I’m always wanting more
Anything I haven’t got
Everything I want it all
I just can’t stop
Planning all my days away
Never find new ways to stay
Never feel enough today
Tomorrow must be more
More drink, more dreams
More bed, more drugs
More lust, more lies
More hate, more love
More fear, more fun
More pain, more flesh
More stars, more smiles
More fame, more sex
However hard I want
I know deep down inside
I’ll never really get
More hope or any more time
Any more time
Any more time
Any more time
I want the sky to fall in
I want lightning and thunder
I want fire instead of rain
I want the world to make me wonder
Want to walk on water
Take a trip to the moon
Oh, give me all this
And give me it soon
More drink, more dreams, more drugs
More lust, more lies, more love
However hard I want
I know deep down inside
I’ll never really get
More hope or any more time
Sunsets – September 2021
See the thorn twist in your side
I’ll wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails, she makes me wait
And I wait without you
With or without you
You give it all but I want more
And I’m waiting for you
With or without you, ah, ah
I can’t live
With or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My body bruised, she got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose
Christmas – May 2021
When you’re still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all
Up above candles on air flicker, oh they flicker and they float
And I’m up here holding on to all those chandeliers of hope
Like some drunken Elvis singing, I go singing out of tune
Saying how I always loved you darling and I always will
When you’re still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all
Still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
Down where the sea and city meet
May all your troubles soon be gone
Oh Christmas lights keep shining on
Those Christmas lights
Light up the street
Maybe they’ll bring her back to me
Then all my troubles will be gone
Oh Christmas lights keep shining on
Oh Christmas lights
Light up the street
Light up the fireworks in me
May all your troubles soon be gone
Those Christmas lights keep shining on
Faith – March 2021
Mother, mother, tell your children
That their time has just begun
I have suffered for my anger
There are wars that can’t be won
Father, father, please believe me
I am laying down my guns
I am broken like an arrow
Forgive me
Forgive your wayward son
Everybody needs somebody to love
(mother, mother)
Everybody needs somebody to hate
(please believe me)
Everybody’s bitching
‘Cause they can’t get enough
And it’s hard to hold on
When there’s no one to lean on
Faith: you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Lord, we’ve gotta keep the faith
Faith: don’t you let your love turn to hate
Now we’ve gotta keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we’ve gotta keep the faith
Tell me baby when I hurt you
Do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me all’s forgiven
Just hide behind your pride
Everybody needs somebody to love
(mother, father)
Everybody needs somebody to hate
(please don’t leave me)
Everybody’s bleeding
‘Cause the times are tough
Well it’s hard to be strong
When there’s no one to dream on
Faith: you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Lord we’ve gotta keep the faith
Faith!
Don’t you know it’s never too late
Right now we’ve gotta keep the faith
Faith: don’t you let your love turn to hate
Lord we’ve gotta keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Oh, we’ve gotta keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we’ve gotta keep the faith
I’ve been walking in the footsteps
Of society’s lies
I don’t like what I see no more
Sometimes I wish I was blind
Sometimes I wait forever
To stand out in the rain
So no one sees me cryin’
Trying to wash away this pain
Mother father
(Everybody needs somebody to love)
There’s things I’ve done I can’t erase
(Everybody needs somebody to hate)
Every night we fall from grace
(Everybody’s bitching ’cause they can’t get enough)
It’s hard with the world in your face
(Everybody bleeds)
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on
(Everybody, keep the pain)
Faith: you know you’re gonna live through the rain
Lord you’ve gotta keep the faith
Faith: don’t you let your love turn to hate
Right now we’ve gotta keep the faith
Perfect – December 2020
There is something that I see
In the way you look at me
There’s a smile, there’s a truth
In your eyes
But in an unexpected way
On this unexpected day
Could it mean this is where I belong
It is you I have loved all along
It’s no more a mystery, it is finally clear to me
You’re the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved all along
There were times I ran to hide
Afraid to show the other side
Alone in the night without you
But I know just who you are
And I know you hold my heart
Finally this is where I belong
And it is you I have loved all along
It’s no more a mystery, it is finally clear to me
You’re the home my heart searched for so long
It is you I have loved all along
Over and over I’m filled with emotion
Your love rushes through my veins
And I am filled with the sweetest devotion
As I look into your perfect face
It’s no more a mystery, it is finally clear to me
You’re the home my heart searched for so long
It is you I have loved
It is you I have loved
It is you I have loved all along
Serenity – May 2020
Sir, we have a green light.
Inspection’s positive and we’re clear for up-thrust.
Think she’ll hold together?
She’s tore up plenty. But she’ll fly true.
Make sure everything’s secure.
Could be bumpy.
Always is.
Taking her out…should be about a day’s ride
to get you back to your girls.
Right.
Ready to get off this heap, back to civilized life?
I, uh…I don’t know.
Good answer.
So, you gonna ride shotgun with me, help me fly?
That’s the plan.
Think you can work out…
Okay.Clearly some aptitude for the…
It ain’t all buttons and charts, little albatross.
You know what the first rule of flying is?
Well, I suppose you do, since you already know what I’m about to say.
I do. But I like to hear you say it.
Love.
You can learn all the math in the ‘verse…
but you take a boat in
the air that you don’t love…
she’ll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the worlds.
Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down…
tells you she’s hurting before she keels.
Makes her a home.
Storm’s getting worse.
We’ll pass through it soon enough.
Ning Jing…
Beautiful Life – May 2020
I was lost, but you found me
Hiding in the shadows from my destiny
And you saw things that no one else could see
You saved me when I was my worst enemy
It feels so good to be alive
Just you and me tonight
Don’t wake me up from this high
What a beautiful life
I heard your heart call mine
And then all the stars aligned
Don’t wake me up from this high
What a beautiful life
Spread through me like a wild flame
I feel it in my veins
I’ll never ever be the same
I’ll never be the same
Cheers to the thing money can’t buy
Can’t buy what I feel inside
This thing, I can’t deny
Our pretty little paradise
It feels so good to be alive
Just you and me tonight
Don’t wake me up from this high
What a beautiful life
I heard your heart call mine
And then all the stars aligned
Don’t wake me up from this high
What a beautiful life
Just in cases – March 2020
Look, we’re not actually flying, but…
You can’t come through
without a boarding pass.
Not even to let the boy say good-bye
to the love of his life?
No.
Uh, I’m sorry, Sam.
Boarding pass, sir?
Now, just a moment.
I know I’ve got it here somewhere.
Would you mind hanging on to that?
Unless…
What? What?
Do you want to make
a run for it?
Hold on to that as well.
Do you think I should?
Yeah.
Okay.
Yes!
No, I must have left them
where I was having a cup of coffee.
I’m sorry.
Joanna.
Sam?
– I thought you didn’t know my name.
– Of course I do.
Oh Jesus.
I’ve gotta run.
Boa noite, Aurelia.
Boa noite, Jamie.
Thank you.
That will be nice.
“Yes” is being my answer.
Easy question.
Bravo!
You learned English?
Just in cases.
I Still Fly – September 2019
There’s a time
In your life
When the world
Is on your side
You might not feel it
You might not see it
But it surrounds you like a light
Makes you stronger for the fight
Never letting go
Gotta learn to grow
Watch me as I touch the sky
Still I fly
Now I know it’s what I gotta do
Find a dream that’s new
Give it all I got this time
Still I fly
Still I fly
Feel the wind
All around
All the courage
To be found
Who knows what’s out there
I know I’ll get there
Oh ooh All that you deserve
I know I’m not the only one that’s
Never letting go
Gotta learn to grow
Watch me as I touch the sky
Still I fly
Now I know it’s what I gotta do
Find a dream that’s new
Give it all I got this time
Still I fly
Still I fly
Bring it in
I’m gonna shine
It’s my moment
Gotta live it
Live it right
I’m flyin’, flyin’ so strong
I’m movin’
I’m movin’
I’m movin’ on
Never letting go
Gotta learn to grow
Watch me as I touch the sky
Still I fly
Now I know it’s what I gotta do
Find a dream that’s new
Give it all I got this time
Still I fly
Still I fly
The World – July 2019
I got a story it’s almost finished
all i need is someone to tell it too
maybe, that’s you.
our time is borrowed and spent to freely
every minute i have needs to be made up
but how?
i’m looking for a nice way to say
“i’m out.”
i want out.
i fall asleep with my friends around me
only place i know, i feel safe
i’m gonna call this home
the open road is still miles away
Hey nothing serious
we still have our fun
oh we had it once
Windows open and close
that’s just how it goes
don’t it feel like sunshine after all
the world we love forever, gone
we’re only just as happy
as everyone else seems to think we are
i’m in love with the ordinary
i need a simple space
and rest my head
everything gets clear
well i’m a little ashamed for asking
but just a little helps
it gets me straight again
helps me get over it (over it)
it might seem like a dream
but it’s real to me
don’t it feel like sunshine after all
the world we love forever, gone
we’re only just as happy
as everyone else seems to think we are
you should see the canals are freezing
you should see me high
you should just be here
be with me here
it doesn’t seem there’s hope for me
i let you down
but i won’t give in now
not for any amount
don’t it feel like sunshine after all
the world we love forever, gone
we’re only just as happy
as everyone else seems to think we are
