Demo version for Si (the river won’t flow)

WHEN THE  RIVER WON’T FLOW

Far is the way from home

when the river won’t flow 

When the river won’t flow wow wow wow

when the river won’t flow 

I call up my girl, it’s been too long

living in a world love won’t grow

too much living you won’t regret, after all

talk to the river but it won’t go back, you once belong

Children play in dead-end streets

win the day, make ends meet

Losing time on to-morrow’s feet

now that it’s gone oh boy!

ai ai ai

Far is the way from home….

Look around your world, look up in the air

maybe we’ll share mmm some day

some day when the river calls your name

still babe,  look to Heaven it won’t complain

your prayer

You are like space, around me babe

seeing you, I face

without love I can’t go on

don’t let it slip away….

ai ai ai

KILLING BUTTERFLIES

Oeh, my baby you cry for a little help

Whoops I see you, please help yourself 

money does it mean everything

money doesn’t play all instruments

you got flesh, breast a beautiful laugh

I do believe you sacrifice 

Loving experiences for God and science

ah I’ve seen the light 

Whoops, I lose, you win the battle again 

I am a friend in your nymphomania brand 

Take care when a woman practise her smile  

too many scorpions bet for a bite

you got flesh, breast a beautiful ass

oeh oeh oeh…

God is not my father

mother, not my mother

no sister no brother…. 

Ah! I gotta see the light

Too many lovers hang around your neck

Take the backseat you’re never coming back

Better look around you will pretend

all fake conditions, in the end

Mm you can dane all romance 

I do believe you satisfy

loving experiences kill butterflies 

Don’t kill…butterflies…

nr 2 TRAVELLING MIND

Wat typeert een ‘Travelling Mind’, dat is standaard een dromer, die door ramen van trein of bus staart en denkt / fantaseert / herinnert zich alles wat voorbij trekt in de wolken…..

TRAVELLING MIND

Well if you got a travelling mind

and somebody to know

somebody who loves you

got to help you too

There’s no place exactly to go just a feeling it grows

takin’ you high and low

what a dreamer think he can do

paint the red sun blue make the old a-new find somebody too

well if you got a travelling mind somebody to know, somebody who loves you, gotta help you too..

Now you gonna look at yourself

try to forget where you’ve been

While burning skin woman let you in

Oh, you were lonely in town

now you realise some let you down, who rules you out 

well if you got a travelling mind
