Waves
Dean Lewis
There is a swelling storm
And I'm caught up in the middle of it all
And it takes control
Of the person that I thought I was
The boy I used to know
But there is a light
In the dark, and I feel its warmth
In my hands and my heart
Why can't I hold on?
It comes and goes in waves
It always does, always does
We watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood, into the flood
The freedom of falling
A feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
I'm trying hard to let go
It comes and goes in waves
It comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
Through the wind
Down to the place we used to lay when we were kids
Memories of a stolen place
Caught in the silence
An echo lost in space
It comes and goes in waves
It always does, it always does
We watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood, into the flood
The freedom of falling
A feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
I'm trying hard to let go
It comes and goes in waves
It comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
I watched my wild youth
Disappear in front of my eyes
Moments of magic and wonder
It seems so hard to find
Is it ever coming back again?
Is it ever coming back again?
Take me back to the feeling when
Everything was left to find
It comes and goes in waves
It always does, oh it always does
And the freedom of falling
A feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
I'm trying hard to let go
It comes and goes in waves
It comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
Melodrama
Lyrics in English translation
This song of mine
A hymn to love
I'm singing it to you now
With my pain
That is so strong and so big
That torments my heart
But the morning is a clear one
There's a smell of wine amidst the fields
I dreamed of you and now
I still see you there
Oh, it's so much nostalgia
Frescoes show the hill
I cry, what a madness it is
To go away later
This song of mine
A hymn to love
I sing it and I feel
All my pain
That is so strong and so big
That torments my heart
But the morning is a clear one
There's a mill amidst the fields
There is where my destiny was born
Without you, it is bitter...
Without you, it is bitter
And this heart is singing
A sweet melodrama
It's the hymn of love
That I'll sing for you
It's a melodrama that
That I sing without you
🎶 JACOB GUREVITSCH - SECRET SORROWS
Under the wisteria tree
In the pink moonlight
Her sorrows
The saddest shades of purple
🎶 HOOVERPHONIC - UNFINISHED SYMPATHY
Unfinished Sympathy
Hooverphonic
Now that I've been mad in love before
And how it could be with you
Really hurt me baby, really cut me baby
How can you have a day without a night
You're the book that I have opened
And now I've got to know much more
The curiousness of your potential kiss
Has got my mind and body aching
Really hurt me baby, really cut me baby
How can you have a day without a night
You're the book that I have opened
And now I've got to know much more
Like a soul without a mind
In a body without a heart
I'm missing every part
Like a soul without a mind
In a body without a heart
I'm missing every part
Like a soul without a mind
In a body without a heart
I'm missing every part
🎶 JESSE COOK & JILL BARBER - PETITE FLEUR
Little Flower
I have hidden
Better than anywhere else
In the garden of my heart
A little flower
This flower
Prettier than a bouquet
It secretly keeps
All my childish dreams
And the love of my parents
And all these clear mornings
Made of happy distant memories
When life
At times betrays me
You remain my happiness
Little flower
If I could
Recall my twenties for a moment
To breath
This perfume that I loved so much
In my heart
You will always bloom
In the grand garden of love
Little flower
Take this gift
That I always kept
Even when I was twenty
I have never given it away
Don't be afraid
Plucked from the bottom of one's heart
A little flower
Never dies
Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning
I sit around
Trying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry
Strange voices are sayin' (what did they say?)
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort, this heat has got right out of hand
It's a cruel, (cruel) cruel summer
Leavin' me here on my own
It's a cruel, (it's a cruel) cruel summer
Now you're gone
The city is crowded, my friends are away
And I'm on my own
It's too hot to handle, so I got to get up and go
I am sailing
I am sailing
Home again
'Cross the sea
I am sailing
Stormy waters
To be near you
To be free
I am flying
I am flying
Like a bird
'Cross the sky
I am flying
Passing high clouds
To be near you
To be free
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Through the dark night, far away
I am dying, forever crying
To be with you, who can say
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Through the dark night, far away
I am dying, forever crying
To be with you, who can say?
We are sailing, we are sailing
Home again
'Cross the sea
We are sailing
Stormy waters
To be near you
To be free
Oh, Lord, to be near you, to be free
Oh, my Lord, to be near you, to be free
Oh, my Lord, to be near you, to be free
Oh, Lord
Falling Up
Dean Lewis
Things were happening
I felt the weight of the expectation on my chest
My mind was traveling
But I swear that I don't remember where it went
They said things were growing
So why do I feel like nothing at all is left
So I'll keep on moving
If I'm standing still then I'll feel the emptiness
'Cause I get so lonely and you get so low
And I look so stupid when I lose control
I'm alone in my bedroom and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be happy, but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
'Cause I'm feeling down, but I'm falling up
And I'm breaking out, but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
I gotta change me
And If I wake up now there's a chance to start again
But if I wait
Could I get back to the place where it all began before?
I got so lonely and you got so low
And I looked so stupid when you came to my show
I'm alone in the spotlight and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be happy but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
'Cause I'm feeling down but I'm falling up
And I'm breaking out but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
And I hate the man that I've turned into
And I've come so far, what did I lose
And I swear to God I'll make it through
I'll make it through
'Cause I get so lonely and you get so low
And I looked so stupid when you came to my show
I'm alone in the spotlight and the walls are caving in
And I thought I'd be happy but I'm barely breathing
Ooh, I'm barely breathing
'Cause I'm feeling down but I'm falling up
And I'm breaking out but not out of luck
As I breathe the air into my lungs
I wanted everything but nothing's ever good enough
🎶 KATIE MELUA - I WILL BE THERE
She is like the lady down the road
Or just the woman up the street
Like any mother you may know
To me, she is the one who had it planned
To lead us all to Wonderland
She always wanted us to go
And she said
"Don't ever be lonely
Remember, I'll always care
Wherever you may be
Remember I will be there"
And like another lady that we know
She has a smile so bright and sweet
And hair as white as driven snow
Though life is never easy day to day
She has a very special way
To make us smile when we are low
And she says
"Don't ever be lonely
Remember, I'll always care
Wherever you may be
Remember I will be there
Don't ever be lonely
Remember, I will be there
I will be there
I will be there
From a gorgeous photo of Aimee 🌹 🌹 🌹 Beautiful Mess
And the lovely poem from The Poetic Vagabond Neale Horrocks
Nature dances in her dress
She dances through the beautiful mess
That does cover the forest floor
As wildness dances through the door
She does wear a colourful dress
Gliding through the beautiful mess
Where she thrills all watching eyes
As she dances under the skies
Wearing a very colourful dress
Nature dances, through a beautiful mess
Thank you Aimee 🌹 🌹 🌹 and Neale.
I changed the title after Neale’s poem
Harvest Moon
Neil Young
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away
But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart
But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

🎶 Jacob Gurevitsch Mapa de Soledad
I don’t mind being all by myself at all, not talking to anyone for a whole day, but just for one or two days is fine ^_^
Back to real world tomorrow with a long shift.
Enjoy your solitude my Flickr friends ❤️
Watercolour painting inspired by a beautiful photo on Pixabay.
Graphite. Finished of playing with a touch of pastel which should have been left out. If a person can't play in a sketchbook, where else can they?
I didn't have as long as I would have liked. With the place to myself, it was a pleasure listening the the fish slap water as they jumped and landed and the birds' songs, but I remembered I had left most of the doors open wide on the house. It shouldn't had been a problem, but you never know...
There's a very short video to go with this>>>
