SLEEPLESSLY SURRENDERING<br><br> Close your eyes <br> Listen to the sound of the sea<br>
Tidal waves are dancing<br>
Sleeplessly embracing shores in me <br><br> Close your eyes<br>
Listen to the sound in me<br>
My heartbeat searching a pace  <br>
Your hand at the right place <br>
Floating sand wants to settle and embrace me 
<br><br>
Sleeplessly surrendering 
<br>
Breathing together ends our suffering<br>
When the night falls down and the tide is high
<br><br>
Face to face <br>
Not moving <br>
Face to face <br>
Just breathing<br>
Face to face <br>
Not moving <br>
Until the night stands up and low tide wakes us <br><br>
Sleeplessly surrendering <br>
In the sea of blues and gold<br>
Feeling high and low <br>
<br>
Where our breath takes us <br>
Tidal waves make us <br>
<br>
Riding on  the waves <br>
In the sea of blues and gold
<br><br>
Riding on  the waves <br>
Where our breath takes us <br>
Tidal waves make us <br><br>

Sleeplessly surrendering <br>
Breathing as one ends our suffering<br>

Face to face <br>
Not moving <br>
Face to face <br>
Just breathing<br>
Just breathing<br>
Just breathing<br>
<br>
Close your eyes<br>
Listen to the air we breath<br>
Our heartbeats at the same pace<br>
Feeling settled at the right place <br>
Tidal waves wash over shores we breath<br><br>
We breath<br>


Sleeplessly Surrendering
SILK ROAD FROM SADNESS<br><br>

                    Silk Road From Sadness
YOUR SILENCE<br><br>
Your silence<br>
I don't want to fill it in<br>
<br>
Desires<br>
I don't want to imagine what could have been<br>
<br>
Your words are <br>
Still in your mind<br>
<br>
This longing<br>
To hear them is only mine <br>
<br>
Pain from the past<br>
Is still breathing inside me<br>
Pain from the past<br>
Is here to remind me
<br><br>
That not all the minds are thinking alike<br>
And what I want isn't the same as thoughts in your mind <br><br>

Hmmm hmmm
<br><br>

Your silence<br>
I don't need to put words in your mouth<br><br>

Desires<br>
I let them out but they are mine<br><br>

Hmmm hmmm<br>

                    
                    
                    Your Silence
THE HUNT AND THE SPOILS
              <br><br>
              You put your feelings in the box<br>
You don't want to have them <br>
You want them to stop <br>
<br>
You don't want to see them running freely around <br>
You don't want to get them entangled with mine<br>
<br>    
Because the game you play will leave bones behind
<br><br>
You put your feelings in the box<br>
You place that box into another box<br>
<br>
You said you threw away the key but you just handed it to me <br>
<br>
I will unlock the box and<br>
Fall into your trap<br>
Your hoax<br>
<br>
Because the game you play will leave bones behind <br><br>

The hunt<br>
The hunt and the spoils <br>
The hunt and the spoils are your motivation<br>
Your drive <br>
Aaaa<br>
The hunt<br>
The hunt and the spoils<br>
The hunt and the spoils are your motivation<br>
Your drive <br>

<br>
You put your feelings in the box<br>
Your heart is locked<br>
Your eyes are blocked<br>
<br>
You think you threw away the key but you just handed it to me<br><br>

I won't unlock your box<br>
Your soul is a frozen ice block<br>
<br>And the game I play will melt your ice away<br>
<br>
The hunt<br>
The hunt and the spoils <br>
The hunt and the spoils are no destination <br>
It's love <br>
  
                
                
                The Hunt And The Spoils
WHEN THE RAIN IS HERE AGAIN <br><br>
                    Sitting near the window<br>
Looking at the sky<br>
When the rain is falling<br>
<br>
Sitting near the window<br>
Watching every raindrop as it slowly glides over the glass <br>
Reflecting my face where my fears are crawling<br>
<br>
How long will it last?<br>
How long can I go on like this?<br>
<br>
When the rain falls down
<br>
The storm begins
<br>
My tears want to follow 
<br>
The dance it brings
<br><br>
It’s there again<br>
Just like the sky I cry<br>
My tears fall down<br>
<br>
When the rain is here again <br>
When the rain is here again <br>
When the rain is here again <br>




                    
                     When The Rain Is Here Again
DREAM OF BEING AT HOME<br><br>
Dreams are like feelings
<br>
Like a feeling of coming home<br>
<br>                 
Like sunshine after the storm<br>
Like a sunrise after the dawn<br>
Like a sunset when the day is gone<br>

<br>
Dreams are like feelings of coming home
<br><br>
Dreams are like roads<br>
Like a road leading home<br><br>

Like a road paved with stones<br>
Like a river’s endless flow<br>
Like a field of shining gold<br>
<br>
Dreams are like roads leading home<br>
<br>
Every time I look at you<br>
I feel like I’m dreaming<br>
Dreaming of being at home <br>
<br>
You are my sunshine after the storm<br>
You are my sunrise after the dawn<br>
You are my sunset when the day is gone<br>
<br>
You are my dream of being at home <br>
You are my dream of being at home <br>

                    
                    Dream Of Being At Home
THE ENDLESS CONQUEST OF THE LIGHT
 <br><br>                  
I can't stand the lies<br>
I don't wanna hide<br>
<br>
From places that haunt me<br>
From places that cry<br>
Places that grow from<br>
The shadows of lies<br>
<br>
You are no way the sun,<br>
No heat, no guiding light<br>
<br>
You wanted to tease me<br>
At first it was fine<br>
But now all those lies are <br>
bending my light<br>
<br>
In your eyes <br>
it will never be enough<br>
You are on the endless conquest of the light<br>
<br>
Manipulation creates the doubt<br> 
Your lies feed the satellites<br>
<br>
I don't want to<br>
Fill the gaps<br>
I don't want to<br>
fall into the traps<br>
<br>
In places that haunt me<br>
In places that cry<br>
Places that grow from<br>
The shadows of lies<br>
<br>In your eyes <br>
it will never be enough<br>
<br>You are on the endless conquest of the light<br>
         
                    
                    The Endless Conquest Of The Light
THE SITUATION<br><br>
                    You want me to be in this situation
<br>
When the doubt is playing with my mind
<br>
Bending the will gives you the thrill 
<br><br>
You want to see the stars falling down <br>
Falling down<br>
Falling down<br>
<br>
So you can walk on them 
<br>
When they are laying on the ground<br><br>

You want me to show the  scars?<br>
You want me to play with the sharks? <br>
<br>
 In this situation where the doubt rules my mind 
<br>Rules my mind<br>
Rules my mind<br>
<br>
You want me to be in this situation<br>
Being confused <br>
Shifting expectations <br>
<br>
Bending the will feeling the thrill <br>
<br>
You want to see me laying down <br>
So you can push my face to the ground<br>
<br>
Remaining cool and cold when my soul is sold<br>
Bending the will feeling the thrill <br>
<br>
In this situation<br>
When the doubtrules my mind<br>
<br>
The situation<br>
When the doubt<br>
Rules my mind<br>

                    
                    
                    The Situation
 SALT
<br><br>Don’t want this fire to stop<br>
Don’t want this pressure to drop<br><br>
My skin is burning 
<br>
From the thoughts you have planted in my head
<br>
My skin is burning
<br>
From the desire seeds you have spread 
<br>
My skin is burning
<br>
From the salt you have left on me 
<br>
The salt you have left on me
<br><br>
Don’t want this fire to stop<br>
Don’t want this pressure to drop<br><br>             
You hold the match <br>
You hold the rope<br>
You know what I want <br>
You don’t want to stop <br>
You started this flame<br>
You can’t let it drop <br>
<br>
I taste like salt you have left on me<br>
You have left on me<br>
<br>
Keep the fire burning<br>

                    
                     Salt
BACK IN MY MIRROR<br><br>
 I want to see your face back in my mirror
<br>
Looking at the times we once had
<br>
Reflexions, old memories, lost collections of our dreams 
<br>
Summer sadness was a theme
<br>  
<br>                  
When we tasted the lemons
<br>
And felt the rain
<br><br>
You told me I should not give up
<br>    
But maybe now the time is right 
<br>       
I'm drowning in 
<br>   
The last drops of the summer
<br><br>
Reflexions, old memories, lost collections of our dreams 
<br>
Summer sadness was a theme
    <br>                   
When you tasted like lemons 
<br>
And felt like the rain <br><br>
Those moments are gone<br>
I still want you back<br>
Those moments are gone<br>
Like the promise you’ve made<br>
Was it ever meant to be kept?<br>
<br>
When you tasted like lemons 
<br>
And felt like the rain <br><br>
I want to remember your face in my mirror<br> 
I want to feel again what I once felt<br>
<br>
I want to see your face back in my mirror <br>
But I can only see a shadow<br>
Of your back<br>
                   
                    
                    
                    Back In My Mirror
LOVING TAN LINES<br><br>
                    
                    Sunny day at the beach
<br>
Left tan lines on my skin<br>
Sunlight kissed my body<br>
But couldn't reach the places where you have been <br><br>          
You like to ride on the white road <br>
Along the milky river between two hills<br>
Follow where this river meets the salty ocean <br>
<br>
To dive deep<br>
Swim<br>
And be one with me<br>
<br>
To love my tan lines <br>
And be one with me <br>
<br>
Dive in the ocean<br>
Float on the salty water <br>
Love my tan lines<br>
And be one with me<br>
<br>
Sunny day at the beach
<br> Left tan lines on your skin <br>
Sunlight kissed your body
<br>But couldn't reach the places where I have been <br>

                    
                    
                    Loving Tan Lines

Dark sky with rainy clouds<br>
I would like to know what’s on your mind

Those clever tricks of yours<br>
How real they really are<br>
I would like to know how many times<br>
Have you played this game with successful rounds?<br>

Did you just google how to seduce a woman 
<br>
With heartbreaking lies?<br>
Heartbreaking lies<br>

Everywhere around you rain falls down <br>
When you speak those words<br>
Those heartbreaking lies<br>
<br>
How can you live with all those lies?<br>
Did googling really help you get that far?<br>
Will I ever know what’s on your mind?<br>         
Will you stay like this but forever out of my life?
<br>
<br>Heartbreaking lies<br><br>

Falling down from the dark sky above me<br>
Take my heart and break it like it's nothing<br>
Clever ticks go on the joyride inside me<br>
Cheese cheap talk, sweet lines, empty laughing <br>
<br><br>

THE NEW BEGINNING<br><br>
The new beginning
<br><br>                              
It feels like opening a new box of chocolate 
<br>
Sweet taste sensation  
<br>
Full of pleasant expectations 
<br><br>
I can't wait to taste this sweetness again<br><br>
The new beginning
<br><br>
It feels like a new present<br>
With a big bow on top <br>
It can't be a flop <br>
Tied with silk ribbons <br>
An expensive wrapping paper<br>
Sure it will reach the top<br>
<br>
The new beginning
<br><br>
But then after
<br>
The first Initial sensation<br>
Disappointment creeps in <br>
With  flourishing stagnation<br>
<br>
It is just so much different than what I thought it would be 
<br>It just feels so different than what I thought it would be
<br><br>
The new beginning
<br><br>
I was expecting more <br>
From this relation <br>
But it's again the time <br>
To move on and <br>
Manage the future expectations 
<br><br>
The new beginning 
<br>
Can start all over again
<br><br>
It will feel like a new box of chocolate <br>
It will feel again like a new expensive present <br>
<br>So let’s enjoy <br>
The new beginning<br>
Again<br>
Hmmmm<br>
Again<br><br>

The new beginning
<br>
The same old end
            <br>

WITH MY EYES CLOSED<br><br>
                    I close my eyes and I see your face above me<br>
I close my eyes and I hear your voice around me<br>
<br>                 
Your words are traveling through endless time and space<br>
Their destination is to fill this empty place<br>
<br>
Your touch feels like it's coming from hands that waited too long<br>
My skin is like the ocean following your flow<br>
<br>
With my eyes closed
<br>
With my eyes closed<br>
 I want to be with you  again
<br><br>
With my eyes closed<br>
With my eyes closed <br> I want to feel the flow again 
<br>
<br>
Unraveling the secrets deeper underground<br>
The surface is smooth and perfect but it has some hidden scars<br>
<br>
Your eyes are following my moves through time & space<br>
And all we both want is to be at the same place<br>

<br>
I close my eyes and I see your face above me<br>
I close my eyes and I hear your voice around me<br>
<br>
With my eyes closed<br>
With my eyes closed <br>I want to be with you  again<br>


                    
                    With My Eyes Closed
SHADOWS ON THE CAVE WALL<br>
<br>
Last night <br>
As I was 
<br>
Sleepwalking<br>
On the 
<br>
Rooftop <br>
Of my 
<br>
Imagination
<br><br>
Raindrops 
<br>
Were falling<br>
On my 
<br>
Face <br>
Creating 
<br>
Teasing sensation
<br><br>
Shadows on the cave wall
<br>
Puppets chained on the ground<br> With the invisible strings 
<br>
Silhouettes of hidden truth 
<br><br>
All day watching that fire reflection<br>
All day watching that fire reflection<br>
<br>
I’ve learned<br>
To
<br>
Put away 
<br>Unnecessary 
<br>
Degradations
<br><br>
Filled with <br>
Self pity <br>
And<br>
Endless stagnation<br>
<br>
Shadows on the cave wall
<br>
Puppets chained on the ground <br>With the invisible strings 
<br>
Silhouettes of hidden truth 
<br><br>
All day watching that fire reflection<br>
All day watching that fire reflection<br>
<br>
                   
                    
                    Shadows On The Cave Wall
THOUGHTS
<br><br>Too many thoughts<br>
Too many words
<br>
Too many useless paths I’m following<br>
Too many endless journeys I’m taking in <br>
<br>
Too many thoughts<br>
Too many thoughts<br>
Hmmm<br>
<br>
Too many thoughts<br>
Too many words<br>
Too many doubtful choices come to me<br>
Too many selfish flaws are blocking me<br>
<br>
She told me to smile<br>
She told me to smile and just be with it
<br>
Once in a while 
<br>
Her voice reminds me why I’m really here
<br><br>
Just let those thoughts go<br>
Just let those thoughts go<br>
Hmmm<br>
<br>
Too many dreams<br>
Too many daydreams I’m living in <br>
Too many lives<br>
Too many lifeless lives I’m sleeping in<br>
<br>
Just let those thoughts go<br>
Just let those thoughts go<br>
Hmmm<br>
<br>

Just let those dreams go<br>
Just let those dreams go<br>
Hmmmm<br>
                    
                    
                    Thoughts
RAINY DAY BLUES
<br><br>Rainy day blues<br>
Waking up in a same room <br>
<br>
And so as the day begins<br>
Outside the rain covers evening sins<br>
Street is his river<br>
It twists and spins<br> 
When the night is gone only emptiness wins<br> 
<br>
And as the 
<br>     
Rain<br>
Is falling down<br>
The streets of cobblestones are muddy ground<br>
And the pain is buried and drowned<br>
<br>
Rainy day blues<br>
Waiting in a new room<br>
<br>
And so as the day ends<br>
Outside is a desert where the pain drains<br>
I used to walk on the stones <br>
Now there are sand grains<br>
<br>
Before the dawn <br>
Past will be present<br>
<br>
City will bleed ruled by the <br>
Shells of kings and queens <br>
Red river collecting tears<br>
Until the water you drink clear <br>
<br>
And in this endless show same war goes on <br>
And in this endless flow same pain still grows<br><br>
And as the 
<br>     
Rain<br>
Is falling down<br>
The streets of cobblestones are muddy ground<br>
And the pain is buried and drowned<br>
                    
                    
                    
                    
                    Rainy Day Blues
BLACK & WHITE ROSES
 <br><br>Black & white<br>
Are pictures in my living room<br>
Black & white<br>
Are memories in my head<br>
<br>
Times with you were black & white like day & night<br>
Dark & light are shadows in your life<br>
<br>
Black & white<br>
Are only colors you can paint<br>
Black & white<br>
Are all the words you speak<br>
<br>
Times with you were black & white like day & night
<br>
Black & white roses are growing from the tears I’ve cried 
<br><br>              
Black & white roses
<br>                                                         
Black & white roses are growing from the tears I’ve cried 
<br><br>
Black & white<br>
Are roses in my living room<br>
Black & white<br>
Roses  in my hands<br>
<br>
Beauty with thorns are living side by side
<br>Their dark & light shadows cover fears and smiles 
<br><br>           
Black & white roses
<br>                                                         
Black & white roses are growing from the tears I’ve cried 
<br><br>
Beauty & sadness
<br>
Pain with smiles
<br>
Black & white roses
<br> 
Tears I’ve cried 
<br> 
Black & white roses 
<br>
Fade away in time<br>
                   
                    
                    
                    Black & White Roses
IN THE DAYLIGHT
<br><br>In the daylight
<br>
In the daylight
<br> I'm still breathing <br>
The air that hurts <br>
<br>
Bright colors are the needles piercing though my wounds<br>
Careless stranges in this kingdom where I'm passing through <br>
<br>
In the daylight<br>
In the daylight <br>I feel blue <br>
Uhh uuuuhhhh
<br><br>
The blue bus is calling us <br>
Driver where you're taking us?<br>
<br>
To the daylight<br>
To the daylight<br>
Where I'm still breathing <br>
<br>
To the daylight <br>
Where I'm breathing <br>
The air that hurts <br>
<br>
Bright colors are the landmines in this déjà vu<br>
Second place is a glass door I can't break through <br>
Strangers faces in this kingdom where I'm leaving you<br>
<br>
In the daylight<br>
In the daylight<br> I feel blue <br>
                    
                    
                    
                    
                    In The Daylight
BUTTERFLY CHAINMAIL
<br><br>If he only knew <br>
How she hides her truth<br>
<br>
When she is hiding, what she is trying to hide
<br>
When she is crying no tears leave her eyes 
<br>
On the road where she’s walked you won’t find signs 
<br><br>                      
Only sunsets of the fool's days<br> 
When she believed in love<br>
<br>
If he only knew <br>
Uuu uu u uuu<br>
<br>
When he is smiling, how lonely is his heart? 
<br>
Why all his words feel bitter after while 
<br>
Is this the same face that lies?
<br>
Pouring sweet honey and easy promises to keep her by his side
<br><br>
Another sun went down
<br>
Soothing blindfold for her tired eyes<br>
<br>
Uuuuu uuuu
<br><br>
Different times, different sides 
<br>
Once together now conflict of minds 
<br>
Final escape from Big Little Lies
<br>                   
Two fading trails in the sky so far apart
<br>
Soon invisible scars
<br><br>
He seems to be alright<br>
In his flawless usual life
<br><br>
She is a butterfly <br>
In the cloudy evening sky<br>
<br>
In the last sunset of the fool's days <br>
No blindfold around  her eyes<br>
No more confused days<br>
No more lonely nights <br>
<br>
She is a butterfly <br>
Wearing chainmail around her lonely heart <br>
<br>
Butterfly chainmail around her heart
<br>
<br>
Butterly<br> 
Clouds in the sky<br>
Butterfly chainmail<br>
High in the sky <br>
A butterfly flies <br>
Evening sky<br>
Evening clouds<br>
Uuuuuu <br>
                    
                    
                    
                    Butterfly Chainmail
SLEEP TIME CONSUMING RELATIONSHIP<br><br>
You’ve misaligned again your words and actions<br>
How long do you think it can survive just as a physical attraction?
<br>
When disappointment happened too many times before
<br>
Then high maintenance is a label quite suitable for
<br>
This
<br><br>
Sleep time consuming relationship
<br><br>
Still need to decide who enjoys
<br>
And who suffers in it

Your words are there but miss the follow up action<br>
How long can your apologizing be the main attraction?<br>               
When promises were broken too many times before
<br>
Then high maintenance is a label quite suitable for
<br>
This
<br><br>

MAZE OF THE UNSYNCHRONISED SOULS<br><br>
I just had to think about you
<br>
Don’t know why those thoughts they came through
<br><br>
We are walking on the beach again<br>
And our footprints they just fade away<br>
When the waves of the wild sea come too close<br>
Our eyes are covered with the sand that floats <br>
<br>
We are <br> Blind <br>Inside <br>
The maze
<br>
Of the unsynchronised souls<br><br>
We are blind inside the maze of the unsynchronised souls<br>
<br>
Never really got to know the true you<br>
Don’t know what you hide <br>
Don’t know where the credit is due<br>
<br>
We are walking at the same place <br>
But we are not synchronised <br>
Not at the same pace<br>
This beach is like a maze  <br>
Where our footprints disappear<br>
where our fears re-appear<br>
<br>
We are walking in the maze<br>
Of the unsynchronised souls 
<br><br>                                 
We are blind inside the maze
<br>
Of the unsynchronised souls <br><br>
The maze<br>
The maze<br>
The maze<br>
<br>
I just had to think about you<br>
Don’t know why those thoughts they came through<br>
<br>     
I want to open up and  hide my face at the same time
<br>   
I want to share my thoughts and keep them hidden at the same time
<br>   
I want to build the bridge on this beach
<br>   <br>   
But I’m blind inside this maze
<br>   
Of the unsynchronised souls<br><br>
The maze<br>
The maze<br>
The maze<br><br>
Of the unsynchronised souls<br>
<br>

I just had to think about you
                    
                    
                    Maze Of The Unsynchronised Souls
BLACK RIBBON<br><br>
Why is history repeating?
<br>
Why are the same things happening again?<br>
How is the past not bad enough to learn from?<br>
How easy is it to forget the pain?<br>
<br>  
History repeating 
<br>  
Black ribbon of restrain <br>
Wrapped tight around your eyes <br>
Indifference proclaimed <br>
<br>
History repeating 
<br>
Black ribbon of restrain<br>
Wrapped tight around your neck <br>
To numb the pulse of pain<br>
<br>       
History repeating <br>
Black ribbon of restrain <br>
<br>
Why is history repeating?<br>
Two times crossing the same river again?<br>
The same battles won and lost<br>
Ever forgotten end<br>
<br>                                                                              
Same words, same fights, same rivers, same battles
<br>Same more elaborate mistakes <br>
Same faces, same places, same melodies <br>Same sinners who only take<br>
<br>
Winners and loser are blinded alike<br>
Black ribbon numbs their senses <br>
They are paralyzed<br>
Shoulder to shoulder, kneeling for the crown
<br>
Nobody knows the reason for this fight <br><br>
Nobody knows the reason for this fight <br>
<br>
History repeating <br>
Black ribbon of restrain<br>
Wrapped tight around your eyes <br>
No distress, no shame<br>

<br>
History repeating 
<br>
Black ribbon of restrain<br>
Wrapped tight around your neck <br>
Indifference to pain<br>
<br>

History repeating <br>
Black ribbon of restrain <br>
<br>
Why is history repeating? 
<br>             
Why is what happened, now happening again?<br>
The past is not past but the future and the present<br>
How easy is it to do the same thing again? <br>
<br>
History repeating <br>
Black ribbon of restrain<br>

THE LAST DAY OF STRAWBERRIES<br><br>
You should have been there for me<br>
When the sky was touching the sea   <br>              
Blue lines blended flawlessly <br>
On the last day <br>
When the strawberries were red
<br>
Sweet and red
<br><br>
You should have been there for me<br>
When the sun was warming the streets <br>
Goodbye sweet summer dream
<br>
Where the strawberries were red
<br>
Sweet and red 
<br><br>
Perfect day 
<br>
Clear blue sky
<br>
Splendid sunny weather
<br>
One big bright smile<br>
Would fit here so much better than
<br>
The half moon shadows under my eyes
<br><br>
The half moon shadows under my eyes
<br><br>
So many people here<br>
Happy to please<br>
Too many hand in hands<br>
Sugary sweet<br>
Savoring strawberries<br>
Like we once had <br>
On a day as lovely as this <br>
When we both still cared <br>
When we both cared <br>
<br>
Sweet day<br>
The last day of strawberries<br>
<br>
Perfect day 
<br>
Clear blue sky
<br>
Splendid sunny weather
<br>
One big bright smile<br>
Would fit here so much better than
<br>
The half moon shadows under my eyes
<br><br>
The half moon shadows under my eyes
<br><br>
Perfect day 
<br>
Clear blue sky
<br>
Splendid sunny weather
<br><br>
Bittersweet day
<br><br>
The last day of strawberries
<br>
                    
                    
                    
                    The Last Day Of Strawberries
SPACE BETWEEN US<br><br>
Try to define that space between us<br>
Try to describe what is happening here<br>
<br>
All the definitions are falling down like a snow<br>
All the definitions are melting as we go <br>
<br>
Ice breaking jokes you make<br>
They get my attention<br>
But not the one you want<br>
They create more tension<br>
<br>
Your good intentions are falling down like a snow<br>
Your good intentions are melting as we go <br>
<br>
Space between us filled with melting snow <br>
Space between us is getting smaller but I can’t let it grow
<br><br>
Try to feel that energy between us<br>
Try to feel what is happening here<br>
<br>
All the limitations are falling down like a snow<br>
All the limitations are melting as we go <br>
<br>
Space between us filled with melting snow <br>
Space between us is too small but we don’t want it to grow<br>
<br>
Space between us is melting like a snow  
<br>
Space between us is not there anymore




                    
                    Space Between Us
MY SUMMER
<br><br>The color of your eyes 
<br>
Is like a summer sky<br>
Lonely clouds are passing by<br>
If it rains it’s like those clouds they cry
<br><br>
The color of your hair <br>
Is like a summer breeze<br>
Gently blowing over golden fields<br>
Slowly dancing with every grass leaf<br>
<br>
That’s how I feel the summer breeze <br>
That’s how I see the summer sky<br>
<br>               
That’s how it feels when the summer is mine
<br><br>
 Looking at the sky<br>
 Looking in your eyes<br>
Feeling the summer breeze<br>
<br>
The color of your eyes <br>
Is like a summer sky <br>
The color of your hair <br>
Is like a summer breeze<br>
<br>
Summer time with you feels like a dream <br>
Summer time with you feels so surreal
<br><br>
That’s how I see the summer sky<br>
That’s how I feel the summer breeze<br>
<br>That’s how it feels when the summer is mine<br>
That’s how it feels when the summer is mine<br><br>
When the summer is mine<br>
When the summer is mine<br>
<br>
 Looking at the sky<br>
 Looking in your eyes<br>
Feeling the summer breeze<br>


                    
                    My Summer
SUPERMOON SONG<br><br>
Have a lovely supermoon <br>
Sky is dark after our randevu <br>
Blue moon shines like a superstar<br>
Just like you are<br>
Just like you are<br>
<br>
Sky is dark when you are gone<br>
Stars are black they don’t belong<br>
Blue moon lights up the lonely sky<br>
And where am I? <br>
And where am I? <br>
<br>
Stars are black 
<br>
Unable to speak 
<br>
Think of me playing hide & seek
<br><br>

Stars are black <br>
Unable to spark<br>
Think of me when you search in dark<br>
<br>
Supermoon lights up the lonely sky
<br> And here am I 
<br> And here am I 

<br><br>
Have a lovely supermoon <br>
Have a lovely supermoon <br>
Have a lovely supermoon <br>

Musical inspiration

In addition to performing her own original music, Odeta also takes audiences on a musical journey through her greatest inspirations.

She pays tribute to the classics from the golden age of jazz and blues with her acoustic renditions of Peggy Lee's "Fever," Nina Simone's "Feeling Good," and Ella Fitzgerald's "Cry Me a River" and "Summertime."

When it comes to the hits from the successful pop/rock decades from 60s to 90s, Odeta puts her own unique spin on classics like The Doors' "Crystal Ship," Sting's "Fragile," Sinéad O'Connor’s “The Last Day of Our Acquaintance” and Cranberries' "Linger" and "Zombie."

The hits by contemporary artists like The Weeknd, Dua Lipa, Alicia Keys, and Lykke Li are just as inspiring and exciting and are transformed to the pure guitar and voice acoustic versions.

With just the sound of her guitar and a voice that can go from raw and gritty to soft and hauntingly beautiful, Odeta's covers will take you on a journey through the decades, leaving you feeling inspired, uplifted and curious about Odeta’s own music.
