When the Muse came into Town

Songs & Lyrics

When the Muse came into town
wearing a snow-white velvet gown
when the sun, lightened her face
my eyes were blinded by beauty and grace

From one day I go into the next I fly
whirlwinds taking me into the sky
and nothing else matters anymore
when the muse is knocking at my door

When she took me by the hand
on the doorstep of a mystic land
all of a sudden, I heard a voice
Music Man you’ve got a choice

In my land you may always dwell
but play your music or I break the spell
I’m the dream you have dreamt
the siren song that was heaven sent

Horny Vamp

Songs & Lyrics

She’s a vampire
but she won’t bite
she’s a vampire
she’s out of sight

she’s a vampire
she steals your heart
for the moon
is ready to part

on the night shift
asleep at day
a pale diamond
a moonlight serenade

She loves to play the cello
a little slow and mellow
move her fingers on a string
and make you think you’re the king

Like a fairy
with round cheeks
she always finds
but never seeks
Vampire …

Dream a dream girl

Songs & Lyrics

When the dream girl sighs
she’ll take you away
over the mystic doorstep to a forest….
Far away
She will paint in colors on the wall of fate
she will draw the curtains of a translucent state

The dream girl couldn’t sleep at night
she’s busy invading dreams
sowing the seeds of love
on a lucid reverie

She will hunt you down
and haunt your dream
of love and emotion and silent screams
She will linger on
face the mirror of your soul
like a newborn baby without a goal

The dream girl couldn’t sleep at night
she’s busy invading dreams
sowing the seeds of love
on a lucid reverie

Dream girl, dream a dream girl

Serene

Songs & Lyrics

Serene i feel the embrace of a smile
and all i want is to stay for a while
the island dream slumbers in here
the sirens song like a whisper in my ear

serene like a dream taking me away
serene like the night encounters the day
the doors of your room lead me back to the isle
where songs are made with the embrace
of a smile

Crawling the waves of my soul
I hear the song that makes me feel whole
the touch of your wings make me fly
and I …. feel serene

Serene like a dream taking me away
serene like the night encounters the day
and the doors of your room lead me back to the isle
where songs are made with the embrace of a smile

Stranded Siren

Songs & Lyrics

The siren used to come out and play
like a muse, she showed the way
her songs blew the night away
and gave birth to a brighter day

Slowly slip sliding away
it led the senses allay
like a flower in a field of May
like a soul on all saint’s day

Now the shores are full of hearsay
about the siren stranded today
how the sun turned her into clay
and the siren won’t sing today

Stranded today on the sand she lay
like a flower in May that was blown away

the siren won’t sing today

Shores of Desire

Songs & Lyrics

We’re going down down the river
from the source to the sea the river flows perpetually

The eternal shores that smell of desire
on which I’ll be washed again and again
from darker skies into brighter heavens
real poems never end

Take my hand for a walk
on the paths that seem unknown
cause I’m floating down the river
bound to drown into the sea

From the source to the sea the river flows perpetually
and we’re going down down the river

Must I pass all the valleys of feelings
Must I creep through the gutters of decay
And is it true that we have chosen
Never to ask for a way

Take my hand for a walk
on the paths that seem unknown
cause I’m floating down the river
bound to drown into the sea

From the source to the sea
the river flows perpetually
and we’re going down
down the river

Dark End of the Day

Songs & Lyrics

Will you ever go down into the town
where the angels would kneel down and cry
and tell the stories of the great wonder why

The angel said:
When you walk on the road of life
you can see tears rolling by
you feel sorrow and you feel joy

Thousand mountains you climb
never reaching your aim
you’re waiting for something
for something that won’t come

Black waves of raging water will throw you ashore
and the hazy dew of newer mornings will call out for more

like a torch you will light up
for a while you’ll glow
but you fade, fade away
into the dark end of the day
