JOURNEY TO NOWHERE
You put your life inside a small bag
And head off down the road
He who travels light travels happy
‘Least that’s what you’ve been told
Without knowing where you’re headed
You wander towards your goal
Only fear of choosing the wrong path
Forever haunts your soul
The people you meet they guide you
But your own path leads the way
You know it won’t be easy
But still you musn’t stray
Time seems to go by slowly
Your life disappears at speed
You look deeper within yourself
That’s your only need
Then the realisation
That the journey never ends
And this life that you’ve been given
Is all you have to spend
So you savour every moment
And believe in who you are
So as you near your destination
You’ve already travelled far
WHERE HAVE ALL THE GIRLS GONE?
She was really pretty
With eyes that pierced my heart
Her sweet smile occupied my thoughts for days
And that soft voice may intrigue me for years
But she wears a jilbab on her head
And she lives on an island far away from home
And as if that weren’t enough
I’ve got a beard
She wasn’t that good looking
She was too shy to talk
So we never met, I guess I’ll never know her
And I’ll never know for sure what could have been
And she wears a cross around her neck
And she lives on an island far away from home
And as if that weren’t enough
I’ve got a beard
She wasn’t that religious
She believed only in herself
I searched the streets but never found her
I don’t even know if she exists
And she wears a flower in her hair
And she lives on an island far away from home
And as if that weren’t enough
I’ve got a beard
I was a little afraid
I didn’t know what to say
I just smiled, but got no answer
She’s still walking away
And I still wear doubts within my mind
And I’m still on an island far away from home
And as if that weren’t enough
The beard is gone
UNTITLED
I don’t know other people
I only know me
Sometimes I get a bit lonely
Sometimes I feel a little sad
But there’s always tomorrow
And there’s always another place
And there’s always another girl
So think of the present
And know what you’ve got
Cause the ocean doesn’t know when the sun sets
Has never seen a crowd
Her eyes are always closed
But she’s happy
UNTITLED
If I should die
Without a chance of saying goodbye
Don’t shed a tear for me
You were there for me
Though I was never rich
Though I was never famous
I began to understand
What peace is
Just know that I’ve loved and lived
I gave all I wanted to give
And my journey is neverending
My time will go on
UNTITLED (not really a song, just a description of a tattoo that I don’t have yet)
Although life has a beginning and an end,
We never die.
We begin and come full circle,
Always in the presence of the ocean… or the mountains.
The sun gives us life,
And keeps everything in balance,
So that we may live in harmony with ourselves, and with each other.
