| Summer Rain
World without a breeze
Heartbeat of the heat above the harbour
Lazy day lies dazed upon the shelf
Atomic lizards lick at the blaze of the light that is forever
No move in the solid skies
No gleaming metal out of the breathtaking blue
My golden circus girls all sailed away
The lion tamers are no longer due to play
Whoever breaks the seven seals and lets the angry angels free
I do not know
Just waiting here
For summer rain
For summer rain
Or anything else
Prophet hold your head up
Into a cluster of bees and listen
"Love of my life
Here is our honey
Yes, we can change the world, together"
And if we're still invited to walk in this party
I'd go for a saucerful of secrets or more
But the last thing I heard of was that GOD had left the lines
For a brand new universe
HE was supposed to say
My golden circus girls all sailed away
The lion tamers are no longer due to play
Whoever breaks the seven seals and lets the angry angels free
I do not care just waiting over there
For summer rain
For summer rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
Cool rain
| Romeos
There's a boy, with a little black dog
There's a boy, with a little black dog
And he looks at his watch for a while
And the falling years wash away his make up
And the falling years wash away his make up
Just like rain on the fading snow
He's a lonesome streetside Romeo
You can see him from your window tonight
This world's a divided place, you know
He's awaiting you
All the boys are locked in a fortress
All the girls are locked in a fortress
Just because it's a crime, it could be
It could be
Flesh and blood in iron and steel
Flesh and blood in iron and steel
Just because it's a crime, it could be
It could be
We're all lonesome streetside Romeos
You can see us from your window tonight
This world's a divided place, you know
We're awaiting you
We're all lonesome streetside Romeos
This world's a divided place, you know
We're awaiting you, we're awaiting you
We all change our points of view, sometimes
You can see us from your window, tonight
We're awaiting you
Awaiting you
| She Fades Away
She's like a frostfern in my head
The lamplight burns my eyes and then she fades away
My pencil's frozen in my hand
And the letter I can't write
It seems to be a desert without end
I woke up late at night
She called me up
Then disappeared
And the echo of her voice filled the empty places in my dreams
With the silent tide
She fades away
Again
She fades away
She fades away again
Don't go now
Please, stay
My senses are cruising through a void
As pale reflections play on the deserted roads
I hear the humming of machines
A distant sound like thunder crawling through the cold
There's no escape
I know
I run around in circles without end
And the more the memory grows
Dissolving from reality
With the silent tide
She fades away
Again
She fades away
She fades away again
Don't go now
Please, stay
Don't make me cry
This time I've got to learn
I know, she won't return
| The Mysteries Of Love
All I want is you, don't you know that, forever loving you
Don't you know that it's true,
I'm leaving you tonight
But don't listen if they say that we'll never meet again
In the Land of Make Believe
We cannot lose the race
Breaking the spells they put on us, my Love
We're far out of their reach, a million years ahead
They never understand the Mysteries of Love
Here's the Mysteries of Love, give your body to the Mysteries
Tear down your uniforms, here's the Mysteries of Love
All I want to be, don't you know that all we wanna be is free
Like the beasts of the sea
We kiss the last Good-Byes
And sailing with a S.M.I2.L.E 'cross the iron borderlines
That butterflies despise
We cannot lose at all
Breaking the secret spells they put on us, my Love
We're far out of their reach, a million dreams ahead
They never understand the Mysteries of Love
Here's the Mysteries of Love...
| Ariana
Driving down the streets, listening to the radio,
what do we get?
Ariana
Reading the papers and the news, they scream,
haven't you heard?
Ariana
She rules the business, she's such a restless genuine juvenile
Everyone knows, wherever she goes
She got chique, she got class, she got style
Arianamaniacs rule the world, haven't you heard
Arianamania sets the scenes on fire, fire
We're goin' nutz for Ariana, we're goin' carrazy for her
Everything glows, wherever she goes
She got sex from her lips to her toes
All the Casanovas and the zombies agree
With the hummingbirds and the beasts from the sea
Ariana's a real sensation, when will she be on the screen
Arianamaniacs rule the world, haven't you heard
Arianamania sets the scenes on fire, fire
| Heaven Or Hell
Once
I awoke
A shadow of your smile had crossed my mind
How could I know this was your last Good-Bye
That's slipping through the windmills of the night
"You never understand when she's talking to you, little boy
You never understand when she's talking to you
She's too far away..."
Is it Heaven or Hell
We're drifting in the wake of our dreams
And the world is a clown who cries
And no one can tell, is he real
Once
I cried
Whenever I awoke without you
A stranger in the thunder of the dark
I'm praying to the sun to shine tonight
"You never understand when she's talking to you, mon Amour
You never understand when she's talking to you
She's too far away..."
Is it Heaven or Hell
We're drifting in the wake of our dreams
And the world is a clown who cries
And no one can tell, is he real
| For A Million
Oh I love to dance
Under an alien sun
Along the dunes with you
I kiss you in the sand
We give so that we live
Beside the sleepy snakes
They dream of you and me
When will they ever end
For a million years they dream
For a million years they dream
And the fog conceals and hides and eats our souls
Before they open up their eyes again
How far we'll be
Remember me
Won't stop lovin' you
Although it seems to be
Our time is running out
I'm leaving you behind
No matter what they say
We'd never meet again
Our love is bigger than our lives
For a million years they dream
For a million years they dream
And the fog conceals and hides and eats our souls
Before they open up their eyes again
How far we'll be
How far we'll be
And we know that yesterday
The moon was brown
And that today it is black
And that tomorrow it is red
And we know that when we go to the sun
The moon comes along
(Hello there!)
And the cows in the pasture graze
And we know that we know what we know
Is it truth?
| Middle Of The Riddle
At the edge of the moon there's a lonely man
And he blows on his horn as strong as he can
And the girl at the bar wipes the breath
of winter away with a smile of her face
And a little black dog barks along with a loon
Is this my appointment or did I come too soon
Got a strange invitation for teatime 'twas given by somebody
I can't recall
It's the middle of the riddle
It's not very serious
It's nothing but a big surprise
And the president's horse is a rabbit of course
That is livin' in a big boy's mind
Livin' in a big boy's mind
And I skate on a knife on a wire
That is strung from this song to a distant shore
And then I say
Intuition is just another phase of chance
While we're walking the old pyramid's floors
(little pharaoh's)
And the little black dog
Here is comes again
He's a true companion in a foreign land
On a quest for the valley of boojums and birthdays
And phone calls I cannot recall
It's the middle of the riddle
It's not very serious
It's nothing but a big surprise
And the president's horse is a rabbit of course
That is livin' in a big boy's mind
We're livin' in a big boy's mind
Livin' in a big boys mind
All of man shan't talk to the one at the helm
And the man at the helm shall talk to no one at all
(rule forty-two)
And a horse is a rabbit of course
(Yes indeed)
Yes, a horse is a rabbit of course

| Anyway
Welcome
Or should I say good bye?
It's a question how close we are apart
Are you goin' back home after this show
Or leaving for the wild
And when you're passing the wardrobe
What will you take?
Your worn out hat of hopes
Or someone else's attractive furs to make it through
The playgrounds of your life
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
All the pieces came together
Finally but not too late
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
Just pretend that I'm not here
Make your choice
I'll love you anyway
I'll love you anyway
Just make your choice
Pretend that I'm not here
All the world is gone
All the world is gone
Just take it
Just take it
And you'll make it
All right, yeah
Ride on
Ride on
All is shown
All shut down
All the world is gone
Just pretend that I'm not here
Make your choice
I'll love you anyway
