ARRIÈRE SAISON
(Gaertner / Maia / Vavallo)
From the day you crossed my path
I never wanted to know
I knew what i was about to say
It only wouldn`t hurt so much, though
Greyish is the twighlight
Dim are my senses on the break of day
A world is left for me and it`s called the night
And i find some relief beneath her shades
Desire scented black lace
He walked out that door
Leaving his heart and his trace
Dark tinted stayn on my body
Passion pervaded skin at your will
Were i not to know your ways
I`d be living happier days
Make me smile once
In your life dear
That`s all i ask of you
The price to pay
Never again

Cathedrals

You can tell a lie
You can hold to it
You can say a lie
You can cling to it.
Can you tell the cathedral?
Can you save the cathedral?
You got used to it
You get used to it...
Will you hide the cathedral?
Will you leave the cathedral?
You got angry over it,
But church have to break.
You may say to it
That it's all a lie
That they all were saints,
No one told a lie.
Can you save the cathedral?

Dear life is a river
Take a fancy to its curves and see
How everything has meant nothing
Hitherto
Caress the one drop of hope
That pours so that you can catch
The water’s breath
Sigh while time is here still
Thou must be daysleeping,
Nightdreaming.
(Refr)
I’ll see those memories to other tides
They’d be higher than
The mountains that crushed my dreams
With such disgrace smeared on thy face
Thou shall unlive forever
Night comes to me as an alabaster
I dared to paint navy blue
Should verlaine say blue means agony
I would then guess that she appears as sadness
Drained into a sea of dew

Hey you, mister of moonlight
Hey you whispered true
A spangle maker
I feel the few hearts he seeks
Liquid falls through it all
Cracks on the wall
I can’t hold back the surprise
Listen to the sarabande
That lingers on tonight
See them dance ´neath the bright
Moon...
He’s got leaves in store
To spare with his thoughts...
No I cannot escape...
He knows I cannot escape
Dream, dream, dream
Your curls of long thoughts
He belongs down here,
With the moonlight over there he sails...
Choked with silence
Clouds merged into pouring tears
I shed dew...
I let a scarlet trail show
Ever since you blue-whispered
Rain in my soul
Ever since you kissed me farewell
Blue scattered rain in my soul...
Should life be but a dream
A dream within a dream....
Should life be but a dream...

Nearness

All I was cracked while sighing
Back to your dark eyes
Oh blink then for me dear
Only once before we part
Night falls waltzing me
To my dead end garden
She’s got leaves in store
To spare with her thoughts
Hopelessly I’m adrift
In the nearness of those shades
Hopelessly I’m adrift
In the nearness of those shades
Choked with silence
Clouds merged into pouring tears
I shed dew...
I let a scarlet trail show, dear
Ever since you blue-whispered
Rain in my soul
Ever since you kissed me farewell
Should love be but a dream...
Within a dream....

Um som agudo, um pequeno aviso
Sinal do medo, ou teu sorriso?
Quem detém a força pra te salvar?
Quem no mundo entende a dor
De nunca mais te escutar...
Fagulha de tempo tão distante
Crepitando em minha mente
Desejei teu corpo e me perdi no mar
Desejei teu sonho e me perdi no mar

The Searching
04:00

Here I stand
I see all the ashes and thorns
On my pillow for you I sink
In the blues and the moods
And I find myself wincing
I run, I run
Towards nothingness,
There's tears on my window
The wind will show
What you have concealed
But my heart is not healed.... Healed...
Une autre vague
Je ne cherche q'une autre vague
Un autre vouleur
Je ne cherche q'une autre vouleur
À nouveau
Here I grieve
The cuts on my chest and
The scars in their souls
Black and white tales untold
Different hues of despair
And a scream chills the air...
I cry, I cry
‘til you have achieved
All that you have figured
The blood will drip
When you crack down the whip
And i’ll pull the trigger...
Depeche toi,
Je ne cherche qu’une autre mode
Depeche toi,
Je ne cherche qu’une autre mode
Et tu m’a dit,
Que je ne cherche pas que ça
Mais la recherche...
Est fini.

It draws and dies, for dear,
When she comes over
She still hides her morbid face,
The dripping dew
She bleaches a four wheeled dream
She draws the curtains
And runs away
To where oak trees lie
And orchids cry.
I breathe in black, dear,
As i pour all my dreams down
With the water
Drink those sour souvenirs
With two lumps:
One for the past, the other
For what was essence
Morrow comes…
Love written in black and blue
Stars that rush into the last door
Of delusions. They rebound thrashing
Through a threshold of heliotrope dew.
