A Five Minute Break

A FIVE MINUTE BREAK
seabreeze, laughter, silver lining
water's surface in the morning sun
love in our pockets, faith in our eyes
our burdens not weighing us down
rub the sleep from your eyes
find beautiful words on your tongue
everything runs in circles
and it went just to return
we took a five minute break
and almost anything had changed
we took a five minute break
now let's see what remained the same
put your hands a little deeper in your pockets
to find out by surprise, they're not empty at all
put your hands a little deeper in your pockets
landscapes and rainclouds, pictures and paintings
a heartfelt word to match a song
tell me when you found an answer
or something comparable
every word, every gesture
every smile, with every door unlocked
onward to a new begining
it is such a beautiful morning
we meet each other like the sea meets the river
like the bluest of skies meets the sunniest weather
I depend on you and you are here
and all of this makes perfect sense to my ears

Over The Moon

OVER THE MOON
with you I'm over the moon
you mean no harm to no one
we left the house barefoot
and our feet touch soft and real
bring over here your worries and your trouble
we pile them high and make them crumble and tumble
bring what you got, we can use it for the good
you do love life dearly, don't you
all the best things ever written, passing by, passing by
onto their way to wherever
to be followed to be found
to be wrapped around with grace, by you
with you I'm over the moon
serenity pours down like rain
and our hearts be full
it's all real, can you believe?
these moments of worry end in five, in four, in three
you start the countdown
pour down serenity, pour down serenity
over the moon, I said over the moon
the sound of the birds in the trees
and the rain, when it starts to fall
in a daydream, with a song on the tip of your tongue
you're my silver lining, your thoughts are my diamonds and pearls
in a daydream, with a mouth full of laughter
and a song on the tip of your tongue
with you I'm over the moon

TO FALL OUT OF THE SKY (AND TO LAND ON YOUR FEET)
I dreamed I'd awakened
and I dreamed you're the sea
and be you a tree, I would take a rest underneath your branches
snowblind, seasick, lovedumb, say can you tell
let me drop a coin into your wishing well
and then I woke up from a daydream
and somehow it made my day
when you put on another record
to learn to play your tambourine
like a boxed and storaged memory
almost forgotten melody
the sound of falling leaf
in your garden of sweet grief
theses memories always come for free
so you fall out of the sky
and you land on your feet tonight
not to wait for all to come, or some, or one thing to remain
walls are concrete at times
and then there's a cleft
and what ain't good be only half as half as bad
I dreamed I'd awakened
and the beauty I found, I found it in the world, I found it in you
and I found it in the stones and in the rain
so you fall out of the sky
and you land on your feet tonight
not to wait for all to come, or some, or one thing to remain
so you fall out of the sky
where there's a song in every sunrise
not to wait for all to come, or some, or one thing to remain at all

SMALL MIRACLES AND A FEW MISTAKES
we do speak of clouds
while we walk through the rain
there's another dramaturgical turn
with a happy end around the next corner
here's some moonlight, then there's blue skies
well-ment come to nothing plans
followed by green traffic lights, give way signs
and happiness on demand
this day, nothing but gold
every hour, each word we spoke
this day under your umbrella
save from rainclouds
this day, with a word, a note
to a melody, that slowly unfolds
this day, nothing but gold
every hour, each word we spoke
we got reason, we got laughter
we got good things to reappear
the punchline saves itself for last
and all the good won't disappear
we got moonlight, we got starlight
we got clouds, up in the sky
we got a river to pass us by
we got the day, and we got the night
five more minutes, calm and silent
five minutes of small miracles and a few mistakes
almost summer, while it still rains
rain down, rain down on me
a single moment to hold all the luck we can bear by any means
almost summer, on a rainy day

FALLIN' LEAF AND THE LOSS OF GRAVITY
all the stars, like pearls
dreamlike serenades
all the loving gestures in the world
once in a blue moon, love comes like a whispered tune
and everything there is sounds new
I have spend some time on worrying about falling leaf
and the consequences of the loss of gravity
waiting just to hear this almost forgotten melody again
and everything will sound as beautiful as the rain
all the stars, like pearls
it's all in the minds of the ones you love
the arms that lift the burden
could you imagine this place with no heart but your own
not much as it was planned
but all turned out so well
with everything in its place, can you tell?
once in a blue moon, love is but a stunning view
and everything there is appears new
your heart is a goldmine
you do speak words of relief
in a tone, that I long to hear
I have spend some time on worrying about falling leaf
and the consequences of the loss of gravity
it came to me like the rain
like the wind, like sun and night and day
not at all, it just came, and I was there

BY POPULAR DEMAND
it's a relief, I can see from afar
that peoples hearts
shine bright like the sun and the moon and the stars
here comes the limit of blue
no deeper, no further
touch me, who told you not to?
we stretch and we bend and we enjoy the view
which from here is turquoise blue
with a slightly shade of yellow
bad luck got caught with its pants down
our days became bigger
with a little bit of rhythm and rhyme
night to day changing smoothly, slowly but surely
everyone pays a visit today
and they bring presents, they bring presents
here it comes, by popular demand
there is soul in the hearts of man
here's the beach, says the grain of sand
an orchestration to a one-man band
we may not be home for lunch, we may not be home for dinner
we lost track on the winding road of artistical expression
going places reading poetry, watch how time just flies
you dig my taste, but do you like my accent?

A PROMISE IN EVERY UNSPOKEN WORD
rescue always lying in wait around each corner
and rescue always lying in wait behind every door
back home, back home, I wonder if the trees had missed me
I don't think it's easy and I don't think it's fair
when you step out of line and you find nothing waiting there
tender is your speech, but you mean it
could you please write me a poem
and please do write it on the back of a postcard
and do send it after me, so I'd remember where I am
there goes my everything
almost a miracle, almost unreal
where all is good and some of it is mine
like some words unspoken
press play, have a look at all the small miracles
let's go ask if we could stay here for a little longer
so much of nothing and still too much empty
I don't think it's easy and I don't think it's fair
when you return one fine day and you find nothing waitin' there
I found you waiting, but you don't know what for
say, can I rest my eyes on you
not for long, but for the length of a song
while there's a promise in every unspoken word
see how the water comes to the shore
say, can I wait next to you
just for a minute, enough time to hear
that there's a promise in every unspoken word

ON A COOL SEABREEZE MORNING
I'm gonna wait some more for the punchline
I'm gonna sit right down and wonder
how time went by like in dreams
and our days are filled with reason
under a liquid sky
that floats toward another simple sacred night
had a look at all you've dragged inside
read the news from your eyes
ain't no plane in the blue sky
the alley quiet, time passing by
I am over the moon tonight
I say your name, say it many times
and I wish, and I wish, and I wish you're here
can you hear me say
that most dark of course is dark
but most light I've seen is bright as day
and most talk ain't worth the talk
when most words I hear ain't from the heart
from out one sacred night
to another blessed early dawn
to still dream of star studded skies
on a cool seabreeze morning
stars still sparkle while the moon goes down
says sunshine girl to stormy weather clouds
we sway in the breeze of light midsummer winds
isn't this just pleasant time
be it a marginal note in most people's lifes
it is the preface, the story, a word and its rhyme
so do we ask, is it the time of day
to dream your day away
or is it the day, that went by like a dream anyway
and our days are filled with reason
under a liquid sky
that floats toward another simple sacred night

A BOOK AND SOMETHING (ALMOST LIKE A CHAIR)
mind the gap, don't stumble
it is the threshold to the summer
when days and nights are alive
with sound, fragrance and colour
we no longer wish to remain in the arms of sleep and hesitation
we wanna be with the world
and the world keeps on turning
why not shoot your worries to the moon
take a swim in cool water
a lightyear from all no-good
a day over the moon
why not breath out your worries to the sky
take a deep breath and keep going
a lightyear from all no-good
a day over the moon
I got a book here and something almost like a chair
what a stroke of luck
I got you, so I got a friend, a piece of paper and a pen
what a stroke of luck
you know that I love you with all my heart
I love you with all my heart
I'll write you poems
to read aloud while you wake up in the morning
what a surprise, don't hesitate
this is nothing but an unexpected turn
these days and nights and all they hold
almost more than we're able to learn
we no longer wish to remain in the arms of sleep and hesitation
we wanna be with the world
and the world keeps on turning
I read this book cover to cover, put it back on the shelf
and said, that's that, what next?
then I turned around, to find out that it was summer

For All The Words Unsaid
05:25
|

FOR ALL THE WORDS UNSAID
if this walls could talk
they would tell you things, that you long to hear
if this walls could talk
they would wrap you in precious words
some about the presence of grace
in the presence of love unconditional
and some about a poem in every sunset
while the day still lingers on
all the rivers, they dream of the sea
all the words long for a poem to speak to you and me
a cloudless sky, and sweetest words of comfort
all the rivers, they dream of the sea
so paint this day, oil on canvas
find a word, a wish, a dear friend
take your time, and take a seat beside me
to dream of snow, to talk about summer
bottom of the heart, our home in the world
sing me your song, let me know, that you're around
searching, dreaming, waiting patiently
familiar face, familiar melody
don't you remain silent for too long
today I ain't got much to do
but waiting and dreaming
familiar melody
and a face I long to see
why don't you at least draw me a painting
for my art gallery
give the trees a voice and I guess they'll sing
a sweet melody to the wind
give the trees a voice and I guess they'll sing
some about the presence of grace
in the presence of love unconditional
and some about a poem in every sunset
while the day still lingers on
we better do take a chance and fall hopelessly in romance
before we end up empty handed, with both our feet in emptiness
for it is a mistake not being in love
a song for all the words unsaid, lost, unspoken and unread
searching, dreaming, waiting patiently
familiar face, familiar melody
don't you remain silent for too long
we better do take a chance and fall hopelessly in romance
before we end up empty handed, with both our feet in emptiness
for it is a mistake not being in love
a song for all the words unsaid, lost, unspoken and unread
for all the words unsaid
for all the words unsaid
lost, unspoken and unread
for all the words unsaid

TICKET FOR A BUSRIDE HOME
good thing, about to take shape
from the abstract to the concrete
notice the perfect way the story goes on
with every single word in its place
something new about dreams
and the fading and reappearance of music
with arms wide open
and a heaven unclouded
you shouldn't be somebodys nobody
no you ain't, no you ain't
all these beautiful creatures
these beautiful creatures
we do dream
one hundred miles an hour
and see how it all turns out
watch it sparkle like a christmas tree
all these words make sense when I talk to you
I wanna be where you are
all this notes sound better when you hear them too
I wanna be where you are
all the doors open, all of the time
for we got so much better things to do
this is all yours, and some of it is even mine
everybody talking
for everybody knows a thing
we ask for the substance
and what good it can bring
and what if you have found
what you have been looking for
for it has been a pretty penny
that slipped back into your pocket
that you needed urgently
for a ticket for a busride home

FIND ALL THERE IS TO FIND
we'll find all there is to find
in just one blink of an eye
in every face we see
tonight we may disappear between the pillows and the sheets
like never to be seen again
and tomorrow here, same time, again it's you and I
and I tell you, we'll be alright
with a blueprint of our love
and a map for our long way home
paint sun and moon and the stars
with water colour all around your belly button
I love this life so desperately
don't know where I'd rather be
like the trees our days stretch to the sky
stood underneath good luck's window
throwing pebbles from the ground
the house remained asleep while good luck came down
one telegram saying love is here
one phonecall and it's for you
a ring at the doorbell not just for the thrill of it
anybody home?
who teached you to sing this song
that's how love goes, that's how love goes wrong?
somebody waiting at you door
anybody home?
to make out your face in the crowd
to chuckle, to laugh out loud
to calm down in your presence
tonight we may disappear between the pillows and the sheets
like never to be seen again
and tomorrow here, same time, again it's you and I
and I tell you, we'll be alright
she is paradise
we're clouds in irregular shapes
and you're beautiful spirit is structured like music

SLEEPLESS IN YOUR PRESENCE
peacefully she turned her head from the nightly sky
and I said to myself goodbye goodbye
I said goodbye goodnight
I'm in a sleepless in your presence state
your night without a moon
all shades of the colour scale
your all, your least, your too late, your too soon
peacefully she opened her mouth to teach a new word
and I asked myself where to go
and I answered that I don't know
a single word to clear the view
on what it is when it ain't what it seemed to be
all shades of the colour scale
all shades of the moon
the sun may shine and the wind may blow
everybody ready, one hand at the door handle
we're so excited, for here it comes
everybody ready
listen closely, translate the language of the world
imagination always runs too fast or not at all
so do we wish to stop for a minute to explain ourselves
but thank you for listening, you know we had a ball
peacefully she turned her head from the nightly sky
and I said to myself goodbye goodbye
and I said goodbye goodnight
everything we say and do holds a simple truth
everything we say and do holds something new
I'm in a sleepless in your presence state
peacefully, I'm in a sleepless in your presence state

BLUEPRINT FOR LOVER'S EYES
what does the river know about being a river
the rain fell down, seep into the ground
what does the river know
you trust me, I'm a daydreamer
believe me, I don't know what I do here
but here's a blueprint for lover's eyes
the harder you look the less you see me
here's the most funny thing I have ever seen
closest place to heaven I have ever been
a full circle, a place where we belong
and still do we refuse to accept anything else but a happy ending
we're all a little stubborn at times
because we are supposed to
and since we all know that young is the heart
and that all trouble ends sometime anyway
we reach for the moon and the stars tonight
you say hello, don't say goodbye
I know you, deep as the ocean
I know you, quiet as the night
I know you, rush like a waterfall
not a second there's a shade of doubt about you
this is the funniest book I have ever read
most broken down chair on which I ever sat
a full circle, a place where we belong

THE FIRST SNOWFLAKE OF WINTER
here's the first snowflake of winter
here's another brilliant idea
here is something we found, to put on solid ground
we spend our days in anticipation
we dream our dreams and be touched by words
we found something that's worth its weight in gold
we touch, we feel, we fall asleep, we dream
every little piece comes back, you'll see
let's talk about silence, to find relief in a word
your breath on the mirror, your shilouette, like in dreams
every little piece only just out of reach
let's talk about silence to find relief in a word
I almost missed to come to see you
for I have been busy missing you
but our time is alive, and I'm right on time
I almost missed to come to see you
for I have been busy missing you
but our time is alive, and all we've waited for has arrived
here is one more well-known secret
and another wellkept promise
you dream of rain to write in the melting snow
an open door to a sunlit room
a route less travelled that leads to you
a morning by the sea, back home by the afternoon
with postcards from all places seen
and imaginaried views from books and dreams
we decorate the walls of our innermost
dream of summer, learn to sing with the birds
sing another song, find another word
raindrop raindrop falling down
that's how love comes around
your head in the clouds, your eyes towards the sun
find another word, sing another song
raindrop raindrop falling down
that's how love comes around

Something To Wake Up To
03:58
|

SOMETHING TO WAKE UP TO
to dream with the setting sun
to float on air like a birds feather
cool like a river from a mountain
like a fountain on a midsummer afternoon
while even rocks in our shoes, and all the gravity in the world
wouldn't keep our feet on the ground
to dream with the setting sun
to float on air like a birds feather
do you like seaview in the morning?
something to wake up to
from starlit dreams and peaceful sleep
there was moonlight, there was laughter
then the sun came up, almost unreal
almost fragile, see-through
almost obvious and clear
so you've been around and what you've seen and heard
is beauty and lovely sound
with wind in the treetops, rustling leaf
you've seen rain, rivers, and the sea
while even rocks in our shoes, and all the gravity in the world
wouldn't keep our feet on the ground
to dream with the setting sun
to float on air like a birds feather
do you like seaview in the morning?
something to wake up to
from starlit dreams and peaceful sleep
something to wake up to
let's get closer and speak familiar words again
your hands look beautiful with that welcome gesture
we got coats and we got umbrellas
and we do love the rain, we do love the rain
we got roofs and windowpanes
and we do love the rain, we do love the rain

Can We Say Love?
04:18
|

CAN WE SAY LOVE?
tell me, will it make sense to your ears
can we say love?
our little worries may clear up like the weather
once we do start to talk
with a mouth full of grapes and peach
we do speak words, sugarsweet
we got flowers growing from old teapots
and birds, that nest underneath this roof
clouds don't stop for too long before this windows
and the trees around the house do bear the sweetest fruits
looks like we've found a place
that allows to see the stars
can we say love?
can we be invited?
is there enough love that we're able to find it?
not too far and out of touch
say, is there enough
can we say love?
tell me, will it make sense to your ears
can we say love?
I don't see a reason for worry lines around here
once we do start to talk
with a mouth full of grapes and peach
we do speak words, sugarsweet
of rainclouds and good luck it pours down
we do get on this roundabout for another round
wish I could save some raindrops for you
to wear them like a pearl necklace, like you use to
looks like we've found a place
that allows to see the stars
can we say love?
can we be invited?
is there enough love that we're able to find it?
not too far and out of touch
say, is there enough
because lately we found ourselves understanding
lately we found ourselves agreeing
lately we have found ourselves
can we say love?

Tell It To The Raindrops

TELL IT TO THE RAINDROPS
I wish you'll find your way
to all the places you can call home
I wish you do come home
with all the time you use to spend alone
see, you never knew what it was
now you don't know how to get it
all this single, solitary words
making their way into a melody
all this single, solitary words
and you tell it to the moonlight
that your lover is not here
you tell it to the sunlight, girl
that your lover is not here
tell it to the fish in the lake that you cry
ever since he disappeared
and you tell it to the raindrops, tell it to the raindrops
I wish you'll find your way
I wish you would ask me for a difference
between the deep blue sea
and the depth of blue in you and me
once you said the names of the ones you love
you'll find all your words rhyme
a heart a mess, yours and mine
there's a change of season in the blink of an eye
come home, everywhere else it's raining, I guess
a heart a mess, a heart a mess
a heart a mess, a wish, a desire
there's change of the verse, not a change of the choir
come home, everywhere else it's raining, I guess
a heart a mess, a heart a mess
I wish you'll find your way
to all the places you can call home
I wish you do come home
with all the time you use to spend alone
we do arrive untouched
we carve our hope in stone
and everything I know is just everything I know
you may have left a mark with every word you said

LIKE PAINTINGS IN MY ART GALLERY
goodnight, lover's moon, sometimes a secret garden
sometime, one day soon
good morning, awake
who put those glance upon your face?
who did those painting on the moon?
I turn towards the light of day
and the day smiled on you
I turn towards you and the summer rain
and this is something new
so if you can't find a friend while you travel the world
promise to return
like the sun and the moon and the starlight in june
or whatever, whatever
situation changed from bad to worse?
tables flip, tables turn
sometime, one day soon
you got another mile, I walk with you
the rain won't stop and you're feeling blue
and this day I'm with you, too
you hung your thoughts like paintings in my art gallery
some found it out of place, but some ain't me
you go on promise me the moon in the middle of the day
and see how I understand what you mean, more than I can say
goodnight, goodnight, lover's moon
and if your love freezes over
like the way under your feet
I ask you to promise to return to me
and if your view becomes to narrow
and you can not see what you can not see
I ask you to promise to return to me
