Warrior

I know
Life's battles
And you can 
End up
Wounded

I can not
Carry your pain
This was done
Before
And does not
Resolve
The pain
Of your wounds

But I can
Show you
Where you can
Heal yourself
And arm yourself
For the future

In fact
You know
Where to go
From here

It hurts me
To see
A wounded warrior

You can get stronger
From within
I can never
Do this for you
Even if I really wanted
To do this

I have seen
Who you are
And what you will achieve

Heal yourself
Warrior
Because
You are beautiful
Warrior
And strong

We need
Warriors
Like you

Not for mortal battles

But for
The freedom
Of yourself
And others

I will always know
That you are there

music

i love to hand out
my favourite music
my favourite tunes

songs that i once played
or dreamed of playing
for others to hear
my flying carpet rides
and tales from another world
my way of touching
someone's heart
and just to hear you smile
as a bouquet of flowers
to you

what i still wanted to tell


..... and on the day
that you were born
the world got that much
richer

eastern perfume
and oriental eyes
this wisdom in your words
that dream never dies

and every time
i listened
I saw
the universe in your eyes

eastern perfume
and oriental eyes
this wisdom in words
your dream never dies

Coming back to you


When I am alone
By myself
That thought
Saying
It would be better
To keep the silence there
Between us
Nothing more

Now it seems
This is something new
I don't need you anymore

Until
Something shows
How fragile
This
All
Was

And
I
Am
Coming back to you

your eyes


what i see
in your eyes

children dance
on a palmy beach

and i see you
eating icecream

sitting in an open car
driven along

driven along

driven along the
wine fields of italy

and you want to kiss me
when we are

laying in the high grass
laying in the high grass

on a welsh hill
or in the south of france

that is what i see
when i look in your eyes

Another day, another way

In days gone past
Bound by allegiance way
When the dice were being cast
It took me to the battle array

How I saw people killed
Who fought for their own sake
My cup got never filled
When lives were at stake

A thought came to pass with me
There must be another way, another day
For all to be finally free
And a peaceful mind to stay

I left my bow and sword
To lead a life on higher ground
Through a song, through a word
Cast some happiness around

This is where I stand

Respecting for what you are
From my never-never land
Trust is never far

Gale


She's a woman
Who likes to have
The wind play
Through her hair

I would like to know
What part of the world
You walk on
Which sea you swim
How many stars
You see at night
Would you like
To tell me

She's a woman
Who likes to have
The wind play
Through your hair
And who makes you
Forget where you were
And know
Where you are
