Once in a Million Years (Wenn Aus Liebe Sehnsucht Wird)
October reminds me of my home The cold nights, I would wait all alone Watching leaves turning from green to gold... The waiting feels like eternity When waiting for love to come to me Someone to have, someone to hold...
Then Once in a Million Years A shining white night will appear Fairytales are coming true I promise my heart only to you...
A castle, it stands upon a hill Our eyes meet and time is standing still Your smile warmed me like the first summer sun There's color, where once was black and white There's moonbeams where where once was only night I knew then and there you were the one
Then Once in a Million Years A shining white night will appear Fairytales are coming true I promise my heart only to you...
Wish You Were Here Wish You Were Here... Me, oh, my country man, Wish You Were Here... I Wish You Were Here... Don't you know, the snow is getting colder, And I miss you like hell, And I'm feeling blue... I've got feelings for you, Do you still feel the same? From the first time I laid my eyes on you, I felt joy of living, I saw heaven in your eyes... In yor eyes... Wish you were here... Me, oh, my country man, Wish You Were Here... I Wish You Were Here... Don't you know the snow is getting colder, And I miss you like hell... And I'm feeling blue... I miss your laugh, I miss your smile, I miss everything about you... Every second's like a minute, Every minute's like a day When you're far away... The snow is getting colder, baby, I Wish You Were Here... A battlefield of love and fear, And I Wish You Were Here... I've got feelings for you, From the first time I laid my eyes on you...
They say that it's always darkest right before the dawn They say that I must be strong just to carry on But they don't know that I would wait my whole lifetime through Because of you, my love, that I'd be waiting just for you
There you stood, amazing shining for the whole world to see And I knew an angel had been sent to watch over me
So I'll be waiting, hoping, dreaming, loving you Because I know, my love, that you do love me too

So I'll be waiting, hoping, dreaming, loving you Because I know, my love, that you do love me too
I thought of you the other day How worlds of change led us astray Colors seem to fade to gray In the wake of yesterday… You looked into my eyes You had me hypnotized And I can still remember you
I had a dream of you and I A thousand stars lit up the sky I touched your hand and you were gone But memories of you live on…
You looked into my eyes You had me hypnotized And I can still remember you Those moments spent together Promising forever And I can still remember you
Do you ever think of me And get lost in the memory When you do, I hope you smile And hold that memory a while…
Solitaire with a song in her heart But what a sad song to sing Turned her back on all that she knew In the hopes of a golden ring...
Chorus: And the rains came down And the stars fell from the sky Oh, how dark the night... It always seems those Castles and Dreams Fade with the morning light...
Such a sad story That time loves to tell Copper coins shine for the sun From the floor of the wishing well
[Repeat chorus]
So the jewel of jeopardy Shines with each dangerous step So unsure of what we've become What we have and what we have left...
[Repeat chorus x2]
It always seems those Castles and Dreams Fade with the morning light...
Well I'll be damned Here comes your ghost again But that's not unusual It's just that the moon is full And you happened to call
And here I sit My hand on the telephone Hearing a voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes Were bluer than robin's eggs My poetry was lousy you said Where are you calling from? A booth in the midwest
Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks Oh and you brought me something We both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust
Well you burst on the scene Already a legend The unwashed phenomenon The original vagabond You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed Temporarily lost at sea The Madonna was yours for free Yes the girl on the half-shell Would keep you unharmed
Now I see you standing With leaves falling around And snow in your hair Now you're smiling out the window Of that hotel Over Washington Square Our breath comes out white clouds Mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me We both could have died then and there
Now you're telling me You're not nostalgic Then give me another word for it You are always so good with words And at keeping things vague
Because I need some of that vagueness now It's all coming back too clearly Oh I loved you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust I've already paid
Diamonds and rust Diamonds and rust Diamonds and rust
The past is so familiar But that's why you couldn't stay Too many ghosts, too many haunted dreams Beside you were built to find your own way... But after all these years, I thought we'd still hold on But when I reach for you and search your eyes I see you've already gone...
That's OK I'll be fine I've got myself, I'll heal in time But when you leave just remember what we had...
There's more to life than just you I may cry but I'll make it through And I know that the sun will shine again Though I may think of you now and then...
Can't do a thing with ashes But throw them to the wind... Though this heart may be in pieces now You know I'll build it up again and I'll come back stronger than I ever did before Just don't turn around when you walk out that door...
That's OK I'll be fine I've got myself, I'll heal in time...but when you leave just remember what we had...
There's more to life than just you I may cry but I'll make it through And I know that the sun will shine again Though I may think of you now and then...
That's OK I'll be fine I've got myself, I'll heal in time...
And even though our stories at the end I still may think of you now and then...
Is this happening? Is this fantasy? Never did I believe There could be such happiness Feels like nothing on earth Started with one little kiss... I could stay in this moment forever I could reach every star in the sky I could lose myself when I look Into your eyes...
Is this happening? Is this fantasy?
All my dreams coming true... ...all because of you I can't believe its true... ...all because of you...
You are everything I Wanted for so many years... Goodbye long, lonely nights Sadness and thousands of tears
I could stay in this moment forever I could reach every star in the sky I could lose myself when I look Into your eyes...
Is this happening? Is this fantasy?
All my dreams coming true... ...all because of you I can't believe its true... ...all because of you...
Is this happening? Is this fantasy?
All my dreams coming true... ...all because of you I can't believe its true... ...all because of you... ...all because of you... ...all because of you... ...all because of you... ...all because of you...
Underneath the harvest moon Where the ancient shadows will play and hide... With a ghostly tune and the devil's pride... "Stranger" whispered all the town Has he come to save us from Satan's hand? Leading them away to a foreign land... Play for me, minstrel, play And take away our sorrows... Play for me, minstrel, play And we'll follow... Hear, listen, can you hear, The haunting melody surrounding you, Weaving a magic spell all around you... Weaving a magic spell all around you... Danger hidden in his eyes, We should have seen it from far away, Wearing such a thin disguise in the light of day... He held the answer to our prayers, Yet it was too good to be... Proof before our eyes, yet we could not see... Play for me, minstrel, play And take away our sorrows... Play for me, minstrel, play And we'll follow... Hear, listen, can you hear, The haunting melody surrounding you, Weaving a magic spell all around you... Weaving a magic spell all around you...
