SEE YOU THERE

He lives in the north, She lives in the south
He creates dreams, She listens to the dreams
And both of them, they work on something else
So it’s
They meet on the road, They join a few pieces
That's what matters,That piece of road together
And there is where the magic comes
Same time, same motion
She sleeps at night, He does it in the morning
He writes, he speaks, She reads, she listens
So it’s...
Like opposite poles
They bring what they need
And you don’t know why
But you enjoy them
She sleeps at night, He does it in the morning
He writes, he speaks, She reads, she listens
See You There...


A GIRL IN A HAT

There’s a girl in a hat
Showing tricks with her hands
for a hungry crowd
She isn’t bad
Open up your eyes
Let’s see what you see
They just have to try
And back again and again
They’ve just seen in her hands
what is or what should be
She shows and she hides
They must bet
It’s a natural reaction
Give them a chance
That girl is a revelation maybe
It’s fantasy maybe it’s real
It’s a mystery what’s going on
They don’t know what
She might do with that
Open your eyes
They must bet...
A man in a white coat wants to know
He cannot believe it's true
He wants to uncover the magic of it
He says she is a fake
No way
She smiles and moves her hands
Drawing circles in the air
She says
and now the magical touch
(and snaps her fingers)
Reason does not let you see
Close your eyes and open your mind...
...open your mind



SEVENTEEN

Like a bird, like a song
Coming out from nowhere
A feeling growing maybe for this once
It comes to me, like the song
That i’ll never let go
You told me you’re ready for me
Have a dream, live your dream
Everlasting time to go
And tell everybody
What they should care about
With a song that we call a love song
We could dream and never forget
Because those days are to come
Take your dreams and sail away
After the night we'll never dream again
Dream again
Will we ever dream again?
Have a dream...
Someday we’ll try
One day you’ll find your own way
I should trust in my own way
Dream my dreams or i would forget them
Even when i’ve been sad or grey
Keep smiling and believe again
Seventeen years we’ve left behind


BACK ON TIME
 

They don’t know my way in the world   
They’re waitin’ for a chance to say you’re wrong   
Squeezin’ time, hard work all the way
Gettin’ bored through the day   
Masquerades, sunglasses, make-up
A lot of friendly smiles and flattering words   
Spittin’ lies    
They don’t mean what they say   
Gettin’ weary through the day   
Free will   
That’s the way
Time is now   
Back on time is better than   
Holding on to that game   
Gotta move on  to get back on time   
It’s better than a second chance   
Sick of them, sick of playing that game   
Wasted time through the day   
Free will...
They still don’t know my way in the world   
Safety chains, your back against a wall   
Spittin’ lies they don’t mean what they say   
Gettin’ weary along the way   
Free will...


WAITING FOR THE BLINDNESS TO END

She used to tell him about her dreams
Things to do and places where to
Give a chance one more chance to each other
And now another day goes by
At anytime it will be late
She’s still waiting for the blindness to end
Dream alone day by day
She would like to go away
Because it’s hard when no one is there to listen
And now another day goes by...
She tried to tell, she tried to please
She changed her way Can’t you see?
It’s gettin’ hard to recover her
Now she runs to stand alone
Crying and screaming by the docks
Feeling all she gave was for nothing
And now another day goes by...


AS MUCH AS WE CAN

A dream is gone feeling time is wasted
Every time it comes straight to the heart
All the times we give a chance   
Every time we're on the way   
Is closer to being what it means
Now raise a feeling
As much as we can
Before the last of our dreams flies away
Now choose a word just you and i will know
Something new, we never heard before
It's time to see what we knew from the start
You know when dreams come true, life’s real
Now raise the feeling
As much as we can   
Before the last of our dreams flies away
If i’m right or wrong
The answers wait behind that door
When you thought it was done   
Then it came back to you   
Cause there's a reason for everything   
Who’s gonna steal your dreams?   
Now raise these feelings
As much as we can   
Before the last of our dreams flies away


WIDE

I've Been There So Many Times Before     
I Have Walked That Road You Say Is Yours   
Cause It Was Me Who Wrote All That You Heard Before       
Don't Think I'm Wrong     
Every Time You Go
I Return From Every Place You Still Don't Know     
Every Time You Say You Know
Take A Look Instead Of Thinking All Is Done     
A Tale Full Of Sense And A Smooth Talker   
You’ll Get Quite Simple And Confused Out Of The Scene
The Greatest And Deepest Mind Is Not Without Mistakes
Take A Trip Around The World
Leave Some Space For That You Need To Understand
Before You Waste Your Time     
Before You Make Them Laugh   
Or You Will Feel Lost   
A Tale Full Of Sense...


I NEVER KNEW

I don’t know what the reason is
I don’t know what to say
I don’t know if i was wrong before
Seems it goes on and never ends
I don’t know why The reason
To keep faith so strong
I never wanted to say what you didn’t want to hear
Be in peace is to stay alive   
I tried before and i never found a reason enough
While i was confused looking the wrong way
When i look back at all the ways i've been missing you
I never knew you were there if we missed a chance   
Missing you before i knew you   
I was building a perfect world
Waiting for the moment to say
Those words saved in my heart   
I tried before and i never found a reason enough   
While i was confused looking the wrong way   
When i look back...
Yes i know the words to say
  

SELFSAME

Saturday morning   
Air full of essence    
It wakes up with you   
Fresh and clear like it was the first time   
Put your feet on the ground and start moving on   
Look at all this music
Waiting behind the glass   
Someone on the radio says how it works today   
A new melody comes to you
We have to move fast
Meet you in the park    
Show me what you’ve brought for us
Rounded in bright colours we will write what it was   
Listen (to) what your heart means   
I'd swear today’s the day   
I can see it reflected in your eyes   
It’s like a promise
Before the end of the day     
We'll reach higher   
What are the great things we can do?   
Take me into the song
Show me the stories it tells
Let me ride with the waves   
For sure they will say how we can do it   
Look at all this music...


HEARTBEAT OF LIFE

It’s amazing how a simple thing   
Can change your life in a thousand ways   
It’s amazing how it makes us feel   
The greatest hits in life are the smallest things   
Music is the word   
Music is the way   
That’s the way we love   
It’s a life’s heartbeat   
It’s the heartbeat of life
