Ruby Fountain

In the cold and in the dark
There I am, alone, and shivering
Holding my very life in icy hands

I wish I could live inside of her
I wish I could sleep where she is
I wish I could bathe in her ruby fountain

In the heat and in the light
There she is, surrounded, and smiling
Holding my very life in warm hands

She wishes I would just go away
She wishes she could forget my face
She wishes I would bathe in her ruby fountain

In the smoke and in the fog
There he is, buried, and decaying
Holding her very life in rotten hands

He wished she would have lived inside him
He wished she would have forgotten my face
He finally drowned in her ruby fountain

In the ground and in the sky
There she is, lonely, and crying
Holding his very life in boney hands

She wishes he would just burn up
She wishes I would just go away
She wishes she could drown in her ruby fountain

In the day and in the night
There I am, surrounded, and crying
Holding her very life in withered hands

I wish she would just go away
I wish she would forget my face

I wish I could drown in her ruby fountain

ENGLISH: 

The flower has such a pretty little dress
And I wish I could find out what it smells like

Petal by petal
I'll strip them away
Petal by petal
I will take her scent
Petal by petal
I'll make her mine

The flower is such a wonderful dancer
I'd love to taste her sweat

Petal by petal
I'll strip them away
Petal by petal
I will take her scent
Petal by petal
I'll make her mine

The flower, she grew up in a far away garden
And the gardener always told me to go away

Petal by petal
I'll strip them away
Petal by petal
I will take her scent
Petal by petal
I'll make her mine

Piano

Piano, bring back the man I used to know
Piano, show me again that wondrous woman in blue
The music she made; I foolishly thought was for me

Piano, bring a smile back to my tired lips
Piano, bring some life back in my fingertips
The life has gone out; and my eyes do not see

Piano, remind me of those days when I was strong
Piano, remind me of when the minutes were long
The smile I gave her; and she gave it back to me

Piano, I know now that she loved you
Piano, I know she would have died for you
The magic that bled from you; it came with a fee

Piano, you know the words she said to me
Piano, you know the songs she played for me
The moments we shared in the brief concert

Piano, you know how sweetly she sang
Piano, you know how beautifully she played,
The end was so long ago; of that wondrous symphony

Piano, keep her safe, keep her heart light
Piano, keep her joyful, keep her eyes bright
The moments we shared; close to her heart

Piano, I want nothing from you; but a promise

Piano, as you remind me of her, remind her of me
