lyrics

SHE'S AFTER SOMEONE ELSE

She's so beautiful and gay, but she's after someone else, and
I'd like to spend the night with her but she's after someone else
Sweet words I want to sing, but she's after someone else
and I don't know what to say, 'cause she's after someone else

I'm jealous and I'm drunk, gonna by myself another drink
It's late at night and I'm feeling sick and I vomit in the sink
She's after someone else but I can't get her off my mind
She's after someone else and that someone else is blind

She tries to make a pass at her, and I watch the way they dance
Ooh, the way she pleases her, I don't think I got a chance
She tries to take her home with her, but it ain't her lucky day
So now she keeps me company, but she looks the other way

So here we are, we're both alone… she's after someone else
She says Goodbye, then she goes home, she's after someone else
I'm loaded, and I'm feeling low, she was after someone else
I think I'd better go, bad luck I guess, gotta try some other time

I'm jealous and I'm drunk, gonna by myself another drink
It's late at night and I'm feeling sick and I vomit in the sink
She's after someone else but I can't get her off my mind
She's after someone else, Leaving me behind..

LUCHTKASTEEL

Wil ik teveel, als ik hoop dat mijn geliefde
zomaar mijn leven binnen wandelt?
Vraag ik teveel, als ik wil dat mijn verhaal
buiten alle regels handelt?

Als ik niet rechts van de weg loop
maar links tegen de stroom in
dan bots ik tegen je op en
neem je mee mijn droom in

Ik pluk je zo van de straat
Maar dat is niet hoe het gaat
Ik weet het
Soms slaat mijn fantasie op hol

Ik weet het
Soms kan het zich tegen me keren
en is het beter
eens traditioneel te proberen te zeggen
wat iedereen zegt
Te doen wat iedereen doet

In een bar
verlegen, in de war
Zo doodgewoon
een drankje aanbieden en
vragen of ze
mee naar huis gaat
