Underneath

Long roads to the dream
From dusk till dawn
Just to reach it in the sleep
At the edge of the hidden world

Back to the melodies of harsh youth
When the heart was burning and hoping
Away from the fading reality into dreamless truth
To see what’s hidden in this longing

Escaping from the real
We dwell in a dream
To seek another meaning of life
In this endless strife

Tell me what lies beneath
What is the truth, what is the awe
What’s singing underneath
This precious unpainted world

Silent lullaby flows in the air
Touching the strings of the soul tenderly
We hear its call so near
And follow it through the night singing silently
