Power To The Fools | by C. Norby The awkwardness of a skinny long legged school girl With the beauty of a swan Slamming doors when the grown-ups worry ‘bout her Just wanna smoke away the dawn Skies full of clouds - Turbulence That’ll smash her visions to the ground The Einstein-ness of a sixteen year old lady Versus purity of youth Gives up on the “wasted souls” around her Gonna tell the world the truth Freestyle in Space - No dear mum - No embrace Roads paved with stones That will shake her mind and body to the bones I treasure those days The little scar on my face I worship my wounds Cause today I play by own rules Power to the fools The artificial brightness glows like Diamonds Like Lucys in the Sky A shortcut to the land of 5 dimensions You know, she’s much too tough to cry Off-piste in space - Yellow mist - Purple haze Dangerous Zone that will shake your mind and body to the bone I treasure those days The little scar on my face I worship my wounds Cause today I play myself I treasure my pain The dearest trophy I gained I worship my wounds Cause today I use my own tools Power to the fools A Heart Is Not A Toy | by C. Norby A heart is not a toy Made for fun or joy Or something children play with It's purely flesh and blood Truly made by God A fountainhead of innocence and dreams A heart is not a lump, Plain muscle or a pump For simple circulation She's the purest gold And if she once turns cold It will be reflected where she goes Do you cry? Do you laugh? Are you whole? Are you half? Has anybody torn your wings apart? Did you sing summer songs On those cold winter morns? Whom do you tell your History, old Heart? A heart is not a toy A double faced decoy Working undercover She's fragile and naive Doesn't smell the thief Until he is dancing through her door Do you cry? Do you laugh? Are you whole? Are you half? Has anybody torn your wings apart? Did you shout in the field Did your scars ever heal? Whom do you tell your history, old Heart? Your private pains and victories, old Heart?
Leaving Town For The Weekend | by C. Norby I´ve got a fancy flat - that kind some people´d die for A Bohemienne with a cat - I live the life I´ve cried for But what a bore to sit alone and watch the lovers holding hands I´ve got the finest view in town I look at squares and towers But now I pull my curtains down and give away my flowers Cause today I want to flee from this city I´m searching one place - I look for one face: I´m leaving town for the weekend To where grass is greener and air is cleaner And you are around I pack my bags and my daydream I´ll go any Friday - I´ll sing on the highway Till you hear the sound I´m not cool with neon lit skies or Coma cats with goo-goo eyes The urge to leave comes alive There´s no such a thing as love in its spring I found my thrill - across the bridge Beyond the hill - the sweetest itch I´ll be travelling miles I´m leaving town for the weekend Have a break from the mainstream And wake up with my daydream And see the new sun arise I´m leaving town for my lifetime With my soul in a suitcase A smile on my new face To meet Life on a new ground First Conversation | by C. Norby If you could speak would you describe where you´ve been The world you came from ? Do the babies fall from stars above Or are they chemical results of love ? Were you meant for me As I was meant for you ? And could you tell us where you journey began On a spirit planet? Are you a sacret gift in flesh and blood Carried by the thought of God ? Did He call for you as He once called for me? Your first reply is an everlasting smile My breathing child - I am breathless by surprise We get wiser through the brain But somehow wiser through the pain I just believe in you as you believe in me. How did you find us - Did you choose from a list A "Parents Yellow Pages" ? Or did we meet as angels in a dream Or were you just the strongest in the stream Did you reappear from Heaven somewhere near ? Your precious little face holds that secret I don´t care - Now you´re here!! Here's To Life | by Butler & Molinary No complains and no regrets I still believe in chasing dreams and placing bets Cause all I´ve learned is what you give is what you get So give it all you´ve got I had my share I drank my fill And even though I´m satisfied I´m hungry still To see what´s down another road beyond that hill And do it all again So here´s to Life And all the joy it brings So here´s to Life To dreamers and their dream Funny how the time just flies A love can go from warm helloes to sad goodbyes And leave you with a memory you memorize Just to keep your winter warm Cause there´s no yes in yesterday Or who knows what tomorrow brings or takes away As long as I am in the game I wanna play For Life, for laughs and for love So here´s to Life... Kyrie II | by C. Norby & L. Danielsson Du titter på mig från en bild Dina ögon var så blå dom som tänt mig I mina sinnan är du kvar Jag tänker ofta på vad som hänt dig Den dag när sommarn förde bort dig Hördes ingen röst Fåglar sjunger igen Det ger mig ingen tröst Jag bränner minnen med din bild Din kärlek var min eld röd som lågan Kände tvekan i din blick Men aldrig fick jag svar på min fråga Den dag när sommarn förde bort dig Hördes ingen röst Fåglar sjunger igen Det ger mig ingen tröst |
