knows where you are

by A Family Of Ghosts

supported by

Patrick Rößler Such an emotional song! It's crushing yet so (Schmitt)full of hope. For me it's a goosebump-guarantee and I really have to fight down my tears. Mostly because I can't imagine how I would feel to lose my daughter or my son. Heartwrenching for sure.
That aside: I would sell one kidney if there's a chance to get more from this awesome human beings called A Family Of Ghosts!

lyrics

The silence hit the ground
our hearts stopped beating for some time
our hearts continued with their work
what we did not realize

We took our hands

Like at nightfall - sun disappeared
no sun, scared like a child
we looked around – just winter's frost

We took our hands we were so lost

And we drowned and we felt so afraid and we cried and we threw up and we fainted and we thought this world would not turn anymore

We took our hands and suddenly we knew for sure – for sure – for sure

Hey, we know wherever you are
there's this beautiful smile
not a single scar
because the sun shines through your heart

The sun shines forever through your heart
