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
 [bad word] 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 [bad word] 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
