Memorial beach

1. Dark is the night for all
(Pal Waaktaar)

It's time we said goodbye
Time now to decide
O' don't you feel so small
Dark is the night for all

It's time we moved out West
This time will be the best
And when the evenings fall
Dark is the night for all

It's time...yeah, to break free
It's time to pull away
For you and for me
It's time...yeah, to break free
We need to celebrate the mystery

It's time we said goodbye
Time for you and I
O' don't you feel so small
Dark is the night for all

2. Move to Memphis
(Pal Waaktaar/Magne Furuholmen

Walked around no one around
You were the one who taught me better
This old town brings me down
You were the one who told me

you've got to Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Move to Memphis
and follow you
Trace that highway
down to your doorway
Move tho Memphis
and be with you

On the day you walked away
I was the one who said
You'd better
stick around stay in town
You were the one who told me

you've got to Move to Memphis
That's what I'll do
Chase the shadow
that follows you
Trace that highway
down to your doorway
Move to Memphis
and be with you

That's what I'll do
Move to Memphis to be with you
I'm gonna be with you

3. Cold as stone
(Pal Waaktaar)

You're back again
You roam the streets
And crack again
You're back again
You're travel-worn
Standing here in the town
Where you were born
It's not your home
The mirror sees you
So alone ...
Cold as stone
Yeah
You're not your own
You feel a chill
Go through your bones
You're not your own
There's something wrong
You call you doctor
On the phone
He's not at home
You leave a message
After the tone
"I'm cold as stone"

Emerald green neon lights above
Sapphire red falls on you below
Cold as stone
Emerald green neon lights above
Sapphire reds fall on you below

You're back again
You send a curse out
In to the night
You're back allright
You're travel-worn
Standing here
In the town you were born
It's not your home
The mirror sees you
So alone ...Cold as stone
Cold as stone

4. Angel in the snow*
(Pal Waaktaar)

Angel, angel or so
Wherever you may go
Hmm, yeah...
I'll follow

And always will I be there
Shake worries from your hair
Hmm, yeah... I'll be there
Always, wherever you may go

*for Luchie

5. Locust
(Pal Waaktaar)

Don't be afaid
It's a harmless moon
All we can do
Is to assume
Our lives must change
A change is due
I hear you say
What are we gonna do

I know we'll make it
I know we'll shake it
I know we'll break it down
When all you wanna do...

O' weeping night
O' grieving sky
O' rabbit wind
You just flew by
Grant me this
Some small reward
Don't announce
Time of the final call

My dream was this:
Across the sky
A slate-grey cloud
That filled the eye
...a slate-grey cloud
... Comes through the dust
-- Locust

Dont' be afraid It's a harmless moon>

6. Lie down in darkness
(Pal Waaktaar)

With all our goals and destinations...
Everything must be this way
Vague are hopes that try our patience
Listen now to what I say

Oh, lie down in darkness
I want you next to me
Oh, lie down in darkness
Here with me

All our trials and tribulations...
Will it ever make much sense
All these years They disappear
They leave me here without defense

Oh, lie down in darkness
I want you next to me
Oh, lie down in darkness
Here with me

7. How sweet it was
(Pal Waaktaar)

Uh...yeah, that's alright
Lend us a voice
In this howling night

Just about a month ago
You made a promise, babe
Not to go
Yes, you did now
You were the heart and soul

One to the nightfall
One to the stars
One to the haunted fools we are
One to remember
One to recall
One to acknowledge
Just how sweet it was, yeah

Just about a month ago
You make a promise
Ain't that so
Yes, you did now
Into this howling night
You got
Y ou got
You got
You got me so
You got me so low
I wouldn't lie, babe
Not again
It's such a crime
To while away my time

One to remember
One to recall
One to acknowledge
Just how sweet it was
We were so happy
We were okay
We let our good thing, honey
Just slip away

Lend us a voice
In this howling night

8. Lamb to the Slaughter
(Magne Furuholmen)

I went down to the water
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Didn't know what was waiting for me there
Nobody warned me
Nobody told me
My excuse is I wasn't prepared
I drank deep from the river
And sealed up my fate
I should have seen the trap, baby
Before it was too late

We go down
We go down
We go down, it's the only way out

Who is this fool
Who believed all the stories
I wish I could say It's not me
You polluted my head
With all the things you said
I became what you wanted to see
All of these years
I've built up this hate
I had my chance coming
But now it's too late

We go down
We go down
We go down, its the only way out

9. Between your mama and youself
(Pal Waaktaar)

Hey listen honey, something you should know
This can't wait
I've been meaning to tell you a long time ago
And today's that day
I'll put it straight
No, it just can't wait
Oh sure, it took a little time
I know that's true
But this business been preying on my mind
Since I met you
The thing is babe,

Between your mama and yourself
Forced to choose and without help
With a margin, you know it's true
The one I love
Well, it's eh...prpbably you

C'mon now, stay a little while
Before you go
This thing, it's been preying on my mind
But even so
This I know You've got to know
It's got to show Yeah,
I've got to let her go

10. Memorial beach
(Pal Waaktaar)

I pace the length of my unmade room
In times of change
My bags are packed, guess I'm leaving the womb
Into the rain

We never found
A place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried

Toes in the sand, the seductive sway
Ooh...nothing better, babe
Across the bay--Sarasota Way
We held together

We never found
A place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried, yeah

Into the Rain
The Summer Rain

So we walk down to Memorial Beach
Where things began
Honey days and nights without sleep
Lost in the sand

We never found
a place to hide
Some peace of mind
God knows we tried, yeah
