Joy Is Our Guide 03:42
lyrics

Joy Is Our Guide I believed that I had to struggle while all my tears were hiding in shame as I was fighting my whole mind became double it got insane I believed that I was in trouble While all these years the news never came that somewhere deep asleep in the rubble The harvest waits but then in the darkest night I stumbled over light since then the story of my life suddenly feels more than right so if you think that life is a fight better let it go than hold it tight its  a thought that comes and goes its not you its just a ghost I believed that I had to struggle despite the breeze that was showing the way But a pyre of fears, and a crack of thunder Set me aflame but then in the ……………..…………………... We´re not our stories we´re not our minds love has no worries joy is our guide

Lovers in the Dark 05:10
lyrics
buy track
Lovers In the Dark We could never walk side by side blinded, after the trial we went through the night before If our souls hadn´t once, already had to find it we would have never heard that distant call Standing there in despair, wishing that you could see the heavy load of memories crowding ever near I needed you to have and love, the child inside of me the whirlpool of emotions, drowning me in tears The shadows called our names, but we didn´t fear the cry welcome to the journey at the end you´ll see the light It was hard to see the wounds that were bleeding through all the masks we´d always wear but we knew deep inside, where all this was leading pulling the old seams that had to tear I´d have run away like so many times before using the old maps to hide from myself again If my heart hadn´t come through the open door to the land of liberation The shadows called our names, but we didn't fear the cry welcome to the journey at the end you´ll see the light Two drops in the ocean, igniting the forgotten spark The time has come for all the lovers to walk out of the dark

Disclosed 03:44
lyrics

Disclosed What will be left to judge when we stand up naked in line with each moment that is composed our essence can´t be broken and no one can take it anything that arises should be disclosed I´m not the first who´s taking my shirt off although at first it seemed rather cruel how could I finish the book that has been closed, the truth is hidden cause the writer is a fool Is it the strength or is it my weakness? I´m feeling the answer and what about you? but I´m not better than you and you´re not better than me cause we both flowing in the same river you´re not better than me and I´m not better than you there is no loser and there is no winner As my depth was born in the well of sadness the flicker of light lifted me high My bare body saved me from all the madness The deluge that came through delivered me dry

Across the Lifetimes 04:43
lyrics

Across the Lifetimes I saw you in the morning embracing the sunrise there was something more than vision I could see it in your eyes I heard the endless universe singing through your beating heart the old love song from the past a gently rockin' piece of art across the lifetimes We´re falling back in love again we´ve been apart for too long waiting for our paths to cross so that we could play along Now it all comes into view everything that I´ve been through looking in your gem stone eyes I found inside the real you across the lifetimes We´re falling back ……... Counting the lessons we have learned writing the story from the start where will it take us, we don´t know we agreed to play our part We´re falling back ……...

In the Flow 04:53
lyrics

In the Flow There is no end and there is no start we´re on the way to Infinity station the waves keep coming, then falling apart the illusion of time can create tension Swept in a current, we can´t control Our feeling is broken, as our minds try to touch struggling daily to follow the road using excuses as our worn out crutch but there is nothing to achieve in this world just try to become what you love NOW´s the time for inspiration rising from the source, the gospel of the soul we´ll never loose our navigation once we get into the flow Having the courage to act and to speak always aligned with our inner call day after day, week after week like tidal waves, we rise and we fall but there is nothing to achieve in this world try to become what you love NOW´s the time for inspiration rising from the source, the gospel of the soul we´ll never loose our navigation once we get into the flow NOW´s the time for inspiration rising from the source, the gospel of the soul we don´t need no one's ovation once we get into the FLOW

The Shortest Way Home 03:50
lyrics
buy track
The Shortest Way Home Don´t ever say there´re others to blame just ask yourself why tell the truth from the lie just ask your self... There´s always a choice to not follow the voice that speaks in your mind and it´s making you blind just ask your self “who am I?” See what´s inside no need to hide open your heart the time is right you know who you are the light of a star that always finds the shortest way home Whatever you choose you can´t ever loose when your well runs dry just ask yourself why just ask your self “who am I?” See what´s inside…….

Let It Go 02:39
lyrics

Let It Go Even if you´re feeling blue even if you think that all the world is leaving you your road has turned into a rink let it go.... Even if you´re full of doubts or if you live to win all your mind is crowded with clouds the light can´t shine from your skin let it go… Even if you can´t go on and you think you have no luck everything around seems to be wrong waiting for an ice cream truck let it go…

Thank You 04:20
lyrics

Thank You I came from the town to the city just a greenhorn with a big dream but I wasn´t ready for the road that was so gritty so all my dreams got broken and my eyes just didn´t see all the marvels that were around me neither the sun nor a tree I´m glad I know now that I have everything I need and I say: Thank you sun for the strength that you give me thank you air for filling my lungs thank you my friend that you forgive me thank you god for the day that comes thank you earth for all the harvest thank you love for healing my heart thank you night that you´re never starless thank you god for being so smart It took time to face my demons although I felt something was wrong there wasn´t any joy inside me I couldn´t find it all day long I was blaming all the others I was jealous and I was mad escaping through an empty bottle and then crying in my own bed

Perfect Game 04:53
lyrics

Perfect Game There is just this moment there is just the now but do I live it? do I feel it? an old man showed me the truth I´d carried within me and I thought it was easy Tomorrow is not certain, yesterday is gone, so how much longer till I get it? the more I learn the less I know, cause life itself is easy All this is just a perfect game playing chess with black and white A fairy tale of kings and queens the eternal cycle of day and night Scrolling down the pages of my virtual world longing for a touch of instant pleasure far away from everything that´s deep within me cause facing myself is not easy Rocking boats of others and I know here is the catch that´s holding me out of my harbor but winds of the old days sweeping me away changing the route is not easy All this is……………...
