Simon  & Garfunkel
Bridge over troubled water

When you're weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
I'm on your side. When times get rough
And friends just can't be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

When you're down and out,
When you're on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I'll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

Evanescence
My Immortal

I'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all of my childish fears
and if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone...

these wounds won't seem to heal...
this pain is just too real...
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have
... all of me !

You used to captivate me
by your resonating light
but now I'm bound by the life you left behind
your face it haunts
my once pleasant dreams
your voice it chased away
all the sanity in me...

these wounds won't seem to heal...
this pain is just too real...
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have
...all of me !

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all alone

when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have
...all of me !

Coalminers' Beat
Land Of Green

 I was sitting in a station bar
somewhere in America,
when an old man came to me
He said:"Can I sit next to you?"
and I had nothing else to do
so he sat down and drank his beer.

He told me ´bout the rocks and hills
about the autumn and its chill
about the valleys and the rain
and then he spoke of former times
about his children and his wife
and about what yet remained.

Suddenly he said :"My son, do you know the land where I´ve come from?"
and he asked:

(Refr.:)
Do you know the land of green
its rough and stormy sea
do you know the island of the rain?
Do you know the land of green
its wondered scenery
do you know the island of the rain?

Many of us had left their homes
never felt the westwind blow again
he said with lonely eyes
they once had worked upon the land
but now it's in some stranger's hands
he said with angry eyes
the more he spoke, the more he drank,
the more he kept on telling ´bout his land
and he said:

(Ref.)

Even though the bar was full of noise
the man began to low his voice
and stood up without a word
although it is 5 years ago
I swear that I exactly know
every word that he had said

I still can see his trembling hands
as he told the story ´bout his land

(Ref. 2x)

The land of green...

Into The West
(Titellied von HdR-Die Rückkehr des Königs)

Lay down
Your sweet and weary head
Night is falling
You have come to journey's end
Sleep now
Dreams - of the ones who came before
They are calling
From across the distant shore

Why do you weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
All of your fears will pass away
Safe in my arms
You're only sleeping

Chorus:
What can you see
On the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea
A pale moon rises
The ships have come to carry you home

And all will turn
To silver glass
A light on the water
All Souls pass

Hope fades
Into the world of night
Through shadows falling
Out of memory and time
Don't say
We have come now to the end
White shores are calling
You and I will meet again
And you'll be here in my arms
Just sleeping

Chorus

And all will turn
To silver glass
A light on the water
Grey ships pass
Into the West

Robbie Williams
Angels

I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old
'cos I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold

So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I'm loving angels instead

CHORUS
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call
She won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead

When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones
And when the love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
