[September 1989] [The Dreamer:] Morning sun, the only shade of light To carry me through these empty days The wind of dawn caresses my cheek In memory of a life that used to be I can’t deny this disarray I feel The wishful redemption is the chain that binds me From living this life I share with you (Living this lie) This undeserving grief you bear Reuniting with the past A desire that’ll mend this broken hope inside Subconciousness Refusing to move on, refusing to let go Why can’t it be real? Help me Every day My time wasted away In hope to find a door to the past Forgive me, Lil Forgive me what I’ve done By dragging you through these empty days Her eyes so dark Her smile so divine Though not with lips as red as The Rose Unceasing care With so much love to give Yet wasted away by my inability to forget Yet I still invite this disarray I feel This beloved memory of a withering rose The images passing by through my mind (Images passing by) A story of which she knows none about Still you’re searching for a key To unlock this box in me Sealed and locked away Yet open Every day My time wasted away In hope to shut this door to the past Empty days Since I can’t touch your face Since The Rose withered away

[The Dreamer:] Misty morning unveils my despair Exposed in an open bed Unknowing of what I will do Unwilling too Memories, they inhabit me Persisting pain every day I’m waiting for the storm to come Will I dare to go? Just one last attempt To seal me away To be gazed upon nevermore But then, light suddenly fills the room A calling out for me Light Shivering right through me A piece that died just came back to me now Speak The voice I want to hear Is there a chance to reunite? I won’t let go If I hold your hand one more time I won’t let go even for one night When shadows call I will know you’re still around Questions arise Is there a way to find you? So where do I begin? Is this even real? My living state Might be the hindering reason Do I dare to give in? I won’t return What if I’m wrong? What if you’re unreal? I can’t risk to end it all There are ways to be found Light Shivering right through me A piece that died just came back to me now Speak The voice I want to hear Is there a chance to reunite? I won’t let go If I hold your hand one more time I won’t let go even for one night When shadows call for me [The Rose:] You will find a path leading here Our place to unite A remedy to our pain Just you and me and nothing else Immortal divinity is the title of our story So now, take my hand Find me [The Dreamer:] Do speak to me I need some guidance Though I will find you soon Light Shivering right through me A piece that died just came back to me now Speak The voice I want to hear I know that we can reunite I won’t let go If I hold your hand one more time I won’t let go even for one night I won’t let go once I find you alive I won’t let go of you I adore When shadows call for me

[The Dreamer:] Life, this endless trip over hills and vales It takes us for a walk through a garden divine Time, a ticking clock through sorrow and grief Can bring us to afford a will to make it end But then a drapery fell And light was revealed She removed it all And found what was concealed We drowned in each other With words caught by wind And that look in her eyes got closer to me Like there was no need for hiding ‘Cause she felt it too We had found a beginning Now shared by two Days, as weeks went by Yet they stood still For everyday’s the same You’re the only thing on my mind I could lift the mask ‘Cause she saw who I am Together we could form A kiss beyond heaven Rose, I loved you so I gave you all that I am Stunned by how she loved me too She said she’s all mine We drowned in each other Determined to stay And that look in my eyes Stared back at me I would always be standing Right there by her side Like there was no tomorrow I would never leave her behind [The Dreamer & The Rose:] Our hands gently touching our skin (A thousand words) Floats in the air unspoken (This garden divine) “I shall stay here with you” (“‘Til our final days”) A meaning to life Had never felt so true [The Dreamer:] We drowned in each other As I held your hand I saw the look in her eyes Seizing to be You said you would be standing Right there by my side It’s been fifteen years of empty days Since you’ve been gone Gone

[October 5, 1974] [The Dreamer:] Yet another day will pass us With rejoicing and with bliss Filled with love up to the brim Just like the days when we first met This day is like any other Filled with passion and such lust Though our words clashed into each other The flame went dim and swallowed us Don’t walk away Let’s settle this the right way Don’t walk away Don’t walk into the heavy rain You are nowhere to be found The darker clouds tumbles in Seen within, oh There is no time for these games I know you are angry with me Just get back home safe Yes, I have done wrong It’s not just my fault Am I to be blamed That you might be long gone? In this moment, feeling anguish Where are you now? Don’t Don’t turn away from me This isn’t the time to give up on us Please, show me now You’re still with me And don’t say goodbye Don’t leave me alone here I won’t sleep tonight until you get back What, if something happens to you Am I supposed to do? Shedding tears like nothing else This must be a dream of mine No, this can’t be real, oh I let my fury control My mind overrides in rage I can’t switch the page I can’t believe it Though I have seen it Knowing my faults gives A darker meaning No, if it wasn’t for the fighting You’d be alive Don’t Don’t turn away from me Don’t walk to the light Show me mercy Please, show me now You’re still with me And don’t say goodbye Don’t dare to give up now Don’t walk to the light Show me signs of life Then suddenly Heart stopped beating She left me behind I won’t go on Not without you How can I let go Of the one I love?

[September 1989] [The Dreamer:] Darkened mind all the while I’m here all by myself I shout whatever comes to mind Hear me cry for the while My thoughts are all in overdrive I’m too lost to be found now In my reality Self-loathing is what I feel the most Self-pity and anger will keep haunting me A man is drawing near He claims to know what I’ve been through He claims to know a way to set me free A land where I can be free (The man I used to be) Invitation, invitation A key to unlock my dreams (It’s worth taking the risk) Invitation, invitation A new era draws near (To the man I used to be) Invitation, invitation A gift to unlock my dreams (A new world to be seen) Guide me to the land of my dreams This gift may be able to reanimate The one that I held so dearly and so sound A man to enable my dreams to come true Thus some things will never be the same again A land where I can be free (The man I used to be) Invitation, invitation A key to unlock my dreams (It’s worth taking the risk) Invitation, invitation A second thought to reveal (What really matters to me) Invitation, invitation A song would fade me to dream (A place where Rose would appear) A reflection of my dream

[The Dreamer:] I’ve arrived at a green flowery field Stretching as far as I can see I know that this is only a dream But everything seems so real The grass softly Waves along with the hot breeze It pushes me onward to the blue horizon I walk down the hills blooming with oxeyes Each step guided by the wind Blinded by light, I hear a calling Then appearing before me My one, my dearest Rose With arms wide open I embrace you with love My wish came true Now I’m not leaving you Many years have passed But don’t let it deceive I simply won’t let you go [The Rose:] I knew that you would find me again Been waiting for so long Heart’s racing as you’re holding my hand The first time since the leaves of fall [The Dreamer & Rose:] I simply can’t believe That you’re here with me Once again by my side Ineffable love of mine With arms wide open I embrace you with love My wish came true Now I’m not leaving you Love brought back again No, I’m not letting go We will remain you and me Our love from the past In harmony once again

[The Egyptian National Library and Archives, Cairo] [February 1922] [The Illusionist:] In a tale from long ago I was but a man Inspired by Alpharabius book A new healing formula I’ll try to equate to a magic melody To reach an inner dream I’ll find a way To reach out to desires Through the notes of a lullaby I will fly To a paradise through this conjuring The warm, comforting major Calls to me, invites me to the Cold enchanting minor I hear a melody coming alive I feel it creeping in my ear I feel like I’m going to collapse Embraced with fear as I see no more But then, a beacon of light I’ve found a way To reach out to desires Just one look at my dear lost child Before I’ll step back Now I will help you all With my lullaby I’ve regained the key To reach out to desires And so now, my quest begins You shall fly To your paradise through this lullaby You’ll all fly to find your peace

[September 1989] [The Dreamer:] Once there was a song Tender and deep In a world where dreams Could unite the foreseen Transcending melody Searching for harmony Oh, sweet Rose All that I am will be here Fueled by memories This dream is more than real All that I’ve known Is so surreal and blurred Oh, sweet Rose Come, sweet heart Into the silvery gates Now I see Illusions unveiled Still asleep in dreamscapes I just can’t leave be I have no fear no more I will let go Now, sweet Rose All that I am will be yours

[The Dreamer:] My senses may seem feeble But my passion is so strong Willing to let go of my past Letting go of everything Disconnecting Some distant rumbling can be heard My life is to be split in two My feet are numb and I can’t move I do this for us Take my hand Oh, please take it (Please, Rose) How can this be? This world is now falling down on me Help me, please I need to stay here with you How can this be? I am trapped within this dream you live I’m disconnecting from reality Is this worth to die for? Life turned upside down The more I think about it The more concerned I get Is this worth to live for? Can’t seem to retract Nothing to turn back to Nowhere to return How can this be? This world has forsaken you and me Help me, please I need to stay here with you How can this be? Her lost soul is staring right at me You’re the only one I need You are the only one I need

[The Dreamer:] Here Floating in the air Inside this empty space Staring into black As I long to see her face I’m calling out her name An empty ghost What’s there to blame? (Why?) I, I reach out my hand Through the white and shiny mist That reflects her face That’s fading away Another day has gone But what happened to you? Tell me, dear Tell me why my hand falls through your face And those eyes Where I found love, now start to decay All the time I spent on dreaming being here with you Tell me now Why I’m falling through Help I can’t find a way of healing this day Make me stay here with you As she drowns In seas of sorrow, I hold my breath Swimming to Save the one I longed for my whole life Getting near I reach my hand as she fades away One last kiss Without detection, leading to tears Save her now God, curse this day Tell me now Why she fades away Dark dimension raised from sorrow In this once beautiful place This place that made Me unite with that lost life Supposed to be a holy grail for me This magical world Transcending away That eternal dream Is darkened from light Corrupt lullaby You trapped me in this world If I can just go back I’ll start over again Lily If I’m given one more chance I will turn around And tell her I was wrong I am through regretting the past Please, help me escape From this corrupted lullaby If I’d be given one more chance I would turn around And tell her I was wrong I am through regretting the past Please, help me escape From this corrupted lullaby Light Fading grace Allow me to escape

[The Dreamer:] The sky is fading away Before my very eyes This broken simulation Is trapping my soul I’m cold and all alone The Rose is no more The winter’s drawing closer How could I believe? Curse you, Illusionist In fury I shout Shall I yield to this day? And let go of all? Why have you done this to me? You’ve shattered my world Why didn’t you tell me of its mysteries? You must have known I stand in oblivion I fear there’s nowhere to run Trapped in this dream My ending theme But something’s engaging me I welcome this epiphany I’ll wake up An echoing voice in this chamber Is calling for me I feel there’s a way out From this delusory place One last fight I will find the gateway back home No longer regret the past I will run back to a life I shall embrace There’s almost nothing left I barely know if I’m still here The black ground is holding me down Can’t go on Can’t feel myself (My senses fade away) Detaching my mind from my soul (It fades away) Heart turns to stone (Much heavier than before) But I need to reach Lily again

[The Dreamer:] Light not far ahead It shines through the fading mist Could this be the way? I slowly feel warmer The clouds of rain are gone I’m somehow gaining back myself Oh, this familiar voice next to me Yet I can’t see a thing I now realize My state and condition through The words of doctors and Lily Now I have returned For how long I don’t know Is it too late for me to wake up? For once in my life I’ll let go of myself I see now through Lily’s eyes What I’ve done myself The years she might spend alone I must make sure to reach her Before it’ll be too late Our dreams, this lullaby Shows to heal and be sealed Yet I, became so blind Now I see She was always there for me Lily I’m sorry Forgive me Forgive me Life, this endless trip Over valleys and hills Hope always finds a way Let go of the past A new chapter awaits The blank page is always there To fill with stories yet untold Freedom’s calling Go on My dearest Lily Reach a new dawn Freedom’s calling For both of us I now bid you farewell It is time for me to go Hear my whisper in the wind It will show you the way Now it is time To let go of myself The pain now through Lily’s eyes I hope you’ll understand My eyes open suddenly A silent message of a thousand words And now through her eyes I now realize A new hope has been restored Through the Lullaby And I’ll carry on In this world through you
