River Of Love
August 2023
unreleased

sometimes we´re up
and then we´re down
nothing don´t hurt
anymore
are you pleased now?
up to rule the world?
with god´s glory boon
on your side
I remember your smile
a million years ago
we both riding horses
over the hill
ready to fly
too young to get taught by hate
now all wheels are roaring
and our world is burning
tell me
will you sleep tonight?
with all them tangle around
tell me
what would you dream tonight?
all grace gone
with the blood
in the river of love
sometimes we´re up
and then we´re down
nothing don´t touch us
at all
we shoot at stars
we wreck what´s left in some hole
where children laugh
out of broken eyes
let me tell you
I won´t sleep tonight
with all them shame all around
let me tell you
no way to dream tonight
all pride gone
with the tears
in the river of love
I think we both are getting
chased all around
puppets in the rich man´s world
we´re all getting
torn to get burnt
trash on some rich man´s receipt
sometimes we´re up
and then we´re down
it hurts
and it won´t ever go
maybe it´s time
for us to quit this mess
let´s all go home
let´s leave them chiefs alone
and I tell you
we´re gonna sleep tonight
let´s care for the splits of our soul
I tell you
we´re gonna dream tonight
horses on silent fields
´round the river of love

Ready For Good Times
February 2023
unreleased

had a ticket on queen fortune
it ain´t working anymore
there´s bad vibrations
between me and the universe
my old Mercedes only runs backwards
no one answers my mail
all sleep is gone
my black shoes too
gotta sort things out by myself
I´m ready for good times
I´m clearly more than
half way through
had enough of them bad times
and only
unpleasant news
I´m ready for good times
I´m definitely 
almost there
if you wanna have good times
you´ve gotta spend some time with me
all people now speak Chinese
in cute suits on tv
while wolves in the streets outside
sing love songs for free
and then Lassie yesterday told me
it´s the bones you pay, that´s all
she says "you better get up
and start to look at things
from both sides now"
I´m ready for good times
I´m clearly more than
half way through
had enough of them bad times
and only
unpleasant news
I´m ready for good times
I´m definitely 
almost there
if you wanna have good times
you´ve gotta spend some time with me
so I´m riding into the sunset
on the other side of the road
the rearview mirror is
the best friend I got
he sells guns and illusions
whatever gets you through the night
tomorrow we´ll have another
brand new day to try to
do it right
I´m ready for good times
I´m clearly more than
half way through
had enough of them bad times
and only
unpleasant news
I´m ready for good times
I´m definitely 
almost there
if you wanna have good times
you´ve gotta spend some time with me

BIRDS IN JUNE
July 2022
unreleased

something rumbles through my sleep
makes me feel dizzy as it seems
makes me remember
some strange kinda talk
your eyes look into mine
I smile all the time
our fingers
crossed on our hearts
we´re gonna keep close like this for days
take it easy but always
be honest with ourselves
by all means
I think of you
as birds in June
wake up in
full harmony
then we´re walking through the rain
there ain´t no fear, no shame
groupies on lovers´
road
I stand there straight
the wind blows through your hair
as an eagle with a zing
floats by
and then hidden dates
secret midnight calls
it´s the best years
of our lives
I think of you
as birds in June
make plans for a
perfect day
yes I got your mail yesterday
no, I don´t know what happened on the way
we´ve been busy I guess
to keep going on
sort of happy maybe
having dreamed a dream
too smooth to deserve a chance
to break through
so you´re in Italy or in France
I hope still out at times for a dance
it´s all sorted
just a memory
I think of you
as birds in June
whisper all
wise thoughts away

STILL WONDERLAND
December 2021
unreleased

some take a bath
in champagne
some show their rocket
all across the universe
some don´t speak
at all behind those
shadow walls
called home
chasing mysteries of
once upon a time
some read Mark Twain
in the park
you´re up there
starring at the telephone
what´s gonna kill you first?
prudence or that
innocent waltz
that skips
straight into dead end town
where thieves hang on
oak trees
and the lady waits on
torn knees
take my hand
let´s go down
to the river it´s
wonderland
this is wonderland
it´s hard
not in time again
sleep another
plight away it´s
wonderland
this is wonderland
some drink but don´t
get wise
some kill their mobile
as the barman serves
the last goodbye
we both have travelled
so far between the
pitch and the stars
real close
we should be
millionaires
the horizon now ain´t
clear at all
and the wind don´t offer
dreams no more so
take my hand
let´s get out
to the sea it´s
wonderland
this is wonderland
it´s great
unbribable at times
pragmatical it´s
wonderland
this is wonderland
won´t you
take my hand
let´s get out
on the streets it´s
wonderland
this is wonderland
so many things
we can do just
count on me too
in wonderland
still wonderland

ALL IN
September 2021

you say yes
I say no
when you say hi
I go
you bug me
there ain´t nothing in between
you´re just the worst
lady I´ve ever seen
you say nice
I say crap
your world´s fine
mine goes mad
no fuss like this
from the desert to the sea
if you want peace
not for me
you smile
I´m cool
when your moon´s brave
mine´s a fool
there´s thunder
and lightning in my air
every time your vibe´s
getting near
you got time
I got none
you´re so moved
I just long
to get somewhere
where a brass band explodes
just some dump
close to the coast
you say
one and one is three
and I think
I agree
all calm on
the milky way tonight
as angels
in sweet voices sigh
days pass by
time stands still
if you wanna fly
rip the bill
there´s no wise thought
when you look at me that way
yeah, all in
is alright for me

EASY ON THE HEART
July 2019
unreleased

did you get the breaking news today?
somebody got lost out on the sea
beyond the horizon
they said there was nothing much to do
they´d found a letter in his shoe
blurred by the tides there
and his boat had been a mess
filled with sludge and rotten grass
all them planks were torn
no more colours anymore
I know this could be shadowland
so baby please let me take your hand
to make you feel
easy on the heart
I guess this place ain´tbig enough
for all the changes I could bring up
I watch us through this candle light
wearily as the years pass by
I don´t need no neon stripes
to clearly know what´s wrong and right
there´s still so much I could do
I wonder what´s happening behind
your lovely closed eyes
as an old moon keeps shining
baby why are so sad?
I´m gonna stay here by your bed
until the sun is rising
you and I we´re still so near
let me wipe away your tears
I´m gonna be a better man
till happy days are back again
I know this tastes like shadowland
so baby please let me hold your hand
to make you feel
easy on the heart
I´ll pick the brightest star for you
I´ll do my best to take care of you
to make you feel
easy on the heart

BLUE NOTE PIER
July 2019
unreleased

this is the time to
get started
the last train
to a decent life
somewhere out there
with the right folks
you´ll get kicked
on a constant flow
these are days of
wine and roses
no doubt which
side you´re on but
you used to be
so unagitated
now you´re judging
everyone
well I spend my days
watching the river
as priests and dealers
pass by
down by the shore
at the blue note pier
rather rattled
but alright
you say I should get
clean shoes and
a clean groove and
a clean brain too
in your mirror
I´m a hopeless story
you´re so thrilled and I´m
so slow
I spend my days
watching the river
as rebels and thieves
pass by
down by the shore
at the blue note pier
not untainted
but alright
I know you´re only
so worried
cold rage behind your
troubled eyes and
I know you watch your
peacemaker
everytime we
say good by and
you get polite and
you get lound and
you all meet
on conversion-row so
maybe you´re right babe
but I´m fine babe
talk is cheap in
scarlet-town
this affair it ain´t
moving so well
you´re so smart but
I´m out
I spend my days
watching the river
as lovers and lawers
pass by
down by the shore
at the blue note pier
a bit spurious
but alright
one day I´l pay my bill
down by the river
when dreamers and thugs
pass by
down by the shore
at the blue note pier
I´m gonna make up
my mind

POOR MAN´S COPYRIGHT

March 2014
Some Time Now, 2018

not much fun
under the stars tonight
smart drinks
highfaluting talk
you´ve had enough
of crooked forecasts
I´ve had my share
of heartbreak-row
I might have been born
a political animal
swapping tunes
horses and depts
you wear it well
too straight to analyse
we´re still in time
it´s up to you
but if you want to
this is all for you
sort of bits and pieces
it´s just all for you
I know we both have seen
better days
it´s all for you
not that hard to handle
it´s just all I´ve got
rather used but working
I know it´s hard to stand to have
no direction home
but I´m so tired of all that
self-reflection
I want some easy action
lots of space
under the stars tonight
let´s scare off
all jugglers and ghosts
you´ve had your share
of soft excuses
but now you´re here
it´s up to you
and if you want to
this is all for you
sort of bits and pieces
it´s just all for you
I know we both have seen
better days
it´s all for you
not that hard to handle
it´s just all I´ve got
rather used but working

MUCH WATER, NO TIME
January 2017
Some Time Now, 2018

you think you´ve made it
´cause you´ve put me on                                                                 
flat-out lying might make you
feel real good                        
but it´s only money you drag
through your dead life
tin on wheels
on a lost highway
there´s that river flowing
ain´t yours or mine
much water baby
no time 
yes I get your smile
when you pass by
your nose up                                                 
in a perfect sky
your  hips so stiff
you can hardly move
in your super-smart                          
black velvet shoes
there´s that river flowing
ain´t yours or mine
much water baby
no time 
one day
we will meet again
and you´re gonna ask me
why you feel so bad
why money don´t seem
to help at all
why you´re always gaping
at the same old door
there´s that river flowing
ain´t yours or mine
much water baby
no time 
your feet now swim
in your smart shoes
you´ve drowned your car
while trying to sell the moon
your nose keeps running                              
night and day
and your bank-man says
this must be the end
there´s that river flowing
ain´t yours or mine
much water baby
no time

Chuck smiles
checks the field
confidently slow
"hey girls
cool down"
after loosing every
highland pony show
he ain´t got no time for
bad vibrations
as he shuffles
round the byre 
better stick to sweet
imagination
you got me walking on water
you got me flying to the stars
and everything´s so good today
no obstacle
in my way
everything´s so good today
you got me dancing all night
under a full moon
and all them fools
they nose out
chances
while they´re dreaming
of a perfect weekend
someday somewhere
alright
Chuck smiles
hits the road
along fences
ditches
and holes
a scrapped stud
on high heels
taking the stage at the
Eldorado
hard times for wise
negociations
he just plays it
loud
well I ain´t looking for no
right situation
I want some of the same stuff
and I want that stuff right now 
and everything´s so good today
no obstacle
in my way
yes everything´s just right today
you got me walking on water
you got me flying
cause everythng´s
so good today
no demon
in my way
yes everything´s just right today
you got me dancing all nioght

INDEPENDENCE, LOW BUDGET AND ME
January 2017
Some Time Now, 2018

she´s trouble
she grunts from the pillion
"get up
follow that car"
another loser
getting back his queen
in a bath of hope
close to midnight
streets are clean
contractions done
oh it´s a girl
on the 9th of November
1989
two stops from Berlin
got some paintings naked
but I ain´t got no time
to try to
fool them with blood
and Lizzy she´s gone
but she´s left her purple hat
but I ain´t wise enough
to simply sleep
Kid and Rosie
are waiting on me
at The World´s End
they´ll gamble till noon
they play the best music
the right thing
anytime
I´m a happy man
when the ball´s rolling
I´m just sick of all talk
at times
and then I`m a lomesome rat
with only used tunes
and nobody there
to blame
I got Kid´s tequilla
I´m back in my cab
into the sunrise
we disappear
independence
low budget
and me
independence
low budget
and me

SOMETHING`S REALLY WRONG WITH MY BABY
March 2016
Some Time Now, 2018

strange times
no matter what I do
my baby burns
she´s full- time upset
"have you seen them
chasing our kids
have you heard
they won´t pay no bills
I swear I´llget me
some gun"
she´s so diligent 
with only good intentions
she says we´re down
on bloody losing street
driven to bust
by all them poor souls
"have you seen them
scouting our cars
they don´t know
a thing about work
and have you heard
they´re up to conquer Berlin
drugs for free
on fake Arabians"
something´s really wrong
with my baby
her smile ain´t that frank
anymore
something´s really wrong
with may baby
she used to speak
so seriously
now she whispers so
mysteriously
strange days
no matter where I go
my baby´s there
dressed up in
worn out suits
well I don´t feel
that good to see you
so moved by your
big romantic stuff
maybe we´ld be
better off if we´ld
sort things out
in a more sober way
something´s really wrong
with my baby
her smile ain´t that cool
anymore
something´s really wrong
with may baby
she used to speak 
so carefully
now she shouts at me
all the time
seems she only worries
for the next hot story  
flat enough to sell
to some folks that hurry
to get the right story to worry
some crowd that
needs the stuff 
to smell their blood
throbbing
something´s really wrong
with my baby
her smile now ain´t 
no gift at all
something´s really wrong
with may baby
she used to be 
such a clever girl
so keen on news about
this great ol´world
but memories now
don´t do at all

A BRIGHTER DAY
February 2015
Some Time Now, 2018

last night the moon fell
down into the sea
without leaving any
explanation at all
they missed to show it
live on TV
so they sent a quick
poll from the shore
and I laid back
I watched the darkness rule
after I´d kicked my TV
out through the door
putting on sanctions or
selling guns
sorry, chiefs
I´m out
I am moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day
moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day
I guess I´ld sleep
for a thousand years
if I could chalk up time
somewhere
I´ld dream of doing
nothing at all
I wouldn´t wanna figure out
what´s going on
but sleep
to me is a runaway-train
that´s always passing
wherever I stay
I like the Whisky
and the Whisky likes me
together we
slip away
and we´re moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day
moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day 
you say they´ve had it
in the morning-news
the moon finally
has shown up again
somehow he´d made it
to the other side
seems even big boys sometimes
do need a plan
and I guess they´re right
this world should be a better place
if everything was right there
where it belongs
come on and get your dancing-shoes
let´s listen to our favourite songs               
let´s stray
all night long
and we´re moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day
moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day
moving
moving on
to a brighter day
moving
moving
moving on
to a brighter day

PERSONAL BACK-UP
February 2015
Some Time Now, 2018

valentine´s 
all over
a million words
all done
no dreams
left in your bed
where only shadows
sleep
hard tears have flown
down the river 
I´ve watched them
disappear
you stare
through walls
I get up at five
wasted and
so sick
as your personal back-up
right or wrong
scrubbing blood off all carpets
that you step on
´cause you´re my lady
and I´m your man
this will go
on and on and on and on
and on
right through eternity
sometimes I sit at the shore
and wonder
why ask for whatever
to blame
we´re never
getting really close
too bricked to fake
no use at all to stay
in this losing game
as your personal back-up
year after year
trying to clean bad corners
that you don´t wanna see
´cause you´re my lady
and I´m your man
this will go
on and on and on and on
and on
your personal back-up
together through life
I got hurt too
but I´ll survive
we´ve lost our good times
and now don´t care at all
this won´t go
on and on and on and on
and on
this won´t go
on and on and on and on
and on
this won´t go
on and on and on and on
and on
not for one day

LET IT RAIN
February 2014
Some Time Now, 2018

she goes down to the water
as the tide leaves
lights a cigarette
towards the cold wind
some people walk by
on that endless beach
she´d been waiting a long time
he won´t come
she enters that bar
on top of the dunes
watches the staff
cleaning fish
orders a pint
gets a cup of tea
she´d been thinking a lot
never caught one word
a full moon´s rising
above the shore
stars glimmer
through torn clouds
laughter all around
time to get up
she´d been dreaming some dreams
in a strange world
out on the street
she passes the park
wet benches
rustling bins
a raven crows
as a trombone sounds
she´d been far away
now she´s back
and she smells the mist
down from the harbour
the smoke from the oven
in the kitchen that night
they danced around the chairs
and fell
down on the floor
under a pale blue sky
with plain plans
such a good feeling
before everything suddenly
slipped away
out of her hands
she felt like an actor
who´s gonna pay
for that damage done
and who ever´s gonna
be to blame
let it flow
out of this hut
over the sea
let´s work straight up
to the mornimg dawn
let it sleep let it loose
let it all fall down
and let it rain
let it rain
let it rain
let it rain 
let it rain rain rain
down on me rain rain
down on me rain rain
down on me rain rain
she watches the water
as the tide comes in

BROKEN DREAMS
December 2016  
Some Time Now, 2018                                                                        

she took my brolly
rushed through the door
down on the
boulevard of broken dreams
she ain´t got no fun
but she wants it now
long time no thrill
now you better watch out
there goes my baby
there she goes now
in a brand new
revolution-coat
no more hard stuff
all day
now things will never
be the same again
never again
from Plymouth Rock
to Blonde on Blonde
from theBerlinWall
to her last year´s book
baby´s on fire
and her tanks are full
long time no thrill
now you better watch out
there goes my baby
there she goes now
under a brand new
revolution-cap
no more big thoughts
all day
now things will never
be the same again
never again
she says
“you gotta bump them strangers out
rage is the sign of the times
it´s all about honesty”
long time no thrill
now you better watch out
there goes my baby
there she goes now
under a rotten
blood-soaked flag
a roaring spectre
all day
don´t want my brolly
back again
never again

no regrets
that´s what they want to say
at the end of the road
but most of the time
wherever I go
I see no smiling face at all
I´ve been driving all night
I´ve been talking to myself
now I`m straight on track
with a butterfly mind                                                 
come on babe
won´t you give me chance
`cause I
I havn´t come to seize you                                       
all I want is to please you
some time now
I ain´t here to disturb you
I´ll do my best to deserve you
it´s some time now
paradise
some think they got it booked
as a better place than this
but as far as I know
no one´s ever been there
why bet on trouble when you´re looking for bliss                 
you´re always so tough
you know when to quit                                  
gonna blank all bad days                                                     
and the strange-weather-blues                                            
come on babe
won´t you give me another try
`cause I
I havn´t come to cheat you                                       
all I want is to please you
some time now
I ain´t here to hurt you
I´ll do my best to deserve you
it´s some time now
look at the clouds up in the sky
days are passing much too fast
in such an eternal flow
yes, I
I havn´t come to annoy you
I really want to enjoy you
some time now
we could leave all tiffs behind us
why not just keep it simple
it´s some time now
some time now

ALL OVER AGAIN                                                                                          
April 2015
Some Time Now, 2018

maybe I´ll write you a letter
maybe I´ll take the next plane
and then we look at each other
as out two of passing trains
then I might sing you a love song
on a bike in the rain                                       
and when we think it´s all over
we start all over again
there´s something in the air when we meet
that rumbles when we´re apart
I know it´s not that easy ´cause it feels so easy
and I know I shouldn´t take it so hard
sometimes I´m down on the bottom
and then I´m up on the moon
and then I know exactly
what I´m gonna do
and then I sit beside you
smiling all the time                                        
and when we think it´s all over
we start all over again
maybe I´ll write you a letter
but then I might need some time
and as days pass so quickly
I might just say that I´m fine
this really makes me wonder
sometimes I´ld like to stay                            
but when we think it´s all over
we start all over again
when we think it´s all over
we start all over again

YOU´RE GONNA GET UP AGAIN
March 2017
unreleased

no train´s gonna pass this town no more
the last dogs have left in time
they´re all guilty here where everything´s broken
and the sun never shines
they serve drinks further down the road
they call them liberty and fate
makes me think of that night under a full moon
when our future was waiting out there in the stars
we´ll be riding wild horses
we´re gonna sail around the world
we´re gonna build ourselves a good live
with our own naked hands
we´ll stand straight with a free mind
open to care
and when we fall we´re gonna get uo again
with our true love always near
out on the street a hard wind´s blowing
and slowly step by step
the sun´s rising seems also bad forecasts
sometimes might been written on sand
we´ll be riding wild horses
we´re gonna sail around the world
we´re gonna build ourselves a good live
with our own naked hands
we´ll stand straight with a free mind
open to care
and when we fall we´re gonna get uo again
with our true love always near
you´re gonna get up again
you´re gonna get up again
you´re gonna get up again


PARADISE-ROAD

August 2014
unreleased

they shot the weatherman down
last night in a TV-show
he´d got lost in polls
big-time online
now there´s no bad news anymore
left with only mysteries
we´re waltzing down
paradise-road
for times like these
were built to last
slick glances time after time
just like watching the river flow
there´s that woman on the hill
I´m playing with the jack of hearts
all settled on both sides of the street
long since familiar
blithe talk
now things have changed
and times like these
were built to last
this is the wrong scene
in the wrong season
broken clouds 
above the shore
better stop before it´s
getting too easy
well I´ve never seen you
like this before
no regrets no guilt
no pain anymore
all fences clean
in paradise-road
we´ld swim out in the open sea and
I´ld drink all the time
sentimental
but true
for times like these
were built to last
yes times like these
were built to last
paradise-road
was built to last
