The Journey
03:15

Last night I fooled around, downtown in dizzy lanes
I got a taxi back home and the driver claimed
he once had been a rich man, for years in Cape Town
but life turned its back on him, and never turned around
He rolled in royal places, in luxury hotels
in women and cocaine addicted, in habits of his wealth
till money flew away with a wasteful wind
then Thailand called him for a wife, who knows maybe a kid
It was love at first sight, in pleasure's isle he writhed
in city's alleys pleased her and she pleased him twice
she breathed in him a freedom, a soothing rippled waltz
but took away his beauty and left him in a song
to dance among
red and yellow
leaves of fall

Take It All Away
03:18
|

Barefoot I walk through cyclones of fire
they burn it all down like a great empire
I chase my dreams in burning nightmares
and when I wake up, those flames are everywhere
My body is weak and lava is on my back
but I go on cause the fire is in my heart
digging for home in a homeless world
one day I'll fly though I'm a flightless bird
Where's the ocean now
to wash my soul somehow
where's the tidal wave
the everlasting rain
to take it all away
The mountains cry and volcanos roar
spitting their fireballs like dragons making war
there's nothing left or nowhere else to go
but I go on through fire to the unknown

Long For A Change
03:29
|

I know a man who came to be
a fading glow in given promises
a burning fire inside a tear
a caring mother
I know a man who came to be
a civil war, a boy hiding a beast
a cast away in open seas
a loving brother of the world
I know a man who came to be
a wild hungry lion and a prey
a freefall in a floating dream
a rolling lover
I tell you now, he came to be
a nation in exile, a rising tide
a flowing silence staring at
the urban sky
and when I think I don’t know him
or that he ‘s a thousand miles away,
I find him everyday in me
as I long for a change

Old Days
04:19
|

In the fields we strolled
with our trousers torn,
through the air we heard grandma
calling us home
Beneath the neighbour's farm
we buried our whispering secrets,
hunted by wild barking dogs
we hid in tree holes
Oh how I miss the old days
the old days
the old days
the old days
On the olive trees
I tasted Mary's lips
till a grasshopper rest on her cold white skin
Scared to death she spinned
she run away from me
down and down to the orange painted hills
Behind the old lighthouse
we took off all our clothes
holding your hand
we dived in endless blue

Hey
03:28
|

Don't pretend babe, like there's nothing going on
I know you want it, I can't go wrong
Babe you ‘re rolling down my way
Dance for me yeah, show me what you got
All I see is you naked in devil's throne
Babe you’ re rolling down my way
I 've been treated like a fool before
Now I want you, tomorrow I don't know
Babe you’ re rolling down my way

Come On
03:50
|
|||
come on sail with me in a colourful world
like penguins and seals, we 'll dive everywhere
in the thundering rain, in the silence of fields
come on fly with me, in the bluest of blue
over the mountain tops, on the horizon's edge
where the sun goes down and it rises again,
come out of the winds and the storm
deep in your soul,
babe our home is the dawn
come on run with me, through the concrete forests
hear the echoing sounds of creatures and birds
go leave all your nightmares
under your bed
come on find with me your compass, your pillow
there are no borderlines no country for us
just dream for a while and forget the past
come out of the winds and the storm
deep in your soul,
babe our home is the dawn

Once Upon A Time
03:47
|

And the sea will be in its wildest
like a furious beast untamed,
swallowing all your traces
taking you away
And the skies will cry an ocean
And the winds will blow the day
This very moment of goodbye
still so hard for me to say it
And the storm will be so violent
Outside but more in me
I ‘ll be homeless, I ‘ll feel broken
I know how ‘s gonna be
look at me now, how I'm hangin
from a memory remained
how I tickle all those feelings
how I 'm dragged out in the rain
And the spring will come in green dress,
light will roll by the trees
bringing life back in the forest
leaving you in yesterday

Wake Up
03:32
|
|||
Wake up
Blow up my mind
Like balloons
we ‘re divin in the sky
what is known
soon will be forgotten
are we still
an unknown God not rotten
Who will be hidden from his fate
Caught in sneaky webs
Of right time or late
All we need is a change
All the shades of past
Soon will be dust
we ‘ll find new troubles on our way
but we own ourselves from today
you gotta be me
I gotta be you
To break the cage
