I’m a fool for you my love But I’ll never give hope up Oh Wait Oh Wait And Stay with me Waiting for a dream with you Let me give you all that you hope for Oh Wait Oh Wait And Stay with me Let’s go, the sun, is shining on us Let’s find a way back to love You are everything for me Oh Wait Oh Wait And stay with me Let’s go, the sun is shining on us Love that never was.....

Full Time Job 03:27
lyrics
buy track
Why don't you get a full time job? You've been hearing this for years Despite working like a dog They 'll never see it as a full time job Why don't you tell those bloody suckers You were the handsomest guy ever With your bright pink orange skin on the screen They’d still see you as a robber Get down on the floor Oh you make them feel much better They will ask for more Even if it won’t last forever Your knees to the floor Guess now who’s the winner? Why don't you get a full time job? You've been hearing this for years But you're not scared by any mirrors You've become what you wanted to be for so long This is the time We’re outta sight The story ends You can leave all your troubles behind

Lady Killer 03:03
lyrics

Yesterday goes But we’re still here as ever Today your life Has taken another way Give me your hand Follow me back to the past Let’s look around Everything’s going so fast Why don’t you feel everything’s alright, why ? Gonna show you your inner light It’s been a long time Everyday lasts forever Many years ago you looked like Lady Killer Today you can’t think about meeting someone else Step into love Let me go to your place It’s not easy for you to clearly understand I’m sure we both know how the story ends That’s the way, the story ends

Little By Little 02:24
lyrics

Beautiful and starry eyed I can see you wondering why You watch the world turning faster Into something you can understand It’s not the way you want it to be But whatever the future brings Write your story page by page and step by step In time, you will find your way Little by little lady Don’t give up today Oh go a little further away Take a look and see Oh you can trust me Even if it’s just for a while Let it go, don’t take it to heart Your doubts, they ain’t gonna last I remember the way you smiled When you looked at the sunny side Only you can you turn the key It’s not as hard as it seems to be Sister don’t grow up too soon but step by step

Miracle Days 03:51
lyrics
buy track
Raging storm Tears at dawn They will soon come by our side We’ll both fall down to the ground Still nature smiles On April lights Throwing candies to a swan We feel a ghost flying around Do you remember the days Your beautiful ways When we used to feel the same Those miracle days In the bright summer rays Why can’t we just live them again Oranges grow In the winter fast It’s nowhere but in our eyes Why can’t we go back to the past? The grass is warm Music's playing Music from a gipsy voice Do you want our golden age to be caged? Do you remember the days Your beautiful ways Let’s remember those miracle days In the bright summer rays When we used to feel the same Make up your mind, it’s just a game Why can’t we just live them again Those miracle days....

Grand Ma 03:32
lyrics

Oh Grandma I hope you're doing well in your own world I’m thinking of you, wishin I could be there.... All the moments we have shared that you don’t remember Sunny Sundays afternoons Forever, together in peace Is it meant to last? Forgive me now, I'm not with you enough I suffer from seeing your head in a cloud When I looked into your eyes, did you recognize me ? I fled like a coward To find refuge in the things I do the best Remember sunny Sundays afternoons Forever, together in peace Is it meant to last? Oh, take this song I wrote for you The only thing that I can do is to Singing for you Oh, take this song, I wrote it for you The only thing that I can do is to Singing for you Saying how much I love you I feel so bad for being away from you Want you to hear it from your white house To bring these colors inside your mind Oh grandma please Keep my letter And save this dance for me...

Take Back 03:14
lyrics
buy track
Waking up, it's time to stop You just don't want me to feel good I'm looking for a place to go A place where you'll never get to hurt me It’s raining again and you're still here Oh, why did you steal my friends? I might be wrong, illogical But I didn’t deserve such a thing Baby you won't hold me back I will never take you back The Sun is rising I won't be cryin' on the shoulders of my friends You took a big part of my life You left me broken up inside Today's the day to disappear And that's what I'm gonna do Now I have a place to go A place where you'll never ever find me Baby you won't hold me back I will never take you back No you’re not ready to see it I spend to much time saying I’m sorry You never find a way to love me I know you don’t want to see it I will make it straight to you baby Now you‘ve got a reason to leave me It’s getting very near the end This time I won’t pretend You thought I’d be lost and sad But sorry I don’t feel so bad It doesn’t matter what I loose It’s time for me to choose It’s a new start, I’m on the run For once I’m gonna have some fun Baby you won't hold me back Caus’ I will never take you back

The Way It Is 03:10
lyrics

Stand up straight And don’t stay up late six hours a night seven days a week Brush your teeth Don’t forget to smile That’s just the way it is Make sure to stay away from the noise Don't talk to strangers stay with your toys Be a good kid, the one that I’m not cause That's just the way it is Who has time for fun We wanna feel good together Don't you mind Say goodbye to the pressure It's time To give it up play with fire (time for fun) Who has time for fun We gonna get all together So come on hurry before it's over it's time for a change in the weather (time for fun) Some lemon ice cream and pineapple pie Don't even think of it, there's no use crying Santa Claus is a homeless guy That's just the way it is That's just the way it is Follow us let's run away Come on there's no need to stay Never dream your life away Why don't we go out and play?

Tricia 02:59
lyrics
buy track
Precious MILF on her high heels She speaks very loud, she looks like a chick Precious way to precious with a glass of champagne I bump into her, she knocks down her drink. If I had put it in your face, Darlin’ I Am sure you would have shut (up) your mouth. But no Ok listen Where to begin it’s time to party and you’re barking at me like a bitch Don't act so proud You Make me feel uneasy Anyway I’ll go back and fetch her Another glass of champagne It should have been far too simple The free bar is now closed... I’m an unlucky guy without money As usual

About It 04:11
lyrics

I don’t want to talk About it anymore Just let me hear your sigh and feel your touch We don't want to talk about it anymore You have rolled the dice And made a choice Hold me one more time that's all I want I know you wonder If I got the truth well you don't have to speack Look at me instead You were the only one I ever wanted I ever wanted I don’t want to hear about you anymore Just let me hold my breath and walk away I thought I’d be yours 'till the end of time Did you figure out You’d tear us apart Oh Forget me girl that’s what I want We won’t ever talk about it anymore Just need your embrace ‘till we fade away You were the only one I ever wanted
