that is what I could hear and write (with some help). what do you think?
(I think this is correct now)

can you tell me where it leaves/leads when it’s neverending
can you tell me where to go when no-one’s home
and I know, you know it hurts, it hurts to be alone
you’re on, you’re on
on a one-way train going down, going down
can you tell me what to say when there’s no-one listening
can you show me what to do when all is done
I know, you know it hurts, it hurts to be alone
the plan has gone wrong like a runaway train going down
(going down down down going down going down down down)
yes, I know you know it hurts, it hurts to be alone
you’re on, you’re on your own
on a one-way train going down
(going down down down going down down down)
it hurts to be alone
going down

I think this line
“all/like* a runaway train going down, going down”

Is
“ON a runaway...”

i_jera said on October 22, 2002 14:46:

ah, yes. ON. thanks, Judith!

Can you tell me where it leaves
When it’s never ending
Can you tell me where to go
When no-one’s home

And I know
You know
It hurts
It hurts to be alone
You’re on
You’re on
On a one-way train going down

Can you tell me what to say
When there’s no-one listening
Can you show me what to do
When all is done

Oooooh I know
You know
It hurts
It hurts to be alone
The plan
Has gone wrong
Like a runaway train going down

Oh, going down down down
Going down…

Yes I know
You know
It hurts
It hurts to be alone
You’re on
You’re on your own
On a one way train going down
Going down down down down
Going down…

It hurts to be alone

Every Day
(missing _____ gaps)

Every day I see him comming
every day he walks on by
life used to be so plain and simple
before he came into my life
every night I keep on dreaming
every night I take him home
we always go to bed together
I always wake up all alone

[Chorus]
Ooh it’s strage, so strange
what he is doing to me
ooh it’s strange, it’s so strange
did this ever happen to you
the way it has happened to me
the way just happened to me

every day outside my window
always ________ (when?) it´s close to eight
I wish he stayed a little longer
but his bus is never late
every night we dance so slowly
i play the music he adores
_______________
there we are talking ?
all important things for sure

[Chorus]

You all work really fast :D

i_jera said on October 22, 2002 15:02:

I’m now downloading Every Day, so after a while (I hope) I’ll be able to hear it and try to figure out...

Jud (moderator) said on October 22, 2002 15:03:

again, team work RULEZ!!!! :DDD

Santi said on October 22, 2002 15:09:

“minutes close to eight”???? I’m really bad in this, so forgive me, surely I’m wrong :DDDD

ngriffioen said on October 22, 2002 15:32:

Hmm... and the lyrix of Every day (I have a bad connection, so I could be wrong here and there...)

Every day

Every day I see him coming
Every day he walks on by
Life used to be so plain and simple
Before he came into my life

Every night I keep on dreaming
Every night I take him home
We always go to bed together
I always wake up all alone

Chorus:
Oh it’s strange, so strange
What he’s doing to me
Oh it’s strange so strange
Did this ever happen to you
The way it has happened to me
The way it just happened to me

Every day outside my window
Always minutes close to eight
I wish he stayed a little longer
But his bus is never late

Every night we’re dancing slowly
I play the music he adores
Like Sinatra then we’re talking
All important things for sure

Chorus:
Oh it’s strange so strange
What he’s doing to me
Oh it’s strange so strange
Did this ever happen to you
The way it has happened to me
The way it just happened to me

Oh it’s strange so strange
What he’s doing to me
Oh so strange real strange
Did this ever happen to you
The way it has happened to me
The way it just happened to me

It hurts could also start with:

Can you tell me where it leads
when it’s neverending?

Do you agree? That seems to fit into the text... but if I listen to it, it sounds like leaves...

Vixzter said on October 22, 2002 21:42:

Okies my version of ’It Hurts’ :

Can you tell me where it leads when its neverending
Can you tell me where to go when no ones home

And I know, You know
It hurts
It hurts to be alone
You’re on your own
On a one way train going down

Can you tell me what to say when theres no one listening
Can you show me what to do when all is done

I know, you know
It hurts
Its hurts to be alone
The plan has gone wrong
Like a runaway train going down

going down down down
going down
going down down

etc etc ;)

having trouble with leads or leaves (not sure which)

and is it one way train or runaway train (or both)

daniel_alv said on October 22, 2002 22:58:

It hurts is great....

I think that every day sounds like a marie song..... it sounds like a marie solo song just translated to english... what do you think?

felicity-brown said on October 22, 2002 23:05:

LOL How many should we post here? :) The one way/runaway train... hmmm, think it might be a ’one way’ going down (never coming back lol) We’ll have to wait for the lyrics!

Can you tell me where it leads, when it’s never-ending
Can you tell me where to go, when no-one’s home

And I know, you know
It hurts, it hurts to be alone
you’re on your own
on a one way train going down

Can you tell me what to say, when there’s no-one listening
Can you show me what to do, when all is done

Ooh, I know, you know
It hurts, it hurts to be alone
the plan has gone wrong, like a runaway train going down

(Oh, going down, down, down, going down, going down, down, down ooh)

Yes, I know, you know
It hurts, it hurts to be alone
You’re all on your own
On a one-way train going down
(going down, going down, down, down, going down, going down, down, down)
Hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone
going down
Down, down, down, down...

felicity-brown said on October 22, 2002 23:10:

Lovely songs, btw. And thank you, Steven :)

pietROxette said on October 22, 2002 23:21:

I think it’s both one way and runaway train.

csarmi said on October 22, 2002 23:23:

Just what are you talking about?

felicity-brown said on October 22, 2002 23:42:

Yeah, it does sound like, but...

pietROxette said on October 23, 2002 11:52:

Csarmi, what do you think we are talking about in this topic???

Jud (moderator) said on October 23, 2002 12:41:

csarmi.. we are trying to figure out the lyrics for It Hurts + Every Day :DD

ngriffioen said on October 23, 2002 13:17:

Hmm, I was wondering about who wrote the songs as well. I tend to say that Per wrote “every day” > who else would come up with sentences like “We always go to bed together, I always wake up all alone” or “But his bus is never late” and “Like Sinatra then we’re talking”...

It hurts sounds more like a song Marie could have written, but this train popping up makes me believe it’s from Per’s hands too. The song reminds me of CBB or a DSR song... I love them a lot.

Starrox said on October 23, 2002 14:06:

Maybe Per wrote the lyrics and Marie the music... the music simply sounds too “Marie-like” IMHO - actually it somehow reminds me of Little girl!

csarmi said on October 23, 2002 15:54:

Ok, but what is “It hurts” and “Every day”?

Starrox said on October 23, 2002 16:18:

I’m not sure if your question was a joke or not, but anyway... you might want to check out the tracklist of “The Ballad Hits”/the EP sold with it - Every day and It hurts are two of the new songs on there...

pietROxette said on October 23, 2002 18:11:

Csarmi: are you playing a trick with us?
