We didn't need a story, we didn't need a real world
We just had to keep walking
And we became the stories, we became the places
We were the lights, the deserts, the faraway worlds
We were you before you even existed
Carry on, carry on
Carry on and after us the flood
Carry on, carry on
Carry on, our silver horn it leads the way
Banners of gold shine in the cold
In the cold, in the cold
Footprints of snow, blind from the road
Hail
We carry on, carry on
Follow us, we are all one
Battles fought, deed is done
But silver hum runs dark and strong
Hand to the heart, lips to the horn
We can stand we can say we can be reborn.
Hand on my breast, I'll keep you warm
Hail

Midnight City
Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
The night city grows
Look and see her eyes, they glow
Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
Drinking in the lounge
Following the neon signs
Waiting for a roar
Looking at the mutating skyline
The city is my church
It wraps me in the sparkling twilight
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
Waiting for a ride in the dark
The night city grows
Look and see her eyes, they glow
Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark
Drinking in the lounge
Following the neon signs
Waiting for a roar
Looking at the mutating skyline
The city is my church
It wraps me in the sparkling twilight
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for the right time
Waiting in a car
Waiting for a ride in the dark

Reunion
You came out of nowhere
Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you stand in this land forever?
Across the time and space
A never-ending dance
A blooming and a trance
You make me feel my soul
There's no more loneliness
Only sparkles and sweat
There's no more single fate
You make me feel myself
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you stand in this land forever?
"My body is like a lightning rod
Capsize me and douse me in your bay
A shiver of want, always
When you are on the tip of my tongue
In the back of your parked car
I could build a fort
And play all day
Between your lips and mine
Let's stay here forever"
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you stand in this land forever?
Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you stand in this land forever?
Across the time and space
A never-ending dance
A blooming and a trance
You make me feel my soul
There's no more loneliness
Only sparkles and sweat
There's no more single fate
You make me feel myself
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you stand in this land forever?
"My body is like a lightning rod
Capsize me and douse me in your bay
A shiver of want, always
When you are on the tip of my tongue
In the back of your parked car
I could build a fort
And play all day
Between your lips and mine
Let's stay here forever"
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you stand in this land forever?

Wait
Set your dreams where nobody hides
Give your tears to the tide
No time
No time
There's no end, there is no goodbye
Disappear with night
No time
No time
No time
No time
No time
Give your tears to the tide
No time
No time
There's no end, there is no goodbye
Disappear with night
No time
No time
No time
No time
No time

Raconte-Moi Une Histoire
I've heard about this frog
It's very tiny frog
But its also very special
You can only find it in the jungle
So far away from you/me
But if you find it
And if you touch it
Your world can change forever
If you touch her skin
You can feel your body changing
And your vision also!
Blue becomes red, and red becomes blue
And your mummy, suddenly becomes your daddy
And everything looks like a giant cupcake
And you keep laughing, and laughing, and laughing
Nothing is quite the same really
And after you finish laughing
It's time to turn into a frog yourself
Its very funny to be a frog
You can dive into the water
And cross the rivers, and the oceans
And you can jump all the time, and everywhere
Do you wanna play with me?
We can be a whole group of friends
A whole group of frogs
Jumping into the streets
Jumping into the planets
Climbing buildings
Swimming in the lakes, and in the bathtubs
We would be hundreds, thousands, millions
The biggest group of friends the world has ever seen
Jumping and laughing... forever
It would be great, right?
It's very tiny frog
But its also very special
You can only find it in the jungle
So far away from you/me
But if you find it
And if you touch it
Your world can change forever
If you touch her skin
You can feel your body changing
And your vision also!
Blue becomes red, and red becomes blue
And your mummy, suddenly becomes your daddy
And everything looks like a giant cupcake
And you keep laughing, and laughing, and laughing
Nothing is quite the same really

And cross the rivers, and the oceans
And you can jump all the time, and everywhere

Claudia Lewis
Alone, twenty millions years from my place.
A slide, on the starlight.
Watch out, a new planet right on my trail!
The space, oh oh it's mine!
Oh oh!
I'm lost, in an infinite night trip.
The sun, could make me blind.
I wish, I could bring a girl to my ship.
And fly, her hand in mine!
Oh oh!
Alone, twenty million years from my place
(Is the dream over?)
The space, oh oh it's mine!
A slide, on the starlight.
Watch out, a new planet right on my trail!
The space, oh oh it's mine!
Oh oh!
I'm lost, in an infinite night trip.
The sun, could make me blind.
I wish, I could bring a girl to my ship.
And fly, her hand in mine!
Oh oh!
Alone, twenty million years from my place

My Tears Are Becoming A Sea
I'm slowly drifting to you
This star is a planet
I culinate
The beauty gets away from you
I'm on my way

I culinate
The beauty gets away from you
I'm on my way
I'm on
I'm on

New Map
There's a hole in your heart, begging for adventure.
Play yourself a new track, set traps for the future.
On your own.
Can you do it?
The unknown.
Can you face it?
Shifting desire, shifting desire, shifting desire...
Rules of conformity, heavy clouds of reason.
They're hiding the beauty of your free distortions.
On your own.
Can you do it?
The unknown.
Can you face it?
With your soul, now you see it.
The landscape is infinite.
Shifting desire, shifting desire, shifting desire...
Play yourself a new track, set traps for the future.
On your own.
Can you do it?

Can you face it?
Shifting desire, shifting desire, shifting desire...

OK Pal
What do you think I fell when I, when I, take it with you?
What do you think I see when I, when I, take it with you?
Somewhere else, somewhere else, somewhere else...
What do you think I feel when I, when I'm kissing you?
Somewhere else, somewhere else, somewhere else...
"We're walking in the streets - or what's left of them,
I take your hand, and the city is slowly vanishing.
There's no crowd anymore, no cars, no signals.
But in the middle of the road, a purple and mellow shape is floating.
The shape of our mutual dream.
Stay calm, hold me tight, give it a chance to take us away."
We will live, we will dream on the shadow of our world.
[repeat]

Splendor
What have we to show?
Barren feelings and dust for crow.
We can't ever know.
When it's time to go.
That's the way to see the end.
Glowing out along the river bend.
It's not goodbye my only friend.
Yesterday started over again.
Barren feelings and dust for crow.
We can't ever know.
When it's time to go.
That's the way to see the end.
Glowing out along the river bend.
It's not goodbye my only friend.
Yesterday started over again.

Steve McQueen
I woke up stronger than ever.
Driven by big waves of fire.
To run and yell all the way.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
The world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
I just can't recognize myself.
Tears of joy run all over my face.
My sensations reach the limit.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
There world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
Living for, living for a thrill...
Just waiting! Just waiting!
Just waiting! Just waiting!
Just waiting! Just waiting!
Just waiting! Just waiting!
Just waiting! Just waiting!
Driven by big waves of fire.
To run and yell all the way.
Nothing can hurt me today.
There's a magic inside.
Just waiting to burst out.
The world is a goldmine.
That will melt tomorrow.
I just can't recognize myself.
Tears of joy run all over my face.

Echoes Of Mine
Il est tard. Je cherche mon autre chez-moi, et je prends un chemin que je ne connais pas:
un petit sentier qui longe les usines et la ville entre-coupant par la forêt.
Je commence à peine à entrevoir la nature, lorsque tout d'un coup, la nuit tombe.
Je suis plongée dans un monde de silence, pourtant je n'ai pas peur.
Je m'endors quelques minutes, tout au plus, et quand je me réveille,
le soleil est là et la forêt brille d'une lumière éclatante.
Je reconnais cette forêt. Ce n'est pas une forêt ordinaire, c'est une forêt de souvenirs.
Mes souvenirs. Cette rivière blanche et sonore, mon adolescence.
Ces grands arbres, les hommes que j'ai aimés. Ces oiseaux qui volent, au loin, mon père disparu.
Mes souvenirs ne sont plus des souvenirs.
Ils sont là, vivants, près de moi, ils dansent et m'enlacent, chantent et me sourient.
Je regarde mes mains. Je caresse mon visage, et j'ai 20 ans.
Et j'aime comme je n'ai jamais aimé.

Outro
I'm the king of my own land
Facing tempests of dust, I'll fight until the end
Creatures of my dreams, raise up and dance with me
Now and forever
I'm your king
Facing tempests of dust, I'll fight until the end
Creatures of my dreams, raise up and dance with me
Now and forever
I'm your king
