1  John's Lake

​

let the sunlight run through your hands

be the boat that never lands

 

catch the moment count the stones on the way

to be one with your lake

 

ride the waves that come to meet you

from the blue when you don’t move at all

 

bring me home that solitude

bring me home your lucky stone

bring me home the world in your eyes

​

bring me home that solitude

bring me home your lucky stone

bring me home the world in your eyes

​

eve or morning lost in time

somewhere always the sun will shine

 

don’t look around to faraway calls from your dreams 

on horizons long ago

 

ride the waves that come to meet you

from the blue when you don’t move at all

 

bring me home that solitude

bring me home your lucky stone

bring me home the world in your eyes

​

bring me home that solitude

bring me home your lucky stone

bring me home the world in your eyes

​

ride the waves that come to meet you

from the blue when you don’t move at all

              

2  Silent Times

​

in your rooted silent times

I seal your untouched orb

with a yellow lemon rind

raining light you shall absorb

​

and the sun will be your universe

and the sun will be your universe

​

your voice dresses my heart

with a tender silken gown

that I wear in silent times

rustling through our town

​

and the sun will be your universe

and the sun will be your universe

and the sun

and the sun

 

be you forever and ever and ever

I feel you forever and ever and ever

take me into your silent times

​

listen, can you hear our caring hearts

dancing in the garden of lemon trees?

 

I reopen the sky for us and dress you in stars

so you shine in silence while I hold the sun

 

And the sun

And the sun

And the sun

And the sun

 

be you forever and ever and ever

I feel you forever and ever and ever

take me into your silent times

3  Wedding Song

​

you found the waterfall to take us in

we left the common ground and let go to begin 

 

where were you, who was I

concealed was our tie

 

deep in waters this song was born

deep in waters an oath was sworn

 

you knew it first and led the way

I wrote the song for our day 

as our script came from above

words met the tune and fell in love

 

you say I will 

I will say I will

you say I will 

I will say I will

you say I will 

I will say I will

you say I will 

we will

 

deep in waters this song was born

deep in waters an oath was sworn

 

you heard my voice and read my heart

I saw your core inside your art

it’s time for us to cross the sea

and craft the rings to set us free

 

you say I will 

I will say I will

you say I will 

I will say I will

you say I will 

I will say I will

you say I will 

we will

 

deep in waters this song was born

deep in waters an oath was sworn

deep in waters

4  The Frozen Sea

​

in autumn I was born by the sea

in winter I still didn’t know who they want me to be

every June they decided to send me away

I felt homesick for things I cannot say

​

and the land froze

and the land froze

and the land froze in me

​

come with me

to the land of the frozen sea

bring your passion along 

and melt me free

​

come with me

come with me

come with me

​

and the land froze

and the land froze

and the land froze in me

 

it was spring when I first saw you in a dream

didn’t search for you cos we have always been

as the years passed by I glided out of sight

all along you waited for me to alight

​

and the heart knows

and the heart knows

and heart knows in me

​

you followed me

to the land of the frozen sea

brought your passion along 

and set me free

 

follow me

follow me

follow me

5  Sleep

​

sleep in my shadow my Love

where the dawn is an island for two

sleep in my shadow my Love

where I will rest too

​

catch me in flight when I’m asleep

ground me all gently 

for I’m the only one you’ll keep

​

sleep in my shadow my Love

where the dawn is an island for two

sleep in my shadow my Love

where I will rest too

​

over the deserts you’ll see me fly

sleeping sand burns in my eye

I lost my shoes on the walk of life

it’s your ground on which I thrive

​

sleep in my shadow my Love

where the dawn is an island for two

sleep in my shadow my Love

where I will rest too

 

I conjure at day nails of light

to mark your way home at night

you dream my dreams till they are real

sparking up my long-parched zeal

​

sleep in my shadow my Love

where the dawn is an island for two

sleep in my shadow my Love

where I will rest with you

6  You Called It a Dance

​

each step you take

paves your way

each turn is a shore

for a place we call home

​

each garland I braid

eases my day

each fall takes me down

to your side of the world

​

you called it a dance

of two lovers’ light

you called it a dance

of two lovers’ light

​

 

sail on the cloud

 

sail on the cloud

​

you called it a dance

of two lovers’ light

you called it a dance

of two lovers’ light

you called it a dance
