In The Beginning
04:03
|
|||
at the dawn of day
new life will be born
in times full of changes
into a future unknown
like the turning of the tides
the road goes up and down
a life full of challenges
....the life of our own?

sun is rising, it’s shining bright
the light will guide me through my life
mmhmm, the journey now begins
it’s dark outside and I’m afraid
to lose what I can’t reach
give me shelter, warm my heart
oh what will become of me
what has life set out for me
who will I grow up to be
it’s only a childhood dream
embrace me in the night
forever hold me close
I see myself when I look at you
now I’m slowly growing older
life will take its course
your moonlit eyes are magic in the night
oh what will become of me
what has life set out for me
who will I grow up to be
it’s only a childhood dream
only in my dreams
the world seems to be alright

My Venus Rising
07:28
|
|||
take my hand and follow me
to this place of pure serenity
embrace me
and dream with me
night turns into day
and my eyes are open wide
but still I can’t see
I’m learning to live
To me you are the sun
A light of love unsung
A Venus rising out of sea
just an angel out of heaven
is what you are to me
your wings embrace my heart
keep it innocent and pure
To me you are the sun
A light of love unsung
A Venus rising out of sea
To me you are the moon
Oh heaven’s coming soon
A Venus rising out of sea
no I can’t say to you
so far and out of reach
come closer hold me tight
and never let me go
To me you are the sun
A light of love unsung
A Venus rising out of sea
To me you are the moon
Oh heaven’s coming soon
A Venus rising out of sea

Stranger
04:13
|
|||
all alone left in the dark
where shadows move around
I fear to step into the light
to bring out what they hide
oh yes it’s strange to know
what secret lies in me
I want to know just where you are
I want to see your eyes
Stranger reveal yourself
‘cause you’re a part of me
Stranger now show yourself
So I can call you
I’m tired to move in shadows
I’m tired of living lies
all I want is peace of mind
and that’s what I will find
but now that time moves on
and I grow up
my questions hunt me down
no far and I’ll prevail
Stranger reveal yourself
‘cause you’re a part of me
Stranger now show yourself
So I can call you….daddy
my quest is you to find
Stranger reveal yourself
‘cause you’re a part of me
Stranger now show yourself
So I can call you
Stranger reveal yourself
You’re a part of me
Stranger
I want to call you
daddy

How Many Miles
03:44
|
|||
our love would last forever
that’s what you said
from here there’s no return
you promised me heaven
but soon I would learn
the dream already ended
before it began
we both believed in love
but that wasn’t enough
sometimes life can be rough
nothing lasts forever
where has our love gone
where did we go wrong
How many miles
Is the way to your heart
How many miles
Did we drift apart
How many miles
Is the way to your heart
years pass by as time grows old
seasons come and go
I whisper your name
like a gentle breeze
never thought that losing you
could hurt me so deep
How many miles
Is the way to your heart
How many miles
Did we drift apart
How many miles
Is the way to your heart
all those sweet memories
are cut deep in my soul
How many miles
Is the way to your heart
How many miles
Did we drift apart
How many miles
Is the way to your heart
the dream already ended

Better Than You
05:13
|
|||
a web of deceit around me
and I doubt if I’ll survive
if truth should win in the end
oh that day had better be near
and I hate the lies, the dirty schemes
and the endless twists of words
and I, I hate the circumstance I’m in
but it’s not the end of the world
are you better than, better than me ?
but I won’t back down on this
sure the truth is at my side
no matter what they think of me
I am standing tall with pride
trying hard to build this case
sticking to my faith
it ain’t over till it’s over
and I’ll never break
I am better than, better than you !
what are you thinking
he’s soft, so push him over
what are you wishing for
let the old days come again
what are you dreaming
living with the riches
but if ever there is justice
the hammer falls on you
I am better than, better than you !
I know you don’t believe it’s true
Oh no, better than you !
I don’t believe it’s true

Inside
05:50
|
|||
there are those days
that slap you in the face
all those shameless lies
that will trouble you
there’s a man again
trying to take you down
you refuse to be his clown
but it’s getting hard
to keep it all inside
you keep in mind
you’ll learn from the pain
all that hurt and anger
will not be in vain
though accident prone
you won’t be taken down
rise to the occasion
with a grin and a frown
just keep it all inside
if you’re a rebel without a cause
there’s no coincidence
you just haven’t found
what you’re looking for
if you’re a saint without a sin
there is no destiny
you just didn’t look
for the next metaphor
mama always said
you’ll learn from the pain
all that hurt and anger
will not be in vain
though accident prone
you won’t be taken down
rise to the occasion
give a piece of your mind
don’t keep it all inside

The Storm Rages On
08:09
|
|||
so darkness fills the night
wind strikes my soul
can you feel what I feel
this storm raging within
I have to face it all alone
no one can help me now
chance will change my faith
the final hour’s at hand
Hear the storm haul at night
Sets me in a state of fright
Run to the light
Now the storm’s rages on
living life in the fast lane
losing all track of reality
was all I did in vain?
am I losing my sanity
somehow I've always known
life's but an empty shell
consuming dreams and memories
my nightmare keeps going on
Hear the storm haul at night
Sets me in a state of fright
Run to the light
Now the storm’s rages on
Silence!….
the dream you dream will fade
face the storm so deep inside
the one that never dies
Hear the storm haul at night
Sets me in a state of fright
Run to the light
Now the storm’s rages on

I Am I
05:02
|
|||
as I awaken from the darkest of dreams
no demons that haunt me in the night
as I awaken from the darkest of fear
I will step into the light
as long as I remember
they’ve been watching all along
now’s the time to be me
to know where I belong
I am I and who are you
I am I oh who are you
try to draw the lines
to connect me with my dreams
find the colors deep inside
that give me peace of mind
see the ink so dark and cool
draw the fool I never knew
this feeling coming over me
really gives me peace of mind
I am I and who are you
I am I oh who are you
as darkness is falling over me
a light is shining bright for me
no longer strapped in boundaries
I spread my wings and fly out to the sea
I am I and who are you
I am I oh who are you

Dive With A Dolphin
05:46
|
|||
there’s so many shades of blue
getting wet in the water
I can get relief
deep under the surface
when the sun shines on the reef
there’s a lot of vivid color
I know and belief
it’s a wondrous world
I just wanna get wet
swim with the fish
I just wanna dive with a dolphin
there’s so many forms of life
scuba in the seven seas
I forget mischief
when under the waterline
with the sun over the beach
the white sand and the coral
I know and belief
it’s a great world
I just wanna get wet
swim with the fish
I just wanna dive with a dolphin
I just wanna get set
go to the deep
I just wanna dive with a dolphin
when it feels like going down
I get the urge to submerge
go swim in the ocean
when things are not going ‘round
I get the urge to submerge
go swim in the ocean
I just wanna get wet
swim with the fish
I just wanna dive with a dolphin
I just wanna get set
go to the deep
I just wanna dive with a dolphin

Wings Of The Wind
08:31
|
|||
Fly on the wings
Watch the world passing by
On the wings of the wind
Search for the light
a dream is just a moment
but memories remain
all I did see
makes me stronger day by day
my journey’s just begun
don’t ask me to stay
Fly on the wings
Watch the world passing by
On the wings of the wind
Search for the light
there’s nothing you can’t do
no strains to hold you down
no place that you can’t be
nothing you can’t see
hold on to precious goods
love, peace and harmony
hear them say
nothing lasts forever
so when love fades away
life will go on
and dreams they will fade
but memories remain
Fly on the wings
Watch the world passing by
On the wings of the wind
Search for the light
