Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, eh yeah


What a dream, what a joke, love it   :x

I had a dream about a burning house
You were stuck inside
I couldn't get you out
I lay beside you and pulled you close
And the two of us went up in smoke

Love isn't all that it seems
I did you wrong
I'll stay here with you
Until this dream is gone

I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Tryna take what's lost and broke
And make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house

I see you at a party and you look the same
I could take you back
But people don't ever change
Wish that we could go back in time
I'd be the one you thought you'd find

Love isn't all that it seems
I did you wrong
I'll stay here with you
'Til this dream is gone

I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Tryna take what's lost and broke
And make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house

Flames are getting bigger now
In this burning house
I can hold on to you somehow
In this burning house
Oh, and I don't wanna wake up
In this burning house

And I been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Tryna take what's lost and broke
And make it right
I've been sleep walking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house

We are all here to help each other, love each other, and be brothers and sisters. We've got one chance in this life, to get out of here whether we have to do it over and over or not. And that is to learn to love everybody else and treat them just like ourselves, or forget it. Let's all try to learn a few things and pick each other up when we're down. And not push anybody down cause we're up

Haven't heard this song in years, but now that I'm coming back to it, it is so obvious.

Here's Google's translation:

Where are you right now, I'm late I'm
walking the corridors
Looking for what I don't know
Miss I love you and you know
Let me take you away, we 'll find a hideout
Sheltered from the world, sheltered from lack
Between the dew
And the shooting stars

I'm not the type of guy to sit next to you
You ice and break me, there's something in you that's
stopping me from anything

I just want to take you, to the hollow of the waves
Breaking waves that land on your sleeping body
In the waltz of the wind
And the sound of the night

We will foil the statistics, ignoring the percentages
Chances for me to have been able to undo your blouse
In the middle of a thunderstorm

I'm not the type of guy to sit next to you
You ice and break me, there's something in you that's
stopping me from anything

No I'm not the type to sit next to you
You ice and break me, there's something in you
That keeps me from anything
Whatever it is

I just wanted you to follow me to speakeasies
From New York city
Listening to old twenties jazz
In pursuit of nothing
But you wanted my butter, the money of my butter
And my dairy ass
But it pays miseries
To offer flowers, to offer glasses

I'm not the type of guy to sit next to you
You ice and break me, there's something in you that's
stopping me from anything

I'm not the kind of guy to sit next to you
You and me ice break me, there is something in you
That keeps me from anything
from anything

Oh shit!

The sun will rise again
With love comes forgiveness
Lift the burden on my back
Letting go of what we had
So that I'm dancing in an empty room

 

The colder the night, the warmer your hands hold
Held in your arms, the hole in my head grows whole

I don't want to die alone, but I don't wanna die at all
I'm not gonna keep you be the phone, dear
Hang up when you've had enough
Too much to talk
Call me when you're coming down, call me when you hang
All is well that ends well, but all is well that ends

Clocks made God from the monsters in my head
Do you wanna know my name
Is that all you want to take from me
In your arms the end is in my eyes
And I don't want to die in my sleep when you're left

Call me when you hang and
Call me when you're left
Call me when you come down
Call me when you hang

I don't want to die alone, but I don't wanna die at all
I'm not gonna keep you by the phone dear
Hang up when you've had enough
Too much to talk
Call me when you're coming down, call me when you hang
All is well that ends well, but all is well that ends
Call me when you hang
Call me when you
Hang your head and cry if you like, but all is well that ends
