Come Spring

Come spring
(Deadicated to Michael Veith -
Ju’ll be always on our mind)
Whereever sneaks the sun
Right into my heart
After all I`m the one
Who has been frightend
But never borne away
Spreading my wings
Songbird`s singing for the day
Come spring
Birds of passage
Drawn to better places
While I spend my time
On winters chase
I hardly dare to think
Of the ones who `re happy
Making it somewhere else
Come spring
I`m as desperate
As a man can be
Is it my my only feature
I can sing about
But will you take my voice
Reflecting me in your ear
At least as honest and true
As my fear

NO MATTER OG AGE
She was his girlfriend
He was her first big love
People said that she was too young
For a lot of things they´d already done
Out of the blue he said It´s over
I just have to go my way
You know some things don´t last forever
Please don´t mind I cannot stay
She feels like her life is falling into pieces
People talking big you´ll soon be okay
Sayin´ girl you´re so young
There is time enough to find another one
Time is a healer
But it doesn´t help today
Ain´t no matter of age
The pain is the same
The pain is the same
For many years they lived together
Shared their lifes and raised their kids
He thought he knew her oh so well
Man better than any word can tell
All of a sudden she walked out on him
Left her home and family
Watch him sitting paralysed and lonely
Staring a hole into the wall
Man it hurts even when you´re fourty
And you realize you can´t turn back time
Won´t help to find out what´s gone wrong
Man you had your day she´s gone
Time is a healer
But it doesn´t help today
Ain´t no matter of age
The pain is the same
The pain is the same

ROAD MARKS (NOT HAPPY)
Road marks in my eye
Nothing but the sound of the engine
An´the car wheels on the street rollin`by
O man I feel uneasy
Don´t know if it´s gloom or yearning
That´s spreading out inside of me
The bus driver he puts on his sun glasses
And she´s reading
From the corner of my eye I cast a glance at her skin
Oh how I wish we`d be drivin`all the way Berlin
Though I don´t even know
How to bear this sticky stillness
Only half an hour till Cologne
I´m not happy
but happieness ain´t the aim of life
But what´s wrong
with cravin` to be happy now and then
before you leave
before you leave
Out of the blue a mood it falls like a shadow
It´s a state of mind I´m used to
Start a silent conversation
like talking to myself with my back against the wall
There are so many lifes that we could live
but we´re bound to one
Follow Bobby on his bloodtakes
like I did so many times since I was young
Try imagining a place he sang
where it´s always safe and warm
Songs turn out to be my best companions
Always when I feel alone
Oh man feels great don´t have to make it all the way to Berlin
cause I found some words
that seem to break the spell
at least last thirty minutes till I´m home
I´m not happy
but happieness ain´t the aim of life
But what´s wrong
with cravin` to be happy now and then
before you leave
before you leave
But what´s wrong
with cravin` to be happy now and then
before we leave
before we leave

No Mistake
Look at your hands
Doin`somethin´you never wanted to do
Look at your feet
Movin´ somewhere you never wanted to go
Listen to your words
Tellin´ something you never wanted to say
My room is empty
An inch behind me a shadow falls
I know I´m lying to myself
While I´m lookin`for shells in the water
To tell me a story
To cover up my tracks
So easy to blame it all on fate
Make no mistake
Some fears are hard to face
But the man in the moon he knows what I´m missing
He´s the one who knows he`s the one who sees it all
When you´re only searchin´for an alibi
Little blind bird is singing in his cage
Reminds me that man is free
Sometimes we forget the price we pay
What would be if there is no more responsibility
Sing me a story
To end up this fake
Remember what we lose
Make no mistake

AT LEAST SOMETIMES
Breathe deeply man as long as you can
Feel mornings fresh air fill your lungs again
Cast out poison from your head
Fill the sky with all that´s left
What you find ain´t much I guess
But it´s more than you expect
Reminds me I better spend my time
The best I can
Simply sing my songs
Ain´t life beautiful
At least sometimes
Under my skin there are scars that
I forget from time to time
Until you touch them accidentially
And it rings a bell with me
There is more to it than meets the eye
Don´t you mistake your limits for the limits of the world
Remember we`d better spend our time
Best we can
Simply sing our songs
Ain´t life beautiful
At least sometimes
Turn down the lights prehaps it helps to ease my mind
And makes me feel wee bit like I´m at home
Watch the glasses sparkling in the fading light
Like a rainbow on your face
Please don´t talk just sit still
And feel we´re not alone
Reminds me I better spend my time
Best I can
Simply sing my songs
Ain´t life beautiful
At least sometimes

TAKE MY CHANCE
Just like this train
I wish to be
on my way
Everybody`s waiting
me I´m late
day by day
Too many choices
I can´t move
missing every date
Taking this passage
without a net
and I fall
I will take my chance
this time
this time
Jaded and weary
feeling my scars
with every breath I take
Can´t turn down
what´s inside my mind
voices and memories
I will take my chance
this time
this time

MR. P. MAN ( Hidden Track )
We drove down to this big town
on a long hot sunny day
Just me and this old friend of mine
rollin´down that crooked way
Finally we knocked at the door
and a lady opened up
Man we were getting more and more upset
Welcome said Mr. P. man, welcome to the show,
Welcome boys, how do you do
On a black chair Mr. P.man
we stood like sinners in a row
handin` over the one and only tape
just hopin`for a fair review
He put it in a tape deck
and our music started to play
He bowed down his head
O god nothing he did say
Welcome Mr. P. man, welcome to the show,
Welcome Mr. P. man, how do you do
Up here on the stage
we´re playin for our souls
And I know that we have made it
when the folks they shake their bones
So what ya think Mr P. man
of what`s happening here tonight
No matter however slaighting your review will be
We do it for the people not for you
Welcome Mr. P. man, welcome to the show,
Welcome Mr. P. man, how do you do

Schluff Jull Viersen, Germany
Jamrock from Germany -
"It`s true quality music!" urteilte das Magazin Relix über
ihre Songs.
Mit ihrer Mischung aus tanzbaren Grooves, riffbetonten Rocknummern und lässigem Bar-Jazz-Soul beschwören Schluff Jull auf ihren Konzerten magische Augenblicke herauf. Und das in einem Genre, für die normalerweise Bands wie Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers oder The Band die Deutungshoheit innehaben.
