Someone cares Somewhere - someone cares Somewhere – someone hears me Someone feels me, when I think I am alone Someone cares. Somewhere, someone feels with When the night is long and cold Some day I’ll see you Till then, your proof is this song Till then, your proof is this song.

Holy days 02:16
Holy Days You asked how my holidays were I replied that I forgot already Then I remembered a restaurant For the rest There was nothing to tell. Could I tell you that I thought of you And searched for you At every corner? It is a holiday when I meet you It is a holy day when we talk It is a holiday when they call it one But I need the days we talk. Holidays for the lonely people Are hard times And I long for the heart time I spent with you. I asked how your holidays were You mentioned only the daily drag And did you think of me And look for me wherever you went, I couldn’t ask.

No One Touches the Way That You Do (Dedicated to Copenhagen Airport security checks staff) I’ve been touched by my mother, a doctor, a friend I’ve been touched by the wind and the rain I’ve been touched by the crowd, by the angels, I guess, By a picture, a movie, a song I’ve been touched by butterflies on my both hands But no one, no one, Touches the way that you do But no one, no one, Touches the way that you do No one touches the way that you do No one touches.
4.
Baci e abbracci (Kisses and hugs) May someone that is right for you Take you soon in his arms And may the arms of the clock Stop to look And smile And rejoice As you two Reunite. Your prayers are welcome That this would happen In my life too. P.S.: I will keep you informed As the magic unfolds!
5.
The Kiss 01:35
The Kiss When the sweet Mother, Mother earth, Carries me in her Arms, When father sky Lowers his face To meet my cells, So soft the touch, The kiss inside I witness, The kiss I AM. When in the Gentle arms of Mother earth I lay, When sweet caress Of air is nearing, The kiss, Their kiss, I feel, I am, In my heart. I am their meeting I am their playground I am the kissing pair, In a film which is in Filming. Kissing in a sunny park Creations of my mind The kiss I Am.
6.
Love will overcome all obstacles It’s earth that whispers ‘No instant to waste’, Or those who passed to the world of light. Earth is saying:”Nonsense!” In a huge balloon rising. The radio plays: “Baby, you’re my Favorite waste of time”. The holidays are gone. You may cry freely now “It’s my party & I’ll cry If I want to. You would cry too, if it Happened to you”. No instant to waste. No instant to waste. No instant to waste.
7.
The sun 03:22
The Sun (For the memory of Tilly Kuhn) The sun Shines on all With empathy or Those who Learn. The sun shines With grace Also on those who Did things they regret And those who Learn. The clouds before the Sun now make The pattern of Yin and Yang. And, yes, you Can order now Your favorite Clouds design. The wind caresses Those who walk with Their children and Those who walk Alone. Grateful, I am grateful, This is the gate to gold. Grateful, I am grateful, In the hands of lovers I walk In sun-glasses of people I joke. With my bag full of Brochures about life I know my life is with you. The whole scene gets Transformed by Little leaves Electric poem trees. The sun Is stiekem (in Dutch: secretly) In love With the moon Yes, she read in A book he Has no light Of his own Still she shines And loves Him alone. The sun, My highest chef, Passes in a belly Of a pregnant lady. Giant urban Easter egg impregnates Antwerp city. Little leaves So green like Emeralds, so Precious as diamonds, Sing songs of joy. Sing songs of love. With my bag full of Brochures about life I know my life is with you. The sun shines on all With empathy Or those who learn.

Soul moments 00:47
Soul moments Even though I have no Song I Wrote for You, When I look Into your eyes, Life sings through I love you.
9.
For Amy 02:48
For Amy I never wanted that you will have so much pain. Oh, my legs are shivering when I hear about your pain. Blessed be thy memory May your soul be bound in the bunch of the living. I love you, sister, How on earth did you step into this hell of pain. I love you, mother, How on earth did you get involved with all that mess. Is there something like Being too beautiful? No, there ain’t. There is only the price, for not expressing pain which, by time, hurts so much. There is only the price for not expressing fear which, at times, leaves us crushed. Blessed be thy memory May your soul be bound in the bunch of the living.

Beyond time 01:17
11.
All is one 00:37
All is one In reality all is one. In my thoughts it was separated. My wanting only caused you and I pain.
12.
A day of solar eclipse I have in me, In my cells and atoms only, Enough energy to light The whole of New York, For three months, But I sit in the dark. I need to see your eyes I need to hear your voice I need to know if I’ll Ever be yours. In this life, In my life Or I ask myself What it’s all for Or about. Hear ‘Bridge over troubled water’ And do my best not to cry There are others around They might also miss someone. Science says I can light up The whole state of New York for three months And I sit in the dark And I sit in the dark.
13.
Surrender 01:44
Surrender To you I surrender, Love, in love, with love, to love. (To you) My passion, My devotion. You make me shy, And I’m not, You make me quiet, And I’m not. You I adore. My big love, Uncommon Love, My kind and uncommon Love.
