26. Above the clouds 
Songtext in 

Wind north-east, runway zero three,
I can hear the engines all the way here.
Like an arrow she passes by
and it's ringing in my ears.
And the wet asphalt shakes,
the rain dusts like a veil,
until it takes off and floats
towards the sun.

Above the clouds
freedom must be limitless.
All fears, all worries, they say,
remained hidden underneath and then
would make us great and
seems important,
suddenly insignificant and small.

I'll look after her for a long time,
see them climb the clouds,
until the lights gradually
completely blurred in the rainy grey.
My eyes already have
lost that tiny point,
only sounds monotonous from a distance
the hum of the engines.

Above the clouds
freedom must be limitless.
All fears, all worries, they say,
remained hidden underneath and then
would make us great and
seems important,
suddenly insignificant and small.

Then everything is quiet, I go,
rain penetrates my jacket.
Someone is making coffee
in the air traffic control barracks.
Gasoline floats in the puddles,
shimmering like a rainbow,
clouds are reflected in it,
I would have liked to have flown along.

Above the clouds
freedom must be limitless.
All fears, all worries, they say,
remained hidden underneath and then
would make us great and
seems important,
suddenly insignificant and small.

Above the clouds
freedom must be limitless.
All fears, all worries, they say,
remained hidden underneath and then
would make us great and
seems important,
suddenly insignificant and small.
