Sweet Holland

All the way through Holland I met this man
He was looking for someone with whom to talk for a while
He was part of the landscape, he had molded the mist
Trying to show me his whole world, we drove while smoking some weed
Take a look at the green land; mountains are so high out there
Yeah nobody can slow down someone who wants to be great
Don’t waste your time man, Tom used to say
I’ve been waiting for so long to be myself
Then he gave me a clue, who’s crazy? Not you
Yeah, don’t praise fake gods, money engenders hate
He just dreams of a better world, he was born to feel love
Is there anyone mad enough to walk the way on his own?
Sometimes he cries alone, falls and prays to the Lord
But he fights to get over, travelling across Sweet Holland
“Sweet Home”, he might say, he’s a nomad in this land
He’s a freelance kind of prophet, he used to say:
“Anytime you get rid of your roots, search and find out the truth
Yeah, remember, change is always up to you”

Tea time

Some bars are still open after they close the doors
Then the rats and the poets come together at once
That’s when strange things happen and I’m too drunk
Well it doesn’t matter at all, after Christ Devil comes
I want to travel across the globe
I want to give you… I want to give you my love
Hey listen baby, you and me on the road
I know a place somewhere; don’t you want to get lost?

You found a man ten years older, he took your innocence away (Darling…)
He played guitar, you tried on drums, you formed a band, it was 1967 (Oh Darling…)
You took some drugs to go upstage, you played your best, forgot your worst (Darling…)
Then he was gone, he left you alone, your tiny heart was broken (Darling…)
And all the times you got it; dreams were lost in the end
You never found the answer; love was gone in the end
You’ve got to find somebody; you closed your mind in the end
You travelled far, your old guitar, your thin white dog and some cover songs
were everything you needed “I don’t need no more”
Love was in the air all along the coast
You paid the cost, were found and lost, lived in a cave, slept on the floor
Then all the roads were left alone, you’ve never had that feeling, since then, anymore
And all the times you got it; dreams were lost in the end
You never found the answer; love was gone in the end
You’ve got to find somebody; you closed your mind in the end

I'll be back

I went to the park cos I never see the sun
I am one of those who always stay at home
I saw the light, she was walking far behind
Now my life has changed in many different ways
I know, maybe I’m not good enough
But I try day and night, I cry, Oh this is
Sharp and hard, but I can’t stop I’m just mad
She’s my drug, she’s my drug
Let the wind blow, will the rain stop?
Will I hold you? I want to be with you, I’ll let you know
Once again I’ll be back, waiting for the sun
Won’t you come? I don’t want to be alone
I went to the park cos I never see the sun
You stole from me what no one could steal
You and I, me and you, it’s the same old proof
Now I’ll close my eyes and I’ll try
Let the wind blow…

Turning wild

Here I am, I’ve been fine
Now it’s time to risk, you blew my mind
I’ll find a way, I’ll find a place
For you and me, just trust me babe
Oh my heart feels like turning wild
Oh my mind is just thinking
Oh my body feels like turning wild
Look on what our lives are bringing again
I feel your skin, I see the moonlight
Right through a window, deep inside my soul
Show me, please, teach me deep
Oh I won’t go just as a breeze anymore
Oh my heart feels like turning wild
Oh my pain, entirely gone
Oh my heart was in the middle of the fog
Oh my mind is just thinking… I think about you
Have a break, breathe my breath
Travel through the land of wine and sex
On the meadow have a nap
Just embrace your dreams to reach blue skies
Oh my body feels like turning wild
And my spirit’s going back home
To the countryside beside the line
Line that’s shining in the sky
Oh my heart feels like turning wild
Oh my mind is just thinking
Oh my body feels like turning wild
Look on what our lives are bringing again

I wanna love you, I wanna love you little darling, oh someday
I wanna kiss you, I wanna make you feel happy, everyday
Cos I don’t know why, every time I see you I lie
I can’t deny that I want you to be mine
“I think I love you”, I thought the first time that I saw you tripping down the alley ways
I tried to hold you, but soon the feeling stopped, yeah what a stupid boy! Anyway…
Let me try, I don’t care if you are young I’ll burn inside this fire
God, you’re the one I’m looking for
If you stay I won’t cry, I won’t leave you anytime
I just want you to notice all my love
I wanna love you…
Take your time, Oh yeah, love is hard, you’ve been down
I’ll try to show what I left behind, be strong
There’s a star for you, there’s a light deep inside
I wanna shine close to you, I’ll share my life
