Everyday 03:14
Thursday night it‘s Sultans down at Queens Step out on the stage and learn to live your dreams Ain‘t pouring down on us but we flood the streets around And the music bars they're letting out the jazzy sound Five at Friday evening blends with night See you Monday “ha det bra“, weekend comes all right Shys and timids are crazy for once Pubs bars churches libraries full of dance Mind full of music and day full of work Now it‘s time to sleep faster than you've ever slept before Demand a dance from fate I believe it can't just happen Unless it‘s half past never It‘s never too late It‘s a day that you choose to play Down here we named it “Everyday“ Further south by the lively port Saturday's full of crowded streets, low beats on a boat To icy water dare backflip my friend Stand half an hour queue to bars, even in the rain Morning comes, hum to Joker's tune Sunday doesn‘t even start till the afternoon Next day's Monday and that‘s the only flaw Never mind and dance with crowd down in Blå Mind full of music and day full of work Now it‘s time to sleep faster than you've ever slept before Demand a dance from fate I believe it can't just happen Unless it‘s half past never It‘s never too late It‘s a day that you choose to play Down here we've named such day “Everyday“

By the banks of the river cast west Sticks in the water you and me Taken by the flow, we never rest Down in the river and over the weir Through the lock and into the sea The big wide sea you and me Faster harder further we must race When do we pause or dive in deep While chasing all the things we chase Hills that we climb seem way too steep You and me we're racing to the sea The big wide sea you and me Look, look, look Watch and learn from the black winged rook Down to the sea Sticks in the water, is it us You and me, you and me, you and me Still working and awaiting big break One and a thousand books unread To give is not easy so we take Keep on spinning on the infinite thread Can we linger you and me Before we reach the big wide sea For moon sun and stars so high For fish that swim the opposite way To stand and stare and wonder why And love the ones who long to stay To see the big wide sea Come soon for you and me Look, look, look Watch and learn from the black winged rook Down to the sea Sticks in the water, is it us You and me, you and me, you and me Sky lark’s calling Singing songs of why and how You can’t stop the river my friend from flowing Never again will be now

Fargo is young and strong In his early twenties Keeping guard all along, protecting his ladies Always staying vigilant not falling behind For intruders he has no remorse With the only one that he won't mind Is the sheep who thinks she's a horse Pelgrim dreams of getting close Ponders his chances It's the game of the pony and the horse, their courage and stances He makes a move forward and gets a response Fargo starts in his way No need to weigh the pros and cons Pelgrim retreats, well, maybe another day They never say maybe Nothing is unclear There's no fear between them There's no fear All of the problems can be made up with a fight And nothing is gray Just black or white Late summer sun starts to set over horizon Piece is the king in their world and will be for many years on Fargo looks Pelgrim straight into the eyes No despise just a game of will And as we watch them under evening sky We feel forever they will stand there still, they will stand there still They never say maybe Nothing is unclear There's no fear between them There's no fear All of the problems can be made up with a fight And nothing is gray Just black or white

Hey Dad 04:33
Hey Dad, when I think of you I think of the wisdom of a man who can teach the world in how things should be With the deep sense to know what is right and what is wrong And I’d love to say you’ve passed it on to me Hey Dad, when I think of you I think of a rock that's always been in my life and one that I could lean on Since the time I’ve been just a kid running round the block Till and beyond being your grown up son You raised me to the man I am today And gave me all you could, and even more than that That leaves me with one thing I want to say Thanks for everything, I would like to thank you Dad Hey Dad, when I think of you I think of a friend that’d be there any time for me and hear me out in need Trying to help and seek to understand And even if you don't it still means the world to me You raised me to the man I am today And gave me all you could, and even more than that That leaves me with one thing I want to say Thanks for everything, I would like to thank you Dad Hard shell on the outside hides a kind stone within Nobody is really like you’d think them to be But from what I’ve seen and from the time I’ve known you I’m glad that I’ve been learning from you

Guitars and the amp on my back as I’m heading down Setting it all up at The Hayes, while the sun peeks into town Half for good the rest for fun, so tip me if you can afford it And all that’s part of how I‘ll remember Cardiff Green Shit and the rock and roll bands at the Womanby street Miguel’s guitar round the corner is a midnight busking treat And Saint Mary please stand by the crazy folks going for the party And all that’s part of how I’ll remember Cardiff Windshield gets the beating by the rain And I get the feeling again There’s a dragon somewhere up in the sky You and I, we were not meant to be But I stayed and throughout the years you be came Part of me, and I’m part of you, And now, that I’m moving on for real It might seem like I’m upping the game But I feel that way only partly For over the years I came to see my home in Cardiff Weekend sunrise in the Bay and a fresh ground coffee on the table Cineworld movies to be followed by ciders at The Stable And the platform 5 at the station has only ghost trains departing And all that’s part of how I’ll remember Cardiff And the speakers at the Quaker’s clap their hands Later Chapel, grab a couple drinks with your friends There just must be a dragon up in the sky You and I, we were not meant to be But I stayed and throughout the years you be came Part of me, and I’m part of you, And now, that I’m moving on for real It might seem like I’m upping the game But I feel that way only partly For over the years I came to see my home in Cardiff At the Llandaff fields I throw the disc on to the setting sun I’ll catch it there at some point when all the changing is done On the dark paths of the Taff trail and through the Bute park I’m riding And all that’s part of how I’ll remember Cardiff At South Luton place, I close the door behind Will I see again your face, is there something else to find There's always the thought that's starting with Am I losing what I had to enjoy But they say: “You can take boy out of Cardiff, But you can never take Cardiff out of the boy“ You and I, we were not meant to be But I stayed and throughout the years you be came Part of me, and I’m part of you, And now, that I‘ve moved on for real It might seem like I’m upping the game But I feel that way only partly For over the years I came to see my home in Cardiff

He greets you with a smile even in the rain Goes on smiling so much you might think he's not sane But as he becomes Gandalf or tells the Bilbo line Suddenly your day gets fine Wake up to find the breakfast to start off the day He‘s a host you look for as a needle in a hay And as he plays the jingles, the tune of T-mobile Suddenly you can‘t help but smile When you wanna get high on the mood He is the guy with the yes attitude Never saying no, like "Laco, lets go fail" "All right let’s do that!" Is this guy ok? I don‘t know but he's a friend not ordinary Only with him you'd be watching Tom and Jerry And if you ever mishear Baywatch lyrics, don't you worry He might run the Salsa cookies , you won‘t be sorry Sing in a whisper and fight off the sleep Wide open eyes you keep When you wanna get high on the mood He is the guy with the yes attitude Never saying no, like "Laco, lets go fail" "All right let’s do that!" Is this guy ok? I don‘t know but he's a friend not ordinary Only with him you'd be watching Tom and Jerry Ashpa-hashpa for the morning Today is the greatest day of your life No time for nothing let alone for mourning Better put the gear to the five And as he says the motto – the motto for today Never be afraid to fail When you wanna get high on the mood He is the guy with the yes attitude Never saying no, like "Laco, lets go fail" "All right let’s do that!" Is this guy ok? I don‘t know but he's a friend not ordinary Only with him you'd be watching Tom and Jerry

Daily ride 04:04
Down a slope he's speeding in into the town Fishermen out on the sea from dusk till dawn And the sun's full of joy and it makes him wanna kill For the frozen thing, shadow and chill In the castle on the hill He hits the break hard by the street seller Gets half a dozen donuts for half a dollar Pushes back to pedals and out of the sight To face a new day, not an easy fight But never falters if it feels right The officer aims the torch at your face “I wanna license to love what you do“, he says “You have it or not, you pay either way“ But it's the license that makes you truly live the day I rush under the moonless sky void of stars Voices and whispers a round swallowed by the dark And the night tells a story as a movie to the blind But behind the veil I come to find That it's me who makes it unwind

Walking on 06:53
One day my friend suggested a thing to try on To go on a walk and to leave my phone at home What the heck I thought why not spend some time on my own So I got out of house and I started Walking on, without my phone Singing a song, walking on First I weave my way through the Canary wharf But among the tall ‘them scrapers I feel like a dwarf Soon I hear the thunder oh, no, the approaching storm But I don’t really mind at least it’s breaking the norm But the wind picks up the speed and heavens open up with the rain I run for shelter but get soaked just the same When it all calms down I look at me and I have a little muse Whether I should give it up but I choose Walking on, without my phone Singing a song, walking on From the Isle of Dog it’s just a bit to the other side Past the Greenwich tunnel and I see my destination in sight At the top of the hill and I look around at the scenery Thinking for how many people is the observatory The highest peak they ever climb On my way back at Cutty Sark I decide to alter My plans and instead of the tunnel I head to Canada water But without Google maps I get lost and I miss my turn Seems like a few more miles I’ll earn Walking on, without my phone Singing a song, walking on Thirst gets the best of me and I grab a can of ginger beer Thinking what direction should I go, which way should I steer I ask the man behind the till if I can walk the tunnel under the Thames He just looks at me and goes… yes Weird, I thought as I ponder what decision is right But eventually I’m going for the tunnel of Rotherhithe Drivers all around are thinking “What kind of weirdo’s walking there” But me? I don’t care so I keep Walking on, without my phone Singing a song, walking on Emerging on the other side I‘m in Limehouse baby And I did not really miss my phone at all, just the camera maybe Instead, as I’m nearing home, I‘m thinking “what a roam” Think I may even write a song and call it Walking on, without my phone Singing a song, walking on Walking on, without my phone Singing a song, walking on

Vices 04:45
Every time you meet him there‘s a girl a round Never is he silent nor ever is he loud With amazing gift has he been endowed It cannot be learned, neither can be taught The type of bloke not easy to find Wondering what it‘s like in his mind Get me a drink Get me a cigarette and pretty lady I know the trick At the same time being loved and hated You call me whenever something's going on Whatever happens, show must go on Get me a drink Cram into a one day as much as you can fit Cause on top of daily hours we live the twenty- fifth Unexpected show-up has always been his thing When you look into his eyes never will he blink The type of bloke not easy to find Wondering what it‘s like in his mind Get me a drink Get me a cigarette and pretty lady I know the trick At the same time being loved and hated You call me whenever something's going on Whatever happens, show must go on Get me a dream Get me a cigarette and pretty lady I know the trick At the same time being loved and hated You call me whenever something's going on Whatever happens, show must go on

When this is done I’ll be free again Though the world that we know will no longer be the same Through the tunnel of darkness I’ll walk alone and I hope to see the other end All I’m asking from above Is to come out on the other side as a better man, as a better man When this is done I’ll break away In my life I’ll start afresh I’ll have another say Embracing the new decade and a change coming my way, a change to be another me But staying true to myself And all of who I used to be, who I used to be It’s time for a change To get back on the stage Of life, and play your song when this is done When this is done I won’t isolate For the hope we’re looking for we all need to create And I’ll look up to you again, this time I swear my lord to look away I won’t Give me another chance, chance to love again And another chance with you, with you God When this is done I’ll try to forget All the things I should have done and said To you and I know it may be too late to say That I’m sorry, I wish I could have been A better man already yesterday

I like to think back to the times when we came down to UK October was full of sun almost every day With the breakfast on the backyard while being stroked with golden rays Down in the Newport, South Wales Dave would pick us in his van and drive up to the hill Make us feel warmly welcome in that drizzly evening chill For all I know and all the places to I have ever been He's the best landlord I have ever seen Fallen leaves on the ground Colors of the fall all around And the wind blows them round your face As you get off the train Calling at Newport, South Wales If you're lucky catch the past 31 train to Abertawe Or Arriva Trains Wales service 6 times an hour And amongst the joyful rugby crowd you'd never feel lonely Calling at Cardiff Central only And when we got our chance to move we packed the full back pack Only to take all the stuff the very next morning back But as the time will come for us to say goodbye to this place In our minds we'll keep those sunny days Fallen leaves on the ground Colors of the fall all around And the wind blows them round your face As you get off the train Calling at Newport, South Wales

Wind is blowing from the ocean shore Me and you we’ve been here before Thinking of the future day and night We’ve had the ups and downs just like the tide When it's high, you're safe to jump down below You know you’re all right from the time it’s been low Wind is blowing from the ocean shore Half closed half open door Seagulls hanging in the air above Not moving forward, life or love And so I do as I feel is right Letting the the fate for me decide Could I ever say goodbye Forever I’ll be hunted by the thought of you and I The seed of thought be planted, yet never grew to see the sky About us me and you Could you ever say I do Wind is blowing from the ocean shore Hitting hard the cliffs of Llantwit Major There's always risk of loose rocks falling down A pile we should have built upon life of our own Buried our love with its weight I keep asking myself, to dig it out is it late Could I see what is right To forget your face or fall asleep seeing you every night Is there a place where happinesses will never be denied To us, me and you Could I ever say I do All the distance of the world we're living in Shows the light in darkness of our doubts We shall find our stories and a path worth following And I wonder if I‘ll still be part of your plans Wind is blowing from the ocean shore I have all I need, yet still I'm poor Searching for the good in this world of vice What is it that makes one settle for a compromise And leave a heart as pure as the air At the ocean shore ever so rare

African bird 03:33
Have you been sent from the heaven above The healing potion A messenger of love Are you the bet on life that brings Over blue ocean This song on its wings Are you the weary traveller that one longs to see In all the hearts shall you be You're the bird with the melody and the golden shield Lay your love down on silver field Is this the God long forgotten place Where hearts are pure And full of grace Where a man comes to teach, but he learns To find the cure In the heart that burns May you flap your wings over the sunlit land Over black continent You're the bird with the melody, carrying pride On a silver field be my bride

Also thanks to everyone who helped me put this together, be it by providing the necessary inspiration and energy, listening to the songs, being there when I busked or joining for a jam, snapping pictures when I couldn’t...
