Weddings & widows

Wed ye thy bride Take off her gown Lay by her side At morning dawn Be you truly Her man and pride Her life and love The old widow cried

'Till thoughts may part

Rather I away want t’ be Than sit and wait Merely to flee Into the wildfire Oh your eyes Preaching desire Rather I away want t’ be Than heave the load Merely to see Your heavenly smile Oh piercing souls Once more struck Rather the sun I want to feel To bring me warmth ‘Cause how’d you steal My breath You thief Oh my heart I’ll sit and gaze ‘Till thoughts may part

Through your eyes, no one's blind

To roses oh roses Roses are my ache Where did all the good nights go It’s all a matter of time I take So now it’d be My time to confess ‘Cause those slow winter days are Me but never the less And if spring may take me And leave me breathless Or love may fall upon me I’ll know sometimes blind men And weak hearts through your eyes Have everything they longed Before them to see

The fool

Through the waters near LondonSir William cameSearching for lustBut lost in his fameGold oh more goldThe winner it betsGold oh more goldBut never he getsNo meaning nor lifeOr loving to strifeOh what a fool he isFor it’s living and lovingThe fool will miss

The city where I loved the most

The city where I loved the most Where ardency fills my eyes as I gaze upon the dimmed lanterns And light flickers continuously on the old arbor Where my lack of courage expands When your smile enters the room And time demands a plan But no roads taken Nor plans in time Like old books on shelves As love and lust occur We are the young lovers our older selves will somehow remind us of who we were And away we happened. We felt, we loved, we were.

Soms zou ik zeggen

Soms zou ik zeggen dat het beter kon Want de tijd vervaagt Alsof expressie haar minnaar is Koud en onbezonnen Soms zou ik zeggen dat het beter kon Want haar blik is de winnaar In de strijd tussen mijn Troebele Tegenstrijdige gedachten Soms zou ik zeggen dat het beter kon Want ze vult haar lach Met woorden die niemand ziet Desondanks Vatbaar voor mij Soms zou ik zwijgen Al denkend Starend naar het plafond Met de gedachte “Tot grote spijt Mijn groot verdriet Nochtans de liefde Ooit geweest”

One day

The clouds disappearing Whilst the sun rushes its way in The heavenly skies above Those loving, shining eyes Calmly but enduring Light passes its way Along your softly prowled lips One kiss if I may Because the night is full of fray Filled with hopes and pray In the hope, that once I may Kiss your lips again, one day

Mistress of time

Mistress of time Oh the old clocks ticking away Filled my life with leaps She was but astray Silent in words But speaking in time The essence so gorgeously  became clear Living life with hope Becomes living without fear But what, oh who The silence has become Why and where When oh when Did we hug the light The inevitable day Of my own Ravishing rebirth

Luchtig vluchtig

IkBeschouwd als luchtLuchtig tussendoortjeIndien aandacht nodig wasNu niets meer dan datKleine tussenspelZoals jij daar stond en ik daar zatOch toch een gekwelGij zijt geen metgezelNee toch niet meerWant gij, die daar staatKeer op keerZult vergaan in luchtVanwege gij geduchtVan mijn diepe aandachtToch steeds wegvlucht

Last days of an old man

Young hearts during spring, gather around For the dance of summer’s about to start One Two Three One step at a time And rhythm takes its part But far away, in the background A melody stumbles through the days One Two And it sways Through passed memories of an old man playing chess Pawns moved The king Checkmate But never the less A soft embrace So the man spent his days One And time slammed the door ‘Cause life, people Is just a wonderful punch in the face

Kiss of fire

Your kiss of fire which at dawn awaits We are nothing but dancing light In the restless dream of time Three touches, two souls One moment meets the prime Like nothing else could ever matter in our life We collide Still we’re the dream Only if we might Were you the sun And I the moon We both would be light

In die van u

In die van uKijken mijn ogenDiep, zo diepMet mijn handstrijkend langsUw langediepe kaaklijnZachtjes diezelfdeVerlangende handlangs uw schouders naar benedenNaar benedenEn naar benedenDichter komen lichamen te staanAls hemellichamen vol aantrekkingZichzelf naar elkaar Stilletjes aan toetrekkenPlotseling mijn hand Met uw been rondom mijAls de tango Danst in de nachtDe rest is tasten in de duisternisTot het eerste licht vanuit het raamkozijn

Vivid stars from the embrace of divinity

I still remember it vividly The stars shining bright Sounds from the forest surrounding me Everything was atmosphereThe simplicity of the dirt through my fingers as my fingers touched the ground The absurdity of sound I could breathe it The embrace of a soft breeze running through my hair Such divinity I could feel it Grabbing me fiercely As I held on to it

I shall turn into disappearance

Muses follow the aspiring sound The sound of writersblock Knock Knock Knock It says While solemnly lingering through the night But if I could see within your eyes The passion of liberty As ferocious dreams In the pale mind of young hearts Is my end coming near so well Did my eyes not speak Wished I not to sing for you No voice and heart both remain weak So I turned around For late be the hour I shall turn into disappearance

Go be liberty

My wandering lust Along with pine Love may combust Between your heart and mine Like a thief in the night You stole my breath For I’m now grasping for air And awaiting the dance of moonlight I say Go Be liberty within those eyes And let hearts catch fire ‘Cause no sun Nor song Or heavenly whisper Could ever still this spring’s desire

Geheim

‘K wil u graag vertellen Maar ik weet niet te beginnen ‘K heb geen beloftes nodig Maar ik zou u graag beminnen Uw ogen en uw lippen Mijn hart wordt onstabiel  Laat u zachtjes binnenglippen In het diepste van mijn ziel

Fragile spine

To where my lady lies asleep Dreaming dreams in secrets deep ‘Bout better worlds Consumed by hope But still she has no love to keep With brittle voice And weakened soul I stood in line ‘Cause like a foolish child A fragile spine I once believed Her heart was mine

Dream

Morning ended with a dream On they go, gleam by gleam. Oh dream, oh dream, won’t you come back ‘Cause her mouth spoke passion But my eyes wrote black
