Smiling at the dreams 
I saw when looking into the mirror
when hope filled my heart
and my mind sang along
life played me a sad song
every time I looked into the mirror
and wished to dance to a happy tune
life would play me a sad song.

Just when dreams
were becoming beautifully real
when I found a heart
where I did belong
wanting to hold her hand and
dance to a happy tune
life played me a sad song.

Chasing rainbows
chasing butterflies
always two steps behind
catching up as I would near
thinking the stars had finally aligned
but before long
life would play me a sad song.

Now the ride’s about to end
and submitted to woe had I 
life again played me a sad song
and not before long
this time a glimmer did I see
the tune was my cue all along
only if I had seen before
the right for me in what
I thought all along was wrong
the sweetness of knowing
the bitterness of losing out
in trying to make me happy
one last time
life had played me a sad song.

Die Nacht ist zum Schlafen

By Silvan Wibeau

Geht darum, sich nicht in sich selbst zurückzuziehen, darum Dinge nicht abzutun und sie aufzugeben, nur weil sie dir in einem Moment sehr fern sind, darum nicht alles zu dramatisieren, sondern abzuwarten und zu merken dass alles wieder okay kommt undsoundso und so .. hab ich mir beim Schreiben sehr langsam und walzerig vorgestellt aber dunno..
