Sitting at the beach At night Where the fire keeps you company When all the sailors have gone to bed Where the sea sings its song And it makes you forget About the pain and the horror The others went through The reason they’ve gone to bed And now only there’s you Staring blankly at your hourglass Knowing life well enough to say That it doesn’t spare any It’s going to take you in its sway Sitting at the beach At night Where the sand tickles your feet Teasing you like an old lover Where the wind cools you down While the heat makes you hover You force this happy smile at first Because tickling should be funny but then again there are  tears Why did you leave me, honey These yellow stains they went away And so did your little freckle But I have to stop wondering And I really shouldn't heckle Sitting at the beach At night Where the stars keep on staring No matter where your beach might be They don’t make you do but realise How important are we? My lover has gone and I will have pain But these bright spots are infinite And I am just this little stain So what is there to do for me In this endless tree of time As this small and lonely chloroplast I’ll keep on trying to be fine

Chloroplast
I don’t need to discover your seas from the inside I don’t need to seek all the fish that hide I don’t need to stay in your waters till I drown I don’t need to look together at the sun falling down All I want is to feel your temperature with the tip of my toe so I can fall asleep and dream about your flow

Wet feet
Look at the sky and now look at me Like those wonderful planets, is that how you want to be? They might be magnificent but they keep doing the same They circle around with fun neither shame Together we can break such a routine Life can be better than it sometimes may seem All you have to do is accept the good parts Don’t resist, but enjoy this assembling of hearts Look at the sea and now look at me Like these glimmering waves, is that how you want to be? They grow and they grow but they die at the shore Growing seems to be all that they are living for Now learning is good but what is life without pleasure For just one night you could be my loved treasure I might be different from all you know and all you’ll ever see But doesn’t that make you realise how special this could be Look at the sand around us and now look at me This actually is how I would like us to be Close together at the most precious place Evermore near the sea, the sky and your gorgeous face I don’t expect us to live forever here But please don’t let my whole wish end up in a tear Now please stop my longing and come oh so close Together we will be like a blooming rose
