Moonrise Soloversion
by Corny Held
3:16 min.
(English)
lyrics
Moon rises over the forest,
moon rises over the town
Moon flying white horses
moonlight is pouring down - like milk
Moonlight is all around
Keeps dripping on the ground
All things begin to float
Drowse - daytime in a boat
And it's dripping from trees
and dancing on seas
and streaming over meadows
creating beautiful shadows,
*
Strange voices out of water,
strange voices in the wind
Strange features, night's daughters
mild creatures, songs they sing - like silk
Knowing a lullaby
breathe veils around the sky
sounds drizzling out silence
trying to drown violence
they know what rest is,
they can give peace,
and they don't disturb a lover
and offer wonderers cover.
*
They can as well flood wisdom with tears
Those they don't like
will only sense fright and fears -
It's dangerous - rapturous - treacherous
*
Moon rises over the forest
mild mellow over the town
Narcotic resources
spilt moonlight pouring down - like milk.

See You Tonight
by Corny Held
3:55 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Andrea Bollig: bass, backing voc.
Markus Kerner: e-guitar
lyrics
The world is drowning in the misty fields
Lights are floating on the river
The sky above is crimson and unreal
A breeze is singing, willows shiver
& then a vision creeps into my mind
& makes me see what's gonna be -
I know I want it
I want to see you tonight
And then a mood is crawling over me
I feel my goosebumps to the soles of my feet
It's not a dream, I know it's gonna be
The time when elves and reason meet
There is a fire in the sky above
It lights my soul, it's flashing love
& I surrender -
Want to be with you tonight
& there is life in everything around
& there is life in every moment
& there is life in all the sparkling sounds
& there is life, ist own endowment
Forgot my worries, it is life I found
& all the shadows lead the way - I am coming
Just let me be with you tonight
I want to see you tonight
Want to be with you tonight
I long to see you tonight
Gonna be with you tonight
I'm gonna see you tonight

Fly, Time, Fly
by Corny Held
4:52 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Volker Kamp: bass
Markus Kaiser: e-guitar, backing voc.
lyrics
I remember there was a garden
and a place for love to be
I remember a time without worries
Good and evil could meet in peace.
Life bid me: Take me easy!
I'll grow for you whatever you need
But I was young and foolish
and all these things meant nothing to me
Fly, time, fly
passing me by or taking me high
leave me behind, it'll all be all right
with no way and no schedule
and no reason why
Fly, time, fly
In a field down by the river
my love and I did stand
and on my yearning shoulder
moonlight laid its cold white hand
Love bid me: Take me easy!
cause the world knows more than me
But I was young and foolish
with nothing I would agree
Now weeds grow in the garden
and love still haunts my brain
I'm older but not wiser
I'd do the same again
The world says: Take me easy!
but the wind is full of tears
You must remain young and foolish
or it all might disappear

More 
=> More

Be My Baby
by Corny Held
3:57 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Michael Thieme: bass
André Urban: e-guitar
lyrics
Some folks live diamonds,
some love stone
Some don't feel bad
when they're alone
I don't want diamonds
Don't care about stone
and I don't love being alone
Why don't you stay
for a while or a day
and be my Baby...
Some build on concrete,
some on sand
Some never need
a helping hand
I build on nothing
Don't care about home
But there are times
I want a friend
So
Why don't you stay
for a while or a day
and be my Baby ...

The Merman
by Corny Held
4:29 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Martin Wesolowski: bass
Günther Ernst: percussion
lyrics
I went down to the ocean in the late afternoon
I sat down by the water which reflected the moon
It was black under mist and I couldn't look through
Just like ink flowing over the white of my shoes
It was always in motion and always alike
There was no chance for changes to give light to the night
Nothing would happen, and it tortured my mind
and while I was waiting I was drowning in time
I was watching the water foreboding some fear
When I saw a cute little green figure appear
His hair was long and blue, and when I looked in his eyes
I could see tenthousand stories from a thousand years passing by
He was wearing a shirt, made of shells and of weeds
and shyly he smiled, that I had to be pleased
His large hand reached for mine, and he said: follow me
I will show you what people are too blind to see
And the merman and I, we then came to a town
where the people were dead, but walking around
They did not look at us, nor back, nor ahead,
and apparently they didn't even feel bad
and the merman explained: "Where they are they will stay
for they have never learned how to find a new way
Some folks don't feel when they drown, it is strange,
and in their sunken world they all wait for a change
I wanted to waste my time watching the water at the seaside
Waiting for changes

When I Think Of You
by Corny Held
3:35 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Volker Kamp: bass
Markus Kaiser: e-guitar
lyrics
Stars are shining in your eyes
and I don't know if it's wise
that I stick with you tonight
I remember it ain't right
to believe in your lies
In the daylight we belong
to a world that's sometimes gone
like a prism you can break
pretty colors for love's sake
I don't care if it's wrong
Feel the heat inside your hands
And it seems time never ends
There's a desert in my brain
Killing fear and killing pain
Saying: who gives a damn.
and when I think of you I fall
and when I hear your body call
and when I think of you it's over
But I don't really mind at all
No, I don't mind at all

Restlessness Bandversion
by Corny Held
4:35 min.
(English)
Corny Held: vocals, a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Volker Kamp: bass
Markus Kaiser: e-guitar
lyrics
Time travels on on the wings of my thoughts
Into a land that I once used to dream of
It's scary to float in a fantasy boat
But time travelled on to the future that's gone
Time travels on, it has never been true
I feel I ride on a gale on the ocean
There's beauty and sand, dead birds on a strand
Waves eat a land which I don't understand
How many times will I travel on
How many seasons more
How many seas will I have to sail
When will I find my shore

Sing With Me
by Corny Held
4:03 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Michael Thieme: bass
André Urban: e-guitar
lyrics
In a frosty night in winter an old witch came riding along
She stopped her broomstick when she saw me and said: Girl, you're so wrong.
You're wearing golden bracelets cause your eyes no longer shine
and collect dead things around yourself so you got something you can call "mine".
and she said: Ride, ride with me ride, ride, ride along
She said: Ride, ride, and fly with me just for fun, like in a song.
In a rainy night in springtime a wise wizard came rining along
He stopped his horse when he saw me and said: you need to be strong.
You rely on what you're seeing you depend on what you need
But the ground on which you're standing It's a mirage, it'll soon be gone
and he said: Dance, dance with me dance, dance, dance along
he said: move your feet, dance with me just for fun, like in a song.
In a hot summernight in a sleepless dream the devil emerged from a cloud
He was the cutest guy I had evr seen he was charming and wise, no doubt
I just couldn't detest him, he was human at all and he made me feel good for a while
I enjoyed him around, and his gifts, and his time and his body - why shouldn't I?
and he said: Dive, dive with me dive, dive, dive along
dive deeper than all seas just for fun, like in a song
In a stormy night in a howling fall there was a knock upon the wind
Then I opened up my empty hall and a handsome young man came in
He said his name was Jesus and on his shoulder sat a white dove
and he handed me his bundle he gave me peace, and his love.
and he said: Sing, sing with me Sing, sing, sing along just for fun, sing a song.

Tomorrow May Never Be The Same
by Corny Held
3:45 min.
(English)
Corny Held: vocals, a-guitar, keyboards
lyrics
We must go through our lives
On a road, once narrow, once wide
With an aim we don't know and we don't see
We don't know how long it is
Can't foresee its woe or bliss
We don't know where the end of it will be
Along our time we go
speeding fast or going slow
We are driven towards an unknown land
We must reach our final home
and we'll go there all alone
On a path, steep or straight or winding in bends
It is all we know for certain
It is all we know for sure
Sometimes there's no final curtain
Sometimes too much to endure
Then there's nothing else to long for
Nothing left that we might need
Maybe nothing to be strong for
Nowhere the old road will lead
Maybe pain and fear and sorrow,there's a way to flee tomorrow
So let the living mourn
When the dying are reborn
We can't live in a world that's not our own
Life is borrowed and is lent
And must be returned in the end
To the queens of eternity's mighty throne
See the beauties on the way, try to see them every day
For tomorrow we might no longer stay

Love Song
by Corny Held
5:52 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Volker Kamp: bass
Markus Kaiser: e-guitar
lyrics
Oh, you can break loveBut then you can't mend it
Yeah, you can shake love and sure you can end it
If you want to take loveYou've got to tend it
If you just want to make love You don't have to spend it
But it's too late to leave
it has grown, it's a home
Don't want back what you give
You can't lend it
Oh, you can tear loveand you don't have to fee it
and you can scare lovein the moment you see it
There are ways to declare love But you can't guarantee it
You may wish that you share love It ain't easy to free it
Then it's too late to leave
It has grown, it's a home
Don't refuse what you own
You can't flee it
What do you cry for?You cannot buy love
Why do you lie for a way to deny love?
There is nothing to die for, so how justify love?
There's no-one to try for,I gave you my love
But it's too late to leave
It has grown, it's a home
Don't you see, life is just
you and I, love.

The Wind Has Died
by Corny Held
3:18 min.
(English)
Corny Held: lead voc., a-guitar
Axel Wagner: percussion
lyrics
Sometimes you feel
you want to stay no more
Then you decide
to open up your door
Fog - all around
upon the ground
Down, down you step,
there's no way to be found
And the wind
used to caress me
And to tell me secret lies
And the wind
which took me higher
it has gone -
has it died? - Has it died?
Sometimes you feel
you want to be back home
See the door closed
and you go on to roam
Where your heart is -
that is home
But pain blew it nowhere,
and there it's all alone
