Wanderland 04:16
Wanderland 
 One day in wonderland 
My eyes were covered with cotton wool haze... 
What a cool phase. 
It took me by surprise
 I found myself lying beneath urban skies
 But suddenly everything broke 
And I believe  that you are gently folding back. 
Take the stairs and go outside 
don’t think twice 
Because nothing ….. When things are falling off the roof 
There’s nothing I can do about it…
 When rain's falling from the sky 
I turn  away and start to smile 
Because nothing ….. It’s one big mess and you don’t know
 How to handle it any more.
 You use to say  “you live& learn”
But some things never change
I guess you always knew it 
Good things come in small packs
 ..Take a bite ...
Appreciate what you have got
'cause it won't last forever Course
2.
Keep the Faith I remember when  I was five years old,
my dad  took me on his bike, all the way to kindergarten 
He used to put  my hair in his mouth in a gentle way
I know  it felt so good. My mother did the best she could  to satisfy everyone
 although she couldn’t
 Tell me who can? Corus He tried to save me time & money and spare a broken heart too
To teach me a lesson he couldn’t grasped himself We try to do our best,
 but sometimes it's not enough
 We try to keep the faith…
for better days to come to come It was a small place in a small town
 where everybody knows everyone.
An old   fat woman was doing the laundry
and a mailman coming by every once in a while. 
The street was empty and so was time It was my neighborhood and it felt just fine. Corus Every time he tries to make his old man proud
 he found out that parallel worlds don’t meet
 Lost time spent on the bottle.. 
I guess growing up the hard way
 Is the only way to grow
3.
Getting Along I blew up a balloon this morning They say its good for the lungs Yes I do have a difficulty breathing This pollution is getting stronger. So I sit down to play it’s almost the only thing That brings some oxygen to my soul I asked a friend of mine how he manages to hold on He said I am not I am just not thinking anymore Without thinking anymore I’m not thinking anymore Course I am just getting along Right now playing this role Without thinking anymore I am just getting along Silent breeze came in and Took me far away from home To a place I have been many years ago But the noise from outside makes it difficult To continue my diving For a moment or two, Yeah, I keep coming to you Without thinking anymore I’m not thinking anymore Course I am just getting along Right now playing this role Without thinking anymore I am just getting along

Yourself 04:42
Yourself You never pay the toll when you enter,
They always charge you when you leave.
You know it's a bunch of bullshit 
But you keep following the same old steps No one comes to visit 
You've been left alone on Saturday night
 ..You know that something is missing
 But you can't pin it down 
Course 
Cause  you Keep yourself to yourself You've never been a shoe gazer 
You just always looked away from yourself
. The truth is hard to swallow 
So you just keep drinking whatever can take these blues away. No-one knows you in this town
 Cause you wasted your time on your dreams
 You know that I can't help you
'cues you like to be  in between 
Course 
Cause  you Keep yourself to yourself
5.
Coming Home 03:41
Coming Home Coming home to you
 Whatever I do I walk along empty these empty streets a free ride is what i need
 To charge my battery 
Rolling... Try to fix everything even if it ain't broken
Try to do what I please
For me I know there is no other option 
Setting up a timetable that you never gonna follow
Cooking a meal when you ain't hungry
Want  you when you are not here
I think I fucked it up again & here I am ....
I am Longing for you... coming home to you 
Whatever I do After bleeding in a blind alley
 i am Packing one's bags
 & now I am ready 
To come back you coming home to you
 Whatever I do
6.
Sofa 02:57
Sofa Sitting on the sofa
 Playing an old tune,
 While the sound of inspiration
 Took me to you.. 
It's hard for me to make the closure
 While your memory is still alive in me. 
One thing I know
 It isn't over till I'm done 
Everything must die,
Many things go by,
Why does it bring me down when it's over.
 Fractions of my sanity
 Floating away
 ..Mama don't know how
 I'll get out of this place.
Knew that one day 
You'll come back to me
 Ho my goodness.
how come you're leaving me? Everything must die, so many things go by,
Why does it bring me down when it's over. Why does it bring me down
I don't know why I feel so high.
One thing I can't deny is what you did to me that night
.
7.
Out Of The Woods Nothing changes unless you change it
.I know it's easier said than done.
Right now I'm looking forward to tomorrow 
Because the day refuses to end on time.
You have to step up to plate some times. Another sun has set...  for a while,
It gives more time to think.
Be careful what you wish for  my dear friend,
It may come true, you just have to believe
 true blue, you've got to be. I'm not out of the woods yet,
There's one more mile for me to go...
My love, out there she waits for me.
So Ill just keep going on.
I won't stop till I get home. She packs her life in a blue suitcase,
And heads  towards the rising sun.
She didn't tell me where & why she's going
 You wait until the time is right. I'm not out of the woods yet,
There's one more mile for me to go.
..My love, out there she waits for me.
So Ill just keep going on.
I won't stop till I get home.

The Q Song 04:49
The Q Song 
This day won't come again...
You're just strumming now,
See if you can track him down
 And your smile is not around.. 
I am just driving all over town 
I am almost forty and my pocket is empty
.No success no glam, just my conscience hits me once again. 
I am bumping into these walls that never end.
 What happened to us?
 Where have we lost the path?
I am in too dee. I am running out of gas,
But still on the main road baby not so fast
. Strive with all my strength
,Although my six string is still in my hands 
I am like a smoking gun that missed again

. What happened to us? 
Where have we lost the path? 
I am in too deep. ​ ​Fancy chords won't do that for me
 Just looking for simplicity
? I am taking this harmony 
Just looking for (some) company….
I feel there is no gravity
9.
All The Way 04:56
All The Way All the way all the way… Will you take this road? Find a way find a way to write these words It seems that all has been gone and you must find  your own way Because memories that come up will take you a long way Driving insanity on  this rollercoaster  Long night on the road distill my emotions The image of you is clearly then ever before Looking for smoke to keep me awake  All the way all the way… Will you take this road? Find a way find a way to write these words It seems that all has been gone and you have got to find it your way Because memories that come up will take you a long way
10.
Another Plane Another plane has passed above  my head
 Its voice seemed to patronize me 
Our feet are under white water 
Yes I guess nothing is left for me 
Except The moment.... Corus
 The moment that never came
 The moment, the movement of our feet again Our last goodbye was a requiem for a dream 
And all I had to do was to get along 
And I've seen that everybody wants to sell their  soul 
God it's not me
I'm standing here and waiting for the moment... Corus
 The moment that never came
 The moment, the movement of our feet again Once you get  me, I'm all yours ( I'm all yours)
Once I take you everything will fall  (everything will fall )
11.
Write Me A Letter I know it's hard for you to take
 The time is changing and the place…
It's coming back to you 
You're running away they are talking too loud 
God  has his way to teach you what's right
It's right for you….

 Chorus.

 So write me a letter sing me a song 
Tell me what's on your mind if you want...
If you want… 
The dream will never fall a sleep…
She is so beautiful but she is out of your league
 ..She is out of reach... 
There are cheap clichés to every demand & Polished advisers will get you the acquittal
,Cause justice is just... a point of view Chorus.

 So write me a letter sing me a song 
Tell me what's on your mind if you want...
If you want… If something breaks inside you
 Take these pieces make them new
 Let those dreams come true 
Don’t be afraid to walk all alone 
 Sometimes you don’t see where and what for…
Come on let's take it home..
12.
Asking 05:47
Asking Suddenly I found myself The main character in the book I have read So it's brought me down What I have be come... What I have be come... People come & go  And I'm just sitting down looking for... evening falls.. It's cold outside And I'm fractured from the inside Out I am asking myself Telling no tale Sometimes I am  just cursing what the hell I wonder what you are doing now Have you finish your work are you coming down A man never failed without trying So I am trying... He did a tattoo on is arm  But pain breast is hard Outside the rain falling down All the way down Town All the way down Town The rain keeps falling down
13.
Sweet Smoke 03:04
Sweet Smoke Ho what is with you ?
 You're taking a picture that only you can
, See the world from a different angle. 
Sweet smoke's covering your eyes once again Ho woman you’re part of me
 But you gonna have to forgive me for all the 
things I did in the past,
Things that might come up
 Down the road again... course 
In our dreams, there is no stop sign
 So why don't you step on it, step on it. She said "don’t be an amateur
 Ya, you must do it all', all by yourself
 But listen to the sound of your life
 'Cause it might be the best tune you've ever heard.. course 
In our dreams, there is no stop sign
 So why don't you step on it, step on it.
