Come on and lay with me Come on and lie to me Tell me you love me Say I'm the only one
Experiences have a lasting impression But words once spoken Don't mean a lot now Belief is the way The way of the innocent And when I say innocent I should say naive
So lie to me But do it with sincerity Make me listen Just for a minute Make me think There's some truth in it
Promises made for convinience Aren't necessarily What we need Truth is a word That's lost it's meaning The truth has become Merely half-truth
So lie to me Like they do it in the factory Make me think That at the end of the day Some great reward Will be coming my way
People are people So why should it be You and I should get along so awfully
So we're different colours And we're diferrent creeds And different people have different needs It's obvious you hate me Though I've done nothing wrong I've never even met you So what could I have done
I can't understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand
Help me understand
Now you're punching and you're kicking And you're shouting at me I'm relying on your common decency So far it hasn't surfaced But I'm sure it exists It just takes a while to travel From your head to your fists
Take a look at unselected cases You'll find love has been wrecked By both sides compromising Amounting to a disastrous effect
You hear stories of old Of princes bold With riches untold Happy souls Casting it all aside To take some bride To have the girl of their dreams At their side But not me I couldn't do that Not me I'm not like that I couldn't sacrifice Anything at all to love
I really like you I'm attracted to you The way you move The things you do I'll probably burn in hell For saying this But I'm really in heaven Whenever we kiss But, oh no! You won't change me You can try For an eternity I wouldn't sacrifice Anything at all to love
Now I've got things to do You have too And I've got to be me You've got to be you So take my hand And feel these lips And let's savour a kiss Like we'd savour a sip Of vintage wine One more time Let's surrender To this love divine But we won't sacrifice Anything at all to love
I want somebody to share Share the rest of my life Share my innermost thoughts Know my intimate details Someone who'll stand by my side And give me support And in return She'll get my support She will listen to me When I want to speak About the world we live in And life in general Though my views may be wrong They may even be perverted She'll hear me out And won't easily be converted To my way of thinking In fact, she'll often disagree But at the end of it all She will understand me
I want somebody who cares For me passionately With every thought and with every breath Someone who'll help me see things In a different light All the things I detest I will almost like I don't want to be tied To anyone's strings I'm carefully trying to steer clear Of those things And when I'm asleep I want somebody Who will put their arms around me And kiss me tenderly Though things like this Make me sick In a case like this I'll get away with it
Girl of sixteen Whole life ahead of her Slashed her wrists Bored with life Didn't succeed Thank the Lord For small mercies
Fighting back the tears Mother reads the note again Sixteen candles burn in her mind She takes the blame It's always the same She goes down on her knees And prays
I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humour And when I die I expect to find him laughing
Girl of eighteen Fell in love with everything Found new life In Jesus Christ Hit by a car Ended up On a life-support machine
Summer's day As she passed away Birds were singing in the summer sky Then came the rain And once again A tear fell From her mother's eye
