ALL SONG LYRICS (scroll down)

With Tears In My Eyes
T.Sending

A broken heart, it takes so long to mend
Oh yeah you feel like you`ll never love again
But through the darkness, please try to see the light
Cause i`m ready for the fight
For what i did wrong and what i did right

Well, we needed the money, what could we do?
There was no work left, let`s face the truth
But I had my guitar, I had the road and the band
So please, little sunshine, please try to understand

Chorus :

Old photographs, bring memories back
From the time that we had
It should`ve been paradise, with a son and a wife
But I had to leave with tears in my eyes

All I`ve got left now, is my photographs
Of my son raising his arms against the wind
He`s just like a night-bird, who`s `bout to rise his wings
With his blue, blue eyes and his daddy`s lonely smile

Hour after hour, day by da
I`m searching for the reason why it always goes that way
But I can keep on dreamin` , in my fantasy
That we`ll some day meet again, and then we`ll make a family


Chours twice:
Let Me Be Yours (once again)
T.Sending

I`d like to get you by my side
I swear girl, I`ve got nothing more to hide
You can walk down the street on your high-heel
Shoes
Oh yeah, this time you can do whatever you want do
Do

Chorus:

So let me be yours, once again
Let me be yours, once again
I`ve realized what a fool I was
Who run away now and then
But let me be yours, once again

This time, I`m gonna` tell you the truth
This time, I`m gonna` tell you what I`ll do
Cause I`m willin` to leave her for you
Cause I`m just the same old dancer
In the same old shoes

Chorus twice:

Thats The Way I Feel Today
T.Sending

Many years have gone, since you belonged to me
Many tears have falled, since you decided to be Free
I wish we could have some fun, baby, I wish we could
Play the game
I wanna make love in the sun, baby, but would it be
The same?
Would you hold me like a child?
The way you used to do
Wouls you whisper in my ear?
That you love me to

Chorus:

That`s the way i feel today
When I see you turn around some other way
That`s the way i feel today
Oh, Lord, how many times do I have to pray ?

I wish we could teach each other to keep the love
We had
To play the game from the beginning and don`t let it
End so sad
If you ain`t gonna`go to that bar, baby
If you ain`t gonna` have some have some fun
Let me hold you in my arms, baby
when the tears are ready to come
But I wonder if it was just my fault
That it happened the way it did
I know we had our fights, girl
But I was just a kid

Chorus
I Still Love You
T.Sending

I asked you, if you would sing in my band
with a love-light in your eyes, you said yes
Yeah, do you want to, will you sing with me tonight?
You said yes, and i felt that you didn`t lie

We sang "Good-hearted-woman", and "Please
take a seat"
We sang "Sweet home, Alabama", and "Willin`" by
Little Feat
You sang better than i thought you could do
Oh, singing girl, I still love you

Chorus:

I still love you, with all of my heart
I still love you, in daylight and the dark
I still love you, yeah I wish we could sing again
It`s such a shame that our friendship had to end

All was fine, untill the fiddler came into the band
I couldn`t see that your love-light had come back
Again
Oh yeah, you stared at him, as if he should`ve been
James Dean
And I remember you forgot to sing

It`s a long, long time ago since those days
And i can`t forget you, no matter what the others
Say
Well, I have made it up to now, but i still wonde
Where you are
`Cause I still love you, and it hurts me deep in my heart

Chorus:

I still love you...

Bye Bye, Friend
T.Sending

I remember we were sittin`by the river
We`d drink some beer or wine
But now that you are gone, I won`t think about the
past
So bye bye , friend, you`re free at last

Chorus:

Bye bye, friend
Bye bye, friend
Bye bye, friend
You`re free again

From ashes to ashes, from dust to dust
I can hear the preacher is talkin` about my friend,
once again
But now that you`ve closed your eyes forever, boy
I just have to say that i don`t see where your
Thoughts have been

Chorus twice

You were the best showmaker in town
we laughed and laughed, `ntill we all went down
But now that you are gone, I`ll try to forget about the
past
So bye bye, friend, you`re free at last


Chorus twice
Where Is The Fire
T.Sending

I guess it was a dream
But some dreams are made to come true
I gave you all I could give
But what did you do?
You let me loose again, loose once again
Loose this fight I`m trying to win
trying to win
But before you leave
there`s something you should know
I was willin`to risk it all
But now i have to take the fall
I wish you would ask me for more
More, more and more
And don`t let it end , girl
With ten red roses at your door

Chorus:

Where is the fire, where are the flames?
Where is the fire, in this rotten dirty game?
Where is the fire, where are the flames?
Where is the heat, girl, in this cold and lonely
game?

From time to time you feel down
You know that things can be rough
But I love you
And if you`ll search your heart
you`ll find enough
You`ll find enough to start it
Start it all over again
Please, please come with me
We are going to a no mans land

Chorus

Just to look in those eyes so blue
Oh, I can`t hold it back no matter what I do
So listen to our good-time friends, and what they
have to say
Cause our love was only hours away
But I know there`s something wrong
Cause it`s cold nights, with no one to warm

Chorus twice
We Won`t Dance
Greg Trooper, Motel Music, BMI

We won`t dance
No more
We won`t shine
out on the floor
we won`t sway
the band won`t play
We won`t dance

I kid you not
We were hot
when the weekend came
We`d dance non-stop
No jitterburg
No substitute
No twist and turn
No crash and burn
Could top us two

Chorus:
We wont dance....

As i dipped you down
In your yellow dress
we`d brush the floor
In a slow caress
As minutes turned
To a rising sun
We`d leave the day to rest
Our dancing done

Chorus

If I were God
and controlled what is
I`d steal your shoes
So you couldn`t dance with his
Well I`m not all
That i could be
But you`ll never dance with him
The way you danced with me

We won`t dance, we won`t dance, We won`t dance
We won`t dance. Well I`m not all, That i could be
But you`ll never dance with him
The way you danced with me
I`ve Told You The Truth
T.Sending

A love, cold as ice
Ain`t good enough, for your lovely eyes
Maybe it`s me, who`s been a fool
But I`m sorry, it`s about time to make my move

There was a time, when our love was warm
But right now i feel it like a storm
Cause the thing I wanna do, is pick and sing
So I`m sorry, girl, here`s the ring

Chorus:

I`ve packed my records, I`ve sold my shoes
I`ve been thinking about our love
So I`ve told you the truth
Cause I guess that this is the best
I`m sorry girl, I`m headin`west
Cause I`ve packed my records, I`ve sold my
shoes
I`ve bought me a guitar, and I`ve told you the truth

Oh yes I know, that your hearts bleeds
But can`t you see girl, I feel the need
But I hope that you will forget
I loved you then, girl, I love you jet

A little understaning, a human thought
Is all I`ve ever been asking fo
But right now, I have to play
No matter what you and your folks will say

Chorus:
I`ve packed my............

Bound To Go Home
T.Sending

Yeah a cold and clear Norwegian night is born
Some few hours on our own
It tears me apart to think of you
every night I am alone
I have to find the answer
to a love thats out of control

And I don`t believe in words like "this is wrong"
And thats the reason why I wrote this simple song
Cause I will allways let my feelings be that strong
Even if i know I`ll wait the night and find it all gone

Chorus:

Cause I know that this night will be over
And I know that another day is born
And everything will seem to go back to normal
again
Now that you, you and I are bound to go home

And when the morning light starts shining
Through the window in our room
And the sun is `bout to replace the moon
With a desperate hope
That we wont be going home so soon
Cause once again
Once again I`ll be out of tune

So now I`m standing in the shadows of your line
hinking about the night we just left behind
And i hope that life will treat you really kind
If you ain`t gonna`give me one last chance before
I`ll resign

Chorus

And I would like to know why you deny our love
I`m so confused in my mind, my heart and my soul
When evertything will seem to go back to normal again
Now that you, you and I are bound to go home
Livin' On Dreams
Terje Sending

Well I guess that you will be happy
and I will be gone
street life is cold, but street lamps seem warm
maybe happy days will come again
or is it just another dream
Cause I can never make you love me
the way that you love him

chorus:

Livin' on dreams, livin' on dreams
some frozen dreams in a cold winter wind
Livin' on dreams, livin' on dreams
hope I can make you love me
the way that you love him

But unless someone starts leavin'
I hope you know I'm around somewhere
dont feel the anger, girl
feel the lovebreeze in the air
I guess I'll be around somewhere
between sunshine and rain
I guess I'll be around somewhere
between memories and pain

chorus:

Livin' on dreams, livin' on dreams
some frozen dreams in a cold winter wind
Livin' on dreams, livin' on dreams
hope I can make you love me
the way that you love him

Solo

You've got our good-time friends
and their newborn child
maybe wondering where I've been
but at the same time I'll be wonderin'
how it goes with her and him
But if whispers turn to screams
with lonely nights and endless dreams
I hope I can make you love me
the very way that she loved him

chorus:

Livin' on dreams, livin' on dreams
some frozen dreams in a cold winter wind
Livin' on dreams, livin' on dreams
hope I can make you love me
the way that you love him
I hope I can make you love me
the very way that she loved him
