Sven Humm - Stay Withe Me [Official Lyrics],
Verse I:
You and me, are meant to be. To live a life in harmony.
Reality as we both see, changed things round quite easily.
Paying bills, we have less thrills, so much to do, so much to lose.
Having our son, was so much fun, these times long gone, wish I was strong.
Chorus:
Stay with me, you gotta stay with me, stay with me.
It's plain to see, you gotta stay with me, stay with me. X2
Verse II:
I know it hurts, it's hard to change, what I've become, in the pouring rain.
My love still burns, still with desire, appointments are – weakening the fire.
But I'll be there, no matter where, I am not leaving, your heart is bleeding.
You're always true, I'm stuck* with you, rising my guards, cuz it's so hard.
Chorus:
Stay with me, you gotta stay with me, stay with me.
It's plain to see, you gotta stay with me, stay with me. X2
Verse III:
Out on the road, it's getting late, on the way home, not with my mates.
When I arrived, you were asleep, problems still there, more than knee-deep.
But the our son, my favorite one, starts to weep, don't wanna sleep.
I'm quick to start, but in my heart, weight is so heavy, affecting me.
Chorus:
Stay with me, you gotta stay with me, stay with me.
It's plain to see, you gotta stay with me, stay with me. X2

Sven Humm -- "Things One Shouldn't Know" [Official Lyrics]
Verse I:
I still remember the darkest hour,
you came along and gave me power.
You're more than a good friend to me,
saved my life and kept up my dreams.
After months we still stay in touch, for all of that I thank you so much.
We separated, I changed my mind, I regonized that I was blind.
Chorus:
In the darkest hour, you gave me power (x2).
Verse II:
I went away in times of pain, started smiling when I heard your name.
There's a hole inside my heart, seems like I wasn't that smart.
A hidden sadness going round, I showed you the best in town.
Then came up months where we lived so slow, just can't believe I let you go.
Chorus:
In the darkest hour, you gave me power (x2).
Verse III:
You held my hand when I wanted to die, then I collapsed and started to cry.
No one's ever been that close to me, problems killing, yeah they're killing me.
There have been things one shouldn't know, I've told you all, I feel comfortable.
What I'm saying comes from my soul, don't let me go, I need you so.
Chorus:
In the darkest hour, you gave me power (x2).

How It Should Be [Official Lyrics]:
Verse:
Sitting- there on a - couch
With you - in front - of me
Dreaming– and luck's by - my side
A fire – right in front – of us
Enjoying– Everything - without words
Thinking– what I left – behind
Happyness– and nothing else – matters
A bottle – of wine on – the table
The moment – time doesn't – elapse
Harmony– that's how it should – be
Slow– Slower, don't watch me – go
Bridge:
Oh– I never thought- that this could be-
And makes me smile – so happily
You're everything to me I know
I also hope, that you think so x2

Melanie [Official Lyrics]:
Verse I:
Melanie, Oh, Melanie, someone that I used to see,
You walked right in, destroyed my dreams,
weren't nice, as it seemed
Melanie, Oh, Melanie, you little bitch I didn't see.
Made me wait, don't disagree, didn't start a family.
Chorus:
It bloody sucked, quite easily,
There's no room for sympathy
Pre-Chorus:
Melanie, Oh, Melanie
Verse II:
Melanie, Oh, Melanie, a picture in the gallery,
So different than it meant to be, frustrating me so awfully
Melanie, Oh, Melanie, a little girl, no lucid dream
You put me there, a waiting scene, didn't have no discipline.
Chorus:
It bloody sucked, quite easily,
There's no room for sympathy

Sven Humm - Enceladus [Official Lyrics]:
Verse I:
Travelling to Enceladus
and no one seems to care.
At first I was just curious
but no one has been there.
I grabbed all my belongings
A plan I had to share.
Constructed myself a spaceship
They said, i was insane.
Chorus:
Uuh, what a long way to go
Uuh, on earth it starts to snow
Uuh, I am ageing you know,
Uuh but I knew that before.
Verse II:
So I got buried in my basement
And figured a plan.
Got to know about the athmosphere
and was scared of the methane.
As I sat down on the windowsill,
the distance I compared.
So I found out how far it was
but needed to be there.
Chorus:
Uuh, what a long way to go
Uuh, on earth it starts to snow
Uuh, I am ageing you know,
Uuh but I knew that before.
Verse III:
When I felt Saturn's gravity
and finally approached,
my muscles felt so weak (again),
still sitting in this hose.
So I went down on the surface,
completely overwhelmed,
creatures floating everywhere -
the lay of the land.

Forest

Verse I (Work in Progress):
I've been sittin top of all those hills
I'm never again searching for thrills
I feel satisfied and I'm also free
looking at the valley I can see
Sittin in front of a villa
The city to my feet
Distance and Miles
So Peacefully
Something did happen that I cant describe
Reaching a point others cant reach
Driving through forests where I've been for times
It's not the same- heading for range
Everything's changed to strange-
Seems like I'm not me anymore
Chorus (Work in progress):
Changes have been made
no one went away but did
Existing in the wrong way
discovering myself by new
Verse II (Work in progress):
I am ev'rywhere though it feels like home
travelling around- inventing sound
Challenges and progression as a „like-it“
Around and away without result
Deep inside my brain decisions have been made
Turning around and leaving behind
Heading fast to Venlo and the same day back
Exploring sides I never thought of
Grilling suntanned hapily at our lake
But once again, I'm not me anymore
Chorus (Work in progress):
Changes have been made
no one went away but did
Existing in the wrong way
discovering myself by new

Great White North [Official Lyrics]:
Verse I:
So he left the house, then he took a plane
They said he must been insane.
But he didn't care, it was no mood
planned it for long, and he felt good.
Gone in a flash as he flipped the keys.
Not crying, didn't fall to his knees.
It was more than right, he said to himself,
As he placed the suitcase on the shelf.
His mind was racing, time elapsing
He fell asleep, I forgot to mention.
All his friends saw it coming,
but none of them stopped him from running.
So hours later, as the plane landed,
he didn't feel as if he was stranded.
No, to him it was a relief
He has his own beliefs.
Under pressure no more, his headaches were gone,
Smiling so bright as he sung his song:
Chorus:
„ Canada, I made it, my past was so frustrating,
Now I'm here, everything is fine, I thought I'd lose my mind“.

Verse I:
It was summer and the sun was shining bright
We were young and everything was alright.
But then I saw her and wanted her to be there.
We were back in concert and everyone enjoyed.
I never thought of cheating on her
And finally she did so.
(Chorus)
Verse II:
When she returned I gave her a second chance
He as a pal and she as my lover.
The summer had gone and things got also tight.
I was called in the middle of the night.
Back in dreams I enjoyed every song
But you interrupted me as you came along.
It could have been so nice but reality was there
Everyone clapped but in the end I don't care.
(Chorus)
Verse III:
And so I moved on 'cuz everything was gone.
The emptiness was calling and lasted also long.
Then she disappeared for the sake of god.
something died that has been brought.

Official Lyrics for What Goes Around Comes Back Around:
Verse I:
In these times where you live so slow,
no one knows where they got to go,
many others tend to show,
issues i don't want to know.
TV's airing casting shows,
makes me think „I've been here before“.
Restless celebs on a jungle show,
models on the screen next door.
Chorus:
What goes around comes back around x2
Verse II:
Yellow press adds an afterglow,
I can't stand this stuff no more.
Bad music from someone's phone,
little hipster please leave me alone.
Let it go, moving somewhere else,
Needing someone who understands.
Sipping whiskey with my best friends,
surely no one recommends.
Chorus:
What goes around comes back around x2
Verse III:
Youngsters drinking beer pop at a bar,
- too young and they look bizarre.
Johnny, how'd it come so far?
Times are changing, yes they are.
All I do is to resist,
don't cry for what I've missed.
Hope for better days to come,
Maybe it has already begun....
Chorus:
What goes around comes back around x2

Sven Humm - When It Rains [Official Lyrics]:
Verse I:
When it rains,
Water slowly
Tripping down my window
Should I leave
Going on all alone
Bridge:
Oh, when it rains x 2
Verse II:
Warm summerdays
washed away like love from me
is this really happening
luck's not by my side again
Bridge:
Oh, when it rains x 2
Verse III:
Days have turned now
she never returned to me
lying there unconsciously
Bridge:
Oh, when it rains x 2
Verse IV:
Bolts right over my head
No one's saving me
Thinking bout surpassed time
Emptiness inside of me
Bridge:
Oh, when it rains x 2

Verse:
Do you feel asleep
in your perfect world
wearing all of the clothes
you've just seen on tv
your cellphone is the latest one
and the music is bangin'
drikin' booze at all the time
with your friends around hangin'
Verse:
everything's a dream
nothing seems to be real
I'll always be revealing
i don't know 'bout your feelings
i won't last forever
but i fight till the end
things to recommend
died years ago
i don't need no light
i'm a child of the night

Cling On It
05:51
|
|||
Verse I:
It still feels like it was yesterday
You stepped into my life, feels like a fantasy,
Others wondered „How could that be?“
You were my cure, you were my remedy.
I always thought that you would comfort me.
Pinched myself, man what a crazy dream.
Chorus:
Cling on it, stay strong.
It might be hard to get there
though you have to carry on.
Hold onto and stay strong.
It's all worth fighting,
the worst is now gone.
Verse II:
Your laugh, your smile felt like the safest shore.
I've been working nightly and you've been a wh***.
You've always been the one, the girl I adore.
And I will stick with you and that's for sure.
Reality shifted, weighs I lifted, progress – come on!
I guess that's the price I had to pay – for us...
Chorus:
Cling on it, stay strong.
It might be hard to get there
though you have to carry on.
Hold onto and stay strong.
It's all worth fighting,
the worst is now gone.
Verse III:
Once was so scared of becoming my dad,
but memories saved me – experience I had.
I'm not a saint and I'm not the sinner.
folks never asked me but I'm still a beginner.
What you did has been forgiven,
my family is the force which got me driven.
Yeah Yeah
Chorus:
Cling on it, stay strong.
It might be hard to get there
though you have to carry on.
Hold onto and stay strong.
It's all worth fighting,
the worst is now gone.

Sven Humm – Tragedy [Official Lyrics]:
Verse I:
It's such a tragedy,
You always were so close to me,
It's such a tragedy,
You're rather in my family.
Verse II:
You were the one for me,
to share my thoughts and beeing free,
the love you gave to me,
was more than it was supposed to be.
Verse III:
As I looked into your eyes,
I saw things that I can't disguise,
I tried to reach for you,
but then you went away that's true.
Pre-Verse:
Verse IV:
Days and months surpassed so slow,
since you left me there out alone,
I wish you luck in time,
because I couldn't make you mine.

Verse I:
Why did you mess with the stars
Is there any chance how to make it?
Why did you mess with the stars
You're falling down below my feet
Chorus:
Why do you look back into your past?
The future's right here, you just need to grasp.
Verse II:
Why did you mess with the stars
Have you ever thought that you could fall apart
Why did you mess with the stars
Someday your luck's gonna break down
Chorus:
Why do you look back into your past?
The future's right here, you just need to grasp.
Verse III:
What are your aims you look for?
It was obvious that you have none (you don't have one, before)
Someone's crossing the line
You're outraged but not able to handle
Chorus:
Why do you look back into your past?
The future's right here, you just need to grasp.
Verse IV:
Gentleman – you call yourself one
But mistakes are wrecking your fortress
spended two years as a mess
But still you're not conscious what to dooo (low voice)
Chorus:
Why do you look back into your past?
The future's right here, you just need to grasp.
Verse V:
Helping each one of your friends
You've given so much but you're failing
Why did you mess with the stars
Cause you are one that doesn't deserve it

I Got No Sleep Today [Official Lyrics]:
Verse 1:
I got no sleep today, I'm falling, yes i sway
I'm turning in thes heets, I'm falling ill from disease.
Look who I lost today, 'cause of my personal way.
Got stolen from my needs, I'm beggin', beggin' please.
She went away-decay, thoughts running through my brain.
What happened to my soul, can't believe I let her go
Chorus:
Did I ever mention?All of the tension?
All these little problems, on our souls.
Verse 2:
My boo went out the door, of course I miss her so.
Spent so much time together, now she is gone forever.
Sweeping mess up to my feet, fragments – no good friends in deed *
What have I done to her, she treats me like a mass-murderer.
I'm drenched up all in rain, anyone, can you feel the pain?
I don't want to cry,I'm not a sissy-guy!
Chorus:
Did I ever mention?All of the tension?
All these little problems, on our souls.

Sven Humm Karlstein Am Main, Germany
svenhumm.com/band/
To summarize who Sven Humm is gets harder day by day. He
surely is a musical microcosm to himself,
expanding consecutively, making it harder to define – as a passionate songwriter,
a soulful guitarist and as a remarkably honest and intense singer.
He is now more than ready to hit the floor and to touch your soul.
