My Treasures

Good times
bad times
someday
I might forget.

But as long
as I can hold them
in my memory
I will cherish them all
as my precious treasures

as long as I can...
as long as I can...

Drink In My Cup

Drink...
yes, drink...

Drink in my cup
and taste the sweetness
and the bitterness
of my life.

Drink...
yes, drink...

Drink in my cup
and feel my sorrow
and my joy
...in my life.

A Day With You

A day with you
is like a day in heaven...

I feel no fear
I feel no hatred
I feel no pain
I feel no hunger
and no thirst.

I don't know why
but a day with you
is like a day in heaven.

Fly Raven Fly

fly raven fly
and see the sparkle in my eyes
as I watch you
flying high.

fly raven fly
fly wherever you want
but just don't dropp anything
that could hurt my baby.

fly raven fly...

Wind Of Fate

Oh, wind of fate
I beg you to stop for a while
and let me share this moment
with my beloved one.

Oh, wind of fate
if you should go away
I beg you to leave him beside me
....eternally.

Poison

It's not the apple
that has poison
not even the wine
nor the shark's fin soup....

It is the mind that listens
to the tongue that keeps saying
'you're nothing...
better kill yourself.'

You Just Can't Stay

Somewhere along your journey
you will find a place
where you will want to stay forever...

But you are a traveller
it's your destiny to keep on going
and going...
and you just can't stay.

The Song

The song of the beast
is a song of love
but his voice is so scary
no one dares to listen.

The song of the lady
is a song of evil
but her voice is so sweet
everyone gathered
....to listen.

You Are Beautiful

You are beautiful already
it's in your own carving
that can make yourself more beautiful
or remain only as beautiful
or you can carve yourself
deforming your natural beauty
inside and out.

This Road

This road
is not the road
to my home.

I don't know what sorrow or joy
is there waiting for me
but I will take this road.

I will take this road
because this is the only road
...to you.
