Night
Have a good night
And if there's trouble on your mind
There's always tomorrow
So for now,
Turn down the

Light
Have a good time,
Enjoy the shadows
Way too beautiful
To be left behind

Life
Have a good life,
And if the last day ever
Caught you by surprise
Just pretend
There's no end...
To your goodbye

Fearless smile,
Hands of wind on golden strings
You melody,
My homeless king of joy
And sorrow,
Listen,
You,
Moon-lash smile,
My silent warrior of love,
Not too far
Between nowhere and goodbye
There's a heart
You can find,
That, can be your home now

Let me be your home now

Only child of moon and sun
She learned to love the space between each one.
Lots of freedom, lots of room so she could bloom.

The braces taught her how to smile
She wasn't shy but laughing took a while.
All her teachers were surprised
She wanted first to fall and then to rise.

She was born to sail away...
She was born to sail away...

On a shore of crooked stripes
She wondered where all the stars had gone to
Till she found them in his eyes, the perfect love she could grow in...in two.

But she was born to sail away...
She was born to sail away.

Wind blows and time flies by her
She knows she's goin' somewhere
Wind blows and time flies by her
She knows she's goin' somewhere...

But she was born to sail away...
She was born to sail away....
Born to sail away
She was born to sail away.

Skylark
Have you anything to say to me?
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone's waiting to be kissed?

Oh skylark
Have you seen a valley green with spring?
Where my heart can go a journeying
Over the shadows and the rain
To a blossom covered lane

And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will o' the wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsty serenading the moon

Oh skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there
Oh skylark
Won't you lead me there?

A quarter moon is shining high
In union square
A sense of expectation
Hanging in the air
I feel a change is coming
From somewhere deep inside
I walk into the station
And take you for a ride

L train
Love train
L train
Please take me to the end of the line

Rising into darkness
Deep below the ground
I feel somehow elated
By the screeching metal sound
And i look outside the window
At the world i leave behind
Hiding in the shadows,
You gain speed in my mind

L train
Love train
L train
Please take me
Till the end of the line

For now I try,
But everything I know doesn't apply
So I
All I do is cry
Oh cry

You know, that day
I gathered all the things you didn't say
And found
That all you did was lie
Oh lie

Don't ask me why
Oh why
You're still the one that makes my teardrops dry
Don't ask me why
Oh why
So easily
You kill me and you comfort me

So today
I framed a photograph of you
Facing away

(Grazie a Eli per questo testo)

Seagulls flying through my mind
Lazy by the sea
Flowing in shades of blue 'till they're gone
I turn all my thoughts of you to this song

Traces of heartache in the sand
Spilled along the bay
They fade in the waves that roll and crumble
But your name lays indeleble?

Sway sway sway along
And lay down on my song of feathers
May may may your eyes
Close and see us together

Memories crying to the sun
Helpless in the sea
I'll be the girl you never knew one summer
You'll be a song I'll have to sing forever

(Grazie a Eli per questo testo)

Comincia il giorno come il giorno piu comune
Nell'autunno asfalto di citta
I miei pensieri al passo lento delle nuvole per tornare dentro la realta
La realta

La strada cerca il suo colore inutilmente
E sbiadiscono le attivita
La pioggia bagna i bei ricordi della gente
E l'estate piano se ne va
Se ne va

E il tuo ritratto sullo sfondo
Che s'illumina
Ed e la luce del tuo mondo
Che mi libera

Tra le pareti di una nuova confusione
Un rimpianto incontra una bugia
E tra le cose che non ho saputo amare
Io ritrovo la mia isola
Isola

E il tuo ritratto sullo sfondo
Che s'illumina
Ed e la luce del tuo mondo
Che mi libera

(Grazie a Eli per questo testo)

Alone under the stars
Alone with my guitar
I'm about to take all that love can you give
From you, my broken heart

Don't tell so any lies
Don't blame the moon and please don't cry
I'm about to take all that love can you give
From you, my broken heart

I only see blue moons
When I could see your eyes
This song's for you
From a broken heart
Just sing along
Under the stars

(Grazie a Eli per questo testo)

Spring isn't shy here
It's sunny and green
Back to a room,
Between
Somewhere and nowhere,
I love to be,
So i lay down and wonder:
If you ever think of me

See many faces
With no names
Eat local dishes
From somewhere nowhere
I'm lost and free
So i think and i wonder
If you ever think of me

Cause you and i
Are never under the same sky

Every day
And every night
I say hello
I mean goodbye
From somwhere nowhere
So i sing and i wonder
If you ever think of me

Cause you and i
Are never under the same sky

Days go by
Dreams turn gray
Sooner or later
We all run away
Somewhere nowhere
We'll always be
And with our wings on the doorway,
About to break free,
I'll stop and i'll wonder
If you ever think of me

When in the night you wander
Into my dreams, there you stay
Look at the walls of ice and anger
You build around my day
Ah!
I can feel you everywhere
You're like venom in the air
Impossible, impossible to bear

Into your eyes of amber
I'll stare until you're gone
'Cause I know the way out of you, trouble
Into the glare of the sun
Ah!!!
I can feel you everywhere
You're like venom in the air
Impossible, impossible to bear

'Cause I know the way out of you, trouble
Into the glare of te sun
Ah!!!
I can see you everywhere
You're like venom in the air
Impossible, impossible to bear

You can hear it everywhere
While I sing it to the air
You can hear it everywhere, now

When the leaves began to fall
I heard
Nature's lonesome cry of wisdom

All the birds had flown away
While I stayed
And watched alone the sky turn gray

But then winter came on a cloudy night
With the saddest smile in a bag of ice
Told me ?don't be afraid of the lonely times?

Then winter came on a cloudy night
In a moonlight dance with a starless sky
Told me ?come dance with me
You'll keep warm and wise?

And then, on a sunny april day
Spring came by
With sparkling trees and green leaves
And all the birds came back to sing
The sweetest melodies, delivered by the breeze?
?. To my ears
