The Creek (Philipp Kappeli, 2016)
Every day the creek is flowing (flowing)
All day long and all the night (the night)
it's the way the time is rolling (rolling)
and I know, it’s alright (is it alright?)
The kingfisher flies into the scene
I can see a blue line in the green
then he sits on a branch to watch
– for some small fish to catch

Mother Earth (Philipp Kappeli, 2016)
R Oh mother earth you are the wise one (wise one, wise one)
the mother of all the children gone and yet to come (wise one, wise one)
1 there is shadow and there is light
some people love a life in peace and others want to fight
2 Our hearts are longing for love and harmony
so it’s written deep in every human destiny
3 One day our hearts will beat together
And we can dance and make the world much better

I can see a miracle growing, oh what a beauty

oh mother earth you are the wise one

Longing For (Philipp Kappeli, 2016)
I am longing for wisdom, that is true I tell
I am longing for freedom, that is true as well.
But it’s a long way for all the people here on earth
And it’s a hard way, working each and every day
Even if you try and want your best sometimes you fail
Don’t forget, where’s a will there’ll be a way
I am longing for respect, that is true I tell
and I am longing for friendship, that is true as well
But it’s a long way for all the people here on earth
And it’s a hard way, working each and every day
Even if you try and want your best sometimes you fail
Don’t forget, where’s a will there’ll be way
But it’s a long way for all the people here on earth
And it’s a hard way, working each and every day
Even if I try and want my best sometimes I fail
Don’t forget, where’s a will there’ll be a way
I am longing for justice, that is true I tell
and I am longing for unity, that is true as well
But most of all, I am longing for love, only time will tell
But it’s a long way for all the people here on earth
And it’s a hard way, working each and every day
Even if we try and want our best sometimes we fail
Don’t forget, where’s a will there’ll be a way

Best Way (Philipp Kappeli, 2016)
R I wanna know, I wanna know right now
Which is the best way of life oh yeah 2x
1 An old Cherokee warrior and his granddaughter sit by the fire
he wants to tell her, he wants to tell her
about his life experience and said
you know, in life there are two wolves
fighting against each other.
The first wolf is, the first one is
hate, distrust, fear and struggle,
The second wolf, the second wolf is
Love, confidence, hope and peace.
R I wanna know, I wanna know right now
Which is the best way of life oh yeah (come say) 2x
2 After a while, after a while the girl stares into the light
and which wolf is, and which wolf is
finally winning the fight?
The one you feed, the one you feed is
the answer of the old Cherokee
the one you feed, the one you feed
the one you feed is free.
R I wanna know, I wanna know right now
Which is the best way of life oh yeah (come say)
I wanna know, I wanna know which wolf is free
I wanna know, I wanna know which one is free
Dub Break
R I wanna know, I wanna know right now
Which is the best way of life oh yeah
3 Some say do this, some say do that
believe it or not give’em a musical shot (oh)
Hide and seek, turn up and down
right or left, one step ahead and two steps back (yeah)
R I wanna know, I wanna know right now
Which is the best way of life oh yeah (come say) 3x
I wanna know, I want to know
I wanna know, I want to know
The one you feed, the one you feed, the one you feed is free
The one you feed, the wolf you feed, the one you feed is free
The one you feed, the one you feed, the wolf you feed is free!

Another Year (Philipp Kappeli, 2016)
1 You and me
we are here sitting at a table
and drinking red wine
it’s new year’s eve’
and I feel blue and I feel fine
R This is the time
another year passing by
and this is my song
for a new year to come
for a new year to come
2 Still sitting here
what am I waiting for?
Anyway, no one can stop the time
still drinking wine and let it flow,
so where will I go?
