My car and me
Your steering wheel loosely in my hand
As we drive through the country land
Am I driving you, or you driving me?
Together we’ll be
We are a strong team, as you see
To hit the road, I’m gonna need your key
The key to start on our drive
When will we arrive?
Refr:
We can go where we want to
On a long and winding road
We’ll drive through the night
Till we see the morning light
It feels great and free
It gives me peace of mind
Driving with you is so ... relaxing for me
I feel very safe and at ease
Neither of us ever disagrees
Always waiting for me
You continue tirelessly
Do you know what we sometimes need?
Driving where there is no limit on speed
On a bright summer holiday
On the German highway
Refr.
La lalalalalalaaaaaai
It’s wonderful to drive
It gives me peace of mind
Driving with you
Is so relaxing for me
With the radio on
I sing along
Often very loudly – an expression of joy
Humanly
We don’t know what to do
What’s going to happen, is it true
Uncertainty
Doubt about how the future will be
The uncertainty of life
The true nature of things
What it eventually brings
Reality
It exists, it’s happening, it’s what you see
The reality of real life
For what kind of life do we strive
For what kind of life do we strive
We don’t know what to do
What’s going to happen, is it true
Uncertainty
Doubt about how the future will be
The true nature of things
What it eventually brings
Reality
It exists, it’s happening, it’s what you see
For what kind of life do we strive
For what kind of life do we strive
The quality of being kind
Thoughtful, sympathetic, not blind
To humanity
Letting all the world’s people be
Let everyone be
Humanly
The quality of being kind
Being thoughtful, sympathetic, not blind
To humanity
Letting all the world’s people be
Humanly
Let everyone be
Humanly (2x)
Dobell Drive
Violin solo
Do I laugh or cry
Is it true or just a lie
Is it fake or is it real
Do I laugh, do I cry
Is it true or just a lie
What I see and what I feel
When I go out into the bush
Hugging the boundaries of the lake
One thing is sure, nothing is fake
The bush is natural, open and real
Freedom and joy is what I feel
On Lake Macquarie, with the wind from the sea
Violin solo
Will I run or bike
Will I just go for a hike
Reconnect with some old friends
Will we run, will we bike
Or get together for a hike
Making memories never ends
When I go out into the bush
Hugging the boundaries of the lake
One thing is sure, nothing is fake
The bush is natural, open and real
Freedom and joy is what I feel
On Lake Macquarie, with the wind from the sea
I always strive, I always strive
To come back home to Dobell Drive
The cornerstone of my life (2x)
Violin solo
Great Gratitude
You Know My Name
You Know What To Do
You Like Me Too Much
You Really Got A Hold On Me
Two Of Us
You’ll Be Mine
She’s Leaving Home
She’s A Woman
She Said She Said
She Loves You
To Know Her Is To Love Her
Like Dreamers Do
Love You Too
Refr:
All You Need, All You Need Is Love
And I Love Her
Here There And Everywhere
Oh! Darling, Got To Get You Into My Lie (2x)
Don’t Let Me Down
Don’t Pass Me By
Don’t Ever Change
Tell Me Why
No Reply
Don’t Pass Me By
Don’t Ever Change
Tell Me Why
Penny Lane
I Saw Her Standing There
Yesterday
I’ll Be On My Way
A Hard Day’s Night
Hold Me Tight
I Feel Fine
I’m Happy Just To Dance With You
Twist And Shout
We Can Work It Out
Good Day, Good Day Sunshine
Refr: All You Need …
Into My Life, In My Life, In My Life …
Imagine
Talent
There is no one just like me
Looking at myself, what do I see
Who is it that I want to be
How do I come across
What are the things that I can do
Maybe it’s good to share it with you
What is your talent, be aware
To develop it with lots of care
It‘s failing, learning, getting back up
Let it come from within
Always strive for win-win
Refr:
Do, what your heart tells you, what you love to do and not just because you have to
Sing your own tune like a bird, one that no one’s ever heard
Surprise yourself
After singing the song ‘You are’
We both felt a little bit like a star
Do, what your heart tells you, what you love to do and not just because you have to
Sing your own tune like a bird, one that no one’s ever heard
Surprise yourself
Solo
The meaning of our being
Is to try to become who we are
With a bit of human charm
Adding value to the world
Through talent, passion and social skills
A life that really fulfils
What is your talent, be aware
To develop it with lots of care
It‘s failing, learning, getting back up
Let it come from within
Always strive for win-win
Do, what your heart tells you, what you love to do and not just because you have to
Sing your own tune like a bird, one that no one’s ever heard
Surprise yourself
Down by the sea
Down by the sea
I walk by myself
My head full of thoughts
About the universe and me
I listen to the waves
The seagulls are screaming
The horizon stretches out
Extends into infinity
The sun warms me
I can hear the sea
A gentle wind caresses me
So why this melancholy?
On the road of my life
Where is the journey going?
Time goes by so fast
Have the dice been cast?
Time is not infinite
Do I understand the meaning?
Which direction to take?
Are we ever satisfied?
Lei-lei-lei-lei
The sun warms me
I can hear the sea
The rhythm of the waves
It sounds like a melody
It’s so easy
Let yourself be rocked
Be carried by the sea
By the rhythm of the waves
Then you will hear
The voice of your soul.
It shows you the way
the path to your goal
The sun warms me,
I can walk through the sand.
Life is so beautiful!
I think I understand
I listen to the waves,
Seagulls are screaming
The horizon stretches out,
Extends into infinity
Solo
The sun warms me,
I can hear the sea
The rhythm of the waves It sounds like a melody
I love the sea
I love life
I can hear the waves breaking
And I … I find peace in me
Trying to understand
I really don’t know the reason why
That’s why I think we should retry
What is the reason you want to go
I really don’t know
I really try to understand
Sometimes I don’t, sometimes I can’t
So normal for me that you were there
With your loving care
Now that I feel
You want to go a different way
Now that I see
That you do not want to stay
I realize what it’s all about
I realize it’s over and out
If this is the way that makes you happy
If this is the way to find your identity
If this is the way, we’re gonna have to go
Each one of us will take a new path
Each one of us will follow our heart
Each one of us will have a new start
I really try to understand
Sometimes don’t, sometimes I can’t
I hope you will find happiness later too
That’s what I’ll also try to do
Each one of us will take a new path
Each one of us will follow our heart
Each one of us will have a new start
Each one of us will have to take …
a new path
Everywhere you go
How many hours on the plane
Always a smile, you never complain
How many meetings to create
Or how many gatherings to motivate
Everywhere you went
Everywhere you go
Always looking how plants can grow
West or East, no matter which longitude
I think our main feeling is of great gratitude
Oh … everywhere you go
A little seed is planted… and will grow
Everywhere you stay
Everywhere you go
Always looking how we can grow
North or South, no matter which latitude
I think our main feeling is of great gratitude
How many visits to the field
Talking about taste, discussing yield
Which new varieties do we need
To be a winner it’s all about speed
Everywhere you are
Everywhere you go
Always looking how plants can grow
West or East, no matter which longitude
I think our main feeling is of great gratitude
Oh … everywhere you go
Our vegetable seeds are planted and will grow
To live by your side
Breathe your breath in mine
Looking at your eyes
Remembering all the time
Together you and I
I feel you next to me
You still sleep
And you try to keep
Try to keep your dream
The morning light floods our room
The day enters through
Through the open window
I feel safe next to you
How blissful I feel
Thinking just about you and me
As I like the bright
The bright summer light
In the morning
In the dawn
How swiftly is the time
Later in the day
Come for a moment ... still close to me
Still close to me
When will I say it, if I don’t say it now
That I am happy with you
Surrounded by your warmth
Your tenderness
When will I say ... how good it is to live
To live by your side
To live by your side
To live, live, live by your side
We try to live our life to the full
Living our live to the full
We try to live our life to the full
Living our live to the full
To the full
We live our life to the full
You took my breath away
When you walked into my life
I didn’t know what to say
You still became my bride
When will I say it, if I don’t say it now
That I am happy with you
Surrounded by your warmth
Your tenderness
When will I say ... how good it is to live
To live by your side
To live by your side
To live, live, live by your side
See the whole world different
What you see is hostility
No humanity
And you ask yourself
Do we feel free?
If these things do irritate
Do not wait
And try to help
Our world to navigate.
See your own world different (2x)
When I realize the thoughts in my mind
I know
If you realize the thoughts in your mind
You know
See your own world different (4 x)
The news is frightening
Sometimes shattering
And you ask yourself
What does it bring?
If this is our point of view
as if on cue
Make sure we think
There’s something we can do!
See the whole world different (2x)
When I realize the thoughts in my mind
I know
If you realize the thoughts in your mind
You know
See the whole world different (7x)
Fly, maybug, fly
We lived on ‘The High Alley’
About 60 years ago
A childhood memory
That I will always know
With friends I was searching
For maybugs in the hedge
In Peter’s garden
We went to the edge
At the edge of what’s allowed
We discovered a maybug crowd
That we collected in a box
We were all so proud
Refr:
Fly, maybug, fly
Fly away from my hand
Fly out into the countryland
Maybug, fly from my hand
Looking at our catch
We thought what can we do?
Let’s start a beetle match
Was one point of view
With a string attached
We let them fly around
Flying in a circle
From the ground
We released them again
And I put one my hand
Ready to fly away
To the countryland
Refr:
Fly, maybug, fly
Fly away from my hand
Fly out into the countryland
Maybug, fly from my hand
There are no more bugs
In our territory
What is happening
To our biodiversity?
What I have learned
From my childhood memory
How fragile nature can be
Refr:
Fly, maybug, fly
Fly away from my hand
Fly out into the countryland
Maybug, fly from my hand
You are
Reaching for
Reaching for love
Reaching for affection
Feeling strong
Together we’ll sing this song
Me and you
You and me
We are so much alike
You’re like a part of me
You are my comfort
You are my joy, my compassion
I feel at home with you
Sharing hopes, sharing dreams
Sharing time with you
Enjoy so much the way you are
Stay, stay ... just stay who you are
You are, you are, you are, you are
You are, you are… yes you are (2x)
Time doesn’t wait
Time blows us
Like leaves in a strong wind
Hold on tight
Do not let me go
I need you so
We are all just like a breeze
Nothing will remain
Let’s just not lose ourselves
Stay, stay ... in touch every day
You and me
We are so much alike
You’re like a part of me
You are my comfort
You are my joy, my compassion
I feel at home with you
Sharing hopes, sharing dreams
Sharing time with you
Enjoy so much the way you are
Stay, stay ... just stay who you are
Breathe
Catch your breath and breathe
Catch your breath and breathe
Catch your breath and breathe
That’s all you need
Catch your breath and breathe
Catch your breath and breathe
Catch your breath and breathe
Just breathe
Get back, get back your natural breath
Get back, get back your natural breath
A struggle for life and death
A struggle for life and death
A struggle for life and death
Win back your breath (2x)
Survive, survive, staying alive
Survive, survive, recover, staying alive
We want to hold your hand
It’s hard to understand
We want to hold your hand
We know we can’t
The only thing we can do
Is stay home and think of you
The only thing we can do
Is stay home and pray for you
Helpless, helpless, feeling so small
Helpless, helpless, it affects us all
Win back, win back your natural breath
Win back, win back your natural breath
The only thing we can do
Is to stay home for you
The only thing we can do
Stay home for ourselves and for you
The Australian sunrise
Wait, wait and see
Stay with me
Together we’ll be
Wait, wait and see
Stay with me
Together we’ll be
Sunrise
First rays of light
Sunrise
All colours are so bright
No one around
Peace can be found
In the morning sound
It’s tremendous, indescribable,
Magnificent to feel
It’s tremendous, indescribable,
M agnificent to feel
Sunrise
The silence you will hear
Sunrise
A new day appears
Solo
Sunrise
It will brighten up your mind
Sunrise
Yourself you will find
Sunrise
The silence you will hear
Sunrise
A new day appears
Bad weather song
This is a simple yet moving
Bad weather song
About tempests and storms
Just passing by
A song without depth
A song without claims
A song that makes me happy
Just because it rains
Refr:
When it’s drizzling and drips
When it’s pouring and clatters
When the rain pitter-pats on my coat
When a little drop of rain …
falls on my hand
I feel happy to be …
In my home countryland
When I stay in a place
Where the sun is always shining
Where the forecasts for the weather
Never change
Where hordes of people
Flock to by plane
Then I crave to feel
A little bit of rain
Refr.
Rain is nature, rain is life, rain is water
We all need to survive!!
This little drop of rain …
That I hold in my hand
It makes me feel happy …
In my home countryland
When it’s drizzling and drips
When it’s pouring and clatters
When the rain pitter-pats on my coat
When a little spot of rain… falls on my hand
I feel happy to be …
In my home countryland
