Somebody

I heard from a guy who told somebody

Bout the deserts dry

And the forests muddy

 

But they forgot to tell bout the rainy skies

They forgot to tell bout the trees so high

They forgot to tell bout the name the wind gave itself

They forgot to tell bout the tiger like nobody else

 

I heard from a guy who told somebody 

Bout the deserts dry

And the forests muddy

 

But they forgot to tell bout the dunes of sand

They forgot to tell bout waves so grand

They forgot to tell bout the sights that stayed his hand

They forgot to tell bout the singing like a band

 

I heard from a guy who told somebody

Bout the deserts dry 

and the forests muddy

 

I told them they were right ‘bout so many things

But I told them they were wrong ‘bout the real kings and queens

  • Ever After

    last night my love I wished upon a star
    tonight my dear it finally came true
    they say all's faire in love and war
    but glowing love like this I cannot rue
    my love we're living in a fairytale
    my wish upon a star is standing here

  • lonely days

    Once upon a lonely time 

    The moon fell in love with the sun 

    And so you see they were lovers 

    Once when they were young 

     

  • I Fell for a Star

    In the dark of the night when the winds start to call 

    and the leaves in the trees shake and tremble and fall 

    there is something that moves like a shadowing thrall
