"Here is my secret. It is very simple: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.."- Antoine de Saint Exupéry

German

Ich dreh mich um Dich/I am revolving around you – Herbert Grönemeyer

“When you are fishing in turbid waters and it is dripping in your soul
When all the secrets are betrayed and you feel lost

I am revolving around you, I am revolving around you,
I imagine the bad look
I will take care of your tears, i will overpass all the tortures and all the sufferings
Even when you whine and whip yourself, even when you fight, when you get ripped
When everything gets darker, i will  lead you through the night

When the compass shows only heaven and hell, when your senses become blurry
When you can’t forgive yourself, nobody won’t extinguish your fire

I am revolving around you, I am revolving around you,
I imagine the bad look
I will take care of your tears, i will overpass all the tortures and all the sufferings
Even when you whine and whip yourself, even when you fight, when you…

Peacock’s Pride

peacocks_pride_by_culpeo_fox-d4b7vdi

“I was called Wykeham  Thousand Eyes
In the land of shadows
And truly thousand eyes
I bring with me

So don’t you stare at me like that,
you verminous creature,
or you will miserably
lose your eyesight.

Nobody

Nobody except for myself
Knows how I feel
And it’s fine like this
For I can’t stand lies
It hurts to wait
For fantasies that never have time
To get life and exist
That’s why I never let go
Of my own shadow
Me, myself and I
That’s all I will ever have
My only balance.

Music for My Heart


Friedensengel / Angel of Peace

512

Illuminating presence over the city
guardian while Munich sleeps
with his olive branch bringing the blessings
of the Angel of Peace

Herbert Grönemeyer – Was Soll Das


Clueso – Zu schnell vorbei / Over too soon

“I could hardly start,
Days stuck on me.
I come back
Now it’s the other way round.
Spread the sand in my shoes
In my room.
What can I do,
The memories always come for me,
Can’t resist.
I wanna get what feels good,
And that for ever.
Over too soon.
Tell me how fast
The time passed again?
I enjoy the moment.
Over too soon.
How quickly it happens
It’s impossible.
Over too soon!
I break away,
Here it looks the same way as yesterday.
I’ve got to ge away from here
I leave nothing behind.
I wanna experience more than
Only recalling.
I’ve seen enough
Who dreams is sleeping.
Today for it only counts for me
If something new is generated.
I wanna get what feels good,
And that for ever.
It’s madness,
‘Cos I can’t tell
How everthing runs faster
Nothing stops these lines.
Wanna have no doubt.
Draw thousands of comparisons.
When war the best time
Too much that remains forgotten.
I hardly dare closing my eyes,
Don’t wanna miss something in future
Wanna remain wakefully and enjoy
Don’t  wanna  think of tomorrow anymore
Live every moment,
Today is the day we’re gonna talk about later.”
