Lyrics "Against The Pain" (CD Album / 2019 )

Against the pain

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

It´s time to take a break

I know it´s not too late

To work it out again

Against the pain

 

And when I walk away

I wished that I could stay

But I have to go again

Against the pain

 

And I walk

And I walk

And I walk

I walk

 

A smile that meant so much

A hope to keep in touch

I know what will remain

Against the pain

 

And when I´m out of sight

The tears I can not hide

I have to go again

Against the pain

 

And I walk

And I walk

And I walk

I walk


21.

 

By your side

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

When I was young

feeling out of place

I heard your voice

next to me

 

And when you sang

it meant so much to me

it meant that I can be

by your side

 

Always by your side

Always by your side

 

I spent those days

in sweetest harmony

when you comfort me

with your voice

 

You guided me

you invited me

to cry with you

and to dance

 

Always by your side

Always by your side

 

You helped me to survive

you helped me to survive

Don‭‘‬t be scared

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

I can‭‘‬t sleep

I can‭‘‬t read

I can‭‘‬t hear the songs

I used to need

 

I can‭‘‬t take

the next train

I can‭‘‬t visit you

it‭‘‬s just a shame

 

It‭‘‬s okay‭ ‬-‭ ‬don‭‘‬t be scared

 

It‭‘‬s my destiny

It‭‘‬s my destiny

 

I can‭‘‬t go

for a walk

I can‭‘‬t spend the night

with you and talk

 

I can‭‘‬t spare

time to share

for the things in life

we used to care

 

It‭‘‬s okay‭ ‬-‭ ‬don‭‘‬t be scared

It‭‘‬s okay‭ ‬-‭ ‬I am not scared

It‭‘‬s okay‭ (‬it‭‘‬s my destiny‭) ‬don‭‘‬t be scared

It‭‘‬s okay‭ (‬it‭‘‬s my destiny‭) ‬I am not scared

 

It‭‘‬s okay

 

Don‭‘‬t be scared...

Happy days

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

Happy days are gone

they left me all alone

 

Happy days so sweet

they put me on my feet

 

So please don´t go

stay for a while

 

Just let me show you

how I care for your smile

 

Happy day and night

everything seem right

 

Happy on my own

now everything is gone

 

So please don´t go

stay for a while

 

Just let me show you

how I care for your smile

 

Happy days are gone

they left me all alone

all alone...

Into the dark blue sea

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

Somewhere deep inside of me

like an endless dream

I know you belong to me

it’s our destiny

 

If you wanna share this dream

come to the endless sea

this is where I long to be‭ 

in my fantasy

 

I wanna know‭ 

how you feel

I wanna go

where you go

I wanna swim

into the dark blue sea

i wanna be with you

and me

i wanna be with‭ 

and free

 

Somewhere deep inside of me

it’s no mystery

i know how It’s meant to be

it’s reality

so come share this dream with me

come to the endless sea

this is where i long to be‭ 

in my agony

 

I wanna know‭ 

how you feel

I wanna go

where you go

I wanna swim

into the dark blue sea

i wanna be with you

and me

i wanna be with‭ 

and free

Memories

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

Memories

won´t fade away

they are meant

for you to stay

 

In lonely times

you won´t forget

all those memories

inside your head

 

Memories

sweet memories

tell me please

what´s wrong

 

Memories

dark memories

everything seems gone

why don´t they leave me alone

 

Memories

can tell the time

can´t ease the pain

drive you insane

 

In lonely times

you can regret

all those memories

inside your head

 

Memories

sweet memories

tell me please

what´s wrong

 

Memories

dark memories

everything seems gone

why don´t they leave me alone

I felt a funeral in my brain

(Lyrics: Emily Dickinson / Music: Alwa Glebe)

 

I felt a Funeral, in my Brain,

And Mourners to and fro

Kept treading - treading - till it seemed

That Sense was breaking through -

 

And when they all were seated,

A Service, like a Drum -

Kept beating - beating - till I thought

My mind was going numb -

 

And then I heard them lift a Box

And creak across my Soul

With those same Boots of Lead, again,

Then Space - began to toll,

 

As all the Heavens were a Bell,

And Being, but an Ear,

And I, and Silence, some strange Race,

Wrecked, solitary, here -

 

And then a Plank in Reason, broke,

And I dropped down, and down -

And hit a World, at every plunge,

And Finished knowing - then -

High and low

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

Every day

and every night

I can hear

the storm inside

 

It makes the whole

world turn around

It makes me want

to fly

 

So I fly, I fly

so high

 

I fly so high into the sky

i fly

 

In between

time and space

I will find

the only place

 

It makes me feel

more high than low

that makes me want

to show

 

How I fly

I fly so high

I fly so high into the sky

I fly I fly so high into the sky

and than I crash

Strictly confidential

(Lyrics: Bryan Ferry / Music: Bryan Ferry)

 

Before I die I'll write this letter

Here are the secrets you must know

Until the cloak of evening shadow

Changes to mantle of the dawn

Will it be sunny then I wonder'

Rolling and turning

How can I sleep'

Hold on till morning

What if I fall'

 

Over the hills and down the valleys

Soaring aloft and far below

Lying on stony ground the fragments

Truth is the seed we tried to sow

Marking the time spent on our journey

There isn't much we have to show

Counting the cost in money only

Strikes me as funny don't you know'

Tongue tied the thread of conversation

Weighing the words one tries to use

Nevertheless communication

This is the gift you must not lose

Hauling me always are the voices

 

Tell us are you ready now'

Sometimes I wonder if they're real

We're ready to receive you now

Or is it my own imagination'

Have you any more to say'

Guilt is a wound that's hard to heal

It's a cross you have to bear

Could it be evil thoughts become me

Tell us what you're thinking now

Some things are better left unsaid

 

Magical moment

The spell it is breaking

There is no light here

Is there no key

You wear it so well

(Lyrics: Lou Reed / Music: Lou Reed)

 

All of those things,‭ ‬yeah,‭ ‬that you got to give

Yeah,‭ ‬you wear it so well

Yeah,‭ ‬you wear it so well

 

All of those stories,‭ ‬honey,‭ ‬that I know you could tell

Yeah,‭ ‬you wear it so well

And your face hides it,‭ ‬so we can't tell

That you knew,‭ ‬we would wear it so well

You war it so well

 

Yeah,‭ ‬darling,‭ ‬you wear it so well

Yeah,‭ ‬now,‭ ‬baby,‭ ‬now,‭ ‬you wear it so well

 

All of the things,‭ ‬that make poets sing

Yeah,‭ ‬you wear it so well,‭ ‬yeah

You hide it so well

 

And all of the pain,‭ ‬that you used to tell

You hide it so well

Can't tell from your face that you knew it so well

Hey,‭ ‬now,‭ ‬that you have such a story to tell

Yeah,‭ ‬you got style and grace

And you wear it so well,‭ ‬you wear it so well

And‭…

Nothing stayed the same

(Lyrics: Alwa Glebe)

 

I went to see my brother

hello how are you?

On a new years day

he past away

and nothing stayed the same

 

I went to see my sister

hello how are you?

In the morning sun

a long sleep begun

and nothing stayed the same

 

In my darkest moment

I felt for you

I could not stay

You walked away

and nothing stayed the same

 

I could not stay

and you walked away

and nothing stayed the same

 

Rhododendron in may

showed me the way

Rhododendron in snow

it´s time to go
