I had a dream just the other night It looked a lot like you I saw a painting on the wall Just like the one you drew I ate a steak just the other night It tasted just like you Felt like a tank in my armour plate But you could see right through Words are easy, words are cheap Wake you up, send you to sleep Words defend when things get tough But late at night they are not enough Oh stay in the game Oh stay in the game What's in a name Send you all insane I wore a coat just the other day It felt a lot like you Emperor's new clothes and baby You could see right through So now you want my demon seed Even though you know I've been there once before Sold my soul to rock and roll Words can cut you to the quick But that old chestnut Ich Liebe Dich They only matter put to sound Grabbed from the air and written down
