Not married anymore once upon a time I had a girl and made her mine she was great and I did everything to win she was rough and she was sweet not like anyone you'd meetnow I wish I wasn't married anymore. We talked deep and travelled far built a home and bought a car had two kids and swore forever was our shore. It was tough at times it's true but we dug in and pulled through now I wish I wasn't married anymore. She had this thing she couldn't stand seeing women with her manbe it collegues, friends or strangers passing by It went from cold to hard and bad filling all the time we had having talks and seeing shrinks, we had a try. It got cluttered, it went cold, it was mean and it was cruelit was something I don't wish for anyone. We went following the curse with each day a gettin' worse I just wished i wasn't married anymore. Even after years of hurt, after throwing 'round the dirt we thought love could lead us through these stormy seas. It was vain and did no good we did things we never should we both wished we wasn't married anymore. The things she threw at me could be anything, you see did not hurt half as much as what she said. I was trying to recall the time we had a ball searching shelter I had no wish to die. To end this tale of woe there's much more as you will know it is over and I'm free and feeling fine. The page is turned and hope's come home I look forward and I roam I'm so happy, I'm not married anymore.

You have to ask yourself just once. You have to go below your face to find a shadow of truth. You have to see through all these lies seeing through the easy tales, below the love gone stale Below beyond belief. Below beyond your grief. You have to open up your heart You have to open up your mind. There is no easy way to cope oh no, it would have been known. You have to take yourself head on going through each hard fought round taking beats and going down.Below beyond your belief to find the words of relief, of relief. A single day This has been a very long divorce what took so long? What took so long? Did we need to stretch the pain so far? You never wanted me at all Not a single day Still we went through years of married lifeIt seemed so right. It seemed so right. Building up a home took all our time We thought we loved this life. Every single day! I know that I tried and I know that I cared I tried but always failed. Now I know I couldn't change the track that we were so determined to follow. Now we have to face this end of love it is so sad. It is so sad. This is when we end the life we shared we thought forever, but no: It was just a single day. It was just a single day. At the end of a rope You never can tell if this is heaven or hellyou live among angels at the bottom of a wellyour nose hits the dirt as you hear the bellyou've lost another big dealnow there's nothing more to sell You lived upon your status you knew you were uniqueyou were born among the stronghad only scorn for the weakthe great big city artist now is revealed to be a freakthere's no more magic karmayour importance is disappearing as we speak The future full of promiseshas emptied it's hornno gypsy woman told your motherthe day you were bornthat the boy child at her bosom was a son of a gunyou were just another jokernow you're on your toes and run. You thought you'd own housesin every country on the globeyou thought among your friends you'd count a king and a popethe great shining future was all vanity and hopeyou're just another apemanswinging at the end of a rope. Maybe this is all that was meant to benot only for youbut also for them and for meI guess that it will never be too late to seethat everyone's making the best of itwhile trying to be free. What kind of a world Hey! What kind of a world is this? I don't understand anything at all. We have all been trapped in a tragedy a nightmare with no hope of escape. Hey, Have we reached the end of all we know? Have we gone too far killing of our star? Is the final show a tragedy a nightmare with no one to applaud? I don't see no way to get out maybe I don't know where to look. I dream of being amazed of someone proving me wrong. Hey, what kind of a world is this No one feels at ease, no one feels at home the wrong ones reach the top in this irony, this masquerade in this sad and old worn out world in this sad and old worn out world. Thanks for the fight I know it's nothing compared to the pain we saw the misery in the world all around made our dance around pride and a broken heart seem so small, so banal so vain. Your words were so hard your eyes so cold compared to what I'd known before what came out of your mouth would not hold up in court they were words meant to kill and dispose. All through the day all through the night I long to hear you say: "It was good being with you thanks for the fight. We seemed to live on planets apart not a word meant the same here as there I said: "let us both save our skin and go on" you thought I was pointing a gun. I want to be your friend you want to see me dead but why after all these years Why blame me for life's passing why blame at all. A time has come and gone. All through the day all through the night I long to hear you say: "It was good being with you thanks for the fight. So take a deep breath and start looking ahead at the pleasures you'll meet on your way not with me that's for sure but with somebody new more worthy than me for you. All through the day all through the night I long to hear you say: "It was good being with you thanks for the fight. This is the day It is up to you if anything's gonna be between us at all anything at all you have to decide now one of these days one of these days If the time has come you'd better not hesitate you cannot trust fate never trust fate it's all your decision if we will be if we will be. Is it all or not? you can't pretend anymore that it is not you that has to choose what to do you have to decide now this is the day this is the day Hollow old bone What were you thinking when you served me the deal?What went through your head as you turned on your heel?”Get out of my life, please. The ”please” is just polite.I want you gone arrivederci, get out of my sight.” I counted the stars as I looked to the skythe numbers seemed right when I started to cry.You swallowed my pride and spit out the stone.Left me here without marrow a hollow old bone. Your eyes looked beyond me into something great.I was trying my best but it was years too late.Your dream had left our cottage for some far unknown vale.I was left with a burning and a sign sayin' ”for sale”. I counted the stars as I looked to the skythe numbers seemed right when I started to cry.You swallowed my pride and spit out the stone.Left me here without marrow a hollow old bone. You say it's for me to take the big stepyou say it is I, who wants to leave your beddo you remember the anger, do you remember the pain when the words you were heeding were ”never again”. I counted the stars as I looked to the skythe numbers seemed right when I started to cry.You swallowed my pride and spit out the stone.Left me here without marrow a hollow old bone. Here comes the bride on a stallion all well kept and strongI lost my mind and my heart, then she left and travelled along. When you bid me farewell will you please take my hand and remember the years when we were woman and man.The laughs we did share and the things we went throughI thought the word ”forever” was a synonym for ”you”. I counted the stars as I looked to the skythe numbers seemed right when I started to cry.You swallowed my pride and spit out the stone.Left me here without marrow a hollow old bone I need a new girl I need a new girl in my life, a new face in my dreams I need a new voice to tell me things who knows all my favourite schemesWith warm hands on my breast a fresh breeze ligthing up my chest The time is now it seems I need a woman who loves like fire, a playmate to run by my side I need a woman with a strong desire to be my partner and my guide she'll tell me things I need to know and grab every chance on the go I'm opening up the curtains for the show Should it be a blond girl with big breasts, a tall girl with brown hair, a sweet thing with street flair, maternal beauty full of care. I know she's out there the star of my love affair coming down the marble le stair to cuddle up her hairy bear. I need a strong life by my side a voice I'll enjoy to hear. She'll be a loving wife by and by for now a lover and a musketeerto bring me through the darkest night and laugh when everything is alright The time is now I'm ready for you now.

Come say goodbye Come say goodbye Tell me goodbye goodbye. Ship full of ghosts I'm tryin' to hold onto what happened before I'm trying to avoid you going out the door I cling to the whispering dreams of last fall I think if I listen I'll still hear you call. It's all so unreal, it cannot be true if you'll hold onto my hand noone will need to go. Nothing has happened so why did we fail is it all just a thought of life going stale? I want to keep what we had, I want to live it again for nothing in the world I'll accept the end. For the rest of my days I'll keep singing your song the song full of beauty from before things went wrong. Holding on to whatever we think we had goin' you carried our dreams while I did the bowing when the going get's tough and the water starts flowing you found a ship and sailed away a ship that held just one and it was you that day. I was noone for you, you was all for me I used to live in a country, now I'm a refugee. "We have long years of laughter before us", you said then later you told me that all love was dead. How could I or anyone else believe that a love so strong was meant to deceive? I still think it's a nightmare and I'll wake up soon but all I can hear is a sad mumbled tune. You show me your back, but I remember your face you treat med so hard, I still see your grace. The love and the beauty, it was all so plainis lying as a corpse where you left it slain. I still wish to hold onto what happened before to the dreams that seeped through the cracks in the door I thought I gave you all, but you wanted much more The ship full of ghosts that took you away brings back wisdom and freedom at the end of the day. Thousand voices This is about the thousand voices you hear when you want to think clear. The things that you hear at times of night when all is asleep and thoughts are rolling into the deep glossy lips too close to your eyes glossy truths and terribly beautiful lies. Larger than life the thousand voices that fill you with trouble and fear stab through your ear the frozen blood of pain and defeat despair and pity cling to your feet it's too late to close your eyes all too late it's awfully clear that you've lost it all. Only sometimes It can only be sometimes that things turn out right. sometimes you're lucky, so lucky. and sometimes not at all. But the one time is all you remember to this day. The things that shaped your dreams when everything's right. The moments of truth we call them, our moments of bliss. When something falls to pieces breaks in your hands It might be very important or maybe not. most likely it's just another thing to forget. in the turmoil of the days running over you, over and away forever. This is here and now and everything's right. in this moment. This moment of truth we're living, this moment of life.
