"I Have Wanted To Go There"
01 Proverb
Let love and faithfulness
never leave you
Bind them around your neck
Write them on
the tablets of your heart
02 Warm winter coats
I wanna go to the coastline with you
watch the ocean dance it's so beautiful
this time of the year
We would have to put on our warm winter coats
cause the wind is not friendly it's rather cold
but i'd try and keep you warm
We would have to hold hands or else we would freeze
and i would be so thankful
you would wanna spend this moment with me
And i'd wish time stood still
When the show had come to an end
we would go and find the coziest café in town
and order two cups of tea
We would talk about everything we would
share some secrets and share laughter and tears
I wanna share it all with you
I guess this daydream has come to an end
there's only one thing i wanna do i'll start it again
Oh come with me
03 Hope faces doubt
I am packing my suitcase i'm leaving
I am heading for the coast are you joining?
I don't know for how long i'll be staying
I'll be reading the letters i need some inspiration
I'll be figuring out
why my hope faces doubt
these days
I'll be figuring out
why my dreams are fading out
I'll be figuring out
why my hope faces doubt
these days
04 As long as it'll bring you
What our future holds we will not know untill
we go there together me and my love
i can't wait to go there with her
I don't have a clue what tomorrow will bring
but as long it'll bring her
it'll be good
I love her company
watching movies or hanging out on the beach
She makes me so happy
making me laugh by trying to imitate me
I love her and she loves me
05 You turn
Five summers have passed since winter you and I
took our first step and i had to defy
my insecurety and the fear of being let down
but i could not stand not knowing if you'd be my girlfriend
And last year i went down on my knee
although you were not ready
and as i stood ther suprisingly shy i truely realized
it's you i wanna see walking down that isle towards me
I'm taking a you turn for real
I'm taking a you turn
When you're down i'll let you know
that i care and love you so
And i'm sure that you'll be the one that will bring a smile
back to my face when it has not been there for days
And i look foreward to all the great times
that we'll have and i have no doubt
that our love will always stay strong and always be true
and i hope you know, girl, i am so in love with you
I'm taking a you turn for real
I'm taking a you turn
06 Where you're suppose to be
When night time comes i try to hide
I won't let it in cause you're not by my side
like you're suppose to
All day long i'll get throug
without too much thinking of you but when night time comes
i can't help it
I am not where i'm suppose to
You are not where you're suppose to be
Here with me
I can't stop to think about you
I can't stop to think about you darling
I love you darling
07 Out of here
Things around me moves so fast i got no space to breathe
I cannot keep up with it's pace
My world is on speed right now and i'm sertainly not
It affects the way i feel inside
And why cannot my head always agree with my heart
that would make things less complicated
And i like being busy but i don't enjoy swamped
I feel like i'm drowning right now
Take me out of here, leave this place together with me
If only for a while, i need to get out of here
Out of here
My eyes they miss the ocean and my ears the sound of sea
my nose the smell of salty breeze
My thoughts is claustrofobic they are acing in my head
they need to get out of here
Take me out of here, leave this place together with me
If only for a while, i need to get out of here
Out of here
08 Definitely do
Sometimes she try and remind me of all
the things about her i might not like at all
and she asks me if i still want to go through
to be honest with you
I definitely do
When i stand there beside my lovely white bride
and the priest turnes to me and asks me if i
will stand by her side for the rest of my life
to be honest with you
I definitely do
Some people they tell me that I am too young
to understand now that what i'm doing is wrong
but they realy don't know you the way that i do
to be honest with you
our love is true
09 Each other
This is new this is something good i know
Where i'm going i have not been before
But i've wanted to go there for some time
And i hope we can go there
with each other
Accompanied by the setting sun
we set sails for a different continent
With the gentle tentions soothing in between
the feelings we might have
for each other
Your voice is all i hear
Our hands is what i feel
Your eyes is all i see
Your thoughts is what's concerning me
We are
with each other
10 Turned to his guitar
He's sitting there with his guitar on his lap
playing chords within his view
He has played them hundreds of times before
but they're always kinda new
but he important part is that he's playing
them for you
In his room or somewhere else
as long as his alone
The words he sings is different
it's a never ending song
but they always meen the same
and it's God please come
He can sing about a news story
he can sing about a tree
He can sing about his litlle sister
or a song of prophecy
but are always all
he needs to see
When he's scared or feels alone
he turnes to his guitar
He needs a patient listener
and he knows that you are
always there
cause he once asked you to always be there
the guy i'm singin' about is me
if you did not understand
i'm sitting here singing on my song
as Jesus holds my hand
And he holds it tight
cause that is what i need right now
11 Sad eyes
Tell me what's on your heart
Cause i really want to know
I see your sad sad eyes
But i don't see what's behind them
Share your burden with me
I can't watch you bear it on your own
A cold cold wind has shook you off your guard
but the wind is about tu turn and we
all know how you feel
Tell me what's on your heart
Cause i really want to know
12 Old man
i've read all the book i was suppose to read
I've seen all the things that you wanted me to see
oh lord, come and get me
I've walked through storms that others have not
i've seen more pain than i ever thought i would see
oh lord come and get me
i've seen my son and my daughter too
grow up so well they both love you
oh lord, come and get me
My wife she left me several years ago
her time was up i had to let go
oh lord, don't you think it is time for me too
I feel the day is about to arrive
when there will be no need for me to strife anymore
oh lord come and get me
Ooo o ooooo o o ooo o ooo
