DREAM Thereyou are sweaty and sleepy Corneredaftersuch a dream, With no one your own to tell That this is notthatworld of yours The one youdreamed of sooften.

But youhave the freedommanyaroundyou don't.

Becauseyou're the one who's coming and fromwhom a lot is expected, You're the one with freshblood That is served to many, Becauseyou're the one whoinherits the world No matter what you are!

BLONDE I I remember the times Itwasspring!

Everythingwasblooming and sowas she.

Solush, all in whitewalkingdown the street Notnoticinganyone.

That's her; I said to myself That's just what I need.

Spring is beautiful and everythingsmellslovely ( justlikeeveryspring ).

She's goingdown the road she knowswell Alwaysequally blonde, grumpy And lush, all in white Notnoticinganyone!

22

BLONDE II I saw her againtoday Shewasreallywonderful And she was with someone But itdoesn't matter.

She's gorgeously blonde and I enjoy her beauty.

Let it all go to hell!

I saw her againtoday She's reallyirreplaceable.

She stayed in mymind for a long, long time Althoughthat's not what I want.

She's gorgeously blonde and I enjoy her beauty Let it all go to hell!.....

BLONDE III I'm sittinghere all alone, And she's walkingaroundfreefrom me and God ( She doesn't give a fuck ).

But when I giveit a secondthought Is she capable of lovingsomeone?

BRUNETTE I canfeel her next to me When I'm alone in the room.

When I'm alone in the room and the music's playing, I canfeel her around me somewhere.

The sun is shiningoutside, And they're showingsnowymountains on TV. AllthattogetherThat is one of thosebeautifulmoments Thatgive me hope.

I canstillfeel her and I'm wondering what is she doingnow In some roomsothin and skinny ?

YOU AND I You are the Earth and I am the sky.

In the beginning I was the Earth and youwere the sky, But thingsturnedaround.

We're herenext to eachother, and yetwehavesolittle in common, but thenagainsomuch, and we look goodtogether.

The birds and the sun, the snow and the rain is what wehave in common and There's trulynothingelsewe need!
