It sure sounds funny When you say it out loud How you really don't want me To stay around You've made your choices You're gonna see them through So there's nothing left for me to do But to wish you well I wish you, I wish you well I wish you, I wish you well A thousand nights we Crossed a thousand seas I held you through the hurt And you held on...Learn More

Her tanned legs Move slowly before The blue tiled Swimming pool walls She holds her Daughter by the hand They climb The family slide And go down It’s translucent tube And splash Into the foaming brine I used to be a mermaid My silky salty skin Would light up in the moonlight Before I’d dive into the deep She flips Her hair from her...Learn More

The light is red The rain is soft The pavement shines Above the tram Neon lights Flicker out The garbagemen pick up their cans And trust their worried whispers to the wind She picks them up With gentle hands And sets them free I'd long to follow suit Over the grey slate roofs Up through the darkening clouds Right out of this town And come down...Learn More

It’s that time of the year again Trees turn out in misty green Sun is creeping up my skin again And I hear girls sing I will call you up again And ask: 'how are you?' I will laugh at your jokes again This time I’ll be true This time I won't give up This time I won't run off This time I’ll know just what to say I won't back away, I will keep it...Learn More

Of the thousand times you made me laugh Never thought the last would come so fast Never thought I'd have to say goodbye To the brilliant fire of your eyes But I will meet you at the other side We'll have a little drink and do a little dance and then Keep it up until the morning light When you put on your favorite tune, put on your favorite...Learn More

I'll carry you across Beyond the burning rocks It's written in the stars and the palm of your hand As the merrymakers ride Their ferry through the night You can leave your boots ashore you don't need them anymore All you gotta do is hold on to my hand We can watch the moon ascend over Annekin's bay The ocean's not that wide I can see the other...Learn More

Every story carved into these crumbling walls Starts with I was innocent Blame my mother, blame my father Blame my coldhearted lover But know that I was innocent Didn't want to steal Didn't mean to run Didn't pull the trigger Didn't hide the gun Every cry aimed at that tiny square of sky Rings with you are guilty too You have lied and you have...Learn More

Let the dark be fast Let the dark be quick Let it be my cover Let it be my fix Oh, oh, oh Let the dark be bad Let it be unkind Let it forsake others Let it be just mine Oh, oh, oh Let the dark be dense Let it be complete Let it be remorseless Let it be concrete Oh, oh, oh Let the dark bе bold Let it not convey Let it bе untold Let it chase...Learn More

I met God at the corner shop, she was looking kinda lonely so I gave her a nod She smiled back and we started to talk She said, 'Ain't it strange that there are so many different kinds of tea and could you reach the blue one on the highest shelf for me?' Sure God, whatever you want And then she asked me if I had some time for a coffee And I said,...Learn More

I did not blow up any buildings I did not wage no phoney wars I did not ask for admiration Or drew attention to my words I was humble, I was easy I was quiet, I was kind I looked out for my neighbours In the deadest of the night And you think you can ignore me Or freeze me up in fear But I stand with the many And our whispers will begin To fill up...Learn More

Summer is gone and I waited too long Now it ain’t coming back Winter will come and it’s gales will be strong As they pound on my back My mistakes were made many, few were my gains My lovers I led them astray Laughed at the moonlight and spat at the waves Poked up their soft-bellied daze But summer is gone, should have known all along That it ain’t...Learn More

I breathe in Your skin From the hollow Where your neck begins I leave my Lips to Linger on Your collarbone Raise my hands above your spine Trace my fingers down Along the edge of where we start And weld us into one For I am made of Flesh that folds Around your bones I am made of skin that glows And glistens as it listens To the flow of Your...Learn More
