Are you deaf

Everything is so quiet

Cannot sense any sound

Have tried to get drunk

Am completely clear

Wanted to wipe you out of my blood

But it does not work

Would like to kill memories

Always see your face

Strings me all the time like a knife

Even hide in your dreams

Get up as if I was tortured

Would give it all for you

Would face everything

Cannot breathe freely anymore

Sadness burns my chest

I have made you too sad

I have always loved you

Do not know anything anymore

Killing my mind

Are you deaf

or do not want to hear me

It hurts so much

I cannot get rid of you

Cannot give you up

Must not lose you

Cannot set you free

You belong to me

Oh, I love you

You tear me apart

Do you want to destroy me?

There are no more tears

Cried away

Everything empty

I am cold

I am freezing

Unmoveingly

Eaten up by doubts about myself

My head as heavy as lead

But still too much energy

Cannot turn it off

My throat is drying out

What else can I tell you

Are you deaf?

…

What have I got to do to make you love me

(You cant’ do it)

What have I got to do to make you care

(You will not care)

What do I do when lightning strikes me

And I wake to find that you’re not there

(I’m always here)

What do I do to make you want me

(I want you)

What have I got to do to be heard

(You will not listen)

What do I say when it’s all over

(It’s over)

And sorry seems to be the hardest word

It’s sad

It’s a sad, sad situation

And it’s getting more and more absurd

It’s sad

Why can’t we talk it over?

(You will not talk to me)

Oh, it seems to me

That sorry seems to be the hardest word

What do I do to make you love me

(You will enjoy)

What have I got to do to be heard

(Please listen one more time)

What do I do when lightning strikes me

What have I got to do

What have I got to do

When sorry seems to be the hardest word

by Elton John

I'm sorry

Sorry for the devastation

Sorry for my multiple personality

Sorry for my incapacity

Sorry for my mad driven brain

Sorry for my foolish projections

... sorry, for trusting you!!!

By hitchhiking or by motorbike

Or by dodging the fare

I’ve always followed you somehow

Well, back then I never missed a concert of yours

And by night I couldn’t sleep

And if I was able to sleep, I dreamt of you

You played the bass

In every concert hall of the region

I’ve always been sitting in the first row

And you were exciting me so, so much

Bass

You were a goddess in my eyes

And sometimes you gave that look

And I thought: “Damn!”

And then I was totally strung out again

I’ve been with you all the time

And that convinced you in the end

We wanted to stay together forever

And, generally, that thing with you, it was so great

You can impossibly describe it

And now you’re living in another place

And your bass is put in the basement

Come on, get that thing out once more and play it as lovely as you used to

You played the bass

In every concert hall of the region

I’ve always been sitting in the first row

And you were exciting me so, so much

Bass

You were a goddess in my eyes

And sometimes you gave that look

And I thought: “Damn!”

And then I was totally strung out again

Bass

Bass

Bass

I searched for you a thousand times

How many times did I curse you?

I ran after you

Banished you from my brain

And time and again

And time and again

I only loved you

I dreamed you up a thousand times

How often did I miss out on you?

I touched you hesitantly

I always just failed to reach you

And time and again

And time and again

I only loved you

I succumbed to many a woman

Laid in many a bed

Moaned and writhed

Didn’t find you anymore

And, my lips sore from other kisses,

I could only think of you

Rubbed myself against stranger’s skin

I remained faithful to you

So many empty hours already

I sat foolishly by the phone

And I hoped, in my delusion,

Only to waste my time

And time and again

And time and again

I only loved you

I took you into my heart

Just to be alone with you

I closed my eyes

And imagined you in color

And time and again

And time and again

I only loved you

Other hands held me

None could hang on to me

The other women who came to me

I called by your name

Other hands brushed my legs

None were like yours

I undressed others

I never cheated on you

I searched for you a thousand times

How many times did I curse you?

I ran after you

Banished you from my brain

And time and again

And time and again

I only loved you  

I dreamed of you a thousand times

Missed out on you a thousand times

Touched you a thousand times

Failed to reach you a thousand times

And time and again

And time and again...

I love you still

Things come, things go

The sense and nonsense of life

Head in the clouds, head in the sand

Flew high and so often burned

Everything turns and it turns daily

The strength in you supports and betrays you

Man in the mirror – hate or love?

He pushes you in front of him and he tires you out

And you want to be someone else

You can’t think of anyone

And you don’t want to do what you’re doing

And regardless, you’re sitting here again

And write the whole night through

False pride, vanity

Your life, and no time for life

Books written full with this emptiness

Your nightmare on cloud seven

And I close my eyes to all these questions

’Cause it’s hard to carry the doubt

On your shoulders

So I close my eyes to believe in something

That’s worth it to love, in order to love life

Here on cloud seven

Things come, things go

Afraid of the fall, it’s better to stand for nothing at all

Nothing more to see in the flood of images

And then to go down losing the fight

Heading to the Catacombs at night

Drinking again to counter the hangover

And disappearing into the crowd

Believing in nothing, but miracles

And you want to be somewhere else

It just doesn’t occur to you

Knowing everyone, but trusting no one

Everything’s been said and no one wants to hear it

It would be so easy, if it wasn’t so simple

And all the contradictions are silenced

My nightmare on cloud seven

And I close my eyes to all these questions

’Cause it’s hard to carry the doubt

On your shoulders

So I close my eyes to believe in something

That’s worth it to love, in order to love life

And I close my eyes to all the questions

I’m tired of the doubts after all these days

The world is dully peeking through my window

I’m dreaming holes into my head

You have conquered me, don’t you know,

Every cell in me belongs to you instead,

You have climbed my summit,

And showed me how to move the biggest mountains

When my soul lays crushed in pieces,

You but it back together with ease

You drowned me in your happiness

Took my breath away

Heat me up, cool me down, I must confess

You always believed in me, I gotta say

When I feel, I am out of options, and I just don’t know

Only you can bring me back,

Bring me back, even from the lowest low

It’s not only that I love you

It’s not only that I care

I really wouldn’t know

What I’d do without you

Not even one day, I swear

Pick me up when my head is in the clouds

Put me back on solid ground

I won’t get way pretending

You can always read my face

I love you I love you

The only message I am sending

Your smiles give me courage, whenever in need

Your smiles give me courage, and everything else

Everything else you also lead

The day is everything but ordinary

And unfortunately, there's no problem

I see me today damn similar

And somehow I find that also beautiful

It has just the right amount of cool

From a casting and admirable

It is the silence of the feelings

A warm summer that runs through me

A balmy summer, the move

And you think your heart spills over for you

Feel inundated by the sentiment

It is the unique thousands of moments

This is what is called seconds of happiness

And on that day, if you come, it's going to rain

The spring inside me is breaking the web

You will meet me with my magic

And on a hunch, I let the light on

And you, your heart spills over for you

Feel inundated by the sentiment

It is the unique thousands of moments

This is what is called seconds of happiness

Your sweet as sugar, red mouth, sucks all the words perfectly round

Even in the struggle your lips do not yield to mine

On your glowing hot cheeks I burn my fingers

Even when you throw me to the ground, I see myself as the winner

Just what is with my will, making my will spineless

You are ice! Ice cold!

You are ice! Ice cold!

My hungry heart passes through a bittersweet pain

Tell me how far, how far, how far, how far do you want to go?

My hungry heart passes through a bittersweet sword

Tell just how far, how far, how far, how far will you go?

Your eyes look through me because of someone else

When your hands touch me, they follow a plan

With your rough angels tongue, you pierce into me

You hold me close, what the heck is only that?

If I hug back, you let go of me

You are ice! Ice cold!

You are ice! Ice cold!
