was formed around a tiny bar band fronted by vocalist Jascha Richter and
his sister, plus guitarist Mikkel Lentz and drummer Kare Wanscher. By
1988, Richter's sister had left and bassist Soren Madsen completed the
lineup. Michael Learns to Rock released their self-titled debut album
in 1991, and earned a release in America through Impact Records. Cleveland
Int'l provided distribution for 1993's Colours, 1995's Played on Pepper,
and 2002's Blue Night. Though the band remained unknown in the Western
Hemisphere, Asian audiences continued to make them one of the most popular
artists in the region. |

After some time
I've finally made up my mind
She is the girl
And I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere
To find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry about the things I've done
I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding-dress
But she's crying while she's saying this"Boy I've missed your kisses
All the time but this is
Twenty-five minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty-five minutes too late"Against the wind
I'm going home again
Wishing me back to the time
When we are more than friends
But still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding-dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
(Chorus)Out in the streets
Places where hungry have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said
(Chorus)I can still hear her say
She blinded me with her light
It's such a beautiful sight
The way she moves like an angel
She's got me walking on airAngel eyes
Rays of hope that hypnotise
They're a blessing in disguise
Lightning up my lifeWe can play
in our secret hideaway
We can go there everyday
Time is on our sideChorus: She blinded me with her light
It's such a beautiful sight
The way she moves like an angel
She's got me walking on airAngel eyes
There will be no compromise
now that I have realised
what they mean to me
Oh year...Chorus:
She blinded me...She brought heaven to me
just like a symphony
The way she talks like an angel
A language out of this worldI'm not a superstitious mind
not the spiritual kind
But she became a revalation to me
She made me believeOutro:
She's the sun that makes the rainbow
She's the blue sky when it's cloudy in my mind
She's the thunder, she's the lightning
She's the weather that keeps blowing troughout time
Lately you have been asking me
if all my words are true
Don't you know I'll do anything for youSometimes I haven't been good to you
Sometimes I've made you cry
And I am sorry for everythingbut I promise you girl
I promise you thisChorus:
When the blue night is over my face
on the dark side of the world in space
When I'm all alone with the stars above
you are the one I loveSo there's no need to worry girl
My heart is sealed for you
And no one's gonna take it awaycos' I promise you girl
I promise you thisChorus:
When the blue night is over my face
on the dark side of the world in space
When I'm all alone with the stars above
you are the one I loveYour voice is calling to me in my dreams
My love is stronger than it's ever been
I'm on the floor
Counting one minute more
No one to break the silenceStaring into the night
All alone but that's alright
It's the feeling deep inside I don't likeThere is no excuse my friend
For breaking my heart
Breaking my heart again
This is where our journey ends
You're breaking my heart againHere in my bed
Counting the words you've said
They linger in the shadowsComing home late at night
Drunk again but that's alright
It's the look in your eyes I don't likeThere is no excuse my friend
For breaking my heart
Breaking my heart again
This is where our journey ends
You're breaking my heart againThere is no excuse my friend
For breaking my heart
Breaking my heart again
This is where our journey ends
You're breaking my heart again
Don't know what to say now
Don't know where to start
I don't know how to handle
A complicated heart
You tell me you are leaving
But I just have to say
Before you throw it all awayEven if you want to go alone
I will be waiting when you're coming home
If you need someone to ease the pain
You can lean on me
My love will still remainDon't know what you're thinking
To me is seems quite tough
To hold a conversation
When words are not enough
So this is you decision
And there is nothing I can do
I can only say to youEven if you want to go alone
I will be waiting when you're coming home
If you need someone to ease the pain
You can lean on me
My love will still remainIf this is you decision
And there is nothing I can do
I can only say to youEven if you want to go alone
I will be waiting when you're coming home
If you need someone to ease the pain
You can lean on me
My love will still remain
No more lonely talking
waiting for the phone
No more lonely walking
in the streets aloneToday the sun is shining
cos' since I meet you
the sky seems so blueChorus: And I'm digging your love
I'm digging your love
I am forever in your arms
can't get enough
And I go crazy
when you're not here
I wanna follow you my friend
to everywhere
I'm digging your loveThrough a lot of dangers
looking for a life
Meet a lot of strangers
drifting in the night
But now the world is changing
because of that light
that shines in your eyesI get lost
I get high
You are taking me to the skies
when you're looking at me
The doors are open and you're on your way
The eyes of the world are on you to day
Fire is deep in your heart
Desire burning from the start
Your feeling like a winner deep insideChorus:
Dreaming of gold body of steel
driving you on making you feel
Second to none united again
You carry the eternal flameBreaking the records for power and speed
Your faith in yourself now is all that you need
Tears when chances are gone
Joy for the lucky ones
and then we celebrate a world who join as oneChorus:
Dreaming of gold body of steel
driving you on making you feel
Second to none united again
You carry the eternal flame
I was lost on my own
had become a rolling stone
You talked to me
You talked to meHolding back
a lonely scream
I was giving up my dreams
You danced with me
You danced with meThere's nobody here but you and me in the dark
Why do I stay when I should run awayChorus:
It's a fools direction
but I'm holding on
cos' I need your love my girl
in a mad and crazy worldSomeone broke my heart before
and I promised that no one more
should let me down
should let me downThere's nobody here...
Chorus:
It's a fools direction
but I'm holding on
cos' you keep me warm my girl
in a cold cold world
And I need protection
and I need to be held
I just need your love my girl
in a mad and crazy world
When the night has come
And the day is done
I'm always thinking of you
You are in the air
You are everywhere
In everything I doIf I could keep this moment in time
If I could make you forever mine
Baby I'm lost in your love
From heaven above
You came to bring me upWith you I feel that I could stay
In love forever and a dayWhen I walk alone
Through an empty home
I can't stop thinking of you
Do you feel the pain
Could it be the same
Are you missing me tooI see your face when I close my eyes
I see a glimpse of your own paradise
You came from heaven above
I'm lost in your love
Free as the wind
You give me wings to flyWith you I feel that I could stay
In love forever and a dayMy girl I feel that I could stay
In love forever and a day
It's been so long since we took the time
To share words from deep inside us
We're in our own world spinning our wheels
But you know how I feelSince the first time I took your hand
My love for you has just been growing
You always seem to understand
You know how I amCHORUS:
I'm gonna love you 'till the end
I'm gonna be your very true friend
I wanna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be aroundWhen you alone coz i'm away
Don't be sad, don't be afraid
i'm gonna turn my thoughts to you
Like I always doCHORUS
Catch you when you fall
Hold you when you're down
Sharing every moment
I wanna show you all I do
I believe I've found the miracle in you
Building it up, tearing it down
The circle goes round and around
Lessons are learned and bridges are burned
I'm hoping the tide will turnI'm gonna change direction
Just for my own protectionA flag is up I see the sign
It's just a matter of time
The wind will blow and the trees will bend
Nothing is left in the endIt isn't my desire to set the world on fire
I'm gonna come back when the war is over
When you're ready to make amends
Fill up the cracks and find the pieces
Then but them all back againI see you there in the air
Nothing to break your fall
The damage is done you've had your fun
Who's gonna pay for it allIt isn't my desire to set the world on fire
I'm gonna come back when the war is over
When you're ready to make amends
Fill up the cracks and find the pieces
Then but them all back again(I'm gonna come back) I'm gonna come back
(I'm gonna come back) I'm gonna come backI'm gonna come back when the war is over
When you're ready to make amends
Fill up the cracks and find the pieces
Then but them all back againI'm turning my back as the walls are falling
Staying away till the dust is gone
I'm under attack and a voice is calling
Better stay away something's wrongI'm gonna come back
Something's wrong
You got me counting the seconds
It happens every time
I'm waiting for the moment
We can sit down and talk for a while
And every time that you're near me
My heart is running away
How can I tell you when words don't come easy
And there is so much I'm trying to sayI wanna know that love will surround us
And you'll share it with me every day
Tell me you'll care for me now and forever
I'll give anything to hear you say
That I'm more than a friendI'm gonna try in the future
Not to live in the past
I guess that I was a dreamer
If I thought it could ever last
But every time that I see you
You bring me out in the sun
How can I hide it when we are together
I just know that you're the only oneI wanna know that love will surround us
And you'll share it with me every day
Tell me you'll care for me now and forever
I'll give anything to hear you say
That I'm more than a friendI wanna make you see
Everything you are to me
Try to understand
I wonder if you can
The love I have for you
Will always be true
I catch a word of the universal rhyme
In the summer times
In the summer times
The river flows
And I wonder where it goes
Only heaven knows
Only heaven knowsInpatient with
The human race
Still Nature shows
A friendly face
And I believe
In paradise on EarthBut then tonight
I had this dream
So horrible
I had to scream
I saw the Earth
Naked like the Moon
Naked like the MoonInpatient with
The human race
Still Nature shows
A friendly face
And I believe
In paradise on EarthBut when I saw
The News today
So horrible I had to pray
Don't leave the Earth
Naked like the Moon
Naked like the Moon
There are times when you make me laugh
There are moments when you drive me mad
There are seconds when I see the light
Though many times you made me cry
There's something you don't understand
I want to be your manNothing to lose
Your love to win
Hoping so bad
That you'll let me in
I'm at your feet
Waiting for you
I've got time and nothing to loseThere are times when I believe in you
These moments when I feel close to you
There are times I think that I am yours
Though many times I feel unsure
There's something you don't understand
I want to be your manNothing to lose
Your love to win
Hoping so bad
That you'll let me in
I'm at your feet
Waiting for you
I've got time and nothing to loseI'll always be around you
Keep an eye on you
Cos my patience is strong
And I won't let you run
Cos you are the only one
I wanna climb Mount Everest
I wanna see the girls undressed
I wanna drift across the sea in a hot balloonI wanna jump out from a plane
And you could say that I'm insane
I'll count to twenty before i loose the parachuteTheres gonna be no single stone
that I didn't turn
there's gonna be no single lesson that I didn't learnChorus:
Never wanna let a chance go by
I'm gonna spread my wings and fly
I won't look back or slow the speed
cos' living is a one way streetI'm gonna whistle all kinds of tunes
get lazy in the afternoons
and ket my thoughts travel with me to the moonI'm gonna get my share of love
I'll be praying to the skies above
I need to know if there is someone watching usThere's gonna be no single stone...
Chorus:
Never wanna let a chance go by
I'm gonna spread my wings and fly
I won't look back or slow the speed
cos' living is a one way streetNever wanna let a dance go by
Never wanna miss a look in your eyes
I won't look back or slow the speed
cos' living is a one way street
I was almost about to lose my faith
Was still dreaming but feared it was too lateBut then you came along to my surprise
And stole my heart before my very eyesYou took me right out of the blue
Simply by showing that you love me too
Only by giving me your everything
With a love so true you took me out of the blueI was wondering what love was all about
I was trying but couldn't work it outBut then you came along to my surprise
And stole my heart before my very eyesYou took me right out of the blue
Simply by showing that you love me too
Only by giving me your everything
With a love so true you took me out of the blueYou let me out of the darkness
You brought me out in the sun
I think you must be the only one for me
Cos you took meRight out of the blue
Simply by showing that you love me too
Only by giving me your everything
Breathing air below my wingsYou took me right out of the night
Simply by filling my heart with light
Only by giving me your energy
With a love so true you took me out of the blue
From my youngest years
Till this moment here
I've never seen
Such a lovely queen
From the skies above
To the deepest love
I've never felt
Crazy like this beforeCHORUS:
Paint my love
You should
Paint my love
It's the picture of
A thousand sunsets
It's the freedom of
A thousand doves
Baby you should
Paint my loveBeen around the world
Then I met you girl
It's like coming home
To a place I've knownRepeat chorus
Since you came
Into my life
The days before all fade
To black and white
Since you came
Into my life
(Ooh, into my life)
Everything has changed
(Ooh)Paint my love
You should
Paint my love
It's the picture of
A thousand sunsets
It's the freedom of
A thousand doves
Baby you should
Paint my love
(Paint my love)Paint my love
You should
Paint my love
It's the picture of
A thousand sunsets
(It's the picture of)
It's the freedom of
(Ooh)
A thousand doves
Baby you should
Paint my loveOoh
The sun is almost down
And we are both enjoying the sound
Of the ocean softly brushing against the landWe are sleeping you and me
With a smell of tulip tree
Under the starry sky on a romantic balconyBut a pain inside my chest wakes me up
The truth is slowly spreading on the
Smokey battlefield
I am bleeding from my heart and I
I feel so tired
I guess I have to rest for a whileHigh above this world
Missing your loveHigh above this world
Missing your loveI can see your face in tears
When you so far away from here
Read the messages from the war
"The battle took one more"
I wanna tell nurse a secret
My lips won't move
Oh she really looks like youHigh (nothing can touch us now)
Above (no one t tell us how)
This world (I'm sorry for the soldiers)
Missing your love
(Who are still alive in the war)High (nothing can touch us now)
Above (no one t tell us how)
This world (I'm sorry for the soldiers)
Missing your love
(Who are still alive in the war)High (nothing can touch us now)
Above (no one t tell us how)
This world (I'm sorry for the soldiers)
Missing your love
(Who are still alive in the war)Hey you
I wanna live
I don't wanna be a wounded soldier
Don't wanna let your face grow olderHey you
Take me to the ocean
Take me to the smell of tulip tree
To the romantic balcony
Hey you
The milky way upon the heavens,
Is twinkling just for you,
And mr. moon, he came by,
To say goodnight to you.I sing for you,
I sing for mother,
Were praying for the world,
And for the people everywhere,
Gonna show them all we care,Oh my sleeping child,
The world's so wild,
But you built your own paradise,
That's one reason why I cover you sleeping child.If all the people around the world,
They had a mind like yours,
We'd have no fighting and no wars,
There would be lasting peace on earth.If all the kings and all the leaders,
Could see you here this way,
They would hold the earth in there arms,
They would learn to watch you play.Oh my sleeping child,
The world's so wild,
But you built your own paradise,
That's one reason why I cover you sleeping child.Cover my child,
I'm gonna cover my sleeping child,
Keep you away,
Keep you away from the world so wild,
Keep you away from the world,
Away from the world so wild,Oh my sleeping child,
The world's so wild,
But you built your won paradise,
That's one reason why I cover you sleeping child
In my search for freedom
and peace of mind
I've left the memories behind
Wanna start a new life
but it seems to be rather absurd
when I know the truth
is that I always think of youChorus:
Someday someway
together we will be baby
I will take and you will take your time
We'll wait for our fate
cos' nobody owns us baby
We can shake we can shake the rockTry to throw the picture out of my mind
try to leave the memories behind
Here by the ocean
wave's carry voices from you
Do you know the truth
I am thinking of you tooChorus:
Someday someway
together we will be baby...The love we had together
just fades away in time
And now you've got your own world
and I guess I've got mine
But the passion that you planted
in the middle of my heart
is a passion that will never stop
Drifting back to a time gone by
She was in my life
Now I'm watching her from my carSomeone bought her roller skates
God am I too late?
Did somebody else take my place?She's getting closer
And as I roll the window down
I spoke and then she turned around
I said:There is something you should know
I could never let you go
Because I miss you so
Baby when the time is right
Together we will fight
To get you in my lifeLooking back through misty eyes
But with a father's pride
I drive away in my carIt doesn't matter baby
If it takes a year or two
Someday
You're gonna find the truth
I thoughtThere is something you should know
I could never let you go
Because I miss you so
Baby when the time is right
Together we will fight
To get you in my lifeThere is something you should know
I could never let you go
Because I miss you so
Baby when the time is right
Together we will fight
To get you in my life
Strange foreign beauty
I'll never know what¡¦s in your heart
Does anyone know how it feels to hold you?
Does anyone know the secret of your mind?Strange foreign beauty
I'll never come to share your world
Does anyone know how it feels to live with you?
Does anyone know the secret of your life?Strange foreign beauty
You'll never know what I feel for you
Sometimes it feels like a million chances
Are slipping away disappearing in the airStrange foreign beauty
Strange foreign beautyNever know what I felt for you
You were always on my mind
Never know how it feels to hold you
How it feels to be with you
Somewhere inside I can feel it coming
It's gonna rain where it never rained before
The air is clear and the view is stunning
I was on the road to nowhere
then I had a vision so clearChorus: Stuck in the heat of her eyes
Trapped in the heat of the night
Long before I realized I was
stuck in the heat of her eyesSomewhere inside the ice is melting
Sun's gonna shine where it never shone before
She's like spring and it's overwhelming
First she told me now or never
then she changed my plans foreverChorus: Stuck in the heat of her eyes
Trapped in the heat of the night
Long before I realized I was
stuck in the heat of her eyesOutro: I was on my way to somewhere
She was dancing with flowers in her hair
I was running away from something
But then she showed me that I could really care
Tell it to your heart
everyone's a star
So she said
And landed in the street early one morning
right in front of me she threw out her spellTell it to your mind
leave it all behind
Now we will spread our wings and fly under the great skies
through the night so blue
I'm holding on to youChorus:
She came to me like an angel
when everything was torn apart
Erasing all the madness
she came and blessed a broken heartListen to the sound
Grace is all around
You will see
So invisible and so insane in the darkest blue
It's waiting for youChorus:
She came to me like an angel
when everything was torn apart
Erasing all the madness
she came and blessed a broken heartNo reason to forget
No reason to regret
No reason to deny
And time for asking whyChorus:
She came to me like an angel
when everything was torn apart
Erasing all the madness
she came and blessed a broken heart
Baby won't you tell me why
There is sadness in your eyes
I don't wanna say goodbye to you
Love is one big illusion
I should try to forget
But there is something left in my headYou're the one who set it up
Now you're the one to make it stop
I'm the one who's feeling lost right now
Now you want me to forget
Every little thing you said
But there is something left in my headI won't forget the way you're kissing
The feeling's so strong
Were lasting for so long
But I'm not the man
Your heart is missing
That's why you go away, I knowYou were never satisfied
No matter how I tried
Now you wanna say goodbye to me
Love is one big illusion
I should try to forget
But there is something left in my head(Refrain)
Sitting here all alone in the middle of nowhere
Don't know which way to go
There ain't so much to say now between us
There ain't so much for you
There ain't so much for me anymore
He takes you out and he takes you up
Cause he can show you so much
I go to bed and tomorrow again
There's a lot of work to be doneHe gives you gold and he'll promise you
The whole world will be yours
I just can tell you I love you so
Even though my odds are lowI'm not an actor I'm not a star
And I don't even have my own car
But I'm hoping so much you'll stay
That you will love me anywayThe dirty games and the neon shows
This is the world he knows
Watching the stars satisfies my soul
Thinking of him makes me feel so coldThe fancy cars and the restaurants
You're just so fond of the man
Sometimes I wonder if you are blind
Can't you see, he's got dirt on his mindI'm not an actor I'm not a star
And I don't even have my own car
But I'm hoping so much you'll stay
That you will love me anyway
Summer's ended and without a trace
Time goes by while you remain
Funny how I thought I walked on through
With my heart in oneWhy do I still cry for you
Dying to get close to you
Why do I still fear to face
The ghost of you
How I tried to get you off my mind
But you return all the time
I believed I could just let you go
Like the fool I amBaby, why do I still cry for you
Dying to get close to you
Oh baby, why do I still fear to face
The ghost of youI've been trying to release you
To get my feet back on the ground
Still I need my hope to hold on to
Even if I know I should back away
It's just a part of me that I can't eraseBaby, why do I still cry for you
Dying to get close to you
Oh baby, why do I still fear to face
The ghost of youBaby, baby why
Anyway I try I'm still reminded (The ghost of you)
Anywhere I go I keep colliding with (The ghost of you)
I've given up I just can't fight it (The ghost of you)Every time I look away I see
The ghost of you
In her eyes you see
she'll bring you down to your knees
And your mind will bend
She'll get to you in the endThe wolf inside her is never satisfied
She's like a spider and you could be the flyChorus:
Hold on
She's like a love attack
you better watch your back
Cause you don't wanna be the victim of her crazy fantasiesWhen you feel her breath
you stutter an S.O.S.
The queen of hearts
is coming to tear you apartShe brings some heavy weather on you
Your brain gets cloudy
There's nothing you can do
Chorus:
Hold on
She's like a love attack
you better watch your back
Cause you don't wanna be the victim of her crazy fantasies
So you better face the fact
and take a big step back
Cause you don't wanna be the victim of her crazy fantasiesDon't wanna loose yourself in her
Don't wanna take that chanceChorus:
Hold on...
You made me crawl feeling so small
Creeping like shapes along the wallsLife fades to gray
Why must I pay
for giving my heart awayChorus:
But whatever it may take
However my heart breaks
I'll keep singing in the rain
'till your back againYou left a hole deep in my soul
leaving my world so coldBut standing eye to eye
I still wonder why
we had to say goodbyeChorus:
And whatever it may take
However my heart breakes
I'll keep singing in the rain
'till your back again
and whoever that changed your mind
whoever that makes you blind
I'll keep waiting here for youAll I ventured but nothing gained
I'm walking through the rain
Trying to keep a fading flame aliveHelp!
Help me
Baby I'm lonely oh so lonelyWill I ever feel your love again
Am I really losing you my friend
Your absent talking your missing light
Makes me lonely on a Saturday night
Can I act like an angel
If I live like a jerk
Can I keep on disguising
Can I make believe
That I don't deceive
No, no, noSend the wild women out the backdoor
My wife's knocking at the front door
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doDirty money in the left hand
While the preacher's shaking my right hand
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doWhen I'm riding on top of
The wave of success
Will I lose my devotion
Will I fail to see
What I used to be
Oh, oh, ohSend the wild women out the backdoor
My wife's knocking at the front door
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doDirty money in the left hand
While the preacher's shaking my right hand
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doI'll have to carry on as two persons in one
Two persons in one, two persons in oneSend the wild women out the backdoor
My wife's knocking at the front door
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doDirty money in the left hand
While the preacher's shaking my right hand
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doSend the wild women out the backdoor
My wife's knocking at the front door
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doDirty money in the left hand
While the preacher's shaking my right hand
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doSend the wild women out the backdoor
My wife's knocking at the front door
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to doDirty money in the left hand
While the preacher's shaking my right hand
They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to d
Staring at the moon so blue
Turning all my thoughts to you
I was without hopes or dreams
I tried to dull an inner scream
But you...
Saw me throughWalking on a path of airs
See your faces everywhere
As you melt this heart of stone
You take my hand to guide me home
And now...
I'm in loveYou took my heart away
When my whole world was gray
You gave me everything
And a little bit more
And when it's cold at night
And you sleep by my side
You become the meaning of my lifeLiving in a world so cold (living in a world so cold)
You are there to warm my soul (you are there to warm my soul)
You came to mend a broken heart
You gave my life a brand new start
And now...
I'm in loveYou took my heart away
When my whole world was gray
You gave me everything
And a little bit more
And when it's cold at night
And you sleep by my side
You become the meaning of my lifeHolding your hand
I won't fear tomorrow
Here where we stand
We'll never be aloneYou took my heart away
When my whole world was gray
You gave me everything
And a little bit more
And when it's cold at night
And you sleep by my side
You become the meaning of my life
You become the meaning of my life
You become the meaning
You become the meaning of my life
