| 2. Nightswan
Linger on, oh waning moon
This midnight hour has come much too soon
By the crystal lake we stand
with our names in the sand
Believe me, my Love
I will wait for you
And I will return
if you still want me, too
With the song of the nightswan
And I'll be in heaven!

No longer by my side can you stay
In shrouded mists you disappear
like a ghost bayadere
Where are you my Love?
I'm calling your name
This spell can be broke
Love's ignited the flame
Like the song of the nightswan...
Oh, believe me, my Love
I will stand, laying siege this fortress of time
With the glory of you in my heart
charge before the sun touches the rime
The Beltane fires upon the hill
Your hand in mine by the old water-mill
Fairies sing our wedding song
now the moon lingers on
Stay with me, my Love
my Angel, my Life
I've walked this dark maze
and now we will fly
On the wings of the nightswan...
3. Trying Not Breathe
Oh, this void inside tears my soul apart
Why did you lie? I lost my faith in you!
Once there was purity but now only perfidy and pain
because you've been untrue!
You broke all promises and now our love is bound die
and so am I - I die!
Lost forever within the debris of my dreams
I put my trust in you!
How could you leave me in a lurch
after all that I've gone through
What the hell did you do?
Down on my knees I pray:
"Save me, save me, save me, please!"
but no hope anymore - I die!
I'm trying not breathe!
I can't stand this anymore therefore I'll leave
I'm trying not breathe!
And so I'll leave this world behind
broken by faithlessness of the killing kind
I'm trying not breathe!
Remember when you called my name?
I've been always there for you!
me it's more than just a game
I loved you too much, and still I do!
Now your body's so close mine
I kiss your lips goodbye
lie in your arms for a last time
before I die!
And he dreams of days gone by
Floating down the other side
A thousand Angels cry
Firing squad against the walls of light
Not again another day
Now his love has lost the last stand
Oh Angels, hear him pray
As he's passing away inher hands!
I'm trying not breathe!
I can't stand your loss, your lies; therefore I'll leave
I'm trying not breathe!
and so I try leave the pain behind
of treason that became the killing kind
I'm trying not breathe!
But you swore you'd love me forever
and it was only yesterday
What have I done deserve this
Am I destiny's fool?
And I hate you,
and I love you for what you've done me
Oh shit, why did you leave me in such despair?
I'm trying not breathe
though I try so hard reach the other side
I'm trying not breathe
No more songs for me sing because you leave
Now I think I see the light: Goodbye, my love!
Oh, I'm trying not breathe
4. Baleias Bailando
By the ocean I sat down one day
Saw my life the other way
All those trials no avail
Broken dreams was all I bloody gained
Remember well when I was a child
They promised me a paradise
But promises turned inlies
leaving us a world demise!
Hold me in your arms
Drown me in sweet moisture
Lascivious fiery breath covering....
Your fangs softly penetrate
the pleasure and the pain
Dissolving I discern:
Im not dead!
I asked for love, got a golden cage
Plastic emotions in a plastic age
The pain I felt they told me wasn't real
"The Earth!", I cried: My last appeal!
Now it's my turn realize
change the road, change the side
The past has gone, may it rest in peace
A new dawn fades as She sows the seed
Hold me in your arms
Drown me in sweet moisture
Lascivious fiery breath overflow....
Your fangs softly penetrate
the pleasure and the pain
Dissolving I discern:
Im alive!
A midnight's dream disclosure
saw momentous desire
My life layed in your hands,
My confidence....
The background of reality
just one step away
Am I cross the frontier?
Am I dare?
In dreams I died a thousand times
But then one dream: A golden shrine
Her whispered words did soothe my grief
What a candour in this world of thieves
I hear the call of the roaring sea
Still a fire's burning inside of me
The wind shall take me another shore
The Earth I am, for evermore!
Way down, carry me down
the ocean of love!
Alone again I stand
amongst the debris of a dream
having face once more
the madness of love
But I know that the Goddess
will hear my yearning call
and her enchanting song
will make my heart dance
5. Dancing In The Midnight Sun
Farewell, pretty one: It's all over now you've gone
After all that we went through, you left me when I needed you
The times we shared, the good and bad,
were the best I've ever had, the best years of my life....
Farewell, pretty one: I've put all my faith in you
and I can't understand: Did you lie on that night
you said you'd never let me go?
Oh, I believed each word you've said
I believed until the end
It's so hard realize you never wanted me that close by your side
And the snow falls back in time
down the hillside on our sledge we'd ride
We were laughing in the january sun
And for a moment time stood still as we rode on and on and on....
Still the snow falls on Yule-tide
falls forever on that dreary mountainside
And the ghost of our love stands right above: A monument of your smile
And our laughter that died so long ago lingers on and on and on...
Never will I forget our last winter
Never will I forget the last winter of our love!
Goodbye, pretty one: You broke my heart twice, now I'm done!
You left me like a dream at the break of dawn and I almost died
And even if you're lying now in someone else's arms
I'm still with you in a dream,
in dreams of days gone by, the best days of my life
Goodnight, my love, goodnight....
For we were dancing in the midnight sun
our love became too wild
I loved you like a child
The fire went out, went out before dawn
and I broke down and cried
and I drowned and died
6. Planet Kyrah
Oh, you changed everything
Nothing's the same anymore
I see colours I've never seen before
I hear songs that make my heart sing with joy
You set my heart on fire like it never burned before
And I'm sure that up there in the sky
shine some new-born stars
that were not known until tonight
Can you hear me ground-control?
I think I'm lost in space
Do you hear me ground-control?
An unknown planet appears on my screen....
Never thought I'd be an astronaut
Never thought I'd leave the earth
Never thought I'd fly so high
Break through the sky while you hold me in your embrace
And as the air starts getting thin
Your lips on mine exchanging love's oxygen
And the last call they receive:
Our capsule vanishing somewhere behind Andromeda....
We can't hear you ground-control!
I think we're lost in space!
We can't hear you anymore!
An unknown planet appears on our screen....
I'll meet you tonight
on Planet Kyrah!
I'll kiss you tonight
on Planet Kyrah!
7. The Sea
Down in the gutter of broken hearts I lie
in 8 months time died the love of my life
Wounds cut so deep: Will I ever forget that
you crept away like a thief in the night?
And I'm standing on top of a mountain
Crying bereavement the stars
Will I make my way without you?
Will I ever get over you?
Oh, this room: it seems so strange now
cause your laughter still echoes inside
Withered roses will never bloom again
Carry my weight: Those memories of you!
Once I felt that you loved me
These days are over, now we're through
Our secret garden lost forever
I never thought you could be that cruel
In cold blood you walked away!
I saw a shadow on the shadow of her smile
Dream-like strains wake me up at night
The memory of her presence faded long ago
like a vanished trail of smoke
I try in vain recollect the time
of a love that we once shared
Fragments of her voice come haunting me at night
How I wished I could turn back time
Her name once written down in my diary
now frozen between the lines
Gone like last winters frostwork on the window-pane
Will I ever understand?
Still there's a shadow on the shadow of her smile
Gates of time can never be crossed twice
The frostwork of our love melted all away
but when we die our songs remain!
And comes the winter of our lives
we're trying keep us warm
with the ashes of our fading memories
Once frostwork's fallen on the ground
You can never bring it back
It's melting without sound
Nights are so cold and empty without you
Still your scent lingers on in my room
Trying set sails for a new horizon
Trying keep the candle alight!
Still I'm standing on top of the mountain
with my soul floating the stars
Songs of love and loss while the night
of this new moon does conceal
my bleeding heart!
No regrets - I won't look back in anger
Even if it's so hard forget
Will I survive yet another dark winter
til snow will melt and rivers do flow?
And our time did not last forever
Though our love it seemed so pure
While I face the light of a new day
Hope these memories fade away
How I wished they'd fade away!
Take me down the sea
Take me my last resort d'Amour
Take me down the sea
Down there my lover's waiting
She has come for our last rendez-vous
Singing, dancing, dreaming
Drowning in the waves of tears that never dry
Drowning in the waves of love that never dies
8. Our Last Show
And the rear lights of your car
behind the trees they fade away
walking inside somnambular
there goes a lovelorn castaway
Does it always have be like this?
I'll never know
Was it something that I said?
You said: "I gotta go...."
While leaving me back here with my memories and my tears
You won't reappear!
Staring at the telephone
Wondering if I'd try?
I never knew that nights could be that long
And still I hear your last good-bye
Strange people on the screen, they try make me laugh
But everywhere I see your face
and the photograph on the wall says that you're gone
And I'm waiting for the sun, keep dreaming on.....
No fire in the lighthouse
guide me tonight
Don't know if our planet's razed
torn apart by love's meteorite
I know I will lose you
How can I face another daylight?
And I know
this could ring down the curtain our last show
No second chance for Juliet and her Romeo
No applause, no ovations, no bravissimo
Please don't go!
9. Forever I Ride
As the autumn wind blows hard in crawling devastation
I was not prepared find fate in a state of rage
Love once seemed so strong me, promising salvation
another Tragedie d'amour appearing on life's stage
And again he hears the raven's cry....
I'm strucked down without warning
by your words like cyanide
She left me in the morning but forever I will ride
And forever I ride...
Suddenly I'm lost inside tremendous aberration
Songs that used make me glad now make me wanna cry
Restlessly I'm walking empty streets up the station
Standing there in silence as the trains keep passing by
And he turns his face towards the sky...
The stars fade in the dawning, but the door's still opened wide
And still I am adorning, but forever I will ride
And forever I ride....
In love from the first time that I saw you
and the fire in your eyes
Take me your sea of flowers
Hold me as the wind shakes the rye
Lady of the Lake: I long be with you
Burning streams like ours cannot disband
The mist it spreads your name in early morning dew
Forever shall you be Queen of the Land
Incense leaving trails of smoke
A vision of us fasting our hands
Angels laying siege my heart
and I shall not longer withstand
Lady of the Lake: I long be with you
This love of ours will never ever end
May the silver moon make all our dreams come true
Forever shall you be Queen of the Land
Hear the song of the waves
Storms calling up thunder and light
A premature grave overgrown by black lillies of night
Hekate arise!
Bring back the love of my life!
Rain falls down, it soaks my cloak on this cold grey morning
I missed the last train that could have me taken back you!
There's no use in staying here waiting for the dawning
The fool just saddles up again as if he always knew
that again he'd hear the ravens cry....
10. The farewell
I wanted live on top of a mountain
but it's cold and forsaken there without you now
I wanted dive inthe ocean of love
but I got shipwrecked on the shores of broken dreams
For you I sang songs of the nightswan
and each line I wrote was a beat of my heart
Forever burning on love's funeral pyre:
Stop beating now, my bleeding heart!
For this knife did cut too deep
so for the last time I'm trying not breathe
Once there was a fire in the lighthouse of my heart:
I gave you so much more than just my love
and you broke so much more than just a promise
Our planet vanished so devastatingly
amongst the mists of time
There was no treasure be found at Rainbow's End
somewhere behind Andromeda
I've been waiting til the end of december
but no more will I ride
for the winter solstice's child
will pass away silently on a midsummer's night
So may you come now, my Dead Romantic Angel
serenade Kyrahnean Hymns me
Hold me in your arms
cover me with elder flowers
and take me down my beloved sea
I'm so tired, so tremendously tired
Please wait for me under the midnight sun
where I will sing and dance again
and my laughter will be heard
echoing down the hillside again...
Oh, how I tried believe, how I loved,
How I tried hold on my dream;
How I wanted live - but now I'm going home
a place where love is more than just a four-letter word
and as I kiss the memory of yours goodnight
I'm beginning see the light...
Ich liebe Dich für immer!
11. End Of December
Now I guess there's something wrong:
All stars fall down the story ends
Maybe there'll be another song
Though nothing's left but somnolence
And I'm so tired and worn out
Sometimes I feel like Hawkeye Pierce
I try laugh among the tears
How I'm trying not think of you night and day
But with each breath your last words come my way
Will I ever trust in anyone again?
Some say treasures are hidden behind sorrow and pain
Til the end of December
I'll be waitng for you
And I cannot longer stay here
Amongst your broken promises
Another planet's calling
I'll be gone with the rain
Til the end of December
I'll be waiting for you
Oh, believe me that I will wait
Til the end of December
You made me tumble made me fall
And though I seem understand
I crash my head against the wall
How could this vow of yours disband?
And how much longer will I stand
Lying awake in sleepless nights
I wish I could replace my mind...
But it won't last forever
So my friends do say
Step by step I'm getting by
And though sometimes my heart still sticks yesterday
I hold on my dream and I'll be riding again
Til the end of December
I'll be waitng for you
And I cannot longer stay here
Amongst your broken promises
Another planet's calling
I'll be gone with the rain
Til the end of December
I'll be waiting for you
And I guess I can wait
For sure I will wait
Til the end of December
Til my hearts beats again
I won't surrender
Til the end of December
You don't want me anymore
So I walk out of your door
I don't want hear one more pathetic excuse
You didn't give me just one chance
I should have known by clairvoyance
From the first time you didn't wear the ring anymore
Good luck you
So long, Farewell, Goodbye
I won't come back again
You were not the one I searched for
But I know I will find her
Til the end of December
I'll be waitng for you
And I cannot longer stay here
Amongst your broken promises
Another planet's calling
I'll be gone with the rain
Til the end of December
I'll be waiting for you
And I got strength endure
Til the end of December
All the love that I have will show me the way
Til the end of December
Til my heart beats again I know I'll obtain
Til the end of December
I'll be waiting for you
