  • Abandoned Home – lyrics

    quiet corner, shadows play,
    ivy creeps, memories lay,
    there’s a house, all alone,
    stories etched, every stone.

    windows stare, longing gaze,
    distant echoes, bygone days,
    through doors ajar, the breeze,
    flows through the memories.

    abandoned home, full of memories,
    whispers linger in the autumn breeze,
    floors that creak with the weight of years,
    yet in the silence, love still appears.

    the fireplace emits no light,
    cold embers in the night,
    in its ashes, the stories remain,
    echoing laughter, echoing pain.

    rooms a canvas, life’s design,
    faded colours of heart and mind,
    furniture draped, sheets of white,
    waiting for one last night.

    abandoned home, full of memories,
    whispers linger in the autumn breeze,
    nature reclaims, with vines entwined,
    yet in the ruins, love you’ll find.

    abandoned home, full of memories,
    whispers linger in the autumn breeze,
    guarding secrets, tales untold,
    in this home, now still and cold.

  • Waiting in the Rain – lyrics

    Waiting in the rain for you,
    I should leave but still I stay
    In case you arrive I remain ,
    Waiting in the rain for you.

    Huddled on this corner soaked to the bone
    Broken umbrella heart filled with ache
    Time ticks slowly waiting on my own
    Realising our mistakes 

    I watch the world pass in shades of grey
    Time passes and still no sign
    No glimpse of you coming back to stay

    Memories dance in the misty air
    While I stand in the pouring rain
    Promises broken lies laid bare
    So much hurt so much pain

  • Walking In My Sleep – lyrics

    In the depths of night
    I start to roam
    alone I stride
    far from home

    moonlight guides
    my silent strides
    secrets hide
    on every side

    walking in my sleep
    lots of things I find
    some I’d like to keep
    some to leave behind
    walking in my sleep

    fields of gold
    rivers of sighs
    dark and cold 
    under midnight skies

    let me wander
    let me ponder
    let me roam 
    far from home

    walking in my sleep
    lots of things I find
    some I’d like to keep
    some to leave behind
    walking in my sleep

  • Sleep Softly Now – lyrics

    let the worries fade away
    in the stillness of the night
    sleep softly now 
    until the morning light

    close your weary eyes
    let your troubles go
    in the silence of the night
    let your spirit flow

    let the gentle breeze
    lull you to your rest
    in the cradle of the night
    feel sleep’s caress

    sleep softly now
    let the darkness embrace
    find comfort in its arms
    find peace in its space

    with gentle whispers
    the night unfolds its tale
    as darkness blankets all
    like a comforting veil

    let the gentle rhythms
    carry you away
    to a place of quiet
    where you’ll gently sway

    let the worries fade away
    in the stillness of the night
    sleep softly now
    dream until the morning light
    sleep softly now

  • Time is Passing – lyrics

    time is passing so slow today
    oh yeah time is passing so slow today
    I may be wrong to sing my song
    and let the time just pass away

    nothing I need to do today
    no there’s nothing I need to do today
    so it may be wrong to sing some songs
    but I’ll just let time pass away

    nowhere I need to be today
    no there’s nowhere I need to be today
    so it may be wrong to sing my songs
    as I just let time pass away
    so I may be wrong to sing my songs
    while I just let time pass away

  • Yelling Into the Void – lyrics

    I shout my anguish my fear my pain 
    but noone listens yet again
    I’ll shout it out let the words take flight
    I’ll shout it out with all my might

    Yelling into the void but there’s no reply
    Met with silence I scream, I cry
    Yelling into the void for all these years
    shouting and screaming till someone hears

    Though my cries may fade away
    I’ll keep yelling come what may
    In the void I’ll make my stand
    A lone voice heard across the land

    So let me scream let me roar
    Until my voice is heard once more

    Yelling into the void but there’s no reply
    Met with silence I scream, I cry
    Yelling into the void for all these years
    shouting and screaming till someone hears

    Yelling into the void I won’t give in
    I’ll keep shouting, until I win
    Yelling into the void until I’m hoarse
    No regrets no remorse

  • Castle Ruins – lyrics

    In shadows cast by stones of old
    whispers rise from depths untold 
    for though the castle may decay
    its spirit lingers bright as day
    In the ruins memories unfold

  • Bittersweet – lyrics

    tears of joy 
    a sorrow laced smile
    bittersweet moments 
    from a bittersweet life

    light and shade
    pleasure and pain
    without contrast there is no meaning

    tears of joy 
    a sorrow laced smile
    bittersweet moments 
    from a bittersweet life

    joy and sorrow
    bittersweet
    i just want the balance right

    tears of joy 
    a sorrow laced smile
    bittersweet moments 
    from a bittersweet life

    i want more pleasure than pain
    more up than down
    more joy than sorrow

    tears of joy 
    a sorrow laced smile
    bittersweet moments 
    from a bittersweet life

  • White Dove – lyrics

    Under skies of blue, where troubles end,
    A symbol of peace, a dove ascends.
    Its feathers, a canvas, pure and white, 
    Glide through the skies, a beacon of light.

    Oh, white dove, take me away, 
    To a place where dreams don’t fade, 
    with strong intent take to the sky, 
    Oh, white dove, away you fly.

    In times of trouble, when hearts grow weary, 
    The white dove whispers, soft and airy. 
    It carries hopes on gentle wings, 
    And to a troubled world, some hope it brings.

    Oh, white dove, take me away, 
    To a place where dreams don’t fade, 
    with strong intent take to the sky, 
    Oh, white dove, away you fly.

    In lands divided, by walls of fear, 
    The white dove’s call, so crystal clear. 
    It seeks no borders, nor lines drawn deep, 
    But a world united, where all may sleep.

    Oh, white dove, take me away, 
    To a place where dreams don’t fade, 
    with strong intent take to the sky, 
    Oh, white dove, away you fly.

    oh white dove you still remain
    a symbol of hope amidst the pain
    with every beat of your gentle wing
    a dream of peace you bring
