Life

OVER THE WATER

turn away and the collar
because the blowing is dry
walk away to the harbour
before your ships will fly slip away and the pillow
because it's falling of down
trot away and around
because your ships are found somewhere over the water
next to a harbour
someone's eager to listen someone to be in... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CARNIVAL

I will never know
cause you will never show
come on and love me now
come on and love me now Carnival came by my town today
bright lights from giantwheels
fall on the alleyways
and I'm here
by my door
waiting for you I will never know
cause you will never show
come on and love me now
come on and love me now I here sounds of lovers
barrel organs, mothers
I would like to take you
down there
just to make you mine
in a merry-go-round ----------------------------------------------------------

Beautiful One

Smooth dreams in leaves
raised in teacup
Sticked down to sleep
like an envelope
filled up with words for you Wrapped up in curls
sweet as the summer
cheek soft as a fur
grace in a slumber
beautiful wonderboy Soft beams from an early sun
on my truly beautiful one
shimmer from a Saturday sun
on my truly beautiful one rise in the morning
shine 'til the dawning Stretched out to breathe
down from the rooftops
sticked down to sleep
like an envelope
filled up with words for you -----------------------------------------------------------------

DADDY'S CAR

We took off that sunny day
packed our things and went away
me and friends in daddy's car
to find out how summers are
found a card to send from wherever we went From Luxembourg to Rome
from Berlin to the moon
from Paris to Lausanne
from Athens to the sun
our car became a spacecraft
flashing through the world
crashed down in Amsterdam
We'll take off some rainy day
pack our things and go away
families and hotelbars
to find out how summers are
find a card to send to some really old friends From Luxembourg to Rome
from Berlin to the moon
from Paris to Lausanne
from Athens to the sun
our car became a spacecraft
flashing through the world
crashed down in Amsterdam ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rise and Shine

i want to be alone for a while
i want earth to breathe to me
i want the waves to grow loud
i want the sun to bleed down
to bleed down see the waves go down
see the moon alone
see the world unshown
i raise my head and whisper rise & shine
rise & shine my sister i want to see the wounded moon
i want the sea to break through
i want it all to be gone tomorrow
so i've come to say goodbye
say goodbye see the waves go down
see the moon alone
see the world unshown
i raise my head and whisper --------------------------------------------------------------

HAPPY MEAL

arrange the books
clean up the small table by the sofa
arrange my clothes
shape up the place eager for the meeting
the dinner we'll be eating,
wine that we'll be drinking
and kinky thoughts I'm thinking,
all because of you and now I've found a partner,
no one can be, happier than I am
and now I've found a new friend,
no one can be, happier than me prepare a meal I can make
sing funny songs while it's in the oven
then take a bath with bubbles
shape up my face just before our meeting
the dinner we'll be eating,
wine that we'll be drinking
and kinky thoughts I'm thinking,
all because of you

Celia Inside

you don't want the sun to shine in
so you turn the curtains down
your eyes still don't show me a thing
and you don't feel it's sunny outside you don't want no joy for a while
but you stay up late at night
it hurts you that she's still alive
so you'll raise flowerbeds inside but she, she will not get bothered at all
she's just watching the water at fall
so you should give them just what they need
water and poetry
cause she will not bother at all
she's just watching the water at fall
you should give them just what they need
cause she will not bother at all
but you won't say you're not adored
by her beauty..... celia inside you don't want to feel her at all
but who's that fellowman of hers
with who, your dear celia moved
and they'll sleep happily inside .....but you won't say you're not adored
by her beauty
and her purity
and her lovely.... celia iside --------------------------------------------------------------------------
