johnny hates jazz - shattered dreams
So much for your promises,
They died the day you let me go,
Caught up in a web of lies,
But it was just too late to know,
I thought it was you,
Who would stand by my side?
Chorus
And now you've given me, given me,
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams,
Feel like I could run away, run away,
From this empty heart,
You said you'd die for me...
Woke up to reality,
And found the future not so bright,
I dreamt the impossible,
That maybe things could work out right,
I thought it was you,
Who would do me no wrong...
Repeat Chorus twice
From this empty heart...
I thought it was you,
Who said you'd die for love...
Repeat Chorus twice
Oh, no, no, no,
You said you'd die for me.
johnny hates jazz - autumn years
Picking up the pieces of my life
I wonder why the hell I ever came here
A man without a future left to face
And nothing but a memory to embrace
Holding on to threads of sanity
Imagining the roads I could have taken
It fills me with a deepening sense of shame
And outside I can hear the pouring rain
There is a place
Where in my mind I escape
And there I understand the way I feel
And deep in this world of make-believe
I will spend my autumn years with you
Sitting in this grey and sunless world
I try to come to terms with guilty feelings
A man about to pay the final price
And nothing but his breath to sacrifice
There'll be a time
When I'll be gone from your mind
A fading ghost that soon will disappear
And deep in my would of endless pain
I must face my autumn years
I'm picking up the pieces, I'm picking up the pieces
I'm picking up the pieces, I'm picking up the pieces
Picking up the pieces of my life
johnny hates jazz - listen
Cold by day, cold by night
I wonder where the summer's gone
Make no mistake, no mistake
I've got to find you
Well you can tell all your friends
That you found a way
Go tell them all that you've come to stay
Refrão
Just to listen, just to listen
Just to listen to your heart
(2x)
Take your chances, take your time
Let's take a slow dance out of here
Now i know, now i'm sure
I'm flying tonight
Well you can tell all your friends
That you found a way
Go tell them all that you're here to stay
Refrão
Oh no
Hot by day, warm by night
I wonder where the winter's gone
There's no mistake, no mistake
We feel the same way
Well you can tell all your friends
That you found a way
Go tell them all that i'm here to stay
Refrão
johnny hates jazz - turn back the clock
Another day is ended
And i still can't sleep
Remembering my yesterdays
I begin to weep
If i could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldn't change a single day
Refrão
I wish that i could turn back the clock
Bring the wheels of time to a stop
Back to the days when life was so much better
Lying here in silence
Picture in my hand
Of a boy i still resemble
But i no longer understand
And as the tears run freely
How i realize
They were the best years of my life
Refrão
You might say it's just
A case of giving up, no
But without these memories where is the love
So where is the love
If i could have it over
Live my life again
I wouldn't change a single day
Refrão
Why can't i turn back the clock
Bring the wheels of time to a stop
Back to the days
Oh no no
I remember when
Life was so good
I'd go back if i could
Oh oh i wouldn't change a single day
Don't let the memories slip away
I wouldn't change a single day
Don't let the memories slip away
johnny hates jazz - close to the edge
All my emotion have intertwined
Or could it be that I've lost my mind?
There is a feeling of hopelessness
Now that I've cracked up my life's a mess
The pressure's building up
This world has got too much
Can't take society
You are my enemy
I'm close to the edge
And I don't want to fall
I'm losing my head
My body and soul
I'm close to the edge
And I don't want to fall
I'm losing my head
My body and soul
I can't stop shaking, I'm so afraid
Caught in a gap between night and day
Living in silence behind closed doors
I'm not the man that I was before
This grip on sanity
Is slipping out of me
The fear of facing life
There is no end in sight
If I am still that strong
Enough to just hold on
I've got to stand and fight
In this eternal night
johnny hates jazz - closer
All night I've been awake
You on my mind
I made a big mistake
To leave you behind
You know it's hard to sleep
on a bed of nails
I know that I was wrong
You knew it all along
I was a fool nothing better to do
than fail again and blame it on you
Sometimes I don't know how I'll ever get you back
There's so much I need to say
But you're so far away
(chorus)
Ooh Just wanna get closer
Ooh Closer to you
Ooh Just wanna get closer, closer
That's all I wanted to do
So when I wake up
I'll count every move
I need to make
To get back to you
Who knows if time can heal
All that's gone before
But in your eyes once more
Lights on a distant shore
(chorus)
They say there's a northern light
Shining out there
They say there's a happy life
Who can tell me where
They say that love can fly
Like smoke in the air
I don't care what they say
When you're so far away
Ooh Just wanna get closer
Ooh Closer to you
Ooh Just wanna get closer, closer
That's all I wanted to do
Just to be close to you
johnny hates jazz - crown of thorns
You were yesterday's hero
An ordinary man of flesh and blood
Took the World on your shoulders
A hopeless crusade, and act of love
But it's a world obsessed with religion
And now you wear the face of a god
Like the words you said, you're as good as dead
Just a work of art on the wall
And that's why nobody wears a crown of thorns
Nobody cares
Nobody wears a crown of thorns anymore
Holy men talk of hunger
While standing beneath a cross of gold
And there are preachers on the TV
In their thousand dollar suits, who sell your soul
To think you died for what you believed in
Only to be exploited and used
Now you're supermen from the promised land
Just a vision of Hollywood
...anymore
You showed me that there's hope for humanity
But once more you're being betrayed
So many countries torn by their idols
Too many prophets screaming for blood
And they only hear what they want to hear
When it comes to God up above
johnny hates jazz - different seasons
There is a face deep in your mind
One that your heart won't leave behind
Memories are cold-empty of laughs
And all that remains are photographs
Refrão
When she's gone there are no reasons
Nature's cruel - it's just different seasons
Going on and on
There is a voice deep in your soul
Telling your not to lose control
And day after day you hold back the tears
'cos pain is the greatest of your fears
Refrão (2x)
There are no reasons
Say it's only different seasons
johnny hates jazz - don t let it end this way
The minutes are slipping away
As we say our last goodbye
Bid the world a fond farewell
We'll share in a final embrace
When the lights begin to fade
It's a tale they had to tell
I'm wiping the tears from your face
Though i can't control myself
God have mercy on us all
The chapter has ended a story
That only just begun
First the rise and then the fall
Refrão
But don't let it end this way
Before you can go
There's something that i must say
Don't let it end this way
It's too late to cry
When winter has come to stay
I once had a book in my hand
That i didn't understand
Now i witness every page
So won't you come closer my love
Now our time has nearly come
Take a bow and leave the stage
Refrão
Now it's time to close your eyes
Refrão
johnny hates jazz - don t say it s love
We've had it good for years now
Don't let that change
We've never needed answers
To find the way
Now all of a sudden like waves on a beach
Love has come crashing down
The truth has been lost and found
Refrão
Don't say it's love, baby
'cos you are to me
What you want to be
Don't say it's love, no baby
If our friendship is to survive
Don't say it's love
We've shared so many secrets
Now kiss and tell
You make one move to love me
And it's farewell
'cos somewhere there's someone who's waiting for you
To love you more than i could
Your heart was misunderstood
Refrão
Don't be a fool
You'll be alone in your confusion
If loving me is an illusion
Then let it go
Oh no no no no
Now i never counted
On ending this way
I always trusted fate
But if we are not too late
Refrão
...all you do is say it's love
johnny hates jazz - drowning my sorrows
I read the letter through a haze of alcohol
A close encounter with the weak and pitiful
Although my conscience said "She's absolutely
right"
The thought was buried in the blindness of the night
I'm free at last
I'm drinking to the past
Those best-forgotten memories are fading fast
And now I'm drowning my sorrows
Here's to you
Dreams of love are finally through
And when I'm frowning my sorrows
Life is sweet
The bitter world is an echo in my heartbeat
The chair is empty where I slaved my years away
Please save your tears for someone else's rainy day
Where once your picture stood, a bottle's in it's
place
Another chapter in my epic fall form grace
I can't believe
That you are so naive
To think that losing you would give me cause to grieve
I thought you really loved me
But what am I gonna do know you are gone
The nights are long
And when the stars are gone
I stagger to my sense and I carry on
johnny hates jazz - fool s good
The things that I believe today
Won't catch the wind
And blow away
Tomorrow
I'll still be here
When the rest are gone
I won't disappear
Because all along
I follow my heart
And they can offer anything
To change my mind
Oh but I can see
It never shines
It's fools gold
And it's no good to me
'Cos I know
What I need
Is something to believe
I don't know much but I can see
You've got to stay in touch
With all your dreams
And follow your heart
Some people
Oh, they seem so sure
That what's good for one
Is good for all
They're hollow inside
They can offer anything
To change my mind
Oh but I can see
It never shines
It's fools gold
It isn't what it seems
'Cos I know
What I need
Is something to believe
Fools gold
It's no good to me
Some people they get
Bought and sold
For fools gold
Fools gold
johnny hates jazz - foolish heart
I held your hand so fair
And like the morning sun
We cause an ancient rhyme
Oh I will laugh, I will cry for you
Like the wind that blows
The stars that shine
The cool of night
My ivory Moon
The wind that calls
The stars will shine
And I will come
And you will say
This is enough
Of me and my foolish heart
My foolish heart
Oh you will take my hand
And we will wander far away
Oh you will take my hand
And I will follow
Down where the walls come crashing
Down where the proudest fall
Down where those fools come rushing in
To where they fell before
Down where the age has passed me
I will be sure
You will be there and I will belong
To me and my foolish heart
Me and my foolish heart
I will run to you
Hey Johnny
Where you gonna go
With that gun in your hand...
johnny hates jazz - heart of gold
She's a girl who likes her living
Never tired of always giving
Faceless men pay for the pleasure
And the nights go on and on
Refrão
Walking the streets
For a handful of money
Love don't come cheap
With a heart of gold
She's indiscreet
But to me, girl, it's funny
That they pay for the love
Of a girl with a pure heart of gold
She ain't hungry for a lover
When it's over, there's another
Loneliness won't be a problem
When the nights go on and on
Refrão
But something about her makes me cry
The light is fading from her eyes
Memories of girlish purity
Where love surrenders
...and the nights go on and on
Refrão
johnny hates jazz - heart of hearts
Why do you hide in the shadows?
Are you afraid of the sun?
You've got a lifetime before you
And many wars to be won
You've got to look to the future
And never dwell in the past
And though you'll never forget me
Some things are not meant to last
So why don't you open the door?
It's a beautiful day
Nothing will stand in your way
Just take look in your heart of hearts
It's true
For everything there's reason
Sometimes it's hard to define
But maybe you can take comfort
Knowing you're one of a kind
In the darkness
There's a light that shines on you
It's not over, I'll be waiting
In another place and time
I will still be by your side
