There's a place where we belong


In this proud land we grew up strong
We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail
No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my name, I've changed my face
But no one wants you when you lose
Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet
Don't give up
I know you can make it good
Though I saw it all around
Never thought I could be affected
Thought that we'd be the last to go
It is so strange the way things turn
Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up
We don't need much of anything
Don't give up
'Cause somewhere there's a place
Where we belong
Rest your head
You worry too much
It's going to be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on us
Don't give up
Please don't give up
'Got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
Going to stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go
That river's flowing
That river's flowing
Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down
For every job, so many men
So many men no-one needs
Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not the only one
Don't give up
No reason to be ashamed
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up now
We're proud of who you are
Don't give up
You know it's never been easy
Don't give up
'Cause I believe there's a placeThere's a place where we belong

Heute vor 28 Jahren: 14. Juli 1990 in Paris - Une Ville en Concert

Am 14. Juli 1990 war ich in Paris: 7:00 Uhr Morgens: Blauer Himmel, In der Sonne leuchtet die Kirche Sacre Ceur neben uns, der Blick geht über die Stadt ... und zum ersten mal mit eigenen Augen sehen: heraus ragt der Eiffelturm. Mit einem Blick spüre und erfasse die Struktur der Stadt: Wir brauchen heute keinen Stadtplan mehr. Gegen Mittag: Avenue Champs d' Elyssee nahe der alten Oper: Militärparade: Panzer rollen durch die Stadt. Fremdenlegion marschiert in Richtung Arc de Trioumph und Avenue Charles de Gaulle. Im Tiefflug ziehen drei Mirage die Farben der Trikolore an den blauen Himmel. Es herrscht eine sehr fröhliche und seltsam leichte befreiende Stimmung. Im Eiltempo berauschen wir uns an einer Stadt die wie keine zweite das beste in Europa sichtbar macht: Die Insel in der Seine auf der Paris lange vor Julius Cäsar vor über 2000 Jahren seinen Anfang nahm und die Kathedrale Notre Dame. Der Louvre und die Glas-Pyramide davor. Pont Neuf. Der Platz der Eintracht wo das...

Gute Zeiten, Schlechte Zeiten - Gute Städte, schlechte Städte

Gestern war der 14. Juli 2018 Als Stichtag Grund mal drei Städte und drei Zeiten in meinem Leben zu vergleichen: Tief im Westen - Mein zu Hause, mein Herz, meine Seele Tief im Osten - Hure Babylon? Größenwahn, Agenda2010, Neuer Staatsterror und Neue Nazis! Und Paris ... an einem 14. Juli: Das Konzert hatte mehr Zuschauer als West-Berlin Einwohner...

Homecoming

Walking into light From the blank evening sky Knuckles rub away the darkness Circling my eyes Walking into warmth From the cold evening air Numb white fingers push Greasy rain through my hair You walk into view From shadow thrown against the door Hands reach out and grasp the moment They've been waiting for You pull me close Dampness seeps through to your skin You peel the layers away I feel the fire ignite within You create the feeling I contain the need It's moments that we're stealing No pleasure's ever free You sustain the rhythm I'll maintain the beat It's the only ,chance we're given Let's turn this cold to heat You possess the notion I take full heed We're bound by this emotion Two bodies - one heartbeat You create the feeling I contain the need You sustain the rhythm I'll maintain the beat Desire comes alive Nothing interrupts the flow Water nurtures every crevice Where this love needs to grow Sliding to the floor We swell , falling t...
