words by Nico Fidora

From CD "Out Of The Ashes", released 1997

"A dark cloudy night, no stars no hope. Only emptiness inside myself. There are too many secrets in this world. Am I alive?"

I'm waiting. I'm waiting just for you. I'm waiting.
Carry me home. Carry me home. Carry me home. I'm waiting.
Winterwinds were freezing the hope in my eyes, how can I return?
Nothing stops the time, nothing stops the pain - do you remember, when I was your fame?
Never surrender, never close your eyes, psycho-love games in the dawning light. I fear the morning. I fear the light of day. For your love I must pray.

Image survives, I see the sense of life in you.
You turned away, fate for me is nothing new.

Never open your eyes before the dawn, never say good-bye to me, I'll be forlorn. Save me, save my life - the end. No fear, just cries. I want you to understand.
