Let it be

When I find myself in times of troble mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom let it be
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
speaking words of wisdom let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
speaking words of wisdom let it be

And when the brokenhearted people living in the world agree
there will be an answer let it be
For though they maybe parted there is still a chance that they will see
there will be an answer let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
there will be an answer let it be
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
speaking words of wisdom let it be

Zwischenspiel und Solo (instrumental)

And when the night is clouddy there is still a light that shines on me
shine until tomorrow let it be
I wake up to the sound of music mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
speaking words of wisdom let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
speaking words of wisdom let it be be Let it

Can't help falling in love

Wise man say, only fools rush in
but I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
darling so it goes somethings are ment to be

Shall I stay? Would it be a sin,
if I can't help falling in love with you

Rote Rosen Rote Lippen Roter Wein

Sind die weißen Segel gesetzt,
fahren wir jetzt, fahren wir jetzt.
Sind die schlanken Boote soweit,
sind sie zur Fahrt bereit.

Refrain:
Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein,
und Italiens blaues Meer im Sonnenschein.
|: Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein,
laden uns ein, laden uns ein. :|

Bridge:
Doch wenn die Sterne stehn, ist Italien doppelt schön.
Wenn die Nacht herniederfällt, vergißt man die Welt.
Doch wenn die Sonne sinkt, und das Lied der Lieder klingt,
ist schon bald die große Macht, der Liebe erwacht.

I’m a believer

I thought love was only true in fairy tales,
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me (DA DA DA),
That’s the way it seems (DA DA DA),
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face, now I’m a believer.
Not a trace of doubt in my mind,
I’m in love, oh, I’m a believer,
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.

I thought love was more or less a given thing,
It seems the more I gave the less I got.
What’s the use in trying (DA DA DA),
All you get is pain (DA DA DA),
When I needed sunshine I got rain.

Then I saw her face, now I’m a believer.
Not a traceof doubt in my mind,
I’m in love, oh, I’m a believer,
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.

Love was out to get me (DA DA DA),
That’s the way it seems (DA DA DA),
Disapointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face, now I’m a believer.
Not a trace of doubt in my mind,
I’m in love, oh, I’m a believer,
I couldn’t leave her if I tried.

Yes I saw her face, now I’m a believer.
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Said I’m a believer, YEAH,
Said I’m a believer, yeah.

Stand by Me

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we′ll see
No, I won't be afraid
Oh, I won′t be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

So darlin', darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand
Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won′t cry, I won′t cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darlin′, darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Whoa, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me

Darlin′, darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me

Whenever you′re in trouble, won't you stand by me?
Oh, stand by me
Whoa, just stand now
Oh, stand, stand by me

Ring Of Fire

Love Is A Burning Thing
And It Makes A Fiery Ring
Bound By Wild Desire
I Fell Into A Ring Of Fire

I Fell Into A Burning Ring Of Fire
I Went Down, Down, Down
And The Flames Went Higher
And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire

The Taste Of Love Is Sweet
When Hearts Like Ours Meet
I Fell For You Like A Child
Ohh, But The Fire Went Wild

|: I Fell Into A Burning Ring Of Fire
I Went Down, Down, Down
And The Flames Went Higher
And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire :|

And It Burns, Burns, Burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire (repeat until fade)

Scarborough Fair

Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor nee-ee-dlework
Then she’ll be a true love of mine

Tell her to find me an acre of land
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strands
Then she’ll be a true love of mine

Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And gather it all in a bunch of heather
Then she’ll be a true love of mine

Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

Sound of silence

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I’ve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
’neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools said I, you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisper’d in the sounds of silence.

Stumblin` in

Our love is alive, and so we begin,
foolishly laying our hearts on the table, stumblin` in.
Our love is a flame, burning within,
now and then firelight will catch us, stumblin` in.

(m) Wherever you go, whatever you do,
you know, these reckless thoughts of mine are following you.
(f) I`ve fallen for you, whatever you do,
`cause baby, you`ve shown me so many things, that I never knew.
(m+f) Whatever it takes, baby, I`ll do it for you.

Chorus

(m) You were so young, ah, and I was so free,
(f) I may have been young, but baby, that`s not what I wanted to be.
(m) Well, you were the one, (f) oh, why was it me,
(m) Baby, you showed me so many things that I`d never see.
(m+f) Whatever you need, baby, you`ve got it from me.

Chorus

Stumblin` in, stumblin` in,
foolishly laying our hearts on the tabble, stumblin`in.....
Ah, stumblin` in, stumblin` in ...

Aloha Oe

I must leave my heart and go a way
to a land across the farest sea
but my thoughts will always be by you
if I should never come do not cry!

Refrain
Aloha Oe Aloha Oe be back again some day and than I stay
your warm embrace will leave a trace until we meet again

Seven seas and hills I'm outward bound
but one thin I know my heart is found
the wind blows Tahiti girl beware
if coud be that I'm home and ward bound gain

Refrain

Heute Nacht muss ich zurück an Bord
Denn mein Schiff fährt ohne mich nicht fort
Lebewohl, der Abschied fällt mir schwer
Doch ein Seemann gehört auf das Meer

Aloa Oe, Aloa OeWer weiß wann ich dich einmal wieder seh
Aloa Oe, Aloa Oe Die Heimat der Matrosen ist die See

Are you lonesome tonigt

Are you lonesome tonight do you miss me tonight
are you sorry we driftet apart
does your memory stay to a bright summerday
when I kissed you and called you sweetheart

to the chairs in your palow seems emty and bar
do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there
is your heart full with pain shall I come back again
tell me dear are you lonesome tonight

mhhm... mhhm mhhm mhhm mhhm

to the chairs in your palow seems emty and bar
do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there
is your heart full with pain shall I come back again
tell me deart are you lonesome tonight

is your heart full with pain shall I come back again
tell me dear are you lonesome tonight

Father and Son

It’s not time to make a change, just relax and take it easy
You’re still young, that’s your fault, there’s so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down, if you want to, you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy

I was once like you are now, and I know that it’s not easy
To be calm when you’ve found something going on
But take your time, think a lot, why think of everything you’ve got
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not

How can I try to explain? ’cause when I do he turns away again
It’s always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
Now there’s a way, and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go

It’s not time to make a change, just sit down and take it slowly
You’re still young, that’s your fault, there’s so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down, if you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy

All the times that I’ve cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it
If they were right, I’d agree, but it’s them they know, not me
Now there’s a way, and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go

Ich liebe das Leben

Dein Koffer wartet schon im Flur
du läßt mich allein.
Wir sehn uns an und fühlen nur
es muß wohl so sein.
Noch stehst du zögernd in der Tür
und fragst was wird aus dir?

Nein, sorg’ dich nicht um mich
du weißt ich liebe das Leben
und weine ich manchmal noch um dich
das geht vorüber sicherlich.
Was kann mir schon geschehn?
Glaub’ mir ich liebe das Leben.
Das Karussell wird sich weiterdrehn
auch wenn wir auseinandergehn.

Mag sein, daß man sich selber oft
viel zu wichtig nimmt.
Verzweifelt auf ein Feuer hofft
wo es nur noch glimmt.
Wenn so was auch sehr weh tun kann
man stirbt nicht gleich daran.

Vielleicht gefällt’s mir wieder frei zu sein
vielleicht verlieb’ ich mich auf’s neu
man wird ja sehn die Welt ist schön
wie’s kommt ist einerlei. La la la la la la
Du weißt ich liebe das Leben.
La la la la, la la la la la
La la la la, la la la la la.
Ich frag’ dich:

Was kann mir schon geschehn?
Glaub’ mir ich liebe das Leben.
Das Karussell wird sich weiterdrehn
auch wenn wir auseinandergehn.
auch wenn wir auseinandergehn.
Du weißt ich liebe das Leben.

Wind of change

I follow the Moskva. Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night. Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world is closing in. Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future’s in the air. I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street. Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva. Down to Gorky Park.
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

|: Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me :|

Wellerman

There once was a ship that put to sea
And the name of the ship was the Billy o’ Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
Blow, me bully boys, blow (huh!)

Refrain
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done,
We’ll take our leave and go

She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He’d take that whale in tow (huh!)

Refrain

Before the boat had hit the water
The whale’s tail came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down below (huh!)

Refrain

No line was cut, no whale was freed;
The Captain’s mind was not of greed
But he belonged to the whaleman’s creed;
She took the ship in tow (huh!)

Refrain

For forty days, or even more
The line went slack, then tight once more
All boats were lost (there were only four)
But still that whale did go

Refrain

As far as I’ve heard, the fight’s still on;
The line’s not cut and the whale’s not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To encourage the Captain, crew, and all

2 x Refrain

Westerland

Jeden Tag sitz ich am Wannsee, und ich hör den Wellen zu.
Ich lieg hier auf meinem Handtuch, doch ich finde keine Ruh.

Diese eine Liebe wird nie zu Ende gehn, wann werd ich sie wiedersehen?

Manchmal schließe ich die Augen, stell mir vor ich sitz am Meer.
Dann denk ich an diese Insel, und mein Herz, das wird so schwer.

Diese eine Liebe wird nie zu Ende gehn, wann werd ich sie wiedersehen?
Oh, ich hab solche Sehnsucht, ich verliere den Verstand.
Ich will wieder an die Nordsee,
ich will zurück nach Westerland.

Wie oft stand ich schon am Ufer - wie oft sprang ich in die Spree?
Wie oft mussten sie mich retten, damit ich nicht untergeh?

Diese eine Liebe wird nie zu Ende gehn, wann werd ich sie wiedersehen?
Oh, ich hab solche Sehnsucht, ich verliere den Verstand.
Ich will wieder an die Nordsee,
ich will zurück nach Westerland.

Es ist zwar etwas teurer, dafür ist man unter sich;
und ich weiß, jeder zweite hier ist genauso blöd wie ich.

Oh, ich hab solche Sehnsucht, ich verliere den Verstand.
Ich will wieder an die Nordsee,
ich will zurück nach Westerland.

Oh, ich hab solche Sehnsucht, ich verliere den verstand!
Ich will wieder an die Nordsee,
ich will zurück - ich will zurück - ich will zurück-
ich will zurück nach Westerland!!!!

Whiskey in the jar

As I was going over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I met with captain Frarell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and then I drew my rapier
I said: "Stand and deliver for you're my bold deceiver!"

Musharing duma doo doma da, whack fol me daddy o,
whack fol me Paddio, there's whiskey in the jar Hey!

I counted out the monney it made a pretty penny
I stuck it to my pocket and I took it home to Jenny
She swore and she promissed that she never would deceive me
but the devils in them women and she never can go easy

Musharing duma doo doma da, whack fol me daddy o,
whack fol me Paddio, there's whiskey in the jar Hey!

'twas early in the morning when I awoke to travel
but guards where all around me and so likewise captain Farrell
I first produced me pistol me rapier she had stolen
but I coudn't fire water so a prisnor I was taken

Musharing duma doo doma da, whack fol me daddy o,
whack fol me Paddio, there's whiskey in the jar

Musharing duma doo doma da, whack fol me daddy o,
whack fol me Paddio, there's whiskey in the jar Hey!

Tage wie diese

Ich wart seit Wochen auf diesen Tag
Und tanz vor Freude über den Asphalt
Als wär’s ein Rythmus, als gäb’s ein Lied,
Dass mich immer weiter durch die Straßen zieht
Komm dir entgegen, dich abzuholen, wie ausgemacht
Zu der selben Uhrzeit, am selben Treffpunkt, wie letztes Mal

Durch das Gedränge der Menschenmenge
Bahnen wir uns den altbekannten Weg
Entlang der Gassen zu den Rheinterrassen
Über die Brücken bis hin zu der Musik
Wo alles laut ist, wo alle drauf sind, um durchzudreh’n
Wo die Anderen warten, um mit uns zu starten und abzugeh’n

An Tagen wie diesen wünscht man sich Unendlichkeit
An Tagen wie diesen haben wir noch ewig Zeit
Wünsch ich mir Unendlichkeit

Das hier ist ewig, ewig für heute
Wir steh’n nicht still für eine ganze Nacht
Komm ich trag dich durch die Leute
Hab keine Angst, ich gebe auf dich Acht
Wir lassen uns treiben, tauchen unter, schwimmen mit dem Strom
Dreh’n unsere Kreise, kommen nicht mehr runter, sind schwerelos

An Tagen wie diesen wünscht man sich Unendlichkeit
An Tagen wie diesen haben wir noch ewig Zeit
In dieser Nacht der Nächte, die uns so viel verspricht
Erleben wir das Beste, kein Ende ist in Sicht
Kein Ende in Sicht...
Kein Ende in Sicht...
Kein Ende in Sicht...

Take Me Home, Country Roads

Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains growin' like a breeze.

Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong:
West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, Country Roads.

All my mem'ries, gather 'round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water.
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.

Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong:
West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, Country Roads.

I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me,
the radio reminds me of my home far away,
and drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong:
West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, Country Roads,
take me home, Country Roads, take me home, Country Roads.
