Down in America

I sailed a ship right across the sea
I took my love along with me
Hoped to be at liberty
To trust in each other
To love one another

Down down in America
Down down by the sea

We saw the lighthouse right there at the shore
We didn’t want to sail anymore
We thought we’d found the place we were looking for
We were longing for
We were searching for

Down down in America
Down down by the sea

Now we’re here in a land of peace
I guess we’re living our lives at ease
Don’t send for us, I beg you please
We’re staying here
Won’t go from here

Down down in America
Down down by the sea

lyrics: Marcel Ruf


Carry me away

Like a bird on the wire
It’s my desire
To spread out my wings
And to fly away, to fly away

To rise up to the sky
You can’t deny
That it’s strange, so strange
That feeling

Carry me, carry me, carry me
Carry me, carry me, carry me away

Like a cloud in the sky
I will just try
To reach out like a tree
That grows high, so high

I’ll be light like a feather
When wind and weather
Will blow me away
Far away from here

Carry me, carry me, carry me
Carry me, carry me, carry me away
