Moments

Some moments time pauses We don t know why or when It surprises you Hours slip by like sources And we would like to drink It is the death-struggle Of the present time And the room empties Of everyday life "Supper s ready" we were listening to one moment ago is fading away What will remain from all these hours And all those days which Have branded our life What will remain from all those things We believed in so hard There is behind my prayer of smog Some crumbs of life which are frosted In the ante-room of suicide Some moments everything s wonderful And we are care free about the future And then you carry me away Into a strange night ballet Oh time if you could only delay longer And leave towards hap-hasards roads Taken one morning Sometimes we should like to roll like a rock down in the water And the fog to lift Those fabulous moments are shortlived And we wake up With the delicious firefly s song Which mingles with colours And the music goes on... Like the river joins the ocean...
