Evergreen So now you’re straight You are the latest millionaire What do you care What do you care Congratulations On your new adventure We are happy for you Happy for you But down in the valley Where everything is evergreen Everybody is somebody Cause that’s who we are And that’s how we feel You are building your house As high in the sky As your feet can take you Your feet can take you But you know How to find your way home If it didn’t work out Didn’t work out Down in the valley Where everything is evergreen Everybody is somebody Cause that’s who we are And that’s how we feel Ooh the evergreen Ooh the evergreen Down in the valley Where everything is evergreen Everybody is somebody Cause that’s who we are And that’s how we feel

Traveling 03:35

Traveling High-rise kind of getting me dizzy There’s no room for the sun to enter I feel like like I‘m missing out of something And again you make me wonder You’re an old river town Complete with dragon walls You’re my sunny seaside I got the bug for For traveling, traveling in your mind I wanna watch you move in slow motion I’d like to fast forward give it a try Wake up each day with a new vision Never look back Oh no no no High-speed train leaving like a rocket Taking flight with the whole world onboard 6 am you’re already an oven I can’t help wishing for cold water With a thousand million thoughts Reaching out to a million gates I can’t put my life on hold I gotta meet my fate Cause I like Traveling, traveling in your mind I wanna watch you move in slow motion I want to fast forward give it a try Wake up each day with a new vision Never look back You smoke your cigars and your weed and I am Travelling in your mind and breathing Through your clouds Traveling, Watch you move Fast forward give it a try Wake up each day with a new vision Never ever look back Traveling, Watch you move Fast forward give it a try Wake up each day with a new vision Never look back No no Never look back

Summer Love 03:48

Summer Love I was walking in the sand By the water in the Caribbean He was rugged and handsome And I had time on my hands He was just my kind of guy His eyes I will remember well I left my troubles behind No longer needed them In the heat of a summer love When your inner sun is strong You can heal on a summer love And our hearts grew intertwined Everyday a little more I would go meet my sweet Wet my feet by the shore With the sun over your head Beating out of control How long can you resist the call In the heat of a summer love When your inner sun is strong You can heal on a summer love We don't know how long And how much rain will fall Don't jump to conclusions Could be just seasonal In the heat of a summer day Inner sun is strong Heal on a summer love Summer love, summer love, Summer love, Summer love, summer love Summer love Feed off the energy Heal on a summer love I love walking in the sand By the water Anywhere in the world

Read My Mind There are things I keep inside That I don't want to talk about You can't see them on my face You got to look deeper than that Ooh I've been waiting You're taking your slow time Ooh don't be lazy Come on read my mind Come on read my mind Come on read my mind When you get close to the heat You will have no other choice But to get off your feet And to walk till you get lost Ooh I've been waiting You're taking your slow time Ooh don't be lazy Come on read my mind Come on read my mind Come on read my mind Outspoken To the sea The river runs Ooh I've been waiting You're taking your slow time Ooh don't be lazy Come on read my mind Come on read my mind Read my mind There are things I keep inside That I don't want to talk about You can't see them on my face You got to look deeper than that Baby

2 Sides Do you care how I feel When you go around Telling all these things You're wrecking my world Do you know what it's like When you feel this cold Standing with your back Against the wall See what you want to see I didn't lead you on Let me feel as I want to feel Or may you be gone Cause there are 2 sides Baby 2 sides Yes there are 2 sides Baby 2 sides to a story And as I walked away With your final words Still ringing in my head I began my sentence As written in your eyes There won't be compassion And here I will lie In this destruction Say what you wanna to say It really don't matter Play as you wanna to play The game is over Cause there are 2 sides Baby 2 sides Yes there are 2 sides Baby 2 sides to a story So let me go So let me go Won't you won't you The game is over There are 2 sides Baby 2 sides Yes there are 2 sides Baby 2 sides to a story

This Kind of Feeling 04:15

This Kind of Feeling Let’s turn the page And make a drastic change Let’s learn to forgive Isn’t what we’re here for Let’s look within Where it begins and it ends And then may be We’ll be forgiven I will make sure I am on that rain tonight And everything will be alright This kind of feeling Has got ahold of me Let’s bring together The mother and the child Cause everyday it’s her I long to see Oh she’s all love, all love, all love And when we dance In the lavender fields There will be laughter And there will be wine As we sing our songs And tell our stories And there will be No more wasted time As the moonlight shines its last shade of red And whispers gently in my head This kind of feeling Has got ahold of me Let’s bring together The mother and the child Cause everyday it’s her I long to see Oh she’s all love, all love, all love This kind of feeling Has got ahold of me Let’s bring together The mother and the child Cause everyday it’s her I long to see Oh she’s all love, all love, all love

A Vivid Dream 04:31

A Vivid Dream I had a vivid dream I was in the water I heard the phone ring Someone picked up I remember the ceiling light I sank to the bottom Closed my baby’s eyes Heard an angelic voice Telling me I was spared earthly pain Sometimes you feel That all you need Is destiny to work a miracle And bring you back to life I begged for another chance Just before closing time Said I would make a difference If someone would only pull me out Never have I seen Something more beautiful Than the eyes that laid on me And never have I been held so close Sometimes you feel That all you need Is destiny to work a miracle And bring you back to life I would take on many challenges I would surely catch you if you fell All that i have I would give And I would never complain Sometimes you feel That all you need Is destiny to work a miracle And bring you back to life Sometimes you feel That all you need Is destiny to work a miracle And bring you back to life I had a vivid dream

Lady Moon Lady moon you and I are on the same boat I am a night owl just like you When the morning comes I have to go There is nothing else for me to do What must happen will happen I will strech my body I don’t care even Even if it kills me Lady moon My favorite thing Lady moon You are my heroine Lady moon you are right I should take my time There is pain in rushing there is no gain Who knows what awaits us on the other side Is that why you’re hiding behind a tree Outside the box It is more comfortable You can easily touch Inside of your soul Lady moon My favorite thing Lady moon You are my heroine We're the pair in despair We're the pair in repair Lady moon, lady moon You and I are on the same page Here I am once again following you I will follow you Even if it kills me Even if it kills me Even if it kills me

The Return 04:34
lyrics

The Return They came down here in search for gold To heal their skiy they needed grace They saw the coast of Africa unfold And created the human race They named the stars, gave us the zodiac And everything else that we’ve got Mathematics and more aphrodisiacs Elixir of youth we never saw a drop Will they return Are they among us Are you one of them Can they lead us Are we condemned Can they save us Can we trust them Will they return? They married the daughters of men Got entangled in their web Kings and queens raising their hands People bowing their heads When the earth becomes less twisted We will not yet be too old All we know will have a different meaning Coast of Africa will still shine as gold Will they return Are they among us Are you one of them Can they lead us Are we condemned Can they save us Can we trust them Will they return? Just like they say The world wasn’t made in one day But they were laying bricks every hour Will they return Are they among us Are you one of them Can they lead us Are we condemned Can they save us Can we trust them Will they return

The Healer 04:12

The Healer It came and went Just like a shooting star I put my two cents in it It is not here anymore I played this game One too many times Ignored the warnings And I let my guard down Let us see the healer Get rid of the disease Gather the pieces and breathe Let’s turn around Never get down that road And go crazy all over again Healing, healing, healing You learn a lot But what is it really for If you are not Gonna give it another chance Now you stay home Embrace your solitude What has gone wrong This is not you Let us see the healer Get rid of the disease Gather the pieces and breathe Let’s turn around Never get down that road And go crazy all over again Healing, healing, healing Everything can break in an instant Don’t count on them to keep you And when it shatters you The moment seems unreal Gather the pieces and breathe Let’s turn around Never get down that road And go crazy all over again Oh healing We need healing We need healing Please healing Let us see the healer That's all we need Healing ooh...
