Rosemarry

I presented myself, the first thing you did
you bought me a rosemary plant!
i let it drop from my clumsy tiny hands
Sometimes i'm not sure of things i do
but that made me think about you
I jumped like a kid
When i saw you with a rose and chocolate lips
I didn't share but you kissed me anyway
you smiled at my sweet tooth
it's so hard not to think about you
What can i say?
your smile is just sweeter than the candies i'm always craving to have
for keeping me from falling apart i say "thank you"
You glued my broken heart
I presented myself
the first thing you did you bought me a rosemary plant!
So funny how much a plant can do...
i just didn't have a clue,
now i love to think about you
then came one day
you didn't bring me tulips or a chocolate cake
cause you thought i wanted something else
you felt we were past due
but that wasn't simply true.
So you came back
your smile was sweeter than the candies i'm always craving to have
for keeping me from falling apart i say "thank you"
you glued my broken heart
I presented myself
the first thing you did you bought me a rosemary plant!
So funny how much a plant can do!
and with a rose i should just marry you..

Lullaby
04:14
|
|||
I don't belong to these streets and these places
i cannot wear different smiles, different faces
i thought one day to escape from home for a better place
it was only a little prayer
now it's just a lullaby for whoever feels this way
My heart will understand when
i'll let my dreams recall my long past
cause your far away from my memories, from my pain
you will stop to feel so far
the moment i remember that you are
still part of my lullaby
I miss the sound of the streets and those places
i miss the look of your smile and familiar faces
i thought one day to leave memories for a better place
it was only a little prayer
now it's just a lullaby for whoever feels this way
My heart will understand when
i'll let my dreams recall my long past
cause your far away from your memories, from my pain
you will stop to feel so far
the moment i remember that you are
still part of my lullaby
I don't belong to these streets and these places
i miss the look of your smile and familiar faces
i thought one day to escape from home to a better place
it was only a little prayer
now it's just a lullaby for whoever feels this way

...don't see blue skies
05:43
|

You are too beautiful
to think there will not be another pure love
just crying and betraying yourself
to keep your old love story hard to forget
you don't see blue skies
they've always been there high
You are too intelligent
to fall into rules and the traps of your past
just counting on sweet little details
they can't make two lovers always feel well
you don't see blue skies
that have always been high
Then a new smile comes awaking your lost dreams
do you feel electric?
do you feel how love really feels?
Fly high,
Jump 'till you reach your blue skies
moments are your life, they come and pass by
forever has been made for people to protect themselves
so please, try, fly high
You are too free
to fall into rules and stupid moralisms
selfish is not who wants simply more
and we are not meant to struggle all day long
you don't see blue skies
they've always been there high
So close your eyes and dream that face you met
do you feel electric?
do you feel how love really feels ?
Fly high...

Big kiss
04:16
|
|||
I'm here again
spreading marmalade on a piece of bread
i'm not so sad
it's just that i'd like to see you again
Alone again
my messy bed has room not even for myself
i don't feel bad
it's just that i miss your tender caress
I know that you can't hear me
but i'm glad that you could recognize my eyes
between so many out there
and even if you are gone you left me so much hope
my heart can finally breathe
I send you a big kiss
with a bunch of memories of you and me
so hard to call it past, the love that couldn't last
still feels so real
now there's no much left
we're just a photo on a shelf
...but i send you a big kiss,
with a smile upon my face
It's early here,
my feet are cold, i know it's warm, the heater is also near
already fall
i still wait in vain your usual call
I know that you can't hear me
but i'm glad that you could recognize my eyes
between so many out there
and even if you are gone you left me so much hope
my heart can finally breathe
I send you a big kiss
with a bunch of memories of you and me
so hard to call it past, the love that couldn't last
still feels so real
now there's no much left
we're just a photo on a shelf
...but i send you a big kiss,
with a smile upon my face.

Gently pissed
03:42
|
|||
I tried to hide
but everyone is asking
where the heck you are???
I'm not very close
let's just say
i'm on the other side of the globe
I tried to come back
but they don't believe
i'm no terrorist
I am considered a stranger
but i feel like
everyone else
If i truly said what i think about freedom
in our wonderful system
My love, i would not see you
very, very soon...
How long can i resist
it's you i miss
i can't move, this world is cruel
cause i can't touch you
A little to much ass i gotta kiss
that's why i got to remain
gently pissed
Now that i sing you this song
i could truly become
a prisoner
But i believe there are too many people
who suffer like
i did
They can take my freedom
but they can't take my love
and my happiness
And by the way i think that love is freedom
the only freedom
we got left!
If i truly said what i think about what matters
in our wonderful system
My love, i would not see you
very, very soon...
How long can i resist
it's you i miss
i can't move, this world is cruel
cause i can't touch you
A little to much ass i gotta kiss
that's why i got to remain
gently pissed.

Let's be completely sad
02:41
|
|||
I don't understand
when you try to make me feel the worse is gonna end
today i don't feel ok
i don't need another voice screaming, jumping in my head
oh yeah, oh yeah
And you, yes i'm talking to you!
why do you have to make me feel it's so wrong to be blue
i'm sick of pretending i'm happy
just to make somebody else not screaming in my face
oh yeah, oh yeah
Let's be completely sad
we need to reach the bottom end
OK...why don't we go to the beach?
or a nice walk on the street
let's finish today with a smile and a beautiful memory
Now, why do you look at me that way?
There's no happiness without being a lot or little sad
now that i relax my brain
let's go to sleep 'cause tomorrow'll be the same
oh yeah, oh yeah.

I am just a girl
i came from far away
you have to walk a lot to go there
...and swim, swim a lot
People tell me i can communicate
but i'll tell you the truth
i don't understand many words
...and i don't always know what i want to do
but i wanted to change and no matter what i try
i still have the same question that echoes in my mind
What the fuck was i thinking about?
I’d like some ice cream and cookies
i’d like some pasta and coffee
i ate too many cookies, now i feel so fat
and my diet needs to restart from scratch
But i remember the street and i remember the smell
and i remember it was so easy
...to walk and drive and fit in
...to walk and drive and fit in
but i wanted to change and no matter what i try
i still have the same question that echoes in my mind
What the fuck was i thinking about?
...then i met this guy,
the biggest love of my life,
but similarities weren't too many
to keep me down, to keep my mouth shut
...now i lost his trust and i don't know why
sometimes i act like a bastard
someone told me once if you act like this is just because love
has never been enough
will never be enough
but i wanted to change and no matter what i try
i still have the same question that echoes in my mind
What the fuck was i thinking about?

Forgive me, my love
03:21
|

It would have been better to tell you it's over
instead i just told you that i had a lover
Forgive me my love
our love had gone so far
i couldn't figure out
it was too painful to realize...
That it would have been honest to tell you right after
instead i kept hiding, pretending few laughters
Forgive me my love
i was so scared, so lost
i kept alive a hope...
Sometimes you wanna keep some love from being washed away, just for yourself
and i kept hoping you could be so different from what you were
now i see you're just so wonderful like this
but you were not the one, the one for me...
It would have been better to tell you it's over
instead i just told you that i had a lover
Forgive me my love
i was so scared, so lost
i kept alive a hope...
Sometimes you wanna keep some love from being washed away, just for yourself
and i kept hoping you could be so different from what you were
now i see you're just so wonderful like this
but you were not the one, the one for me...
It would have been better, but this is what happened
i'm glad we're still able to discover new laughters.

Question marks
01:49

Question marks, question marks
love is only a matter of prospective...
Question marks, question marks
the next song is only a matter of good luck...
Question marks, question marks
habits are only a matter of bad memory...
