about

Wir alle sehnen uns nach einem Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit und Verbundenheit, und unsere Leben sind oft nach diesem Streben ausgerichtet. Doch wo man dieses Glück finden kann, ist oft ein großes Rätsel. Das lyrische Ich in diesem Lied sucht es in Wind und Welle, auf hohem Berg und sogar bei den Sternen - doch vergebens. Am Ende ist es die Liebe zwischen den Menschen, ein offenes Paar Arme, welche die Antwort geben. Wohin führt dich deine Suche?

lyrics

he missed the stars
that laid in black
shone glistening in the night
yet in the dark
the pale cold light
it did not warm his heart

he missed the sea
the waves and sand
all grey and blue and white
but neither salt
nor unknown depths
did teach him of his fault

never just a place
never just a time
ancient wisdom
between two arms

he missed the trees
so tall and green
their branches spreading wide
yet in their crowns
and in their bark
the secret did not hide

he missed the hills
the rocks and roots
the ravens taking flight
yet in their cries
and on the wind
no answer shining bright

never just a place
never just a time
ancient wisdom
between two arms
