Sampler: 15 Songs mit Querflöte
EAN: 4260360780479 |
Booklet 1 * Booklet 2
Songs: Tell me if it's joy and love. What is going to be tomorrow? Tell me what'll the future bring, our present is just borrowed. Summer will come after spring. Tell me what will be tomorrow. Time is a river, it carries me along Hear the fish in the water sing me a song. Years can be oceans, and a season is a lake Deep or shallow, rough or mellow, anything to take. Flowers are blooming in the snow, there's harmony in thunder. Wine and wisdom make them grow in the grey clouds and down under. I don't care what the season is as long as I'm one with it, First or last don't make sense in a timeless world, let's have it all at once. Wintertime lover, will you be here in spring? Will the lark in the meadow carry a ring? Summertime lover, will you be here in fall? Late or early have no meaning, let's Just have it all. Good night, sleep well, winter tale, meet you in the morning. Next time we are born again, lulled to dreaming of summer, Told by raindrops on the roof, sung by storms and fairies: Pale is your ice and you fake delight and your crystal spirit's feeble. Tender your power, power of words told, Resting on bridges over the cold. Sleep well, you nightmares, power of chains In trance - See the daylight in the night, all the elves wake up and dance. Ride on spring's humming till it'll change its tune Leave out what is coming, it's coming too soon. * . . * * . * . . . * .

lyrics
Want to be your lady, like I used to be
And I hope maybe we're gonna meet
You're gone and I'm only longing and lonely
I'm missing you
You're just a handsome guy I know
Walking with you was a show
What you've been doing
I don't want to know
And I can't live without your love any more.
Want to be your lady, be it again
And I hope maybe we're still friends
But now I fell only Low and lonely
I am missing you
If you have time, come over now
I want to see you anyhow
I have been missing you so much
I long to hear you, to feel your touch
And I can't live without your love any more

Day Dream Soloversion
by Corny Held
4:16 min.
(English)
Corny Held: Vocals, guitar, flute
Hans Schulz: backing vocals
lyrics
When you see me doing nothing I am not wasting time
When you see me doing I might be feeling fine
Cause I am where I want, lost in my mind
Have you ever tried a day dream, try and see what you find.
There are people who are busy trying to catch a bit of time
But this way they won't grasp it, and they don't see the sun shine
Life is not just outside, it takes place in your mind
Have you ever tried a day dream, try and see what you find.
Don't say it's good for nothing if you're able to dream
Don't say its not true, just because it's not real
Time passes anyway, if you feel it or not,
Watch out, it'll grab the things you think you have got
When you're low and don't know if there is freedom of a kind
When you cannot relax and you fear what's behind
Looking so hard for something that can ease your mind
Have you ever tried a day dream, try and see what you find.
There are times when I'm lost in a day dream

Birthday Present
by Corny Held
2:52 min.
(English)
Axel Wagner: drums
Corny Held: vocals, guitars, flute, bass
lyrics
Someone offers you a life
And says: I won't tell you how long it'll be
It may be as long as a hundred years
It may be as short as an hour.
There are things we got no words for
Some things don't fit in a word
You ask him: What is life?
He says: It ain't time.
You ask how much it is
And he disappears.
There are things we got no words for
Some things don't fit in a word

Fantasy Fair (without band)
by Corny Held
4:25 min.
(English)
Corny Held: guitar, vocals, flute
lyrics
Are you going to fantasy fair
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
Remember me to one who lives there
For he once was a true love of mine
Tell him to build me a castle of thoughts
Dreams, ideas, wishes, dentities, time
with lamps made of wisdom and shelves made of hopes
And then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to fill it with creatures of peace
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
And with carpets woven of old memories
And then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to paint it in colors of love
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
a banner of lyrics waving above
And then he'll be a true love of mine
O, will you find me a magical land
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
Where nothing's forgotten and things never end
Or never be a true love of mine
O, will you make it a festival place
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
And invite those we want and those we create
Or never be a true love of mine
And when you have done and finished your work
Dreams, ideas, wishes, identities, time
Then come to me and say the right word
And you shall be a true love of mine.

Where Do We Go
by Alruna

(English)
Corny Held: vocals, guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
Michael Hrziwnak: bass
lyrics
There are fish in the water & birds in the sky
- why - why -why -
Trees in the forest and time must go by
- why - why - why
But where do we go
There is rain in the air and noone to care
- why - why - why
All the lights are blue and the memories bare
- why - why - why
But tell me: Where do we go
There is hope in the drain & love can't swim
- why - why - why
Peace in the alley & war in the brain
- why - why - why
& mountains stand or crumble, it'll all come again
- why - why - why
Where do we go

False Hearted Lover
by Corny Held
3:05 min.
(English)
Corny Held: vocals, a-guitar, flute
lyrics
I once loved a maid
And I loved her so well
that I hated all others who spoke of her ill
But now she's rewarded me well for my pains
For she's gone to be wed to another
When I saw my love to the church go
with her bride-maidens she had a fine show
And I followed on with my heart full of woe
To see my love wed to another
Then I saw my love
sit down to dine
Isat down beside her
and poured out her wine
And I drank to the girl
that should have been mine
But she was now wed to another
The boys of the forest they ask it of me
how many strawberries grow round the salt sea
And I ask it them back with a tear in my eye
How many ships sail the forest
Go dig me a grave
I let you dig it so deep
And cover it over with flowers so sweet
And close my poor eyelids forever in sleep
And maybe in death I'll forget her

Lord Of All
by Corny Held
3:22 min.
(English)
Corny Held: all instruments
lyrics
There's fall outside and fall in me
and fall is on the windowpane
The storm's getting cold, the clouds look bold
the sun tries lighting life in vain
A little candle's burning tall
and flickers shadows upon the wall
No, life, I own no peace in fall
for love is lord of all
and often when our music plays
I feel the moon like spotlight shine
Reflecting the challenge of those days
when your life was a part of mine
I hear a whisper in the fire
the voice of wisdom is nice and calm
We had it all, despair and desire
and life is really lord of all

Addicted To You
by Corny Held
3:41 min.
(English)
Corny Held: vocals, a-guitar, flute
Michael Hrziwnak: bass
Thomas Bartels: e-guitar
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
Sitting in the shadow of an old willow tree - all alone
there upon a meadow thinking of you and me - where you've gone
You had said you're gonna meet me in the morning
Sitting in the shadow of an old willow tree -
there upon a meadow, all the world full of glee
Waiting for you, but I guess you are leaving me - all alone.
Birds do fly over mountains and seas
Clouds are white - they are free like the breeze
In the morning, world awaking, there is sunlight and shade
in the morning, I am waiting, cause I think we had a date
and I'm addicted to you, I just can't help it
I'm addicted to you, won't let you go
I'm addicted to you, although I hate it
I'm addicted to you, and I guess you know
Words do fly and meanings don't cease
Vows comply with our need to be pleased
In a promise, hope is rising, growing colors that won't fade
It's a ribbon, it's disguising, it can be an open gate
and I'm addicted to you...
Sitting in the shadow of the old willow tree - don't know why
Spirits got to get low, what you said seems to be - lies, just lies
Don't believe you want to treat me like you're doing
Sitting in the shadow of the old willow tree
Stand me up again, so that I no longer see
if I want to trust you, but I know I'm not free - and I'll try.

A Dance of Death
by Corny Held
3:53 min.
(Deutsch)
Corny Held: vocals, guitar, flute
lyrics
The king was sitting lonely
on his bench beneath a tree
He was staring at his castle
and behind it over the sea
The trees around him wearily
were shaking like in trance
bare branches waved like skeletons
a dance of death they danced
He saw it in the distance
the darkness in the sky
destruction was approaching
He felt a silent cry
A new age was about to be
born of this old in agony
Rolling thunder and waves so high
with the wind sang a mighty lullaby
The king was hugged by hopeless fear
this was the last waltz he would hear
His queen had starved that morning
like his people had before
He was the last man left there
no creatures lived, no more
the earth began to tremble
the castle had no chance
its stones fell down and bobbled
a dance of death they danced
Now nature's powers united
to play a final dirge
The wailing storms were howling
tunes without lyrics, not a word
Furious fires crackled rhythms
carrying out their purge
Along the raging waves roared out
a bourdon fit to merge
Thus bottled up he was aware
this was the last waltz that he heard
He was the king, he was aware
this was the last waltz that he heard
that was the last waltz he heard

(English)
Corny Held: vocals, guitar, flute
Axel Wagner: drums
Michael Hrziwnak: bass
lyrics
When I hear Ihe sound of the falling rain
Glimpse erratic drops on my windowpane
Deep in their little light I see
No peace of mind is inside me
I want to lie down and take rest
I wish there was a place to hide
Why can't there be some fog around me
I want to lie down
I want to lie down on a misty meadow and take some rest
When I find you standing at my door
When I know what you're waiting for
I feel somehow you're never free
& I need time to be with me
I want to lie down, take my time -
I wish there was a place to hide
Why can't there be some fog around me
I want to lie down
I want to lie down on a misty meadow and take some rest
I want to lie down take some rest
I want to lie down out of sight
I want to lie down, take my time -
I want to take my time to live
I want to take my time to love
I want to take my time to think
I want to lie down
I want to lie down on a misty meadow and take some rest

The Lambs On The Green Hills
by Corny Held
3:25 min.
(English)
Corny Held: vocals, guitar, flute, bass
Axel Wagner: drums
lyrics
The lambs on the green hills, they sport and they play
And many strawberries grow round the salt sea,
How sad is my heart when my love is away
How many's the ship sails the ocean.
The bride and bride's party to church they did go,
The bride she rode foremost, she bears the best show,
But I followed after with my heart full of woe
To see my love wed to another.
The first place I saw her was in the church stand
Gold rings on her finger and her love by the hand,
Says I, my wee lassie, I will be the man
Although you are wed to another.
The next place I saw her was on the way home,
I rode on before her, not knowing where to roam.
Says I, my wee lassie, I'll be by your side
Although you are wed to another.
Stop, stop, says the groomsman, till I speak a word
Will you venture your life on the point of my sword,
For courtin' so slowly you've lost this fair maid
So, be gone for you'll never enjoy her.
O make now my grave, both large, wide and deep
And sprinkle it over with flowers so sweet,
And lay me down in it to take my last sleep,
For that's the best way to forget her.
