Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
If you’ve got someone to blame
You said one love
One life
When it’s one need
In the night
One love we get to share it
It leaves you baby if you don’t care for it
Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it’s too late
Tonight
To drag the past out
Into the light
We’re one but we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgivness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play jesus
To the lepors in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing now
It’s all I got
We’re one but we’re not the same
Well we hurt each other and we’re doin it again
You said love is a temple
Love the higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
I can’t be holdin on
To what you’ve got
When all you’ve got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You’ve got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sister
Brothers
One life but we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
Butterfly, butterfly
Flying into the wind
You can be sure of it
That’s no place to begin
Over thinking every little thing
Acknowledge the bell you can’t unring
Tomorrow, you don’t have to say what you’re thinking
You don’t have to mean what you say
Butterfly, butterfly
Flutter in to the skies
Butterfly, butterfly
Their molecular cries
Chrysalis dreams waiting on the fifth in-star
These stained glass wings could only take you so far
You don’t have to say that it matters
You don’t have to turn something in
Stay with it through thick and thin
Butterfly, begin
Butterfly, butterfly

A desert road from vegas to nowhere
some place better tham where you’re been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend
I am calling you
Can’t you hear me
I am calling you
A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby’s crying and I can’t sleep
But we both know a change is coming
coming closer, sweet release
I am calling you
Can’t you hear me
I am calling you
I am calling you
Can’t you hear me
I am calling you
A desert road from vegas to nowhere
Some place better than where you’ve been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend
A hot dry winblows right through me
The baby’s crying and I can’t sleep
But we both know a change is coming
coming closer, sweet release
I am calling you
can’t you hear me
I am calling you
Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
‘Cause I saw the end before we’d begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what’s mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won’t stop there,
I am here for you if you’d only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I’ve kissed your lips and held your hand.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I’ve been addicted to you.
Chorus (2x)
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I am a dreamer and when I wake,
You can’t break my spirit – it’s my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I’ve seen you cry, I’ve seen you smile.
I’ve watched you sleeping for a while.
I’d be the father of your child.
I’d spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We’ve had our doubts but now we’re fine,
And I love you, I swear that’s true.
I cannot live without you.
Chorus (2x)
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I’m asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I’m kneeling at your feet.
Chorus (2x)
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I’m so hollow, baby, I’m so hollow.
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so hollow.
Alfred Schnittke (1934 – 1998) is one of the greatest Russian composers.
Many of his music creations were forbidden by Soviet regime.
In spite of it he was known in all the music world.
He is author of 9 Symphonies, 18 concerts for Violin, Piano, Cello and other instruments.
He wrote Choral and Chamber music and soundtracks to 9 movies.
This movie Skazka Stranstviy (The Story of the Voyages), directed by Alexander Mitta in 1982 is my favorite movie with music of Alfred Schnittke.
He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn’t play for the money he wins
He doesn’t play for respect
He deals the crads to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden loaw of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that’s not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that’s not the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
You’d maybe think there’s something wrong
I’m not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that’s not the shape of my heart

Songwriters: John Bettis, Albert Louis Hammond
I wanna call the stars
Down from the sky
I wanna live a day
That never dies
I wanna change the world
Only for you
All the impossible
I wanna do
I wanna hold you close
Under the rain
I wanna kiss your smile
And feel the pain
I know what’s beautiful
Looking at you
In a world of lies
You are the truth
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I’ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I’m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
I wanna make you see
Just what I was
Show you the loneliness
And what it does
You walked into my life
To stop my tears
Everything’s easy now
I have you here
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I’ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I’m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
In a world without you
I would always hunger
All I need is your love to make me stronger
And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I’ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I’m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me
