ENDLESS LOVE

My head felt crowded
and there was no room for
feelings in delight
as I was only trying hard
to protect
my heart

I never really dared to
open up the backdoors
of my soul
my building was restricted
still you found your way
through to me

And there was love
And there was love

I couldn't be more candid
through these whirls that
kept on fooling my mind
But you took all
the patience from your world
and slowly entered mine

Then I released my tension
blew it out like
bad cigarette smoke
You made me bloom
and I was filled with bliss
and summer moved in endless love

Endless love....

Life is too short to cling on
find out where you heart belong

Endless love...

Finally I have found
endless love

PHARMACY
(peterson/martinsen)

I don't want to
but still I do

You don't want to
you never will
that's true

I don't understand
but still I see
'cause I have realized
it's just a game between
you and me

And all I can say
And all I can do
is to make you see that
I'm sorry for loving you

I just feel like
hiding away

You just feel like
leaving me

I just don't know how
how to get by

The game is over now
you're no good to me
there's no
use to try

And all I can say
And all I can do
is to make you see that
I'm sorry for loving you

RUNNING BOY
(peterson/brundtland/berge)

He was a boy, maybe 12 years old
he couldn't bear to stay, he just had to go.

He was a restless soul, straining at the leash
needed to move on, needed to be free.

He never looked sad, just had a thoughtful face.
He didn't care about friends, he liked to be alone.

And when the morning came
as the sun would set
he would get right up
so he could run again...

Yes, he loved to run. He could go on all day.
It was the only way to get a grip of place and time.

By leaps and bound, he'd get himself around
he was light as the wind, he almost flew away.

And when the morning came
as the sun would set
he would get right up
so he could run again...

ALPHABET
(peterson/martinsen)

I don't want to live a life pre-set
I want to read every letter
of the alphabet

I want to try
I want to fly
it makes me feel so alive

And I'll climb a tree, I'll chase the storm
and never let my heart be torn
I'll run all night, I'll pass the test
'cause I am sure my heart is blessed

I don't want to fit into a square
I want to remove all boundaries
like they were never there

I want to sing
and be within
it makes me stay so aware

And I'll climb a tree, I'll chase the storm
and never let my heart be torn
I'll run all night, I'll pass the test
'cause I am sure my heart is blessed

HALF-WHOLE
(peterson/martinsen/brundtland/berge)

Irreplaceable
are you
but I can always give support

I can give advice
but you
will always find you own ways

I can hold your hand
but you
will always walk alone

So unbearable
is life
you'll have to serve your own ends

I'll be by your side
still you
will always walk alone

So let it go and forgive
there's so much life to be lived

Always
on your own

You're always on your own

AMYGDALA
(peterson/martinsen)

Since you've been missing in my heart
I've kept searching for another piece
Since you decided to live your life
in a distance that so comfortably unreal

I've tried to give myself away
I've tried so hard to be another
I've tried for long to make you stay
I don't know why I even bothered

And I would have died for you

How could I say I didn't need you
I was just protecting myself
How could I think you didn't lead me
I was following your path in blindness

I saw myself walk by your side
I saw a girl I never knew
Now I'm so tired of this game
this game is always won by you

And I would have died for you

DUO
(peterson/martinsen)

She could go all the way
she'd love to hear him say that
who she was was fine
and all he ever needed in life

She hardly changed her looks
he read her like a book
and though the first few chapters
were a little hard to understand
he held her hand

One and one was still two
you came to me I came to you
bought me flowers, talked for hours
we were meant to be I know

One and one is still two
what would I be without you
another day that fades away
we were meant to be I know

Her head was in a cloud
and he was young, but not too proud
to whisper in her ears
all the thing she'd always longed for

Her goldfish drowned that day
he tried to kiss her tears away
and though her hands were cold
and he was as clumsy as a child
he held her hand

DAMIAN
(peterson/martinsen)

He'd been away for years
she'd never heard
a single word
oh, so inaccessible

When he returned
she heard a melody
so heavenly
oh, so irresistible

And sweetest of all
was to hear him call
her name and all
trapped by a cordless wire

And hardest of all
was to obey the law
and most of all
to follow her heart and her desire

She follows her heart 'cause she knows
to follow her heart where ever she goes

She had considered him
as gone and lost
she'd paid the cost
oh, so unforgettable

So much had changed since then
and now she knew
she'd be torn in two
oh, how inconvenient

And sweetest of all
was to hear him call
her name and all
he lit her heart back on fire

And hardest of all
was to obey the law
and above all
to follow her heart and her desire

She follows her heart 'cause she knows
to follow her heart where ever she goes

SINK
(peterson/martinsen)

as far as I'm concerned
my heart has never yearned
to be in debt to any other

as far as I'm aware
I never held it there
to be displayed and viewed by others

how could I be so blind
to hide behind a wall with faded painting
flaking slowly falling into pieces

so naïve

cause when you give away
you can never ask
to have it in return

as far as I knew then
I could just say where and when
and never put myself in trouble

as far as I had thought
a heart could not be bought
but only found in special moments

how could I be so wild
to leave it out in fall, not concerning future,
sleepless nights and fever blisters

so hard to believe
now easy to see
it should have been for my eyes only

now I know
love will save another day
your dream is never far away

PAST
(peterson/brundtland/martinsen)

Where did they go
the days
we were floating on a boat of laughter

Where did they go
the nights
we were wrapped in the softest cotton

Who stole the freedom
to act and disappear
Where was the beauty lost
or was it ever there

When did we loose track of time

When did they turn
our dreams
and the vision of an easy future

When did time change
once calm
now chased by a wave of worries

Who stole the freedom
to act and disappear
Where was the beauty lost
or was it ever there

We both lost track of time

We trusted in the everlasting beauty of tomorrow
Not thinking of the forthcoming sorrows

MAGIKA
(peterson/brundtland/martinsen)

Hush, little sister
it's time to fly
just relax, let yourself go
into this world of fantasy

Hush, little sister
don't be afraid
let the soft breeze encapture you
and carry you away

Just fly…….away….
just fly….away….from here

Breathe, little sister
try to forget
just let go, let a new world
enter your mind and consciousness

As you fly orbiting in time
You'll see why you are who you are
today
and always…
