Dream (And You'll Believe)

There I stood at your grave.

Tears ran out of my eyes.

Paralysed of grief I stared,

At the cross of lies.

So this is the end of a short path for you.

I dared to question the sense of life.

And in my heart a silent scream of fear.

Raised to a voice of force I've never ever

Felt in the short years before.

Mother, where are you now?

This world seems empty without you.

I can't take the task alone.

The way I have to go through.

I can hear your last words sound in my ears.

Mother:

Time has come to leave this world.

Don't ask if it's fair.

You my son don't cry for me.

I'll be there for all the time".

But I need you here, now.

Mother:

"I will have a share in your dreams.

So when you fall asleep, be vigilant.

Maybe you cannot see my face.

But you will recognize me, believe"

Give me the strenght to believe!

Mother:

"Dream and you'll believe".

Her eyes as dark as midnight, there on one's deathbed.

I was doubtfull but before she died she said:

Mother:

"Don't let me fall into oblivion

And we'll see us again.

We'll see us again, believe".

Now I sit in the attic, alone with myself.

Nineteen years have past, a man thinks what he left.

A childrens room filled with toys and tears.

Memories never die, after all these years.

A childhood that was broken much too soon.

An old and dull mirror in an unreal room.

Suddenly I see myself and I know what I have to do.

Mother, I come home to you.

I need you here now, here now, here now.

Mother:

"Don't let me fall into oblivion

And we'll see us again.

We'll see us again, believe".

Give me the strenght to believe!

Mother:

"Dream and you'll believe".
