"Make Me Smile"

Die Geschichte hinter dem Song:

"Make Me Smile!" Die von Sigi Baumüller zu einer Collage zusammengefassten Photos meinerseits belegen zumindest, dass es in meiner Bandgeschichte doch immer genügend zum Lachen, Schmunzeln ... gab. Andererseits belegt die Collage aber auch eindrücklich das Altern. Die Photos stammen aus dem Zeitabschnitt von 1972 bis 2004.  "Make Me Smile" ist ein Song über das älter werden  und über Beziehungen. Wahrscheinlich mein persönlichster Song auf dem Album.

Musiker bei "Make Me Smile":

Klaus Geisel: Leadvocals, Keyboard, Hammond, Piano, Drum Programming

Sonja Köhler: Chor

Karlheinz Hornung: Stromgitarre und Spanische Gitarre.

Songtext "Make Me Smile"

 

This is my sixth decade, too young to leave, for Rock´n Roll too late.

Maybe my stones are rolling slow.

My dance through white and black no longer fast as the devil, much more laid back. I sometimes change from high to low. 

 

Make me smile, when I´m dreaming bad. Smiling dreams, I never had.

It makes me sick to think about. Make me smile, when I´m in doubt.

Make me smile.

 

My points between the lines, darker for my soul, bigger for my eyes.

My keys tryin´ to get out of control.

These rhymes leaded by some signs, SONGS for some better times.

I´m taking roles to save my soul.

To deal is a really hard stuff, I have no partnership, I´m still in love.

The whole is much more than the parts.

Don´t know where I depend. To your love and to God´s own hand.

You´re deep inside to move my heart.

 

Make me smile, when I´m dreaming bad. Smiling dreams, I never had.

It makes me sick to think about. Make me smile, when I´m in doubt.

Make me smile while I grew less. Smiling at you, my very best.

When I´m leaning at your side, make me smile through day and night. 

Make me smile.


Make me smile at the end of times, make me feel, you´re in my rhymes.

When dust is running from my bones, make me smile, I lay alone. 

Make me smile.

 

Don´t check my inner system, don´t try to change my fade.

Don´t heal me, you´d better kill me. Just move your heaven´s gate.

Don´t close my written stories, don´t make me feel undone.

I wan´t you to make me sing my song.

 

I want you, I need you, I wnat you to make me smile, to make me smile.
