Before I can close my eyes,
I think of what tomorrow does
another mystery, yet another pause.
Or what if tomorrow never comes?
As I’m ready to fall asleep
worries are gathered around my brain
having a feast of their own,
my desire for a new start slowly fades.
My eyes are now tightly shut
I have said good-bye to my finished day
soon I will have a dream,
from everything that has ever happened,
brightly in a gleam.

Sitting on a piece of wood,
staring out in the fog,
I’m going through my childhood.
When I was a little girl,
growing up in the city of Tehran,
I didn’t know what life was.
As I grew older and saw the faces,
I realized it was just a fuzz.
Faces told me different things
emotions mixed with thoughts
Had no clue what life brings.
Crossing the Atlantic,
I moved to a different life
Faces changed along with dreams
I no longer knew who I was.
Time was flying fast,
memories were no longer near
the world was turning in full blast.

O, Christmas has come
O, how it is precious fun
O, new year has finally come
I want to see the world
I want to be new
O, Christmas has come
O, Christmas has come

I wish I could fly
Through mountains and the sky
I wish so much to be away
From this planet for once
Just once,to see somewhere other than here
If only I could fly,if only I could fly
Maybe it would be a pleasure
For me to find a treasure
Something unbelievable,something unforgettable
A memory of a different place
A memory of a journey through space

I am silent,I am still
I hear sounds and see the trees
I am silent,I am still
The pencil is moving across this field
I am silent,I am still
There is not a single speaken word
There is no movement,nor a sound
Only the pencil moving across this field

I am me,just me and not you
I am me,myself and not you
I am me,can’t change,it’s just me
I am me,my whole body,my whole soul
I am me,who takes a space of this world
I am me,who walks among millions of others
I am me,who is one and only one,not many,not you
I am me,who thinks like me,who talks and laughs,not like you
I am me,with just one soul,with just one brain
I am me,not you,just ME

If I forget the past
And stay with the present
Maybe the longer it can last
If I forget the present
And live with the past
Then it might not be as pleasant
Though if I live the future
And live with my hopes
I might not see the new feature
So I might as well stay right here
And live my life the way it is now
And perhaps look for future with more desire.

I wish to escape,to fly away
To be else where,somewhere far away
I wish to be alone,somewhere,in the distance
To be away from the tears of sky
From the roar of thunder
I wish to be anywhere,but here
To be someone I never was
To be someone whom no one was
I wish to be a bird,so I can fly up high
To be in sky,and to be above
I wish to go faraway,where no one cares
Where no one looks,or no one stares
Where there is peace and there is hope
To be free from everything,just everything
I wish to be way up high,where no one sees
All i’ll hear would be the laughter of sun
I wish to find myself
And who I really am
To be away,far far away

I don’t want to be afraid
Of the darkness or the night
I don’t want to be afraid
Of the morning and its light
I don’t want to be afraid
Of the silent moon,up there so bright
I don’t want to be afraid
Of today or tomorrow’s games
I don’t want to be afraid
Of mysterys coming by everynight
I don’t want to be afraid
Of anything or of night

Dreams and dreams,where you want to be forever
It can last long but not forever
You cannot escape,you cannot leave
It’s where you want to be or where you don’t want to be
It’s strange,it’s different,it’s weird and it’s reverent
It’s a whole new place,it’s a whole different space
It is endless in your thoughts,it is marvelous in your heart
It is like a web with no spider,like a bottle with no cider
It can have meaning or it can be strange
It is your thought at that very moment
