these dreams
Spare a little candle
Save some light for me
figures up ahead
Moving in the trees
White skin in linen
Perfume on my wrist
And the full moon that hangs over
these dreams in the mist
Darkness on the edge
Shadows where I stand
I search for the time
On a watch with no hands
I want to see you clearly
Come closer than this
But all I remember
Are the dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
Is it cloak 'n dagger
Could it be spring or fall
I walk without a cut
Through a stained glass wall
Weaker in my eyesight
The candle in my grip
And words that have no form
Are falling from my lips
There's something out there
I can't resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There's something out there
I can't resist
The sweetest song is silence
That I've ever heard
Funny how your feet
In dreams never touch the earth
In a wood full of princes
Freedom is a kiss
But the prince hides his face
From dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

Heart - These Dreams ©
A Dance 'Round The Memory Tree
Words we have said
Grew in my head
Coloured my thoughts
Sang me to bed
Lost memories
Grew into trees
Covered the doors
Swallowed the keys
Winters have come and gone
You know
Winters have come and gone
You know
But I'll meet you young and free
For a dance 'round the memory tree
Said I forgot
But I did not
Dreams we have had
Play in my head
Did we believe
The cry of the leaves?
Did we regret?
Would we forget?
Winters have come and gone
You know
Winters have come and gone
You know
But I'll meet you young and free
For a dance 'round the memory tree

winter light
It's always in the back of your mind
When everything is dark, still something shines
One chilly afternoon, you drew the blind
The earth was frozen
Ice upon the water
All at once you saw her
There in the Winter Light
Then the light came bouncin' up, from stony ground
And deep within the earth you heard the sound
Breakin' like a rock you grew profound
​
The earth was frozen
Ice upon the water
All at once you saw her
There in the Winter Light
Making everything look beautiful
Light, a child with his own fantasmagoria
Light that spills from billions of excited atoms
Light that lingers in a quiet room
Reveal for me shine for me
There in the Winter Light
Shine for me, reveal for me
There in the Winter Light
There in the Winter Light

irgendwas bleibt
Sag mir, dass dieser Ort hier sicher ist
Und alles Gute steht hier still
Und dass das Wort
Das du mir heute gibst
Morgen noch genauso gilt
Diese Welt ist schnell
Und hat verlernt beständig zu sein
Denn Versuchungen setzen ihre Frist
Doch bitte schwör
Dass wenn ich wiederkomm
Alles noch beim Alten ist
Gib mir ‘n kleines bisschen Sicherheit
In einer Welt, in der nichts sicher scheint
Gib mir in dieser schnellen Zeit
Irgendwas das bleibt
Gib mir einfach nur 'n bisschen Halt
Und wieg mich einfach nur in Sicherheit
Hol mich aus dieser schnellen Zeit
Nimm mir ein bisschen Geschwindigkeit
Gib mir was
Irgendwas, das bleibt
Auch wenn die Welt den Verstand verliert
Das hier bleibt unberührt
Nichts passiert
Gib mir 'n kleines bisschen Sicherheit
In einer Welt in der nichts sicher scheint
Gib mir in dieser schnellen Zeit
Irgendwas das bleibt
Gib mir einfach nur 'n bisschen Halt
Und wieg mich einfach nur in Sicherheit
Hol mich aus dieser schnellen Zeit
Nimm mir ein bisschen Geschwindigkeit
Gib mir was
Irgendwas, das bleibt

anywhere is
I walk the maze of moments
But everywhere I turn to
Begins a new beginning
But never finds a finish
I walk to the horizon
And there I find another
It all seems so surprising
And then I find that I know
​
You go there you’re gone forever
I go there I’ll lose my way
If we stay here we’re not together
Anywhere is
The moon upon the ocean
Is swept around in motion
But without ever knowing
The reason for its flowing
In motion on the ocean
The moon still keeps on moving
The waves still keep on waving
And I still keep on going
I wonder if the stars sign
The life that is to be mine
And would they let their light shine
Enough for me to follow
I look up to the heavens
But night has clouded over
No spark of constellation
No Vela no Orion
The shells upon the warm sands
Have taken from their own lands
The echo of their story
But all I hear are low sounds
As pillow words are weaving
And willow waves are leaving
But should I be believing
That I am only dreaming
To leave the tread of all time
And let it make a dark line
In hopes that I can still find
The way back to the moment
I took the turn and turned to
Begin a new beginning
Still looking for the answer
I cannot find the finish
It’s either this or that way
It’s one way or the other
It should be one direction
It could be on reflection
The turn I have just taken
The turn that I was making
I might be just beginning
I might be near the end
