  1. Climax - You Tried To Take It All
    Babe - don’t wanna wait it	
    For so long	
    Babe - don’t wanna	
    Make me come on strong	
    I can’t - I can’t believe	
    You’re really near	
    I can’t - I can’t believe	
    You’re really near
    
    Surely - the feeling	
    Cannot last too long	
    Truly - it’s a moment	
    Then it’s gone
    Climax - I can’t believe	
    It’s really here
    Climax - I can’t believe	
    You’re really near

    You Tried To Take It All

    Oh, how I tried and I tried	
    Oh, how I tried to save	
    A little love for you	
    But you were not satisfied	
    You tired to take it all	
    And took me for a real hard ride
    
    Tried to remember, tried to recall	
    I offered you a little love	
    And you tried, you tried to take it all
    
    Crazy with teasin’ and needin’	
    Your body was bleedin’ but still	
    You shine your love for all	
    Look in your eyes was misleadin’	
    I plead love to someone	
    But it never felt this good before
    
    I tried to remember, I tried to recall	
    I offered you a little love	
    And you tried, you tried to take it all

  2. Make The Feeling Last
    I will try to make the feeling last	
    I will try not to love you too fast	
    But now this heart of mine	
    Is beatin’ too strong	
    And now the love I give to you	
    Is beatin’ low	
    But I will try to make the feeling last
    
    Now you move so quickly	
    I try to tend you down	
    But I know you can make it alone	
    Please resist the feeling that	
    I’m tryin’ to give you	
    Till I’m near, oh, near
    
    I can’t help the nights	
    That we have past	
    I can’t help the way	
    That I’ve been fast	
    I’m in the clouds and	
    No one’s listenin’ to me	
    Color in spaces	
    In your party and see	
    But I will try to make the feeling last
    
    Now you move so quickly	
    I try to tend you down	
    But I know you can make it alone	
    Please resist the feeling that	
    I’m tryin’ to give you	
    Till I’m near, oh, near
    
    I can’t help the nights	
    That we have past I can’t help the way	
    That I’ve been fast	
    I’m in the clouds and	
    no one’s listenin’ to me	
    color in spaces	
    In your party and see	
    I will try to make the feeling last

  3. You Must Come With Me
    You must come with me	
    Won’t you try, don’t just lie there	
    You must come with me	
    Can’t you see what it’s doin’ to me
    
    I’m doin’ my best while	
    You try to undress	
    And the colors I see	
    Mean so little to me	
    You must be fast now
    That you’ve reached the last	
    But the colors remain	
    Quietly cloudin’ my brain
    
    Now you’ll come with me	
    Spend the day lovin’ this way
    
    You must come with me	
    Won’t you try, don’t just lie there	
    You must come with me	
    Can’t you see what it’s doin’ to me
    
    I’m doin’ my best while	
    You try to undress	
    And the colors I see	
    Mean so little to me	
    You must be fast now	
    That you’ve reached the last	
    But the colors remain	
    Quietly cloudin’ my brain

  4. The Girl Who Loved, The Girl Who Loved
    The girl who loved	
    The girl who loved	
    To rest there in her arms	
    But lived the life of hell	
    When someone comes
    
    The girl who loved	
    The girl who loved	
    To smell each passing bay	
    But no one else to touch	
    Or speak, or play
    
    In a deserted place	
    He’d been a fool	
    Tearing her clothes	
    And acting so cruel
    
    The girl who loved	
    Those tender words	
    But never from a man	
    The girl who’s reached the sun	
    With female hands
    
    The girl who loved	
    The sweet caress	
    Of lipstick on her cheek	
    The girl who never knew	
    Of love so sweet
    
    In a deserted place	
    He’d been a fool	
    Tearing her clothes	
    And acting so cruel
    
    The girl who loved	
    Those tender words	
    But never from a man	
    The girl who’s reached the sun	
    With female hands
    
    She lives the life of hell	
    When someone comes	
    She’s no one else to touch	
    Or speak of play	
    The girl who’s reached the sun	
    With female hands	
    She never knew a love	
    A love so sweet

  5. Orgasm
    I know how to hold you	
    I know how to touch you now	
    I know how to make you feel all right
    
    I know what you’ve been through	
    I know how it’s always been	
    But you never felt what you feel tonight
    
    I always told you I’d do it to you	
    I told you I would give you such delight
    
    I know how to hold you now	
    And I know how to touch you now	
    I know how to make you feel all right
    
    Orgasm, orgasm
    
    I know how to hold you	
    I know how to touch you now	
    I know how to make you feel all right
    
    And I always told you I’d do it to you	
    I told you I would give you such delight

  6. The First Time
    Yes, I know it’s first time	
    That you’ve been lyin’ without her	
    Sick of the thought a lonely night	
    Without her at your side	
    You’ve mistreated her badly	
    And now you’re lonely without her	
    Sick of the thought of	
    The happiness you’ve been denied
    
    You’re playin’ the wrong kind of game	
    Her love, it just isn’t the same	
    Frustration’s gonna leave you behind	
    You’re makin’ the wrong kind of love	
    Your hand was nothing for love	
    Your overflowin’ river just went dry
    
    You can still touch her discreetly	
    And hold her hand in the sunshine	
    In the place where it started	
    A long time ago	
    You feel sad just to see it now	
    For reasons you know in your heart	
    You broke your dreams and hers	
    By makin’ it told
    
    You’ve spent your time runnin’ around	
    Sudden deeds have been	
    Bringin’ me down	
    But from the look on your face	
    I can see you’ve cried	
    But don’t ever say it’s the end	
    There’s no heart in beginnin’ again	
    Let no one tell you	
    That you haven’t tried

  7. Scattering Seeds
    Scattering seeds in your hand	
    And you’re callin’ your name	
    Try to remember the time	
    When we both felt the same
    
    Scattering seeds on my island	
    Now when you’re away	
    Knowin’ the feeling that you	
    Won’t be back today
    
    And in some dreams I find	
    Scattering seeds and losin’ my mind	
    But we will find a way	
    Went for a change we need to play	
    We need to play
    
    Scattering seeds when we	
    Can’t find a way to be sure	
    Leave her out just to see now	
    Forclose the door	
    Scattering seeds with a smile	
    And a tear in our eyes	
    Touchin’ the sun through	
    The glass of an evening sky
    
    Scattering seeds in your hand	
    And you’re callin’ your name	
    Try to remember the time	
    When we both felt the same
    
    Scattering seeds on my island	
    Now when you’re away	
    Knowin’ the feeling that you	
    Won’t be back today

  1. Sweet Morning Light
    Sweet morning light	
    Sweet morning light	
    Sun shinin’ bright	
    On everything inside
    
    Green is the grass	
    Winter has passed	
    No sign of cloud	
    Wanna shine out loud
    
    That I love to live	
    And I live to love in the	
    Sweet morning light
    
    Sun in my eyes	
    Is my sweet surprise	
    Now life of lies	
    Or black disguise
    
    Good lord of life	
    And precious sight	
    Keep out the storm	
    Try to keep me warm
    
    ‘Cause I love to live	
    And I live to love in the	
    Sweet morning light
    
    Sweet morning light	
    Sweet morning light	
    Sun shinin’ bright	
    On everything inside
    
    Green is the grass	
    Winter has passed	
    No sign of cloud	
    Wanna shine out loud
    
    That I love to live	
    And I live to love in the	
    Sweet morning light

  2. Lonely Ship
    Where, oh where shall I look my love	
    Where in the world	
    To find a thousand battle ships	
    With all their flags and furl
    
    Will the will of life for me today	
    Can a log so sadly sink	
    Of the love we found and cast away	
    That was my everything
    
    I’m not saying that I’ll die for you	
    I’m not saying that I long	
    What I mean is I will look for you	
    For it’s you who has my soul
    
    Far, so far into the empty night	
    My lonely ship will sail
    
    Where there’s life	
    There must be love	
    In this world and the next	
    And paths along which lovers walk	
    Whom happiness returns
    
    Where, oh where shall I look my love	
    Where in the world	
    To find a thousand battle ships	
    With all their flags and furl

  3. My Dream
    In my dream I saw ahead	
    Another thousand years	
    I saw the vision of a world in fear	
    In my dream
    
    And I saw the battle at	
    The whole world lost	
    And left no one to sit	
    And count the cost	
    In my dream
    
    But my head was flying high	
    Above the tired strife	
    I saw beyond	
    The actual waste of life	
    In my dream

  4. Slowin' Down
    I feel I’m slowin’ down	
    Left here to die	
    On the ice cold ground	
    I’ve had my share of trouble	
    And all the misery around
    
    I got one day left to live	
    Nothing left to give	
    Take my soul, I’m slowin’ down
    
    I just can’t stay around	
    I’ve been abused	
    And I’m leavin’ town	
    I’ve had my share of trouble	
    With sorrow followin’ me around
    
    I’ve seen fightin’, people dyin’	
    Politicians lyin’	
    Take my soul, I’m slowin’ down
    
    I feel I’m slowin’ down	
    Left here to die	
    On the ice cold ground	
    I’ve had my share of trouble	
    And all the misery around
    
    I got one day left to live	
    Nothing left to give	
    Take my soul, I’m slowin’ down

  5. Before I Die
    Let me see one summer	
    Before I die	
    Free my heart from weary fortune	
    Let me see the light	
    With the stars at night	
    With not of deserving	
    These clouds at its side	
    Before I die
    
    Bring no tales of hidden meaning	
    Please don’t speak to me of war	
    These are things my heart rejected	
    Oh, forever, never	
    Never cause me pain again	
    Before I die
    
    What’s the use of a life without love	
    With our love is everything	
    There’s no place for it here or above	
    Yes, love is everywhere
    
    Let me see one summer	
    Before I die	
    Free my heart from weary fortune	
    Let me see the light	
    With the stars at night	
    With not of deserving	
    These clouds at its side	
    Before I die	
    Oh, before I die
