Two Colors Blue (Secrets Of Light) (words and music by Claudia Vorbach, Tuebingen, Germany. All rights reserved.Copyright by Claudia Vorbach) Two colors blue with liquid stone light falls through and lingers on. On waves who are moved by this old fire life. Images. Whispering 'bout secrets of light. Footprints and stories weave landscapes of time. Life hold so many treasures, it is such a joy to find! Two colors blue back in fifty-two a waves has swashed all its twinkels to you. You followed that call.These secrets of light. Right through your hands, seeing sweet mystery life. Motions and colors transform dark things with light. And love flowing freely, it helps all the ways to find. No sheets of paper were wide enough, for you to bear a witness! No brushstroke was delicate enough, to tell of tender lifelines! No colorplay vivid and as deep, as oceanic deeply. Only the magic melting glass underneath your hands. Two colors blue with liquid stone light falls in and lingers on. May the light shine, let the light shine, may the light shine for you. May the light shine, let the light shine around you, two colors blue.

SAD NEWS (corona blues) Sad news, sad news over from Italy. Hundreds of deaths, every day, coffins in the streets. No funeral, no last cortege to say Bye-Bye. I've been twice in this beautiful place, poor Bergamo cries. Sad news, sad news tumbling in from Spain. Hundreds of deaths, compared to what? - Numbering is a sad game. The health-workers have no masks and their pay is so low. They risk their life while nursing patients that have to lay on the floor. Sad news, sad news from New York City! Disease grows fast in this beehive. It knows no pity. Forced to stand still is the city who knows not how to sleep. Flatten the curve, stay at home, we have to beat this brand new disease. Sad news, sad news not only from Italy. Hundreds of deaths, every day. Big cities and empty streets. Everybody is so scared to lose someone they love. Old shadow-brother Death - it's still you we're afraid of. Sad News all around the globe. Live- music and theaters and restaurants, all closed. Now woirk, no pay but the rent is high. Who will get supported? How will we get by? It's a twenty-first-century weird-old-world. The shutdown was made while the high flying bird greets every-day spring, enjoys airplane less skies. All around the globe have an observant eye. Yes we have high properties to retain, protect lives and make sure our rights maintain. Listen to those giant-public-traded companies. They are whining out loud: subvention-money ,please! But nothing came from them for the common good. 'Cause in avoiding taxes they're traditionally good. But who keeps the daily- life running' for us all ? The low-paid-sector! Applause in the government halls. (This is sad.) Sad news, sad news, where have our taxes gone? Industrial nations you saved banks, money goes to the wrong. Economized our hospitals to death. Lobby wanted more. Now you can't save your citizens and have to tell them "Don't go out the door!" I stay at home with my guitar. Sad news, sad news, look at the scientists blue. They always filed down their report 'bout global warming from planet blue. But governments never listened to warning words like this, especially on Fridays. It seems ignorance serves most politicians for bliss. Keep your freedom up high in this digital age. They say human-skills soon will be replaced. Robots pay no taxes, join a secret hobby: collecting data- for your own good only! Let the machine think for you, get in your self-driving car, dumb and dumber- here we are. Yes we might not be invulnerable. But like our ancestors willing and able. They stood a lot of crisis through. They were made of flesh and blood, brain and a heart like you. A freedom's-venture-mind, love and mortality and nature's spirit make this life unique and free. Sad news, something we're all going through, don't let them knock you out, don't let it get the best of you! No work, no pay, oh but the rent is high. Who will get supported? How will we get by?
