lyrics

Don’t wake the kid up
Won’t make a fuss
I promise
It’ll be silent this time
Like a lonely ride
Or a bug trying to hide
The door in between
Nowhere else to be
Than the darkness out there
Of an endless night
No-one’s out tonight
Just clouds and moonlight

And I know around the next bend
I’ll be lonesome again

I could draw your face right now
The dots, the lips, the cuts
For no-one else to see but me
And the beauty…
Like a plane-scratched sky
Or stains of sunlight
The breeze it kind of stirs
The trees they kind of hurt
On a rooftop a row of birds
Wait silently
As if they all agreed
There’s a better place to be

They already see that around the next bend
I’ll be lonesome again

about

a Singer of Songs Barcelona

I sing songs in the bathroom. In packed and empty venues. In gardens, sheds and churches. Once in a weird Finnish gym and also in the oldest house in Switzerland. On a boat and in a bus and in a horse farm. In noisy Italian bars and spookily silent Belgian rooms. On my own and with people.
I sing songs and if you want, you can listen.
