Nummer 0: 

Yeah I’m a singer love to sing straight from my heart, yeah I’m a singer love to sing straight from my heart. As a baby child, I liked singing in my bed. My father told me “hush now”. “hush now baby”. Never wanted to sing in a group, ‘cause I wanted to sing my own song, straight from the heart, straight from the heart. straight from the heart, straight from the heart.

Didn’t know that I would ever end up on stage. Didn’t even occur to me, that I could make singing my living. Till I fell in love for the first time when I was 15 years old, and I bought my first guitar. My first red guitar.

I Became a bluessinger, playing for my fellow boys and girls in school. And the girls fell in love with me. I didn’t know why. Started painting too yes. As a mad man. And the girls in my class they fell in love with me. I didn’t know why.

guitar

Now I’m 44 years old or young, ‘cause life is just a day. And I’m singing and shouting. Singing my, Feeling my, heart out.

guitar

That’s the way it goes. Life is like a river with no name.

Nummer 1: I hear the whispers, of the fine young man.
Doesn’t dare to express himself, doesn’t know where to begin.
Still walking in circles, all those old odd fears.
So here he is whispering, can’t hear him bark the breeze.
And he’s so lonely, walking on the perfect path.
And he’s so alone, walking the same road.

Circle up, treat ourselves as a team.
We all got these troubles, ‘cause life can be a mean dream.
All the pain that we’re carrying, in our bones every day.
Could we treat it as the past, not the future way?
_-_IV_-_yeah I’m so hungry, 3 _-_1_-_ I’m so hungry,
_-_IV_-_I’m so hungry, _-_1_-_for a brand new road.
(Korte solo)
_-_IV_-_yeah fly now mama , I wanna fly _-_1_-_
_-_IV_-_fly my mama , I wanna dy _-_1_-_yyyyyyyy

All those magical moments, are working together.
We can survive these tricks, we can come a little further.
Get that _-_IV_ circle undone! And put your _-_1_- feet somewhere else.
‘Cause if you _IV_ keep on walking* I’m gonna _1_ burn!…come on roll it..aaahhhhhrhrh aahrhrh aasrhhr yeaah come on
(Lange solohihvvj
You’re now picking the wall life full of bliss, you’re now picking the wall full of bliss.
I don’t have you in a kiss, thinking of you, be gone.
(Solo daarna eind change naar mineur)
Feel the hand full of bliss, touches on your shoulder. Feel the hand full of bliss, touches on your shoulder.i

Feel the dancing fingers, dance upon your back. Feel the dancing fingers, dancing on your neck, dancing on your back.

All the tension that was on you, now sure is gone. All the tension that was on you, now sure is gone.

Hear the blissful creatures, feed on your fear.
As you touch Mama Earth, you feel back the natures hurt.

<<Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it Feel it

As you walk on to the other station, ‘cause there ain’t no train that rides your way.
No car, no bicycle, we gotta walk and fall and stand up slow
you gotta walk and fall and stand up slow
Can you Feel it Feel it, Can you Feel it Feel it, Can you Feel it Feel it, Can you Feel it Feel it
come on mister guitar man

I feel the breezes who blow the earth.
I feel the breezes who blow the earth. woo
They refresh my breath.
Boreal Forest. Boreal Forest.
Refreshes my breath.
Can you Feel it Feel it, Can you Feel it Feel it, Can you Feel it Feel it, Can you Feel it can you Feel it

So naked we breathe the air, when we’re first born, and draw the first of breaths.
Without that, small as it might feel, the babies of today won’t draw their first of, won’t draw their first of, won’t draw their first of , breaths.
It might mean last years, it might mean last cries, but the school of life can be a paradise.
Can you Feel? Can you Feel___it?

nummer 2:

I know you try to make me smile
But you can not reach me right now
I am so tensioned that I do not know how to get back to my inner child
Following the path that I so long walked,
circles in the sand, my footsteps here we go again

Suffering all the laughter, what I so long lost
But that is just a school of life
That’s the way it goes
All those cicrcles in the sand
Where I tread again I can count it out 123
Here I go another round

Who am I to talk like this
Have I got the wisdom in my head
or I just read some book
Here I go again

Following all those losers who wrote them books
Who are walking always on those lines
I want to fall in between the lines

wait a minute

Take me one more time
Just one more round
Take me one more line further down the road
Walking circles all the time 1x
We stick around together
Walking circles all the time 2x
Smiling circle clowns 9x

[hey darling you’re the light of my love yeah:]4x
I met you when I walked on my rubber boots, i had to play for Harry Muskee. I know he was my favourite bluesman. He sang the blues right straight from his heart. It was I guess on Curacao. where I met you baby, baby blue. Your tattoo it shone right to me. I had to kiss it. That brought a little misery. Baby, now you’re still in my life. And you are I mean the light of my life.
[hey baby/hey sugar you’re the light of/in my love:]4x

Hey you’re the light ever since I saw you. I didn’t know, WHO_ you were. I found out we’re the same soul, in different bodies. You’re the sun and and the moon. And I’m the sun soon. As soon as you turn around, I’m there to catch you in my arms.

and i free your mind, once again.
i free your mind, once again
I hear Marleys chains. Do you hear them too?
I hear Marleys chains. Do you hear them too?
I wonder why, i feel so lost, in this paradise.
I’ve had my food and my water since i was born. So what should I complain? So what should I complain?
I tumble, from the steps, that i just climbed. I thought I’d never fall down, never fall out again.
But i do it now, and i can’t see why. Was it just the lazyness of not minding my steps.
When do i give up? Is there a way, to end this game?
How many more roads, do I have to fall tumbling down? Roll tumbling. Tumbling down_-_

nr.5

I’m dressed in white, but that doesn’t mean to much. What does it say about my dreams? What does it mean to you? Does it mean to me?

I wrestle in this world, with all the boys and girls. Who am I in all this trouble? I see myself in clothes, that I didn’t pick. What’s hip right now, I don’t care.

I’m a mean machine. I love to sing the blues. I love to sing it all night long.

Shadows that are falling, longer still. It’s the end of the day. ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, round and round

‘Round and ‘round the film goes, ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, round and round

I wake up and see, the difference between you and me. And I can’t deny my sweetest.

I embrace your soul, your skin touches mine. The coffeine, like the colour.

I am so yellow now. My blood keeps boiling now. Feel like a swifter. A tornado, dissolving with you. I can’t deny, my feelings are true.

‘Round and ‘round the film goes, Round round the movie goes, Round round the reel it goes, reelin’ and a rockin’.

Round and round the reel it goes. The movie still goes on. Got it brighter now.

solo

Round and round the film goes. I know and it shows, who you are, who we are today.

Yesterday the same old blues, I don’t know what we gotta lose. I sing my song out of my soul and I know.

‘Round and ‘round the film goes, ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, ‘Round and ‘round the film goes, round and round and round
round and round and round, round and round and round, round and round and round, round and round and round
and round my boy and round my girl and round my man and round my woman, and my round my grandmama. Thank you all, Thank you All.

I know that I’m blind, I know that the word’s a lie. Those 4, 5 letter words. These more or 5 letter words.
And i know that i’m good, even though i call it bad. I got my lungs screaming at you. I got the air from inside, from outside in. I got the roll model for you, and it’s love.

solo

Broken hearted, now ain’t we all? But we got to mend it together, working together. Flying away. Spread your wings, i want your love to fly.
Spread your wings, i want your love to fly.

in the morning, waving goodbye to you baby.
and then a rising, of the healing winds.
I shatter my long, used to be.
a picture that i carried so long.
A hurting flame, in which I saw myself.
Dissolving all, in one.
Make the rainbow the knight in shining armour.
Picture yourself, from up above.
How you feel peace, in the deepest grounds.
Be connected to the light deep down inside baby.
Right on time I see, It’s all way back home.
I’m in the sun, in the sunlight, rolling,
rolling, rolling,
rolling lordy, rolling right now.
Are you ready, are you ready, to roll all night long? Find yourself on the floor. A heart that’s softly explaining,
why the sun is brighter here, why the sun is brighter here.
If I see, it’s, just a name. And my wings sail by ,
in the ocean of love.
I let my wings sail, on the ocean , in the ocean, of love. If I see to me in God. In the ocean baby, in the ocean of love.
I don’t want the back door, And i don’t wanna roll. Feeling love,

in the ocean, in the ocean of love.

rolling lordy, rolling the light.

in the ocean, in the ocean of love. Put your arms around me baby.
