The sun is going down on me
As the surrenders to the sea
So steal the night and fly on me
I’m calling, I’m calling…

C’?tait autrefois et ailleurs
Une ?ternit? dans nos coeurs
A pr?sent trop loin de toi, je t’appelle
Ecoute-moi

{Refrain:}
Au nom de l’amour
Je t’appelle au secours
Pour que tu reviennes
Juste un seul jour, juste un seul jour

A jamais, pour toujours…

Through distant lands and mountain streams
My river’s running through your dreams
There’s an ocean in between
Forever and ever

M?me si la nature s’y oppose
Je changerai le cours des choses
Pour te parler un seul instant,
Comme avant
Ecoute-moi

{au Refrain}

Au nom de l’amour
Je t’appelle au secours
Qu’importe o? que tu sois
Entends ma voix, entends ma voix

Et malgr? le silence
Je respire ta pr?sence
L’amour infini
Ne conna?t pas l’oubli

Au nom de l’amour
Je t’appelle au secours
Pour que tu reviennes

{au Refrain}

Au nom de l’amour
Je t’appelle au secours
Qu’importe o? que tu sois
Entends ma voix, entends ma voix

Et malgr? le silence
Je respire ta pr?sence

L’amour est toujours le plus fort
J’t'aime encore
Je t’aime encore (encore, encore…)

Have you ever thought what is music? The book Solving a Scientific Mystery by Philip Dorrell will explains a new scientific theory about music: the super-stimulus theory.

The main idea of the theory is that music is a super-stimulus for the perception of musicality, where “musicality” is actually a perceived property of speech. “Musicality” refers to the property of music that determines how “good” it is, how strong an emotional effect it has, and how much we enjoy listening to it.

(beautiful watercolor by Alexander Klevan)

The theory implies that ordinary speech also has this property, in a manner which may vary as a person speaks. The musicality of speech is much more subtle than that of music, but it provides important information which the listener’s brain processes (without conscious awareness of the processing), in order to derive some information about the internal mental state of the speaker. This information is applied to modulate the listener’s emotional response to speech, and this accounts for the emotional effect of music.

Die Tränen greiser Kinderschar
ich zieh sie auf ein weißes Haar
werf in die Luft die nasse Kette
und wünsch mir, dass ich eine Mutter hätte

Keine Sonne die mir scheint
keine Brust hat Milch geweint
in meiner Kehle steckt ein Schlauch
Hab keinen Nabel auf dem Bauch

Mutter

You can easely find lyrics of Mutter in German but there is no fact you can understand it:-) So, here is the text in English by Jeremy Williams.
The tears of a crowd of very old children
I string them on a white hair
I throw the wet chain into the air
and wish that I had a mother

No sun shines for me
there was no breast that cried milk
there is a tube that sticks in my throat
I have no navel on my stomach

Mother

I was not allowed to lick any nipples
and there was no fold to hide in
no one gave me a name
fathered in haste and without sperm

For the mother who never gave birth to me
I have sworn tonight
I will send her a sickness
and afterwards make her sink in the river

Mother

An eel lives in her lungs
on my forehead, a birthmark
remove it with the kiss of a knife
even if it causes me to die

Mother

An eel lives in her lungs
on my forehead, a birthmark
remove it with the kiss of a knife
even if it causes me to bleed to death

Mother
Oh give me strength

I do breathe and that means I’m in love.
I’m in love and that means I’m exist.

When, after all, the great deluge was over,
The seas came back within their coastal lines,
Out of the foam of the receding water
The love came out softly to the land.
And, for some time, it faded in the air,
And lasted for an eon and some then.

And some eccentrics that still do exist
Inhale with their full lungs that crazy mix,
Expecting neither scolding nor reward,
And thinking they are free to breath it in
They realize one day that they fit in
Somebody else’s intermittent breathing.

But remember: a feeling’s like a boat
It’s afloat until you realize:
That the words “I love” mean simply that
“I can breathe” and “I am still alive”.

There will be plenty of despair and roaming.
The land of love is the most noble land.
The knights of love will have to go through testing
With ever higher standards and demands.
They will be separated by a distance,
Devoid of leisure, sleep without rest.

But nothing in the world can turn them back.
Those madmen do agree to pay it back,
Pay any price, their lives won’t be excepted
In order to preserve and to protect
Some indiscernible and magic thread
Which love between them now has extended.

Wind and snow swept them off their feet,
Made them drunk and raised them from the dead.
‘Cause remember you have neither lived,
Nor have breathed, if you have never loved.

And most of them have choked with love forever.
They can’t be reached no matter what you do.
They are accounted by idle talk and rumor,
And that account is laced with pure blood.
But we will light up candles in the memory
Of those who died from the unprecedented love.

Their souls, among the flowers, will run
And their voices will blend and sound as one.
They will inhale eternity together.
And somewhere, on a fragile river cross,
A narrow bridge across the universe
Holding their breath, they will meet each other.

I will open fields to those who love!
Let them sing awake and in their rest.
I do breathe and that means I’m in love.
I’m in love and that means I exist.

Shirley Bassey If you go Away (ne me Quitte Pas)
If you go away, on this summers day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the night birds’ song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
But if you stay, I’ll make you a day
Like no day has been or will be again
We’ll sail the sun, we’ll ride on the rain
We’ll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go, I’ll understand
Leave me just enough love to hold in my hand
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

If you go away, as I know you will
You must tell the world to stop turning till
You return again, if you ever do
For what good is love without loving you
Can I tell you now as you turn to go
I’ll be dying slowly till the next hello
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

But if you stay I’ll make you a night
Like no night has been or will be again
I’ll sail on your smile, I’ll ride on your touch
I’ll talk to your eyes that I love so much
But if you go I won’t cry
Though the good is gone from the word goodbye
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

If you go away as I know you must
There’ll be nothing left in the world to trust
Just an empty room full of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I’d have been the shadow of your dog
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
