5-STRING GUITAR (Floor Five (c) Oct 2014)

Tell me, tell me please how to turn these light's down low
They've been oh so bright since you've been gone

And I hear the wind, whispering your name
Everywhere I turn, I see your face like it was yesterday

Oh my how many times have I found myself sitting here thinking of u
I'm looking and trying to find a way out of these twisted blues.

And I hear the wind, whispering your name
Everywhere I turn, I see your face like it was yesterday

All I've got left to my name is a 5 string guitar
A book of matches and some irony
All I've got left to my name is a 5 string guitar
A roll of quarters and some fucked up irony

It's 5 in the morning, ghosttown
Silence I'm searching for something that no longer exists

Please there's got to be a way, a way back to you
One day I swear I'm gonna tell you the truth.

And I hear the wind, whispering your name
Everywhere I turn, I see your face like it was yesterday

All I've got left to my name is a 5 string guitar
A book of matches and some irony
All I've got left to my name is a 5 string guitar
A roll of quarters and some fucked up irony

Change Your Mind (Floor Five (c) Nov 2014)

I know, yes  I know, I've been gone so long
And I don't know what I got to do, to make you change your mind
(change your mind)
And all these years keep passing bye and I ain't got nothing, got nothing to show

And I, I want you in my arms again, in my arms
And I, I want you, in my arms, in my arms again

Changed your mind
Changed your mind

Those days, man those days, I was such a fool
And 20 years ago and everything seemed so clear to me
(so clear to me)
Now I'm standing at your door and I'm hoping you changed your mind

And I, I want you, in my arms again, in my arms
And I, I want you, in my arms, in my arms again 
And I, I want you, in my arms again, in my arms
And I, I want you, in my arms, in my arms again 

Changed your mind
Changed your mind

I know, yes I know ( what can I what can I)
I will be back for you, I will be back

STAND BY ME (Floor Five (c) Jun 2015 - Ben E. King (c) 1961)

When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me

And darling, darling stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Darling, darling stand by me
Stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

HEROES- (Floor Five (c) Dec 2015 redone Nov 2017) (David Bowie (c) 1977)

(RIP Jan 10, 2016)

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be Heroes, just for one day

And you, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we're lovers, and that is that

Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time,
just for one day
We can be Heroes, for ever and ever
What d'you say?

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing,
nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, for ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes,
just for one day

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be Heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day

I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns shot above our heads
(over our heads)
And we kissed,
as though nothing could fall
(nothing could fall)
And the shame was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes,
just for one day

We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes

We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying,
then you better not stay
But we could be safer,
just for one day

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh,
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes

Big Wheel (Floor Five (c) Jan 2016)  

And all those times, I saw you standing there
I was so scared and shy, I had no mojo in my pocket
And your jeans were so tight
And your hair glistened in the morning light
And I never thought that one day
I would ever talk to you

The night played it's melody
My heart started racing fast
My voice finally found the words
The kiss I thought I'd never get

And I, I always wanted to be the Big Wheel
The Big Wheel

And all those times, I saw you standing there
You looked so scared and shy, you had no mojo in your pocket
And you played guitar
And your voice moved me like no one else 
And I never thought that one day
I would ever talk to you

I would ever talk to you

The night played it's melody
My heart started racing fast
My voice finally found the words
The kiss I thought I'd never get

And I, I always wanted to be the Big Wheel
The Big Wheel

And I always wanted, to be the Big Wheel
And I always wanted, to be the Big Wheel
And I always wanted

BLOW MY MIND- (Floor Five (c) Jan 2017) 

I want you, I want you...
I want you to blow my mind, 
and take me back to a better time, oh yeah
I want you, I want you.
I want you to blow my mind, 
and take me back to a better time, oh yeah

Pappy's got a brand new Cadillac
Take a look around, see what I see
The world’s gone mad, zombies in the street
They’re walking two by two’s and three by three’s 
Everybody’s trying to take a bite out of me
The White House is silent, but the drones are in the air
None is listening and nobody cares, no, no

I want you...

I want you to blow my mind.  
I want you to blow my mind.

There she's walking across the street,
horns start blaring, 
her red eyes flaring
I think she wants a piece of me, 
and I say let's go, 
let's get out of here,
let's go, I want you near.
let's go, baby...
oh she wants to dance, 
the little devil, she wants to dance.
You know what I'm talking about.

I want you to blow my mind.  
I want you to blow my mind.

Blow My Mind

COME TOGETHER- (Beatles (c) 1969, 
Floor Five (c) Jan 2017) 

Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball, he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine, he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger, he shoot Coca-Cola
He say, "I know you, you know me."
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Come together right now over me

He bag production, he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard, he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease

Come together right now over me

Right!

He roller-coaster, he got early warning
He got muddy water, he one mojo filter
He say, "One and one, and one is three."
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see

Come together right now over me

Oh
Come together
Yeah, come together
Come together
Yeah, come together

Waves - (Floor Five (c) Dec 2016)

The waves caressing the shore
And now you've become a memory in my mind
The waves in and out
And you have only just begun
Why, I don't know it's come to this.

Her world was sublime,
rising and heaving with the tide,
we were helpless starfish in a shallow pool.
Oh our love was blind.
Blinded by your sunlight,
but the wind built you up 
into a fury I could not bare, at times.

And now you've become a memory in my mind
And now you've become a memory, the waves caressing the shore, caressing
And now you've become a memory in my mind
And now you've become a memory, the waves caressing the shore
Why, I don't know it's come to this.

In my mind
In my mind
And now you've become a memory
In my mind, in my mind
A memory, a memory.

ROCK N' ROLL GANGSTERS - (Floor Five (c) Aug 2013 Remixed/Mastered Apr 2017)

It's five in the morning,
and the sun is coming up, 
and I see you smile.
What are we going to do?  
When everything is cooked in blue,
and nothing will ever change.
I take your hand,
press it softly against my face 
and I whisper to you...

We are rock n' roll gangsters.
Floating through these deserted streets at night.
Eating colours, and taking charms, they say...
'We're never gonna leave this town'.

I promised I wouldn't call,
but something deep inside keeps calling for you.
A kiss and a little tenderness,
was laced with kerosene and the sounds of the street.
Sometimes it's really hard,
when you're alone in this cruel world,
...but she whispered to me...

WHEN U COME AROUND - (Floor Five (c) Oct 2013 - Redone Sep 2017)

This game you play, I can't keep up.
It's a game of chance and none is ever going to win.
When you come around, you draw my blood,
and it's raining all over me.
I was so high, you hold the key,
open the door and set me free.

You steal my clothes.
I turn my eyes.
You leave me so empty,
and feeling so full of sin.

When you come around, you draw my blood,
and it's raining all over me.
I was so high, you hold the key,
open the door and set me free.

When you come around, 
when you come around...

I roll the dice,
like every time before.
Never thought of why,
I feel so cold and alone

When you come around, you draw my blood,
and it's raining all over me.
I was so high, you hold the key,
open the door and set me free.

You steal my clothes.
I turn my eyes.
You leave me so empty,
and feeling so full of sin.

When you come around, you draw my blood,
and it's raining all over me.
I was so high, you hold the key,
open the door and set me free.

When you come around, 
when you come around...

The First Days Of Fall

BLACK AND BLUE (Floor Five (c) June 2013 redone Jun 2017)

Time, time, time keeps passing by.
Another day, another night, another week, another year.
and I don't know why I do the things I do.
I guess it's just better off that way.

I see my reflection staring back at me.
Too much pain, too much regret, too many tears that I've spent,
and I don't know why I do the things I do.
I guess it's just better off that way.

I can't change the way I am, I can't change the world.
No matter what I do, it all keeps coming back.
I can't change the way I am, I can't change the world.
No matter what I do, it all keeps coming back.

Black and Blue.

RAIN - Floor Five (c) redone Oct 2017

Tick Tock, it's almost Twelve.
The lights are low and, 
something's in the air.

I'm full of fear, I'm full of sin.
What can I do?
to break these chains.

It's gotta rain sometime 
to wash away my sins...
it's gotta rain sometime...
and all that's left is you...

Knock knock, it's almost three.
The city's silent, but we're still awake.

I gotta a feeling, i gotta a sense.
These chains are broken, come set us free.

It's gotta rain sometime,
to wash away my sins.
it's gotta rain sometime,
and all that's left is you...

It's got to rain some time, 
and all that's left is you.  

Let it rain...

It's gotta rain sometime,
to wash away my sins.
It's gotta rain sometime,
and all that's left is you...

it's gotta rain sometime,
and all that's left is you...

WALKING ON THE MOON ( The Police/Gordon Sumner (c) 1979;  Floor Five (c) 2016)

Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break
Walking on the moon
We could walk forever
Walking on the moon
We could live together
Walking on, walking on the moon
Walking back from your house
Walking on the moon
Walking back from your house
Walking on the moon
Feet they hardly touch the ground
Walking on the moon
My feet don't hardly make no sound
Walking on, walking on the moon
Some may say
I'm wishing my days away
No way
And if it's the price I pay
Some say
Tomorrow's another day
You stay
I may as well play
Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break
Walking on the moon
We could walk forever
Walking on the moon
We could be together
Walking on, walking on the moon
Some may say
I'm wishing my days away
No way
And if it's the price I pay
Some say
Tomorrow's another day
You stay
I may as well play
Keep it up, keep it up

JEALOUSY  -  (c) Jul 2019

There they are in a restaurant, candle light.
Couples absorbing the vibe.
Then she looks at this guy walking by...

Jealousy.
Her boyfriend feels...

Ohh don't play around,
Ohh don't play with it,
Ohh don't play around with my heart.
He said.
Don't play around.

Uh oh, things end early he leaves the scene.
She pays the bill and walks outside 
to confront him by the car.
They love each other deeply.

All that matters is the love between them.
They both fear the other will leave them.

Jealousy.

And it's the same on the other side.
At the concert this lady gives him a look,
he smirks, his girl fumes, he's being a jerk.

Jealousy.
She feels...

Ohh don't play around,
Ohh don't play with it,
Ohh don't play around with my heart.
She said.
Don't play around.

Ohh don't play around,
Ohh don't play with it,
Ohh don't play around with my heart.
Don't play around.

Jealousy

Es fühlt sich wahnsinnig gut an, nach drei Jahren Abwesenheit, wieder bei euch zu sein!
