Sandy, Don’t you worry? I love you! I’m dreaming when I’m seeing you smiling.

And my love goes on and on and on. It will never be gone, oh gone, oh gone. It surely goes on.

And so I’m singing along, along, along. Trying to sing you a song, a song, a song. Keep on singing this song, this song, this song. Try to sing you a song.

And so I’m singing along, along, along. Trying to sing you a song, a song, a song. Trying to write you a song. STORIES IN MY MIND Words & music by Markus Zosel

There are stories in m mind When I wake up and ﬁnd that the night is passing by. There are memories in my head And I can’t go ahead when I see the eagle ﬂy.

Sometimes I wonder what life means to me? Like rain and thunder and joy that carries me.

There’s sunshine after rain, There’s joy after pain I don’t need to see it end. There’s a world in my mind, The music I will ﬁnd and things that I defend.

Sometimes I’m wandering through the endless space And then I’m dreaming just here at this place.

There’s a life worth to life, There’s so much you can give, There is someone waiting somewhere. There are ways we have to ﬁnd, Things we’re leaving behind, There’s a chance to love and care.

And I get high when I look up to the sky. Stars shine so bright, moon is rising high.

And when rain is falling I try to start again To ﬁnd the happiness and a life that is mine…

Sometimes I wonder what life means to me? Like rain and thunder and joy that carries me.

3 THE UNANSWERED QUESTION Words & music by Markus Zosel

Tell me now, I oﬀered you a rainbow in my hand. Did you understand? Did you understand?

I just wanted to be with you anywhere we went. Did you understand? Would you change in case you’d know?

Don’t you know I gotta go Wherever I may ﬁnd A trace of you and me and I gotta be Slightly in a mood to answer Questions to myself. Not to someone else, But if you asked I answered you.

Love is strange and love is wild When you’re out there on your own. No one wants to be Nothing else but free.

You just need to know someone To trust and understand. Don’t you see my hand? Can’t you see? Just take it now!

Tell me now, I oﬀered you a rainbow in my hand. Did you understand? Did you understand?

I just wanted to be with you anywhere we went. Did you understand? Would you change in case you’d know? Would it change, would it change, In case you’d know?

4 I GOT MY LIFE Words & music by Markus Zosel

I got my life To follow by so strong. I got my lane I’m walking on.

I’ve got my songs I’m singing through. I got this day And I got you.

I need to know The sunshine is still in me. I love to sail Like a cloud all over the sea.

I’ve got my dreams I long to see. I’ve got each morning And that’s for me, just for me.

I’ve got tomorrow Each passing day. I’ve got my memories And they won’t fade.

I need to know The sunshine is still in me. I love to sail Like a cloud all over the sea.

I've got my life To follow by so strong. I got my lane I’m walking on.

I need to know The sunshine is still in me. I love to sail Like a cloud all over the sea, all so free. Bound to be free.

5 A SMILE AGAIN Words & music by Markus Zosel

Now I’m standing upside down With my crown in my hand, Cause you’re just walking next to me again. It’s just I don’t know what to say, So, I’m just standing there. Every time you walk past me, ey man!

Sometimes I still hear your voice And so many dreams have gone, But somehow I can’t forget the smile I saw. Cause you’re the girl I never knew And it’s always the same, But I can’t keep that secret here in me.

Give a song to sing as those words can bring My message without talking. Give a smile again in the summer rain - for me.

And I guess I’m not the only one Who is admiring you, But I don’t like to change myself for you. And furthermore I hope you know I am who I am, But if you’d like to get someone unknown?

Give a song to sing as those words can bring My message without talking. Give a smile again in the summer rain - for me.

But the music only gives the chance And it’s so far my best friend. Words you will not understand - I know. And I even don’t know If you’ll ever hear, But the chance of the surprise is in my hand.

Give a song to sing as those words can bring My message without talking. Give a smile again in the summer rain - for me.

SPECTRUM OF LIGHT Words & music by Markus Zosel

Lead me on To that spectrum of light! You won’t ﬁnd there Neither day nor night, nor night.

Take me there Let us all try to care then! Let me see With my heart not my eyes when they’re sad.

Love of my life Why did I leave long ago? Where did you go Will you ever try to know? Try to know...?

We all go on To the place we belong to. And God only knows But it’s us to be strong and faithful...! Tell Me Words & music by Markus Zosel

Tell me, Where are we going? Tell me. Tell me, What are we knowing? Tell me.

Is it something we can see? Is it something we believe in? Like thought or a dream Like a gift that we’re receiving?

Tell me, Where are we going? Tell me. After all...

7 Show me! All of the wonders. Show me! Show me, I’ve always been wondering. Now, show me!

So what can be a real Just some sort of illusion? Just a matter of confusion or a glimpse of hope to see you?

Show me, All of the wonders show me. After all...

Tell me, I reach out my hand. Now, tell me! Tell me, For who else could do? Tell me!

For a moment for a while For a day or for a night, Let it simply be so right The way it once was meant to be.

Tell me, I reach out my hand, but tell me! Right now...

SEEMS LIKE LOVE Words & music by Markus Zosel

It’s been long ago that the ﬂowers bloom. Times of sunny laughter or a moody moon. But to say I wouldn’t mind this time Cause it seems that love’s no friend of mine. Seems that love’s no friend of mine.

She walks like a princess on the glacier ice, With pearly diamonds as her shining eyes. But she is still alone on that mountain top. I wish I could reach right up to her. How I wish I could ﬂy up there - to her.

It seems that ice won’t never melt And then a shining smile is breaking those moments. And till the icy winds softly darken that light I almost think that love is on my side. I believe someday love may be on my side.

8 Backing Choir: Love may be on my side, on my side…

JUST ONE MAN Words & music by Markus Zosel

I’m just a man, That’s what I am And I do anything I can. I try to see, I try to feel and I try to comprehend.

I know it’s gotta be forever The way I try to see the light Shining on so bright.

Inside these halls I gotta fall I gotta make my own stand. And please be sure I do believe In so much we all may receive.

Inside one long forgotten vision No one can tell me what is right, But that sacred light.

Backing Choir He came so far, so very far And he still doesn’t see a lane. Inside these temple walls he’ll hear One promise all again.

Truth is a matter of believing when you are not afraid to fall. Never be afraid…!

Solo See I am here and I have come To make it all so clear. I am just a single man Who’s trying anything he can.

Although I’m weak I will be strong then And I just gotta face the truth For it is true… (Choir: All so true you see…. All so true…)
