lyrics

Vicious Circle (M. + T.: Ben Leinenbach)

Was it the summerwind, that softly touched my hair?

Was it the moon, the stars, something in the air?

A breeze, a sound, a distant melody,

that brought this memory back to me?

Here I am again in the ruins of our love

The stars in the summer sky, they seemed too high above

I turn around, look, search for your face, but all I see

Is cold empty space, what´s wrong with me? You put a spell on me

It´s a vicious circle, the more I try to break out,

the more I fall and get caught in your magic ties

Desire – are you my destiny?

Desire – are you my destiny?

Why can´t I be like a tree, there could be rain or sun,

I´d stand peacefully

With my roots in the ground, my leaves in the air,

never thinking about how my life should be

But with my troubles, dreams, hopes, I´m just a poor human being

I think and therefore I am unfree

It´s a vicious circle, the more I try to break out,

the more I fall and get caught in your magic ties

Desire – are you my destiny?

Desire – are you my destiny?
