We Will Touch Down

if we ever stay on the other side
i will hear these songs you cannot write
will i pick a card and leave you here
when i’ll realize you’re almost near
only entrance (8x)
would you lay you head and let it sing
i know it sounds like you & me
we’ll ride your bike into the desert
i know there is no snakes, no dirt
only entrance (8x)

lo! deep forces
i see your loneliness
lo! deep forces
i envy your remoteness
moving slowly towards me
in the darkest sky
moving equally the clouds
the snow & the northern tides

A Simple Song
04:17
|

sitting around, getting the sun
drinking the beers that you bought
today in town
nothing better, no nothing better
will happen with this song
for it’s a simple song
and we’re getting lame
when we get sun

growing patience
as a real convenience
i see you here
i see you here
smiling to the wall
waiting for a call
that will beat the morning sun
that will bleach your children's fun
oh, growing patience
oh, growing patience

Storage Tricks

i counted five puppets
white wool puppets
or was it cotton?
figures out of a basket
i hung them on the highest piece
of the roof of my private
and very own house
figures out of a basket
was it waiting for
someone else?
was it waiting for
someone else than you?

Back From The Mine
03:55
|
|||
on the far away roads of an isolated island, in the
northern part of the land that only sees light at dawn,
before it turns to dusk, facing the wind, the warm wind
of the shores that comes from out there, nowhere indeed,
i am standing on my cold feet, protected by tape,
construction tape that sticks to the boots
i will walk with you (4X)
or whoever you were
counting the reefs i will find my way back to the red
fishing house that the poet bought back when the whole
town was working for the mine, before it all went down in
the flames and the fire
i will walk with you (4X)
if you bring me there
and if i reach the room where we once slept, while
the seals were dancing underneath our feet, if i reach
that room once, emptied by the flemings, cleaned up and
ready, on call for departure
i will walk with you (4X)
to the cabin bed
if it still exists, if it ever was, as weird as we found it
and as warm as a dreamers’ bed

The Woman Of The Dunes
04:30
|
|||
holy is the doctor
the one who sees
who feeds my hunger
my broken teeth
lonely as a prisoner
the one who keeps
all secrets and lovers
way underneath
dune, sand and water
is all i’ll see
she could spell my answers
and count my beats
fresh born lovers
just how it feels
who invented flowers
and seeds

innocent
i'm gazing through the lens
for all is nothingness
innocent
the beacon seems at rest
for all is nothingness
innocent
seated on the rafter
i brave the emptiness
innocent
the gravity will help
i brave the emptiness
innocent
i'm singing while you dance
before the year begins
innocent
of all one cannot guess
before the year begins

stay in your house and celebrate
that sun that keeps us all awake (6x)
stay in your house
to sing on tape
stay in your house
and sleep. and wait.
