I am beside you, I am beside you
I am beside you, I am beside you
Look for me, look for me
I am beside you, look for me
I try to forget, to remember that nothing is something
Where something is meant to be
I am beside you, I am beside you
Look for me, look for me
I think they've, well they've gathered here for me
I am within you, you are within me
I am beside you, you are beside me
I think they're singing to be free, I think they're singing to be free
I think my friends have gathered here for me
I think they've gathered here for me
To be beside me
Look for me, look for me
I am beside you, you are beside me
You are beside me

I was reading Slim Aarons and I got to thinking that I thought
Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like
All of these debutantes
Smiling for miles in pink dresses and high heels on white yachts
But I'm not
Baby, I'm not
No, I'm not
That, I'm not
I've been tearing around in my fucking nightgown
24/7 Sylvia Plath
Writing in blood on the walls
'Cause the ink in my pen don't work in my notepad
Don't ask if I'm happy, you know that I'm not
But, at best, I can say I'm not sad
'Cause hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
I had fifteen-year dances
Church basement romances, yeah, I've cried
Spilling my guts with the Bowery Bums
Is the only love I've ever known
Except for the stage, which I also call home, when I'm not
Servin' up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad
Hello, it's the most famous woman you know on the iPad
Calling from beyond the grave, I just wanna say, "Hi, Dad"
I've been tearing up town in my fucking white gown
Like a goddamn near sociopath
Shaking my ass is the only thing that's
Got this black narcissist off my back
She couldn't care less, and I never cared more
So there's no more to say about that
Except hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman with my past
There's a new revolution, a loud evolution that I saw
Born of confusion and quiet collusion of which mostly I've known
A modern day woman with a weak constitution, 'cause I've got
Monsters still under my bed that I could never fight off
A gatekeeper carelessly dropping the keys on my nights off
I've been tearing around in my fucking nightgown
24/7 Sylvia Plath
Writing in blood on your walls
'Cause the ink in my pen don't look good in my pad
They write that I'm happy, they know that I'm not
But, at best, you can see I'm not sad
But hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
Hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have
But I have it
Yeah, I have it
Yeah, I have it
I have

Soms zijn dagen in oktober
Net zo warm als in de zomer
Soms zijn nachten in augustus bitterkoud
De seizoenen slaan op hol zegt ze
De herfst is nu al in het land
Het zijn de medicijnen zegt ze
Het doet alles weer verdwijnen zegt ze
Alles in mijn hoofd dooft langzaam uit
Ze staat recht, ze knikt en gaat naar huis
Babbelt verder in zichzelf

Bladeren van goud
Bladeren van goud
Kijk, ze dwarrelen door de lucht
en voor je het weet is het voorbij
Bladeren van goud
Bladeren van goud

Ik heb een foto van ons twee
Barcelona jaren negentig
Ik zou hem sturen als ik wist waar je nu woont
Ik zou elk jaar verjaardagsbloemen brengen
omdat je me de wereld hebt getoond

De heuvels van Toscane
De pleinen van Berlijn
Wist ik veel dat er een eind kwam
aan de reis

Bladeren van goud
Bladeren van goud
Bladeren van goud
Bladeren van goud
Kijk, ze dwarrelen door de tijd
en voor je het weet is het voorbij
Bladeren van goud

Bladeren van goud
Bladeren van goud
We dwarrelen door de tijd
en voor je het weet is het voorbij

Bladeren van goud

In Carolina
There were pictures on the wall
And the pain is lighter
The house is empty now and only shadows fall
And when you cross over
I hope she's waiting there for you
When you cross over
Please know that I'll always love you
When you cross over
Into the spaces in the blue
When you cross over
I hope your pain returns into the light
When you cross over tonight
My brother
Born in Alabama just as winter calmed
My family moved to Carolina
In the shadows of the pines and lumberyards
And when you cross over
I hope they're waiting there for you
When you cross over
Please know that I'll always love you
When you cross over
Into the spaces in the blue
And may your pain return into the light
When you cross over tonight
I know you didn't wanna leave this way
I know you tried your best to hide it
I'm gonna love you now, anyway
In Carolina
Roses bloom beside the house
Your brother and your sister, your mother and your father
All of your friends gather around
And when you cross over
I hope they're waiting there for you
When you cross over
Please know that I'll always love you
When you cross over
To the space between the blue
And all the pain dissolves into the light
When you cross over tonight

De kins wachte, de kins haope
De kins doeme det ut luk
En in gedachte, kinse slaope
Maar ik lig wakker op de ruk
Kiek oorelang, nao detzelfde rotbehang
Ik Huur allein maar
Dich kriegs hulp van den tied jong
Den tied sleip dich doardoor
Maar wie langer, wie groeter de spiet
En alweer ein volgend oor
Ut Is neet det ik dich iets verwiet
Ik bin waekelangk den tel al kwiet
Hald mich ens vas en dan luetse mich pas
As ik alles vergaete bin los
En bin stil of zeg zaach:

Wievuul daag ut mich auk kos
Aai mich en zing,
Zing zoeleef det ik dink
Aan det zinge,
Allein aan dien stum
En dan zweef ik zoemei
Op dien leedje en drei mich
Noeits mier um
Alle jaore, al os eige kefeejs
In Dublin, Gent en thoes
Alle waore, en waas dich met eur dees
En edere harde voes
Die veul ik nog maar leever toch
Vergoot ik alles noow
Hald mich ens vas en dan luetse mich pas
As ik alles vergaete bin los
En bin stil of zeg zaach:
Ut kump good,
Wievuul daag ut mich auk kos
Aai mich en zing,
Zing zoeleef det ik dink
Aan det zinge,
Allein aan dien stum
En dan zweef ik zoemei

As ik alles vergaete bin los
En bin stil of zeg zaach:

Aai mich en zing,

Aan det zinge,
Allein aan dien stum
En dan zweef ik zoemei
Op dien leedje en drei mich
Noeits mier um

Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive
And the world I'll turn it inside out, yeah
I'm floating around in ecstasy
So, (don't stop me now)
(Don't stop me)
'Cause I'm having a good time, having a good time
I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky like a tiger
Defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go, there's no stopping me
I'm burnin' through the sky, yeah
200 degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
(Don't stop me now)
If you wanna have a good time
Just give me a call
(Don't stop me now)
'Cause I'm having a good time
(Don't stop me now)
Yes, I'm havin' a good time
I don't want to stop at all, yeah
I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars on a collision course
I am a satellite I'm out of control
I am a sex machine ready to reload like an atom bomb
About to oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, explode
I'm burnin' through the sky, yeah
200 degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you
Hey, hey, hey
(Don't stop me, don't stop me, ooh, ooh, ooh) I like it
(Don't stop me, don't stop me) Have a good time, good time
(Don't stop me, don't stop me) Woah
Let loose, honey, all right
Oh, I'm burnin' through the sky, yeah
200 degrees, that's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit (hey)
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you (hey, hey)
I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball
(Don't stop me now)
If you wanna have a good time (ooh, alright)
Just give me a call
(Don't stop me now)
'Cause I'm having a good time (hey, hey)
