Breakfast with Chopin
02:49

Look how time is passing right by us
Time can’t even see us in this old café
Streets, lights; crowds will never find us
as I sit here and listen—listen to you play
and right now with a smile and a handshake
I am watching your heart break in music being born
and somehow, it is coming between us
Love can’t even see us
as the song plays on
Cause I know
there’s a longing inside you
and I’ll stay here beside you when the music calls
Lights low, feel the magic unfolding
and it's my hand you'll be holding—when the silence falls

Storyteller

You speak of unicorns
And pirate ships and leprechauns
And islands where statues
Touch the sky
I’m stuck upon your words
So hypnotized, it almost hurts
To think the night will ever pass us by
Cause it’s your face that’s like a light
Your face is shining bright
You look at me
And suddenly I’m blinded
I hope you’ll always find your way
But if you ever stray
The treasure that you seek
I hope you’ll find it
I’m like a little girl
I’m dreaming of a different world
And you’re the only cure
For my longing
I look into your eyes
So blue they leave me mesmerized
And wonder
If they’re brighter in the morning
And it’s your face that’s like a light
Your face is shining bright
You look at me
And suddenly I’m blinded
I hope you’ll always find your way
But if you ever stray
The treasure that you seek
I hope you’ll find it
Tell me of lands
That lie beyond the sky
Where people may have learned to fly
I wonder how they do it
I wonder how they do it
’Cause you make me want to see it all
And I can hear adventure’s call
It’s what I always needed
I wonder how you knew it
That I can’t take my eyes off you...
can’t take my eyes off you...
Cause it’s your face that’s like a light
Your face is shining bright
You look at me
And suddenly I’m blinded
I hope you’ll always find your way
But if you ever stray
The treasure that you seek
I hope you’ll find it
Storyteller, you are my storyteller...

Snapshot

A blue dress
A silhouette framed by a still doorway
A sudden smile
A summer storm
A blue day
This was just a glimpse of heaven
Now my memory has failed
And all I have is this
worn out and faded photograph
In black and white
That still reminds me
Time flies
It knows no guilt
It gives you no warning
And I recall that long ago morning
Even if I’d known how perfect
We were then
And just how precious
every moment was
I wouldn’t change a thing
I miss you
There is no cure for this unbound aching
So many years
And still my heart’s breaking
Thank you for this gift of heaven
Now my memory has failed
And all I have is this
worn out and faded photograph
In black and white
That still reminds me
You’re gone
But in my mind it is a blue morning
I’m standing still
I’m watching you, turning
In the doorway where you kissed me
Even if I’d known how precious
every moment was
I wouldn’t change a single thing
Cause you’re gone
But in my mind
It is a blue morning
I’m standing still
I’m watching you, turning
In the doorway where you kissed me
Even if I’d known how precious
every moment was
I wouldn’t change a thing

Lullaby for E
03:40
|
|||
If you’d only seen the things I’d seen
And walked the roads I’d walked alone
Maybe you would know why I sing
And why I love this sad, old song
Cause long ago and far away
There lived a girl who knew no fame
All these years gone by and here I am
I sing her song and wear her name
Dear, please remember
I will always be here for you
All through the dark and lonely days to come
And when you grow weary
I will sing a song of mercy
Like this sweet lullaby to carry you home
Carry you home
Carry you…
So if you think that you can choose
The way this life lays out your cards
Think of all those years gone by and still
We sing our songs of broken hearts
Dear, please remember
I will always be here for you
All through the dark and lonely days to come
And when you grow weary
I will sing a song of mercy
Like this sweet lullaby to carry you home
Carry you home
Carry you…
And kingdoms rise and then they fall
And cities die, as do we all
But there will always be this sad, old song
To touch your heart
And warm your soul.

Mariner’s Song
04:21

Once I was lost—lost at sea
and the wind carried me
to the end of the world
where you were
I lost my ship and my crew
I was weak, black and blue
Till my feet touched the ground
where you were
I carry you with me,
light as a feather
you are the beacon,
when I go the distance;
when I cross the water
Carry you with me
like a reminder:
you are the reason
why I keep on moving
why I brave the ocean
And if the wind should bring me here
I’ll never be alone
So when the sky is high and clear
I’ll trust the ship to take me home
Life is a gift, and I know
when it’s time, I shall go
to the end of the world,
where you are
Cause I have no fear
of the deep
when it’s time, I shall sleep
at the end of the world,
where you are
I carry you with me,
light as a feather
you are the beacon,
when I go the distance;
when I cross the water
Carry you with me,
like a reminder:
you are the reason,
why I keep on moving
why I brave the ocean
And if the wind should bring me here,
I’ll never be alone
so when the sky is high and clear,
I’ll trust the ship to take me home
I’ll trust the ship to take me home
Once I was lost—lost at sea
and the wind carried me
to the end of the world
where you were
I lost my ship and my crew
I was weak, black and blue
Till my feet touched the ground
where you were
I carry you with me,
light as a feather
you are the beacon,
when I go the distance;
when I cross the water
Carry you with me
like a reminder:
you are the reason
why I keep on moving
why I brave the ocean
And if the wind should bring me here
I’ll never be alone
So when the sky is high and clear
I’ll trust the ship to take me home
Life is a gift, and I know
when it’s time, I shall go
to the end of the world,
where you are
Cause I have no fear
of the deep
when it’s time, I shall sleep
at the end of the world,
where you are
I carry you with me,
light as a feather
you are the beacon,
when I go the distance;
when I cross the water
Carry you with me,
like a reminder:
you are the reason,
why I keep on moving
why I brave the ocean
And if the wind should bring me here,
I’ll never be alone
so when the sky is high and clear,
I’ll trust the ship to take me home
I’ll trust the ship to take me home

Kite
03:24
|
|||
I wish I was blameless
Could soar like I'm weightless
I'd fly through the sky, counting clouds on my way
'Cause I would be fearless
and I would grow breathless
I'd laugh at the wind as I fly through the day
A kite has no doubts as it cuts through the clouds
And it fights the string
when it feels it pulling downwards
It lives on the ground but it dreams of the sky
A bird trapped inside of a heart that aches to fly
This life is a puzzle and pieces are scattered
They are just like clouds,
changing shape all the time
And if I was fearless, I'd soar like I'm weightless
And all of those pieces would be there to find
A kite has no doubts as it cuts through the clouds
And it fights the string
when it feels it pulling downwards
It lives on the ground but it dreams of the sky
A bird trapped inside of a heart that aches to fly
I live on the ground, but I dream of the sky
A bird trapped inside of my heart that aches to fly.
