One of these mornings
One of these mornings
I’m going to wake up
just to find myself asleep
forever more
One of these mornings
my time will be up
and I guess noone up there
will check the score
How could I say
that it was unexpected,
when all my life I feared
this very day?
How will I bare
that once my life has ended,
I’ll never see your face
again…

Small Things

Small things
Small things
life’s bursting full of small things,
we take them all for granted
they happen every day…
The big things
those all important big things,
we wait for them like stranded
to take our breath away
Maybe I’ll build an Eiffel Tower!
Maybe I’ll win a Nobel Prize!
Maybe I won’t…
will that be my demise?
But small things,
lets not forget the small things
While we ignore the small things
life’s moments drift away...

Songs collecting dust
There’s times I wonder
how things would be…
if I’d turned a different corner
would I end up being me?
And there’s times I question
would I keep it all the same…
if I had a million choices
would this melody remain?
This is for the songs I haven’t written
they live in all the heartbeats that went past
in the dead of night I hear them whisper
This is for the songs collecting dust…

Love's here
03:00

Love’s here
Long before he came
I felt like tied with ball and chain
Noone left to blame
it’s hard to wash away this stain
But life will go on
like it had long before me
better not get off
this fast moving train
Things are going well
the same as what I thought back then
So I’m scared like hell
that life will punish me again
Awake in my bed
mourning imaginary losses
like the ticking clock
this doubt in my head…
Am I worth it that love’s here to stay?
Love’s here to stay…
Love’s here to stay…

Innocence
I wake within a dream
things aren’t what they seem
there’s something wrong
but I surrender
The places I have been,
faces I have seen
all seem to fade
I can’t remember
Like marbles made of glass
my memories they slip
right out of my hands
Travelling through time,
like different lives
all merged into one soul
Is it still me deep down inside?
The friends I used to have
so dear they were to me
their laughter echoes
in the distance
I still recall their names
and the times we used to have
Drifted apart
with no resistance
Like marbles made of glass
my memories they slip
right out of my hands
Travelling through time,
like different lives
all merged into one soul
Is it still me deep down inside
have I preserved my innocence?
I’m asking you my friend
my demons and my angels
why are they holding hands?

Deep down inside
04:07

Deep down inside
How can I write the songs
that live inside my heart,
when my brain filters everything
before I even start
How can I write a lovesong
or play a lullaby,
when every word I’ll ever sing
will sound just like a cry
How can I speak the words
that lie inside my head,
when every single one confirms
that soon I will be dead
Who wants to hear my story,
where no battle is won,
so let it be were it belongs
and let the show go on
Deep down inside I’m lonely
Deep down inside I’m sad
I laugh out loud to hide the tears
that bleed inside my heart

Light and darkness
03:40
|

|
Light and darkness
Light and darkness
in their endless dance,
in their queer romance
that bore colour and shade
As the sun gives way
for the moon to rise,
light and darkness meet
and jointly paint the skies
Sunrays sparkle softly
captured by the waves,
warming hearts and bodies
in the summer days
Caught beneath the moonlight
no vows left to keep,
waiting for the dawn break
when the shadows sleep
Light and darkness,
in their endless dance,
they’ve strolled inside my soul…

Empty room

Empty room
An empty room
its’ walls are bare
the shutters closed
full of stale air
It’s not as it was meant to be
it wasn’t built for him nor me
and so it waits fate’s charity
just an empty room…
My friends say
it’s a waste of space
What my mind builds
their eyes erase
They see no pictures on the wall
no toys all scattered on the floor
It tears inside my very core
this empty room…
My life feels wrong without you
though we haven’t even met
so please don’t take too long
I’m waiting just to hold you
and your room will all be set
As I walk in
I taste the tears
this empty room
is full of fears
Waits for a life that may not be
it’s like the void inside of me
And so I hope that now you see
more than an empty room…

What kind of rainbow

What kind of rainbow
What kind of rainbow do I have to chase,
so that it takes me to that special place,
where all the dreams I never dared to dream await?
I hope I don’t get there too late…
And when I get there will I recognise
all those desires that I deemed unwise?
And will I find the strength to take the likely chance,
that in misfortune’s eyes I’ll glance…
“Be smart,
sensible,
feet firm to the ground.”
But dreams fly
way up high,
somewhere over the rainbow…
My umbrella’s open even when it’s dry
and it’s so hard for me to see the sky
but I can hear the lullabies the bluebirds sing
I think I’ll close my eyes and dream…

Sweet darling

Sweet darling
Sweet darling
I wrote this song for you
to tell you
my love for you is true
Even when I’m sad
I am always glad
to have you
Forever
I thought I’d never say,
together I know we’ll find a way
Though the years go by
you make my heart fly
every time
I spent years
building walls around me
to protect my poor heart from pain.
Then you came
and slowly I felt safe and warm
and now I can stand in the rain.
I love you,
you are my true heart’s home
You’re near me
even when I’m alone
your love’s set me free
to be who I wanted to be
(fin.) and that’s to be near you
I love you
and gladly you love me

Neverland

Neverland
A ship passing by
sailing over the waves
like a dove
with its’ wings open wide
Take us away
to a far away land
where there’s no need to fear
or to cry
Every sunset
we’ll watch the sun die
as it dives
in the gold of the bay
Rose-petal rain
will flow down from the sky
Spring will break
in a scented parade
We’ll fly
fly away
like the clouds
in the sky
Fly
fly away
to the childhood
that we’ve left behind
Firework dawns
will light up the night skies
as we float
in our purple balloon
Butterfly dreams
will be swirling right by
they’ll be shimmering
under the moon
We’ll fly
fly away
like the clouds
in the sky
Fly
fly away
to the childhood
that we’ve left behind
All the candles are still burning
in the temple of our youth
But we search the book of wisdom
for the fairy tales of truth
We’ll fly
fly away
like the clouds
in the sky
Fly
fly away
to the childhood
that we’ve left behind
We’ll fly
fly away
like the clouds
in the sky
Fly
fly away
to the childhood
that we’ve left behind
the childhood
that we’ve left behind
