bonobo - beachy head
Lying very still
underneath the Sun
Waiting for the cool of
the night to come
I pick up a stone
Press it in my palms
Throw it out to sea
and count wishes
bonobo - days to come
Journey set sail was to leave
Cause I'm only birds & bees
Lose and news and all things be
Sunlight garden low red blossoms
Moon tides of the sea
When struggling for a magic grain
We throw our life to the winds like rain
For goodness sake
Spare your failings and take the ability
To strengthen
No spirit can stimulate all minds
Blossoms of days to come
Blossoms of days to come
Move away from your western guns
Travel towards eastern suns
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
Spirit finds fresh morning and the dew
Of precious things
Hope is a phoenix building wings to fly
And what we wish shall be
Like a breathe of fresh air
Safe and secret powers
That no love can spare
Move away from your western guns
Travel towards eastern suns
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
Move away from your western guns
Travel towards eastern suns
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul 2x
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
bonobo - eyesdown
Hands up
I got my eyes facing down ?
I'll show you where my tears come down
Slowly down
Hands up
I got my eyes facing down
I shudder when my tears come down ?
So slow down
So slow down
Suddenly my tears come down?
Slowly down
Hands up ?I got my eyes facing down
I'll show you where my tears come down ?
Slowly down
So slowly down
Hands up ?I got my eyes facing down
I?'ll show you where my tears come down
Slowly down
Hands up ?I got my eyes facing down ?
I shudder when my tears come down ?
So slowly down?
So slow down
bonobo - if you stayed over
If it's on it's on for good [yeah]
'Coz when it's gone it's gone for good
Let me tell you...
And if you stayed over
You know we would, if we could
Put it back together
Make it good
If I... [2x]
Breathe in the future, breathe out the past [yeah]
Savour this moment as long as it lasts
Let me tell you...
Put it back, piece by piece
If you stayed over I'd make it so sweet
I'd make you remember, baby
From your head to your feet
And if you go now, baby
We'll never know how it ends
Make it good [4x]
bonobo - nightlite
Can I play in time?
proof keep the whole
we trip these awards
as may call these, yes we do
peace for geography, in every single way
come let the night will a night to love
Can I play in time?
proof keep the whole
we trip these awards
as may call these, yes we do
peace for geography, in every single way
come let the night will a night to love
The time will come and it will show
the time went away and really sore
can you depend on things that help when you're in need?
and they got problems, too, though they're home
your parents love you, have that showed
keep it in your mind, just one thing to know
bonobo - stay the same
A night train
Midnight
Bags gathered round my feet
Possessions
Some lessened
To carry with me
Heavy and
Soothing
Like a gentle symphony
I rest my
Head right
Back upon my seat
It's hard
And cold though
The best thing for me
This train is
Movin'
But my heart is stationery
Seasons change
it won't ever be the same
I'm hopin'
I will stay the same
Reasons strange
Why we always play these games
I left it
With you
A note that was discreet
I made sure
I put it
Upon the cellar door
It's hanging, hoping
Will you read it while I weep
Last time
The last time
It flickers through me
So vivid
It rushes
From my head down to my feet
We're laughing, joking
Through (?) to my defeat
Seasons change
It will never be the same
I'm hopin'
I wïll stay the same
Reasons strange
Why we always play these games
bonobo - tell me how you feel
Tell me how you feel [5x]
(Chorus)
I'm very fast or slow
Just soft and low
The same as when you
Tell me how you feel [2x]
(Repeat chorus 1x)
Tell me how you feel [3x]
(Repeat chorus 4x)
bonobo - the keeper
I know she said
That I don't need her
Cause everytime I call
She's sitting sweeter.
I know she said
To get near her
But I'm feeling cold
And I must leave her.
Sat down here with my head hung down
And I just seem to find
A bit of peace
A bit love
A bit of something left behind.
Sat down here less intentions
Nothing said, nothing lied
A bit of peace
A bit of love
A bit of something left inside.
My heart's content
I say that to please her
Happiness is on a face
It's not mine that greets her.
Only my disgrace
To admit I need her
But we all fall from grace
Dust me down and keep her.
Sat down here with my head hung down
And I just seem to find
A bit of peace
A bit love
A bit of something left behind.
Sat down here less intentions
Nothing said, nothing lied
A bit of peace
A bit of love
A bit of something left inside.
We shall go on in this embrace, cause we can go living this way.
We'll be like one, cause we can go on living this way.
bonobo - walk in the sky
They walk in the sky
So near and so high
They're stopping for none
And when the day's done
They agree that the sea
Is the best place to be
Wondrously free
They live happily
They know from the past
Life simply doesn't last
So they live for today
For tomorrow they may
Not be able to walk in the skies
Sun slips into horizon
Moon reaches for the stars
Music is the healer
No matter who you are
No matter who you are...
They walk in the sky
So near and so high
They're stopping for none
And when the day's done
They agree that the sea
Is the best place to be
Wondrously free
They live happily
They know from the past
Life simply doesn't last
So they live for today
For tomorrow they may
Not be able to walk in the skies
Sun slips into horizon
Moon reaches for the stars
Music is the healer
No matter who you are
No matter who you are...
Sun slips into horizon
Moon reaches for the stars
Music is the healer
No matter who you are
No matter who you are...
bonobo - first fires
How do you see it?
The dreams gone
Faded fires, moving on
Why do you need it?
The waves come
Over you, to undertow
Honestly I can?t believe it?s burning again
Like the first fire
Run from the fences, you don?t have to pretend
In the first fire
And if you can find it, don?t let go
Hold it tight, keep it close
Don?t even fight it, the leaves fall
Over me, for every blow
Honestly, I can?t believe it?s burning again
Like the first fires
Run from fences, you don?t have to pretend
First fires
And all the memories are calling my name
For the first fire
Honestly, I can?t believe it?s burning again
Like the first fires
Like the first fires
Honestly, I can?t believe it?s burning again
Honestly, I can?t believe it?s burning again
Like the first fires
