STARS

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

Where do they keep all the knowledge

And wisdom that's passed down through the ages?

I believe it's found in the souls and hearts of men

Rather than written on any ancient scrolls or pages

What does it take to wake up happy?

Nothing but the will to carry on

What tool do they make to break one's weakness?

Just you and your faith to be brave and strong

Where can you go for inspiration?

I say anywhere… it's everywhere

Even right where you now are

What is the safest way to avoid evil and temptation?

I'd say it's living your life like you're a star...

It begins by burning bright

Become a beacon giving off light

On the darkest nights and cloudiest days

Inspire the will to fight

against all that's not right

Illuminate minds

during their most trying times

Don't have to change their views

to change somebody's ways

So that they stay true

to themselves and all the while

Doing what they have to do to be stars

HALL OF FAME

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

If you were an explorer

You would have found exactly what you seek

And if life was a mountain

You'd be standing at the peak

If you were a miner

You'd find love in the heart of gold

If life was a river

You'd be the source of water

We'd all be swimming along with the flow

If Einstein was a musician

He'd have studied your technique

If music had a body

Then you'd be its heartbeat

If Mozart was a scientist

His mathematics would walk and talk on their own

If music lived a life then you'd be the one

To breathe life into its soul

If we let just the people select

You'd be the one that they'd elect....

Your next step...

The Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame

There'd be a giant statue of you

Next to that would be one of

Everyone who ever heard the words you sang

If all of mankind had a choice

Your solo would be the lone unheard voice

Because we'd all be cheering your name

RIPPLES

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

Safely guarded is the infinite wisdom

That I've been longing to understand

The single key that unlocks all reality

Was placed inside your delicate hands

Yet you dropped your sacred Rosetta stone

In the middle of the pond

Creating countless ripples

That keep traveling on

That keep traveling on

You said you'd rather let it

become one with the river

So we could all wade in the warm waters

And drift along the gentle current

Floating freely in the stream

You're the sweetest sounding songbird

And to all those who have ears you sing

Yes, many of us have been taken under your wing

So safe and warm

Here is where I rest

Fall fast asleep and begin to dream

One single note

Repels all of our deepest fears

You let us forget the past

Help us to find a reason for why we’re here

The single key that unlocks all reality

Was placed inside your delicate hands

Yet you dropped your sacred Rosetta stone

In the middle of the pond

Creating countless ripples

That keep travelling on

The ripples keep travelling on...

STRANGER...THEN FICTION

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

Stranger... Stranger...then fiction

Stranger... Stranger...then fiction

My inspiration isn't found

On the other side of a cloud

way up in the sky light

No!

It's in a little village town…

Cold, distant, ice bound

A thousand miles to my right

Yeah!

I can see the stars above me

I look at them every night

She too can see the stars above her

When out of the blue she reveals to her lover:

I love him and not you

So there's somewhere I must go

This is something I must do

I never meant to hurt you

With a note she left

In the early hours of the morning

Without thinking, without speaking,

Without hesitation, without any warning

Now on her way to see me

She just booked the flight

When she told me,

"Tomorrow you'll hold me"

I fainted...

I fell down...

but now I'm back upright

Yeah I'm nervous...

but I'm ready...

My hands stopped shaking...

but now they're sweaty...

And I'm tingly...

yet bubbly…

To think that just suddenly....

With a note she left

In the early hours of the morning

Without thinking, without speaking,

Without hesitation, without any warning

FIRST CLASS

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

I find first class people

on the back of the plane

Never cared about someone's last name

For I take stock in one's actions and deeds

As oppose to words that often misleed

I do all that I can

not to get caught up in that scene

My favorite person in this world is deeply in debt

Most wonderful woman that I've ever met

I got a knack for finding greatness

Where you'd least expect

Sometimes it all goes so smoothly

Other times it's a real train wreck

ooh..ooh...ooh...

first class, first class

ooh..ooh...ooh...

first class

I joined the mile low club

The first time I cried on a plane

After I bared witness to unconditional love

I've thought a lot about it...

But it's so hard to explain

Some people would never go

Some people would never even try

Those people would never know

The same people that never ever fly

I find first class people on the back of the plane

(back of the plane)

Never cared about someone's last name

Done my share of soul searching

And I'd do it again…

I had my moments of doubt

But never long periods of regret

Yeah, I had my moments of doubt

But never long periods of regret

First class... First class...

First class... First class...

NEXT IN LINE

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

I'm spellbound by your sounds and words

And how well they heal my soul and hurt

Just hearing your laugh as you sing and play

Everybody knows it's become my saving grace

I've been diagnosed with the rarest of conditions

I've got an unconditional love for a certain musician

(certain musician)

And since I'm so lyrical

the doctors say this scenario...

Just might be the world's most worst case

Well, the doc's eyes raised

and he seemed perplexed

When I said I know I'm not the first

but I'm in line to be next....

I'm spellbound by your beauty

but it's not because you're such a cutie

I love your eyes

and how they seem to see right through me

Even though it seems like years

since I've seen your face

I'm so entranced by your charm

We both know I'd never do you harm

Except keep you locked inside my heart

Then never would we part

for it's the safest place...

It's the safest place

GYPSY MAMMA

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

I met a gypsy mamma

One day while I was driving down the road

Would have mistaken her for a farmer

Had her tire not felt the need to suddenly explode

There she sat stranded

With her young boy in tow

This summer trip they had both planned it

But this was not how it was supposed to go

"Can I help you out little lady?

I got a face that you can trust

And soft spot in my heart

For people down on their luck"

With these words she smiled

And proceeded in telling me

She didn't know where she was headed

Only that she had a date with fate and destiny

Said she lived in the same state

for far too long

And that she was a singer

but lately all the words

kept coming out wrong

With her life lacking harmony

she had since stopped writing songs

That's what she said...

With that I paused and took a breath

I said yeah, I play too,

and I'm heading out west

Where the sky is the limit

and sun shines bright

And all the people like to party

like it's Friday night

With big brown eyes she looked at me and said:

"Hey man, you're alright!"

So we just kept on driving

No, she never looked back

That was exactly ten years ago today

As a matter of fact

If it wasn't for a tire

I'd have just kept on driving by

And if I was liar

she'd have left me high and dry

(That's what she could have done)

If she was a farmer

she could have lived off of the land

Yet she was gypsy mamma

Albeit one with a plan

Now ten years we've been together

Creating and writing and playing songs

(gypsy mamma)

As both our lives keep getting better…

To think that all this started

'cause one day everything went wrong...

woh ooh

MICHELANGELO AND MARBLE

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

Alright…

When it comes to minds

and going exploring...

I raised my hands in the air

and yell out I'm all for it

You may leave the room now

to avoid a mind full of questions

You may leave the room

and pace the halls with the rest of 'em

So many men don't understand

What we hold in our hands or what I'm speaking of

As this world keeps turning

There's a fire burning

within minds like mine yearning for love

Like Michelangelo's marble

She possessed only the finest of features

Now I've found what I seek

All my life I've been a student

And now I have a teacher

I love the way her mind dances

Perhaps in time I'll reach her

Seems when she sings a song

I can't help but sing along

Now I proudly call myself a believer

We had a little talk about

Our creeds and our codes

I read to her a poem

That I once wrote about

following what little light that still glowed

Oh...Like Michelangelo's marble

She possessed only the finest of features

Now I've found what I seek

All my life I've been a student

And now I have a teacher

Oh…

Since I first heard her voice

It seems I'm not alone

Either by chance or by choice

Her words carve my mind

Like I was a piece of stone

(Like I was a piece of stone)

I recently became a believer

I'm caught under her spell

I recently became a believer

In the lady known as Weaver

(I love the lady Weaver)

Just like Michelangelo's marble

She possessed only the finest of features

Now I've found what I seek

All my life I've been a student

And now I have a teacher

Just like Michelangelo's marble

She possessed only the finest of features

Now I've found what I seek

All my life I've been a student

And now I have a teacher

She's Michelangelo...I'm marble...

Whoa...

She's Michelangelo...I'm marble...

Whoa...

Yeah!

What shape will I take?

Seems it's too early to tell...

I recently became a believer

In the Lady known as Weaver

And I hope you will as well...

I hope you will as well

I hope you will as well

I hope you will as well

She's Michelangelo...I'm marble...

Whoa... Yeah!

ALL IN GOOD TIME

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

All in good time....

All in good time....

All in good time....

All in good time....

All in good time....

All in good time....

You will find what will find you

So don't let what's been left behind

ever define you

As you learn that the world turns

and time does, too

You know it's true

Let yourself heal

and then become real again and

That's when you'll know...

Your body, mind and your soul

Can love again

Can live again

That's when your flower can grow

Right now your pedals are closed

And I will share your secret

so nobody else will ever know that...

All in good time

BEAUTIES AND BEASTS

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

I can see by that look in your eye...

That you're longing for something to believe in

You can see as you look back at me...

That I'm trying to find some kind of reason

For you to hang on

And for me to be strong

Maybe if we put our heads together

We can tell where things went wrong

One fresh breath of inspiration

Of flickering illumination

To spark the motivation

And bring back the love

That now seems to be gone...

To be gone...

The love of all the beauty

That lies within our beasts

The fulfillment of our goals

That we see inside our dreams

The return to balance and moderation

Between these two extremes

Summoning the inner wisdom within ourselves

That lets us flow as we become one

With the supreme being In harmonious love...

With all living things

SUNLIGHT

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

I had a dream where you were you

and yet you were someone else...

All at the same time…

the most edible of fruits…

yet stemming from the same root

Was your shadowed twin,

who I became so painfully aware,

sat out in the same sun

Yes, you both were one...

But one of you felt

like they were slowly dying

Just which vision is the truth?

I thought I knew but now I know...

When I only see what I want to see

That's when one becomes blind

Blinded by my own hopes and dreams

Forgetting that what is

most important to a flower

Is not just sunshine and water

but where are there weeds?

And as my mind played tricks on me

I found myself being deceived by my own

Preoccupation with presumption

and forgetting all reality...

Sometimes we can stand

within the light and still not see

All because we're taught to be predisposed

To take what we want when we want without worry

Without a thought for someone else's wants

Without a thought for another's needs

Then I got caught

Caught up in myself

My conscious became lost as I forgot

That some others believe in ideals and beliefs

That often are different than me

Different than me and mine

And that that's okay

So long as I find myself rooted in love

Then the sun can shine down upon us both

Then hopefully and happily in time

we'll each get to see the light of a new day

It was only then that I

Became a stronger man

Once I sat back and thought

That it is a better way that way

Perhaps the light that shines

To each shall come at different times

So long as we keep open our eyes

then everything is fine

Yeah, everything is fine...

The essence of all truth

When love is love it defeats all lies

Yeah, it defeats all lies

Then there's no more lying to yourself

To him or her or to someone else

Gone becomes all selfish intent

That too often becomes so intense

It feels like the only feeling you have ever felt

Escape from that

and the frozenness of hatred and fear

You'll find will all disappear

Leaving only yourself and those you hold dear

And I long to hold you, my dear

Yet only when you're ready

will this ship steer itself

Sturdy and steady and all will be revealed...

Yes, all will be revealed...

I've set my course off towards the distant horizon

Chasing the setting sun seeking to find the one

No, not the one for me but the one I am for

Am I willing to go and explore

For it's only the sunlight that I long to see

Hence I sail upon the sea sailing as far as I can

To a new and faraway land not for what I know now is...

But in the name of what could be...

But in the name of what could be...

WHAT I'LL DO

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen

I faded silently into the fog

From where I first came

Long before I knew you...

Of your legend or your name

The hardest thing I've ever done

Or that'll I'll ever do

Not because of fear of pain

But because it was best for you

Sure, I miss our conversations

Of course I miss your point of view

But there was little hesitation

Of course I breathed a sigh or two...

But it was best for you

You said you needed time

To reflect in your mind

About the past and the new

And since time is all I have...

I've given it to you

I've never spoken empty words

At least as far as you're concerned

I've never wished these tables turned

I stand behind my promises

My thoughts and my deeds

And my desire to give you

Everything you need

Whatever you wish

I'll do my best to make

Your wish come true

What you see in all your dreams

I'll do my best

To make those dreams come true

Whatever's best for you...

That is what I'll do

(what I'll do)

Whatever's best for you...

That is what I'll do

(what I'll do)

Whatever's best for you...

That is what I'll do

(what I'll do)

Yeah, whatever's best for you...

That is what I'll do

(what I'll do)

What I'll do
