Overflowing
Walking through the dawn
Of a new form of existence
A lonely, quiet felt feeling
At the start of a new day
Think I’ve sorted it out
That lost and hopeless feeling
Lonely nights and sad filled moments
Not the way to spend my days
Come to realise, come to realise
If I can just hold on
To the thought that all is never gone
A surprise to brighten the day
Is always around the corner
Don’t care what others say
A half cracked smile comes over my face
One foot in the past, one step in outer space
Perhaps it´s not so bad, that I had this love
Although the aftermath is sad
If I can just hold on, if I can just hold on
hold on , hold on, if I can just hold on
Come to realise that my thoughts won´t win the prize
hold on , hold on, hold on , hold on
A glint of light fills the sky
A shot of hope enlightens my eyes
Perhaps I will soon come out of this prison
A place where you and I are hidden
As the sunshine starts to fill my soul
And disperses the gloom of those past feelings
Of long ago

Cry Cry

Cry Cry
Cry, cry, cry out in this pain
Cry, cry till my demons will all be slain
Take a sword of valour and cut away those chains
Give up all my fear, step out of this world of shame
Try, try, try to cut this chord
Cut away from this rope, that binds me in so much pain
Pick up my courage and hold it high like a flag
I’ll hold fast to its power, hold it tight in my hands
Cry, cry out no more
Be ready to fight
Cry , cry out of love
Be drawn to the light
When I see what I was afraid of
I´ll look it in the eyes
I´ll see that’s an illusion
That tries to stoke my fear
In this moment of challenge and fear
I search for you my friend,
Hoping you will appear at the end
Then that courage flows back like the sea
Holding me in safety
Like a child at your knee
Cry, cry, cry away my fear
Cry away those countless tears
Leave them for another year
Cry, cry, wait ´til you appear
Cry, cry, cry, cry

Who Am I?

Who Am I?
Who am I?
In this subterranean world of the unseen
What is this world of mysteries and dreams?
A floating sea of ideas and histories
I want to see you in the depths of my mind
I need to find you in the depths of the earth
It´s been so long since I set out on this path
It´s been too long since I glimpsed you from a world of make believe
Stepping out of my created world
I find a place where visions and dreams are there to behold
Consciousness , yes a state of mind
But in your world just a sleight of hand
I thought it was all just me
A state of which to flee
But how could I know that nothingness is the reality?
For in that place I´m free,
Free to see both worlds are just temporary
Who am I? What is me?
A hackneyed line for the blind
In tranquillity I have become to realise the dream
That precious life is like a stream
Moving deep from mountain to sea
Just to become me
Who am I?
In this subterranean world of the unseen

Where Are You Now?

Where Are You Now?
Where are you now my love?
Hiding away from life and me?
Is your heart beating to the time of life we had?
Or have you left behind you and me?
Where do I begin to tell you how much you mean to me,
To this heart of mine that loves you?
A word on a burnt and scarred page
A line written in the sand
A melody that begins and ends in tears
Where are you my life?
Do you look over the mountains or the sea?
Do you live in the City
Or down by the sea?
Where are you now my love? My only love
Hiding away from life and me? Hiding from life and me?
Where are you now my love?
Hiding away from life and me?
Do you walk along the riverside
Or do you stay alone and hide?
Not knowing where you are
My treasure of gold that is lost
Lost for ever, buried deep
Like a restless sleep, a restless sleep
You and me
Rest In the arms of memory, if you are still alive
Be blessed in the folds of mystery, if you did not survive
You keep safe, keep happy my love
Or rest in Peace
Rest in Peace, oh rest in Peace my love

Flower Of Love

Flower of Love
Petals of a flower of love
Drop down one by one by one
Shedding perfection in their fall
Love returning to earth
Tread softly over that sacred ground
Leave to rest the treasure we once found
It can never be taken back
It lives in its own memory
That child is no longer
No longer with you
No more in your world
But not forgotten
Oh sweet words of the poet
That dance off the page
No longer do you stir my heart
How can they, now I don´t have you?
Oh sweet portraits of the past
That hang on my barren walls
How can you inspire me
Now that you are gone?
Oh soulful music of the time
That should bring harmony to the soul
How can you give me rest
Now you are no longer here?
But wait, when the whithered flower falls
A new love will spring up one day
Not greater, nor less
But a new flower to bless

Rainy Days In California
Rainy days in California
Wondering what´s to come around the corner
There´s no need to worry when you are near me
Counting days until you call me
Pacing rows to keep me falling
Waiting for the moment to come, when I can see you again
Memories fade, the days are a blur
The time goes by, just give me a sign
I´m waiting for you, with nothing to do
Just being around, kicking my shoes
Give me a chance, give me a call
Let me know what I´m living for
Think I´ll walk along the shoreline
Watching the waves and give you more time
Give you a chance to think about it
I´m waiting to hear, if you will appear
I´m looking for you, to tell me it´s true
That we have a life together in love,
That you will come home, so I won´t be alone
Tell me you care, share all your thoughts
I´m waiting to hear if you´re still there
Rainy days in California
The sun is hiding around the corner
Rainy days in California
Wondering what´s to come
Around the corner

Surrender
I set out from the West, of those forgotten lands
I was searching for my friend, in the wilderness of those sands
I forgot my fear and bewilderment
As I passed through the gates of hell
I fought to hide and runaway
But my quest kept me alive
Onward I took each step on harsh and uneven paths
When I faltered, I took a breath and held your smile in my hands
When I slipped up and lost my step, I held your smile then in my heart
Step by step, I travelled onward through those dark days and nights
Never once did I give in to the the nagging thoughts of survival
It took me a while to understand
Exactly what I wanted, I needed
I thought it was just to see you again
Now I know it was more, to believe in you to the end
Oh my Elvin Queen I miss you, I miss that smile on your face
Yours is the most beautiful face, that I have ever seen
You light up all my world and everyone´s too
I see you in the forest and the mountains too
If I ever get to see you again, a reflection of my mind
If I ever touch your feet again, a gesture so sublime
I’ll know my journey has ended in this land,
As you are not of this world
I’ll know my journey has ended
I’ve come in from the cold, to be with you
To be with you

One Breath
Look into my eyes, tell me what you see there?
How deep will you look at me? Tell me what you see!
Are you scared to go too deep, in case you are no longer free there,
Free to wander around this land without a care, with no despair?
Nothing holding me down to fate without a crown
Freedom such a nice thing
But, come on, do you think it´s real?
Do you know where to begin?
Look a little longer, be courageous, hold that stare
Or is it that you just really can´t or you just don’t care?
If you see the love I hold for you
You may think that it could be true
But perhaps you’ll carry on wondering
You may think that it could be true
But perhaps you’ll carry on in your world
Until you are black and blue
Keep on wondering, it could be true
I have only kindness and love for you
So it´s your choice to look or not
Perhaps one day you´ll finally choose
I have only kindness and love for you
in which case I may just lose, or not
I have only kindness and love for you

Image Of Your Love
Is it true you only ever wished the best for me?
Is it true you never spoke in jest to me?
Now your words are written in the cloudy skies
Cannot see them clearly however hard I try
Is it so, your words and meaning have a place?
To keep our memories, to keep the faith?
Or only just a record of what has gone?
Before that day when it all unspun?
I hold the image of your love
In both eyes, ears and in my heart
As the storm clouds fill my soul
The memories fade from long ago
Hold, hold on, hold on to that sweet memory
A picture of you and me
Come closer, come closer
Come closer now, take my hand
Drift through the clouds from another land
Share a gaze, look into my eyes
Tell me you’re here, it´s not, not a lie
If only I could hold you tight
Instead of laying here, feeling out of sight
I would tell you of my happiness
That you and I have at last met
The pain and sorrow cannot last
These pictures and feelings from the past
I know somehow you will drive them away,
If only to come back another day
Is it you or just another band
Of your hair, golden light, a magic strand
Weaving towards me from a mystery place
Tears flow like pearls along my face
Hold on to those sweet memories, hold on
Hello, hello goodbyes, Hello, hello goodbyes
Which one is it before I die, which one?
Perhaps it was never meant to be?
But still I hope for you and me
Hold on
Hold on to that sweet memory, a picture of you and me

One More Moment
Whenever I look up at the sky for you
All I see is your kindness
Whenever I sing out a song for you
I know that you feel me with you
Reach out hold me
Reach out hold me
The loneliness of dark winter´s nights
Keeping my sadness
The quiet days and very long nights
Keep me so empty
How long can I keep this distance from you?
Can I hold on to the thought of you?
Wish you were near me
Wish you were here close to me
Wish you were here
Can the strong seas carry me to you?
A ship with no anchor
Can the waves of your swirling hair
Keep me afloat till I reach you?
Can a few words I send forth to you
Come back and kiss me?
Can a few tears I shed for you
Wish away sorrow and make the sunshine?
Wish you were near me
Wish you were here close to me
Wish you were here
Wish you were near
Is it only another year gone by,
Where I look at your empty chair?
A world of pain and no gain
Cause you’re not here with me
I’ll take leave of this lonely town
Catch that flight and be with you
Settle down
To a life of bliss and happiness
One more moment with you

Journey to The Sunshine
Waiting for our day to begin, been here forever I need to get away
The rail-tracks run in straight lines, dividing paths from roads, carving new ways untold
Rising up with the view, crossing bridges to get to you
Those tracks are part of my mind, carving through my life
through and through and through ways to you, way to get to you
Here it comes, the twelve thirty-four, right on time must be for me
One, two three four
Hope it stops here not a wish unfulfilled, take my ticket check my bill
Doors opening wide, strangers getting out, thoughts running about worries, gone away
Journey to The Sunshine
Up on a runner to get on board, feels like adventure, like going abroad
Of we go clickety clack, hope to get there soon, hope to keep it on track
Just a journey, a journey to you
A travel for a time anew
Won't check how long and just hope it's all true, my journey to the sunshine for you....
journey to the sunshine for you
Just a ride to your time, running to you, it's not a crime
At last I get to you, most of the time, to see you most of the time
Journey to the sunshine
Journey to your sunshine, as least I get to see you most of the time

Got hooked after the first 5 minutes. A lengthy genre pioneered (arguably) by Yes, but taken further by Fragile, and missing from the latter yes albums. Fragile are their own band, leaving the tribute tag behind. Yep.... more to explore. Looking forward to receiving the CD. Wish their was an option for an autographed copy though. HayHo.
