Music of light 2011

1. Music Of Light

Singing all night with the music of light      Chantant toute la nuit avec la musique de la lumière
Dancing around, sun is finding it's way        Dansant autour, le soleil trouve son chemin
This magical music takes hold of me            Cette musique magique s’empare de moi
Now I feel so free in the wind                 Maintenant je me sens si libre dans le vent
  
Singing with you                               Chantant avec vous
Here by the rainbow                            Ici près de l’arc-en-ciel
Dancing around                                 Dansant
Whispering your name                           Chuchotant ton nom
Singing with you                               Chantant avec vous
I want to ask you                              Je veux te demander
If you'd like with me to stay                  Si tu veux rester avec moi

Now that we're dancing in streaming light      Maintenant que nous dansons dans le flux de lumière 
In the old ballroom with you by my side        Dans la vieille salle de bal avec toi à mes côtés
Between young maids and noble knights          Entre jeunes servantes et nobles chevaliers
It feels like inside a dream                   C’est comme dans un rêve

The shining sunlight is warming my face        La lumière du soleil me réchauffe le visage
Looking to heaven, a gentle embrace            Regardant vers le ciel, une douce étreinte
With you beside me I feel so alive             Avec toi à côté de moi je me sens si vivante
Lying in fresh summerfields                    Couché dans les frais champs d’été 

Singing with you
Here by the rainbow
Dancing around
Whispering your name
Singing with you
I want to ask you
If you'd like with me to stay

Now that we're dancing around and around      Maintenant que nous dansons autour et autour
Hypnotized by the colours and sounds          Hypnotisé par les couleurs et les sons
Stars are no longer out of reach              Les étoiles ne sont plus hors de portée
And I feel so free                            Et je me sens si libre

Singing with you
Here by the rainbow
Dancing around
Whispering your name
Singing with you
I want to ask you
If you'd like with me to stay

2. On Flaming Wings

Tell me, can you watch the sun                Dis-moi, peux-tu regarder le soleil
Can you stand it?                             Tu peux le supporter ?
Oh tell me, can you watch the sun?            Dis-moi, tu peux regarder le soleil ?
Come on it's fun                              Allez viens, c’est amusant

As we're riding on flaming wings              Comme nous chevauchons sur des ailes flamboyantes
We fly towards the stars                      Nous volons vers les étoiles

Tell me, can you watch the sun
Can you stand it?
Oh tell me, can you watch the sun?
And take the first step?

For the path is a rocky one,                  Comme le chemin est rocailleux,
The journey will last                         Le voyage durera

Tell me, can you watch the sun
Can you stand it?
Oh tell me, can you watch the sun?
And go to the end?

Sometimes I wish I could fly away             Parfois j’aimerais pouvoir m’envoler vers ailleurs
Leave everything behind and go my own way     Laisser tout derrière moi et suivre ma propre voie
Listen to the words of my longing heart       Ecoute les paroles de mon cœur ardent
Follow the written path of my destiny         Suivre le chemin écrit de mon destin

3. Raise Your Cups

Roll in the barrels and bring in the jugs
Quick, set the tables and ask in thebards
Tonight when the setting sun lights up the
mountain
The king is having a glorious feast

Brothers and sisters raise your cups
High in the air
Fill them again and drink it up
Celebrate

Light up the torches and let's dance together
Raise your hands high up into the air
Tomorrow there will be a new beginning
But now we gonna drink one more beer

Brothers and sisters raise your cups
High in the air
Fill them again and drink it up
Celebrate

Oh oh, oh oh....

4. My Dear Friend

When I look back I see your face
The smile in your eyes
The moments that we both shared come to
my mind
Those wonderful times

In my life you were the one
who loved me in spite of myself
It hurt to say a last goodbye
And watch you drift slowly away by my side

Let the sadness go away
Let the rain wipe away my tears
For forever my heart belongs to you
And I know you'll be always near

There's no one waiting at the door
It's empty inside
But every place tells me the story of
Your life by my side

While other friends came and went
You stayed by me, one true heart
I'll never find that peace again
You were there for me, you could understand

Let the sadness go away
Let the rain wipe away my tears
For forever my heart belongs to you
And I know you'll be always near

Let the sadness go away
After everything we've been through
You forever will stay inside my heart
I will always remember you

I can not fill the space you left
It won't be the same
No matter where I go and what I see
This silence remains

Forgive me if I did something wrong
Cause I've never meant to hurt you
So fast the years passed us by
There's never enough time to say goodbye

Let the sadness go away
Let the rain wipe away my tears
For forever my heart belongs to you
And I know you'll be always near

Let the sadness go away
After everything we've been through
You forever will stay inside my heart
I will always remember you

When I look back I see your face
The smile in your eyes
The moments that we both shared come to my mind
Those wonderful times

Forgive me if I did something wrong
Cause I've never meant to hurt you
So fast the years passed us by
There's never enough time to say goodbye

5. World Of Hatred

In this world, so full of hatred
Broken bodies, broken souls
Wars are ranging for all times
Darkness creeps inside your heart

Look around you now
and tell me just what you see
people are living in darkness
look around you
their eyes aren't alive any more
you can reach no one's soul

Is this the end?
What's this for?
No one can hear
Screams behind the door

Fallen angel, oh hear my prayer
World has become, world has become hell
All alone now, let me die here
The enemy waits right behind you

Look around you now
and tell me just what you see
people are living in darkness
look around you
their eyes aren't alive any more
you can reach no one's soul

Is this the end?
What's this for?
No one can hear
Screams behind the door

6. Dark Red Desire

I look into the darkened sky
I feel the wind moving
Deep in my veins I feel it all
It flies away
The darkness comes and captures me
He takes my breath away
Inside of me a demon wakes
I feel my strength

I got a feeling deep inside
I'm not alone in here
I hear his breath, he's all round
The time has come

You're close behind me
Touching my skin with your breath
I can feel your pale lips
Desirously searching my neck
Let us conquer the night
Following your burning lust
We reach the point
Of no return

My body feels enlightened warmth
Your resurrecting kiss
My blood is moving through your veins
Now I'm your bride

You're close behind me
Touching my skin with your breath
I can feel your pale lips
Desirously searching my neck
Let us conquer the night
Following your burning lust
We reach the point
Of no return

You're close behind me
Touching my skin with your breath
I can feel your pale lips
Desirously searching my neck
We have conquered the night
The world has now come an end
We've reached the point
Of no return

7. Midwinter Nights

The king's eldest son hasn't ever married
The king was raged and has decreed:
The lady who performs the task he has set
Shall become the prince's lawful wife

Go to the darkest cave
The dragon's sleeping there
I hope your heart is strong
Kill him with your mighty sword
Go to the darkest cave
The dragon's sleeping there
This takes you three days long
I wish you wisdom and faith

Two of the three have died in battle
They have fought with swords and greatest spears
But the last and youngest sang a tune so lovely
The dragon dropped off to enchanted sleep

Go to the darkest cave
The dragon's sleeping there
I hope your heart is strong
Kill him with your mighty sword
Go to the darkest cave
The dragon's sleeping there
This takes you three days long
I wish you wisdom and faith

A passion glory
Moonlight singing hope and joy
The prince has now married
A faithful heart Midwinter poetry
A passions glory
Dancing at the setting sun
The old dragon's dead now
And the king's son has found his one

The night has turned to a sunny morning
The gentle breeze is full of hope
But they can not see that after nightfall
The eyes of the dragon glow in the dark

Go to the darkest cave
The dragon's sleeping there
I hope your heart is strong
Kill him with your mighty sword
Go to the darkest cave
The dragon's sleeping there
This takes you three days long
I wish you wisdom and faith

8. Till Death Do Us Apart

I'm so alone
I have lost all I ever wanted
Only his love I have kept in me
He's gone away and my heart turns so cold and empty
He left me alone to bleed

From far away I can hear voices in the darkness
I feel so sad and I dream of him
At even fall he met me on the bridge of waters
He held me tight and the time stood still

At this night-time I felt alive
I saw the moon rising, up in the sky
At this evening he came to me
And he said he loved me more than his life

There's no love that lasts forever
Without him my hearts is crying
There no life left inside her
Without him I'll die

There's no love that lasts forever
The coldness has come to take me
There no life left inside her
My heart turns to stone

There's no love that lasts forever
Without him my hearts is crying
There no life left inside her
Without him I'll die

At this night-time I felt alive
I saw the moon rising, up in the sky
At this evening he came to me
And he said he loved me more than his life

There's no love that lasts forever
Without him my hearts is crying
There no life left inside her
Without him I'll die

There's no love that lasts forever
The coldness has come to take me
There no life left inside her
My heart turns to stone

There's no love that lasts forever
Without him my hearts is crying
There no life left inside her
Without him I'll die

Now with the wind I just feel that my soul grows colder
I dream of him, darkness is my light
I sense that I'm dying and I'm lying on the
bridge of waters where we met
I feel his warmth here and my soul flies away

9. Ruined Castle

Deep in the forest lies
a castle ruined by time
It's stones lay there
as the centuries went by
If they could speak they
would tell a traveller
Stories from long passed days
of battles and of feasts

Among this walls there
once has been life
Babies were bought into
the world abd old men died

Characters from ancient past
Awake up in my fantasy
Mighty kings and noble knights
Come to life once more

From far away I hear a sound
it appears to me
That in a minute a hunt with
horses and hounds will ride back in

Characters from ancient past
Awake up in my fantasy
Mighty kings and noble knights
Come to life once more

Characters from ancient past
Awake up in my fantasy
Mighty kings and noble knights
Come to life once more

All this dreamy fantasy
Makes me fall asleep
And another day has passed
How the time flies

10. A Stranger’s Story

He left his home when he grew up
To reach the stars
He wandered around everywhere
To find the place of dreams

The light was pale
The moon was shining down on him
He walked alone through the night
Searching for more wisdom

What more could he say
He's hoping to find light of day
But deep inside him he knows
That sunlight is far more away

An owl was howling from a tree
The wind was cold
Fading away in the dark
Glimmering moon shadow

He was afraid inside
He didn't know the way
Shallow lake sang a song
He fell on his kness and prayed

What more could he say
He's hoping to find light of day
But deep inside him he knows
That sunlight is far more away

The day has died
And the night passed away
And now for him there's just nothing to say
And soon he'll find in the rain of the night
That every journey will come to an end

He was alone and sad
Beside a willow tree
Crying for sense in his life
He finally realized

In all his life he searched
For truth so far away
But the truth itself
Lay deep within his soul

What more could he say
Now he has found light of day
Still deep inside him he knew
It wasn't a journey away

Black Is The Colour (2013)

1. Believe

One day as a child you open your eyes
And see the world ahead, open wide
Ready to explore adventures of life
You set out on the journey

But one day you'll learn that not all dreams will come true
Sometimes we must face grief and loss
Blinded by fear, lost in the dark
At some point you will need all the strength that you've got

High above there is a star that shines bright for me
Gives warmth and light
And in times of need I know for sure
There is someone who believes in me

Totally excited you open your heart
To make a former stranger your special one
Magical connection, two hearts beat as one
You're sure it lasts forever

But one day you'll learn that not all dreams will come true
Sometimes we must face grief and loss
Blinded by fear, lost in the dark
At some point you will need all the strength that you've got

High above there is a star that shines bright for me
Gives warmth and light
And in times of need I know for sure
There is someone who believes in me

Certainly not all dreams will come true
Sometimes we must face grief and loss
Blinded by fear, lost in the dark
At some point you will need all strength that you've got

High above there is a star that shines bright for me
Gives warmth and light
And in times of need I know for sure
There is someone who believes...

High above there is a star that shines bright for me
Gives warmth and light
And in times of need I know for sure
There is someone who believes in me

2. Don’t Look Back

Every time I close my eyes
I see your face, your broken smile
And all of my memories come back to life

Suddenly my life was changed
And overnight
The world has turned to something strange
The leaves have fallen from the tree of my life

Don't look back, please go on
Though it's hard to leave behind your shattered dreams
They seemed so real
Time will heal the pain oh please believe

Nowadays the fog grows deep
It keeps away the sunlight from my aching skin
All warmth and colours disappeared

What has been
Is etched upon my memory
Is cut into my open chest
I know I'll never be the same once again

Don't look back, please go on
Though it's hard to leave behind your shattered dreams
They seemed so real
Time will heal the pain oh please believe

Has all the best passed, or is it yet to come?
Will a new love last or will it come undone?
What am I here for, which road is mine to take?
A new dawn, a start and an empty page

Has all the best passed, or is it yet to come?
Will a new love last or will it come undone?
What am I here for, which road is mine to take?
A new dawn, a start and a new empty page

Don't look back, please go on
Though it's hard to leave behind your shattered dreams
They seemed so real
Time will heal the pain oh please believe

3. Rainsong

Autumn leaves are falling to the ground.        Les feuilles d'automne tombent sur le sol.
My heartbeat is the only sound around.          Le batement de mon coeur est le seul bruit aux alentours.

Sunlight plays hide and seek with clouds.       La lumière joue à cache cache avec les nuages.
Drops of rain start to fall and sing aloud.     Les gouttes de pluie commence à tomber en chantant fort.

Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da         Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window.              La pluie tombe sur ta fenêtre.
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da         Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window pane          La pluie tombe sur ta vitre.

Standing still I gaze into the distance.        restant immobile je regarde au loin.
Far away there's someone who thinks of me.      Loin d'ici quelqu'un pense à moi.

Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window pane

Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window
Dap da da dap dap, dap da da dap dap da
The rain goes down on your window

One hundred tiny raindrops tell the story of their journey      Une centaine de petites gouttes d'eau racontent l'histoire de leur voyage
One hundred tiny raindrops tell their colourful story           Une centaine de petites gouttes d'eau racontent leur histoire pleine de couleur
One hundred tiny raindrops tell the story of their journey      Une centaine de petites gouttes d'eau racontent l'histoire de leur voyage
One hundred tiny raindrops bring gentle kisses from my beloved  Une centaine de petites d'eau ramènent les gentils baisers de mon amoureux 

4. The One For Me

I've been looking for you all my life                Je t'ai cherché tout au long de ma vie
I've been waiting all this time to be found by you   Je t'ai attendu tout ce temps pour que tu me trouves
I've been walking the streets                        Je marchais dans les rues
Looking into every stranger's eyes                   Regardant tous les étrangers au fond des yeux
Waiting for a sign, for a tiny spark to touch        Attendant pour un signe, pour une petite étincelle au contact
This lonely heart of mine                            Ce coeur solitaire pour moi

All my life I have searched for you                  Toute ma vie je t'ai recherché
You will light the night for me, like the moon       Tu allemras la nuit pour moi, comme la lune
Bring love and joy to my way                         Apporteras l'amour et la joie sur mon chemin
Like the sun on a summer day                         Comme le soleil durant un jour d'été

I can see you when I close my eyes                   Je peux te voir quand je ferme mes yeux
I know what it would be like to walk by your side    Je sais à quoi ressemblera de marcher à tes cotés
People all around tell me I am being so naive        Les gens autour me disent que je suis si naÏve
Maybe they are right, but I feel I have to heed      Peut-être ils ont raison, mais je sens que j'ai à  tenir compte
The voice inside my heart                            De la voix au fond de mon coeur

All my life I have searched for you
You will light the night for me, like the moon
Bring love and joy to my way
Like the sun on a summer day

One more day comes to close and I                    Un jour de plus viens à se terminer et
Still wait for you to arrive                         Attends toujours que tu arrives
Have you lost your way                               As-tu perdu ton chemin
Will I lose my faith in being with you someday       Predrai-je ma foi d'être avec vous un jour

Day after day I've been searching for
Something to show me, who is the one for me
You're a dream, you're my fantasy
Light up the fire, lead me home, set me free

All my life I have searched for you
You will light the night for me, like the moon
Bring love and joy to my way
Like the sun on a summer day

All my life I have searched for you
You will light the night for me, like the moon
Bring love and joy to my way
Like the sun on a bright summer day

5. All I Got

Another day, another night                              Un autre jour, une autre nuit
The world goes on, time goes by                         Le monde continue, le temps passe
But for me the time has stopped, has stopped            Mais pour moi le temps s'est arrêté, arrêté
You're here by me, where you belong                     Tu es ici près de moi, où tu es
We laugh and kiss, our love is strong                   Nous rions et nous noues embrassons, notre amour est fort
Another second, another minute of my dream              Une autre seconde, une autre minute de mon rêve

Your friendly smile gives me that peaceful feeling      Ton sourire amical me donne ce sentiment de paix
Your gentle touch shows me how much you care            Ton contact gentil me montre combien tu te préoccupe de moi
Please hold me near, let me forget all the world around S'il te plait tiens moi près de toi, laisse moi oublier tout le monde qui nous entoure
No one exists beside you and me right now               Personne n'existe derrière toi etmoi à partir de maintenant

You were the one I had to love                          Tu es celui que je devais aimer
With all my faith, all my heart                         Avec toute ma foi, tout mon coeur
I reached for you, you took my hand, my hand            Je te rejoins, tu prends ma main, ma main
A special time, a special bond                          Un temps spécial, un lien spécial
I found what I was looking for so long                  J'ai trouvé ce que je cherhais depuis si longtemps
A place to see one another                              Un endoit pour nous voir l'un l'autre
For who we really are                                   Pour qui nous sommes vraiment

Your friendly smile gives me that peaceful feeling
Your gentle touch shows me how much you care
Please hold me near, let me forget all the world around
No one exists beside you and me right now

Your friendly smile gives me that peaceful feeling            Ton sourire amical me donne ce sentiment de paix
Your gentle touch shows me how much you care                  Ton contact gentil me montre combien tu te préoccupe de moi
I feel the warmth of your hand on my skin and it's all I got  Je sens la chaleur de tes mains sur ma peau et c'est tout ce que j'ai
My memories of times that now have passed...                  Mon souvenir du temps qui est maintenant passé...

6. My Darkest Dream

I, close my eyes                                     Je ferme mes yeux
I see you there and think of former times            Je te vois là et je pense au temps passé
You've gone too far. You broke my heart.             Tu es allé trop loin. Tu as cassé mon coeur 
What have you done?                                  Qu'est ce que tu as fait?

I wanna hear you scream. I wanna know for sure.      Je veux entendre tes cris. Je veux être sure.
Inside my darkest dream, I wanna hear you scream.    Dans mes rêves les plus sombres, je veux entendre tes cris
I wanna hear you scream, I wanna know for sure.      Je veux entendre tes cris. Je veux être sure.
I want to be alone with you, alone with you.         Je veux être seule avec toi,seule avec toi.

How could you do this to me?                         Comment as-tu pu me faire ça?
Break the promise you made.                          Casser la promesse que tu as faite.
I believed every lie you told me.                    J'ai cru tous les mensonges que tu m'as dit.
You left and there's so much pain .                  Tu est parti et il y a tant de douleur.

This, this is the time.                              C'est le moment.
This is the day for seeing you again .               C'est le jour pour te voir à nouveau.
Pain everywhere, flowing through my veins,           La douleur partout, coule dans mes veines,
Burning my soul                                      Brulant mon âme.

I wanna hear you scream. I wanna know for sure.      Je veux entendre tes cris. Je veux être sure.
Inside my darkest dream, I wanna hear you scream.    Dans mes rêves les plus sombres, je veux entendre tes cris
I wanna hear you scream, I wanna know for sure.      Je veux entendre tes cris. Je veux être sure.
I want to be alone with you, alone with you.         Je veux être seule avec toi,seule avec toi.

How could you do this to me?                         Comment as-tu pu me faire ça?
Break the promise you made.                          Casser la promesse que tu as faite.
I believed every lie you told me.                    J'ai cru tous les mensonges que tu m'as dit.
You left and there's so much pain .                  Tu est parti et il y a tant de douleur.

8. In Your Dreams

Deep in the silent ocean
High up in the sky
Second to the right and
Straight on till morning comes

There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
There is a place where you can find your true love
In the land of children's dreams

Flying in the moonlight
Stars shining down so bright
Fairies' light will guide you
Straight to the secret shore

Don't be afraid, just close your eyes
Your dreams will come true if you try

There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
There is a place where you can find your true love
In the land of children's dreams

Waiting to be explored
The land of adventures lies
It can be found by everyone
With an open heart

Don't be afraid, just close your eyes
Your dreams will come true if you try

There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the way
There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
There is a place where you can find your true love
In the land of children's dreams

Tell me can you remember
Back in your childhood's days
You believed that every wish
Is just one step away

Don't be afraid, just close your eyes
Your dreams will come true if you try

There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
A place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
There is a place where you can find what you seek
This path shows you the right way
There is a place where you can find your true love
In the land of children's dreams

9. Fireside Stories

The night falls upon our land
Slowly, the sun is hiding
Anticipation
Fills up the air

Head for the sacred place
Gather around the fire
Keep quiet and listen
The stories begin

Come, join our circle tonight
Take a seat right here by our side
Tales of magic, love and desire
Told by the heat of the fire

The elders begin to speak
Voices so rich and deep
They take us away
Into other worlds

Come, join our circle tonight
Take a seat right here by our side
Tales of magic, love and desire
Told by the heat of the fire

10. My Fall

I feel weak
Broken by the one who
Promised me to protect
Me and hold me tight
Until our last breath

I'm freezing cold
Left without your warmth I've
Given you all my trust
All I had to give
Nothing left untouched

Please put your strong arms around me
Hear my desperate screams
I need you now
From the bottom of my heart

Put your strong arms around me
Hear my desperate screams
I need you now
From the bottom of my heart

Time has passed
Images have faded
Like a trace in the sand
But I realized
Time can heal no wounds

You're still here
An empty space beside me
Where you once used to be
Where you held my hand

11. As I learned to fly

Please put your strong arms around me        S'il te plait entoure moi de tes bras forts
Hear my desperate screams                    Ecoute mes cris désespérés
I need you now                               J'ai besoin de toi maintenant
From the bottom of my heart                  Du plus profond de mon coeur

Put your strong arms around me
Hear my desperate screams
I need you now
From the bottom of my heart

With my last                                Avec mes dernières
Strength I hold on                          Forces j'attends
To your hand, I must                        A ta main, je dois
Can't let you go                            Je ne peux pas te laisser partir
And I fall                                  Et je tombe
Deep down I fall...                         Dans un grand vide je tombe ...

Please put your strong arms around me
Hear my desperate screams
I need you now
From the bottom of my heart

Put your strong arms around me              Mets des bars forts autour de moi
Please don't leave me behind                Ne me laisse pas derrière toi
I need you now                              J'ai besoin de toi maintenan
From the bottom of my heart                 Du plus profond de mon coeur
