Lyrics:
Listen to my stories
I’ve got so much to tell
Listen to my heartbeat
when it speaks without it’s shell
We are strong enough to
climb a mountain high
How come we are blind to see
the rainbows in the sky
[Chorus]
We are life
We are life
We are life
We are alive
I feel like a baby,
warm and satisfied
And I feel like a child
when I can dance around
And we can be proud of
who we are inside
Nobody to blame or
none to be ashamed of tonight
[Chorus] 2x
We are life, we are life
We are life, we are alive
We are alive, we are alive
We are alive

Go With You
02:57
|
|||
Come on, come on
Today we start walking
Following you wherever you may go
I wanna let you know
So I run and I run
But you’re getting faster
Don’t get me wrong now
I don’t wanna take it slow
I wanna let you know
[Chorus]
That I, I, I, I, I, I,
I wanna go-o-oh, wo-oh-oh
With you-woohooooo
With you-woohooooo
2x
Come on, come on
Today we start walking
Travel the world
We’re followed by the sun
It’s gonna make us one
So when the rain is fallin’
We will find shelter
Under the covers
You will keep me warm
And help me through the storm
[Chorus]
Let go, let go
Let’s keep on walking
Let go, let go
We don’t need no talking
Let go, let go
Let’s keep on walking
Let’s go, let go
[Chorus]
Come on, come on
Today we start walking
Come on, come on
Come on…

Train
03:29
|
|||
Take the train as it goes its way
Are you in or are you out?
Set aside all your fears and cries
No excuses are allowed
So hop on board
What are you waiting for?
[Chorus]
Hey now, don't you let your heart down
You have come so far now
Don’t you let it go!
And hey now, you can let your head hang
Or you can go so far and
Never let it go
So hop on board...
Take the train before it slips away
And it blows up in your face
Watch the show
You will own the road
Take a chance on the unknown
So hop on board
What are you waiting for?
[Chorus]
Here we GO!!
[Chorus]

Annie
04:47
|
|||
She goes, far away
To find some adventure in her life
She knows that he will stay
She won’t see no begging in his eyes
Hey Annie, don’t you cry
Someone will come to share your life
It’s amazing how you manage to swim
In that big blue ocean looking for him
[Chorus]
So she goes, she won’t follow
She won’t follow
And she waits, he will follow
He will follow
So there she is in her dreams,
behind a tree so she can’t see,
a glimpse of the world
she don’t want to be in
Behind the trees there is love,
and she’s not scared
to fix the mistakes,
no matter how long it takes
So Annie travels form town to town
To make sure that her love is found
[Chorus]
Hey Annie, don’t you cry
Someone will come to share your life
Tonight you gotta sleep and know
That Annie you are beautiful
Whoahooooh, you are beautiful
You are beautiful
Wait, you are beautiful
You are beautiful yeah
[Chorus]

The Festival
03:10
|
|||
Welcome to the festival
Where everyone can fall out of dispair
Show your ticket at the gate
Leave your lying and your hatred all behind
And I, I went to see the band
Who’s playing all the songs stuck in my head
We all want something for ourselves
Butter, milk and eggs is enough for me
[Chorus]
oooohhh oooohhh oooohhh
oooohhh oooohhh oooohhh
Your eyes are talking in their sleep
‘Cause they can barely keep
The secrets from your mind
Poor little baby child
Still living inside
Running from the beast
And you, and you, and you and I
We’re gonna have the best time of our lives
Sing on top of your lungs
The festival has only just begun
[Chorus]
When the rain falls down
Are you still singing like: oooohooohhh
When the rain falls down
Will you still entertain the crowd
[Chorus]

Able To Fall
03:31
|
|||
Put your face in the water
So your tears won’t dry
Tie your hands together
You don’t have to fly
Then you’ll never be able to fall
You will never be able to risk it all
[Chorus]
Put your hands in the water
Wet your face
No more sadness to come
and no more pain
I wont be back for endless days
Untill I fall, and fly away
Untill I fall, and fly away
Cover your heart with a harness
So you don’t have to feel
Build your home with stones
So you never have to leave
But then you’ll never be able to fall
You will never be able to risk it all
[Chorus]
Doodoodoooodooo…
But you have to be able to fall
You have to be able to risk it all
Take the fall!
[Chorus] 2x
Doodoodoooodooo…
Untill I fall, and fly away
Untill I fall, and fly away
Untill I fall, and fly away…

The Wolves
05:07
|
|||
Footsteps of silence
Are running through the night
The moon tries to follow
Your past tries to hide
No, run for your life
Oh, hear the wolves cry
[Chorus]
Woohhh, a-woohhh, a-woohoooh
Woohhh, a-woohhh, a-woohoooh
Have mercy, have mercy, no
Woohhh, a-woohhh, a-woohoooh
Resist the temptation
Of never going back
Because you can defeat them
You’ll catch them if you can
No, run for your life
Oh, hear the wolves cry
[Chorus]
Hear the wolves cry
[Chorus]

Rollin'
03:26
|
|||
Up to the mountains there you go
In the mountains you can be alone
And your back carries the load
Building your own home with
sticks and stones
Roll ‘cause your heart never lets go
Roll ‘cause you know the waves are
there to break your fall
[Chorus]
Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’, rollin’ rollin’ rollin’
Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’
Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’, rollin’ rollin’ rollin’
Let me in
Up the mountain there you are
Watchin’ over all your fears and scars
But in your eyes I’ll never see
How you desperately
want to be free
Roll ‘cause your heart never lets go
Roll ‘cause you know the waves are
there to break your fall
[Chorus]
At the bottom of the sea
Is where I want to be
I can almost feel the waves
Rollin’ over me
I have to let you go
And feel the release
So I can feel the waves
Rollin’ over me
[Chorus]

So Beautiful
03:29
|
|||
Love yourself
You can count the stars in your life
When darkness falls
They will still survive
They will shine
Look at them shine
You are like a flower confronting the cold
You know the brighter the sun
The faster you fade so
You need the rain, need the rain
[Chorus]
Oooohhh, you’re beautiful
Oooohhh, you feel the water flow
Oooohhh, so beautiful
Oooohhh
You need the rain, need the rain
Embrace your sadness and feel it flow
Stand still, get soaked to the bone
Your heart gets tired
It’s time to welcome the stain
You need the rain, need the rain
[Chorus]
All the fish in the water
Make it so hard
To search for the sea
You feel in your heart
You knew from the start
What you want to become
Aaahooooohhh, you’re beautiful
Aaahooooohhh, so beautiful
But you need the rain
Need the rain

Live Forever
02:43
|
|||
We envy all the people
Who are pretty and much thinner
But love yourself the way you are
And you become the winner
We forget that when the truth comes out
We have to stick together
So grab a hand and dance tonight
And we can live forever
[Chorus]
Take your feet
And dance
Take your feet and dance
Now it’s time for you to row the boat
The x’s mark the treasure
You’re the pirate and I’m the gold
Can’t do without each other
When dinner is done and the rum is gone
No reason for an ending
Just grab a hand and dance tonight
And we can live forever
[Chorus]
HEY !
[Chorus]

It's OK
03:13
|
|||
I have so much to give you
Still you don’t want to recieve
I am your friend
Is it the one way
Or is it the other
That I have to believe
[Chorus]
I will help you
I understand, I understand
I will give you
My helping hand, my helping hand
I know you don’t see
But it’s ok, yeah it’s ok
Yeah it’s ok
I have so much to live for
So much to share with you
So give me your hand
And we will move forward
The key to the closet is mine
[Chorus]
This cold cold winter
That never ends
You leave me standing
But it’s ok, yeah it’s ok.
Yeah it’s ok!
[Chorus]
‘Cause I will help you understand
And I will give my helping hand
I know you don’t see
But it’s ok, yeah it’s ok (4x)
Yeah it’s ok!
