Mimi shake the dirt off your knees
Throw your hands again into the daffodils
Let you blow be thunder
Upon the enemy’s advance
Don’t worry about a thing
For that shadow will eat itself to dust
I swear it has nothing but its own cast
Mimi sing yourself a little tune
Keep your feet firm on the ground
Your blue gaze makes the world go around
For that shadow will eat itself to dust
I swear it has nothing but its own cast

Back to the water
What do you see?
Back to the water
Let yourself live
The pieces go
Back to a whole
It comes It comes It comes
I am still with you
I’ll always be
What do you belong to?
What do you see?
The pieces go
Back to a whole
It comes for you
It comes

Dear, can I call you dear
When I see the land change in your eyes?
The color, the song, your kiss goodbye
It’s been a long year
Each day its own surprise
The city holds me, and I keep loving
Dear can i call you dear?
And it feels like all is about to be
And everything stands still
Dear, can I call you dear
Once again, the lake against the distant sky
The color, the song, your kiss goodbye

Every story I heard
I’m glad I heard
The one about heaven
The one where you come home
The one in the eyes of the kind in this town
The one where the madman kept chasing ‘till he drowned
Something hides in the night of the great machine
But it’s a warm night that I see
You ask me to dance
So let’s
Let the streets carry
and the wind howl
I want no answer
Just to believe, If I can
To be lost
In the crowd
Something hides in the night of the great machine
But it’s a warm night that I see
(Death walks away in the eyes of a child,
Sirens sing to none).

Your eyes have come
Like summer's scream
To fill the streets
To make me wonder
To laugh in my face
To pull me under
To make all forget
Don't leave just yet
Before it all ends
Come walk with me
On the red red hill
On the red red hill
Tell me everything

Black Rose

Black Rose (words from a poem by Zbigniew Herbert)
It emerges black
From eyes blinded by lime
It touches the air
And stands like diamond
Amidst planetary chaos
Black rose, in a black rose what do you hide?
Lead out color from a black rose
Like a memory from a burnt city
Black rose, in a black rose what do you hide?

You Who Speaks
02:59

All the crying voices left for other shores
All the missing lines have gone not to return
Wait
God stays above, and this is what I tell you now
There ain't no love and there ain't no vow
Just a thin, white hand
You, who speaks but passes like the light
You, who looks but misses

Passes the Flame
04:22
|

A silent man wrote his name
The dearest gift of all
Letter by letter
Another hand guided the trace of an angel in this world
Passing the flame passing time
Passes the flame passes time
Living together
Not such a special thing
It’s only 27 years
Along the current the ferry sets sail
He teased and looked away
All smiled turned to the quay
Passing the flame passing time
Passes the flame passes time
It was high noon when the stranger spoke
To save her little soul
Never to be seen again and I am told
The real him was 90 years old
Did you ever dream life would be this way
Reason lost and found again
The window embraced your embrace
Just a glimpse of a day
Lucy combed her hair
Passing the flame passing time
Passes the flame passes time
Pick an apple
But maybe just one or two
The grenades she carries beneath they are for you
You who will lie under the hill
Just a child you too
Who will walk here when we are all through?
Passing the flame passing time
Passes the flame passes time
And all my women gather for a smoke or two
What’s the big deal now?
What else is new?

The sun rises where it rises
And sometimes so we rise
All lost things behind
The sun rises where it rises
It left an old trace
on your old pretty face
All things lost behind
Sometimes so we rise
[Clean]
