Machiavel - moments lyrics

rate me

(Roland De Greef - Marc Ysaye)

Some moments time pauses

We don’t know why or when

It surprises you

Hours slip by like sources

And we would like to drink

It is the death-struggle

Of the present time

And the room empties

Of everyday life

"Supper’s ready" we were listening to

one moment ago is fading away

What will remain from all these hours

And all those days which

Have branded our life

What will remain from all those things

We believed in so hard

There is behind my prayer of smog

Some crumbs of life which are frosted

In the ante-room of suicide

Some moments everything’s wonderful

And we are care free about the future

And then you carry me away

Into a strange night ballet

Oh time if you could only delay longer

And leave towards hap-hasards roads

Taken one morning

Sometimes we should like to roll

like a rock down in the water

And the fog to lift

Those fabulous moments are shortlived

And we wake up

With the delicious firefly ‘s song

Which mingles with colours

And the music goes on...

Like the river joins the ocean...
