Cranes

We're like a boat drifting
in a lonely sea
and the stars and moon
shine down on me

down, down the river we go
holding on for dear life
to the last stick of the raft
for we do love

and he tried to be brave
through each and every tear
and the only warmth
is the warmth of-their bodies

we're like a boat drifting
in a lonely sea
and I start to cry...

I need nothing but you
I wish I could be beautiful for you
but I feel as shallow as steel
no words are hollow enough
for how I feel.

> In Paris and in Rome
And in places far from home
From the mountains to the sea
To wherever the road my lead
I wonder where you'll go
Will the sun shine as you go?
There's all the World, you know
Just beyond the worlds we know
Don't be lonely now
If you can try to be brave
Maybe the sun will come back
To wash your tears away
In Paris and in Rome
And wherevery you may roam
From the mountains to the sea
To wherever the road my lead
I wonder where you'll go
Will the sun shine as you go?
There's all the World you know
Just beyond the worlds we know
And I'll always remember
The things that we said
And the things that we dreamed
And the world we nearly had

> She's been making plans to go
Hit the bright lights, hit the road
To the city lights this time
Just don't worry, I'll be fine
And she eats the food she bought
'Cause its colored with a thought
But the thought could never know
It's lonely and empty, too
She's been making plans to go
Hit the bright lights, hit the road
To the city lights this time
Just don't worry, I'll be fine
And is it all because of you
Every time I look at you
If I look back, never mind
Just don't worry, I'll be fine
Never look back, never mind
Just don't worry, I'll be fine
Never look back, never mind
Just don't worry, I'll be fine

So this is Xmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Xmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear 
So this is Xmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
So happy Xmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
So this is Xmas
And what have we done
Another year over
A new one just begun
So happy Xmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Xmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over, if you want it
War is over now
