Ernie's Reise

You live the story

of the innocent life's defeat of solitude's dice

captivated by a moonbeam, chained to dispisers of your love

captivated by dispisers, lost in the canyons of your mind

Take just another lad

call him Ernie and see him returning home from school

left alone at some old window, leaving paper dreams to fly

hear the wind whispering gently calling you to dream away

So fly away in a staggering paper plane

don't be afraid when somebody takes your game

High above the town soars a little boy in his paper plane

astonished he peers down, the houses look like toys from his paper plane

the wind takes his hand

Sparkling rivers below, watch the green meadows flow

feel your face caressed by a golden rainbow

Ernie never felt so strong

as he was gliding along, forgetting all fences he sailed till dawn

Look the sun is sinking low, little boy where do you go

time leads you to darkness of the night, shocks you with fright

don't fear the shadow over you, it's a bird called Maraboo

he will light his light, Ernie, he will be your guide

Confidence is a strong assistance to you

Hey little Ernie, I'd like to take you home to my nest

The sun will keep you warm and cozy all nite long

and you'll have a pleasent rest - skip on my chest

The tree with the nest of the bird where the sun goes to bed is so high

it touches the sky

Far away a Blackshirt cleans a chain

Hey little lads, get on dreaming

fear the warming far away from home

find your hope in some desert stone

smell some dope in an ice-cream cone
