Go Home 03:46
Ring the bells at the fair and the sun is up Sleeping in the sky, there are the scarlet clouds All the children have a glimpse Towards the sky, they marvel at the hazy blue Oaks cast very large shadows Scary as they seem They all ran in different directions Did you run too? (Who was with him?) He himself, his rosed up cheeks And his pocket full of dandelions I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go Mister Smile went away for a while now As I’m asleep, he’s awake He works there on the candle light Cause most things you’ll see through dim light He painted our big adventures But now we must go on Realise my own lies, realise my lies Realise my own lies, realise my lies Realise my own lies, realise my lies Realise my own lies, realise my lies I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go home I just wanna go

Little Mouse 03:31
He used to think he was always right Until we walked on that lonely night He flied above the starry sky While I was wearing my blue tie I was having fun with my new friend When he reached for my hand Then we dived (in) the mighty sea Oh, if we all could be free In the early morning I saw the little house Where I found the little mouse He lived there all alone Waiting for the one He was very, very kind Even with that troubled mind He was very, very kind Even with that troubled mind He was very, very kind Even with that troubled mind He was very, very kind Even with that troubled mind I promised him I would find The reason why we are all blind I was with him until the sunrise But I had to go home Said goodbye and flied away For a night it was a great day In the early morning I saw the little house Where I found the little mouse He lived there all alone Waiting for the one He used to think he was always right Until we walked on that lonely night Said goodbye and flied away For a night it was a great day

Flowers 05:17
I saw her standing there (Go on and love her) With the flower in her hair (Go on and love her) She dances around in my head (Go on and love her) And her lips are always red (Go on and love her) She watches her flowers grow (Go on and love her) With her there is no snow (Go on and love her) There's loving everywhere (Go on and love her) Can’t you see the dreams over there? (Go on and love her) Even in the darkest room Our love will bloom Like the flowers that she cares In the garden that we share Birds, bees and butterflies Away with them she flies Blue’s again in my heart Ready for a brand-new start I saw her standing there (Go on and love her) With the flower in her hair (Go on and love her) There's loving everywhere (Go on and love her) Can’t you see the dreams over there? (Go on and love her) Even in the darkest room Our love will bloom Like the flowers that she cares In the garden that we share Birds, bees and butterflies Away with them she flies I hope I see her soon Halfway to the moon Even in the darkest room Our love will bloom Like the flowers that she cares In the garden that we share Birds, bees and butterflies Away with them she flies I hope I see her soon Halfway to the moon I hope I see her soon Halfway to the moon

The Clown 05:07
He goes to town Without knowing he’s the clown He’s traveling around He looks at the daisies His thoughts are a bit hazy His dreams make him lazy He finds himself wondering around Everybody’s slowed down He finds himself wondering around He is the clown He goes to mars They buy expensive cars All he wants is the stars You are you, I am I He throws me a pie He finds himself wondering around Everybody’s slowed down He finds himself wondering around He is the clown He goes to town Without knowing he’s the clown He’s traveling around He looks at the daisies His thoughts are a bit hazy His dreams make him lazy He finds himself wondering around Everybody’s slowed down He finds himself wondering around He is the clown! I go to town Without knowing I’m the clown I’m traveling around I look at the daisies My thoughts are a bit hazy My dreams make me crazy I found myself wandering around Everybody’s slowed down I found myself wandering around I am the

Round and Round Sunrise I can see it all so clearly now I swing back and forth (high as a kite) All the trees seem now tapestry As I leave ground beneath my bare feet You can see them all falling down Figment of light (ever so high) All the trees seem now tapestry As I leave ground beneath my bare feet Try to balance yourself As I spy the green sea Like a climber without a harness Pipe dreams are for me If you think ropes are too tight If you only dream at night: Sulphur, Salt and Mercury Lemons fall, bad souls and bigotry But what am I saying there? For a moment I lost myself You’re just a little boy You would not understand I can see it all so clearly now I swing back and forth (high as a kite) All the trees seem now tapestry As I leave ground beneath my bare feet Try to balance yourself As I spy the green sea Like a climber without a harness Pipe dreams are for you and for me But what was I saying there? For a moment I lost myself You’re just a little boy You would not understand
