How about a thread for poetry what do you remember

I took the message that she didn't stop to 'put on a harmony' that she wasn't going to give it away herself.

I carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

i recently remembered a very influential band of my young adult years - Blumfeld.

Here's a site that has all the song lyrics from their first album.
"Ghettowelt" was certainly their breakthrough musically, but lyrically, you might want to start with "Ich-Maschine".
foregt it, the whole album rocks (and their subsequent albums rocked much less).
