Reasons 04:02
Reasons Is there a way to escape Is there a reason for us staying here now We are not finished yet here But we can choose between to break or to bow The walls are falling apart The ceiling's coming down inch by inch by inch We have no chance to escape We have no reasons to cling to, cling to, cling to Don't cheer too loud, there's no way out Don't lose the time, don't start to doubt Why are we trapped in this place Can anybody tell us what is the use, the use, the use We have to work our way out But we don't know what we're expected to do Some unknown mission is keeping us From walking out off this isolated room We'll need all help we can get To tell us what we are expected to do Don't cheer too loud, there's no way out Don't lose the time, don't start to doubt Is there a light in the distance That's leading us all out off this place Is there a voice in the dark That we can listen to to show us the way Is there a way to escape Is there a reason for us staying here now We are not finished yet here But we can choose between to break or to bow Don't cheer too loud, there's no way out Don't lose the time, don't start to doubt

I know why 03:18
I know why I know why birds and people have to be so shy I don't know why everybody has to be way down low Suddenly I discover broken brass bands at the corner of the street Two thousand fallen angels imitating a dancing beat Looked up...a Salvation Army and asked a lady for a dance But she took, she took the bible producing several lines I couldn't understand See the hands turning stuck in the middle of the clock Hear the sound moving stuck in the middle of the rock See the hands turning stuck in the middle of the clock Hear the sound moving stuck in the middle of the rock Stick to god, don't move your legs, dancing is illegal and a sin Well you're missing what we're playing, oh boy, it's a psalm, it's a hymn She went away, left me alone, leaving her trombone for my sweet lips Hoping that I would praise the Lord, but instead I felt her fingertips See the hands turning stuck in the middle of the clock Hear the sound moving stuck in the middle of the rock See the hands turning stuck in the middle of the clock Hear the sound moving stuck in the middle of the rock See so clear hurting my eyes by coming too damn near I know why the streets look empty with a rainy sky See the hands turning stuck in the middle of the clock Hear the sound moving stuck in the middle of the rock See the hands turning stuck in the middle of the clock Hear the sound moving stuck in the middle of the rock

Heaven can wait And as the night falls I hear a sad Chinese blues Some fragile notes mixed up with a saxophone tune And as the night falls I hear five holy mountains I hear a desperate rain, a desperate rain And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls I hear desert hymns I see optical illusions of an evening in the past Before the moon comes up There’s the absence of a dancing girl I hear a silent love song Before the moon comes up, heaven can wait Before the moon comes up, heaven can wait Before the moon comes up, heaven can wait Before the moon comes up, heaven can wait And as the sun sets the light is fading away The shadows melting with the darkness outside Before the night falls The music gets softer and softer So in the end the silence is all that is left And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls, heaven can wait And as the night falls, heaven can wait

about

The four songs on this album date from the time we had a new wave band called Tenzing. We decided to re-record some of the songs from that period. Please pay attention to the silly lyrics Frank wrote those days...
