Story Behind the Song
I once decided to share a flat with a beautiful woman and after a short time
I felt in love with her. It took about half a year to find and then
three months more of hard work to renovate it. We did all together and had a great time,
but then, after living/loving there for some weeks, she suddenly wanted us to be
just friends: "I'm too young to live with the man I love... ". She decided to spend a year
in Scotland and to be "free" there.
Imagine lying on your bed after another romantic evening with candle
dinner and all that.
We hardly tried to pretend, that we're just good friends.
Imagine the girl you love three doors away and though the doors have
never been shut before - now they are. Just for principles.
Things went on like this till she left for Scotland.
HEY, Hey this is long ago and we ARE very good friends now!
I really like this way of life ;-)
Lyrics
ALL TOO LATE
(S. Weber/M. Schumpelt/J.O. Soerup)
moonlit balconies, I'm not too far from where You are
I am stepping that door
and heaven comes to who who waits
I wonder why you lost your faith
in a gambling spree
falling into reveries
so quiet in here, so peaceful here
a sad affair to know there's no one near me now
watch me bleed, I'm bleeding forever
watch me bleed, I'm bleeding forever
evening's fading in the candle glow
I'm full but I'm feeling empty
so many dreams that don't come true
I miss Your heart beating next to mine
foghorns blowing in the night
I'm sailing for some other shore
for one so young
I feel so cold
watch me bleed
no, don't pretend that You can
justify the pain and the cries
it's all too late, my dear
your face now like a photograph
when it's all too late ...just fading out
oh, watch me bleed, watch me bleed
I'm bleeding forever
oh, watch me bleed, watch me bleed
I'm dying slowly
leaving the show
