Wolfsheim - Spectators (1999)

Seven hundert times
I thought of you
A voice of innocence
I hear it calling
I know it's you

Now I realize
That it's just hurting
For the First Time
I feel it aching
I know it's you

Seven hundert lies
Seven hundert ways
To hide the fact
That I am longing
Longing for you

But now I see it… I feel it…
It seems so right
A trace of light
That I will follow
Till I reach you

Ich komm' zu dir
Halt deine Hand
Wir gehen gemeinsam durch dies' wunderbare Land
Das ich für dich erfand
Mit mathematischem Verstand

Ein Wunder hier
Ein Traum gleich dort
Grad' noch hier und doch schon fort
Ich zeige dir mein Angesicht
Doch du siehst mich nicht

Ich weiß genau was dir gefällt
Ich schaff' dir eine neue Zauberwelt
In der kein Regen fällt
In der nur deine Wahrheit zählt

Ich zeig dir Berge
Zeig dir Seen
Hier brauchst du alles nur mit meinen Augen sehen
Und nicht zu verstehen
Keine Angst du kannst ruhig mit mir gehen

In ein großes All
Ganz für dich allein
Hier kannst du endlich mal du selber sein
Im Neon - Sonnenschein
Fang ich dir deine Wünsche ein

Doch du siehst mich nicht
Doch du siehst mich nicht

Ein Wunder hier
Ein Traum gleich dort
Grad' noch hier und doch schon fort (Du siehst mich nicht)
Ich zeige dir mein Angesicht
Doch du siehst mich nicht

Ein Wunder hier
Ein Traum gleich dort
Grad' noch hier und doch schon fort (Du siehst mich nicht)
Ich zeige dir mein Angesicht
Doch du siehst mich nicht

Ein Wunder hier
Ein Traum gleich dort
Grad' noch hier und doch schon fort (Du siehst mich nicht)
Ich zeige dir mein Angesicht
Doch du siehst mich nicht

When I touch you… feeling your skin
When I touch you… deep within
I'll break your silence on your way to me
I will make you everything you want to be
When I touch you…

You know that you'll love it… you'll need it…
For sure…
I'm drawing your lines with my hands
I'm weaving the dream that never ends
I don't play hide and seek… with you… dear
When I touch you…

Aiming fingers searching secret pleasures
Roaming where your river seems so deep
You know I'm going on
I like the song you'll sing… for me
When I touch you…

You know that you'll…

And when tension's spilling down your skin
Love will never be what she once was
When I touch you…

I think of you like I often do
When I hear the rain on my window pane
Gently tapping at the glass
Like your gently touching fingers
Just looking for the smile I give to you

You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one hears
Just looking for the smile I give to you
You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one wants to hear
Just looking for the smile I give to you

And your darkness speaks and has eyes to see
and you know me by my voice but you know so much more than
"Don't fight the walls they're here for all" Is what you said to me once
I looked into your eyes and knew you were right

You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one hears
Just looking for the smile I give to you
You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one wants to hear
Just looking for the smile I give to you

And your darkness speaks and has eyes to see
I know that you can win the, this lifelong game we're in
"Hey, darkness is a state of mind I can go where you would stumble" Is what you said to me
I knew you were right

You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one hears
Just looking for the smile I give to you
You can feel what no one feels
You can hear what no one wants to hear
Just looking for the smile I give to you

It's getting dark too soon
A threatening silence surrounding me
A wind comes up from the islands

When distance fades to stormy grey,
Washed out from the deep of the ocean,
Here I will stand to face your wrath,
While all the others are praying

Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast
Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime
Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast
Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime

No rain can wash away my tears
No wind can soothe my pain
You made me doubt, you made me fear
But now I'm not the same

You took my wife, my unborn son
Torn into the deep of the ocean
I don't pretend that I love you
Cause there is nothing left to lose

And when silence comes back to me
I find myself feeling lonely
Standing here on the shores of destiny
I find myself feeling lonely

I had a life to give, many dreams to live
Don't you know that you're losing so much this time?
Beyond the waves, I will be free
While all the others are praying

Calm down my heart

The love in you, it does not burn
There is no lesson you can learn
And there are sounds you cannot hear
And there are feelings you can't feel

Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast
Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime
I don't pretend that I love you
And this time I'm not scared of you

It started with a feeling
A special kind of feeling
We've lost somehow

Idle thoughts are reeling
I'm longing for your touch
But you don't understand
That it means so much

You leave it up to me
To sleep somehow
The anger that I feel
Must leave somehow

I hear you breathe… I'm waiting
For the morning light
I miss you… although I'm lying
Right by your side

You leave it up to me…

I don't know why… our time went by
There's nothing left to feel
Except this boring kind of anger
That's wasting me

You leave it up to me…

A fading night… I feel the light
(Of) A day that dawns in grey
Overgrowing all my hopelessness… but shadows will
stay…

You leave it up to me…

This time is hard
It's not as easy as it was
With you around
You always stood by my side
You made this world a better place
With just a smile

I waved goodbye
I shed a tear
And never felt for someone
The way I felt for you
And I don't mean… for anyone
I mean… for you!

And all these memories fade away
I can feel that I will lose these images
I tried so hard to keep
But I never will forget
you made it such an easy thing
To feel at home

I waved goodbye
I shed a tear
And never felt for someone
The way I felt for you
And I don't mean… for anyone
I mean… for you!

I read the lines
You've left for me
I can't believe… You've gone so far…
I can't believe

I broke the rules
I know it well
I don't understand myself
It's hard to tell

I saw the signs
I knew from the start
I had no answers to the questions
You could ask

I don't understand you saying
"Our seas were always rough!"
We had to make it up someway
But years were not enough

I will not praise the times we had
And won't deny that I feel sad
The silence speaks for you and me
While we're dancing

I don't love you anymore
And we're dancing
You're not the one I'm falling for
But we are dancing

I will not praise the times we had…

Look at what we have today
I can't live without you!
That's not what I want to say
But it seems so true

I will not praise the times we had…

So many good times that wehad
(I) Can't help myself… I feel so sad…
I wish that you would speak to me
While we're dancing

I don't love you anymore

Walking down the streets at night
I see her stumbling through the rain
A skinny figure in the dark
Her face a shade of grey

Begging here and barking there
Shes swearing all the time
Her fingers fumbling with her hair
A dirty mess of grime

And she starts to cry and she's asking why
Her life's always the same
But she does not see, that unfortunately
There's no one here to blame

"Heroin" she said, "was the best I had…
No more mountains left to climb
The world so slow… all my dreams just too high
To be fulfilled in time…!"

She grabs my arm… and I feel alarmed
Her fingers gripping tight
I see her pleading eyes… so I start to disguise
And say, that everything's alright…

And the reason why I pretended and lied
Is that I don't want to kill
The poor dream that's left in the deepest cleft
Of the thing that she calls will…!

"Heroin" she said, "was the best I had…
No more mountains left to climb
The world so slow… all my dreams just too high
To be fulfilled in time…!"
