The note is sung the charm has found it's mark straight into their cold cold hearts a strange wind blows new memories from South to North Calling her away you you don't need to lose yourself between the silence and the strings you are everything yes then and only then you will understand you are everything Why did this melody rise so deep from under her skin if only she could see between the silence and the string she'd understand the measure of the man you you don't need to lose yourself between the silence and the strings you are everything yes then and only then you will understand you are everything outro

Old Wiemar 08:51
Old Weimar I remember the feeling in that lonely park Clandestine lovers we'd talk in the dark the sky the flowers witnesses stood to a love that would mean Nothing Your heart turns cold as steel Your eyes and your hands don't match the words that fall from your lips It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear I remember you told me our love was a tale of two spies in the snow in the wild in Old Wiemar two spies on the run from the man with the gun I better run run run from your lies Your heart turns cold as steel Your eyes and your hands don't match the words that fall from your lips It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear I waited in vain for your love to grow to nurture some kindness a seedling to sow the music just stopped but you went on with the show' my heart wasn't in it for you anymore Your heart turns cold as steel Your eyes and your hands don't match the words that fall from your lips It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear I remember the girl so eager to learn your only desire is to teach her of fire but like a child that's learned before I won't let you play with my heart anymore Your heart turns cold as steel Your eyes and your hands don't match the words that fall from your lips It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear What do you want form me It's not what I want to hear

She is the river she is the flow within her substance everybody comes and goes everybody comes and goes take time to stand still you'll feel the love You will feel the love di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di Sometimes she feels like clouds sometimes she feels like wind rippling the surface her secrets lie safe in the current that she she keeps She is the bringer of life and the bringer of the end and the bringer of love di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di di Can you feel the storm that is brewing from all the cardinal points the vortex is raising its' ugly head go to the river and ask for protection and guidance it will show you love it will show you love I'm tired of waiting for the rest of you to decide I'm tired of waiting for the rest of you to come to my aid I don't want to go to war.

Far From Home For so Long we've been drifting far from home For so long we don't know where we belong Little bird you who flies with such ease and grace and freedom take my arms and give them wings so that I might fly over this barbed wire Little bird you who sees everything can you tell me are my loved ones still alive? For so Long we've been drifting far from home For so long we don't know where we belong Little bird you who flies the seven mansions in the blue skies take my words and give them wings so that you can fly them to those who are still listening Little bird you who sees everything can you tell me are my loved ones still alive? For so Long we've been drifting far from home For so long we' don't know where we belong we've been drifting far from home we' don't know where we belong Cause since I've had to run I have lost my Father my mother my brothers my sisters my neighbours my friends my family my uncles my aunts I have lost my home I have lost my school I have lost my town My country my identity my nationality my education I've lost everything we've been drifting far from home we' don't know where we belong we've been drifting far from home we' don't know where we belong For so long we've been drifting far from home for so long we' don't know where we belong

about

The title song from this album was inspired by all those thousands of brave souls who risked everything by running from wars and persecution to try and find better lives for themselves and their families. May your gods grant you the peace and prosperity we all deserve.
