I was born in a backstreet  Where people live a dirty life  Of course it was different most of the time  But it was not my fault  A life in hell  I saw it every morning  Dreams'n'desires  Can't hide myself anymore  I tried to live in heaven  But this dream did not come true  I tried to live in heaven  Next time I'll try to knock on this door again  I've been hunting  Day and night  Oh, I've been losing  Please, hold me tight  Why am I here now  And what can I do  You tell me you're sorry  You know it ain't true  I tried to live in heaven  But this dream did not come true  I tried to live in heaven  Next time I'll try to knock on this door again  You know what I mean  'Cause when you throw in the cards  Life goes on and on  You're on a trip to nowhere  You'd better reach for the stars  Life goes on and on and on and on again  'Cause when you throw in the cards  Life goes on and on  You're on a trip to nowhere  You'd better reach for the stars  Life goes on and on and on and on again  Now I'm taking my chances  Everyday, everynight  You know what I'm talking about, man  No more backstreet life  A life in hell  I saw it every morning  Dreams and desires  Don't hide myself anymore  I tried to live in heaven  But this dream did not come true  I tried to live in heaven  Next time I'll try to knock on this door again  You know what I mean  'Cause when you throw in the cards  Life goes on and on  You're on a trip to nowhere  You'd better reach for the stars  Life goes on and on and on and on again  'Cause when you throw in the cards  Life goes on and on  You're on a trip to nowhere  You'd better reach for the stars  Life goes on and on and on and on again  I made it out of this hell you know what I mean  I tried to live in heaven  But this dream did not come true  I tried to live in heaven  Next time I'll try to knock on this door again  You know what I mean  'Cause when you throw in the cards  Life goes on and on  You're on a trip to nowhere  You'd better reach for the stars  Life goes on and on and on and on again  'Cause when you throw in the cards  Life goes on and on  You're on a trip to nowhere  You'd better reach for the stars  Life goes on and on and on and on again  'Cause when you throw in the cards...
