10 Oceans

sun is settling down
I’m touching the sky
mmm
higher, swimming and flying
watching the ocean
our stories in blue

hold me
before I go
tell me what you feel
is it fake or is it real
watch me
before I fall
show me what you see
in my golden galaxy

sweet maple eyes
I’m drowning too deep
closer, I wanna remember
how it feels to fly
and I don’t wanna lie

catch me
when I fall
tell me it’s okay
that we won’t fade away
wake me
after I’m gone
show me that it’s real
and we won’t disappear

19 Minutes

it’s 19 minutes after midnight
and again we lost the fight
talking for so many hours
the universe was ours

I loved your fire and wind
like Mr. Sagan loved everything
I loved your kind and gentle side
and I just couldn’t hide

flower in my hair, your eyes, brightly rare
no it wasn’t fair, we were there
your heart in the air, flying, being scared
loving souls we shared anywhere

you made me laugh, you broke my heart
you made me proud, you made me cry
for 19 times
over and over

saving ourselves in photographs
so many tears, so many smiles
reading books and sharing poems
making music and writing songs

our heads in space, time; we couldn’t chase
the truth we didn’t face, strong embrace
love in brittle shape, no way to escape
words wearing a cape… film tape…

…sitting at number 19
drinking tea and talking
it’s 19 minutes after midnight
and once again we lost the fight

25 Years

I’m sitting here, writing you a song
it’s the hardest one of all
I’m sitting here, I don’t know what to say
so listen, please, this very last time

you were my song, for all my life
I loved you since I was five
now it’s been so long since we spoke
this silence.. who would have thought?

your deep blue eyes
my young and fragile heart
your voice singing bravely for me
and mine.. for you..

sitting close and holding hands
believing, there’s a chance
to be the ones we used to be
to be brave, to try.. and see..

it’s bittersweet to watch you grow
who you are, I don’t know..
and I’m sorry, I’m sorry for.. you know..
I know you know..

your deep blue eyes
my young and fragile heart
your voice singing bravely for me
and mine.. for you.. for you..

400 Miles

look up to the sky
you’ll fly to us
look up when you cry
you’ll find us

to the stars where we can meet again
meet our souls
to touch you when you are so far away

400 miles and a different time
so many mountains we can’t climb
to be, to be
400 miles and broken hearts
I should’ve looked more into your eyes
when we had the chance

I believe that
I will meet you again
you will be a stranger
but I will know that it’s you

U

400 miles and different time
so many mountains we can’t climb
to be, to be
400 miles and broken hearts
I should’ve looked more into your eyes
when we had the chance

400 miles apart

52 Memories

it’s the middle of the summer
hot days, cold river
sleeping bags in tents around

friends and aunts and uncles
mom and dad and brothers
and our little darling ones

campfire in the evening
playing songs and singing
someone never goes to sleep

we’ll make a path of candles
watching the sparkles
surrounded by fireflies

ú
ú

morning tea and golden trees
frozen nose in a cheerful breeze
drinking from the forest spring

running through the grass and water
growing up, getting older
painting our memories

our memories are here
and they’ll always be
something close to our hearts
when you and I were young

my memories are here
and they’ll always be
something close to my heart
when you and I were young
