View From A Hill
Raging waves sweep this heavy heart
Cold is the colour of the dark
Find a byway and climb that hill
Watch the thunder cast the spell
What did you gain from love?
- Don't ask me!
All for the sweetest thrill...
Chorus
I see a view from a hill - oh oh
I see it perfectly clear
And I cry for the dreams that you kill - oh oh
View from a hill
And it's only a moment awawy, oh oh
Love is a rainfall, hard on the head
No escape though you're soaking wet
Leave me blinded by your light
Leave me stranded alone tonight
What did you gain from love?
- Don't ask me!
All for the cheapest thrill...
Chorus
I see a view from a hill - oh oh
I see it perfectly clear
And I cry for the dreams that you kill - oh oh
View from a hill
And it's only a motion away
(A motion away) yeah yeah yeah
What did you gain from love?
- Don't ask me!
All for the cheapest thrill...

Aufzug in Stuck, ein Sanger im Raum, 3
Szenen in eigenwilligen, zeittlich voneinander unabhangigigen Monologen
Wer, der gleich als Saugling den Windeln schon entwich, mit
haargeschwachtem Kopfe und bloss gentrankten Junglingsbacken dem Halse
schon als Heimat stimmlicher Gewander das kleine Beet an tief verseuchten
Sangesblumen stahl, wer, der wagend stand am Jagestrum, derKnie an Knie
vorm Kranze schmollt, und klagend fragt: ward totgeglaubt ein Liedlein,
ward ewig mewiner Stimmer Band? Ob Feuer hitzt das totenfleisch, ob's
Herzlein endet nicht im Takte, der Sange
