One thousand tiny steps
03:54
|

with every step that you take • you clearly move further away • from where I stand • from where I am • so please stay • but not as close as before • not too far so I won’t feel ignored • just be around • be near • you know I still need you here • one thousand tiny steps • each one invisible to the eye • it feels like more than a distance • between you and I • it’s been so long • quite some time • since we sat down and talked for a while • about how things are • how you’ve been • so let us begin • I know that things have changed • things will never be the same • but stay around • stay near • you know I still want you here • one thousand tiny steps • each one invisible to the eye • it feels like more than a distance • between you and I • you’re slowly slipping out of my life • through a back door • created by time and bad stars aligned • our past seems to blur • our future’s disappeared • the only thing left • a very thin thread that’s getting increasingly unclear •

Grateful & humbled
03:56
|

|
I am grateful for the time given to me • for each day that I wake up
and open my eyes • I am grateful for this fragile body • for it takes me wherever I may want to go • I’m not holding on to the past • I’m not yearning for the future • I’m here • present in this moment • living my life • here and now • I am humbled by nature's stunning beauty • for it's present in everything great and small • I am humbled by the stars in the sky • for I will never understand how and why • I’m not holding on to the past • I’m not yearning for the future • I’m here • present in this moment • living my life • here and now • but it's so easy to go astray • when seeing familiar things all around me • the magic and beauty seem to fade away • so it takes time to slow down and start really looking again • I am grateful for having you as a friend • for every moment I spend with you •

Reflections

I tried at least a hundred times • to erase the thought of you • from my mind • I can’t deny • something’s changing inside • friends or
lovers • I cannot decide • I like • the softness of your smile • the lines on your face when you frown • and the way you tilt your head • while playing • with your hair • I tried at least a hundred times • to erase the thought of you • from my mind • I won’t deny • something’s changing inside • friends or lovers • I cannot decide • the more I try to resist giving in • the more it wins me over • how can I let it go • I tried at least a hundred times • to erase the thought of you • from my mind • I don’t deny • something’s changing inside • friends or lovers • I cannot decide •

Letting go
03:04
|
|||
|
I’m learning to let go of all the ones I love • don’t want them to feel obliged to stay I suppose • so I stand here with an open heart • giving space and time to everyone to stay to part • I’m learning to let go of all of my thoughts • don’t want them to make me feel like I’m caught • so I stand here with an open mind • watching the stream of thoughts go by • like a river wild and wide • and when I finally learn to let go • I’ll be cured of my desire to hold on • then I’ll find myself again and I’ll shine inside out • radiating love happiness and no more doubt • I do believe everything that’s meant to be • will then all come back here to find me •

SOMETHING YOU ALREADY KNOW •
I want to tell you something you already know • always
thought love didn’t need any words at all • but left unspoken it will always hold us back • we would never be able to go on and build on that • you make me smile • you bring out the best in me every single time • you make me shine • I don’t want to change your mind you see • just want to make it clear how much you mean to me • wish I had told you all this a long time
ago • don’t want to keep it to myself anymore • you make me smile • you bring out the best in me every single time • you make me shine • for so long I’ve felt utterly ashamed and bad • one day I decided to change • now I’m just glad • you make me smile • you bring out the best in me every single time • you make me
shine •

Across the line
02:46
|
|||
|
I know you doubt • most of the time • so I guess you must question •
how it would work out • if we’d cross the line • between friendship and affection • let love sweep us off our feet • let love bring us to our knees • and let us become • one • you know I’d like • to reassure you • of the things about to happen • we’re both afraid • to lose what
we have • we’re struggling to let our hearts go on • let love sweep us off our feet • let love bring us to our knees • and let us become • one • this is the point of no return • from here there’s no turning back • the final barrier is slowly breaking down • a simple touch turned everything around • we’ve finally crossed the line •

Home

|

|
we’re lying here side by side • your head upon my chest • my fingers running through your hair • this is truly heaven at its best • et us unite • our naked bodies lying side by side • all through the night • let us come home to each other’s arms • remember yours by their taste • let us unite • our naked bodies lying side by side • all through the night • let us come home to each other’s arms • we’re lying here side by side • your arm around my waist • I can feel every beat of your heart • my lips remember yours by their taste • let us unite • our naked bodies lying side by side • all through the night • let us come home to each other’s arms • remember yours by their taste • let us unite • our naked bodies lying side by side • all through the night • let us come home to each other’s arms • it’s getting harder to remember how life was like • before we crossed the line • I feels already so familiar • to hold you in these arms of mine • let us unite • our naked bodies lying side by side • all through the night • let us come home to each other’s arms • this is our home •

The promise
03:33
|
|||
|
We met when we had lost our faith in love • it was nothing we were proud of • but we just believed • that our hearts could never open up again • so while love was right in front of our eyes • we ignored all the obvious signs • it took us some time • to realise my heart is yours and yours is mine • one day some time ago • we made a promise to never let go • to always hold on • forever and one day • forever you and me • although we chose to live side by side • the road of love is not an easy ride • the challenges ahead • will force us to keep working hard for it • one day some time ago • we made a promise to never let go • to always hold on • forever and one day • forever you and me • may stormy days cross our path • so that our love can grow even stronger • may good days cross our path • so that we can celebrate the love we share •

The greatest gift
03:59
|
|||
|
First our hearts became intertwined • then our bodies did the same • now we share a connection so divine • and it’s one that cannot be undone • the greatest gift that anyone can receive • is a child of your own lying safely in your arms • with your own flesh and blood close to your skin • it’s a whole other level of love that you are feeling • 100% of pure love • made by you and me • only the very best of us both • united in perfect harmony • the greatest gift that anyone can receive • is a child of your own lying safely in
your arms • with your own flesh and blood close to your skin • it’s a whole other level of love that you are feeling • so small and vulnerable • yet you changed our lives profoundly • your arrival is no less than a miracle • we are so grateful you are here • the greatest gift that anyone can receive • is a child of your own lying safely in your arms • with your own flesh and blood close to your skin • it’s a whole other level of love that you are feeling •

Waves
06:27
|
|||
|
I’m scared of my own thoughts • all because of the giant waves • of dark feelings they can create • even one single thought • can cause a storm inside my mind • and make me go deaf and blind • every sound • no matter how loud • will eventually fade out • every wave • no matter how high • will eventually pass by • the rhythm of thoughts is the pulse of my life • in the midst of such a storm • there’s poison running through my veins • it feels like going insane • and when I’m at my worst • I hurt the ones I love the most • so I’d rather give up the ghost • every sound • no matter how loud • will eventually fade out • every wave • no matter
how high • will eventually pass by • the rhythm of thoughts is the pulse of my life • the rhythm of thoughts is the pulse of my life • all I need is time • and solitude to find • the answers inside • to rise above the storm • every sound • no matter how loud • will eventually fade out • every wave • no matter how high • will eventually pass by • the rhythm of thoughts is the pulse of my life •
