Les paroles


1. DON'T FEAR THE WAR

How, can we win the war ?
And how, can we trick the bomb

The day, when we stop the war
Remember, those you once Loved

“The sea will wash me away, if I die,
then you shall remain”

Don’t, don’t fear the war,
For Me there’s nothing to hold

The day when we stop the war
Remember those you once Loved . .

(Barcelona 08/1936)
(Athens 12/2008)



2. HOME

I once knew a home,
Where walls were red, oh red.

I once knew a road,
Where dogs refrain, my name

I once had a Love
That I can’t repent

…(Don’t leave)…



3. THE DUNES

I met you in the dunes. If only,.
The lovely flowers that bloom.

I Loved you in the dunes…
The lonely hearts that bloom.

You ‘d Love me if the dunes…
Loved the flowers that bloom.



4. TEAR

Wake your fears, and you will know
Dry your tears and you will know

Come clear, and you will know
When you’re near, we just don’t know

Say what you want, don’t change, for we all love the change of Hearts



5. (LIKE WE DO IN) JANUARY

All, the birds,
Know, but don’t say

When, the song
Fails, to hold me

And, in a dream,
New Loves, inflame me

Then, let me down
Like we do, in January.

Come, as you are, who wouldn’t know..?



6. MINUTE

My friend I’m tired
Surrender my son
Weakness is there
Weakness is there

…Weakness..

Brother I’m done
Surrender your gun
Moment is near
Nothing to fear
…Weakness…



7. THE ROSES CAME

The roses came
I know you’re close
We feel your ways
“Alone” so cold

When you came
You found us all
Behind ourselves (‘)
The end, the end of Love.

The roses came
I know you’re close
We feel your ways
The end, the end of Love

Here is the way; I’m leaving today,
Finally I’m tired, I’ll see you in May,
Where hearts wash away in Love and Desire,
Only my heart…but finally I’m tired.



8. A DREAM WORTH DREAMING

Don’t look around
The sirens make the sound
Police and state are round
I hope the pigs will drown

Dreaming, I was only Dreaming
Dreaming, I never lost control

Love comes in the air
But the head of state won’t care
Free at last we stand
I hope we meet again



9. A TIME (NEVER BE LATE)

In sunshine, I won’t be long
Please don’t be long
Who wouldn’t long to see?
You and me . . .

In sunrise the time she’s gone
Please don’t be long
The time she’s gone from me…

Sun shine a light for the time she’s gone
Please don’t be long
The time she’s gone from me…

Sun shine a light but shine for us all
Please don’t be long
Who wouldn’t long to see?
You and me…



10. FEBRUARY

There’s a rope in my heart
That I connect to a rock
So when I think of you
There’s nothing wrong

There’s a rope in the hearts
Of those who wait a single hand
So then I find you here
And I do not know

Wait, there’s just one thing, wait…

There’s a hope in my heart
That I neglect every now –
And then I find you there
And then I know

What the hell did you expect
From those who wait a single hand
They deconstruct their hopes
To find a way back

(For the storms will come with such a shine)
