Don't touch happiness Don’t touch happiness Don't touch love, cause it could have lice and they'd crawl on you the whole day through. Don’t touch happiness Don't touch love, cause it could have calories, they'd make you fat, make you feel bad. Don’t touch happiness Don't touch love, cause it could have germs, they' d poison you through and through. Don’t touch happiness

She's your dream of a woman and she guesses all your secret dreams. She's your dream of a woman and she promises the sweetest things. The happiness she gives you is truly oh so nice but, if you call her "Mama", she'll charge an extra prize. The way she treats you is incomparable, whatever you need she'll understand. The way she treats you is nearly unbearable. The way she spoils you makes you feel grand. The happiness she gives you…

My way (that’s no way) I’ ve got no home so I can’t go where life leads me. I’ ve got no sister and no one who needs me. I never was young so I can’t get older. I never was warm so I can’t get much colder. My mother tried to kill me but I never could leave her. She tells me I’m a fool sometimes it’s hard to believe her. I am a loser, I don’t want to be a winner. I would like to be a saint, everyone is a sinner. Well, isn’t that funny, I always feel hungry. I’ve got no home But I can’t go where life leads me. Everyone has his own way but my way that’s no way. Isn’t that funny but I am still hungry. I’ve got no home but I can’t go where life leads me. Everyone has his own way but my way that’s no way but my way that’s no way.

Lost finger I can't give you back your long-lost finger, I can't give you back your long-lost finger. Nothing will replace your long-lost finger, I can't bring you back your long-lost finger. All the things you might have done and all the things you'd just begun. You're sitting here and speak so long about the things that went so wrong. I can't give you back…. You're sitting here and speak so long about the things that went so wrong. All the things I should have done, no matter how I struggle and how I run. I can't give you back…

Killers in heaven Yesterday the killers were in heaven, yesterday the killers were in heaven, yesterday. Yesterday they stole the heat out of my jacket, it’s twenty below now. My face is not the same anymore, my soul has changed. In four seconds it turned into ice. Now I can’t touch you anymore, I can’t even feel myself anymore. Yesterday there was no question to be, I had twelve eyes to see. Yesterday changing the planets was easy like surfing the channels. Now I’m not so sure anymore, I can’t touch you anymore, I can’t even feel myself anymore.

Birthday Chant What a nice day for your birthday, watch the early morning light. What a nice day and the ending of a deep and lonely night. Listen to the old birds singing, watch the shining morning light. What a nice day! Let your birthday be the first day of the rest of your life.. Let all striving left behind you. Sing an old forgotten song! Watch the queen of hearts beside you – Did she guide you here for long? What a nice day for your birthday, Watch the shining morning light. What a nice day. Let your birthday be the first day of the rest of your life.

Where are you now One moment, it seemed as though you were falling asleep. Some say, it's more like being really awake. You said, the tie would never break. But with which eyes could I see you? and with which ears could I hear you? And how is the weather on the other side of time? Tell me, how and tell me: Where are you now? Is the weather always fine on the other side of time? Tell me now and tell me: Where are you now?

Phantom Pain 04:38
Phantom pain Sometimes a part of the body that’s long been lost or surgically removed causes lots of pain. And deep in the breast, where a heart was it can be the most excruciating, doctors call it phantom pain, but it passes, passes in time. All that it takes are some sorrowful dreams, then everything is back in balance, it takes time, time, only time. It takes, time, time. Sometimes a part of the body that’s long been lost or surgically removed hearts too much to bear.

Das Lied vom einsamen Mädchen Sie herzte sanft ihr Spielzeug, bevor sie es zerbrach und hatte eine Sehnsucht und wusste nicht, wonach. Weil sie einsam war und so blond ihr Haar und ihr Mund so rot wie Wein. Und wer von diesem Wein trank, konnt’ nie mehr glücklich sein. Doch einer sprach im Frühling: „Auch du fühlst Lust und Schmerz“ und brach ihr tausend Rosen, doch sie brach nur sein Herz. Weil sie einsam war und so blond ihr Haar und ihr Mund so rot wie Wein. Und keine konnt’ so küssen und doch so einsam sein. Was blieb von ihrem Leben: Ein Lied, das niemand sang. Sankt Peter ließ sie warten zwei Ewigkeiten lang. Weil sie einsam war und so blond ihr Haar und ihr Herz so tot wie Stein. Dann rief er: „Armes Kind, komm, sollst nie mehr einsam sein!“

Talk to me 03:42
Talk to me Talk to me, tell me, only me. Give it sound, let it be heard. Cause I know the storms that rage in you. No one can you ever trust. But me, you need just look in the eye and that’s why let me know. You can give yourself away, but your deepest secrets, you have to keep them all for me. Promise me, tell nobody but me, tell me, only me, give it sound, let it be heard, sag’s nur mir. Nur mir, let me know, give it sound, let it be heard.

When lonely feelings chill the meadows of your mind, just think if winter comes, can spring be far behind? Beneath the deepest snows the secret of a rose is merely that it knows you must believe in spring! Just as a tree is sure its leaves will reappear; It knows its emptiness is just a time of year. The frozen mountain dreams of April’s melting streams, how crystal clear it seems, you must believe in spring! You must believe in love and trust it’s on its way, just as the sleeping rose awaits the kiss of May. So in a world of snow, of things that come and go, where what you think you know, you can’t be certain of you must believe in spring and love.
