Sleepy City
01:20
|
|||
|
the crazy city sleeps/ heavy with remorse and uneasiness/ pieces of a broken dream/ that was so real two seconds ago/ under the surface of the night/ a restless pulse is slowly beating/ the repeating pattern of the falling raindrops/ is such a soothing song.

My Strange Love
01:06
|
|||
|
winter passed/ rain crept in/ and for a second time/ my strange love/ receded from my mind.

I Want The Rain
01:48
|
|||
|
i don’t want the sun/ i want the rain/ nothing to lose nothing to gain/ i dissolve when you appear/ i don’t exist when you are here/ nothing to lose nothing to gain/ i don’t want the sun i want the rain/ i want the rain fall on me/ coming down relentlessly/ coming only to a halt/ when it has drowned the whole asphalt/ since you went away/ I only want the rain.

A Nightly Caller
01:28
|
|||
|
a nightly caller/ cat, dog or bird/ requests entrance to my house/ I opened the window/ to take a good look around/ but there’s only footprints of a mouse.

You Belong To Me
02:19
|
|||
|
see the pyramids along the nile/ watch the sunrise on a tropic isle/ just remember darling all the while/ you belong to me/ see the market place in old algiers/ send me photographs and souvenirs/ just remember when a dream appears/ you belong to me/ i'll be so alone without you/ maybe you'll be lonesome too and blue/ fly the ocean in a silver plane/ see the jungle when it's wet with rain/ just remember till you're home again/ you belong to me.
|
||||
6. |
||||
|
across the horizon/ all over the mountains/ traces of you that never disappear/ only love/ can break your heart/ outside it’s spring/ inside it’s autumn/ thoughts in the cold grip of an angry wind/ the night is a thief/ it robs me of my sanity/ while i sleep and dream of you/ like i always used to do.

Fatalities
01:38
|
|||
|
empty streets in the morning rain/ passing days won’t ease my pain/ I’m only made of memories/ falling apart with fatalities/ I’m a fatality/ you’re a fatality/ we’re fatalities/ and I hope/ and I pray/ that you are here to stay.
|
||||
8. |
||||
|
what good is a heart filled with love/ in a world full of grief/ in an endless universe there’s always one star/ burning in madness/ i had a vision of the sky turning emerald green/ after a long sad rain/ not a sound in the street/ not a breath of air/ drawn by noses or mouths/ i make up a dream/ i hope to be having/ while lightning strikes/ and thunder’s crashing/ sleep won’t come/ it won’t set me free/ this time/ light in a window/ 2 a.m./ what do people do anyway?/ dark dreams burn like heavy coal/ in the hells of our minds.

There's Only Darkness
01:56
|
|||
|
there's only darkness in my heart/ like sun and moon it will never fall apart/ there's only darkness in my heart/ there's one thing that's true for us all/ first we rise and then we fall.
|

Deep Sad Sleep
01:57
|
|||
|
about to drift to deep sad sleep/ waters wide and mountains deep/ breaking the distance between night and day/ only when I sleep I begin to feel awake/ about to drift to deep sad sleep/ rivers wide and rocks so steep / a vision of light/ breaking the spell of a bad dream/ outside the window there’s a song in the air/ and it goes.

Old As The World
01:14
|
|||
|
saw a bird today/ high on a hill/ he was chewing a seed/ on my window sill/ with the knowledge of happiness/ old as the world.
|

Night On Fire
02:54
|
|||
|
the freezing winter wind/ blows the clouds away/ so the moon can draw/ a corridor of light/ took a lonely walk/ on an empty street/ people chase their empty dreams/ looking for beauty/ tonight the night is on fire/ a place made of dreams/ filled with joy/ and full of holy songs/ i dream of the sun/ melting all the cold hearts/ making them/ feel young again.
