THE TWISTED LOGIC OF LOVE From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love It hurts me, consumes me But we are powerless to cope With the cruel logic of love I love you; you love her And you don’t leave me any hope Twisted logic of love And I need your loving, Why do I need your love? Can’t blame me, can’t blame you Because there is nothing we can do It’s the twisted logic of love I love you; you love her And she’s in love with someone else Evil logic of love And I need your loving, Why do I need your love I Breath in, breath out I want to scream and shout But that’s not the solution Where is my resolution? Breath in, breath out I’m lost, so lost in doubt Betrayed by an illusion I’m drowning in confusion Because I need your loving Why do I need your love? WHERE WILL I LAY MY HEAD From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love We have seen a million rising suns Over golden fields From this room yeah I have heard the chorus of the dawn Waking up the land From my room yeah But now, they took everything I loved Took everything we owned Took our home And now gone are the fields of hay They took everything away Where will I lay my head? I have heard the beating of the drums Quickening my heart From my room yeah I have seen the cruel burning flames Swallowing the night From my room And now, they took everything I loved Took everything we owned Took our home And now gone are the fields of hay They took everything away Where will I lay my head? Where will I lay my head? I have heard the screams and seen the pain Tearing up my soul From my room I have said goodbye to my old friends Looking one last time From my room And now, they took everything I loved Took everything we owned Took our home And now gone are the fields of hay They took everything away Where will I lay my head? Where will I lay my head? TI CHINJA (LET’S CHANGE) From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love If anybody cares for those who live beyond despair Hear the story of my brothers unfold They believed change was in sight They believed it was their right And they voted for “chinja”. How bold! Because all of those who dared Believing change was in the air Were hunted, tortured and raped Some were beaten to the bone Some were burnt inside their homes And for many there was no escape But the time has come for changes And it’s there in an outstretched hand Hear the cries of people suffering And children of this devastated land Chinja - Ti chinja – Ti chinja – Hey hey Chinja - Ti chinja – (n)di zhozho – Hey hey And shame on those who help preserve These ruling psychopaths While they prosper on sorrow and pain Shame on those who sell them guns Shame on those who hide their funds Tyrants must pay for their crimes Does anybody care for those who live beyond despair While they’re hunted, tortured and die For their right to decide who’s to rule and preside Let the past step aside, step aside Because time has come for changes And it’s there in an outstretched hand Hear the cries of people suffering And orphans of this devastated land Chinja - Ti chinja – Ti chinja – Hey hey Chinja - Ti chinja – (n)di zhozho – Hey hey Chinja - Ti chinja – Ti chinja – Hey hey hey hey hey hey Chinja - Ti chinja – (n)di zhozho – Hey hey TOMORROW AT THE BREAK OF DAY From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love Tomorrow at the break of day When all is quiet in the land You know will steal away And I’ll take the winding trail Where you once led me by the hand You are never far away I’ll cross the meadows and the woods The golden field where we once laid How I long to be with you And when I’ll reach the mountain ridge I’ll watch the lights across the bay Just like we used to do And you’ll be waiting patiently You are always a part of me I’ll walk alone with my heavy heart To me the day will be like the night You once told me to be brave I’ll reach your home when all is dark Come straight to you with a candlelight And place wild flowers on your grave THE THINGS I DREAD From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love The night is closing in behind my walls As darkness prays upon the fears of tormented souls Lying on my wooden boards A dreamless sleep is all I need and longing for As I wait, my heart is drumming in my head I lie awake and think of all the things I dread The floor is creaking in the corridor Some heavy breathing filters through my bolted door Where are you when I need you most? You knew just how to chase away these awful ghosts As I wait my heart is drumming in my head I lie awake and think of all the things I dread A shadow moves along the curtain folds Now I’m in trouble if I lose my self-control Someone’s screaming down the hall It must have woken all the things that creep and crawl As I wait, my heart is drumming in my head I lie awake and think of all the things I dread WASTED LOVE From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love It comes in waves to wound and injure More than you will ever know I wonder why, I wonder how and days go by while I remember when you were my life My one and only love I ask myself once more Did I waste my love? Did I waste my love? Wasted love, wasted love Was it worth the many torments? All the lies you told so well? Was it worth the broken hearts? The emptiness, well time will tell I didn’t know how much you yearned for freedom From our gentle life You faked your happiness for all to see Until our final strife Did I waste my love? Did I waste my love? Wasted love, wasted love Time will ease my pain But I still ask again Did I waste my love? Did I waste my love? Wasted love, wasted love HE MADE ME LAUGH From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love Is love a simple accident A mere coincidence The hands of chance Or was our meeting meant to be Part of our destiny I have no idea But he made me laugh, I made him cry He made me sometimes just want to die I made him proud, he made me shine I often felt I was on cloud nine Is love celestial chemistry Two souls in ecstasy It’s a mystery Did we meet many lives ago I guess God only knows Why I love him so He made me laugh, I made him cry He made me sometimes just want to die I made him proud, he made me shine I often felt I was on cloud nine I made him laugh, he made me cry I made him sometimes just want to die We stood as one through thick and thin Not always easy but we didn’t give in WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love Why go down that road one more time You said it didn’t mean a thing I’ve got to smile as you lie to my face Please explain who’s bedded in my place It was a foregone conclusion For everyone but me Robbed of my sweetest delusion For harsh reality When all is said and done This betrayal, like a gun Shattered my life-long dream Poor unsuspecting fools Living by the wedding rules Learn that things aren’t quite what they seem Not quite what they seem I will try my luck one more time To mend my broken confidence I’ll revamp my anatomy And find some lasting company It was a foregone conclusion For everyone but me Robbed of another delusion For harsh reality When all is said and done This betrayal, like a gun Shattered my life-long dream Poor unsuspecting fools Living by the wedding rules Learn that things aren’t quite what they seem Not quite what they seem FIRST AND LAST From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love You promised but a night to me But then forgot to set me free You wished to leave and told me so I bit your lips and let you go You gave me joys, you gave me pains You made the blood rush through my veins And when that night you said farewell You opened up all living hell First and last I wonder, now that time has passed Where you will come to rest at last The shadow moved but darkness stayed Within my heart; it wouldn't fade Like ancient tales of love gone wrong Forever in this mournful song I walk the lonely desert sands My sadness fills these ancient lands And every star that hang above Remind me of my only love First and last I wonder, now that time has passed Where you will come to rest at last First and last love of mine I wonder, now that time has passed Where you will come to rest at last YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love You’ve been away for such a long time In foreign lands you’ve cried all your tears You bare the scars of our broken country But you’re not alone so master your fears What can you do for your brothers in need? From dawn to dusk, it’s a fight for existence What can I say that would change your mind? Oh, you can make a difference I’ve lost the count of motherless children Left on their own, they barely survive In shanty towns a whole generation Pays for the sins of corruption and strife What can you do for your sisters in need? From dawn to dusk, it’s a fight for existence What can I say that would change your mind? Oh, you can make a difference Where are the doctors, where are the teachers, Where are the farmers to feed and heal the land? Please heed the call. Your beloved homeland Calling you back to lend a helping hand What can you do for your brothers in need? From dawn to dusk, it’s a fight for existence What can I say that would change your mind? Oh, can you make a difference? Yes you can make a difference UNDER MY TOES From the album The Twisted Logic Of Love I could have been a nuclear physicist I could have been an anthropologist I could have mastered in philosophy Cosmography, palaeontology, but I have Idle hands, lazy bones Grass grows under my toes No bees, no honey No work, no money I could have been a Nobel price-winner But I have talent as a bartender Wasn’t cut out to be a politician Don’t know the meaning of the word ambition. I’ve got Idle hands, lazy bones Grass grows under my toes No bees, no honey No work, no money Early to bed, early to rise Makes you healthy, wealthy and wise Early to bed, early to rise Makes you healthy, wealthy and wise, but I’ve got A sailor’s life is one of constant motion Rather be floating on a waveless ocean A vagabond without a begging bowl My secret goal is to be on the dole because I’ve got Idle hands, lazy bones Grass grows under my toes No bees, no honey No work, no money But easy come easy goes Grass grows under my toes Grass grows under my toes
