XIII Death

Are you afraid of me, my friend,
of someone who has always sent
you nothing more than purest life,
has been your brother, son and wife?

I see it deep down in your eyes,
you dont believe a word of mine.
But cant you see eternal truce shine
through your fears within your cries?

You fear me, for I mean the end.
„The end of what? I ask, my friend.
„The end of life!, and that is true.
But life, you know, is always new.

And thats the answere, cant you see?
For without me, it wouldnt be.

 

Dreams

I was dreaming of you, my dear.
I could feel your soul, lost in fear.
So I sent you a knight on a white horse,
to fight the black and devil force.

Were you dreaming of me, my love?
Flying high above
it all,
afraid to fall.
I hear your call.
Your call...
was a cry,
So afraid to fly.

 

The Fool

I am free and I am caught.
I'm the teacher who's taught.

I am here and I am there.
I am no- and everywhere.

There's no goal and there's no border.
There's no law and there's no order.

There is nothing, there's just me.
I'm the blind man who can see.

 

The Fool Part Two

He's the fool you write about
who never stops to think his thought,
but never starts to do at all.
He is to fly and though to fall.

He's as the gambler as the game.
He's different, but he's all the same.
He's hard to find but hard to miss.
It is the fool you're talking with.

 

Twinkle (Part 1)

Let me take your hand
one last time,
take you in my arms.

Let us enjoy
this last night,
let us search our star.

Incredible far away
in time and space
but it'll be our bridge
over time and space at all.

How can we find it?
...you may ask.
Well, just watch,
it's gonna twinkle,
gonna twinkle,
twinkle...

 

Twinkle (Part 2)

Lonely night.
Just me
and the stars,
million and millions of stars,
and one of them,
it                                     twinkles,
yes, it twinkles.

Lovely night,
just me
with a smile,
'cause I know,
yes I know,
it was you
who                                    twinkled.

 

Claudia

C an you see the
L ight in my eyes
A nd tell me, can you really
U nderstand why I
D o all the things
I do? Believe me, it is
A ll just You.

 

Elisabeth

E verything could be so right
L ove and fire is all
I nside your heart, saw it
S hining through your eyes.
A ll seems perfekt, but deep
B eneath your thousand masks is an
E ndless river filled with
T ears, cried as your
H eart lost all it's faith.

 

Between us

Between us, there's nothing
but distance and love.

With love, distance
is nothing.

Between us, there's nothing
but love.

 

Long Way

Standing in front of you,
eye to eye,
I don't know, what to do,
what to say.
You seem to be just in my reach,
but there's one thing life taught
me well.

It's a long way to the sun,
and all the way, you'll burn,
no matter, how fast you run.
It's a long way, but I won't turn.

 

Rainy night

Walking slowly through the rain.
Deeply caught within my pain.
Lost completely my defences.
Overfilled by all my senses.

Still feel your body close to mine.
Your voice, it told me you were fine.
But I could clearly feel your pain
as I can feel this cold, wet rain.

 

Tomorrows Girl

Tomorrow, man, Ill meet your wife,
someone I wait for my whole life.
She will be mine till yesterday
and stay until today, hurray!

 

Time to leave

Well, it is time to say good-bye,
to leave this place called yesterday.
This worn-out life, it has to die.
Now, I'll have to find my way.

I cannot cry, but I wont dance.
It's always sad to go away.
I know it well, I had my chance.
Now, I'll do it my own way.

I see those tears inside of you.
I'm helpless, don't know what to say.
But I can feel, you know it's true:
You have to go your own sweet way.

 

Free Bird

Im not a cage.
Im not caged.

I am free for you
to be free for me.

 

While she slept

I watched her sleeping,
felt her warm breath on my skin,
raising her breasts, let them fall down
again
while running out of her
half opened mouth,
passing her lips
I never kissed.

I watched her sleeping,
watched her life passing
with every breath,
watched my fear growing
with every breath,
my fear to lose her,
to lose what I never owned.
I watched her sleeping
away.

 

Blowing

I laughed because
your dress was blown
up by the wind.
You seemed to be angry,
but I saw that
little smile, almost hidden....

I'm almost crying becourse
you're blowing away
like the wind.
You seemed to be faithful,
but I saw that
little tear, almost cried...

 

Waiting

Watching you
disappear
down, down, down
that stairs.

Still feeling
your hands in mine,
talking without words,
so warm, warm, warm
and gentle.

You won't turn,
you won't come back,
I know, know, know
you so well.

But I can't help
keep sitting here,
with tears in my eyes
and wait,
wait
w
a
i
t
.
 

 

Caught between

If this is tomorrow
I'd return to yesterday.
If this is my future,
I'd rather like to stay.
If this is your last word,
I'd wish to be deaf.
If this is what you think,
I fear, I have to leave.

If this was all your fire,
my heart will stay cold.
If this was all youth,
I'd love to be old.
If this is the truce,
my life should be a lie.
If this was your last smile,
I'd lay down and cry.

But

If there's more fire,
I'd kindly burn for you.
If this was a lie,
I'd always be true.
If you laugh one more time,
I'd shine through your night.
If you give me the chance,
I'd stand up and fight.

 

All between

It can be all,
it can be nothing,
it can be everything between.
It can be love,
it can be hate,
it can be visibly unseen.
It can be you,
it can be me,
it can be caught,
it can be free,
it can be everything you see,
for it can BE, yes, it can be.

And all there is
is not enough
but more than there has ever been.
And all you feel
is more than love,
but not as pure as love can be.
For all you are
is all I am
is life,
is death,
is
all
between.

 

Answer to the love thief

I would await you in the heart of night,
leave all my mind doors  open wide
and give my heart in your hand for free...
But would you take it, or would you flee
far through the shadows of your fear,
all left behind, a single tear
of silver lying by my side?

Would you leave me waking up between
the cold and untouched sheets
of loneliness? Or has the seed
of love at last more value than  the scene
of shadows, hunting through the light?
I'm well aware of  this old might
that darkness casts upon her child,
 the wish to be just free and wild...

So, play your game, I play my role.
We'll both be winners at the end.
I know, you cannot steal my soul
But I can lay it in your hand.
