Again & Again
Capture me before I go
and side by side we dance
and life recreates itself
again & again
Loving thee continuously
at once our hearts aligned
I claim the one I love
to be the one
Cradle me before I grow tall
and side by side we love my
heart lenghtens itself
again & again

The Salt and the Sand
Harvest the salt and the sand
from the sea to the home
and the sea is the home to the fish
and all that we wish is a cure to endure
Water the ones that keep me alive
then give life to return to the sea
unfree from it all
we kept and forgot
we swept till we thought
it is gone
The outline of me
my skin it is leaking and thin
it speaks from within
and we breathe and we sigh
all this time, was it mine?
Water the ones that keep us alive
and give life to return to the sea
unfree from it all
we kept and forgot
we swept till we thought
it is gone
What do we owe and how do we pay
for the rays of the sun
for the days that are done
for the rise of the sea
for the land with no tree?

Parting Trees
I watch the sun until itʼs gone
itʼs not here, forced away from me
your day is my night and the nights are lonely
I sing the earth to sleep a while, eyes closed
the heat is ours and the night stars
theyʼve disappeared
The red skyʼs birds are glowing
songs forgotten
skin is burning
red flesh yearning for thirst quenching drops
highways melt underneath your feet
ashes to ashes and dust to dust
I catch the rain and drop it on the trees
forced to shed their leaves
be quiet, be quiet and catch the thieves

If/When
Just come here and live with me
before your dance begins
Donʼt rush dear before itʼs clear
our love is strong enough
If / when
would he want to be
If / when
would he want to be
Just come here and live with me
before your dance begins
If / when
would he want to be
If / when
would he want to be

Breath
Is that your breath that took me away
to where the concreteʼs grey
was traded for natureʼs green
and screens burst like a touch-me-not in spring
You whisper under everything below the sun are those
who are keeping their distance now
build resistance to all of the new
I wonʼt hold my breath but let me hold yours
I wonʼt hold my breath
Your bated words reach me
and cling on me until the ring of the gleaming days
Iʼm staying here
Iʼm home, Iʼm always home
I wonʼt hold my breath but let me hold yours
I wonʼt hold my breath

Trust
Itʼs cold, do you know where your skin is?
itʼs cold, you know where your skin is
itʼs cold, do you know where your skin is?
itʼs cold, you know where your skin is
Trust my helping hand
and drink the water that pulls you down
the lake is thin and the lake is deep
but not as deep as the love Iʼm in
I know not how to sink or swim
Trust my helping hand
and drink the water that pulls you down
the lake is thin and the lake is deep
but not as deep as the love Iʼm in
I know not how to sink or swim
Kiss the water
let me love you better
kiss the water
let me love you better

My Body
I carry my body travelling through
falling and failing the floating view
I carry my body travelling through
falling and failing the floating view
Two bodies of water
a wetland between a lovers scene
Iʼve got to know you through and through
Iʼve learned to love whatʼs left of you
Old places youʼve been
remembering everything
what you are searching for may be found
within the elsewheres within
I carry my body travelling through
falling and failing the floating view
I carry my body travelling through
falling and failing the floating view
Who welcomed you here
and kept you awake at night?
youʼre running through memories, lost
and find out where you most want to be
I carry my body travelling through
falling and failing the floating view
I carry my body travelling through
falling and failing the floating view

Skin Shout
When will the time come
when will the time come
to go home
When will my skin shout
when will my skin shout
I know when
Whatʼs left of you was always there
always
whatʼs left of you was always there
always there
When will the sea burn
when will the sea burn
I know when
I know when

Time
In winter
time dies slowly
I cry sound
wake up dear
I go
Down the river
love falls
let me fall to reach you
I fear
Rise the river rose
and dropped all itʼs stones
to flow more freely
Rise the river
roses washed ashore
I brought them home
home
Home is where the heart is
where the mouth kisses and misses you
