Project One

Lyrics by Uli Krücken

I've been waiting for you
I'm standing in the rain here for hours
such a long long time
I'm drenched to the bone and it's cold

watching the wheels , the world goes round
you and me now and forever
Now that you're gone after all this time
feels like I'm lost in a crowd

All the games that we played
The promise we gave to each other
Now it's all gone and all we have done'
stuck for the rest of our days

Burning the bridges, burn down the house
Throw down the sword it's all over
Find someone new, here you go again
It'always the price that you pay.

Refrain:
Stop, just fools rush in,
where angels fear to tread and when I feel that
My lifeboat burns and I'm down on my knees
try to catch a falling star you'll see they had all gone
Stop, just fools rush in, where angels fear to tread

Lyrics by Uli Krücken

Excuse me, may I introduce myself
My name is Bob, I'm the king of pop
I'm working all day or whatever they want,
my life so secret that my wife doesn't know
where I walk around or where ever I go
doesn't know about my girlfriend,
she doesn't know, too
that I'm just married, this ist the clou

This ist the world, I`m living in
I don't know, where to begin
To tell the story of my double life
But now I ain't got time, it's half past five

Refrain:
It'showtime, stagelights on, this is my world
The cameras and the microphones it's like a drug
Stage-fright after all these years
The audience moved to tears
The light dies down
Let the show begin

The guardian asked for an interview
Ed Sullivan wants me for a late night show
BBC and CNN want me to produce
Whatever I can
The crowd is cheering, my heart's beatin fast
I hope I'm going to survive at last
The after show parties put me over the edge
But now it's time for another hot match
It'showtime, stagelights on, this is my world
The cameras and the microphones it's like a drug
Stage-fright after all these years
The audience moved to tears
The light dies down
Let the show begin

On and on straight ahead till the last curtain falls
Night and day, one more time, fishing for applause

Lyrics by Uli Krücken
Dressed in black with guns and swords
they cut their people down,
and waste their land.
They bushwhacked men and little kids
And burned their barracks down
. I was all eyes to help them
Too late I heard their cries.

Blood was running down their cheeks,
I saw many broken eyes
Pregnant women disembowled
Survivors waved their hands to say good bye

And all these sons and daughters
Remaining in their minds
They hope they found their last resort
To meet again in paradise

And in the darkness of the night
so many left their home and lost their land
so many lost their last resort
so many lost their life at last
the hunters following so fast
it's not too late to try the flight at night

Lyrics by Uli Krücken

50 men, and what we wear, all that we could carry
Only memories of our lives, while entering the ferry
Told us a story of a rich foreign land
Life is calm and peaceful there,but changes came and went.

That's all we own, and the stone
We're crawling under all alone
This stone is lifted up our shoulders
This stone is lifted up our shoulders
darkness creeps in like a thief
in the distance I see light
a churchbell's heard from far away
the price we had to pay
I see the fear of death in their eyes
We were told a thousend lies
Spend our last bill to reach a boat
We`re gonna carry a heavy load
Maybe one oft he last things we do is
To write down all the things we've been through
The long way from home, the place we were born
The Captain blows the horn
Refrain:
We are boat people, boat people, still alive
We are boat people, boat people, trying to survive.
Paddles cut the water fast, trying to reach the coast at last
Up and down the boat is turning, round and round, children yearning
I believe
Chances narrow that we make it, no way back, no time to take
All we can is fight the waters,no one heard the Captain's orders

The storm's still raging and the rain
Pouring down, the scene is strange
Someone's going overboard
Someone prays but there's no god

An empty boat drifts on the sea
No Captain and no refugee
Only some of what we wore
Is driftin towards the shore.

This stone was lifted up our shoulders.

Lyrics by Uli Krücken
I heard it late last night, that you're no longer here
My heart was filled with anger, it was filled with fear
Maybe there's a reason why, maybe it was clear
Look what you've done to them, watch their stream of tears

Just see, what you wanna see, but nothing is what it seems to be
Whatever you think is true, just coming out of the blue

It's just imagination, reflections of your dreams
Some kind of interaction, there's no light in between

There you sit, by the river, watching the waters glide by
you feel so sad and you shiver, another friend you're grieving for
the devil's knocking on your door
then someone's tucking on your sleeve, you can't regret what you believe

the waters catching your reflection, you're someone else, a disconnection
Is this real, is this your life, Is this what you're longing for?
Round and round we walk, what we don't understand
we can't explain why we are here, in this so called promised land

The change of tides, of day and night
And why darkness turns to light
So many well watched mysteries
Around the life of plants and trees
Oh can you tell me why
Who's to live and who's to die
And so you find that no one knows the answer
Just ask your phantasy
Looking up to the sky , the clouds have disappeared
And in the fading light it looks like you were here
Stillness is surrounding me and no bird to be heard
And in the distance I see, fuzzy shapes of words

Just see, what you wanna see
But nothing is what it seems to be
Whatever you think is true
Just coming out of the blue
Just see, what you wanna see
But nothing is what it seems to be
Whatever you think is true is
Just coming out of the blue

Lyrics by Uli Krücken

Riding through the pouring rain
in a slow rolling van, in our Caravan
its a mean job to do but, we're a hard working crew, in our Caravan
From New York to LA, in every motel we stay, such a boring place
When I try to bring you up, in a smalltown pub
in these boring days

so far, so far away alone
in the car, in the car we feel like home
Every night another show
in the van we're riding slow, from town to town
we play the hangover blues
in our blue suede shoes, we go on and on
Refrain:
In the Caravan of rock'n' roll
in the Caravan- out of control
in the back of this old Camping car
we were having fun on its whiskey-bar
In the Caravan of rock'n' roll
in the caravan out of controll
we were having fun -on its whiskey bar.

Looking out on the street
I am fallin asleep
and I'm dreaming of home
I see a movie of you
and the things we've been through
well Im dreaming of home

I wake up I am alone
so far away from home
straight ahead we're movin on
the show goes on down the lane

Refrain:
In the Caravan of rock'n' roll
in the Caravan - out of control
in the back of this old Camping car
we were having fun on its whiskey-bar
In the Caravan - of rock'n' roll
in the caravan out of controll
we were having fun -on its whiskey bar.
