Alone. Between lonely hearts
understanding misunderstood others
with attention, my password
the master key in my genes

Kicking I already did it
not yet capable of anything else
as a baby, as a grownup
no one should unlearn it

no one should claim it
when he feels hurt
by hurt people, wronged
by the world

of sham adults
Come, I'm coming, just swallow
your reproaches
for a kiss

A comet strikes, the Light
disappears in the earth, it gets cold
a winter of hunger and disease

that destroys, and then
a new beginning
in the spring, the return

of the Light, the Light:
trees and shrubs burst out
birds are singing with desire

the white deer sniffs
between the birches and looks
at the Light, the Light

Oh my love, the Light, the Light

is back, come outside
I want to run, cheer, jump
and feel that you lust after me

I want to roll with you in the grass
making love in the sun, making love
in full Light, the Light

is back and everything sings
of life, o my love
the Light, the Light
the Light, the Light

is back and everything sings
of life, o my love
the Light, the Light
the Light, the Light

Under the vine, I dance
with my swan arm one by one
the grapes above our heads
gracefully to your longing mouth
in my lap
     Do you feel what I feel?

Or does your desire look too far
ahead and is it worried
whether it will stay that way?
I don't know, I don't know
We shall see, you are with me
     Do you feel what I feel?

The smile in your eyes
sucks me in your heart
that's nice, we kiss
the light of heaven
and the goodness of the earth
     Do I feel what you feel?

I feel love, and it makes us
beautiful, it makes beautiful
what we do, do not doubt
     Feel what I feel
     then I will feel what you feel

Shoot me, shoot me
shoot me to heaven
up in the oak, everyone
barefoot on the family bed
     Come join us, here you are free!

We don't have to believe in anything
except in each other, the singer too
is loose, he laughs at his amulet
and waves to the old man:
     Come join us, here you are free!

The greybeard sees everything
with twinkling eyes in his long beard
full of bushes of moss in which
the wren whistles:
     Come join us, here you are free!

Come in the Crown
take off your shoes and socks
together on the family bed
a warm blanket to each other
     Come join us, here you are free!

Persephone wears flowers
and tough jackboots like a soldier
with muscles, or an open waistcoat
with a mini skirt like a virgin, always
conquering the instincts around her

In Coco's dress, she parades on Jersey
the transparent plastic rustles
every time I kiss it
passers-by take photos
she is in the newspapers

Spring has begun
old desires wake up
people get aroused
and inspired to let themselves go
she is an example

everyone sees her, but doesn't know who she is
flowers cover her bare body
she charms soldiers and virgins
with instincts, singing her praises
and creating life

We meditated in India
but we better sing
about our frustrations

Half of it is humbug
nice throw-away songs

to fall asleep to or
about being in love, fighting
over a woman, monkeys
and mirrors on your shoe-tips
to peek at an excitement
you don't see

so that we reach you
with the other half

- Fame is a roller coaster
   you always get out at the bottom
- Finding peace within yourself
   is the beginning
   of the revolution
- Black birds also sing
   beautifully, don't break their wings
- and stop feeding
   fat pigs
- Live wisely, no sweets
   It's bad for your teeth

Begin at the beginning
and strike out all conceitedness

Am I quite tiring, too full of myself?
Do you get restless, preferring to leave?
Maybe I'm talking too much: take some rest
Shall I come close to you, silently?

     Oh, with the help from my friends, yes with you
     Mm, with the help from my friends, it's so good
     Oh, with the help from my friends, yes I can
     With the help from my friends

Are there friends in your neighbourhood?
Yes, people need friends, we are not alone
Are there friends you can reach?
Yes, people need friends for a helping hand

Are there friends at your work?
I'm just doing better with friends
Are there friends at your home?
My friends, they are warming my soul

Are there friends when you dance?
With friends, it is always a party
Are there friends when you smile?
My friends, they are making me strong

Are there friends when you cry?
I'm sharing my sorrows with friends
Are there friends you are missing?
My friends, they embrace one another

Other people's wind blows
along your house and my house
with old songs that we hum
when sweeping the floor

We look at Déjà vu
once more and we dance
in thoughts, in real life
we are off the map

My breath is precious, every minute
twelve times pain and misery
twelve times the gentle wind
that conforms, that snuggles up

against the busy people
as a knowledge that we exist --
a reaching embrace
with always thinner kisses

I'm a servant, I give -- space
to inspiration and objections
I fill myself with wishes
and pour them out into decisions
until contentment flows over

I don't hear complainers complain
they encourage, never getting lost
in expectations

The profit is just a balance
of round-off differences
expenditure becomes income
in the space -- of the living together
where everyone is in the middle

of nowhere special, nowhere people
everywhere, on their way to nowhere
because they are already there

I came for you, not for the wood
that you make me touch, polished
with a goldjointed split here and there --

the simplicity-beauty
of the song of time on the lute
of life, your life

You show me the snaps
and stretch the evening, you stretch yourself
to the goodnight in the hallway

In the guest bed, I caress the wood
of your heart, so much do I want
to make it burn

not to sleep alone, not patiently
wait, but start the future
which you are now dreaming

great, not patiently wait
until you want me, I want to love you
at first sight

People in need -- in a game
of Truth is Dare and Do
I fly in, in a cape, swift as an arrow

and get entangled, sticking
to the strings that I weave
of the help that I give

I put my hands out, so softly
you take them with the heroic power
that jumps over, you smile --

In the world to help, to help
each other, right
if only

you are with me
and know my questions
and spoil me with attention

We are no longer teenagers
yet we still fly back and forth
to help each other, time after time

People are too short old
and too long young, they don't
become as wise as brownies

They have little profit
from the lessons they draw
from pain and pleasure, and

from the lessons they ignore
because they prefer to believe
in what the world promises

because they prefer to believe
it is within reach
and the prospect is worth it

to keep waiting
and I can't do anything about it
I'm just a rainbow

that is never there where you are
a gate on the horizon
where all the exits come together

I do love you
of me, because I love you
Only you!

I do love you, love you, love
These words are rather plain
no, there is nothing to explain
I only have to sing that I love you

I do want you, want you, want
So hear, my needs are clear
oh hear, forget your fear
of me, because I love you

     I do love you
     it's safe, you can surrender
     to feel the love I offer you

     Please, do not worry
     about the world, about everything
     that threatens to go wrong

     Let it go, let me come
     into your heart, into you arms
     then you will no longer be alone

     Just listen to a sad song
     then you will be better
     then you will be free for me
