Reborn

(álbum: Magnum II - 1979)

Why am I here in this lonely dark room?
Did I do something or acted too soon?
The dogs they howl, the prisoners do cry
A king he is born but a poor man he will die

I believe if you look through your window
Try reaching out to the rainbow
You will find it was stolen by shadows

Time will tell if I did speak out of turn
Then I'll know it was a lesson well learned
I hear no sound, though I see before my eyes
A faceless wave in a desert I despise

I believe if you look through your window
Try reaching out to the rainbow
You will find it was stolen by shadows

But I know it's only for the moment
And the moment goes so fast
And the seconds of the future
Are the seconds of the past
'Cause it all goes in circles
And ends where it started
And the journey is familiar
Though you think it's uncharted

You could easily have been this way
A hundred times before

As another day passed, I secretly hide
All the funny feelings from deep down inside
Still I can but wonder how everyone knows
How they can believe in the thorn but no rose
Somebody ought to show them how to see
Somebody ought to tell them how to be free

I am a wheel that keeps turning
Cast out on a journey unending
This serves me well
Because I know I'm a seeker of fortune
None can explain or can foretell

Starlight on an ocean unbroken
Soft winds will refuse to be woken
All remains the same
And just like a silvery fountain
Comes from nowhere and back again
