When Leaves Get Colored

(T. Kejklíček, 11-1999)

THE LUSATIAN GRASS 2001

 

1. When leaves get color In the Lusatian Mountains
It's time I've gotta roam these days
When leaves get color In the Lusatian Mountains
Don't try to find me any way

CH: I want to stay these days alone
I can feel the blues to the bone
Don't look for me oh honey
Ya can't know where I'm gone

2. When leaves get color In the Lusatian Mountains
It's time to think about my life
When leaves get color In the Lusatian Mountains
It's time for my soul to revive

CH: I want to stay these days alone
I can feel the blues to the bone
Don't look for me oh honey
I'll soon be back at home

Just a Dream

(V.Novák, T.Kejklíček, 26.7.2000)

THE LUSATIAN GRASS 2001

 

CH: I give up myself to my dreams
in which I'm forever with you
and we are dancing one close to the other
I know, no more the dreams will come true

1. once we met in our little town's bar
there was cold and rainy out there
we were drinking and talking and dancing
then you went away I don't know where

2. a few times they played there one sweet song
I felt all its words in my heart
I was so happy that I could be with you
I wished to be never apart

CH:

3. your face was shining so bright dear
your smile forever I'll see
but I couldn't say who you were thinking
of somebody else or of me

4. when they played out the last tone of that song
I knew that today would repeat
it would repeat again and again dear
but it always would be just a dream

CH:

It Looks Like Rain

(T. Kejklíček)

THE LUSATIAN GRASS 2001

 

1. Standin' on the corner of the street
brand new shoes on his feet
Lord, Lord, it looks like rain
standin' on the corner of the street
brand new shoes on his feet
Lord, Lord, she'll come no more
she's got another man

2. waitin' for his baby, hopin' on
he can't believe that she is gone….

3. thinkin' about her nice blue eyes
she's so sweet 'n' she's so nice….

4. never mind that she's gone away
tomorrow'll be a brand new day
Lord, Lord, there won't be rain
never mind that she's gone away
tomorrow'll be a brand new day
Lord, Lord, don't be alone
boy, love another gal

Hallelujah, Shout and Pray

(T.Kejklíček, 7-2000)

1. See the raindrops, they are teardrops of our God today
his Son was suffering on that cross He washed our sins away
but God is crying, watching all the sins here down below
he loves us so He sent his Son to save our troubled souls

CH: be ready brother, ready sister, our Lord will come again
it will be soon on the judgment day, hallelujah shout and pray

2. come together to shout His praises sing and pray to Lord
on one day we know He`ll welcome all of us at the Throne
we will shout and praise His glory with the angel band
then we can stay in Lord`s bright presence in His glory land

CH:

3. trust in Jesus, he`s the Saviour He is Lord of Lords
on the other shore in Heaven He prepares our homes
our God is rightess, full of grace and he is full of love
he wants to welcome all of us in Heaven up above

Dear, Oh, Dear

1. Dear, oh, dear, you say you're leavin'
and we have to part
there's another man you're lovin'
I am put aside

CH: I only wish to hear some words
to soothe my achin' heart
my emotions've been so pure
I love you from the start

2. dear, oh, dear, just tell me truth
what changed your heart and mind
from now on I know my heart is
no more satisfied

CH:

3. dear, oh, dear, it ain't no help
the words we can be friends
thinkin' about it I can feel that
I ain't got no chance

CH:

I Ain´t Gonna Swallow the Bait

1. Oh, days are long And nights go slow
And I hard try To be strong/
2. In the still of the night And with you on my mind
I recall those memories Of your smile

CH: You`re so young and I am growing old each night and day
I can`t believe you fell in love with me
You`re so young and I can feel that all your love is true
You took my heart I`m all in love with you

3. Your letters say Although you`re far away
You think of me each moment Of your day

4. I try, I try To get you off my mind
don`t wanna be a trouble Of your life

I Was Blind

(K.Stránská, T.Kejklíček, 6-2000)

THE LUSATIAN GRASS 2001

 

1. When I first met you my darling
I wished to get out of your sight
oh, but your eyes they tied me to you dear
they would have warned me but I was blind

CH: and your blue eyes are just a memory
but every evening I can hear
the strange sound coming from the wood here
and it reminds me you're somewhere near

2. and there came days when you stopped talking
I noted that your face got changed
when you would come home our dog was howling
now I can say you became strange

CH:

3. your look turned blank and shy my darling
and something happened in your mind
you left our home you're gone away dear
oh, and I guess that you ain't far

CH:

This Ole Mountain Road

(T.Kejklíček, 2000)

THE LUSATIAN GRASS 2000

 

CH: This ole mountain road
among the trees up in the hills
I`d like to know all the things remembered
by this ole mountain road

1. for a long time I haven`t been wandering
through the woods I knew so well
now I`ve just returned to see all places
of my childhood days
when I was roaming in the hills
I found a mountain road
an ole mountain road
I didn`t know about before

CH:

2. I walked down the road and thought about
the people here used to go
about their lifes, about their fates
many years ago
I can hear their words and see their faces
trembling in the air
I can feel those stories
just left here everywhere

CH:

3. I know times are changing there`s no doubt
and ages`re passing by
and the road is hidden in the bush
for a long time without use
and lots of people in the past
were going down, it`s clear
and everyone left something
that`s forever lasting here

You´re Gone

(T.Kejklíček)

THE LUSATIAN GRASS 2000

 

1. I am askin' myself
I am askin' myself
for what you're gone and took your things with you
I am feelin' all alone
maybe it's fault of my own
that you're gone and took your things with you

CH: the tears in my eyes
and beautiful memories
remain here, I know right now
it was only short dream
I am feelin' all alone
maybe it's fault of my own
that you're gone and took your things with you

2. you could leave a message here
to make it all clear to me
for what you're gone and took your things with you
all now I have to do
is to worry my heart because of you
that you're gone and took your things with you

CH: the tears in my eyes
and beautiful memories
remain here, I know right now
it was only short dream
all now I have to do
is to worry my heart because of you
that you're gone and took your things with you
