about

The story of a couple meeting, falling in love, living together and finally breaking up, but still feeling that their relationship might have a chance

lyrics

Dormitory days long nights
student life easy living
solitary friends clear signs

Dinner for two short nights
easy life student living
more than just friends love signs

Never alone no fears
some is covered up first fighting
motherly love compensates

All is well first home
deeply in love equal giving
future all set

But all this won't remain
No love no cover-up
The search will never stop

The fall can't be retained
Old life recurring themes
no strive no better dreams

Though something still remains
Old love is still alive
Is sweeping through the nights

But nothing is for free
The job has to be done
for being in the run

Do you wanna play do you wanna play tennis
one sunday afternoon
do you feel the same do you feel the same menace
If we don't get our act together

Library days lonely nights
evocation love no real meaning
never any doubt future is past

nursery days lonely nights
old love no beginning
little spark left

Ever since I discovered the guitar as a means to express my feelings in 1985, I'm constantly refining and clearing the channel through which I receive, digest and send out music. I recorded "The Endless Stream Of Everything" to share my love and songs with you. ... more
