Dazed in the sunshine
Amazed by the light in your smile
This is everything we’re supposed to be
Wait, pick a number
I’m running to avoid the thunder
Don’t confuse the homesick with the refugee
Let’s go out in the city till everybody knows our name
We could move to the countryside and be forever fashionably late
Ways of the old kind:
Too many words and all things blind
Charming isn’t really what you found in me
Car seat romance, candle light:
Is this what you had in mind?
(Erase the title, change it into honesty)

I Am a Fox

I am a fox across the road
I’m staring through an open door
Watching your lips moving around the words you say at night
I’ll try and shred my coat
Continue to forget about these days
My eyes go on and blame the street light
He walked upon, he switched around
He handed her the opium pipe
She said: “Hey man, what’s it gonna be like?”
She liked the smell of metal stairs
On sweaty hands and in despair
He said: “Woman, will you be alright?”
Tonight he wanders far and wide
Along the old construction site
It’s endless faking…
Let’s drown tonight
Let’s never stop
Let’s fall in love
Let’s blow it up

I live in Brussels on a hill
“Won’t you come on down?”, she said.
“Come down”
And still
I climb this mountain every night to watch the sun rise
Stars dissolve like I did in my time
What’s the use denying there’s a truth behind it?
Live your little life in day-to-day compassion
Be naive
I landed on her windowsill
“Won’t you come on in?”, she told the winter chill
I fear I might not stay the night
Afraid to wait or am I late or wouldn’t it be wise?
Ain’t that just the way?
Living day to day
I’ll be telling this tomorrow as I’m telling it today
Afraid to wait or am I late or wouldn’t it be wise?
Afraid to wait or am I late to watch and televise?

Better start opening up, better trip in front
Better start opening up to who?
Whether it’s me locked up (fucked up)
Or you seeing through me: I leave my eyes with you
Desperation kills your darling:
The pain of every other day
Ways of thinking straight (and giving everything away)
Don’t be fearful, I forgot your eyes begging for sleep
I leave my eyes with you

Boy

“Boy, I see myself a life ago in you, boy
Shhh, the more you talk the less I hear the truth
Once, I used to think that I had all the answers
But man, when everybody does, the joke’s on you
Boy, I see my life like every father should
Twice: thinking of my youthfulness, thinking of my youth
Go now, I will hide my fears and never say:
Boy, I see myself a life ago in you, boy”

Sweet Potato

A warm shadow over a dim streetlight
Let’s stay inside tonight and try again some other time around
A white blanket over your big brown eyes
When will we realize the daybreak brings another paradise
Sweet potato, hold your breath and count to ten
All the faces you let in will guide the way
We only have one night before the fool becomes the wise
Close your eyes, sweet potato, close your eyes
Dark chocolate and tea from the finest leaves
Hands reaching up to me, say: “This is now, as good as it can be”
So start sweetly by turning your eyes to me
Look at me patiently
Now is now, as good as it can be
