1. One More Time

It's the beginning of the end – or just the end of the beginning... now pending
Restless, hear my words are bouncing back, it seems they found no home
I'm still here after all of this
Walk away with dignity and we'll remember what it used to be

Play that song just one more time
We'll bring back memories of kingdoms in the sun
I'll paint from memory your face, my love

Is this the time of grand illusion, war and endless fights?
I watch them all from here – you know it's killing me

Now there is a new pope every year and borders don't hold true
Take me back in time – what's a honest man to do?

Play that song just one more time
We'll bring back memories of kingdoms in the sun
I'll paint from memory your face, my love

Time and place for everyone under the sun

Now no more words from this old pen and no more speech to follow
Said and done, now fast approach the 1900
One last round, a toast to us, I won't look back
Now change we must, move on...

Play that song just one more time
We'll bring back memories of kingdoms in the sun
I'll paint from memory your face, my love

2. Love Is The Only Answer

I was there in the beginning, I will be the last to leave
And I?m moving thru the ages with the comfort of 'God?s speed'
There is no such thing as perfect, so I might apologize
That I didn?t see the darkness in your eyes

I?m a man with many colours, I?m a man of many names
I?m a rebel and a teacher. I am no one just the same
If I give away the answers, you have questions put on hold
But I didn?t see the weakness in your soul...
Love is the only answer – Love?s what you feel
In the end you can invest in love but never ask for payback

I?ve been traveling every roadside. I?ve been sailing every sea
I?ve been circling like an orbit around that cosmic Christmas tree
You think science is a fact, but it?s just a childish game
Cause they never saw the greatness of the game.
In the end you can invest in love but never ask for payback

So craziness begin, on a cold rail straight to hell
There are 10 more rounds to go, we?re just waiting for the bell.
Not much time for smalltalk now, besides the hammer & the nail
Bring out the monsters from the shadows –?t never fails
-"Where did all the goodness go? – I feel alone"
„Suddenly they?re just crawling out like from under a stone"

Love is the only answer – Love is what you feel
In the end you can invest in Love – but never ask for payback – no Jack

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole
It?s like the world just collapsed in this space.
If you look for a trace of redemption – You?re not likely to find it in this place

I?ve always looked for good in everybody. I?ve seen so many places under the sun.
Now – bail me out or let me down. It?s just you and me and time
I?m a king who lost his crown. I bid you bread and wine!

I always hoped that love was in your eyes. Now what a sacrifice to find out if I was right.
Now bail me out or let me down. It?s just you and me and time.
I?m a king who lost his crown. I bid you bread and wine!

Where did all the goodness – where did all the Love go?
Where is all the kindness – can love find a home?
First you build me up – then break me donwn
I don?t want your money – I just want your time.
World is getting older now! World is getting colder now!
Egos getting bigger – It?s a playground for the wicked!
No one is really listening – No room for the reasoning!
The cash-mashine just opened up it?s jaws & now it?s giggling.

Look when you stand on the brink of that dark hole
It?s like the world just collapsed in this space.
If you look for a trace of redemption – You?re not likely to find it in this place

I was there in the beginning. I will be the last to leave
You?ve been told so many times before that the truth will set us free.
But still you fabricate your dreams – upon greed and lust and fame.
Bring shame upon your name – it?s so damn hard to elevate.
If I speak to you with clarity and read me back alright.
So many words may go like shafts of light – Into the darkest night.
There?s no way out of here!

3. Trading My Soul

Don't tell me I'm dying... got no time for grief
Don't open that door – now let me go back to sleep.
I'm just in a phase of fading, I?m left here trading my soul
I'm spinning that big black hole
On borrowed wings; nor flesh, nor skin
We drift like feathers in wind

Not the end, but I sense it is near
I'm in limbo between earth and sky
I can see all your houses from here
But don't you tell me that this is dying

The walls... the carpets... the curtains... they cloud the room
I'm left here with no ticket, but I bet we're leaving soon
I'm just in a phase of fading, I?m left here trading my soul
I'm spinning that big black hole
On borrowed wings; nor flesh, nor skin
We drift like feathers in wind

Not the end, but I sense it is near
I'm in limbo between earth and sky
I can see all your houses from here
But don't you tell me that this is dying

4. The Sum Of No Reason

Red sails in the morning – Black smoke?s here to cloud the sun.
On target without a warning – No shelter – nowhere to run
They promise a piece of heaven – We?ll „sit by the side of kings"
Now, looking like a crash-test dummy – Or a bird with broken wings

You don?t know who sent you here – You can?t see them pull the strings
I bet they?ve a damn good reason – I hope there is someone listening
I hope what they say is true – That God can see thru souls of men
And all the blood upon your window will be like teardrops in the rain

Black smoke rolling in and cloud the sky.
Didn?t mommy tell you now that big boys never cry?
No one?s getting out of here alive.
Dropped down in the frying pan – together we will fry.

Takes a lot of strength to stay insane.
This is just the trail of death and I?m the bird of prey.
I won?t hold my breath for peace to come.
This is just the devils backyard and God is on the run.

Red rivers moving gently – Like mothers shed silent tears.
Gods angels are swimming upstreams – Left singing to silent ears.
They promised a place in heaven – We?d „walk by the side of Gods"
But we?re still here with fractured wings – So you?ll tell me what are the odds?

Heaven is a place where you can rest your feet.
Heaven is a place where wealthy people meet.
We can sell you Heaven – to the price of pain.
Line up when you can – cause prices go insane

6. Life In Motion

You can call me dreamer – You can call me plain.
A tiny bit of sunshine in between the driving rains.
You can call me father – You can cal me son.
A little bit of yesterday & future wrapped in one.
I am the provider – I'm the president.
I am the forgiver here – thru time and time again.

We are life in motion – with our chunk of time.
Trembling in our hands – we wait for miracles.

I am just a schoolboy – I am innocense.
I am just a lonely kid behind that garden fence.
I'm the voice of reason – I'm the scared soul.
I'm eternal fire and your shelter from the cold.

We are life in motion – with our chunk of time.
Trembling in our hands we wait for miracles.

We are life in motion – with our chunk of time.
This years model blue eyed son – just waiting down the line.
Sailing the high ways of the sun – we are waiting for the harvest.

I am right beside you when you dream alone.
Send you skies of comfort when in middle of a storm.
Look and see the bottom of that endless hole.
I'm right there to send three words to save your soul.
Sailing the high ways of the sun – we are waiting for the dawn.
And the harvest of our dreams.

I am right beside you when you dream alone.
Send you skies of comfort when in middle of a storm.
Look and see the bottom of that endless hole.
I'm right there to send three words to save your soul.
I am right beside you when you dream alone.

I'm the voice of summer – now won't you ride the wave?
I am life in motion & the laugher on the scale.
If you take me seriously – I'll take you serious too.
Ride together into the sunset, that's all that we can do.

You can call me dreamer – You can call me plain.
A tiny bit of sunshine in between the driving rains.
You can call me father – You can call me son.
A little bit of yesterday & future wrapped in one.

We are life in motion – with our chunk of time.
Trembling in our hands we wait for miracles.
Down the line – I am the forgiver!
I'm the voice of reason – I'm the sacred soul.
I'm the voice of summer won't you take a ride.

It's like coming home – coming home again.
It's like coming home – coming home again.
The further we go – the closer we come.
There's one chance for everyone.
One love – one heart – one chance.
The higher we climb – the more we see.
Lands and visions above the treetops.
One love – One heart – One chance.
It's like coming home – coming home again.
It's like coming home – coming home again.
