SIDE A

GOOD WINDS
Dancing sprites
in warm summernights
are playing on their secret place
Divinities under big old trees
are telling tales of long
forgotten days

Thatīs where the good winds
blow over me
and the watercourse is running
free into the sea!

Water-Nymphs are teasing
golden shrimps
while neptune turning the tide
Rainbows are bowing and stars are glowing
when Jupiter goes to the skies.

Thatīs where the good winds blow over my head
and the hand of peace covers the earth
since the mighty first when through universe
an rested for a while, that was the birth...


HOW THE GYPSY WAS BORN
And God saw that this work was nearly done
a green, mighty planet circled round the sun
Silver fishes increased in the blue seas
all kinds of feathered built their nests in the trees

And God saw that everything was nice
but there had to be a creature who looked like me and you - so he realised !

So he took some earth and put it in a form
but the oven wasnīt hot enough - and the white man was born!

Walk on, walk on, you can live in the cold zone of the world
īcause you are used to it, since your birth.
I have to build another creature who looks like me and you
but one whoīs not so pale - he has to get a hotter blow!

So he took some earth an put it in a form
but the ovenwas too hot now - and the black man was born!

Walk on, walk on you can live in the hot zone of the world
īcause you are used to it, since your birth.
I have to build another creature who looks like me and you
but one whoīs not so dark - he has to get a special blow!

So he took some earth an put it in a form
and the oven was right now - so the gipsy was born!
Go to the top of a mountain and look, do you see this land around?
Go where you like to be īcause you and the gipsy will be free...
SIDE B

TAKE CARE OF ILLUSIONS
I saw a light tonight
it shined mighty bright
saw it through my open door
while I heard a thundering roar of something
that exploded down there
So I have been in confused fear.

Got up and followed that blood - red shine
īcause I felt a warning sign
Yeah - it seemed to be Yeah - big misery!

Oh, that house was burning down
couldnīt see if thereīs somebody round
I got a dreadful feeling deep inside oh, I just tried...

I was running for my life
to save the sleeping children and wife.

But when i reached that burning house
i was standing in front of a crowd
of helpless people were staying around
they watched the flames and their crying was loud
I asked a man, who was standing near by.
How could it happen, when and why?
He said, Yeah it seems to be Yeah - big misery!

Itīs burning down itīs burning to the ground
Itīs a lot of pain, when you see it was all in vain.

They worked every day, every night, every hour in their life.
With a faith that we all have before itīs getting late
but you see how it can be, when you thinking
you are free, and youīre proud,
what youīve done
thatīs a fraud - it could be gone!

"Take care of illusion - it shares with confusion"

Look, you are young, and I think
you are not the only one
who would help with that faith
that i meant before itīs late
So go, try your best, save their life
you canīt save their happiness!

Yeah - itīs up to you
Yeah - try to get through!

Oh, they have been still alive
and soon they opened up their eyes
As they remembered, they began to moan
No, that man was not wrong!


DUTY
After running and hiding and hurts from the war
he thought that love must be stronger than law - but he didnīt know.

As they watched their son the father felt some fear
he ran to the phone and said, my son is here - heīs a deserteur!

He was crying when they took him off home
his parents agreed and they left him alone - īcause they didnīt know

They took him off to the Naziīs place
he was bound to die, it was a simple case - īcause they didnīt know

Everytime is living filled up with duties - for others
but not for you - every kind of duty you do.
You do it for a special crew!
