IF I WAS YOU
I’ll be you tonight
I’ll say hi to you
Bye to you
I’ll feel you inside
I’ll be you deep blue
Like the sea, nursing me
And you’ll be wind thats right
Becoming air pure life
My lungs with love, your wife
I’ll reach the stars tonight
I’ll ask them where you are
They say ‘just use your sight’
Just don’t see you, you are so far…
They say ‘try with your heart
Yes I know I should be smart
I feel so weak though, and it so hard!
Tomorrow the sun will rise
Last dreams will make me wise
And I’ll stay quiet looking at your eyes
While you are smiling up the brighter skies

COME NEAR DARLING
Come near darling
And just kiss, kiss my hope
Give me magic and power
Beauty and golden flour
To fulfill my such willing soul
Outside I feel the breeze
I’d just like it to be you
So you’d hug me til I sneeze
In the sky I see the sun
I’d just like it to be you
So you’d show me the nay to move further on
I’d move much further
I’d go far away far away
At night I look at those shiny stars
Oh dear I’d like them to be you
So we’d make love
And erase our heavy scars
We’d make love
We’d make love
We’d make love all night long
In the horizon I see my future
God I’d like to be you
So you’d join in being part of my nature
You’d be me
And I’d be you
You I’d be me
And I’d would be you
We’d be together
Together, forever
So come near darling then
And just kiss my hope
Just give me magic and power
Beauty and golden power
To fulfill my such willing soul
My souch willing soul, my….

SNOW
Snow falling on my hair
I was there I swear
Holding my fear to see
What would come up
To break my lock
Now the night, showing so unfair
And I swear It’s there
Holding my tears to see
What has come up
That made me stop
And I’m cryng loud for rain
To come here and wash my pain
And just please take it far
On the first train
Now uncapable to share
I was there I swear
Holding friends near to see
How love green up
This, this cheered me up
Now the light trying to be clear
And I swear it’s there
Holding dreams near to see
How I reach the top, how I reach the top
Now I’m screaming loud for rain
To come here and wash my pain
And just please take it far, take it far away
All this pain for me
And this grief so deep in me
Baby claire, what happened there
You’re no longer there for me
Darling Ryan what can I do
To stop myself from crying
Oh baby, Ryan...

DREAMLAND
Jilk in your hair
And those kisses in your eyes
Just like butterflies, how nice
Oh dear, you broke my heart
Milk with your words
And that honey in your soul
Oh darling just said that I wanted to hug you all
So sweet, so sweet
And I’ll go through the rain
Then I’ll cross the pain
Til I reach your plane
And by then I’ll just faint
Birds in your hand
And that magic inside
Standing weird and strange
You, special one
You are still my dreamland
You are still my dreamland
And so I should say that I’ve gone
Through the rain now, shouldn’t
That I’ve crossed the pain
That I reached your plane, eventually
But by then there was nobody around
But you
Standing in the back laughing
Funny at me
Crying funny lies
Don’t worry darling I won’t
Believe any of them
Don’t worry darling
Don’t worry honey
I won’t believe any of that crap of yours
Don’t worry honey
Don’t worry baby
I will only call you coward for it

MY DEAR LOVED GREEN PLACE
Grey in the air
Stay with me
The rain paints you deep
And the wind sees you sleep
My dear loved green place
Right inside you’re well hidden
My dear loved old grace
Can’t believe you’re forbidden
And so please take my me back where we stayed
And so please take me back when we said
That anything was possible
Tried to touch you with my fingers
But I couldn’t reach your high
I cried far too much
Long’s been the winter
Please, I cannot see you die
And so please grey in the air
Please let me be there
For you rains just sounds so sweet
And the wind calms down the heat in me

ROSE
A Rose comes in
Nothing in between
But a Rose, so close
Touch the sun, be one
The moon will be your daughter
And the sky will be your son
The sea will be your mother
And the father, tall and strong
Sing your song along
The music is your first cure
And that’s where you belong
It’ll take yourself to that shore
And you’ll finnish what’s undone
A Rose comes in
Nothing in between
But a Rose

HMAMA / THINGS TO SAY
I’m weak and I wanna call you
Although you don’t love me
Although you don’t care
I’m sad and I should maybe kill you
Although I can’t hate you
Although I’m not there to
What’s wrong with you?
You sit and lay on the couch all day
Let me tell you that if you don’t try
Life’s not gonna try for you
And if I’m the perfect one, just as you said
Who are you gonna love now, tell me?
Who?
I’m sick of you, so I’m coming to tell you
That you shouldn’t have told me
Those nice things you said
And you know,
I’m glad I don’t have to deal with you anymore
But let me help you
Just so you smile again, smile again, Jamil
What’s wrong with you?
You sit and lay on the couch all day
Let me tell you that if you don’t try,
Life’s not gonna try for you
And if I’m the perfect one, just as you said
Who are you gonna love now, tell me?
Who? who’s next?

Blured picture of you

BLURED PICTURE OF YOU
Dry my tears
Uncapable to cry
By far too tired to even try
By now I just have and old blurred picture of you
And nothing…
See my fear
When I cry for you
Uncapable, too shy
Don’t know what it was about you
The way that we smiled the way that we
The way that we might
But now look at me
Nothing like it was supposed to be
That magic rests there
Now, see if I care
And I do care about you darling, Ryan
And so come on over and hug me tigh
When I might need you
Uncapable to show you
By far too tired and too weak to even know
How to act with you
By now I just have an old blurred picture of you
And nothing and nothing
And nothing seems to be true anymore and it’s so sore
And I keep remembering the songs we sang
These were the songs we used to love
The way that we smiled, the way that we smiled
The way that we might
And so dry my tears when I think of you
And so dry my tears when I think of you
Just dry my tears when I think of you
Dry my tears when I cry for you

ANGEL FACED
Angel faced
Your heart’s on fire
Let it go, let it flow
Show me your grace
Your eyes are desire
Let me know
What’s inside, what it’s like
And I’ll watch you
Standing still, so still
That your beauty is
Just supreme, It’s just supreme
I know you are to part
But it’s alright
Just go on easy, juts go on happy
And I’ll be happy all the same for you
But when I need you
Please stand still
And feel me inside with you
And fill my inside with you
And I’ll be watching you
Standing still, so still
That your beauty…
Oh Angel faced! Oh Angel faced!

Meet you at the airport

MEET YOU AT THE AIRPORT
I’ve seen you today at the airport
Standing still
With your hair soft and wavy
An instant has been more than enough
For me to recognise you
Once again
Just like back then
I love you and I know you
I always shave
Even before we met for the first time in Scottia bar
I know you, I know you
I know you well
So I hope you see me one day at the airport
Standing still
With my hair black and navy
Waving at you
An instant should be more than enough
For you to recognise me
Once again
Just like back then
I love you and I know you
I know the shine in your eyes
And I know the tone of your skin
I know the shape of your hands
And I know the sound of your laughter
And the sound of your voice
So I sing for you
Since you kissed my soul with yours
You’ll understand one day, darling
So when you do, so when you do
Please come and meet me at the airport
I’ll be waiting right there for you my love
And I’ll be waiting, waiting, waiting
For you my sweet, sweet darling
And I’ll be right there, right there..just for you
