The Second Element   Written by Music: Schwarz, Peterson, Meissner  & Lyrics: Peterson, Weiss   This song was also covered by Swedish singer Cecilia Vennersten on her self titled album

Cecilia Vennersten's version

Eyes were glancing Hopes set high But just another day went by Tears are falling Like never before Still she's staring at the door Broken promise Will you understand My heart is in your little hand I hear you call my name And always you'll be Blood and soul part of me My second element I am longing for you And always you'll see That you reflect on me My second element Are you missing me too? Time keeps moving She's in so deep And she cries herself to sleep  Angels dancing In the night And she cuddles up real tight Children's laughter Sunny day Never more I go away Just like and endless dream And always you'll be Blood and soul part of me My second element I am longing for you And always you'll see That you reflect on me My second element Are you missing me too? And always you'll be Blood and soul part of me My second element I am longing for you And always you'll see That you reflect on me My second element Are you missing me too?

 

The Second Element II   written by Music: Peterson, Schwarz, Meissner Lyrics: Peterson, Pirs   Burning fire A light in the dark Shining day and night for me Flowing water The source of our life Covering the world Gentle air blowing Caressing my face Carry me into dreams of love The endless symphony ... Wasn't it you Who was filling my dreams The second element Everywhere you are rife Wasn't it you Who was filling the streams The second element With the power of life Creeks are winding Just seeking their way Hardly tryin' to reach the sea Raindrops falling From skies to the earth Bringing life to you and me Lakes of silence A magical sound Keeping secrets in the ground A perfect harmony ... Wasn't it you Who was breaking the light The second element And the rainbows arise Oh, wasn't it you Who was standing a fight The second element From the earth to the skies Wasn't it you, who was filling my dreams Wasn't it you, who was filling the streams Wasn't it you, who was breaking the light Wasn't it you?

 

Island   written by Music: Peterson Lyrics: Peterson, Andrews   What's life revealing But base reality Take it how you want to Nothing comes for free We go all round believing In perfect harmony Who tells us that's the right way? Just open up and see Like living on an island I'm lost no land in sight Like living on an island I'm drifting without end Somehow believe in this dream of life Like living on an island Never ending questions A trip through darkened space Sometimes getting nearer To question asked with grace But in the end it's all believing In whichever way you will The answer or the mystery Once black is now too white Like living on an island I'm lost no land in sight Like living on an island I'm drifting without end Somehow believe in this dream of life Like living on an island Like living on an island I'm lost no land in sight Like living on an island I'm drifting without end Somehow believe in this dream of life Like living on an island Like living on an island I'm lost no land in sight Like living on an island I'm drifting without end

 

Rain found only on the CD version of this single and on the ever rarer Fly 2 CD, with lyrics written by Nicola Brightman - one of Sarah's younger sisters.   Rain  Music: F Petersen  Lyrics: F Petersen & Nicola Brightman (Sarah's sister)   Give me your dreams and answers I know my reply There's only one chance for living The clouds' in the sky When sunlight burns your eyes I know the children cry In pain Dawn comes up I'm gonna learn your pain And pray for rain.   We need a chance to start again Let it rain I lie awake and feel the pain Let it rain   I can't even think to reason The world has gone bad We're out on the land of Eden We blow what we have   There's only one hold back One way for bad to stay We know Only whether We can hope to get It's heavy rain   We need a chance to start again Let it rain I lie awake and feel the  pain Let it rain   So many try to start again Let it rain And nothing's gonna stop this pain Let it rain Let it rain Let it rain
