Time Passes, Listen by Wolf Kier copyright 2006-2010-2014-2022 Wolf Kier QZX3P2300101 Like a passenger I travel On a line they say is mine But the past it echoes hollow And the future leaves me blind Time. Why does it hide? Time passes, listen! Forever I can float, Lost without a care Forever I can wait But I won't find you there (Listen) Time. The time passes.... Give me time to wonder Give me time to care Give me time to hold this moment close And tell this moment that I care Tell this moment close That I was there. (Give me time!) When I was closer to the truth Closer to the truth Closer to the truth Than any man, than any man would dare.... I can rail against the fates I can set empire alight But what have I achieved If I can't capture time? Time passes, listen You find the secret package you wrapped up with great care You look inside to find You don't remember why you put it there. I travel on this line The people say is mine But the past is echoes hollow And the future, the future Leaves me blind. Where is it now? Time Passes, Listen! ++++++++++++++++++++

"Deaf Girl on the Highway" by Wolf Kier wk072 - copyright Wolf Kier 2012-2013-2022 There's a deaf girl on the highway She has a tattoo on her arm it spirals like a snake it gets longer every day as she adds the name of a town that let her down and the men that did not understand the beautiful sound that goes round and around in the mind of a deaf girl on the highway The deaf girl on the highway has a map upon her back of the places she has been and the ignorance she has seen The road to hell is not so straight as the path to heaven's gate and the map on the deaf girl's back could tell a tale! A fascinating tale of the lessons seen and the places she's been on the highway. The freedom of the sound and the beauty of the sound that goes around and around inside the mind of a deaf girl on the highway Deaf girl on the highway Her smile will take your breath away Prove there's nothing more worth listening to than the beautiful music inside of you She'll open your soul to the beautiful sounds that go round and around in the mind of deaf girl the beautiful sounds that go round and around in the mind of deaf girl She'll open your mind to the beautiful sound that goes round and around in the mind of deaf girl on the highway.

Sleep, Mama, Sleep by Wolf Kier copyright Wolf Kier 2014 2022 Sleep, Mama, Sleep There's no need to scream no more Daddy just walked out the door He'll see his whore and be back one more time tomorrow, to tell you he loves you Like on the day he met you and bring you some more sorrow Sleep, Mama, Sleep, Mama, Sleep, Mama, Sleep How many reasons do you need To pack up all your stuff and simply leave? How many more times can you bleed Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep Sleep, Mama, Sleep Chase peace in your dream A home where there is fear Leaves no hope at all Sleep, Mama, Sleep There's nothing more to say about it Nothing to debate about the bruises you don't need. Sleep, Mama, Sleep, Mama, Sleep, Mama, Sleep Sleep, Mama, Sleep Your pride won't hurt for doing so You'll be breaking some unwritten law A law that you don't need Sleep, Mama, Sleep Some promises you keep Sometimes sacrifices don't prove Worth the pain they put you through. Sleep, Mama, Sleep, Mama, Sleep, Mama, Sleep How many reasons do you need To pack up all your stuff and simply leave? How many more times can you bleed Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep Oh, Sleep on it, Mama, Sleep

"Get Well Soon" by Wolf Kier Copyright Wolf Kier 2010 2016 2022 If I don't believe I can hope till I'm blue in the face If I don't believe I can hope till I'm blue in the face This ain't about us any more, baby, it's about you Laying eyes wide shut in that hospital room Hooked up to machines that I just can't trust But if I'm to get you back, doctor says I must believe I need you to get well soon I need you to be all that you can be I got plans for you that stretch into the next century I need you to get well soon This ain't no ordinary parting Neither one of us had the chance to say goodbye Plucked out of your life as fast as lightning oh baby, baby, I'm afraid baby you gonna die... They say that God in heaven, he's got the venom They say that God in heaven, he's got the cure But baby I would give both of my hands Just to see you smile, just once more (just once more) I need you to get well soon (I must believe) I need you to be all that you can be (I must believe) I need you to get well soon (I must believe) I need you to be all that you can be (I must believe) I got plans for you that stretch into the next century (I must believe) I need you to get well soon Show me your smile Open your eyes Show me your smile Open your eyes Show me your smile Open your eyes (I must believe) Show me your smile

Chase The Hope Horse wk002 Copyright Wolf Kier 2006-2010-2012-2014-2022 You can chase the hope horse All around the race course You can bet and die You can bet and win But buddy your chances, your chances Your chances are slim You can tilt you hat up against the sun You can hide your face, because you never won The hope horse, the hope horse, the hope horse just runs and runs and runs and runs A gambler's work is never done Watch that hope horse run and run and run and run Gambler beware Luck only comes to The privileged few..... Tickets ripped all around This rich man's playground Make a fool of you, the hope horse, The hope horse will never come... A gambler's work is never done Watch that hope horse run and run and run and run A gambler's work is never done Watch that hope horse run and run and run and run Hope is a doing word
