Careful with that axe, eugene...


Life must be a preparation for the transition to another dimension...

Het was alweer halfzeven


Youve got this strange effect on me,
And I like it.
Youve got this strange effect on me,
And I like it.
You make this world seem right,
You make my darkness bright, yes,
You've got this strange effect on me,
And I like it, and I like it

And I like the way you kiss me,
Don't know if I should, but this feeling,
Its love and I know it,
Thats why I feel good.

She comes in colors ev'rywhere;
She combs her hair
She's like a rainbow
Coming, colors in the air
Oh, everywhere
She comes in colors

Have you seen her dressed in blue?
See the sky in front of you
And her face is like a sail
Speck of white so fair and pale
Have you seen a lady fairer?

Have you seen her all in gold?
Like a queen in days of old
She shoots her colors all around
Like a sunset going down
Have you seen a lady fairer?

You make my tired heart sing...


Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us

Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And a window lookin' on the mountains and the sea
how lovely

This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember

I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was a only a bitter tragic joke
Have found with you the meaning of existence oh, my love

[ Stan Getz - Corcovado (Quiet nights of Quiet stars) ]

Tristesse



Aangekomen bij mijn voordeur zocht ik mijn sleutel. Ik drukte voor de lol eens op mijn eigen deurbel, wat nutteloos was, want er was toch niemand thuis.
Nadat ik mijn sleutel had gevonden, bleek dit helemaal niet zo lollig te zijn. Aan de andere kant van het raam staarde een paard met een lange zwarte jas en combat boots mij strak aan.

Pluk




Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to nought, or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say

[ Pink Floyd - Time ]

Furbies



Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air

And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine
And no one showed us to the land
And no one knows the where's or why's
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can
And no one calls us to move on
And no one forces down our eyes
And no one speaks
And no one tries
And no one flies around the sun

Cloudless every day you fall
Upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Comes streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky.

[ Pink Floyd : Echoes ]
