SONG LIST 8
A KNIGHT FOR A LADY

⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING – SONG LIST EIGHT
This song list 8 blends triumph with unraveling. There are uplifting refrains, yes — invocations of art, legacy, self-worth — but they live side by side with cracks in the mirror: suppressed grief, creative disillusionment, abandonment masked as empowerment, and quiet trauma hiding behind lyrical cleverness.

Embedded and implied themes include:
Sudden separation, abandonment without closure
Emotional vulnerability, especially male-presenting characters cracking under devotion
Childhood trauma mirrored through adult distance
The invisible burden of creative purpose and artistic alienation
Spiritual guilt, metaphysical loneliness, divine silence
Confusion between dreams and delusions — lines blurred
Dissociation, identity fragility, fixation
Toxic positivity used to mask internal erosion
Longing to believe in soulmates while choking on reality
Unspoken grief — and the kinds of pain that don't scream, they hum

There's a lyrical glow across this tracklist — but don't mistake it for comfort. Many of these pieces seduce with softness, only to whisper truths too sharp to swallow. If you've ever believed someone was sculpting you into something beautiful, only to realize you were being carved hollow — you'll feel these songs deep.

Discretion advised if you're in a delicate space with:
Love you gave away that didn't come back
Creative burnout
Sudden endings you didn't choose
Deep-seated fear that you were just the marble — and they were always the Michelangelo

This list holds both your heartbeat and your unraveling — listen carefully.

(1) 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

(2) 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

(3) 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...

(4) 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

(5) 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... 

(6) 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

(7) 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

(8) 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! 

(9) 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

(10) 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
La... la...
la la la la la la
La... la...
la la la la la la

(11) 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...

(12) 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
