If not now

Your own life
Is in your hands
This, you gotta understand
The moment has arrived
It’s close at hand
If not now, then when?
If not now, then when
When will we make it happen?
If not now, then when when when?
I hear the sound of the multitude
Women, children, men
Down in the streets to claim what’s theirs
And the rumour’s spreading
All across the land
If not now, then when?
Tomorrow could be the day
When we all stand
And join together hand in hand
There’s a new day dawning
There might be no second chance
So if not now, then when?

Rise and shine
And smile away the tears of yesterday night
Get dressed up
Have a coffee cup
There’s no more time to waste for the sun’s already up
It’s a perfect day
A perfect day
To make the whole world listen to what we have to say
We can have it all
Have it our own way
We can be who we want to be
Only for a day
We can have it all
Have it our own way
You and I could be King and Queen
Only for a day
You and I
See eye to eye
And it feels like we could almost touch the sky
The feeling’s strong
So strong
Sometimes we think this might last till Kingdom Come
So come on now
Wear the crown
The shiny crown of love that we have just found

The situation

She says I can’t stand
The situation
The situation
Anymore
I can’t stand
Being with him
Being with him
Anymore
That’s why I take
Those sleeping pills
They make me numb
They make me clean
So let me take
Those sleeping pills
It’s only time they kill
They kill
I can’t stand
The situation
The situation
Anymore
It tears me up
But I don’t love him
No I don’t love him
Anymore
I can’t stand
The situation
The situation
Anymore
No I can’t stand
The situation
The situation
Anymore

Broken
03:30
|
|||
We never thought that the day would come
When we would come undone
Take a look at what we’ve become
Never thought this day could ever be
The last for you and me
We should have known better, you see
Comforting words are hard to find
There’s more to this than meets the eye
Can’t you see, everything is broken
And everything just falls apart
Our broken homes, our broken hearts
Can’t you see, everything is broken
Never thought the night would fall so fast
And here we are at last
But don’t you know we’re going nowhere fast?
We never thought this could be the end
And now that this is the end
Can you tell me where we stand?

Call it a day
04:03
|
|||
I’ve been walking through this town
Looking for you in everyone I found
They shrug their shoulders, shake their heads and frown
It seems you have disappeared somehow
Let us just call it a day
I guess there’s nothing more to say
The sun goes down
You’re nowhere to be found
Let us just call it a day
The morning sun found me up again
Like a mad dog let loose among the men
Howling at their shadows as they stand
Trying to figure out what he can’t understand

The letter
03:48
|
|||
I found your letter the other day
Some words had already worn away
Regretful lines
Faded in time
Which I barely remember today
I read your letter the other day
The love you swore, the promises you made
Regretful lines
That made me smile
And made me snigger all the same
I’m sorry for what I have done
Now I know I was wrong
Please remember if you can
Maybe we can start again
I burnt your letter the other day
It may sound sad but I have to say
That all in all
It makes no difference at all
I don’t recall who you were anyway
We won’t start again…

Blackblood/Blackheart
03:39
|
|||
Black blood, black heart
Your love is tearing me apart
Black blood, black heart
Your love is tearing me apart
I know all my loving’s wasted on you
I know you feel the same way too
I need no explanation
For your infatuation
But I’m no longer the person
You want
They say blood is thicker
It’s thicker than water
But your love is even stronger
It’s true
I know this love is danger
I’ve seen how its power
Has grown and taken over
Over you
Bad blood is between us
And I’m sick of all the fuss
Makes me wanna give up on lust
Today
I knew it from the start
I wasn’t meant to play that part
Still I don’t have the heart
To go away
Black blood, black heart
Your love is tearing me apart
Black blood, someday
My love I’m gonna make you pay

On the phone
03:41
|
|||
Remember the hours we spent
On the phone
Talking, laughing, sighing, then
All alone
Together and apart
With so much in our hearts
All the hours spent on the phone
It all seemed so simple then
On the phone
But all good things come to an end
And I should have known
I let our love go by
Happiness was on the line
Now I have none to call my own
And I know
Time is slipping by
I think of you and I
Try to smile not to cry
I wish I still could call you my friend
Like everyone
Wish I could make love again
Like anyone
I wish I had more time
I wish I could say that I’m fine
Honey, you are still the one
Remember the hours we spent
(‘Seemed so simple on the phone)
Talking, laughing, sighing, then
(Now it’s done I’m all alone)

You had it coming
04:14
|
|||
So
Now you see
But you know
You’re not ready
Don’t tell me
They did not tell you so
Cause they warned you
Long ago
But you were just too busy
Making the same mistakes
Wearing that luring smile
On your face
Now it’s time
To face the facts
The consequences of your acts
And there won’t be smiles any longer
You had it coming! You had it coming!
You had it coming! You had it coming!
And now
There’s nothing you can do about it!
Yeah
Deep down inside
You must have known
You had nowhere left to hide
This time
And no
Matter how hard they tried
It was never enough
For what you had in mind
And you were just too busy
Making the same mistakes
And now that you should prove yourself
Well, you haven’t got what it takes
Now it’s time
To face the facts
The consequences of your acts
And there won’t be smiles any longer
So
Now you see
But you know
You’re not ready
Don’t tell me
They did not tell you so
Cause they warned you
Long ago

Let the sun
04:34
|

“I’ve always loved those autumn days”
So you said
“When the cold wind sweeps away
All that is dead”
Well, I don’t see things your way
I’ve grown tired of all the rain
And now I long for something sweeter
Who am I to tell you so
I don’t know
Who am I to tell you so
“There’s nothing good in humankind”
So you said
“Hope has gone and left us behind
And love is dead”
I wish I could change your mind
Make you see things in a different light
Maybe you could love me better
Who are you to treat me so
I don’t know
Who are you to treat me so
I don’t know
Let the sun into your life
Let the moon change your mind
Let the stars fall into
Your eyes
I wish I could change your mind
Make you see things in a different light
Maybe you could love me better
Who am I to tell you so
I don’t know
Who am I to tell you so
I don’t know
Won’t you change your mind?
Please, change your mind
Won’t you change
Your mind

Ship in a storm
04:21
|
|||
There’s no need to speak
I know how you feel
People come and go
Some bruises never heal
I know that it hurts
And it hurts a lot
When your heart is dead
And you are not
Don’t say you’re sorry
Don’t apologize
You can’t stop those tears
Running from your eyes
I can take it all
I know how you feel
I know you must feel
Like a ship caught in a storm
Like a baby, newly born
Like a king without a throne
Like the stars that fade away before the dawn
So alone
Everybody aches
I guess I know the score
Cause I’ve been through this
A few times before
But there’s one more thing
You should know by now
Even though, somehow
You feel
Like a ship caught in a storm
Like a baby, newly born
Like a king without a throne
Like the stars that fade away before the dawn
Like a letter that’s been torn
Like a shape without a form
Like a kid without a home
And nothing he can even simply call his own
But you’re not alone
You’re not alone
