Nice Dream
05:01

Rise in this cloud
Rise
rise high above the grey
Witness the dawn and the new day
And the hummingbirds will sing
forever in your dreams
Dolphins enter the scene
they fly with their fins
is this the sky of a lost planet
should we put on a helmet
oh I don’t think we’ll ever fall
but I’m afraid of it all
It's such a nice dream
Don’t fear a thing
It's such a nice dream
Don’t you think?
The falling leaves are silent
unlike the talking trees
and the frail whisper of the fruit
in the apple seed
Can you hear
Or are you still asleep?
The day starts to fade
But I think we’ll stay
Show me a place like this
Or we’ll never never go away
For now: Go on strings
Play
You feel the breeze brush against your face
fleeing the Ocean blue
The ladybug’s quest is all grace
soaring through the summer afternoon
Soon the stars hang from the sky
Chase away the red clouds
and the night will be ours
follow me follow me now
I stumbled by a tear in the veil
carved by a fleeting moonbeam
the colors are pouring out
the thread that weaves our dreams
It's such a nice dream
Don’t fear a thing
It's such a nice dream
Don’t you think?

Night in June
03:59

So many moons
Have passed us by
Beneath this June’s
Warm Summer sky
Nightly Ocean swims
Under bright galaxies
Thousand young whims
Linger in me
Tonight our love transpires
In this dark ocean shore
A theater for our desires
A loving war
The Earth twirls and warps
Our live ascends and drops
Yet for one night we lay
Fool and young this way
When we’re aged and grey
Remind me love
Of this night in June
Below the yellow moon

The Sailor

Smith was a sailor, from the day he was born
over a dark raging sea, his skin bare at the storm
slipped the unsober hands, of his peg-legged mother
nearly spend his first night, at Davy Jones Locker
He was not yet fourteen, when his hands took the wheel
steering that double helm, was the best he could feel
salt ran through his veins, taste of rum in his smile
Oh! the puf of the sails, Oh! the ocean so wide
We´ve seen the hollow void and the edge of the sky
The wicked winds of fate let them try try try try
What lurks down below, truly no man can know
the wicked winds of fate let them blow blow blow blow
The song of the siren, calling like treasure
For what lies underwater, there´s no level or measure
From the nest of the crow, so blue is his throne
Let the old gods come forth, and make themselves known
Let us face lighting, and thunder with grin
Hear the crack of the mast, feel the rain in our skin
Let us gamble our lives, in the deep ocean’s dice
Let Death save our souls, if that be the price
Oh I swear upon the waves here my heart shall lie
The wicked winds of fate let them try try try try
What lurks down below, truly no man can know
The wicked winds of fate let them blow blow blow blow
To hear the ropes moaning, under night’s stellar sky
The dance of the deck, as the waves pass us by
The squeak of the mice, the creak of the hull
to be one with the ship, to be the hands of its soul
I spoke of laying anchor, and saw his face frown
He has not once set foot, on safe solid ground
So I take another sip, and I hold my peace
You see alas on sea, every day is a feast

The Stars Still Shine
06:47

Autumn sings of tangerines
lulls me to an old dream
enriched by the noon’s light
her eyes rend under my skin
My chest caved in the quake
All through the quiet fallout of fate
Our notebook’s empty spaces
slowly filled with whirling traces
Lost to the war led
By the curls in her head
Breath again into existence
by her bracelets and pendants
Stone after stone
how our castle stood tall
Too close loomed the edge
And the long fall
Like thieves came the night
Days on end without a light
I died there was nothing there
A cold dock, the boatman's fare
Torn where it bleeds the most
Half a shadow half a ghost
This shell the mirror sees
Is it really me?
Like thieves came the night
Days on end without a light
Do the stars still shine above
upholding my right to be loved
Has the devil lost his book
I’m good for every drink i took
I hold your hand, storm your dream
Feel my love, come to me
Across this barren land
a single flower steals the scene
We brought something back
Beyond all earthly things
And how quickly the sand falls
Down through the hourglass
The shores, such beautiful lies
Too soon the river is passed
stumbled out of this fever dream
On a raft battered by the storm
She showed me we never grow old
She showed me love will keep us warm
And I wrote songs
about her bright quintessence
with all the notes I hear
when listening in her...
