ماجده الرومى - كلمات - يسمعني حين يراقصني

Original Song
by Phil Dutton & Les Corlett

Lyrics

If saying goodbye was so easy,
Why do I want to run back to you?
I stand terrified you can't see me,
Time and again I wish it weren't true.

I'm blind to the concept,
Of having known love,
I stand defeated,
As I see above the oncoming rain.

Before me stands beauty,
I let it slip away.
I still feel the loss,
There's no more I could say, 
about love, love, love,
about love,
about love, love, love.

You know when that feeling,
of loss soon subsides.
What the hell was I thinking?
I just couldn't decide.

I was bound I was broken,
And hope turned to dust.
It may well sound silly,
But I've no one to left to trust.

Before me stands beauty,
I let it slip away.
I still feel the loss,
There's no more I could say, 
about love, love, love,
about love,
about love, love, love.

I sit in the darkness,
Cigarette in my hand,
Life hasn't turned out,
The way that I planned

Well call me a taxi,
I want to go home.
There's no sense in my walking,
These streets all alone,

For some it is lasting,
But my chance slipped away.
I was scared of her knowing,
That I'd fail her someday,
Who would think me foolish,
For wasting half my life on foolish dreams.
Yeah, who would think me foolish,
For wasting half my life on foolish dreams.

IF SAYING GOODBYE WAS SO EASY

Lyrics

[Chorus]
OFFER EXPIRES WHILE YOU WAIT
OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY
OFFER EXPIRES WHILE YOU WAIT
OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY

[Verse 1]
Shove it down, more and more, don’t stop
You want everything, eat off the top
Gulp the fuel, stack bills, take the lot
Take the space, fill your plate, don’t let it rot
Greed in your eyes, hands grabbing wide
Snatch up the hours—don’t let ‘em slide
Tear at their pride, take what they hold
You consume it all, savage and bold

[Pre-Chorus]
Hurry up! Gorge on everything you see
Time is running out, you claim each piece for free
Swallow what’s left, trample what I offer
Devour faster, never let your appetite suffer

[Chorus]


[Bridge]
Don’t slow down, mouths open, hands out
Inhale power, respect, leave them in doubt
Take what you want, keep nothing behind
Hunger’s a monster, let nothing unwind

[Chorus]

Hunger

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Remember when they said
That I only lived by whim
Guess they were right this time
And I'm glad I didn't listen to them
The wind against my face
Has never felt so real
Like every breath I take
Is teaching me to feel

[Pre-chorus]
And I know you're going through it too
But please don't blame yourself, there's nothing you could do

[Chorus]
I'm falling for the last time
But I've never felt so free
I'm falling for the last time
And the world's so beautiful to me

[Post-chorus]
(Ooh, I'm falling, oh-oh)
(Falling, I'm falling)

[Verse 2]
The clouds beneath my feet
Look just like ocean waves
The sun is warm and kind
Like memories of your face
I wish I had more time
To keep falling with my friend
But maybe that's the point
Of living till the end

[Pre-chorus]
So when they talk of how it ends
Just know I found my peace in this descending friend

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Time slows down, I see it all so clear
Every moment that brought me here
Every laugh, every tear
Was worth the ride, my dear
(Was worth the ride)

[Final Chorus]
I'm falling for the last time
But I've never felt so free
I'm falling for the last time
And you're so beautiful to me

[Outro]
(La da da, la da da)
Tell them I felt like flying
(La da da, la da da)
Tell them I wasn't crying

Last Fall

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just another Saturday night
People splashing left and right
Someone brought a giant float
I'm chillin' on my inflatable boat
There's this guy against the wall
Not moving much at all
Brought the fancy cabernet
But won't jump in anyway


[Pre-Chorus]
I've been watching for a while
Every time someone walks by
He just gives a little nod
Like he's taking notes for God


[Chorus]
That dude's been here all night
It's a pool party but he's dry
And he's stiff as a twig but he brought in all the wine
And hey, in advance
Since I have the chance
Can you please tell me Why Won't Jesus Dance?

[Verse 2]
Got his toga all drawn up
Won't even hold a paper cup
Everyone is having fun
But he's acting like he's done
Standing there all proper-like
Looking slightly deified
If we could only dim that light
He might loosen up tonight


[Pre-Chorus]
I don't mean to make him stressed
But man, he looks so oddly dressed
Like he stumbled in by chance
To a different kind of dance


[Chorus]


[Bridge]
Maybe he's just scared to fall
Someone would surely catch him though
Sometimes being free and wild
Takes a little while
(or two)


[Chorus]

lyrics

The sense of paranoia,
That rooted me to the spot,
Was torn down with such anger,
That I totally lost the plot.
I hid in plain view watching,
Just to see what they would do.

I walked the streets past midnight, 
And started howling at the moon.
I rolled myself a cigarette, 
On the park bench by the lake.
I tried to stem the tears,
As my mind began to break.

I revel in sob stories,
And most of mine are true.
I'm a victim of my own delusion,
And I haven't got a clue.
What the hell I'm mad about?
What the fuck did I lose?

I've got to break out of this state of mind,
I have to take control.
This shit's been going on long enough, 
And I'm tired of feeling cold.

I saw you hoola dancin',
In a dream that I once had.
I was trippin' with the big boys,
And they couldn't hold me back.
From tellin' you I need you,
But you laughed right in my face.

I'm sick of feeling sorry for myself, 
I've got nothing left to prove.
I've got to break out of this state of mind, 
I have to take control. 
This shit's been going on long enough, 
And I'm tired of feeling cold.

I'm sick of feeling sorry for myself, 
I've got nothing left to prove.
I've got to break out of this state of mind, 
I have to take control. 
This shit's been going on long enough, 
And I'm tired of feeling cold.

A Fragile State of Mind” is a brutally honest descent into paranoia, self-delusion, and the desperate fight for control. It paints the picture of late-night streets, cigarette smoke, and the weight of a mind on the edge of breaking. With confessions that cut deep—sometimes bitter, sometimes darkly humorous—the song wrestles with vulnerability, anger, and the need to escape a cycle of self-pity.

It’s both a howl at the moon and a cry for liberation, balancing raw emotion with defiance. A soundtrack for anyone who’s ever felt trapped inside their own head, fighting to claw their way back into the light.

Volker Carl Jacoby - Autor, Poet, Kabarettist, Comedian, Liedermacher, Synchronsprecher, Journalist, Pastor - https://www.literaturland-saar.de/personen/volker-carl-jacoby

Author, poet, cabaret artist, songwriter, voice actor, journalist and even pastor: Volker C. Jacoby is active in many fields.

He spent his childhood and youth in St. Ingbert. Saarland, Germany, where he attended the humanistic and classical language branch of the State Secondary School. After university and various jobs, he began working freelance for „Saarländischer Rundfunk“ Radio, initially as a correspondent for the SR 3 regional news program, in parallel with his readings and literary solo cabaret programs. This was followed by roles as a narrator for radio plays, as a voice actor, and for various commercials.

In 1977, Jacoby teamed up with Schorsch Seitz to form the duo "Jacoby & Schorsch." Together, they primarily composed humorous songs in Standard German and the Rhenish-Franconian-Saarland dialect with a cabaret-like, ironic touch. Their dialect songs, in particular, filled a clearly existing gap in the market, especially since "SR 3 Saarlandwelle" featured them permanently on their programming, thus making them known to a wider audience. Subsequently, "Jacoby and Schorsch" produced three vinyl albums and three singles. During their tours, they also performed open-air gigs with rock bands.

Soon well known beyond the borders of Saarland, the duo received engagements in Berlin, Stuttgart (Südfunk), Cologne (Westdeutscher Rundfunk), Frankfurt, Munich, Basel, and Brussels, among others. During a TV recording at the Renitenztheater in Stuttgart, they also met Mathias Richling and Karl Dall. Jacoby collaborated with the latter several times for RTL on the radio show "Die schlaue Stunde." In 1993, the popularity of "Jacoby & Schorsch" peaked – not least through their appearances with Hanns Dieter Hüsch  (A "Hüsch Evening" with music in memory of his friend and cabaret colleague Hanns Dieter Hüsch was added to the repertoire – later in 2010).

He moved to France 1994. Since then, he has been performed readings, including singing. His dialect contributions have provided him with a rewarding outlet in the "Mundartring Saar" (Saarland dialect circle), including as a reciter of poems by deceased fellow authors, to whom he lends his voice.

Constantly prolific in literary terms, his poems are in the tradition of comic poetry in the style of Wilhelm Busch, Christian Morgenstern, Joachim Ringelnatz, Eugen Roth, Heinz Erhardt, and Robert Gernhardt. Volker C. Jacoby also publishes his poetry and prose on LiteratPro, Facebook, and YouTube. Since 2025, he has been setting his poems to music and is constantly writing new songs. And, of course, he continues to write his cheerful, humorous, and often very quirky poems.
