Beers n Bears – Closed for holidays

Liebe Kanada-Freunde,

die Urlaubszeit rückt näher und auch wir bei Beers n Bears werden uns eine kleine Auszeit nehmen. Daher möchten wir Sie an dieser Stelle darüber informieren, dass wir in der Zeit vom 28.09.09 bis einschließlich 21.10.09 keine Auslieferungen vornehmen können. Bis zum 26.05. stehen wir Ihnen selbstverständlich gern zur Verfügung. Wir freuen uns schon darauf, Sie nach unseren Ferien mit einigen Neuheiten überraschen zu können.

Wir wünschen allen, die in den kommenden Wochen ebenfalls Ihren Urlaub antreten, eine schöne erholsame und erlebnisreiche Zeit (vielleicht ja sogar im Traumland Kanada?).

Ihre Gabi

 

Green Grass and high Tides

Das ist genau die richtige Musik für ein richtig tolles Wochenende. Am besten am Lagerfeuer.

In a place you only dream of
Where your soul is always free
Silver stages, golden curtains
Filled my head, plain as can be
As a rainbow grew round the sun
All the stars I’ve love who died
Came from somewhere beyond the scene you see
These lovely people played just for me
Now if I let you see this place
Where stories all ring true
Will you let me past your face
To see what’s really you
It’s not for me I ask these questions
As though I were a king
For you have to love, believe and feel
Before the burst of tamborines take you there

(chorus)
Green grass and high tides forever
Castles of stone souls and glory
Lost faces say we adore you
As kings and queens bow and play for you

Those who don’t believe me
Find your souls and set them free
Those who do, believe and love
As time will be your key
Time and time again I’ve thanked them
For a piece of mind
They helped me find myself
Amongst the music and the rhyme
That enchants you there

(repeat chorus)
