Presentiments Songtext
von Methodica

I look outside the window
And wait for dawning light
The river whispers quiet and slow
In the frenzy of the night
The stars of Ursa Maior
Scattered leaving trails so bright
They were not united like we are
Stars in the earthly sky
Come on, love, dance with me
Disguise is to banish
Let′s run in ghylls, let's run in whirls
You′ll fire me and then vanish


So speak to me
Talk to me
I will listen to you
I will listen to you
And you say
"We are all leaves and we'd better care
For cold breeze has come running in the air
We can believe, or pray, or dare
But cold breeze has come running in the air
Take a look outside our loveland
As far as the eye can see
This frenzy we live in will never end
And that's the way it will always be
It will always be..."


Don′t you believe when they tell you this is no love
Don′t you give in when they show you the way to go
Can't you see up there the stars that are shooting down
Smashing on the ground
This night is lit as day
But the moon′s not on the stage
And I saw the sky so grey
And I met the coming rage
Wind blows the dust away
His anger on the window pane
He brings defiantly this way
The sound of a far far train
If I walked on a siding
With a thorn in my side
And hanging trains guiding
They'd call it suicide
The storm is screaming violent
Beyond the falling rain
When the thunder voice is silent
I can hear a far far train

Speak to me
Talk to me
Come to me
Stay with me
Hold on to me
Stay with me
Don′t leave me alone
I feel you colder but you say
It's alright with us
I feel like a stranger but you say
I′m always the same to you
You keep on telling me you need love
But you act like you don't
I wonder if you are still here tomorrow
Out of distance, flashing far away
Bring it back, ashes on the track
Presentiments recalling something else's days
Out of distance, flashing far away

Down here, down here

Down here, down here

Take me to where the children smile
Take me to where the sun still shines
Take me to where our love′s not bound
Do it now, I see them coming round

Out of distance, flashing far away
Bring it back, ashes on the track
Presentiments recalling something else′s days
Out of distance, flashing far away
Colours after rain are only memories
Bring it back, ashes on the track
Someone stepping out, someone moving out
Presentiments recalling something else so loud

So speak to me, talk to me
I will listen to you
I will listen to your voice
Your bittersweet words
I look outside the window
Inviting dawning light
The river flows, the corn field glows
Irony of the oncoming night
