Make Me Real

Do you want to see all the shining black cars with me
and drive down the parkway to the beach
and can you imagine me and you walking down the shore
I´ve always thought you wouldn´t have no boots on
and you´re footprints would tell the long story short
as the waves wiped them and blurred out the marks
You once told me the change was gonna come
and I didn´t believe you until the steps were long gone

Do you want to make me real?

Do you want to swim with me to the rock in the horizon
and plan to swim back by night
and could you stay there if I asked you to
if our warm bodies could save us some time
I´ve always imagined you walking bare foot
and driving the car with black leather boots
But most importantly I never thought I could lose
Lose myself in you
You once told me the change was gonna come
and I believed the moon more than I believed you

Do you want to make me real?

Do you believe me if I say I´ve listened to your heart beats
while you were sleeping, while you were dreaming
I´ve touched your skin in my dreams
and watched you live and believing in me
I always wanted to be real
and you were the only one to hear me weep
in the old rooms, warm afternoons
I was almost close enough for you to feel
but in the end you needed to see me

If you want to make me real
come to the beach and drive me down the streets
I´ll stay in your rear view mirror if you need me,
keep you safe while you drive through the night
If you want to make me real
look for me in the streets, cold mirrors and city lights
I´ll wait for you in your bed at night
Even though you´ll find just the cold sheets

If you want to make me real
believe in me and call my name
When you´re feeling lonely, imagine you can see me
in this summer dress you chose for me
If you want to make me real
remember your promises you made when I was alive
remember that even a ghost can feel
If you really believe in me,
swim the warm summer thrills towards me
You know I´ve loved you since the beginning
and for that I don´t need to live

Sometimes I´m afraid to die
´til I remember I already had my time
And then I´m scared of losing you
´cause if you let me go I´ll stay lost in you
So I wish you to make me real,
to have footprints just like you

Turned into Cinder

We thought we had it,
we already got so close
We got the vine in our hands
and forgot it wasn´t a rope
I caught you sleeping,
you got me naked
We didn´t have the time as we thought

We don´t even know what we want
even though we say all the I want you´s
The dark gets us everytime
howling at the moon
as the light has gotten quicker
it turns us into fools

I just want you to say
you won´t ever forget me
you won´t ever
you won´t ever
you won´t ever forget me

How many times have we done the same mistakes?
Really, count them, count them now
How many times have I whispered your name
while watching you wave
while watching the planes
while watching his heart break

How many times have we closed the last page?
The sheets thrown out and away
How many times have you closed my eyes to say
start making up your mind
start building up your life
start to live to be mine

You just want me to say
you are not alone
you are not
you are not
you are not alone

Please let me know when to come back home
I need somebody to guide me as you need someone to call your own
Please let me move on towards the light
I need somebody to fool me the future´s always bright
You have been a dream I lost
You have been a beast to get caught
You have been too much to me
and I have turned into cinder these days
I have turned into cinder
I have turned into cinder
I have turned

I just want you to say
you won´t ever forget me
you won´t ever
you won´t ever
you won´t ever forget me

How long will it take to stop feeling a thing?
Really, how many days?
How long will it take to stop liking this game
which will never be won
which will never be played alone
which won´t end before someone breaks

How long can someone walk on home?
One step forward and at least three back
How many steps can be taken alone
without saying it´s too cold
without saying I told you so
without saying I need to let you go

You just want me to say
you are not alone
you are not
you are not
you are not alone

I thought I got you
You told me I was a fool
As more you dripped between my fingers
the more I thought I wanted you
I caught you sleeping
and lost you to the planes
So you never saw me,
sometimes just called my name
I kept telling myself it´s fine
´cause my memories kept me sane
You have been too much to me
and I have turned into cinder these days
I have turned into cinder
I have turned into cinder
I have turned
