long ago we sailed the open seas
guided by the light of the heavenlies
i can hear them calling out to me
lord i know my heart's a heavy stone
weathered by the beating of the shore
tethered to an ever sinking hope
well the road is long
and there are many miles ahead
and the moon is high
but I remember what you said
i’m giving it time i’m giving it faith
i’m giving it more than i ever did take
no turning around no giving in
weightless as a bird
leave your worries here
take me at my word
oh there's nothing left to fear
well the road is long
and there are many miles ahead
and the moon is high
but I won’t forget what you said
i’m giving it time i’m giving it faith
i’m giving it more than i ever did take
i’m willing to run i’m willing to wait
no matter the price i’m willing to pay
no turning around no giving in
un diha siempre mansuettu hit (one day we will be free)
manhåhanao hit para i tasi (we’re going to sea)

So Nice

are you leaving in the morning
out on the first tide
did you hear it in a dream last night
telling you why
cause if you want
we can start all over again
are you spinning out of orbit
swimming in the deep blue
are you swallowing the summit
even though you never meant to
cause if you want
we can stop and come home again
cause it we be so nice
being with you’s like paradise
living in every moment
i know it would be
it would be it would be
don’t count me out
i need to know
is there a place that we can go
so take my hand give me your word
don’t ever let me go

darling time to turn down the lights
you’re gonna be just fine
calling somewhere over the dunes
you’re gonna find it soon
lost in a dream you tenderly sigh
these arms open wide
voices ringing clear in the night
show you the way to go
faces shining merry and bright
just follow the morning’s glow
lost in a dream you tenderly sigh
these arms open wide
oh child i can’t promise you gold
you know this old world ain't fair
oh child someday way down the road
i’ll give you song and prayer
håhagu ha’ gi guinifi hu (it’s always you in my dreams)
these arms open wide
waiting for you
keep me in mind
hågu bonitu (you’re my beautiful one)

hey joanne talking in your sleep again
hey joanne making all your sunday plans
waking up is easier in your head
close your eyes make believe
the pain is gone
deep inside there's a never ending song longing for a place
where your heart belongs
don’t worry darling you know
people they can't understand
safe in your keeping
i’ll give you my hand
don’t worry darling you know
someday they’ll all understand
safe in your keeping
i’ll give you my hand
waking up is easier in your head
carry on and don't look back
you carry hope in your hand

if i were your cocoon
in my arms you'd stay forever
you could be my moon
and like a bubbly tide
i’d follow you i’d follow you
if i were your balloon
safe above we'd fly together
you could be my tune
and like a humming fool
i’d follow you i’d follow you
past the sun round a corner
on a comet to wherever you are
it don't matter how far
i would sail eleven seas
oh to see you smiling at me
to wherever you are
it don't matter how far
if i were your lagoon
stormy waves could never harm you
you would find me true
and like a lighthouse
i’d watch over you
i’d follow you
past the sun round a corner
on a comet to wherever you are
it don't matter how far
i would sail eleven seas
oh to see you smiling at me
to wherever you are
it don't matter how far
i’d use up all my wishing stars
for you

Shipwrecked

started out with a smile when you met me but i was never quite sure
packed my bags for a long long journey never felt like this before
suddenly everything up is down
it was right but it's all wrong somehow
and now i’m shipwrecked
off the coast of another
broken heart somebody save me
white flags in the air
won't get me there or anywhere
i’ve got all the blue i can handle
truth be told you're just another
shark in the water
shark in the water
call me crazy but it won’t bother me
there are plenty other fish in my sea
suddenly everything up is down
it was right but it's all wrong somehow
i guess i’ll never learn
i guess i’ll never learn
i guess i’ll never my lesson

every now and again
I remember when I was younger
yeah I recall those happy days
feel it pulling me in
like I'm in a dream
and we're underwater
but I'm still breathing
and I can’t understand
why it’s happening are we getting older
oh nothing’s like it was before
fell i’m slipping away to another place
with your hand in my hand
and I’m still breathing
somewhere hidden in my memory
i know it's waiting for me there
we’ve only just begun
and the time is come
and we're slowly waking
singing our dreamers song
and the time will come
and the world is waiting
winter’s cold deep in the dark
is where the flowers long to grow
stories old safe in the heart
there is a place i long to go
don’t fear the sound
of the here and now

brown skin boy
shy and sweet
what’s your name
i think i’ve seen you
walking down my street
and he said
i am a microchild
and she said
i am a microchild
brown hair girl
she’s a dancing queen
tonight’s the night
for just a little bit
of you and me
and she said
i am a microchild
and he said
i am a microchild

give me one more rainy day
