1.
Misunderstood In her eyes you can see the storm that is coming In her face you can see the longing and the yearning And the sounds that she makes Don't arrive Dancing in the dark She's dancing in the dark To many roads and not enough bridges To many words and not enough pages And the sounds that she makes Don't arrive Dancing in the dark She's dancing in the dark She's drowning in a river Dreaming of the sea

Yellow Fever 04:07
Yellow Fever He watches the trains passing by His hair is in his face but he cuts it off Sometimes he likes to bike in the snow He's not afraid to fall off Sometimes he walks alone 'cause he misses her It's contagious He bites his nails that's just the way it is He never smokes but drinks a lot of coffee He doesn't like to sleep to late All of his women know how to knit He sings sometimes It's contagious Sometimes you just gatta wait for it And he never questions something that feels good He's hidding from the world in a bubble of soap He likes to rest under the shaddow of a mountain It's contageous Sometimes you just gatta wait for it It's contageous
3.
Just a Little Girl Just a little girl Playing in the rain Reminds me of the one I left behind in pain There are just a few Just a few who knew What happened to her then In the arms of that men There's the little girl Playing in the rain Changing every minute Searching every day Waiting to be loved In every possible way She is filling herself up She just want to play So young in this old world She's facing the man Sitting in the dark

Septolini 03:04
eptolini See me walking down the street See me falling Moon's up nights up See me dancing See me looking far ahead See me dreaming Hou la léja lalo léj oh Hou la léja lalo léj oh Eja lalo léj oh Lo waya One down Two up See me growing See me laugh it all away See me joking They don't understand what I am saying Hou la léja lalo léj oh Hou la léja lalo léj oh Eja lalo léj oh Lo waya Cry me an ocean of stars Is back was an ocean of stars And nothing compares Nothing compares In a moment I will shine But tomorrow the lights are low The lights are low And I am moving I am moving Whala leyo Hou la léja lalo léj oh Hou la léja lalo léj oh Eja lalo léj oh Lo waya

Sit Down 04:33
Sit Down I'd like to fly Over the lake Touch the water With my wings Sometimes I would fly Higher and higher To see the shore From up above Sometimes I would dive Deeper and deeper To see the shades All around me And I feel different And I feel I'd like to fly Over the lake Direction home Let's bake a cake And then we would Eat it all together But you won't sit down And I feel different And I feel Dive into the water Dry in the sun And I feel, I feel I'd like to fly Over the lake Touch the water With my wings Sometimes I would fly Higher and higher But there's just to much To understand
7.
Smell after Rain Everytime I try to hide I feel the clouds roll down on my skin The smell of rain completes my pain I try to forget Echoes of time in my head Much have I seen much am I blind And still this dream to say goodbye Cause we don't need to say goodbye Take my hand hold my body We don't need to say goodbye

Interlude 01:08

True Tears 04:05
True Tears Do you believe in what you see Do you believe that nothing is real Adjusting water Emotionaly blinded by Fysically addicted Controling fire As long as I will have your tears to remind me Your broken wings to remind me Remind me of the truth No matter what I do No matter what I say The backdoor is open And only I can pray That my feet will touch the ground Your lips in my neck Your stories in my brain Is this going anywhere As long as I will have your tears to remind me Your broken wings to remind me Remind me of the truth And I can grow old When the time is moving And the eyes in his head Release the tears from the sorrow
10.
He and She 03:49
He and She She kisses him He holds her tight It's almost night He 's not ganna hurt her He takes her hand She makes a sight She feels that this is real Why not awake and reach the other side Why not dive and see what happens She undresses him The room is bright Turn off the light He's not ganna hurt her Man are born to love And not to prepare it She feels that this is real Why not awake and reach the other side Why not dive and see what happens She feels sorry cause she loves him She feels sorry cause she gave herself to him She was that naive And now she can't sleep
