Afraid of water

A slap and I was awake
A handwritten note that told me
That she had finally found love
Which she had looked for but not found with me.
'You poor fellow, you are completely blown away!'
A doctor's note, and so I was obliged to travel
Three changes, I was sat on the beach a day later
Overcoming my hangover with a cocktail
I sat carelessly looking at my two feet in the sand
'Will you go diving with me later?'
I hear a name and get a hand
How good she smelled, so that didn't seem like a good plan
'I'd prefer to stay on dry land if I have a choice
Is that also okay?'
 
I said:
I am afraid of water, it's too deep for me
All fish bite and I can't see the bottom
And in case of drowning I panic
Maybe later but not for now
 
Day two, book read
I stare at the setting sun
The most beautiful woman that I have ever seen in my life
Steps out of the surf and onto the steps of my balcony
I recognise her perfume
She says: 'are you coming with me?' and turns around
I am afraid of water and so that is how it began
'I once almost drowned,' she said, 'I understand,
But I'll help you through it.'
 
I said:
I am afraid of water, it's too deep for me
All fish bite and I can't see the bottom
And in case of drowning I panic
I am afraid of water, but with her I wasn't
 
Fifteen years later
Unbelievable how fast the time went
I see my son standing at the edge of the deep end
Looking at a girl who stood a little further along
She jumps in the water
And he stays stood stock still
She comes up and he looks at me anxiously
'When I met your mother, I was just as afraid
And now you are here...'
 
I am afraid of water, it's too deep for me
All fish bite and I can't see the bottom
And in case of drowning I panic
I am afraid of water, but with her I was not
 

The Loser

Versions: #2
I'm entangled every night
In the fibres of your web
Where I'm to hang suspended
Until I've shed my homesickness
But I still see the shapes
Of your lips on my glass
And your body's still imprinted in the mattress
 
Tie my hands down my body
And yet still I'll be holding you
Blindfold me
And groping I'll find you
Deafen both my ears
And I'll still hear what you say
I'm the loser
The loser
Loser in an unequal fight
 
Every night I lie fettered to a chain of loss
And I'm not allowed to move
Until the pain has gone down
In the room there are fragments
Of our life on the floor
And there's still the taste of your tears in my mouth
 
Tie my hands down my body
And yet still I'll be holding you
Blindfold me
And groping I'll find you
Deafen both my ears
And I'll still hear what you say
I'm the loser
The loser
Loser in an unequal fight
 
You follow me wherever I go
Wherever I am
Wherever I stand
You're the shadow behind me
Every second of the day
I hear your voice
I see your smile
When will you set my heart free again
 
O I should like to flee
But it's no use to escape
For in the end you'll catch up with me again
 
Tie my hands down my body
And yet still I'll be holding you
Blindfold me
And groping I'll find you
Deafen both my ears
And I'll still hear what you say
I'm the loser
The loser
Loser in an unequal fight

Like you're flying

She was so breakable, was so fragile
When you got to know her
Like a leave of a rose, so soft
She was a bit shaky, and sometimes a bit angry
But you could handle it
That's what I thought
 
The time passed and it seems like that
It went better with her bit by bit
Slowly she found the power
Your love turned out to be the right colour
And then happened
What I'd never expected
 
From the ground
You helped her building
Till he could do everything herself
Until she stood
Till she her legs and wings
found
 
Well, I hope she enjoys
All the beauty she sees now
And that the wind will carry her wings forever
Because you grant her luck
Despite your tears of sorrow
But I hope that she arms her for the fall
 
Because you know, my love
She seems much stronger than you now
But appearances are deceiving
She doesn't see it
Because if you fall, sometimes it is like you are flying
It feels like you are flying
 
He was so caring and charming
When you got to know him
Such a remedy for the pain
You kept going, broken heart
But he was unstoppable
To nice to be true
 
From the start
A sea of flowers he has there at your pedestal
But when he got you
Just as fast as he came, he went
 
Well, I hope he enjoys
All the beauty he sees now
And that he then find his luck there
Because you don't want to weigh him down
Despite your tears of sorrow
But I hope that he arms him for the fall
 
Because you know, my love
He seems much higher than you now
But appearances are deceiving
She doesn't see it
Because if you fall, sometimes it is like you are flying
It feels like you are flying
 
So don't think, my love, that you are the weakest
It's not that difficult to leave
Because when the storm rises
And everybody starts running the strongest trees will keep standing
And a head in the clouds yet doesn't say that someone can fly
Again and again the shortest route
Makes you faster
But does it make you wiser
 
I'm so proud of you
When I see how strong you are
And you become stronger
 

Have I lost you already

I count the hours between today and tomorrow
and I always again come out betrayed.
It takes ever longer before the moon leaves the sky
while I'm waiting.
For your decision.
 
Trying to guess what you think and feel
and what you think of my disappointment.
I hope that you're not doing it out of sympathy
because I don't want
such a relationship.
 
Just don't think about me for a moment
and do it only for yourself,
because being with you
doesn't make sense
if you don't really love me.
 
Take your time,
otherwise you will only come to regret it again.
Or have I lost you already?
 

There is no goodbye

I will be leaving but I won’t leave you
My love, you must believe me although it hurts
I want you to release me
And that you will keep on tomorrow,
But if you are lonely or anxious
I will be there for you.
 
I will be coming as the wind that you feel and the rain
I‘ll be watching what you do like the light of the moon,
Look for me in everything, and then you will find me.
Whisper my name and I will be coming round.
 
See the things that are invisible, what you believe in is true,
Just open your eyes and I will be there,
All you must do is to believe my words,
There is no goodbye.
 
I will be coming as the wind that you feel and the rain
I‘ll be watching what you do like the light of the moon,
Look for me in everything, and then you will find me.
Whisper my name and I will be coming round.
 
Look into the sky, look at the sea,
Wherever you go I will be by your side,
Every step you take, and in every moment, wherever you are,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
