I cannot see in the dark of the nights I cannot breathe in the heart of your fire I cannot raise one more tear on the liars I cannot kill one more house of desire ... I cannot see through the hate in my eyes I cannot breathe in (smoke?) of the wild I cannot waste another hour of our life I cannot kill another second to the lies ... Ripped tear, express the ashe We made of hate into your blood Broken moments locked in time In the hearts of your fire

Came to your border Looking back into the night Falling down on the city lights far away Tell me the answer "Who knows the wrong from the right?" Years may come and years they go You've seen your bridges burning And the wheels of time keep turning Like a ship in the night You passed along the highways of my life And now my mind you're always in And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way As she sails across the skyway of Berlin Thought I heard your bells cry Bringing the life to your face The time for tears has passed away Can't you see the night is lifting And the sands of time are shifting? Like a ship in the night You passed along the highways of my life And now my mind you're always in And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way As she sails across the skyway of Berlin Oh, and to think of all the changes you have seen Oh, and reflect upon the way it might have been Like a ship in the night You passed along the highways of my life And now my mind you're always in And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way As she sails across the skyway of Berlin Like a ship in the night You passed along the highways of my life And now my mind you're always in And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way As she sails across the skyway of Berlin Like a ship in the night You passed along the highways of my life And now my mind you're always in And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way As she sails across the skyway of Berlin

Oh Mother dear What a night this has been I awoke in the light of a vision in white The prettiest girl that I have ever seen Lately my love, said the lady in white I have watched from afar, but love draws me near Now take my hand, hold tight, Mother dear Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear? Was it just another dream... in the night? Mother dear, on that same silver night Saw a figure in black by the lady in white He said his name was death, was he right? Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear? Was it just another dream... in the night? Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear? Was it just another dream... in the night? Mother dear, what a night this has been It's so cold by your side, no don't cry, can't you see? Won't you listen to me please, Mother dear Was it just another dream, Mother dear?
