ENTITY
Mine is the autumn breeze, upon your skin whispering
Always there but never seen
So cold is the winter chill, it cuts like ice but it’s sparkling
My frozen heart will surely thaw
Mine’s where the sea & sky have no divide
High where the clouds have left & the stars collide
Mine are the colours of the rainbow
They never fade but they come and go
Soft mist, breath of springtime
New signs of life, enlightening
Here today but gone tomorrow
I fall like the summer rain upon your face
That tear stain that you never wipe
I am your dark sky, I’m your sunrise
I am the air around you, that butterfly
I’m always with you, I can’t be free
When I’m asleep, I’m still awake In your dreams

White Kite

|
I bought you coffee, drink my tea
You’re staring out the window searching for your sanity
And it’s a bitter sweet ... one lump or two
You can’t have your cake and eat it
What else can you do when it’s not right?
When it’s not right ..
you can’t have your cake and eat it
When it’s not right
They still dance together , it used to make me smile
Holding hands forever friends
Just like the hands of time
Never slow to answer, his world is upside down
It made you laugh ,, it makes me cry when nobody’s around
But that’s alright ... that’s alright it makes me cry but I’ll be fine
Chorus
The wall still runs with water
The mountain held no shame
It will be there when the world ends & nothing else remains
Words not promises upon your big white kite
The wind stopped blowing long ago
But I see it late at night if I close my eyes
If I close my eyes
I see it late at night if I close my eyes
We’re on the road to nowhere, that old familiar place
Wherever there’s a suitcase there’s a kiss upon your face
A high on every level .. I bet you never thought this through
There’s a down on every floor as well
Sad but it’s the truth
But that alright ... that’s alright
There’s a down on every level
That’s just life
Chorus

Sacred River

|
You promise me forever
But we look into the future
When we’re drowning in our past
So tall
High above they watched
they whispered my secret where the eagle soared
Woven willow circle
Your feathers softly blow
Catch my haunted shadows
I close my eyes , I dream once more
Dream once more ....
Sacred river
I can't promise you forever
But you made your mark upon my heart
I know one day I’ll return
Dip my toes in in your clear water
where the eagle soars
Please free my soul
Woven willow circle
Your feathers softly blow
Catch my haunted shadows
I close my eyes , I dream once more
Dream once more ....

Talk in Colours

|
Let’s talk in colour,
this is all so black and white
Stand beside the waterfall,
where your hair catches the light
I will walk with you if you take my hand
Maybe I will learn
chorus
To dance in the rain
I wanna dance in the rain with you
I’ll get soaking wet for you if you want me to
Over and over again
I’m done with the reasons
I’m afraid of the pain
Oh won’t you take me
to dance in the rain
Let’s dream in colour
Just lay back and close our eyes
I believe we’ll make that rainbow tonight
Beautiful prism full of light
In the morning I will wake you baby
If you promise you will take me
chorus
To dance in the rain
I wanna dance in the rain with you
I’ll get soaking wet for you if you want me to
Over and over again
I’m done with the reasons
I’m afraid of the pain
Oh won’t you take me
to dance in the rain

I... shouldn't close my eyes
You're an open door , locked inside
So how do I, make you understand ?
Why you can never be my man
When you love me like no other
But your still that child inside
Chorus
Your love is the sweetest
Your smile is my weakness
Your love is the deepest
And I want to keep this
Cos your love
Your love , your love is the deepest
My heart shouldn't skip that beat
As you lay your head gently on my chest
Oh , it's a different height
Something in your eyes , leaves me breathless
When you love me like no other
But inside you're like a child
chorus
Your love is the sweetest
Your smile is my weakness
Your love is the deepest
I want to keep this
Cos your love , yes your love , your love is the sweetest
Oh I shouldn't feel
When what we have just can't be real
chorus
Your love is the sweetest ... etc

She Wore White
03:31
|
|||
|
There she stood by the water,
her four feet in the sand
She saw the Hunter, she turned,she ran
She was faster than the silence,
More the speed of light
She was running fir her freedom
Running for her life
And she knew she could, she thought she would and now she knows she can
She realised
When the heavens called the Angel,
it’s true she’d packed her case
But she was on a different journey, to another place
She said “can you wait a moment perhaps a year or two .. I love my life it’s so beautiful’
She knew she could, she thought she would,
She had a different plan
That’s when she realised
It’s all a state of mind
Underneath enchanted trees a circle full of smiles
She wore white, she looked beautiful
His eyes so full of pride
Vows were never broken but their happiness denied
They have a child so full of laughter
His spirit lives inside
She knew it would, she knew it could
That’s how she survives
She looked so beautiful, so very beautiful
He knew she could, he knew she would
The day that she wore white
She looked so beautiful, so very beautiful
And she is beautiful
Life can be be beautiful
Just like the day that she wore white

Waterfall
04:00
|
|||
|
You should fear a heart that’s broken
Deep inside is pure emotion
Wrap it up well in your secret place
It won’t love again but at least it’s safe
When it all comes down
its like a waterfall
If a chance was worth the taking
The memories are worth the making
I hold them close, I keep them near
There are days when I can’t stop the tears
When it all comes down
it’s like a waterfall
Chorus
It all comes down
like a waterfall
It hits the ground .. no speed just sound
It all comes down like a waterfall
If a dream is what you’re keeping
You will spend your life day dreaming
I can’t live my life with right or wrong
In the end what’s done is done
When it all comes down
it’s like a waterfall
Chorus
It all comes down
like a waterfall
It hits the ground .. no speed just sound
It all comes down like a waterfall
