you and i
03:43

i can't stand (i can't stand)
thinking of you without me;
do you think that's out of line?
i can't stop (i can't stop)
thinking of you and me;
i swear it's not on purpose anymore.
just don't look back
because i don't know where we are
and i don't think that I'll be here tonight.
just don't think twice.
i know i won't think even once
and i can't wait to close my eyes with you.
you and i, you and i.
you and I, you and i.
you, when i close my eyes
my dreams go wild: I'm sitting here with you.
you and i, you and i.
i can't sleep (i can't sleep)
and i can't think clearly lately;
i think i know what's on my mind.
i don't feel (i don't feel) any way that I've
ever felt before.

dream
05:42
|

|
do you remember when we met that day
in the land of grey
and i promised we would go stargaze
despite all the rain?
but we found a magic creature's nest:
a big mushroom den,
and we learned to dance the night away β
the stars gazing instead.
close your eyes, get the troubles off your mind,
have a dream tonight.
close your eyes, get the troubles off your mind,
have a dream before we wake up.
share a dream with me
at the magic place where i met you.
let's share a story before we wake up.
share a dream with me
at the magic place where i met you.
let's share a story and let's share a night tonight.
open your eyes and look around:
you're where the wild and calm unite.
open your mouth and sing aloud
to the music of the night.
do you remember we were taught what's real
in the land of dreams
by our friends on top of yellow trees
and the elder that leads?
we were taught how the world began,
the meaning of life,
justice, truth, beauty, good, and bad,
as well as to dance.

silence
05:12
|

|
silence exploring the sky
foreign β it used to be like that.
long before we arrived,
she was all that there was.
she forgot what it's like
shouting out loud at the clouds.
now she learns once again
to whom the world belongs.
stretching her arms
over the yearning ground.
oh, let's be like the silence:
let's stretch our arms over the ground.
let's be like the silence.
silence awake for the night
exotic β it's breathing in the stars.
oh, let's be like the silence:
let's breathe in the stars you and i.
let's be like the silence.
silence, it's dreaming of life.
it slowly unravels in the wild.

the end of time
04:46
|
|||
|
the end of time came rushing through the night.
the morning that i finally figured out where i am
was the last morning there ever was,
and the whispers that the wind brought cried
that our words were never combined.
come with me and you'll finally see
that you can forever be free.
here i am, i'm waiting for the moment when i find
i've been waiting for the moment in your eyes.
oh, take me back to the end of time;
won't you take me back?
the end of time waited for you and i.
whenever i look back at that moment
i can't help but think that you don't remember a thing.
come with me and you'll finally see
that you can forever be free.
here i am, i'm waiting for the moment when i find
i've been waiting for the moment in your eyes.
oh, take me back to the end of time;
won't you take me back?
and when time had slid astray
it made its way - its unobtrusive way β
to the night, so young once more.

rain
06:52
|

|
a glimmer of white candles shining faintly
to the right of an open morning window
facing east into the blue sky.
a whispering chant coming from the raindrops
falling from the candle to the pool of thoughts
collected by the ground
in the shape of a cloud
that pours its thoughts to the ground.
i never wonder why the sky falls down
every time it's tired.
i never wonder what's looking down
when our thoughts reveal
all that remains.
i wonder about
the memories that we share inside of our minds:
do they remember us back?
i wonder why
the many moments that we shared in our minds
lie so far left behind.
so bright, covered by the moonlight,
the fire waits alone until the midnight
that reflects on you and i
and on everyone around the sky
that shines on the fire.
i never wonder why the sky falls down
when our thoughts reveal
all that remains.
i wonder about
the memories that we share inside of our minds:
do they remember us back?
i wonder why
the many moments that we shared in our minds
lie so far left behind.

sand
05:43
|
|||
|
when you walked around the dunes of time
for the first time (the first time),
they were watching with an eye of copper,
with a knife that cuts through sounds and glass
and sparkles purple and blue.
when you wander into the place
with the water (the water),
oh, listen to the waves of light,
of purple, purple light, and blue.
now the magic falls upon you
and you're blinded by the sight of sleep.
searching for a sign of life in the sand.
waiting for a sign of life in the sand.
when you wander into the place
with the leaves of marvel,
oh, listen to the waves of light,
of purple, purple light, and blue.

home
07:00
|
|||
|
close, but away,
thinking of a place of nothing:
it's often not easy to tell
which one it is.
so away,
caught between two webs of nothing.
it's always not easy to see
when one of them ends and the other begins.
it begins.
in the middle of the ocean, breathing out,
the wind has left behind
a fading sound stolen from a faraway land
sinking just as deep as once was wild.
never tell me why
it's so hard to find.
it's so hard to find.
walking day and night through the mountains
of the meadows of your heart.
listening to the echoes of a drowning voice
that can't be right.
never tell me why
it's so hard to find my way back home.
