Will You Be My Fantasy?

Stayed at, stayed at home,
Told her on the phone,
Did I, did I hurt your heart?
I didn’t mean it.
No message after tone,
I’ll spend time on my own,
It’s good to be alone,
But then I’m sinking low.
I am lost and it’s hard for me to see,
But when we talk, then you put my mind at ease,
Warmest heart, maybe it’s our destiny,
We’re so young, Will You Be My Fantasy?
Work it, work it out,
Tell her I’m so proud,
Send her, send flowers to her house,
Cus I mean it.
And I just want you close,
With the things I love the most,
Allowed the space to grow,
Wish there’s somewhere we could go.
I am lost and it’s hard for me to see,
But when we talk, girl you put my mind at ease,
Warmest heart, maybe it’s our destiny,
We’re so young, Will You Be My Fantasy?

I wrote a sad song

I wrote a sad song and I thought it was my best,
But nobody wanted to listen,
Don’t know the words yet but I feel them in my chest,
I’ll figure them out with more time.
Can you come over and help me finish up what I started?
Need your help got all of this work to do,
But as we get closer to making something good enough to be heard,
You play a plaintive song which has the same tune.
With every song that cycles round and round my head,
I don’t know if I should listen to them,
The feeling’s gone and they’re just sounds and chords instead,
Still, I’m putting them all up online.
Don’t need the exposure, you need to feel and just enjoy the moment,
So why d’you always have such a point to prove?
It’s all in the process, it doesn’t matter if you lose your focus,
Writing better songs with this point of view.
I wrote a sad song and I thought it was my best,
But nobody wanted to listen.

CLOUD 9

Just finished work, I’m really stuck, and I can’t stop waiting for the sound,
Of a knock knock knock, all outta luck, gotta watch the clock,
When you turn up you look so pretty, I’ll put my best shoes on tonight,
Let’s catch the bus, it drops us off, we head inside the club.
Another day, I’m always hoping,
Plan my escape but these walls keep caving in,
Found a way to feel less lonely,
And I don’t wanna come down.
So won’t you make the climb up to CLOUD 9 in your mind and be free?
Cus when you’re most alive the backbeat’s all the time you need.
Your turn to speak, say time to leave, these dancing feet better touch the ground,
It’s hard to see, my head’s spinning, so you take the lead,
Out of the disco to the city, we go on walking through the night,
Nothing to fear, nowhere to be, love your company.
Another day and I’m still hoping,
Planned my escape but these walls keep caving in,
Found a way to feel less lonely,
I don’t ever wanna come down.
So won’t you make the climb up to CLOUD 9 in your mind and be free?
Cus when you’re most alive the backbeat’s all the time you need,
Just check yourself don’t attack the rhythm, weave your magic spell, good vibes you’re a grooving machine,
As you enjoy the ride the music takes you higher and higher.
Sky high, the beat's behind you, groove’s so tight, the feeling’s right,
Slinking funky bassline, we’ll dance the dance of life tonight,
Here’s the place to be, such ecstasy, such harmony,
Singing to sweet melodies of music, let it set you free.
Make the climb up to CLOUD 9 in your mind and be free,
Cus when you’re most alive the backbeat’s all the time you need,
Just check yourself don’t attack the rhythm, weave your magic spell, good vibes you’re a grooving machine,
As you enjoy the ride the music takes you higher and higher.

Yung Samurai

There are things I’ve done, things that I’ve done wrong,
I’ve lied and I’ve made bad mistakes,
And all the things I want, enshrined when I was young,
Are just ideas that I still want anyway.
I only wanna be back in 2003,
Playing ‘The Mark of Kri’, but I can’t have my way,
Just listen to me say how I’m so graceful and free,
When I’m none of these things, I’ll decide to…
Try to hold on to the moment,
Precious time is gone, I hope to…
See the Samurai run,
See the Samurai Yung.
Show me Shogun son, where have I gone wrong?
Was I trying too hard to earn my place?
In a day or two, when my memory calms,
Is it you that I will turn to face?
Take me back to my people, take me back when I was me,
I hate listening when I can’t have my way,
Making lots of money, show me diamond, golden rings,
When I’m none of these things, I’ll decide to…
Try to hold on to the moment,
Precious time is gone, I hope to…
See the Samurai run,
See the Samurai Yung.
Try to hold on to the moment,
Precious time is gone, I’m hoping,
See the Samurai run,
See the Samurai Yung.
Try to hold on to the moment,
Precious time is gone, I hope to…
See the Samurai run,
See the Samurai Yung.

Don’t wanna fight, I’m tired of pretending,
So much time, haven’t seen you since December,
Days turn to weeks but we’re getting close,
If in doubt remember these words:
When nothing is working,
And you’ve given up all hope,
Just one thing is certain,
i’m the one who loves you most.
Like a light, you shine in the darkness,
Shining bright, you are my guide, you’re my compass,
We don’t have to be rich to be happy now,
That’s not what true success is about.
So when nothing is working,
And you’ve given up all hope,
Just one thing is certain,
i’m the one who loves you most.
