KINGS & QUEENS Kings and Queens are running wild, lonely for each other Princes gallant are no more staying under cover Jesters' jokes aren't even funny, poking fun at sorrow Lords and Ladies hoard their riches fearful for tomorrow Fantasies turning into truth Fantasies turning into truth Knight in chromium plated armour looking for a reason Kingdoms crops so fresh and pure are going out of season Maidens locked in some far tower stay inside forever Minstrels rhyming songs of reason changing with the weather Faces the fanfare only the fool Faces the fanfare only the fool INNOCENCE If you want the reasons For the changing of the seasons And you want to know why Blue is the colour of the sky Then you've missed the point completely And a little child smiles sweetly Cause he hasn't had the time To learn to ask the question why If I could show you the sky... If I could show you why... If I could show you... If I could show you... The years pass by unnoticed And I have no need to protest And I know you feel the same way Even though you never have to speak The pain of joy is equal To the joy of pain the sequel Is as sure as the minutes The hours and the days of every week But sometimes when the clouds obscure the sun I wonder why my day Is as narrow as the road That winds upon its way ISLAND There is an island Where it should never be Surrounded by suburban sea And through the tired and hopeless waves To where it's free I want to be there For the rest of my time There on the island The sun is always bright The moon sends the darkness away in the night I know that it's waiting I know there's a place ready for me I want to be there For the rest of my time Warm sounds of windsongs Come down through the trees But far away tears are borne on the breeze I'll follow the raindrops Cause sunshine and smiles are waiting for me I want to be there For the rest of my time WANDERER Wanderer, oh wanderer Chasing up every star Run for one and then catch none Then you will know what you are Then you will know what you are Wanderer, oh wanderer Be not afraid of unknowns Live them through and then will you Know the truth deep in your bones ? Know the truth deep in your bones ? Wanderer, oh wanderer You are unique as the rest See your goal and cleanse your soul Settle and find success BULLET Hey Lady Sodom Ramanah Black mamba bamboo business on a red sun night All over cry forgiveness for the last gunfight So cool in your compensation that you keep next to your skin Cold sudden shock reminder that you can't come in Changing from pain to pleasure is an easy ride Sweating under the sunfire till you cried and died Till you cried and died THE SEA The sea Holds its many hands to me And takes me To places where I want to be My dreams Many fathoms far below Like this The pattern of my life will flow Distant horizon Melts in the sun Turn and turn away Feel the end of day Hear the saddest call The stars appear I wonder how I'll be next year The tide will bring anew I hope there'll still be you The moon in its sadness Loose in the night Glowing from above Welcome joy and love How can it be That sun don't see A simple truth It seems to me Clouds obscure the view Sea awaits the view Now
