This ballad is one of our most popular songs so far. We started writing it on January 29th, 2004, inspired by the heavy snow outside.

Sunrise,
released July 9, 2004
Falling stars from the sky make the world a snow-white wonderland
Kiss the flowers goodnight to sleep well until the sun wakes them up again
Silence falls without a sound smoothening rough edges
Covering the dirty streets with white
As if to hide
All the cruelty and sadness
All the anger and the pain
All the world now seems so peaceful again
Falling stars from the sky make the world a snow-white wonderland
Kiss the flowers goodnight to sleep well until the sun wakes them up again
Cold winds shake the barren trees sweeping through the valley
Dancing snowflakes hover in the air
As if to share
All the loneliness and sorrow
All the distance and the fear
Just before the light of day disappears
Falling stars from the sky make the world a snow-white wonderland
Kiss the flowers goodnight to sleep well until the sun wakes them up again
Such a mystic melancholy takes me as I watch
This soft and silent beauty so harsh at the same time.
When winter reigns with her icy hand
frost sings its sullen melody
But deep down below the frozen coat
Life's seeds await their time
Falling stars from the sky make the world a snow-white wonderland
Kiss the flowers goodnight to sleep well until the sun wakes them up again
Dancing earthwards with the wind
It's their first and last dance
Never wondering if to melt or stay
As if to say
All in life that really matters
Is how much you had to give
How much you loved and if you really lived
Falling stars from the sky make the world a snow-white wonderland
Kiss the flowers goodnight to sleep well until the sun wakes them up again
