You Built Me Up
04:22
|
|
||
when my battery was empty and the reserves were running low
you've been the recharger that filled me with energy
you aroused my weak sensors or made them completely new
you touched my heart and soul with your spirit
step by step you transformed my circuits into
a frail and colorful butterfly
a ray of bright light
you built me up a thousand times
replaced the old circuitry
you built me up a thousand times
put new life straight into me
you built me up a thousand times
so vivid and sensory
you built me up a thousand times
you are the love deep down inside of me
my attitude seemed quite strange to my fellow human beings
i couldn't show real emotion
there was no empathy but
you gave me the chance to grow
in a way that I never knew
you taught me how to break the cocoon
i will hatch soon
step by step you transformed my circuits into
a frail and colorful butterfly
a ray of bright light
you built me up a thousand times
replaced the old circuitry
you built me up a thousand times
put new life straight into me
you built me up a thousand times
so vivid and sensory
you built me up a thousand times
you are the love deep down inside of me

Beat & Strobe Light
02:57
|
|

what was i doing in this club
disco stuff always turned me off
but a minute later i found myself dancing on the floor
'cause of her
i've never been a dancer
no not until today
between this beat and strobe light
you make me stay i've never been a dancer
but i'm well on the way
between this beat and strobe light
you make me stay
moving to the music
'cause she makes me act like a marionette
to the measure of this beat
i dance in step
a puppet on her strings for tonight
i've never been a dancer
no not until today
between this beat and strobe light
you make me stay i've never been a dancer
but i'm well on the way
between this beat and strobe light
you make me stay
for one single moment it appears to me
as if we are dancing in slow motion
it's so magical
in this hypnotizing strobe light
we shine as bright as stars
i've never been a dancer
no not until today
between this beat and strobe light
you make me stay i've never been a dancer
but i'm well on the way
between this beat and strobe light
you make me stay

The Way You Are
03:52
|
|
||
at the discotheque we arranged to meet
we've danced ... talked ... drank
and i've got up the nerve to ask
would you like to go out with me sometime
and now i'm sitting here in the cinema
next to you
i'm acting like a fool, almost dumb
throwing glances at you
trying to stay cool, can't take my eyes off you
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
love at the first sight
you put a spell on me last night
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
how should i confess, when every moment is the best
explosions and gunfights ... hot pursuits ... screeching tires
i don't really care for what is on the big screen
i'm holding on tightly to the armrests
lest the butterflies take me away from you
yes i'm acting like a fool, almost dumb
throwing glances at you
trying to stay cool, can't take my eyes off you
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
love at the first sight
you put a spell on me last night
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
how should i confess, when every moment is the best
is there something wrong me
why am i hiding insecurity
because i was drunk last night
i wasn't so tongue-tied
now just one more time in thoughts
then i will shout it out
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
love at the first sight, you put a spell on me last night
i love the way you are, i love the way you are
i love the way you are, i love the way you are

I Swear
03:06
|
|
||
acrophobia
i am afraid of heights
and still a bit afraid of the big word
i want to show you how much you mean to me
saying without showing is a lie
to the top of a mountain i climb for you
this is not what i used to do
i swear
from the valley right up the top
no facilities no looking down
you are my motor and you urge me on
to express in action not in words
to the top of a mountain i climb for you
this is not what i used to do
i swear

From Orange To Red
02:39
|
|
||
i've got you babe
you've got me babe
we've got us baby
a place by the seaside
like in the movies sunshine
the sunset
from orange to red sunshine
a place by the seaside
we're holding hands and digging our toes into the sand
from orange to red
this break of dusk darling
a new beginning darling
and not an end darling
a place next to you
isn't it great honey
look towards heaven honey
this nice starry sky honey
and my place next to you
we're holding hands and digging our toes into the sand
waiting for the sunset and the glorious blaze of color that lies ahead
from orange to red
we're holding hands and digging our toes into the sand
waiting for the sunset and the glorious blaze of color that lies ahead

Perfect Constellation
03:27
|
|
||
a silent night
and only the starry sky is watching over us
so bright and clear
cassiopeia
you're the queen of my heart
we enjoy a silent love
and the stars in the sky reflect in our eyes
we enjoy a silent love
and the sea and the time are standing still all the while
you and me
hand in hand
what a perfect constellation we are
look at these distinctive stars
orion
the hunter of your heart
we enjoy a silent love
and the stars in the sky reflect in our eyes
we enjoy a silent love
and the sea and the time are standing still all the while
what a perfect constellation
we are the perfect constellation
we enjoy a silent love
and the stars in the sky reflect in our eyes
we enjoy a silent love
and the sea and the time are standing still all the while
what a perfect constellation
we are the perfect constellation
what a perfect constellation

Skin Sensations
03:47
|
|
||
skin sensations
close your eyes and feel the touch
and we never get enough
never get enough
your skin
my fingertips
our excitement in every pore
bend of the elbows
hollow of the knees
this is what we adore
follow the strokes of my hand
lay back and relax
this is the beginning
not the end
not the end
skin sensations
close your eyes and feel the touch
and we never get enough
never get enough
i am running my finger through your hair
we're so close together now
cheek to cheek
we are cheek to cheek
skin sensations
close your eyes and feel the touch
and we never get enough
never get enough

Good Morning
03:07
|
|
||
we get up early
before dawn
a good morning without a yawn
we're bright-eyed and bushy-tailed
we're singing loud about our love
a million stars in the sky above us
hand in hand we walk along our road
our road
in our city we can do what we want
show emotions and standing strong
we are part of every new born day
the rising sun will guide our way
what is the most powerful
and easiest to understand
the answer is a simple word
love
in our city we can do what we want
show emotions and standing strong
we are part of every new born day
the rising sun will guide our way
good morning

Heart's Desire
03:17
|
|
||
i take a short moment a
fleeting one for thoughts
compare our love to a candlelight
glowing in the dark
maybe a symbol or allegory
but from the bottom of my heart
bliss and tenderness ignited by a spark
this is what i was dreaming of
and my only heart's desire
time and distance will not change
that my love is a burning flame
the light was dim at first
but then it grew bright
more and more
it grew over time
for me it was love at the very first sight
i'll take care for the flame never to die
this is what i was dreaming of
and my only heart's desire
time and distance will not change
that my love is a burning flame

Where Are You Now
03:51
|
|
||
can't you hear my stomach growling
give me just a little bite
i'm starving i'm starving
can't you see i am weak and skinny
i can't live by bread alone
i need pieces of you honey
i need you i need you
i feel so alone
where are you now
you feed me on love
where are you now
my desire turned to hunger
and my ache became insatiable
i think of you every hour
minutes and seconds that go by
my desire turned to hunger
my desire turned to hunger
i need you i need you
i feel so alone
where are you now
you feed me on love
where are you now
i'm a picture of misery
i am yearning for you
i feel so alone
where are you now
you feed me on love
where are you now

Over The Borderline
03:09
|
|
||
hello my dear
where are you now
how do you do
and why don't you call
i tried to reach you
tried for so many times
i just wanted to know if my darling is fine
over the borderline
great distance and long time
tell me if you're fine
over the borderline
honey don't think i don't trust you no more
to hear your voice i was longing for
can't you hear me
this is a bad line
we'd better hang up
call me back at a later time
over the borderline
great distance and long time
tell me if you're fine
over the borderline
give me a sign
over the borderline
great distance and long time
tell me if you're fine
over the borderline

Never Let You Go
03:22
|
|
||
rays of sunshine melt the snow
i'm on my way to you
had to scrape the ice off my car windows
last night was below zero
in my mind i already hold you in my arms
i am kissing what i've been missing
i will never let you go
winter is over
a two-leaved clover
once again the blossom grows
make my way through the airport-hall
where all the passengers arrive
i take a look at the monitors
you will land in my arms undelayed
i am kissing what i've been missing
i will never let you go
winter is over
a two-leaved clover
once again the blossom grows
my eyes are searching for you
while the gates are being open
and as the crowd disappears
we see each other
i am kissing what i've been missing
i will never let you go
winter is over
a two-leaved clover
once again the blossom grows

Talk
03:36
|
|
||
day in day out the same the same
you keep silent and i complain
we almost take this for granted
ain't that a shame
relationship is not a waiting game
we don't need to be frustrated
please don't make me feel ignored
you don't need to hide your feelings
we just need to have a talk
sit down together and share our needs
exchange our thoughts
we should esteem communication
and get it on
'cause a cure for this misery
will not just come along
we don't need to be frustrated
please don't make me feel ignored
you don't need to hide your feelings
we just need to have a talk
i can feel there's something wrong with
you please talk to me
openly
honestly
'cause this might be the only way
we don't need to be frustrated
please don't make me feel ignored
you don't need to hide your feelings
we just need to have a talk
really should sit down and talk
talk

Holding Back
04:10
|
|
||
you give me a mountain to climb
all but impossible
this needs time
i need distance for a better view
to overcome it and to get through
holding back
holding back
don't hold me back
because i need to go
holding on
i keep holding on
i need to know if love still leads me
how could we drift apart
how could it come so far
now i'm really out of step
you did all this behind my back
holding back
holding back
don't hold me back
because i need to go
holding on
i keep holding on
i need to know if love still leads me
this guilty lie
this stab in my back
how shall i shrug it off
i need to know if i still can trust you
i don't want to loose my faith in you
holding back
holding back
don't hold me back
because i need to go
holding on
i keep holding on
i need to know if love still leads me

Human Says I Love You
03:38
|
|
||
yesterday's moments and its joy and grief
reflected in my heart like fallen leaves
sensors were arouses and circuits were transformed
then enlightened by a greater force
human says i love you
i love you
the human says i love you
i love you
autumn's leaves have been swept away
and winter turned to spring and finally
out of the cocoon the butterfly spread its wings
blaze of color filled the sky
human says i love you
i love you
the human says i love you
i love you
emotions will be felt forever
it is love that will last forever
turned to blossoms sown by you
the human says says i love you
human says i love you
i love you
the human says i love you
i love you
love will last forever
