Sleeping Beauty

Give me a reason why I should give in

I've got nothing more to conceal

Call me ignoring or intolerant

It's just in the way that you see it

Then I recall days gone by

And images I left behind

No acting for purpose that has to be served

No smile on my face

When there's nothing but hate in my mind

For the tears in your eyes

I will no longer try

To hold on to the past

And there´s nowhere to hide

From that smile on your face

From the tears in your eyes

When I'm alone I keep asking myself

Am I right? – could it be that I'm wrong?

Far too much seen and too many things done

And too many hopes that have gone

So it may be true what they're telling me now

That the old times were simply the best

But there is nothing I have to regret

And I couldn't tell what I like more

When it comes to the test

Women surround me and neon-lights shine

I am trapped but I feel that I'm high

Beautiful lady is smiling at me

And she gives me a blink of an eye

Waking from dreams and reality brings

Me back home to a warm fire place

Where my beauty lies sleeping and I hold her tight

In my arms and the smile on her face

Is the smile of a bride
