Blue Angel: Divided / Half Worlds Apart / At Rest |
The gypsy girl stood quite alone |
Her eyes were brightly shining |
Her head was in the clouds |
Where she had found the silver lining |
And all the while the crippled boy |
Was dancing with his lady fair |
While I stood on the sidelines |
Trying to make out that I wasn’t there |
So loud the music grew and grew |
With ever greater pain |
I stepped back in the shadows |
For I could not stand the strain |
I tried to look, my eyes were blind |
I tried to speak but could not find |
The words to say |
They left me lying where I lay |
I could not bear the light of day |
Treat me kindly dear blue angel |
Deepest colour of the night |
Be merciful, be gentle |
For I have no strength to fight |
Half Worlds Apart |
So I lay in half world dream state |
Pressed like a flower in the pages of a half book |
Words in softly spoken whispers |
Steal through the silence of the blue veiled half light |
The best of questions have no answers |
The best of answers need no questions |
Born on the quest for a wave of half peace |
Acquired in a Dresden china cuplet |
Bound in the chains of the half book binding |
Half way to my half life |
Treat me kindly dear blue angel |
Deepest colour of the night |
Be merciful, be gentle |
For I have no strength to fight |
So she lay in half museum |
Pinned like a butterfly which failed to reach its half life |
Tender moments left half spoken |
Lost like an orphan in the pleasures of the dream state |
A man of honour has no secrets |
How can I be a man of secrets |
Trapped in the web of the woven blue veil |
Peering to find the angel weaver |
Most sacred saviour of the silver lining |
Half way to my half life |
Treat me kindly dear blue angel |
Deepest colour of the night |
Be merciful, be gentle |
For I have no strength to fight |
At Rest |
Sleep the sleep of peace my love |
And I will let you be |
I alone can comfort |
I alone can set you free |
I will be your healer |
And give you back your pride |
In times of need remember me |
At rest here by your side |
When the hour of darkness comes |
And time itself stands still |
When voices from the future |
Seem to come and go at will |
I will be your servant |
Your ever constant guide |
When all is lost remember me |
At rest here by your side |
The wisdom of the fool is such |
That he alone is sane |
So delicate the balance |
That e’er the moon could wax and wane |
I will be your teacher |
And show you where to hide |
When all else fails remember me |
At rest here by your side |
Treat me kindly dear blue angel |
Deepest colour of the night |
Be merciful, be gentle |
For I have no strength to fight |
