A VERY HAPPY HOUR
OJO 2004

She was only pretending
while I was spending
all my money on cheep love
coming to me in overflow
from that beautiful girl on my lap
bringing all my secret dreams closer
with showing me the real deal
without concealing the truth
smiling so naturally white
while the asking price were told
I could only continue with being bold

Living by the hour
no time to be sour
dying by the hour
no time to be a coward

She was only pretending
while I was spending my time
escaping in her wonderful charm and warmth
fully understanding that it was a fools love
that were growing so strong inside
but why should I hide
my needs and wishes for anyone
if I cant find real love I just have to buy some
even if I have to walk home alone
those fine memories will remain incredible strong
until the next time I feel the urge for closeness

She was only pretending
while I was spending
every bit that was left of my soul
so I could force myself to really believe
that there was nothing wrong in paying for love
since the were no other solutions to be found
I went along for the joyride
even when I knew it would destroy my pride
she was only pretending
and I kept on spending my life in her arms
listening to her demands and commands
doing the best I could
until the bell rang
for this time
