River Phoenix Songtext
von Morten Abel

Awake when the city sleeps
This hotel is dangerous
A poor term doing favour for sailors
These walls are paper thin
Next door there′s a bakery
I can go get coffee
But it wouldn't hurt me
If I only today
I mean, only today
Went first for Bloody Mary

Electroshocked in the sun
You could fry an egg on the pavement
It might just be too hot for me
Never been to Paris
But what a great name to put on a girl

Ave of the Phoenix
What a great name to put on a boy
Ave of the Phoenix
What a great name to put on a boy


Nobody owns, nobody owns the truth
And the stars are dreaming
And the stars are dreaming
Nobody owns the truth
All the grace of Heaven greets you
All the gates will open for you

Ave of the Phoenix
What a great name to put on a boy

Will you keep me company, stranger?
If you do, I′ll feel a lot better
'Cause I'm lost and I′m lonely
I′ve never been to Paris
But what a great name to put on a girl

Ave of the Phoenix
What a great name to put on a boy
Ave of the Phoenix
What a great name to put on a boy

Nobody owns, nobody owns the truth
And the stars are dreaming
And the stars are dreaming
Nobody owns the truth
And the stars are dreaming
And the stars are dreaming
Nobody owns the truth


All the grace of Heaven greets you
All the grace of Heaven greets you
All the gates will open for you
All the grace of Heaven greets you
All the gates will open for you

Turn it up
Everybody's cool with the new rules
