Ackord: C Am Dm G (capo 2:a bandet)

Have you ever walked in burning sand
did you ever have a favourite band
with a song that told the history
it mixed the beauty with your agony

Have you ever had a mom and dad
that told you stories just to make you glad
you took the bus and had a fight in school
after that you followed every rule

Have you ever stayed in bed all day
to count the seconds that you painted grey
you took your money and you quit your job
despite your mother thought you were a slob

Have you ever seen the tears in her eyes
did you hold her close and told her lies
you settled down in the country side
but left the windows open wide

Have you ever been to Amsterdam
to take a walk in the cloudy land
started crying in a world of noise
cause you regretted every single choice

Have you ever felt your fingers bleed
while your guitar forgot a mouth to feed
you went to church and set your house on fire
cause your soul had way to much desire

Have you ever lost your way back home
you were alive but then you turned to stone
now you had time to understand it all
you saw the stars and heard the ocean call

Have you ever felt a hand so warm
it helped you through the most frightening storm
you wrote a song that told a history
and mixed the beauty with your agony

Det här är en låt jag nyss skrev till L, bara för att hon är så fantastisk och förtjänar att få veta hur jag känner just nu. Tycker den blev bra. En hederlig poplåt helt enkelt, rakt på utan snirklingar, utan skyddande hölje. Ikväll ska jag spela den för henne. Hoppas hon tycker om den. När jag fattar mod och har mer tid spelar jag in den och lägger upp den här.

J’ai peur (tu gardes mes étoiles de tomber)

Capo 2

D       A
I am sorry
Em                             G              A                D
I forgot how I’m supposed to show my love
to somebody
the last time it caused my heart beatings

I am starting
to realize that you’re something different
you’re departing
G                                 A                              D       n.c.
but I have to say some things before you leave

D                                   A
You can keep my stars from falling
Hm                               G                           D
You can break my ice and set me free
You can set my soul on fire
You can take the fear away from me

D                 A
But I am older now
G                                      A                              D
I know that things like this are hard to predict
A
But let me hold you now
G                        A                         D
and keep reality far away from me

Don’t you worry
That I start to make any stupid demands from you
I won’t hurry
Because we have all the time in the world if we want

If you continue
to look at me like that I have to turn away
A power within you
is so shining bright it hurt’s my eyes, do you know?

Refr. again

You can make me walk on rainbows
You can dance my loneliness to sleep
You can make my demons silent
You can let me feel alive again

Aaa-aah-aaah-aaah
Aaa-aah-aaah-aaah
Aaa-aah-aaah-aaah
Aaa-aah-aaah-aaah
