright light
and the warmth of the day
Hey lovers
May your dreams come true now
I'll be watching
Watching over you
Lovers
Lovers
Be silent now
I hear your whispers
Your whispers are so loud
Lovers
Lovers
Be silent now
The night is over - over
and I need to rest
More than you do
an when i'm gone you'll say you never noticed
the colour of my eyes
that special way i dance
the things i said at night
the way i took your hand
letters i used to send
you never noticed my love for you had no end
In the night you understand
in the sun your smiles are faked
the reasons why we should pretend
well in time you'll understand
so keep in mind that you are safe
i'll never let you go insane
everyone here but you is to blame
if you don't get it just stop thinking
then in time you'll understand
trust me
Sex is the only reason why
people walk by holding hands
Look at them walking to the streets of life
I might as well stay alone tonight
I'll stay alone tonight
I will stay alone tonight
But don't you stay alone tonight
You'll be drinking in the dead of night
You'll be drifting in the dead of night
You'll be smoking every cigarette you have
You'll be smoking every cigarette you have
You'll be missing all the love that you lost
You'll be missing all the love that you lost
You'll be wishing you were dead tonight
You'll be wishing you were dead tonight
So don't you stay alone tonight
You'll hate the way they are
but if you dance with them you're in love again
i might as well
you might as well
stay alone tonight
we will stay alone tonight
You'll be drinking in the dead of night
You'll be drifting in the dead of night
You'll be smoking every cigarette you have
You'll be smoking every cigarette you have
You'll be missing all the love that you lost
You'll be missing all the love that you lost
You'll be wishing you were dead tonight
You'll be wishing you were dead tonight
So don't you stay alone tonight
I've never seen this hotel
nor this room nor thoses faces
do you still look the same
like the you in the picture frame
something tells me something's gone wrong
this feeling inside of me and this silence for far too long
I've never been in this town
nor this street nor theses houses
are you still awake
does the ghost in your head make you shake
something tells me something's gone wrong
this feeling inside of me and this silence for far too long
Do you remember when we were lovers
it was a summer like no other
we used to think this would last forever
forever
we used to live another life
in different times & different places
different people with different faces
i used to love you as much as you did
Someone once said to me
how can you be so unhappy
can't you see you're lucky to be alive
alive
but what if i cannot escape
this feeling i can't escape
but what if i failed in my life
what if i fucked my whole life
and no one can comfort me in my lovelife
can i love life
how can i love life
will i love life
should i love life
love life
Winter's like the tears of a widow,
looking at the sun from a window,
when the show's over just let me know.
Winter's hidden in the shadows
in the back row of a sentimental show,
when the crying's over just let me go
