2. September:
'k Weet nog goed
koud en mistig weer
In september
avond van weleer
't Leven was zo mooi
met jou aan m'n zij
De herinnering is sterk
en ze blijft
Die zomernachten
dansen in het maanlicht
Ik zag je en je lachte
bruinverbrand gezicht
Voor altijd in m'n droom
steeds meer en meer
die lieve woordenstroom
klinkt telkens weer
't Zijn lange dagen
zo zonder jou
't Regent weer met vlagen
September wordt heel koud
Kon ik nu maar weer bij je zijn
dan voelde ik veel minder pijn
4. Mary- Lou (1987):
Ze was rond, ze was dik
ze was niet goed snik
Ze was dom, ze was stom
Ze had een dwaze blik
en haar haar in de war
ze was blond
het was eigenlijk zonde
En ik vroeg haar ten dans
ze was meteen bereid
al bij al was het best een leuke meid
haar rechteroor stond naar voor
maar ik was blij dat ik er had gevonden
Oh Mary-Lou
Je bent mijn shoe
Je ziet er niet uit
maar dat doet er niet toe
Je bent voor mij de liefste op aard
en anderen zijn naast jou
geen stuiver meer waard
Ze droeg een groene bloes
een oranje broek
rond 'r hals een paarse zijden doek
d'er bril was te groot en haar kousen waren versleten
Ze had geen veters aan haar schoenen
en die waren te groot
de strik in d'r haar was compleet idioot
ze was verschrikkelijk geschminkt
ik zal haar nooit vergeten
Oh, Mary-Lou
je bent mijn shoe
je ziet er niet uit
maar dat doet er niet toe
je bent voor mij
de liefste op aard
en anderen zijn naast jou
geen stuiver waard
5. De belastingskontroleur:
'k Heb met yoga geprobeerd
M'n kanten te herwinnen
'k Ben op retraite zelfs geweest
Om mij eens te bezinnen
'k Drink geen koffie meer geen thee
Om niet nerveus te worden
'k Drink uit plastieken bekertjes
Eet uit papieren borden
Zodat ik niet de neiging krijg
Te gooien en te smijten
'k Draag een handschoen dag en nacht
Om aan m'n nagels niet te bijten
En toch
Zie 'k m'n kontroleur
Dan ben ik niet te bedwingen
Dan scheld en schimp ik op de man
En zeg ik van die akelige dingen
'k Scheld 'm uit voor rotte vis
Voor zot en Mickey Rooney
Als ik jou in 't donker tegenkom
Dan sla ik op je tronie
Ik noem hem dief en moordenaar
Hardvochtig en bekrompen
En als z'n tafel daar niet stond
Ik zou hem slaan en stompen
'k Zeg hem dat ik ook iets weet
Van al z'n schuinse gangen
En dat ik weet waar hij zo vaak
Des nachts hangt uit te hangen
En dat ik dingen van 'm weet
Die 'k eens ga voort vertellen
En dat hij voor een man als hij
Niet eens tot tien kan tellen
Maar
Wie daar 't meeste
Onder lijdt
Dat is niet hij
Maar ik
M'n vrinden
Want
Hoe ik 't ook draai
Of keer
Hij
Weet me steeds te vinden

1. Live like kings:
He took his coat off
Walked into the room
Looking like the James Dean
Of the babyboom
Oh she met him halfway
Cross the kitchen floor
She'll be crazy 'bout the boy with the
Stars in his eyes forever more
A new day coming it will
Take their breath away
She holds him closer and
He turns to her and says
(Chorus)
Baby some day we live like kings
On top of the world together
Any day now the sun will
Coming shining through
Baby some day we live like kings
On top of this world forever
Live like kings, oh we live like kings
Things are getting tough
And money's hard to find
Oh he's working his heart out
Thinking 'bout the time
When they won't have to worry
About making ends meet
Yeah they'll be living their dreams out
Down on the good side of the street
No compromise in
Matters of the heart
True believers always
Finish what they start
(Chorus)
In every small town there's a miracle
Not so hard to find
Read between the lines
Oh he's gonna love you 'till
The end of time, yeah
All the kings horses
And all the kings men (3x)
Never gonna let them go back again
While everybody's talking
'Bout the third world war
They've got something worth dying for
Hold on to the dream
In the middle of the night
'Cause someday's coming baby
Gonna set things right
(Chorus)
2. Take me down:
Straight out of nowhere
like a thief in the night
You stole my heart
Life was so easy
I thought I was getting by
I was wrong from the start
How was I to know that
the way I was living
Would never be the same
since I felt what you are giving
Chorus
Take me down
(we are deeper than water)
Take me down
(we are thicker than blood)
Take me down to a ground
where my feet won't touch down
Won't you take me down,
take me down, take me down
How did I manage to get through
those years without you around
Babe where we're going,
well it's halfway to heaven
this love that we've found
I'm never going back
to the way I was living
It would never be the same
once I felt what you are giving
Chorus
I stand on an edge between here and
forever with my heart in my hand
And I believe that the power of love
between lovers is
making me understand
Straight out of nowhere like
a thief in the night
you stole my heart
when you kissed me
Chorus
3. Piece of Candy:
I watch Candy dance
in a club downtown
where the music's loud
for the lost and found
at the Starlight Cafe
And I never can see
what's against the law
She's not a dirty peep show
She's a mouth so raw
Saying she's going to marry me
someday
When the lights go down
and no one else,
say no one else can see
spinning round and round
Candy does a solo dance for me
Candy does a solo dance for me
Now my small town girl
gets a little bit rough
when we're alone
And she can't get enough
to feed her hunger
But the sparks just fly
from my Candy's eyes
when we make love
she's ten miles high
and I can hear the thunder
Sweet sweet piece of Candy
on my tongue
Well it's good goin' down
And when no one else
Say no one else can see
Candy does a solo dance for me
Candy does a solo dance for me
When the lights go down, down
and no one else,
say no one else can see
Spinning round and round
I tell you Candy does
a solo dance for me
Candy does a solo dance for me
I get my piece of Candy
I get my piece of love
I get some peace and understanding
4. Take it to your heart:
We've been alone,
we have been together
We have seen it all
You have said
the sweetest words forever
And I have heard them all
But I've never known how to tell you
What I'm telling you now
So will you
Take it to your heart
when I say I love you
Take it to your heart
No I've never known how to tell you
What I'm telling you now
So will you take it to your heart
It feels good to hear you say I love you
What power lies within those words
You must be strong,
for I cannot imagine
how you held on and never heard
What I've never known how to tell you
I'm telling you now
So will you
Take it to your heart
When I say I love you
Take it to your heart
Even when the stars are falling
Out of a clear blue sky
There will still be love enough
for you and I
No I've never known how to tell you
What I'm telling you know
So will you
Take it to your heart
When I say I love you
Take it to your heart
Every day now
Take it to your heart
Aah
Take it to your heart
5. Promise Land:
Standing tall under the weight of the world
Ain't it funny how the years unfurl
Found myself, found my strength
in a promise
I told her one day we would leave it all
the city streets where the migthy fall
Made my commitment, made her believe
in a promise
It's taken every moment
We've shed our share of tears
Time has done its dance and we're still here
Oh and I'm lost within her now
Together we are bound
Chorus:
Open our eyes, open our ears
to the Promise Land
Open our mind, open our hearts
to the Promise Land
Just like I'm counting on the rising sun
I believe in the only one
I want to hold when the day is done
That's a promise
While everyone around us
struggle with their fear
We have each other to love
and we're still here
Yeah we have built a bridge
that lead our hearts to here
Chorus
When we are young without a care
Life can take us anywhere
There's a heaven we'll see from there
mothers and fathers
and sisters and brothers
living their dreams
Chorus
6. Caroline:
It's Saturday night and I'm such a mess
My baby just called said she needs to taste my kiss
She'll probably knock me out in a nasty dress
With a body like hers, well how can I resist
With love like this I'm surely blessed
But Caroline she never lets me rest
Oh Caroline she wants me all of the time
Just spend an hour in my baby's arms
You'll be glad to be alive
Oh Caroline
It's Saturday night can you picture this
My baby and me rollin' cross the bedroom floor
And just when you think she's had enough
She'll be down on her knees
just begging me for more
I guess she loves me best undressed
Yeah Caroline she'll never let me rest
Oh Caroline she wants me all of the time
Just spend an hour in my baby's arms
You'll be glad to leave alive
Oh Caroline
And I feel like a lucky man
When she says, "Lay me down
in the tall grass again"
And I find myself in my baby's arms
Glad to be alive
Oh Caroline
Just spend an hour in my baby's arms
You'll be glad to be alive
Oh Caroline
7. Ooh yeah:
In the morning when I look at you
and you are still asleep
I run my fingers through your hair
Oh my God you look so sweet
And you know I'd rather stay
'cause you make me feel so good
I wish there was some other way
but you've always understood
That when I've got to go
so far away you know
I would do anything, anything to stay
You can see it in my smile
I'm thinking all the while
Chorus:
Ooh yeah, I believe it's true
Ooh yeah, when I look at you
Ooh yeah, you're my XTC
Ooh yeah, when you're pleasing me
Everytime I've looked around
girls have tried to please me
Hey I laughed and even now
I can't remember clearly
All their looks and all their charms
All their ways to tease me
They never did appeal to me
They'll never touch me deeply
Cause when I feel your kiss
I only think of this
I would do anything, anything to
please you
I can feel it when you smile
You make my life worthwhile
Chorus
You and I can cross the stars
no matter where we are
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
You will always be with me
It's a fact you see
'Caus everytime I've looked around
Girls have tried to please me
They never did appeal to me
They'll never touch me deeply
'Cause when I feel your kiss
I only think of this
I would do anything, anything to
please you
I can feel it when you smile
You make my life worthwile
Chorus
8. Worship:
There will never be
Another night like this
And I have never felt
The passion of a kiss
Like yours
We're someplace out of time
Captured in a touch
Who would have believed
That we could feel as much
As we do now, as we do now
Baby when the sun tries to hide
And the clouds build up their thunder
Think of me and darling
This world won't hold you down
(Chorus)
'Cause I worship the ground you walk on
And I will love you until the day I die
And somewhere down the line
When the years are not so kind
I'll still worship the ground you walk on
No one can come close
To understanding how
I couldn't feel much more
Than I do right now
But you do somehow
Nothing lies between you and I
In tis bed tonight
Sleeping with contentment
In the arms of love
(Chorus)
9. Every Single Time:
I'm thinking of all the silent words
My body will say to you tonight
I gotta get next to you somehow
High above these clouds
I'm waiting for these wheels
To touch the ground
Maybe I'll have another drink
I try to get my mind off you
But oh how I long for your voice
Every single time I hear you calling me
Every single time I come running
Every single time
You said you couldn't face
This night alone
You asked me to catch
The first plane home
I picture your face
With every passing mile
Oh I am missing you
Every single time I hear you calling me
Every single time I come running to your arms
Every single time You touch me
I fall for you Every single time, oh
When I see the stars
In the midnight sky
Every time I wonder why
I come running back to you
In an airplane at the speed of sound
When I'm ten feet over holy ground
That's when I know why
That's when I know why
Every single time
Every single time
But oh how I long
For your voice
Baby
10. Heart of the matter:
You've been a good friend of mine
We've always played by the rules
I'm crossing the boundary lines
At the risk of losing you
Oh there's skeletons in the closet
There's a crack in the wood
There's an unexpected ending tonight
I've been talking all around it
For as long as I could
But this time I'm gonna tell you
How I feel inside
I've gotta get to the heart of the matter
Gotta say that I've wanted you so long
Take it straight to the heart of the matter
I love you right or wrong
Maybe I've said too much
But it's too late to hide
I'm dying to know your touch
As well as I know your mind
There's a fire in the basement
There's a rise in the tide
There's whole lot of passion on the loose
It's so hard to contain it
When I feel so alive like I do
I'm ready to share my whole life with you
I've gotta get to the heart of the matter
Gotta say that I've wanted you so long
Take it straight to the heart of the matter
The center of it all
The love that I'm after
Is the heart of the matter
Forever is such an easy word today
But so difficult to do
It's better to know that if love ever fades
I'm a friend you'll never lose
You can't lose
I've gotta get to the heart of the matter
Gotta say that I've wanted you so long
Take it straight to the heart of the matter
Love you right or wrong
The love that I'm after
Is the heart of the matter
I've gotta get to the heart of the matter
Gotta say that I've wanted you so long
Take it straight to the heart of the matter
I gotta say I love you
Right or wrong
11. One Nigt Stand:
Hesitations in my mind
Why are you so hard to find
Someone tell me what to do
How to get through to you
I have to make you understand
Life's too short
I could get bored
You've got me in the palm of your hand
(Chorus)
I'll be your one night stand
Your wish is my command, oh baby
I'll be your lover for life
If you say you'll be my wife, oh baby
It don't matter how
Just let me be yours right now
Open up your eyes and see
Look up in the sky for me
How I love your smiling face
Like an angel from outer space
And maybe you will understand
You're mine can't you see
You've got me in the palm of your hand
(Chorus)
I give you my best shot
I give you all I've got
I'll be your one night stand
'Till I've got you in the palm of my hand
12. I live in memories:
Well it's the middle of the night
And I'm cold and lonely
Lying in my bed
The moon is shining
On the wall above me
And I just can't forget
I live in memories
Here's to the memories
I look for company and comfort
In your picture on that wall
And when I feel you near me baby
I chase your shadow down the hall
But there's no one beside me
Just the dead of night
No one to tell me everything's alright
Am I getting through
Our house is empty without you
(Chorus)
I can't forget your naked body
I can't forget your kiss
I can't forget that there's a part of you
In everything I miss
I cannot live like this
I live in memories, oh
Here's to the memories, oh
I feel my heart beat fast
When I think about
The passion in your kiss
And if I listen real close
I can hear you whisper
Words of happiness
I live in memories
Here's to the memories
Can you understand the heartache
Can you understand the pain
Will you think of me in springtime
Underneath the pouring rain
When there's no one beside you
Just the dead of night
No one to tell you
Everything's alright
Am I getting through
I am empty without you
(Chorus)
And I wonder if you ever
Are you ever coming home
Or will I dance with you forever
In memories alone, oh
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
