it's been a long, hard way back to the present back to the things and feelings that are pleasant but i'm not pleased about what you are telling me it's been along, long time to go without it so many nights awake to think about it and now there's nothing left to feel ref. behind these walls the drama it is growing our love's a fire, is it still glowing? can you tell me what's happening here to me and you don't try to look behind these curtains never try to guess these endless burdons i have to tell you again that we will never pass another day arises from the darkness another day to assault the fortress an interpersonal war that no one can win ref. behind these walls the drama it is growing our love's a fire, is it still glowing? can you tell me what's happening here to me and you behind these walls the drama it is taking us and all the doubts and feelings they are shaking us is there someone to reach a hand to me and you behind these walls the love that we've been sharing builds the wall that we are tearing down and is there someone to get us out here, me and you behind these walls the drama it is growing our love's a fire, is it still glowing?

it hasn't happened really often only from time to time to time that i've understood immediately what you mean when you say it doesn't happen really often just from time to time to time that i feel love in here where there's no love but fear it may sound sad that way when there is nothing else to say but remember what i said it is not that often ref. i don't care what they tell me on my way i will just go on lovin you when you make me strong from time to time to time it doesn't happen really often only from time to time to time that you say what it is what you really miss it doesn't happen really often only from time to time to time that we find the perfect way how i wish it would stay not always up for good this is why we could not avoid the darker days they're not that often. ref.

Dear E. 03:12
happy voices from outside the house my two girls are playing there no need to say how proud i am two or three years from now and then they’ll be the same age as we were when i was so in love with you i cannot say ref. sometimes i think about what could have happened if things had turned out a different way well, i don’t regret a single day but, dear e., what would life be like then? life has taken us to different towns and into different worlds we‘ve each been going our own way then very few times our paths have crossed it was so long ago but i still wonder what if why when and how ref.

Can't Let Go 03:48
somehow i'm still in what we used to share, but i have to let go rememberin' it will always take me back there i just can't defend it ref. take care for what you say and take care for where you go take care for whom you talk to take care for what you think it's not a warning what i'm tryin' to tell you i'm just worried about you being helpless all alone somewhere out there i just couldn't bear it ref. they say I'd better stay away from you now i have to let go they say i'd better look for somone new now i have to let go ref. take care for where you go take care for whom you talk to take care for what you say and take care for what you do take care for what you think, take care for what you think

you said we´re in a one way street, and we‘ve been for a while now the car goes far too fast, and it keeps going faster you said we took the wrong turn then, no chance to change the direction passing the cities, one by one ref. this is where we started from this is where we’ll go can’t you see wheels are turning i’m still learning like before you said that we could fall apart, if we do not stop here you said that i’m in charge of what’s coming next now the cities we don’t go to, we’re only passing by it’s like the view from a train ref. i think that all you said was right, there’s nothing to add to i think that it’s okay what else should i say now? no chance to start from zero again now heading on to what is next … ref.

I can see a tear running from your sad eye but I can find no reason for tears or for sad eyes I can hear the word comin‘ from your dry lips but I don’t seem to comprehend what you want to say I can feel your fear it is blurring your sad eyes Let me lend a hand to guide you from this dark place ref. I must dive into your sadness to understand the reasons for your sadness and bring you home again I’ve always thought I could help. Now it seems complicated. You‘ve drifted off so far from me, almost out of reach Never said a word you haven’t in a long time. But can I break your silence and make you laugh again? I still feel a fear, but it seems defeated I’d love to read it from your eyes that I‘ve got you back ref.

from here i can see what everything is depending on from here i’ve got an overview over it all leave the here and now behind! take your place far from what´s concerning you leave it all behind and you will know what i meant when i said ref. can you see what i see – from that position? the context of coherence – what is your position? recognise the quintessence – from another position. from another position, from another position. now you climb up the highest point around. now you choose a tower, a mountain or a building! leave the here and now behind! take place far from what´s concerning you if you now look down on where you´ve come from, you may understand what i meant when i said ref. can you see what i see – from that position? the context of coherence – what is your position? see the quintessence – from another position. from another position, from another position.

your vision of this world was so different from mine the dreams that you had they were different from mine sometime you said we could change the world sometime you said we could change our minds is it true that the world seems to be better now is it true that the standards have improved when will you see the other side when will you realise that we fall

if you watch out for the beauties of this world you will never find a place which could earn this word which could ever earn this word you can travel all around the world you will never find a place which is not destroyed a place that’s untouched there are footprints all over this world everywhere you go everywhere you go there was someone before ref. are we too clever for this world are we too clever for this world it can’t reach our speed it can’t reach our speed if you wanna take a breath of fresh air you must travel so far so far away to the end of the world and there is always a point of no return a point that you know ist little name simply starts with d there are footprints all over this world everywhere you go everywhere you go there was someone before ref.
