Unbenannt

The fire is burning, whole rooms aglow
and the bitter cold wind blows outside
Christmas carolers sing from the distance in the snow
Children are laughing, adults smiling
The world is celebrating and everyone's so happy
except for me tonight

Because I miss you most at Christmas time
I can't get you
to get you off my mind
Every other season comes along, and I'm doing all right
But I do miss you
the most at Christmas time

I gaze out the window
This December night
at all of the twinkling lights
I'm alone in the darkness
remembering how we were during Christmas in the past
Everybody was so happy

All world is rejoicing and everyone is embracing
Except for you and I
In the springtime
Those memories will start to fade
My mind will say, "you're better to forget the past"  

From the spring rain
Through the summer time
Till Autumn's leaves flying
I get by without you
But when the snow begins to fall, my heart will ache 
Miss you again the most at Christmas time
 

Bevor der Morgen kommt

Die stinkenden Geruch des Winters Haien mich wach aus dem Traum. Was aussehen Sie jetzt? Jedem morgen, Wir haben nicht etwas sagen während in den Himmel schauen. Wenn Sie mir zu kommen in der Früh, machen wir den Neuanfang unserer zukünftigen Tag. Unser erster Halt wird um den Sonnenaufgang über dem Pazifischen Ozean aus dem Land der aufgehenden Sonne zu beobachten.

Opvrolijken

Für Elisa, das wird dich aufmuntern. Weihnachtsstimmung ist überall dass, und Ich haben um weltweit gewesen. Erholsame Ferien für Sie aus der Tiefe meines Herzens.

Suddeutschland

I spend my nights down on the wharf
In unlit alleyways
By the church downtown
Where Elisabeth prays
Come down sometime
We'll share an old can of Pilsener
And listen to the wind
I love you, I love you, it says
Where did your heart go
Did you put it on a train
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Suddeutschland?

You cry, but I don't know
I've heard it all before
There it goes again, the slamming of the door
Sometimes the river calls me
And at night it calls my name
Says "put your troubles down beside me"
Things have always been the same
And neue Deutsche Härte won't teach me
What the river said that night
I jumped into this beauty
And drifted out of sight.

Der Schnellzug

Ich werde der Zug sein, Sie dort zu treffen. Wirst du mich den Schnellzug sein um Sie zu diesen Bahnhofen dass Sie verlieben sich nehmen?

I will be the train to take you there. Will you let me be the express train to take you to those train stations that you fall in love with?

neuen Tag und Uhrzeit

So far away
We live in different time zones; your day is my night
I have been driven by time
At what time I should get what assignments done to achieve the goals

I was awake at 0400 that day when that message came in
Your wish became my command
I made you feel uncomfortable; I avoided reading your virtual images and information
Ever since until yesterday

I have been sending holiday greetings to you for the last 1,460 days
Someone told me in the past
If you truly love someone, you have to let that person go
Now I see that why parents cry when they send their kids to colleges during their first year

It is another city, and another flight to catch
I respect your wish because you know the best for your life
We were accidentally to cross paths as two busy travelers in the same JFK terminal
I still believe in his wisdom as of today

Ich wünsche euch

Ein frohes und besinnlches Weihnachtsfest!
