Twenty Wild Flowers
I started as two
just to be one again
Now I´m starting on three
a waltz no wedding plan.
´Cause still I´ve got four
more chords I wanna play
So where is my bouquet of twenty wild flowers
to lead me my way
through sun clouds and rain
I danced till midnight in order
to do it well
I never liked moving
but I moved anyway
So please let me rest
from the dance, being the best.
And lead me my way
to the land I will stay
Where wild flowers grow
that I pick every day
So where is my bouquet of twenty wild flowers
to lead me my way
through sun clouds and rain
I danced till midnight in order
to do it well
I never liked moving
but I moved anyway

Break up anniverary
I wonder how we made it through this mess
I wonder how this odd year could pass without me noticing
Never had imagined a live without you
But it seems to work after the time we went through
They ask me how we could break: it was a matter of time
It was a mistake I made, it was all planned in my mind
I remember these strange days far from home without you
I remember how these days passed far to slow these grey days
Everything has changed including you and me
But we’re getting closer to who we want to be
They ask me how we could break: it was a matter of time
It was a mistake I made, it was all planned in my mind

Tree with no leaves
Now play, play your last song,
under the tree, that had no leaves
when we first met
Now leave, leave your last love
under the tree, that had no leaves
and is now so hopeless green
You are like a kite, you needed strings, to fly off
but you were not flying, far enough, so I cut them off
Now pick, pick your new life,
of white flowers so sad,
I didn´t know, whre they grow
Now grow, grow old and listen
I tell you where they grow
it´s far away from my sorrow
You are like a kite, you needed strings, to fly off
but you were not flying, far enough, so I cut them off

Splitting
I remember what I did, it’s what she did, when she was young.
All the memories that I have are not lost they just become hers.
All the things that go wrong
they are no longer part of me.
All the things that they’ve done
cannot hurt me.
They expect us not to change for a lifetime we should stay the same.
But now I’ll have to split she’s the part that I will have to quit.
All the things that go wrong
they are no longer part of me.
All the things that they’ve done
cannot hurt me.

November
Don´t fall asleep on a leaveless november
You may not wake up and miss december
There´s nothing good. There´s nothing good. There´s nothing good.
About november.
Hey november if you´d be a man
I´ll point out my knife to scare you off
But you scare me more with even no weapon
But you scare me more with even no weapon
There´s nothing good. There´s nothing good. There´s nothing good.
About november.
Nobody knows where´s the snow in november
Why does it always wait till december
And nobody knows why I am so sad
yeah nobaody knows why I am so sad
And that´s the sadest of all

OH MIDDLE LOVE - OML
Oh middle love
you were supposed to
be so much more
then what we left behind
Oh middle love
it was so hard to
leave you behind
but then it was just fine.
Oh middle love
I didn´t try to be naive
Oh middle love I was.
Oh middle love
where will you go to
this Saturday night?
just ask to avoid the fight
Oh middle love
I don´t wanna meet you
While I am trying
to feel that I am alive
Oh middle love..
Oh middle love
I didn´t last to
grow old by your side
like we said we would
Oh middle love
I gave a promise
that I couldn´t keep
we needed to be free
Oh middle love..
Oh middle love
I hear a joke which
I wanna tell
to you so we could laugh
Oh middle love
but then I realize
no joke on earth
can stop us from being hurt
Oh middle love..
Oh middle love
you didn´t last to
spend our life
with me in love at home
Oh middle love
do you still dream to
hold me tight
I do sometimes at night
Oh middle love..

Processing
You say you need time. I know what you do
You keep up the distance. Between me and you
All of my friends. They see you right through.
But I´m feeling lonely. That´s why I need you
All the thoughts that I spent on you
Are to keep them away from where they should be
All the thoughts that I spend on you
mean nothing but keep me (from) processing.
You say you´re a leave that’s blown away
You change your mind from day to day
You say you want more. I think that´s okay.
You chase your dreams. And I go my way.
All the thoughts that I spent on you
Are to keep them away from where they should be
All the thoughts that I spend on you
mean nothing but keep me from processing.
They should keep me away from you.
They know where we´re going (x3)

These December Days
You call me this morning to tell me
the sky had changed and now it seems
that you could see
further then you used to see.
I answer your call when I walk out the door
I look up the sky and agree
The sky is like you say
so much wider today.
The sky is wider than it used to be
these December days.
The wind is cold and it blows
far too heavily.
The moment I could see the world clear
was when I was walking home.
The wind blows everything away that we see
it also blew the sky free.
O blowers daughter finally we meet
I waited for you so long.
Take me away
And blow my struggled mind free.

MOON LULLABY
you you you you
came right from the moon
you walked on the sun
and wasn´t it fun
to be
where it all begun
you you you you
you have nothing to say
but I know on your way
you´ve seen flowers in may
and they
they made you stay
you you you you
you are my little child
a bound of roses grown wild
you´re a plant now to grow
way to fast
yet too slow
you you you you
you´ll find all you need
but nothing worth it to keep
you´rs only travelling through time
I regret
that you´re not mine
