Erika Kertesz & David Reschofsky – Young Soul, Old Soul
(2015)
Lyrics: Kertész Erika
Catch the time
End of a line
Weather the storm
Meditation Tree
Seagull’s view
The fool's weapon
Young soul, old soul
Catch the time
Zene: Kertész Erika
Catch the time before it flies away
Nothing is here to stay
Except change
Is gonna be the same
Long ago a wise guy said
You could not step twice into the same river
And he was right
You just can’t do that, can you?
The wave that touched your feet
Is long disappeared
You’re still thinking about it
Why don’t you let it go?
Forget the past
Move on, just relax
Ignore the pain
That is killing your heart
Just throw the dice
And open up your eyes
You’re gonna realize
It’s not so hard
Just sing it
Parappappapparara…
To find the listener to your prayer
All you got to do is say the right words
Stay awake
Keep waiting for the answer
And if you’re falling down
Take a good look around
That’s something to remember
Forget the past
Move on, just relax
Ignore the pain
That is killing your heart
Just throw the dice
And open up your eyes
You’re gonna realize
It’s not so hard
Just sing it
Parappappapparara…
End of a line
Zene: Reschofsky Dávid
The years of a line disappeared
They’re floating away in the wind
Wherever they might fly
I won’t be there
Whenever they might try to
Reach me with a prayer
They might beg me to stay
They’ll wanna pull me away
They’ll find me ways to remember
Lush intoxication
Soaring through my veins
The leaves of the fall passing by
Are singing a phony lullaby
They sound a little tired
Childish to a man
So loud they try to call me
To bring them home again
I’m looking down at the ground
Feeling empty but proud
With all the twisted emotions
I’m ready to surrender
Waiting silently
The years of a line disappeared
They’re floating away in the wind
Wherever they might fly
I won’t be there
Whenever they might try to
Reach me with a prayer
They’ll might beg me to stay
They wanna pull me away
They’ll find me ways to remember
Lush intoxication
Now I’m still and free
Weather the storm
Zene: Kertész Erika
Beautiful, curious morning
No more days to go
Finally leaving for the shore of love
Through the sea
For the right place to be
The boat is small, cold wind is blowing
With a scente of fall
They are still glowing with the warmth of heart
With a light
That will help them sleep at night
The sky is turning wild and dark
Icy rain, and hurricane and
Seven seas of fearful thoughts
Make the journey long with no end
At times they feel so lost and lonely
Dreaming about the one and only
Days go by slowly, surrounded
By the motionless time
He’s drawing circles into the golden sand
Like a child
Waiting still
Teary eyed
Thy sky is turning wild and dark
Icy rain and hurricane and
Seven seas of fearful thoughts
Make the waiting long with no end
At times he feels so lost and lonely
“Are they out there calling for me?”
“Are you waiting? We are coming!”
“I am waiting! And you coming?”
The sky is turning bright and clear
No more rain and hurricane and
Seven seas of endless fear
And all the tears and doubts are fading
Little hands start waving fondly
Every heart starts breathing
They are all together again
With a promise: no more leaving!
It’s beautiful…
Meditation Tree
Zene: Kertész Erika
You were standing there
Just how I remembered
Gazing at the silent sky
Close to You kingfishers fly
Be the sun for me
When I open the window
Be the candlelight at night
Watch over me when I sleep tight
Take me to a peaceful, silent place I’m meant to be
Show me how to use my wings and then just set me free
No matter how, we’ll be together
When I close my eyes I think of You with sweet surrender
Sensing the breeze You blow along the way I wander
All the things I see
Coming clear for me
Meditation Tree
And You’re standing there
I’ll always remember
Gazing at the silent sky
Close to You kingfishers fly
You’re the sun for me
When I open the window
You’re the candlelight at night
Taking care of me when I sleep tight
Take me to a peaceful, silent place I’m meant to be
Show me how to use my wings and then just set me free
No matter how, we’ll be together
When I close my eyes I think of You with sweet surrender
Sensing the breeze You blow along the way I wander
All the things I see
Coming clear for me
Meditation Tree
Seagull’s view
Zene: Reschofsky Dávid
Day and night and beyond time and space
His wings never stop
Oh what a wonderful creature swinging with the wind
Flying a life that’s lonelier than it seemed
Beautiful prisoner, sailing captured by the sky
He cannot even recall what made him cry
He’s alone
In his perfect world
He’s a restless bird
Day and night and beyond time and space
His wings never stop
He lapses into the silence of reminiscence
Travelling through the years of the past with a glance
Living his dreams in a hurry, there’s no time to breath
He doesn’t dare to descend, drop away from the speed
Gazing into the distance, just like he was blind
He sees what comes and what he just left behind
On and on
High above the clouds
No risks, no doubts
Day and night and beyond time and space
His wings never stop
He wants to stay up forever but how long will he last?
And when he falls down, he’s gonna be falling fast
If he survives it at all, he might take a rest
But who’s gonna be there to help him build a nest?
The fool's weapon
Zene: Kertész Erika
The fool’s weapons don’t threaten me
When I’m singing like a bird
Up above on a tree
Here I go again, can you hear?
I will save you from the fool’s weapon
With a wave of my wings
Songs happen, I let ’em laugh
Fly wherever they wanna sail
Maybe dance on a cloud
If they wanna cry, that’s okay
They can save me from the fool’s weapon
Anyway, with their dreams
Bye
Why don’t you say farewell to the cruel eyes?
Rain, ice, cold lies
Love is all around, rolling up and down
Enjoy the beautiful sights, choose nice views
Play hide and seek
Knock and ask trick or treat
I’m like a cool summer breeze
Giving shelter from the
Sun’s cheeky, hot, burning beams
Like a feather gone with the wind
I will sing away the fool’s weapon
In a wink, can you feel it?
I’m humming a sweet lullaby
To a newborn little one
To a young mother’s child
His giggle shows me the way
I will save him from the fool’s weapon
With a game and my singing
Young soul, old soul
Zene: Reschofsky Dávid és Kertész Erika
Young soul, old soul
We don’t fit together, they say
We seem different but we’re still the same
Young soul, old soul
Sitting on the same train
We’re two pictures sharing one frame
You’re the spark I’m the flame
You’re the world full of mysteries and I have the key
And you’re right there when I count to three
We are not two birds of a feather
It doesn’t (really) matter, we stick together
Until the stars rise
We are not each other’s reflection
But we are heading the same direction
We fight but laugh more
We’re the peace after war
Without one another we’d be incomplete
