Andreas Vollenweider - Hands and Clouds (1981)

I never dreamed I could cry so hard That ain't like a man I could fly like a bird some days Had a place where I could land I could have sworn we were all locked in Ain't that what you said I never knew it could hurt so bad When the power of love is dead But giving into the nighttime Ain't no cure for the pain You gotta wade into the water You gotta learn to live again And reach out for her healing hands Reach out for her healing hands There's a light, where the darkness ends Touch me now and let me see again Rock me now in your gentle healing hands I never knew love like poison That burned like a fire All I ever wanted was a reason To drown in your eyes I never knew sleep so restless Empty arms so cold That's not the way it's supposed to be It ain't the spell that I was sold

I'm going nowhere Gotta face up to it Gotta wake up to it I feel so guilty Killing time is a sin There's no way you can win A dam burst of dreams flow thru' me They slow me where I could be Flash point feelings flow Thru' my mind moving When my friends tell me You just can't connect You ain't got no respect They tell me nothing 'Cos I know about that Yes I know about that I'm not gonna take what people say Don't feel that I belong today Sense of freedom and Sense of pride From the mountains to the sea I'll run across this land Looking out for strength and beauty A diamond in the sand And I will chase the four winds over Trying to understand And I won't stop until I'm holding Heaven in my hands I won't let nobody Turn me off of the track Now there's no turning back Won't let no worries Turn my head inside out Now there's no room for doubt I'm heading for my destiny And it feels electric to me Flash point feelings flow Thru' my mind I was lonely going nowhere Drowning on dry land I was almost stranded there a Shipwreck on the sand But now I'll chase the whole world over Making my demands And I won't stop until I'm holding Heaven in my hands From the mountains to the sea I'll run across this land Looking out for strength and beauty A Diamond in the sand And I will chase the four winds over Trying to understand And I won't stop until I'm holding Heaven in my hands I was lonely going nowhere Drowning on dry land I was almost stranded there a Shipwreck on the sand But now I'll chase the whole world over Making my demands And I won't stop until I'm holding Heaven in my hands (Repeat)
