Anouk Album

Baby why you're so sad
What's the thing you're running from
Caught in the red lights
As if money is the cure
Is this your only way to survive
Are you trying to get even with the past
What happened to the dreams you had
I think it's time for you to

Show them you are able
To leave without saying one word
I know it won't be easy, baby
But I will run with you

'Cause every night has a day
Every wish a prayer
Don't loose your faith
And I'll be holding your hand
'Cause it's never too late
There's someone who needs you

So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there waiting
Just tear down that wall, girl
Run away and don't look back
Break down that wall
Break down that wall
There's someone who needs you

Lady it's your turn now
Just walk the streets with your head up high
Oh baby doesn't that feel right
So put a big smile on your face

You walk on straight
Yeah tell the motherfuckers they were wrong
Isn't this your sweetest revenge
Feels good, hey I told you so

'Cause every night has a day
Every wish has a prayer
Don't loose your faith
And I'll be holding your hand
'Cause it's never too late
There's someone who needs you

So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there waiting
Just tear down that wall, girl
Run away and don't look back
Break down that wall
Break down that wall

So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there
Tear down that wall, girl
Run away run away run away
Break down that wall
Break down that wall

Last time you're breaking my heart it's the last time
Last time im falling apart its the last time
Took a while to even up the score
Its the last time baby once more.
Last time youre breaking my heart its the last time

Last time once again its the
Last time im on my own again
How could ive been so blind
How could ive been so blind.

How could you take me for granted all these years
You kept telling me no it won't happen again.
But everytime I turn around you stab me in the back
Your perfect smile aint flashing anymore
Your magic gone boy.

This time im breaking youre heart its my turn now
Its my turn to let you fall apart im gonna make eyes burn.

And what I really have learned from this
Is that im never gonna follow my heart agina.
Wholl treat you like a dog like they just dont care.
Im gonna watch my steps before I get me some ass.
This is this is the last time

How could you take me for granted all these years.
You kept telling me no it wont happen again.

Music & Lyrics: A. Teeuwe / B. van Veen

No hurry, I'll be waiting for you My baby,
now don't you worry
I'll be fine

Just take your time
To make up your mind
Draw a line
Or flip a dime
Waiting for you

It's easy,
if you want to please me
Don't tell me maybe
Come back home complete me

No strings attached
That's a promise I can't keep
So I waste my time
With lazy crazy dreaming
A sparkling wine
A twist of lime
A whisky soda, hole in time
When you're not here

Don't say you're sorry
Don't say it
No

Who's the one that makes you happy
Who's the one that always makes you laugh
Who's the reason you're smiling
And dragged you through these time, so rough
I was the one that made you happy
I was the one that eased the pain
But I'm the reason that you're crying now
My own tears scattered by the rain

You can sacrifice me
You can sacrifice me
You can set me free
You can be who you wanna be

Deeper than deep you took me on a trip baby
You shared your wildest dreams and more
You dare me to express my feelings to you
I never felt that need before

But suddenly you needed freedom
You felt the need to break free
You started drowning in your sorrow
You didn't wanna know I had the key

You can sacrifice me
You can sacrifice me
You can set me free
You can be who you wanna to be

You can sacrifice me, sacrifice me
You can be who you wanna

I have drunk virginia water
I have dug my own gravesend
set my foot ashore in new port
travelled far beyond my landsend
and home is in my head
I have dived into a blackpool
with a maidstone around my neck
I just drifted into the southsea
with no hull beyond my deck

and home is in my head
well I have lost a wheel in barrow
try to cross the no one cambridge
when my liverpool grey shallow

You walked in and drop the bomb you're tellin' me
You got sacked today
Gambled away the money that I put aside
And that Jill is having your baby
Now you're sorry and you want to come clean,
Well thank you anyway
So go ahead now and shoot me redemption
Redemption from you

Did I ever tell you your mother is a bitch
For giving birth to someone like you
Now you're stuck with me
How come you never please me
Tellin' me lies makin' me analyse
Can I have a minute here hey hello
I'm here to tell you bye
See you fuck you
Oh there goes my bell I am going away
I'm gonna get laid but not by you
I'm through with you
I'm goin' away I'm gonna get laid but not by you
I'm through with you
Come on come on

Hold your fucking horses
You can have what is yours
I will slit it cut life short
Ain't nobody's wife no more
My bitch for life if you might come back
You will find me dead bleeding on your floor
Are you sure

You're about to slit your wrists could you first listen to me
So you wanne leave it all behind but then
Always someone's gonna miss you
There is always someone who needs you here so put the knife down
Take a gun instead

So go ahead now and shoot me redemption
Redemption from you

This is what it's gonna be you ain't gonna change no more
That's something I can tell you that's for sure
All you ever say is c'est la vie I'm not gonna take it no more
Come on boy please me

Just go ahead and shoot me redemption

It's easier not to be wise
and measure these things by your brains
I sank into Eden with you
Alone in the church by and by
I'll read to you here, save your eyes,
You'll need them your boat is at sea
Your anchor is up, you've been swept away
and the greatest of teacher's won't hesistate
to leave you there by yourself
chained to faith
I alone love you,
I alone tempt you
I alone love you,
fear is not the end of this!
I alone love you,
I alone tempt you
I alone love you...
It's easier not to be great,
and measure these things by your eyes
We long to be here by His resolve
Alone in the church by and by
to cradle the baby in space
and leave you there by yourself
chained to faith
I alone love you,
I alone tempt you
I alone love you,
fear is not the end of this!
I alone love you,
I alone tempt you
I alone love you
Yeah
I alone love you
OH, now, we took it back too far
only love can save us now
all these riddles that you burn
all come running back to you
all these rhythms that you hide
only love can save us now
all these riddles that you burn
YEAH YEAH YEAH!!
I alone love you,
I alone tempt you
I alone love you,
fear is not the end of this!
I alone love you,
I alone tempt you,
I alone love you,
(yeah-ah-oooooo--yeah-ah ooo...)
I alone tempt you,

I'm sorry for the times that I made you scream
for the times that I killed your dreams
for the times that I made your whole world rumble
for the times that I made you cry
for the times that I told you lies
for the times that I watched and let you stumble

It's too bad, but that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, 'cause I, I'll never be nobody's wife

I'm sorry for the times that I didn't come home
left you lyin' in that bed alone
was flyin' high in the sky when you needed my shoulder

you're like a stone hangin' round my neck, see
cut it loose before it breaks my back, see
I've gotta say what I feel before I grow older

I'm sorry but I ain't gonna change my ways
you know I've tried but I'm still the same
I've got to do it my own way

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life
I'm suckin' out his love, I, I'll never be nobody's wife

It's too bad, but hey, that's me
what goes around comes around, you'll see
that I can carry the burden of pain
'cause it ain't the first time that a man goes insane
and when I spread my wings to embrace him for life

Well if you leave in dusty twilight baby, that's OK,
'Cause there are women at the bar to greet you everyday.
And you can take them back to lie with you and this in Jamie's room,
But they can never take the pain away or brighten all the gloom,
And if your hands are clenched in sorrow, may it help you ease your pain,
Though the windows have a view of city rain, city rain...
And if you walk in constant sorrow and you cry for me,
May it hit the painful memories, maybe then you'll see,
That if you drown yourself in liquor, because it keeps you company,
Then just remember who you're loosing, and be proud to set me free,
Because it don't talk back or disagree, it just make you see so hazily,
But in the morning light your life is scattered with the wind, scattered with
the wind...

Well they tell you on the telephone to let him go,
I said they tell you he's a sinking ship, and he's trying to pull you down,
Don' t you know, that every time you call me up and say you want me back you
know you break my heart,
You said you want me to come back home and try again, you want me to make a
brand new start,
But if wisdom says to let him go, then it's hell, because you just don't know,
Until you've tried to love a man who's lovin' whiskey, lovin' whiskey...

My baby left me for the bottle and the lure of the nightlife,
Good times and crazy women and another glass of Tangueray,
But if wisdom says to let him go, then it's hell, because you just don't know,

Last time you're breaking my heart it's the last time
Last time im falling apart its the last time
Took a while to even up the score
Its the last time baby once more.
Last time youre breaking my heart its the last time

Last time once again its the
Last time im on my own again
How could ive been so blind
How could ive been so blind.

How could you take me for granted all these years
You kept telling me no it won't happen again.
But everytime I turn around you stab me in the back
Your perfect smile aint flashing anymore
Your magic gone boy.

This time im breaking youre heart its my turn now
Its my turn to let you fall apart im gonna make eyes burn.

And what I really have learned from this
Is that im never gonna follow my heart agina.
Wholl treat you like a dog like they just dont care.
Im gonna watch my steps before I get me some ass.
This is this is the last time

How could you take me for granted all these years.
You kept telling me no it wont happen again.

I'm just thinkin' about the child in me,
That I sometimes feel inside
And I'm figuring out just what it is
That makes me feel so small
Is it you, that hurts me when I give myself
Every day and every night
Am I too blind to see that it doesn't work out
Did I really ask too much of you baby
Do you mean to tell me that's the way it is
Do you mean to say

It's all so hard, It's so hard
It's all so hard, It's so hard

As I search for an answer, I see the clear blue sky
And I know that you're the one to blame
And I feel so naïve
When you say that our love to you was just a game
I dream, my dream, I'm sane, I'm insane
Oh, please don't, please don't speak to me that way
Do you mean to tell me that's the way it is
Do you mean to say

It's all so hard, It's so hard
It's all so hard, It's so hard
Damned it's so hard, why you're so hard

Baby why you're so sad
What's the thing you're running from
Caught in the red lights
As if money is the cure
Is this your only way to survive
Are you trying to get even with the past
What happened to the dreams you had
I think it's time for you to

Show them you are able
To leave without saying one word
I know it won't be easy, baby
But I will run with you

'Cause every night has a day
Every wish a prayer
Don't loose your faith
And I'll be holding your hand
'Cause it's never too late
There's someone who needs you

So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there waiting
Just tear down that wall, girl
Run away and don't look back
Break down that wall
Break down that wall
There's someone who needs you

Lady it's your turn now
Just walk the streets with your head up high
Oh baby doesn't that feel right
So put a big smile on your face

You walk on straight
Yeah tell the motherfuckers they were wrong
Isn't this your sweetest revenge
Feels good, hey I told you so

'Cause every night has a day
Every wish has a prayer
Don't loose your faith
And I'll be holding your hand
'Cause it's never too late
There's someone who needs you

So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there waiting
Just tear down that wall, girl
Run away and don't look back
Break down that wall
Break down that wall

So break down that wall, baby
There's a new world out there
Tear down that wall, girl
Run away run away run away
Break down that wall
Break down that wall

No hurry, I'll be waiting for you My baby,

I'll be fine

Just take your time
To make up your mind
Draw a line
Or flip a dime
Waiting for you

It's easy,

Don't tell me maybe
Come back home complete me

No strings attached
That's a promise I can't keep
So I waste my time
With lazy crazy dreaming
A sparkling wine

A whisky soda, hole in time
When you're not here

Don't say you're sorry
Don't say it
No

Music & Lyrics: A. Teeuwe / B. van Veen

So many times I've cried
When dark clouds block the sunlight
And it's raining in my heart
I'll keep my head up high

So little time to try
To find out, about the feeling
That's deep inside of you
And keeps the dream alive

So remember
When you're down and out
In the sand

So many minds are torn
By overloading senses
You're breathing in and out
No second left to sigh

Can you tell me why
Nobody will tell me
What they're feeling deep inside
We're all just telling lies

Every time you wonder
Why the feeling lingers
And it's stuck inside your soul
You're crying when you smile

So remember
When you're down and out

When you're stuck in the middle
When you can't solve the riddle
Lay it down in the sand
When you can't help but shiver
Get you finger off the trigger
Lay it down in the sand

Get it out your head
Out of your hands
Lay it down in the sand
So remember
When you're down and out
When everything's missing
And there's nobody listening
Lay it down in the sand
When you can't help but shiver
Get you finger off the trigger
Lay it down in the sand

Get it out your head
Out of your hands
Lay it down

Music & lyrics: A. Teeuwe / B. van Veen

Sure got my piece of heaven
An angel in disguise
Gone wild

But I thought you were a man
Who knew right from wrong
That's why I really don't understand
Why he's with her

It's killing me
What has she got that I don't have
Is it the way she looks at you
Laughs with you, can she,
Does she make you beg for more
This is hurting
What has she got that I don't have

I tried to call him
Anytime anywhere
But he's never there

So I went to his place
And waited all day
So he would explain it to me
And this is what he said:

There is nothing left to say
I had my fill, I went away
Your crying eyes won't change a thing
It was just a fling

Well how could an angel break my heart
He said: We could still be friends

Are you kidding me
What has she got that I don't have
Is it the way she looks at you
Talks to you, can she
Does she make you beg for more
This is hurting
What has she got that i don't have

But twice every year
When he's in tears
When he loses his mind
And can't help but cry
He'll call me and then
