Sittin’ on top of a hill
Satisfied with my inner will
Easily done
In this moment
On this run

Down in the same old valley still
Kepping up my inner spirit
Don’t need no gun
Throw my weapons away
For this run

At this moment
At this time
I feel fine
At this time
I’m alive
Alive and vell

In this city you can die a little
But I won’t be the one feeling bitter
Hard times come
Don’t worry me none
On this run

At this moment
At this time
I feel fine
At this time
I’m alive
Alive and well

And should I stumble upon a shade of blue
I’d just put on my plain old shoes
And walk on
And get things done
Yeah, just walk on

Walk on until you find your missing piece
Until your mind’s at ease
You can’t change what’s been
Or wipe away
All the things
That you have seen

Here today in this moment
With this urge to follow
To the end and on
My friends
On this run

At this moment
I feel fine
At this time
I’m alive
And well
And well
And well

I see it written everywhere
Like it’s the easiest word to say
But I’ve had enough of this affair
It’s tearing me apart day by day

They tell you not to worry
All your hopes will be fullfilled
But this is something I can’t carry
On my shoulders

It’s just so hard to love
Is there something wrong with me?
Is it something I’m unworthy of?
I’m lost in this never ending sea
Of lying
Crying
Denying
Where we
Could be
Happy

You said you’d stand behind me
Through all the pain and sorrow
You said that we where gonna’ be
In love way beyond tomorrow

They tell you not to worry
All your hopes will be fullfilled
But this is something I can’t carry
On my shoulders

It’s just so hard to love
Is there something wrong with me?
Is it something I’m unworthy of?
I’m lost in this never ending sea
Of lying
Crying
Denying
Where we
Could be
Happy

Someone new comes along
Suddenly there’s a place where you belong
But day by day you fall shorter
Of that first innocent dream

It’s just so hard to love
Is there something wrong with me?
Is it something I’m unworthy of?
I’m lost in this never ending sea
Of lying
Crying
Denying
Where we
Could be
Happy

Nobody is at home
I can’t describe the feeling
You left me all on my own
Now i need some time for healing

Why must you leave without a word
All that I longed for and adored

Will never come true
I don’t know what to do
‘Cause it’s hard breaking the chains
Of Emotional Pain

Everybody tries to say
That time will heal the suffering
They say take it day by day
Find a new song to sing

Now you got to get rid of
What was once a burning love

Will never come true
I don’t know what to do
‘Cause it’s hard breaking the chains
Of Emotional Pain

It’s hard breaking the chains
(Find some spirit)
It’s hard breaking the chains
(Find some hope)
Break the chains
And the strain
Of Your Emotional Pain

Sleepless
Another night struggling for some sleep
Another night of counting sheep
I lay down my weary head to rest
But my mind seems to
Paint pictures at best
And by the sounds inside of my mind
I go to where all beauty is confined
Where memories of the future stay

I’m sleepless
During the
Break of day

Sleepless
Stuck inside the memories of old
Stuck in the restlessness taking hold
I open up my eyes yet again
Maddened by this curse
Driving me insane
I long for serenity someday
Just finding that place to fade away
But it’s so very out of sight

I’m sleepless
During the
Long dark night

I’m constantly tired
I tell you
My senses are
Too wired up to
Find a simple
Little dream to stay
In my uneasy head
Every day
I don’t know if
I can recover
Perhaps the
Soft touch of a lover
Or a little help
From the doctor
Can get what’s lost
To reappear

Sleepless
Time to rise up and face the new day
Time to get up in some kind of way
For nothing more than a lousy dime
That won’t buy my need
If you can’t sell time
There is nothing left to do but pray
Lost and confused on this long way
Trying to cope with this in vain

I’m sleepless
I need to
Dream again

No sun is shining
No love is found
Only teardrops on my cheek
And I’m on a losing streak

For quite a while now
For a long long time
Anger and despair haunt me
And I need too be set free

Free from the lies
Free from deceit
I want to feel my heart beat

I’m climbing the mountain of hope
Through these hard times I’ve got to cope
I’m climbing the mountain of hope
Searching for you
To make my dreams come true

I’ve taken some punches
I’ve been on the ground
Wasting love in the wrong places
Only finding hopeless cases

Is it really that hard
Is the well so deep
If it’s not you it’s me
And I need to be set free

Free from the lies
Free from deceit
I want to feel my heart beat

I’m climbing the mountain of hope
Through these hard times I’ve got to cope
I’m climbing the mountain of hope
Searching for you
To make my dreams come true

I’m climbing
(Don’t lose hope)
I’m climbing
(I hope I can cope)

Keep on climbing
You got to keep climbing
Ain’t no use crying
No use hiding
Just keep on climbing

I’m climbing the mountain of hope
Through these hard times I’ve got to cope
I’m climbing the mountain of hope
Searching for you
To make my dreams come true

I just want to be in your company
You’ve got a way of giving me serenity
When we’re together
I feel so much better

Well I still remember that first night
A chaotic stroll with delight
Since then I always knew
I’d be a fool for you through and through

I wanna’ be in your arms
Keep you close at all times
And never treat you wrong
You’re so calm and your heart is so warm
I wanna’ be in your arms
My heart it yearns
I wanna’ be in your arms

I can remember our each and every time
In good times ‘n’ bad you give me peace of mind
I never want to leave your side
And I’ve got nothing to hide

When I’m on the road again
So far away from you my friend
I can’t get you off of my mind
And I can’t feel fine
Until I return
Back in your arms

I hope the day never comes dear
The day when you may disappear
But I guess you never know
I hate the thought of having to let you go

I wanna’ be in your arms
Keep you close at all times
And never treat you wrong
You’re so calm and your heart is so warm
I wanna’ be in your arms
My heart it yearns
I wanna’ be in your arms

When I’m on the road again
So far away from you my friend
I can’t get you off of my mind
And I can’t feel fine
Until I return
Back in your arms

I wanna’ be in your arms
Keep you close at all times
And never treat you wrong
You’re so calm and your heart is so warm
I wanna’ be in your arms
My heart it yearns
I wanna’ be in your arms

The days keep on a-flying by
Happens so easily when you’re high
If I were a professor, I’d teach
And if I were a reverend, I’d preach
But I’m nothing but a simple guy
I like to sit by the river and watch the blue, blue sky

Time moves on like a rocket ship
It’s never slow, always so very quick
If I were a doctor, I’d heal the sick
Or a construction worker, I’d lay down those bricks
I’m just hoping for something good to pass by
For now I just sit by the river and keep watching the blue, blue sky

I’ve got my beliefs just like everybody I guess
I’m like you and you’re like me, more or less
Good times, bad times they come visit us all
How do you live with joy when it’s so easy to fall
Don’t ask me, I don’t know much about it
I find it so hard to commit, admit and submit
To the confined limits of reality
The breeding ground of insanity

There’s so much space here to be filled
Many have fought over it, a lot have been killed
If I were a soldier, I’d fight for peace
Were I an adventurer, I’d search for the golden fleece
Still I’m just this unsound, broke down tall guy
And I just sit by the river and keep watching the blue, blue sky

This land that’s supposed to be yours and mine
Is ravaged by those who only help their own kind
If I were a sculptor, I’d carve these words in stone
Were I a rebel, I’d make the oppressors get off their thrones
What is there to do when no one hears your cry
I just sit by the river and keep watching the blue, blue sky

You may feel all right with your houses and cars
Sometimes I wonder if I can feel something at all
Serenity is what I’ve been looking for all my life
Not easy when you’re troubled with other folks strife
Those who may never cut the rope that binds them down
That’s why I walk around with a frown in this town
On the verge of going delirious
With my lingering weariness

Off I go walking down the same old road
Keepin’ on carrying my heavy inner load
If I was an explorer, I’d travel to the milky way’s stars
A human in search of the far away beautiful worlds
But I’m stuck on this rock and thereby
I sit by the river and keep watching the blue, blue sky
Perhaps someday I’ll defy it all and let fly my weary sigh
‘Til then I sit by the river and keep watching the blue, blue sky
