Songtext Forever Stephan Eicher

Forever

Words from the mouth
drip from the tongue
lips cover teeth
and the lie is young

People are selfish
life is a beast
but the radio voice
knows how to give

The voice is rough
from shouted prayers
from the bitter curse
from despair

It's your demon lover
who makes you weak
who kisses your hair
while you sleep

The melody curls
through blue violins
drums hypnotize
through ancients sins

You open your heart
and your arms to the sound
the emptiness fills
you open your mouth
here it comes
here it comes
open wide

You're the road I'm walking
and I'll walk on you until
I realize that you carry me
and I'm standing still

I believed in the song
when it sang in my blood
I believed that together
forever was good

But love is cruel
and cheats more than I
and will punish the fool
who cannot lie

So I use my tongue
like the finest whore
for four minutes
my love is pure

I drank the champagne
that came with the rose
your love is mine
the empty bottle is yours
here it comes, here it comes, turn arround
