Glory

how i will rise up
from the waters
where i've drowned
you will know me
you will see
your face
will light up
from the glory
that it's found
i am listening
you are hearing me

don't go
make your mind up
i've been down
far as can be
up until then my voice
it was caught up
up until then
i never could see

Glory

you'll find out
i am nothing
i might seem
it's not opened
so easily

don't go
make your mind up
i've been down
far as can be
up until then my voice
it was caught up
up until then
i never could see

and sometimes it happens
that you are friends and then
you are not friends
and friendship has passed
and whole days are lost
and among them
a fountain empties itself

and sometimes it happens
that you are loved and then
you are not loved
and love is past
and whole days are lost
and among them
a fountain empties
itself into the grass

and sometimes you want
to speak to her and then
you do not want to speak
then the opportunity has passed
your dreams flare up
they suddenly vanish

and also it happens that
there is nowhere to go and then
there is somewhere to go
then you have bypassed
and the years flare up and are gone
quicker than a minute
so you have nothing

you wonder if these things matter
and then as soon you begin to wonder
if these things matter
they cease to matter
and caring is past
and a fountain empties
itself into the grass

My Fly Away / 25 De Abril

Don't

don't fly
don't loose your feet
and if you feel dizzy
hang on to my arm
with you nails and your teeth

don't fly
don't be a ghost
what matters the most
is that you don't fly away

don't fly into the sea
stay awhile with me
there may be no other
day like today

so don't fly away

Fly

don't fly
like the africans drum
like the gipsy girl
who walks on the bridge
they make love to you
like i only wish i could do

so don't fly into the sea
stay awhile with me
there may be no other
day like today

so don't fly

My Fly Away / 25 De Abril

If We Want It

come
let's slip away
from this damn masqerade
just take my hand
and let me lead the way

[ hvorledes kan min
hva vi kaller for livskvalitet
beholdes eller bli høyere?
og livskvalitet går
overhodet ikke på hva man har
men hvordan man føler man
er og hvorledes det er
hva er det som gleder oss? ]

[ gone are the voices
that inspire fools
to look for love
where no love ever moves ]

It's Right

so
let's settle in
and do what lovers do
a wave of peacefullness
that shoots right through
if we want it, it's right

seems
every now and then
a dream comes true
the skies turns everything
from black to blue

now
maybe everything
we do is wrong
a simple story
turns into a song
if we want it
it's right

Quebramos

era eu a convencer-te de que gostas de mim
tu a convenceres-te de que não é bem assim
era eu a mostrar-te o meu lado mais puro
tu a argumentares os teus inevitáveis

eras tu a dançares em pleno dia
e eu encostado como quem não vê
eras tu a falar p'ra esconder a saudade
e eu a esconder-me do que não se dizia

afinal
quebramos os dois afinal
quebramos os dois

desviando os olhos por sentir a verdade
juravas a certeza da mentira
mas sem queimar de mais
sem querer extinguir o que já se sabia

eu fugia do toque como do cheiro
por saber que era o fim da roupa vestida
que inventara no meio do escuro onde estava
por ver o desespero na cor que trazias

Os Dois

era eu a despir-te do que era pequeno
tu a puxares-me para um lado mais perto
onde se contam histórias que nos atam
ao silêncio dos lábios que nos mata

eras tu a ficar por não saberes partir
e eu a rezar para que desaparecesses
era eu a rezar para que ficasses
tu a ficares enquanto saías

não nos tocamos enquanto saías
não nos tocamos enquanto saímos
não nos tocamos e vamos fugindo
porque quebramos como crianças

afinal
quebramos os dois afinal
quebramos os dois

é quase pecado que se deixa
quase pecado que se ignora

This Mess

can you hear them?
the helicopters?
i'm in new york
no need for words now
we sit in silence
you look me
in the eye directly
you met me
i think it's wednesday
the evening
the mess we're in

and the city sun

sets over me

night and day
i dream of making-love
to you now baby
love-making on-screen
impossible dream
and i have seen
the sunrise over the river
the freeway reminding
of this mess we're in

and the city sun

sets over me
