(chorus):
I'm in love with a girl and she's in love with me
When i look to her mind i can only see tears
If she'd blow me a kiss i would wait for years
I'm in love with a girl she's in love, with...

If we wait for church now
Can we see diekirche?
Broken china on the bull platter
Time bomb tick-tickin' on
She's a foxy little thing now
I like the way she makes me swing
Like the sound of the sunday prayer
She got no time for the marble chatter

I wait by you
Feel the fire
Searching for the
Taste

Boom
Time

Judas set me free
This shit is killing me now
We got a buzz from the white water
Time bomb tick-tickin' on
My heart is pumpin' like a sieve, girl
Feel the bone chip from the strain
I think we'll wait a little longer now
Time ticks like a freight train

I wait by you
Feel the fire
Searching for the
Taste
Touch

Boom
Time

Lyrics: | "One Love" - Bob Marley. |
One love, One heart
Let's get together and feel all right
Hear the children crying (One Love)
Hear the children crying (One Heart)
Sayin' give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Sayin' let's get together and feel all right

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One Love)
There is one question I'd really love to ask (One Heart)
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own?
Believe me

One Love, One Heart
Let's get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One Love)
So shall it be in the end (One Heart)
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
One more thing

Let's get together to fight this Holy Armageddon (One Love)
So when the Man comes there will be no no doom (One Song)
Have pity on those whose chances grove thinner
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation

Sayin' One Love, One Heart
Let's get together and feel all right
I'm pleading to mankind (One Love)
Oh Lord (One Heart)

Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Let's get together and feel all right. END.
