Goodbye Fear
00:50

The time has come to let her go
It is time to move on
Taking only what I own
And leave the rest behind here
...goodbye fear, our time here has gone

No More Blues
01:51
|
|||
Winter revealed a girl to me
A beautiful gift from a northern tree
She captured my mind and chased my soul away
While blinded by her beauty light
I fell into love with her overnight
A foolish heart will soon find heartbreak
Now i see, yes, my friends told me so
You're not for me
And it is time to go
No more blues or darker days
When love isn't right it soon decays
And once again i can love the whole world

You Illustrate My Dreams
03:34
|
|||
You illustrate my dreams
And bring to life my day
Tell me what they mean
Before they go away
Heaven knows why your work and you
Are skipping through my mind
But something chimes inside
You show what others hide
You illustrate the world
And brighten every day
Sum it up in lines
Bursting through the grey
Such a gift as rare as you
Could look into my eyes
And see what's down inside
You know i wouldn't hide
It was summer, the last one gone
When i whispered your name
Since then you drifted from my mind and it feels like a shame
Now the time is right, and a different story will fly tonight
If you want to draw me near
I’ll love you as you are

Come to the Light
08:14
|
|||
"Awake, awake o' sleeping child - and come to the light"
You are so near, but so far it has all been pain
Now dry those tears you cry -
Your eyes are redder than the sun
You'll soon be one
With happiness
Change will carry you home
Awaken! - Cry no more tears,
Come to the light, come to the light
Over, over - it's over now
Child, dear child,
You'll be in love again soon
Your eyes are the sun and the moon
Now sing only that which is new
You have the gift of love in you
I know you feel so sad - but all that is will pass
That dream has gone, so now…
Awaken to the dawn of you,
Feel your truth
Rise up,
Shed your skin and know within
Awaken! - Cry no more tears,
Come to the light, come to the light
Over, over - it's over now
Child, dear child,
You'll be in love again soon
Your eyes are the sun and the moon
Now sing only that which is new
You have the gift of love in you

Sternenfall
03:30
|

Dear Lulabell, a bird, a tree
Renewed a right spirit within me,
We searched for ourselves in each other
We searched for a lover but found much more
Your gaze is lifted to the birds
All the bridges you, sang with kind words to...
Save me from falling downwards
Just when my steps were boundless and strong
The stars, so bright, fall from the sky
And I, I open my eyes to see my world in you
To love, let go, live and to die -
A divine vision we shared and wrote worlds anew.
I only wanted truth and soul
In you the world revealed the whole
As fishes we swim in the river
We love, and flow by in an autumn of song

Stay With Me
04:09
|
|||
Will anyone, stay with me? Tonight, tonight.
‘Cos love, love, love won’t hold my hand like I know it can
What will the future bring to wake me up inside my head?
I was in love, with somebody so kind, so kind
We had love, love, then it went away
And I don't understand, where do I put aside
This feeling that's keeping me awake
I’ve been alone and lost to me for sometime
All my tears, I hope to be
Out of sight, Out of mind, Out of mind
Will anyone stay with me? Tonight, tonight.
And love, love, love won't come my way
'Til i let this pain go within my head
And breathe another life instead
La la la la
I'll be alone, 'til somebody will find
All my dreams - a hope to kiss
When I don’t mind, I don’t mind
That she's gone, she's gone

The End of the Show
04:18
|
|||
You knew what was coming - the end of the show
A change in your heart that I didn't know
We gave each other first love
We gave it all we had
Now look upon our good times
And lock away the bad
Ba ba ba
We filled our home here, but love stayed outside
You sat there smoking across the great divide
And tho' the dark is rising
Will leave me on the floor
The moon it keeps on shining
With the chance to love once more
Ba ba ba
Heaven knows that i am sorry, sorry that I wasn't strong
Everyday I was so unhappy, unhappy that it went wrong
But now I see we gave it all that we could,
Probably much more time than anyone should have
Deep in my heart I feel love always, always for everything
You were all of beauty, beauty but you felt alone
Sacrificed our love to learn how to live
Everything that is now, is right that it is

Seven Pillows
03:01
|
|||
To the girl with seven pillows
I have dreamed you for so long
I don't know if we'll be lovers
Heaven knows what's in your heart
But 'til then, all is dream
and life feels written for me - I see the now!
For that is all that there is
That is all we will be
That is all that we are - only now
To the girl with seven pillows
You are worth the wait in gold
How the times we share are treasured
Oh, what beauty to behold!
But we shake as we touch,
And delight in as much - It feels like love
For that is all that there is
That is all we will be
That is all that we are....only love. holy love.

The Glass Girl
03:28
|
|||
The glass girl, came to me
On the night, dear night, dear light was done
None more beautiful, she
Lit the evening sun and it shone above
The light shines through her
so bright I know that to see her
Is to see love
My feet, they led me
To here for this reason only
The glass girl, praise be!
I can see, someone, who i could love
The light shines through her
so bright I know that to see her
Is to see love
With words unspoken
My heart is open to hear our song of songs
