The fight is over
The war is lost and I see A lifeless soldier, staring at me Fear and despair drawing his face Left in this godforsaken place Who cares for the nameless so far from home. Which way you're going There is no room for your pride No fame, no glory - lay all aside Life is a star, drowned in the day More than a million miles away From home, from the place where my heart belongs I've been sailing the seas, travelling all the land To chase the golden sword All that time I held it here, in my very hands Till someone cut the cord I ruled the oceans, taking ships in reverse Having no peace of mind Stealing all I could find As I crossed the earth I've had my residences all over space Bridging lightyears each day Only one dream away From the cosmic stage Starlight dancer... A live performance so the whole world will see I'm aligning the stars Universal in art See the god in me Starlight dancer - that's my destiny Starlight dancer... Starlight dancer... Far from home from the place where my heart belongs Free at last- but I've never felt so alone Starless Stardust... |

Ruthless queen
With a quivering voice You spoke the word Shadow came between us Sharp as a sword Gone is my gladness And vanished my pride 'Cause luck didn't stay on our side Leaped in luxury I cried for the moon But the game is out It all ended too soon Awakening came as the belt from the blue At last from a sheen to be true CHORUS Oh my ruthless queen You would steal the treasure of my dream It's the twinkle in your eyes That took me by surprise Oh my ruthless queen I just can't accept our love has been I bear you no malice You show no remorse Love is dead and gone It was no endless source Your sudden leave was the finishing stroke Considering everything grow CHORUS Oh my ruthless queen You would steal the treasure of my dream It's the twinkle in your eyes That took me by surprise Oh my ruthless queen I just can't accept our love has been Pease don't tell me you couldn't care less Well I feel like a ship in distress Oh my ruthless queen I just can't accept our love has been |

Listen I'm no poet I'll show it by the words that I write
Holy inspiration respect for the creation in spite Sometimes it takes hours to write one word on paper To note something down in time to the music Found a nice solution no revolution but it will do If you don't enjoy it I'm sorry but it's not meant for you Arrogance's rampant now words don't rhyme too well Lyrics like impots, only dictionary doggerel |

Remember Noah wrought his ship
A long long time ago It's blessed that he ever did No one believed his warnings, Laughing, shrugging shoulders Asking: 'Is there any need of it?' They found out they were wrong and he was right As the waters rose the cresting tide sealed their fate It's such an old but true cliche To say our days our numbered Life for us is really through There's only one way out and That's to build a spaceship God knows where it's gonna lead us to I'll be your captain leader hero saint guide and king The one who had this brilliant idea I'll be happy to accept all medals For having saved all millons following me We'll sail the second Ark, tickets are cheap You can alway choose a window seat if you wish Let other people snicker, silly fools When they come to grip with nature's rules We'll be gone Are you still asking me if I would take the risk You must have lost your mind It may be the chance for a lifetime... We'll sail the second Ark, tickets are cheap You can alway choose a window seat if you wish Let other people snicker, silly fools When they come to grip with nature's rules We'll be gone Are you still asking me if I would take the risk You must have lost your mind It may be the chance for a lifeline |

Phantom of the Night
(Words: I. Linders / T. Scherpenzeel) A ship is setting course to sea She’s carried by the wind A voyage unto mystery Once harbour lights have dimmed A valiant toy of the waves and the tide Sails in the night The sea has many tales to tell Of all the sunken ships But trident hearts conceal them well Where man will have no grip Laughing at legends the crew shows no fear Though fate is near The waves have taken what was theirs Ships went down, but no one cares So many sailors lay buried in the deep They’ll no longer weep Have mercy on me Don’t let the sea Swallow my life Swallow my life They see the angry rollers that Are reaching up so high Her crew has gone, her sails are red The phantomship still flies On violent waves that are looming ahead Omen of death The harsh and unbelieving crew Suddenly realized all was true Just like the men who were buried in the deep They started to weep Have mercy on me Don’t let the sea Swallow my life Swallow my life Swallow my life Million anonymous were drowned Taken down Into the realm of Neptune See how she weathers every gale In full sail Doomed were the ships that came in sight Of the Phantom of the Night Of the Phantom of the Night Of the Phantom of the Night |

Life was only a cloudful of rain
With the sun never shining on me Sad and lonely but then when she came She was all that I wanted to see I want you to be mine All I need is the words and the rhyme I want you to be mine Still I wonder how some things can suddenly change And yet stay the same I could never have thought life would lead me this way The image I see Is that really me To need you more each and every day? She was looking like handwoven dreams In her eyes I saw oceans of pearls There she was, I felt lost it seemed I could only be thinking of her Want you to be mine All I need is a little more time Want you to be mine Still I wonder how some things can suddenly change And yet stay the same I could never have thought life would lead me this way The image I see Is that really me To need you more each and every day? |

See how she moves with perfect grace
Her jet-black eyes behold his face She steals his heart and gives her own In order to possess the throne A willful queen yet so alone ... Once he whispered: "You're the light of my life" Come what may I'll make you my wife In the end Gentle maiden, you were born to be loved You will sooth me when times get too tough Loyal Nan Why did he push aside the one we adore? Caught in the web of that vain Boleyn whore For that vixen drives him wild People scorned her, said his choice wasn't right Loved their king but they hated his bride Who just smiled Your sweet appearance always brings me delight Whenever I'm lonely at night You'll be there I'll make sure that you'll rule over the earth Dear Anne if you only gave birth To an heir You played the lute and sang him a song Weeping for his first stillborn son Now you know you're in disgrace Seeking comfort, immersed in sad memories You will die but he'll never be free For the rest of his days Cause he'll hear your voice in every song Your vision will haunt him when you are gone Echoes of your mocking laugh His sons will die so your death just won't be in vain For your daughter she will reign On your behalf |

Finding the treasures that lay hidden in my lonely cave
Holding the secrets which were born inside this crystal grave I'm the seeker my mind's my tool Call me magician or fool... There's a place in the hills Where I practice my skills Bard of the unseen, a prophet- I'm Merlin My dreams are real I've seen it all in the stars I've heard it all in the wind There's a voice in the dark Making me answer the sign Only the Gods choose the time For the voice in the dark Take a look at the Falcon make sure that I'll follow its trail Leading through the Wild Forest, you know he's in search of the Grail I'm Merlin I know how to cope When visions appear in my globe The sorcerer in the black robe I am Merlin Though my face is a mask yet I know what's my task I'll be guardian of Arthur, the regent, the future king The fire of wisdom reveals me everything The mirror flashed, a vision passed As I heard voices sing... I'm always living alone An ancient cave is my home See the look in my eyes They think I'm a mysterious man Cause people do all they can To avoid evil eyes Making signs just to ward off enchantment but don't be afraid If you're ever in need of me I'll surely come to your aid I'vce been given the gift of the Sight I'm Merlin the Child of the Light My power can strike people blind I am Merlin |

Water and sand
An horizon beyond my view Alone I stand Hearing silence - it's calling you There is a reason to be here and cry I know the ocean will understand why I'm feeling the way I do Tasting the salt And the wind cries her name again Sharp and so cold Makes me feel I have lost a friend There is a reason that I'll never know I couldn't follow where you had to go And I can't comprehend The wind blows away my fears The ocean will drown all my tears Cause I've got to survive Though I need your loving here Seagull &endash; Take my love wherever you may fly Seagull - Carry all my feelings for her To a place somewhere in the sky |

Sweet Marjorie she's talking to me
I only say she's right Knowing her that's the only way not to be here all night Sweet Marjorie don't talk to me Your eyes outshine the stars Don't break the spell by saing love is just a farce She tells me I don't understand her point of view And I admit I really think so too My arguments don't ever seem to reach her 'No politics now, please' - but here we go again She says now this is where we disagree You've got to open up your eyes and see To live a periscope life like that I'll tell you where I'm at You maybe better off dead She's so extreme, she won't let me dream Won't let me love and caress I'm always told to look around and conclude this world's a mess Sweet Marjorie, she's dining with me I say let's order some food Although the system's wrong- the menu's looking good I know the whole world fights and kills and hates But lady must that always spoil our dates I can't imagine that the world would end If I would eat my steak now that it's warm |
