goodnight

Say goodnight, not goodbye
You will never leave my heart behind
Like the path of a star
I'll be anywhere you are
In the spark that lies beneath the coals
In the secret place inside your soul

Keep my light in your eyes
Say goodnight, not goodbye

Don't you fear, when you dream
Waking up is never what it seems
Like a jewel, buried deep
Like a promise meant to keep
You are everything you want to be
So just let your heart reach out to me

Keep my light, in your eyes
Say goodnight, not goodbye

Say goodnight, not goodbye

and it's contagious!

They made a statue of us
And it put it on a mountaintop
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum
Take photographs have fun, have fun

They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault
Then they'll give us a talking to
Then they'll give us a talking to
Because they've got years of experience

We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

da apprezzare al secondo ascolto

a malinconia, tutti nell’angolo tutti che piangono,
toccano il fondo come l’andrea doria
chi lavora non tiene dimora, tutti in mutande, non quelle di borat
la gente è sola, beve poi soffoca come john bohnam
...
per pagare le spese bastava un diploma, non fare la star o l’icona
né buttarsi in politica con i curricula presi da staller ilona

goodbye malinconia
come ti sei ridotta in questo stato?
goodbye malinconia
dimmi chi ti ha ridotta in questo stato
goodbye malinconia
come ti sei ridotta in questo stato?
goodbye malinconia
dimmi chi ti ha ridotta in questo stato d’animo

we had it all, fools we let it slip away

every step was out of place
and in this world we fell from grace,
looking back we lost our way,
an innocent time we all betrayed
and in time can we all learn,
not to crawl away and burn
stand up and don’t fall down
be a king for a day,
in man we all pray
