Songtext von While I Was Writing

I'm not a poet - i just hear a million phrases in my head I spin around while people lie so peacefully in their beds Then in the candlelight i play the piano and i hear my name I'm coming home - it's something like a wonder that i can't explain Do you expect a miracle? you're waiting While i'm craving for my gentle dream again You were never there while i was writing Will you protect the spirit in the end? It all felt so right 'till i had to battle pain Still i need it - sounds and verses that won't fade away I could never sacrifice my tears to win a senseless fight I wouldn't know of beauty if i hadn't ever dared to cry I slip into my shadow to become someone who writes a song I've got no science so i need the heart to be myself and strong Do you expect a miracle? you're waiting While i'm craving for my gentle dream again You were never there while i was writing Will you protect the spirit in the end? It all felt so right 'till i had to battle pain Still i need it - sounds and verses that won't fade away Do you expect a miracle? you're waiting While i'm craving for my gentle dream again You were never there while i was writing Will you protect the spirit in the end? It all felt so right 'till i had to battle pain Still i need it - sounds and verses that won't fade away
