1.	A Winter Tale 03:16	lyrics
Outside in the pouring rain, the distant world was grey by the fireplace his boots, in the house among the holly woods he put his ear on the shell in his hand, then his sleepy head spoke ”…the sails drank the wind like milk, the moon swam as light as silk…” and through the mist of the valley at his feet a mountain lake opened its eyelid
2.	A Good Reason To Go 04:22	lyrics
No reason to stay is a good reason to go The last few words to say, this is an epilogue When it rains look for the rainbow and when it's dark look for the star No reason to stay (stay if you may ) is a good reason to go (go ‘cause you must) No more words to say (stay if you may ) this is an epilogue
3.	Girls Love Poets 04:31	lyrics
Girls love poets, lust and romance Paul Verlaine, Charles Baudelaire The freethinker Lucifer Girls love poets, willing learners Deep in the night they dwell alone The moonlight shakes them to the bone Girl love poets and tender moments When soon they're bound to a childhood ground Huge yet lost and no more found Girls love poets and theatre goers Storytellers you and me Just like honey to the bee Girls love poets, girls love crooners Who bite and itch their juicy peach Cool yet gone and out of reach They wear their heart on their skin But cannot hide the hell within
4.	Shut Not Your Door 05:05	lyrics
Shine on my love, my love shine on Shine on my love, cast your dancing shadow Shine on my love, my love shine on Shine on my love, shut not your door It's alright (it can't go wrong) It's alright (it can't go wrong) shut not your door It's alright (it can't go wrong) It's alright (it can't go wrong) shut not your door shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
5.	Silent Calling 03:48	lyrics
I know why captive birds sing cage or prison, love or reason, twins in my vision and I know why silent boys dream of the shanty dandy of the Magdalen the night I met the balladeer was insincere far or near I just couldn’t make clear the smoke of my cigarette, hallucinated acrobat imaginary smile that made me smile, surprised to be alive I know what lies are for but strange to tell these secret lines of winged words of light wasted days and serenades for passing strangers the sin was mine, I did not understand it was morbid indecency, boulevards and vaudeville the green hour, the unreal I adore, the unborn star child
6.	Malice 04:46	lyrics
A virgin love forever, her soft voice like a feather this tale of us a thread of grey, a floating leaf up in the air I kiss her at the heavens’ gate, the starless night is yet so late like a swan she bends her neck, opens her blouse, I find the crack our daring lips, my fingertips, her alabaster curvy hips arsenal of arts where malice leaves its marks her heart so near, the beats I hear, her cranny nook, I dare not look naked in this hush, I know she veils her blush my beating blood rushing like mad, gone is now the last restraint not to blame, not innocent, I’m lost, my mood swings she blows my mind and fucks my brain I’m a branch in the flame, burned by desire, my life is on fire my teen queen rules in my daydream her female body is my duty, she moves in beauty
7.	Out Of The Blue 04:09	lyrics
Placid clouds of vapour wool, slowly rising April moon just too fool not to be cool, deja-vu, out of the blue stars like pretty little girls dangling their legs and curls under shades of blooming grapes, a mouthful of rhymes, a hunger for life a quite unnecessary lair, daydream on a rocking chair follow me so far away, my rambling thoughts won’t let me stay a pocketful of poetry, a transparent epiphany a thunderstorm and in the middle the grave and the cradle, the thread and the needle I feel it deep under my skin, sometimes I wish I had wings heartily and softly and tenderly, will you carry me? Will you shelter me?
8.	The Boy Ecstatic 07:10	lyrics
I’ve seen the invisible and the undone, the promised dawn at sundown I’ve seen redemption after crime, the promised Spring in wintertime I’ve seen the sky growing dark, the moon bending her arc I’ve heard clarions and larks in wet marshes, in night sparks I’ve seen lizards and rattlesnakes, pebbles and ash-flakes a dragonfly, a unicorn, a flying fish, a jackal I’ve seen caged beasts freed, locomotives at full speed I’ve seen kites in the sunlight, flames in the twilight I’ve seen the wide open ocean, the planets in motion the simple soul, the heart of gold, the silly vanity of all I’ve read Melville and I’ve dreamt of a vessel sailing bound to the lighthouse island somewhere in Britain or Ireland I’ve read the bloody Macbeth and the Paradise Lost I’ve seen seven sisters, an hour-glass and clockworks I’ve learnt algebra and geometries and I’ve dreamt of my metamorphosis my nerves like roots sucking blood from every vein I’ve seen the tracks of cranes on the pond’s clay I’ve learnt the language of sands and its alphabet of gold I’ve encompassed the whole world its maps and kingdoms, safe and sound from sorrows I’ve seen demons and scarecrows I’ve smelled the soil after the rain and I’ve felt a strange kind of pain I’ve met a man without a name in a bruise-like sort of shame I’ve heard a call for perfection and its obvious rejection I’ve seen a red carnation, doom and salvation I’ve read revolution as love in reverse I’ve heard a wailing saxophone and a dreaming verse A hatful of silence, a handful of solitude the wisdom of second chance, moments of beatitude I’ve learnt to see the unapparent wind when trees are shaken and leaves are trembling I’ve dreamt of the child that is father of the man a firefly in the palm of his hand the darkness torn asunder, fetching it to me with full wonder I’ve dreamt of Endymion under the old oak and a cripple dancer in a ragged cloak I’ve heard questions for philosophers, puzzles solved with ease I’ve learnt that wars begin in the minds of men so it’s there we should defend peace Is it man that is God-made or God that is man-made? brother with sly brother, mother with queer mother whispering to each other Lunatic, amnesiac, insomniac Ecstatic, magnetic, maniac
9.	Nubian Sun 04:50	lyrics
Immaculate shirt I have none, but glowing eyes like burning coal clouds sail along, birdsong, still the riddle remains unsolved led astray, the world dies away homesick and lost when I need you most, stardust like falling snow don’t loosen your hand, dreamland, I’m a drowning man clung to a straw now warm me Nubian sun
