HANNAH TOLF THE PARK

 

 

1. THE PARK

 

watch them play, lead the way

through the clouds

higher up, then we have

been before

hear the sound from the ground

underneath

we are here, they are there

It’s life

 

that’s how the songs began to heal

all the people in the park

all the people standing here

watching, smilning

there was a woman crying out

louder then the others

We wanna thank her for that

We wanna thank her for that

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. CANYON

 

hidden canyon, hidden from me

calling me, calling me

hidden beauty, hidden from me

calling me, calling me

 

home is

where there’s sun

sun

sun

sun

 

hidden bruises, from outrage

cover me, cover me

 

home is

where there’s light

Light

Light

Light

hidden canyon, hidden from me

calling me, calling me

where there’s sun

3. HARP

 

without a word, without a

sign, he started to speak

talked about all

that matters to him

morning light, a good nights

sleep a timeless wish

now he’s alone, alone and free

 

fear not, hear not, what I say

everything is already far away

it can’t be stopped It’s like the sea

constantly moving, flowing in me

 

there wasn’t time

enough to understand

because there wasn’t light

enough to follow land

 

searching high and low

far into, to not fall out

when I tried, you where

already gone

 

bass solo

 

there wasn’t time

enough to undersand

‘cause there wasn’t light

enough to follow land

 

searching high and low

far into, to not fall out

when I tried, you where

already gone

oh

gone

oh

gone

oh

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. 63 RED BALLONS

 

oh I’ve been walking a while

with this scen in my mind

and i’ve been trying to get here

to get rid of the fear

 

and then i walked through the gate with

two golden lions and he said to me that

everything had gone alright

and i believed him right away since

he was the golden prince,

the creator of our universe

 

oh i looked up at the sky they were

there swirling so high

on the ground there was fear but

there was no fear up there

 

like 63 red balloons attached to the roof

like glowing stars on a cold, cold night

and when the fire burned out, they took off so gently

and they entered our universe

5. YOU’RE SORRY

 

instumental part

 

you’re sorry

sorry, for the things that

you have done

(you’re sorry)

sorry for the fact

that you’re sorry

 

you wished that she

could stay

but all you could was to

scare her away

but that was for the best

so don’t be sorry

 

 

 

 

 

6. A DRIED TEAR

 

in a warm darkened room

these two people exchanged

words and thought from the past

words about ice striking fast

tell me what I need to hear

you’re the light

you are the sphere

 

with the light in his face

he stared out into the room

he said please come to me

bring your joy

set us free

tell me what I need to hear

I’ve an eye with a dried tear

7 & 8. OMEN’S PRELUDE / ONE CLOUD

 

one cloud

above us there is

one cloud

go

to

sleep

no

more

children laugh

and

no

guns

screaming

their way trough

the sky

 

“and now there’s nothing left here

the ocean’s gone and”

 

no one

will ever live here no one

(there’s no one)

earth

is dead

now

sun

got

big and burst

in two

we shed

hundreds of thousands of tears

 

“we’ll never think of truth again

we know it in our heart

we listen sharper nowadays

to all that’s

gold”

 

instrumental part

(choir repeats)

“we’ll never think of truth again

we know it in our heart

we listen sharper nowadays

to all that’s golden

(last time)

gold”
