lyrics

Lured once more
Into the vastness of the sea
And my boat still holding steady
It won’t show up on your charts
It’s so much easier out on the water
To find a way I wanna go
It’s so much easier to live my life
Going with the flow

Expectations
You have seen that I have none
When you’re lost on the horizon
There’s no need to look for one
I will return one sudden day
But never staying long enough
For you to feel you can explain
What man I am

Understand
In a cold wind
With his childlike eyes
Fall from your hand
Grains of shifting sand
Understand

Settling down
You must know that’s not for me
Curling up on an old sofa
Easily gives me the creeps
And if my face still keeps appearing
In the rising morning mist
And a voice speaks in you ear
I may not exist

Lured once more
Into the vastness of the sea
And my boat still holding steady
It won’t show up on your charts
Don’t try to follow or find me out
There’s no other girl for me
I’m just a captive of the blue
Going with the flow
Always I’m free

Some highlights have been gathered on two recently released compilations: volume 1 contains the best instrumentals, volume 2 the best songs. All done in good taste and for the enjoyment of music. Since 2006. ... more
