Because you are not here anymore, an empty space surrounds us where do we go now, where do we go now? You run on ocean waves, you are beautiful sunlight what are we looking for, what are we looking for now we all rise in the shining light shining light we all breathe in the shining light shining light Rain falls hard in this silent night, the silence is all that we can feel the night starts like an empty heart ... in an empty heart You are here by our side, watching the days through your child’s eyes we watch the line where the sun loves the sea we all live in the shining light shining light we don’t die in the shining light shining light

back to life 04:32
It was a rainy day when I saw a tiny light I was alive Vibrations made me stronger and the sound blew away years of pain I’ve heard bombs and felt history’s fear The sound was low, the heart was stoned But now, the voice is getting louder This beautiful living sound is coming back to life And I will testify, history is a lie The day I finally saw the light the sound of freedom was loud and clear but fear was still strong in the air we are infinite rising from the darkness ‘cause I can testify, we are one

15 days 03:28
For fifteen days, we go back in time years have passed our smiles remain the same Same old jokes same old ocean with us running in the blue I still laugh with you We know where to go - we know the right way we just laugh and jump - walking on the long road to the east Life love and soul (choir) for fifteen days Respect Love and Joy (choir) for fifteen days Peace love and Sun (choir) for fifteen days Life love and soul (choir) for fifteen days fifteen days Fifteen days we haven’t changed at all hangin’ out from Irish Pub to music club fifteen days or two days, my friend forever running against time, we just smile We know where to go - we know the right way we just laugh and jump - walking on the long road to the sun Life love and soul (choir) for fifteen days Respect Love and Joy (choir) for fifteen days Peace love and Sun (choir) for fifteen days Life love and soul (choir) for fifteen days fifteen days

time 03:19
Time, flowers lost in vain in the rain, rain falls hard I’m lost in the rain Time, light falls on my skin in the sunset, I’m sun drenched walking through that door Take me back, to the south to the river where our life began Take me back, to that sinking car where my life was saved Time, lights from the rainbow I walk in the rain, backwards to lead my mind astray Miles, maybe millions of miles to run for you and I chasing a dream We won’t be afraid to see what we have done Take me back to the Sinai the desert where I’ve spoke to the earth Take me back to that discoteque to the nightlife on the island that I love
5.
Queen of the night I can see your reflection in the water before me Queen of the night your light is coming to my eyes and it shines on and on Queen of the street Queen of the world Queen of the night With the stars around you I know who you are Rising queen wind is your messenger, it brings all that surrounds me Rising queen from your black height, with your hypnotic light in my eyes Rising queen with an unknown side and your light is running, and floating and flowing, under my eyes Queen of the street Queen of the world Queen of the night With the stars around you I know who you are Queen of the street Queen of the world Queen of the night I wanna see the unknown side I wanna touch the light I wanna see the unknown side

just because 02:34
Time can’t change the way I see you even as you’re getting old and I’m getting old I’ll always be by your side An opera melody you love, through the old radio sings like the gentle rays of spring sunshine I hear your voice, I see you smile like a beautiful light Thank you mom, thank you dad for being so amazing even if sometimes, our voices get loud, unnecessarily loud Just because of you I am Just because of you I am

The sphere turns, the sphere rolls spinning in the emptiness eyes closed, eyes opened on the endless ocean of time a child cries a soldier dies into the circle, or out of it. Drums play, the heart beats wild, on and on music’s over music lives in the heart of our soul love to live, live to die, nothing dies in the circle, or out of it Mother, did you know nothing’s real there is no end Father, did you know nothing’s real it’s a dream Tide’s return, passions burn, fire turns into desire It happens once it happens twice it’s just melting ice Ice age or cold eyes are seasons in the circle, or out of it
8.
I’ll go home, go back home in the sunset, daylight says goodbye I’m back home, home sweet home leaves are falling, dancing beauties in the wind it’s all so quiet, so real it’s all so silent, in the night Empty streets, narrow minds gorgeous fields of gold Look ahead life won’t die we are endless bright light Immagine no heaven Immagine only sky No differences, no time it’s all so quiet, so real it’s all so silent, in the night “Light thoughts” come to my head like butterflies over hurricanes Look ahead life don’t die we are endless bright light Immagine no heaven Immagine only sky No differences, no time

joy 02:58
I’m waving my arms to say goodbye There is nothing to do, nothing to say say bye bye, bye bye, my soul won’t die My love is floating free in the air just shake your body, free your mind say bye bye, bye bye, I don’t wanna cry Joy, pride and Joy - Love and Joy ... joy walk on flowers, breathe in mountain air ‘cause there’s everything but joy ‘cause there’s everything but joy You’re waving your arms to say goodbye nothing’s written, they will never say that say bye bye, bye bye, your soul won’t die Light like angels we can fly no mountain can hide bad eyes say bye bye, bye bye, flying we’re not gonna cry Joy ... pride and joy - Love and Joy ... Joy Walking on grass breathing in love running in the wind trying to be free free with your joy pride and joy, walk in flowers breathe in mountain air ‘cause there’s everything but joy ‘cause there’s everything but joy

two wings 03:47
She is standing in her living room silently by the window close to the wall Just a leaf, floating in the air floating sensually on autumn wings She is looking through the window a dreaming girl too kind to see In the spring she will always run with me step by step with no more vipers in the grass You need what I need - You are who I am You make me feel real - You make dream here We were made somewhere far from the dark I can close my eyes singing and looking at the light and feel the beautiful things you say to me while leaves keep falling slowly and silently on the grass At a train station waiting for a smiling heart my body is painted by red sunset Dirt on my skin, dreams in my eyes, floating words in the sky Day after day, hour after hour, who could write this song? I need what you need - I am who you are You make me feel real - you make me sing dear I’m gonna sing the sky

blood and I 03:33
It’s the season of emotions tears are leaving my eyes leaves and flowers are growing up bright sun rises in the sky Little birds are singing flying from earth to the sky I know they can’t be mine I’ll spend my days learning to fly Take that highway to the sky Little angel lift my wings to fly Take a look deep in my heart and let the piper be your guide in the sky Sun is rising in the east it looks like a rider on his horse the moon is so high in the sky always bright like a divinity It’s the season of devotion to the sad book written with blood So please stay here by my side Please don’t leave this heart deep in the sea Take that highway to the sky Little angel lift my wings to fly Take a look deep in my heart and let the piper be your guide in the sky
