Man, I should be getting lost
Not staying here
Living closer to my bones
a 20-something old
is it all
water, fall !/?
how I wonder
is this all?
Man, I took this time to learn
only cloud names
Waving feathers at the sky
heed the nimbus pour!
is this all
water, fall !/?
how I wonder
is this all?
Am I trying all in vain,
trying to make it rain?

I See it in the Clouds
04:21
|
|||
How can you say you don’t see it yet it’s right in there
we are all we will need, it’s not despair or promises
it’s in the clouds, it’s meant to be...
in between those 2 posts, to the right of the forest line
look up from there, squint your eyes
it’s not despair, it’s right in there
strange how you say
you can’t see it yet…
high in there the water flows and claims a form
moving air will soon align our line of sight
and I know you'll see it then
I see it now
I see it now
wait in here, just a sec
Let me get my International Cloud Atlas
no YOU wait here, “just a sec”
you’re only seeing what you want to see
even when the clouds look down see us differently
how come you can’t see that too?
high in there the water flows and claims a form
moving air will soon align our line of sight
and I know you'll see it then
I see it now
I see you now

Volta-do-Mar
04:32
|
|||
O luar lá no ar pinta o céu de ambar
e não choveu…
um sossego à mercê não dá mais pra entender
não é cais…
volte a voltar,
volta-do-mar
Calmaria interna
Eterna atonia
no rodapé da maré, uma ideia de lés a lés
traço de areia…
e ter o mar e não tentar é viver sem divagar
sem nunca ser…
volte a voltar,
volta-do-mar
Calmaria Interna
Eterna atonia
Da terra ao mar
eterna calmaria

Magpie
03:49
|
|||
One by one by one by one…
where are these magpies all coming from?
Sun by sun they come around
I stop in awe to listen to their calls
I’m counting six… maybe more…
Makes me think it’s spring all over
Mundane morning
All the Glory
bursting through the ordinary
Colours shining too
Now I see it
Holy ennui
Blessed be those days in yellow
really, golden
(One by one by one by one…)
The way the oak tree bends over the well
Makes me think it’s spring all over
Mundane morning
All the Glory
bursting through the ordinary
Colours shining too
Now I see it
Holy ennui
Blessed be those days in yellow
really, golden

On the Morrow
05:52
|
|||
While I let the garden grow wild
in my mind
I'm telling time by staring at the shade of the keep out (sign?) sigh
and who knows where I'll be on the morrow?
On the morrow...
Night, night
is here and gone again
withal I stay
here and then it's gone again
withal I stay
While the wild aisle set in a thin coat
of milestone
is overlaid by the dried overgrowth, in line with my sight
who knows where I'll be on the morrow
...
Night, night
is here and gone again
withal I stay
here and then it's gone again
I overstayed…

May

Maybe I am as I may be
Maybe I am something more
Feather talker
Arrow walker
Maybe I am all I’ll be
Never have I have gone beyond my dear narrative
Never have I ever reckon how much is inherited
how much is learned
Can I be
more than this can I be free?
Can’t I need
Only this can I be me?
Maybe I am as I may be
Maybe I am something more
Feather talker
Arrow walker
Maybe I am all I’ll be
In the meadows I am found
Come what may
Can I see
only this can I be free?
Can’t I need
Only this, can’t I just breathe?
Maybe I am as I may be
Maybe I am something more
Feather talker
Arrow walker
Maybe I am all I’ll be
In the meadows I’ll be found
Me and borrowed echoes
Come what may
Only a feather talker
Only an arrow walker

Second Nature
04:43
|
|||
Faking can be quite the same
As doing the real thing
if you pretend everyday for a while
some can not tell, some will know
some people were there before
So play the part simply memorize the lines
One day you will find, who’s behind
hopefully, brain chemistry
And all of that guilt will veil away
Morning has broken, void of clouds
I’m taking my dog for a walk
Nothing between wind and will
I try
It’s fairly alright
to green eyes
it’s all the same
it’s all the same
I guess…
Man, wake up, it’s spring already…

Kaleidoscope
05:16
|

Sorry that I stepped on your Kaleidoscope
You know well I didn't mean to hurt you
Let's hope you will see
"it flows"
Let's hope...
If I let you doubt
you can do without
and let it be springtime inside
Do the dance even if there's no cloud in sight
Take a breath look inside, say, what do you see?
"Spinning Colours, like when seasons change
Feeling Evergreen, carried by the wind"
If I let you doubt
you can do without
and let it be springtime inside
If you are in doubt
If you see no clouds
There is springtime inside you
"I should feel like BLOOMING"

Swan Song
04:00
|
|||
All’s been said
I’m young again
No more a blunderbuss
All’s been felt
so now I pine
for something more than love
something more than love
I’m in life
here anew
for the first time
All the best
from this harvest
is already with you
I’ll flourish
tangled in vines
so leave me here to bloom
I’ll see you bloom too
I’m in life
here anew
for the first time
I’m in life
here at last
for the closing time
