CATFISH MAN

you once were a catfishman

with only the blues

living on the shore of an ancient land

with jewels of music in the sand

you had no wife just a wooden shack

and an old guitar

a thunder from L.A.

was coming down your way

a midnight lightning stroke the sky...

you just had only a short time to live

shining bright like a star

so many people you met on your way

still wonder today how you are -

hi James

now you are no more here

just flown away

but from high above I still hear you laughing:

"it was a short but sure a groovy time !"

you just had only a short time to live

shining bright like a star

so many people you met on your way

still wonder today how you are -

hi James

LET YOUR LOVING

it's just my simple way

to tell you how I feel

my mind is filled with emty thoughts

and awful dreams

I've been away a thousand years

it almost seems

the only enemy around is me

who would have kwown?

you're back on my mind again!

let your loving

put me on an eagle's wing

let your memories

be my guide to set me free

I have been travelling

all around this lonely place

trying to find some answers

and some different ways

to live a life not to far from reality

the only enemy around is me

and who else is there?

maybe you too!

let your loving

put me on an eagle's wing

let your memories

be my guide to set me free

set me free now!

THIS IS JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS

there are colors everywhere

if you really want to see them

and the smell of the earth can be stronger

than your little mind might be used to

so come on closer and move over here

this is just one of those days

when nothing seems to be alright

and we are caught in a sweet illusion

that feels like a dream

from another lifetime ...

('seen it all before)

have you seen the lights moving down

a lonely man's face in the rain?

have you heard his heart crying

hidden behind the curtains of pain?

just come on closer and move over here

this is just one of those days

when nothing seems to be alright

and we are caught in a sweet illusion

that feels like a dream from another lifetime ...

- this is just one of those days!

CAUGHT IN A RAINBOW

it has been lonely

since you have been away

and all those memories

I've tried to put them away

but last night I have seen your face

in a dream of majestic grace

and it almost seemed:

you were caught in a rainbow

flying up high

your smiling face was there

just up in the sky!

I have been waiting

and things just felt not right

while I was praying

through many a lonely night

but last night I have seen your face

in a dream of majestic grace

and it almost seemed:

you were caught in a rainbow

flying up high

your smiling face was there

just up in the sky!

I'LL BE FREE

see the darkness fading away

watch the morning star

far away there's the dancing light

of a morning breeze

feel the tides of the evening wind

how they come and go

smell of night is almost around

and a bluebird sings:

I'll be free, baby why don't you join me?"

sitting on top of a rainbow

touch the sky above

"I am lost in the light of a daydream"

talking wood just smiles

flying with the midnight wind

touch a lonely star

silence rains into your loving heart

moon's just wispering:

"I'll be free, baby why don't you join me?"

misty clouds turning into rain of velvet tears

ev'ry human sorrow it will just disappear

we are riding on the waves of a new born sea

peace it will come for you and me!

"I'll be free, baby why don't you join me?"

(a little peace of mind is good enough for me!)

THOUSAND ANGELS

below me is the sea

above me is the night

the current carries me away

I don't know where

silently a thousand angels were in my mind

the seconds became years

I didn't know how it could happen

I only felt their kisses and tears

silently a thousand stars were in my brain

the winds had brought them just for me

and they felt like a loving rain

and they felt what it was like to be free

silently a thousand tears were in my eyes

the past was drowned in a rainbow sea

on the bottom there were a thousand lies

and I felt that the bottom was me

silently a thousand angels left my mind

they faded like the stars and the tears

and they left me sitting deaf and blind

in the dark grave of my fears

I really don't know where this is gonna take me

all I can see is just a dark night with a couple of stars

it sure does look unreal

and in front of me I see a shape

like a cloud

and there seems to be a strange kind of light inside of it

it looks like a crowd of angels, thousands of angels...

HOW CAN I LIVE LIKE THIS ?

like a tiny fish in the deep blue sea

I feel when I'm lonely filled with misery

like a hunted deer in an endless night

I feel when I''m without you searching for some light

dreary thoughts are surrounding me ev'rywhere I look

and no one's here to comfort me my blues is all around

like a lonely bird on a rainy day

I feel when my heart is aching nothing's left to say

Lord I know there must be some kind'a way to break through

Lord I know there must be some kind'a way to reach

you how can I live like this ?

like a hazy cloud in the deep blue sky

I feel when I'm isolated not understanding why

like a flikering star in a deep blue night

I feel when I'm far away tryin' to hide my inner light

dreary thoughts are surrounding me ev'rywhere I go

and no one's here to comfort me my blues is all around

Lord I know there must be some kind'a way to break through

Lord I know there must be some kind'a way to reach you

how can I how can I live like this ?

DO I HEAR YOU KNOCKING ?

do I hear you knocking

knocking on my door ?

you know I have been waiting

for quite some years

you had to go I know

something pulled you away

life had not been like it was before

(but can you still see me now ?)

do I hear you calling

calling out my name ?

do I feel your loving voice

suffering no more pain ?

you had to go I know

heaven pulled you away

life had not been like it was before

(I still remember you saying these words:

"I'm gonna open up your funny little door !")

do I hear you calling

calling out my name ?

would you stay and join me

playing out this game ?

(" Hey look out who's hiding behind that little door ?")

do I hear you calling - yes I hear you calling

play on brother play on

ANOTHER SECRET OF THE SEA

burning sunlight on the ocean

and I am sitting

on top of a stone

with a lonely afternoon

but I can hear the winds arising

humming all about

another secret of the sea

wispering mountain tells me about the past

my tears are still burning

with the sun in my eyes

and naked feelings on the shore

but I can see the waves a-coming

carrying within

another secret of the sea

glittering ocean swaying so peacefully

with all your fish in there

please help me to heal my soul

and stop me from crying

but night is falling down on me

becoming slowly

another secret another secret of the sea

PEOPLE, PEOPLE

lost in a midnight dream caught in a silverstream

touched by a thousand sounds I couldn't feel the ground

drowned in a cristal sea born out of my fantasy

while green turned to red insects moved my head

I am tired of fighting

it's a waste of time anyway

people, people hear what I say

the world needs a lot of love here and today

people, people don't you quit instead

the future's just only one moment ahead

bound to the deep blue sky startears in my eyes

nowhere feeling save one foot in my grave

torn in a magic lake I thought I'd never awake

while my head opened wide and I could taste the lights

I am tired of fighting

it's a waste of time anyway

people, people hear what I say

the world needs a lot of love here and today

people, people don't you quit instead

the future's just only one moment ahead

right on

people, people we need a lot of love today

to heal this world

...AND SAY HELLO TO JAMES

I think about the times when you were my chieftain

and how you tried to teach me to play this guitar

and all your lovely music felt just like a blue rain

you said: "while you play just be what you are,

while you are playing just be what you are"

I think about the times when you left California

you had to move to a place without no name

and if there is someone who plans to be around there

then please don't you forget to say hello to James

send my love and say hello to James

life it just moves up and down

it was not much different

when you were around

but some times I wish

I could talk to you

not only through this earphones

but man to man...

I think about the times when you left California

you had to move to a place without no name

and if there is someone who plans to be around there

then please don't you forget to say hello to James

send my love and say hello to James

say hello

SACRED LOVE

sacred love pulsating in my veins

the moon has drowned into a silver sea

and we fly on a blackbird's wing

through a star filled summer night

deep down in my heart

I hear the creatures of the ocean

reminding me of the ancient war of minds

deep down in the valley of my longing soul

I see clouds of angels

touching gently the inner shore of my mind

sacred love flows from the horizon

into my skin golden and sweet

sacred love surrounding the Earth

the sky flows slowly towards her heart

and I am waiting in the wormhole of my mind

trying to grasp that little miracle

(I wonder if you've seen it too - yeah you have)

way up in the clouds of my past

I see my childhood movie dripping from my fingers

but I am a grown up child now

just trying to raise that frequency of love

sacred love flows from the horizon

into my skin golden and sweet

(let me celebrate with you)

FLYING BLUE ANGEL

you said you were looking for some peace of mind

but I think you were just playing the old game of love

the tears you cried no more will they hurt you

and old burning pain will suddenly heal in your soul

please look around and you will finally see her

she's standing right next to you shining so bright

with emerald eyes and her golden hair waving

a flying blue angel is standing by your side

just go ahead and trust this new born angel

and take her hand and learn to fly

before you leave just greet this blue angel

and let her take you up in the sky

you said you were trying to find the future

but I think that all is hidden within your mind

the past that you lived it no more will hurt you

and old longing love will return into your live

please look around and you will finally see her

she's standing right next to you shining so bright

with emerald eyes and her golden hair waving

a flying blue angel is standing by your side

just go ahead and trust this new born angel

and take her hand and learn to fly

before you leave just greet this blue angel

and let her take you up in the sky

HATHOR

Hathor !

please open up your door

I'm coming down from high

to see your lovely angels fly

The Milky Way

I've seen its lovely play

just pearls of love and precious gold

they are never going to grow old

See me fly !

in a "Mer - ka - ba" filled sky

and echoes of the sun

please bring me to the only one

that I love, that I need that I adore with my longing heart

She's my dear mother

waiting for her child

she's the love that I have

in my timeless dreams please let me come back

only when it pleases you

back into your life, back into your soul

back into your heart, back into your womb

I'm gonna see you soon

Hathor !

please open up your fancy door

you know I love you all my life

the old fashioned cosmic way

(help me getting this together)

Hathor !

I heard my love crying

down in your world

I'm trying to find a way

to dive down into her heart and into her soul

She's my dear mother ....

ELF

how strange to hear an Elf sing

how gently he whispers in the wind

how soft the answers of the trees and the birds

how sad to hear those long forgotten words

how strange to hear an Elf sing

between the notes I can see what he means

there is so much gentleness in him

even when he cries and he screams

I can see what he means

floating within the realm of a butterfly's dream

the world is quite different here

than it might seem

how strange to hear an Elf sing

your golden memory will live on deep within

and all your lovely music will be left down here to stay

and I will join you on a dragonfly sunny day, yes I will

have you seen an Elf somewhere ?

where we live they're rather rare

Elf's graves are all that I can see

looking a little bit like you and me

RAYS OF THE SUN

come take my hand

and lead me through the sand to the sea

don't turn around

just feel the rays of the sun in our heads

true love can wait

until the time is right

sure it's fun

to feel the rays of the sun in our head

sure it's fun

to feel the rays of the sun in our head

sing on brother

LITTLE MAN

I once was on your ship

you were taking me on this special trip

and we were moving so fast

with the right speed of imagination

and the liquid rhythm of time standing still

swayed inside my head

and the sky like a cat moving slowly around the Earth

made me touch your gentle smile

and it pulled me a little bit higher

then I saw a shimmering light

coming out of the wall purple, blue and white

it was you in an unexpected way

just trying to find me

and the liquid rhythm of time standing still

swayed inside my head

and the sky like a cat moving slowly around the Earth

made me touch your gentle smile

and it made me a little bit wiser

I say: "help me out little man,

take my hand

help me out little man,

you're the one for me ! "

SEA OF MEMORY

when you dive into the sea of old and lost memories

please make sure that the shore is far away

going down to the ground starfish will be all around

and they lead you to the ancient gate

just slip inside and you will remember

the golden unicorns that we used to ride

glide on the waves the old atlantean way

and all the siran music that we then used to play

will come back to you

down you go to the crystal town

and you even see some old friends around

they just wave their old "hello"

please step inside and you will remember

the golden unicorns that we used to ride

glide on the waves the old atlantean way

and all the sirian music that we then used to play

will come back to you

inside our water land let the mermaids take your hand

and dance just being free on the bottom of the sea

in a submarine of your mind you'll dive

into another time you will arrive

and now you can feel at last

there is no future and there is no past

in the sea of memory with dolphins ,whales and human beings

forever we will be alive, anew and free

MAJOR CHANGES

waking up today

a new world is just here to stay

I reach out for those dancing lights

they're coming right out of your eyes

please say these words again my friend

that love will save us in the end

I'm floating to the bottom of the sea

getting used to all the ships just above me

I don't know what time is gone

but anyway I don't mind it at all

some major changes came along my way

and here I'm sitting all alone

with all the other soldiers gone

they're looking for some dimmer lights

yeah this world had been turning bright

please say these words again my friend

that love will save us in the end

I'm floating to the bottom of the sea

getting used to all the ships just above me

I don't know what time is gone

but anyway I don't mind it at all

some major changes came along my way

some major changes

YOUR LOVE

your love is what I want now

your heart is what I need now

don't wait please try to communicate

I used to hide in my little room

didn't dare to walk out this door

until one day this girl came up to me

and she smiled at me through the window

with a voice so soft she said:

"hi my friend how come you're lonely

sitting here just feeling sad"

and now my room is far behind

in time and in distance

I am somewhere else and I'm someone else

'cause she smiled at me through the window

and with a voice so soft she said:

"hi my friend how come you're lonely

sitting here just feeling sad"'

'cause she smiled at me through the window

and with a voice so soft she said:

your love is what I want now

your heart is what I need now

don't wait please try to communicate

SAME OLD BLUES

same old blues

ain't no good news

in this twilight Galaxy there is nothing left for me

and not even an old love to loose

same old blues

same old pain

and a metal blue rain

and there is emptiness all around

and no life no more to be found

all my efforts seem to be in vain

same old pain

same old blues

ain't got nothing more to loose

and even my old Self is gone, just gone

it dissolved into the wind of the dawn

but I will have a new life to choose, so I say:

"goodbye blues, no more blues"

UNBORN LOVE

Like a lonely seagull I will fly up high

and my wishes around me will be like the clouds in the sky

Like a hungry raven I will prowl the night

and all my yearnings will suddenly turn into starlight

Unborn love it feels like I'm touching you from within

Unborn love I know I'll find you deep down in the valleys below

Like a peacock I will build my nest for you

on the roof of my hope I will pray with the morning dew

Like a blackbird who's flying through the wispering rain

I will sing my song of love just to comfort you

Unborn love it feels like I'm touching you from within

Unborn love I know I'll find you deep down in the valleys below

There are no reasons to believe that my love won't be born again

into this world just to meet me there

Unborn love........ my unborn love.

LOVE WAS IN THE AIR

I know it seems unreal the way you suddenly appeared

you stood there in a golden light and love was in the air

you stepped out of this dream dressed in a robe made of moonbeam

blue stars were shining ev'rywhere and love was in the air

I knew you had to leave but there was nothing here to grieve

you said that you'd always be there (to reach) and love was in the air

yes love was ev'rywhere your love was in the air

LOVING EYES

I'm sitting here with my thoughts all alone

it has been quite some time since 've been away from home

those feelings for you, I had no time to show

and when I wanted to, I knew I had to go

Loving eyes in front of me

loving eyes are watching me

loving eyes they want to say:

"Come back for those loving eyes !"

I can't keep my thoughts away from you

it's getting hard to know, what I'm gonna do

it seems I can't get you out of my mind

it feels like someone's watching me from behind

Loving eyes in front of me

loving eyes are watching me

loving eyes they want to say:

"Come back for those loving eyes !"

When I return I have to make sure

this is the love I've been looking for

when I come home to see you again

I'll show you my love too

Loving eyes in front of me

loving eyes are watching me

loving eyes they want to say:

"Come back for my love!"

Loving eyes in front of me

loving eyes are watching me

loving eyes they want to say:

"Come back for those loving eyes !"

QUESTIONS ARE ALL THAT'S LEFT FOR ME

From the ceiling of my room from the bottom of my tomb

something's moving towards me just a shadow of mem'ries

Through the dark veils of my daydreams things are no more what they seem

I've been travellin' for a long time to the borders of my mind

Will I be happy and free ? Will there be a lot of mis'ry ?

Questions are all that's left for me !

In the darkness of my nights I hear voices in the tides

wisp'ring softly about the past and the things that couldn't last

There were flowers life had brought me just to look for some dignity

but my little self so afraid made me hide out in the shade

Will I be happy and free ? Will there be a lot of mis'ry ?

Questions are all that's left for me !

THOSE SUMMERDAYS

when I look into your gentle eyes I see wings of butterflies

and the lights that dance around your face turn into a loving smile

we have been through so many things the tides of life were running wild

and now our love seems to end just here why do I feel like a hurting child ?

those summerdays are all over now I hear the autumn winds arise

the way you gaze at me these days somehow tells me,

it's time for you to fly

when I touch your sunburned skin I feel your soul a restless sea

and the taste of sweet old memories rerun and run away from me

we have been through some heavy times our love was taken by surprise

I didn't think that it could end like this but now it's time for our goodbyes

those summerdays .......

I wonder if my heart can heal from all the damage that's been done

those summerdays begin to reveal that the autum's soon to come

Made out of light

wake up funny old man
humanity you hold in your hands
please change your point of view
and let this small message come right through

get up sad old lady
humanity you hold in your hands
please grab the future that is so close
and only a few seconds away

I hear the ocean arise
and through an afternoon sky
the voice of wind starts to rise
and I am flying up high
and from the heart of the Earth
I hear a motherly sigh:
„the space all around me
is made out of light“

Spaceship Earth

twinkling stars are scattered all over the sky
the homes of a many millions of souls
while my mind it stops just asking why
they all seem so close tonight
and lights come closer from neighbour Galaxies
our brothers are not far away it now seems

I’m on a crystal spaceship called the Earth
help me if I fall into the endless space
I found out that this is just another birth
in the ocean of time

I ride on an eagle made out of light
and touch the wind with my midnight flight
I reach for heaven that opens up in my heart
I long for peace for every soul breathing like me
oh sweet night please take my blues away
and turn my future worries into toys from yesterday

I’m on a crystal spaceship called the Earth
help me if I fall into the endless space
I found out that this is just another birth
in the ocean of time

I live my life with a loving heart
and it hurts when we are not together
but merely drifting apart

Eagle flight

hello my friend
I haven’t seen you for some time it seems
or wasn’t it even in this lifetime
what do you think ?
remember how we struggled
there was war on the left side
and poverty on the right
those were hard days
we merely tried to survive, anyway

don’t you worry about the night
we’ll take an eagle flight
and celebrate the beauty in your heart
that’s where we’re gonna start from (this time)
to dive into a velvet sea
of ancient mysteries
please don’t you worry about tonight
we’ll gonna be alright

Rescue me

Watch a young man’s eyes
Looking down without a surprise
He’s been hurting for so long
In a world where’s so much wrong
He has been born into poverty
And there’s no chance for a change
He found himself at the wrong side of the world
Where nothing can be arranged for him
He’s got no future

„Won’t you come and rescue me“(he says)
„From this deserted place
Won’t you try and set me free
And start a new human race
Without hate and division (a feast of Oneness)“

Feel a young girl’s soul
She’s been living without no goal
But with a busy mind
Luxury has made her blind
She seems to be born without compassion
All she cares is herself
She’s been restless all her life
And her heart wants to scream it out loud

„Won’t you come and rescue me“(he says)
„From this deserted place
Won’t you try and set me free
And start a new human race
Without hate and division (a feast of Oneness)“

I don’t know

searching in the darkness for something new
waiting in the cold for something true
doing things as the days go by
try to find out where there is a lie

I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where can I stay ?
I don’t know

the pressure in my head is common
and days bring me discomfort
no way to tell you how I feel
I just don’t know what’s really real

I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where can I stay ?
I don’t know

the air is charged electricly
I know it feels sharp and threatening
nearly all the time I’m manic
looking around I see it boiling

I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where can I stay ?
I don’t know

Where I can be safe

her soft steps at night they lead down to the sea
with moonbeams of love she weaves her old memories
at night in my dreams she leaves softly her trace
a shadow of loneliness has coloured her sad eyed face

„a rain of tears within my heart
has caused my life to fall apart
I feel like I’m buried in a flesh coloured grave
please take me home where I can feel safe“

through the waves of the ocean she’s talking to the moon
whispering about ancient times that are coming back soon
I can hear her song yearning in an afternoon sky
and see the colours of her rainbow in a flock of birds passing by

„a rain of tears within my heart
has caused my life to fall apart
I feel like I’m buried in a flesh coloured grave
please take me home where I can feel safe“

Let me live again

I woke up this morning
with the blues next to my bed
the sky was just crying
inside of my head
so I’m trying to get out and face another day
please take your time and hear my plea

someone just told me
that the Earth was in pain
and humans so ignorant
well they are the only one’s to blame

let me live again
with nature all around me
let me ease her pain
and treat her with dignity

I fell into a restles sleep
with the blues inside my dreams
mother Earth hd shaken off
almost all of humanity

would you care about her love
would you dare to change your ways
and make a better world
create a peaceful place
for you and me

let me live again
with nature all around me
let me ease her pain
and treat her with dignity

I’m talking about your mother
I’m talking about her pain
talking ‚bout humanity
and the end of all that shame
that we’ve caused
put an end to all that shame

The inner child

„I come here into this small body that I do not understand
I come here to experience that I am loved“
it’s the inner child talking to you
and her voice in the wind is trying to come through
hey inner child how nice to meet you

„I awake in this world on this lovely Earth to feel that I am loved
loved by the sun and touched by the wind, loved by the beauty of sound
overwhelmed by my human senses I see life unfolding, I see love“
it’s the inner child that’s giving you a sign through the voice of the sky
she’s talking to you

„I have been away for a long time it seems not knowing about this way of being
and seeing everything like if it would be your very own self that you are looking at“
it’s the inner child reaching for you, try to communicate
it’s the inner child that’s awakening now
talking through your heart
she’s talking through your heart (please listen)

Expansion of the mind and soul

someday not so far from now
you will start to feel somehow
that there’s a different smell
that no one rally can’t tell
it’s all around and everywhere

expansion of the mind and soul
facing the future with a different goal
a change of life is coming from within
and there’s this new time gently slipping in

someday not so far away
you will face a brand new day
with coloured lights flying everywhere
in a strange and beautiful electric air

expansion of the mind and soul
facing the future with a different goal
a change of life is coming from within
and there’s this new time gently slipping in

let it flow let it grow
within your heart within your soul

Ocean of Light

looking back at my childhood
I see leaves playing in the sunshine
there were a million questions
but my heart it wasn’t waiting for answers
I just knew
the times were running wild
and changes were gonna come
to play the human game

I used to watch the seagulls fly
spreading their wings wide
I used to dream of mermaids playing
up in a blue sky
in an ocean of light

getting older I felt that my love it was fading
like the birds in the winter
a kind of sadness fell down on me
like a shadow of my own past fading
I just knew
the times were running wild
and changes were gonna come
to play the human game

I used to watch the seagulls fly
spreading their wings wide
I used to dream of mermaids playing
up in a blue sky
in an ocean of light

Going Home

I’m not so sure why but there are tears in my eyes
I’m heading home

I bow to the trees under my knees
‘cause I’m going home

I was wondering for so long
why they could not understand
so I decided to leave this place with dignity
and just like a man

How strange to see the wind in the trees
is calling my name

the moon silently is falling down
into an endless sea

I came here with the innocence
and curiosity of a  child
and I could not figure out
how a man could kill his only wife
just taking her life

So I decided to leave this place I’m  going home
I made up my mind and gave up my pride
heading home

Stars in my eyes are no more a surprise to me
I’m flying home
the sun’s left behind in a world that turned blind for me
I’m all alone in a magic storm
I’m heading home to the peaceful throne of the Lord

something’s got to change here
sometimes things ain’t right no more

and there were times when we felt disintegrated
