Quotes:

Micah: [referring to his first sight of Samarra] Nahreeb, you said that everything has its price.::Nahreeb: She is not for a follower of Jehovah!::Micah: I mean to have her one way or the other!

Micah: Asham. I've drunk deep of every wine from here to Petra, and I've had my full share of women. Yet I'm behaving like a beardless boy panting for the first forbidden fruit that he sees. A priestess who worships a painted graven image! But she's in my blood!

Carmish: You're a stranger in Damascus. I can tell by your beard. And what each stranger hungers to see first is the Tinted Wall. Only a stone's throw away, the Tinted Wall! Let Carmish take you, for as Carmish is known to say, grab hold of the day - who knows if the night will ever come?

Yasmin: I do not care where I've been. I only care where I am.

Nahreeb: I'll break his body and what he calls his soul!

Nahreeb: Damacus has dealt generously with you. Even your slave has a slave.

Ruth: A woman always knows more than her man thinks.

Micah: Sometimes, Asham, a man must make a little trouble.

Samarra: The women in the wheel are the pick of the market. Did you not notice how superb were the haunches of the Grecian woman and how the lips of the Egyptian parted when she looked at any man?

Samarra: A high priestess cries the day she is born and never again in her lifetime.

Words and Music: Mike Connell
Someone tells me somethin' --
Well I'm prepared to listen.
Nothin's goin' on, nothin's goin' on.
Standing next to no one,
Well that was my intention.
Nothin's goin' on, nothin's goin' on.
But then you're back and I'm guessing it's not so bad at all.
And I've been standing slackjawed since you were here.
Yeah, I've been standing slackjawed.
Something says this may be the strangest light I'll mention --
Someone left you on, someone left you on.
Saying next to nothing -- the words were my invention.
Someone left you on, someone left you on.
And now you're here and I'm thinking it's not so bad at all.
And I've been standing slackjawed since you were here.

Mir göh nümm viu zäme furt
meischtens geit sie allei
u mängisch chunnt sie de o ersch
gäge Morge wider hei
sie seit sie göng mit äre Fründin
nume chli gah si
u I bruche kei Angscht z`ha
wöu meh sigi da nid derbi
s`miech mir ja o nid viu us ,
we ni wüssti dass s`so wär
nume ihre z`glaube
das faut mir langsam schwär
Sie lügt
u I weiss nid warum ,
we sie seit s`sig e so e so
de weiss ig s`isch grad angersrum
sie lügt
u de macht si`s no schlächt
vilech meint sie I sig blöd
uvilech het sie ja recht
Lüge tuesch doch nume
we öppis nid stimmt
schüss weiss es doch jede
das Lgar nüt bringt
I has doch scho lang vernoh
dass sie mit Giele furt geit
u I weis nid wiso
dass sie nid d`Wahrheit seit
Sie lügt ...

I wait till everyone's asleep

Estoy, rodeado de soledad
Como una vela en el viento
Que observa morir poco a poco su luz
Oy veo tu foto en mi buro
Y rezo por que la distancia no podra
Borrarte mi recuerdo por que yo aun
Tengo tu aroma
(Coro)
No no puedo ya vivir (solo sin tu amor)
Asi no puedo mas, no aguanto esta soledad
No no puedo ya existir, solo sin tu amor
No vivo ya, sin ti no vivo ya, simplemente no puedo
Oy ya no soporto el dolor, ya nada tiene sentido
Mi alma quedo atrapada en tu piel
Hasta he pensado en renunciar
Y sellar mi vida
Pues no quiero seguir sin tu ternura
Sin tus ojos sin tus besos
Sin tu cuerpo
(coro)
No no puedo ya vivir, solo sin tu amor
Asi no puedo mas, no aguanto esta soledad
No no puedo existir,solo sin tu amor
No vivo ya, sin ti no vivo ya,
Simplemente no puedo.
(guitarra)
UHh. solo solo,
No no puedo ya vivir, (solo sin tu amor)
Asi no puedo mas, no aguanto esta soledad
No no puedo ya existir, solo sin tu amor
No vivo ya, sin ti no vivo ya,

This picture's wrong now paint in black
How did we get this bloody mess
This deep frustration drives me mad
Can't stand the beauty that I don't select
I'm gonna bury this today
It's gotta go that funny stuff

I'm glad you got it, yeah that's good
You wanna know how to thank me
And you probably should
You can take a minute to get me on the phone
Send a certified letter stamp it and it's gone
But if you wanna do it right
You can take all night
To say I like it
... somehow I knew
That you'd appreciate the gesture
And I bet you do
You can pick out something from the jewelry store
Have a dozen red roses waiting at my door
But if you wanna do it right
You can take all night
To say I like it
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
You can do this how you like
But no, no, no, no, no, no
I would rather do it right
7 money bunny, she don't want nothing
But your heart, soul
Better go, tell me what you're waiting for
[Guitar solo]
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
You can do this so polite, yeah
But no, no, no, no, no, no
I would rather do it right
All I'm asking is keep it to yourself
If I really need you happy come and ring my bell
But if you wanna do it right
You can take all night
To say I like it
If you wanna do it right
You can take all night

Jamie loves him but she doesn't want to leave this place today
She acts like everything's okay
B-Money, he could get the hunnies
But he chases them all away
And he blushes when they say his name
Did you really think it'd last for good?
Just jump ship like you would
Did you really think it'd last for good?
And every night, when he cries
He lies awake to realize
He's nothing without you
And though your picture still remains
Lying in that broken frame
He's nothing without you.
Terry's good at school but it drove him crazy
He dropped out because he's lazy
Now he works the night shift all alone
Sarah had a man but she lost him
To her best friend double crossin'
Now she knows what it's like to be alone
And did you really think it'd last for good?
Just jump ship like you would
Did you really think it'd last for good?
And every night, when he cries
He lies awake to realize
He's nothing without you
And though your picture still remains
Lying in that broken frame
He's nothing without you
He's nothing
He's nothing
He's nothing without you
Whoa, whoa
And every night, when he cries
He lies awake to realize
He's nothing without you
And though your picture still remains
Lying in that broken frame
He's nothing without you
And did you really think it'd last for good?
Just jump ship like you would
Did you really think it'd last for good?
Whoa, whoa
And did you really think it'd last for good?
Just jump ship like you would
Did you really think it'd last for good?
