Que c'est beau! Une superbe  délicate chanson!

sublime.... charmant.... le texte est adorable, la mélodie enveloppante et délicate, ta voix gracieuse et ravissante... quel merveilleux moment de douceur, merci Alexis.

Such an absolute beauty.. Thank you very much for sharing this masterpiece!

Des accents cap verdiens dans ces guitares nylons… c’est un rétroviseur tourné vers l’avant cette chanson. Plus je l’écoute plus je l’aime

I’ve traveled the seas and I’ve wandered the lands
I’ve sprinkled the seeds grown into these grass
Encircled by peaks I’m unable to pass
I feel like a stone being crushed into sand

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

I came to a town where nobody smiled 
And tilted my hat to a woman and child
I offered support but the people were shy
Their soil ablaze and the desert is dry

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Cloak your skin from the sun fornicate with the night
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
Overcome by the heat and it messed with my mind
My shoulders are frail but I do what I can
These are the deeds of a desperate man

You can run all you want you can cower and hide
Fall asleep with a gun and wake up with a knife
The Devil has come to ruin our plans 
These are the deeds of a desperate man
You can dig all you want I’ve got nothing to hide
No blood on my hands no guilt in my mind
My body is old but I give what I can
These are the deeds of  a desperate man

Desperate Man

The search for a more peaceful existence away from the commotion, corrupt or not, of society.

Let Me Go

My Island

A Thousand Wishes

A soundscape evoking anxiousness and uncertain territories while being able to find the confidence to embrace the journey.

Shimkari

The ancient mystery about Men & Women, still trying to figure each other out!

Good luck w that xD

Woman, stop asking me these difficult questions

Télégramme

Oh j'aimerais te revoir
Toi dont les yeux ont brillé
Dans la pénombre du soir
Comme la paille et l'espoir
Dans nos âmes abimées
Oh j'aimerais te revoir
Pour simplement raviver
Ce moment dans nos mémoires
Au détour de cette allée

Comme rêve evanescent
Comme euphorie transitoire
Nos vies se dispersent au vent
Et c'était il y a longtemps
Qu'on s'est perdu à la gare
Comme rêve evanescent
Qui brûlait dans ma guitare
Et dans tes yeux scintillants
De s'en remettre au hasard

Emportés dans d'autres villes
Où d'arrivée en départ
Chacun déroule son fil
Les souvenirs en exil
Remisés dans les tiroirs
Disparaissent sous la pile
Emportés dans d'autres villes
Quand les chemins se séparent
Et les illusions s'effilent

On est désormais si loin
Etrangers et sans savoir
Ce que l'autre ailleurs devient
Effacés des répertoires
De plus de signe à plus rien
Entre nous des territoires
On est désormais si loin
Mais j'aimerais te revoir
Et savoir que tu vas bien

I SAW THAT SMILE WHEN YOU GOT OFF THAT TRAIN
WERE THOSE TEARS OF JOY? 
OR DROPS FROM THE RAIN?
COME HERE YOU LITTLE ANGEL
I'LL HOLD BACK YOUR PAIN

ITS BEEN SO LONG
SINCE I HELD YOU IN MY ARMS
AWKWARD, DIFFERENT NOW
TIME’S NEEDLE WILL DARN

IM JUST A CAST AWAY
ON THIS ISLAND IN THE SEA
YOU KNOW I WILL HEAL YOU

STARING FOR A TIME OFF INTO SPACE
GLOWING SHEEN OFF YOUR SLEEPING FACE
YOU POOR THING, YOU’VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT

HILLS THAT ARE GREENER AND TURQOISE SEAS
FLOWERS EVERY NIGHT
BABY CATCH UP ON SOME SLEEP
ILL RUB YOUR BACK WHILE YOU LAY THERE AND DREAM

ITS BEEN SO WRONG
FOR ALL THIS TIME AWAY
FROM ONE ANOTHERS TOUCH
THE WAY YOU SAY MY NAME

IM HERE FOR YOU NOW
BABY I MEAN FOR KEEPS
YOU KNOW I WILL ALWAYS HOLD YOU

YOU ARE THE ONE AND ONLY THING 
MY STARS, MY SUN, MY MOON
MY HEART HOLDS YOUR KEY
LORD GIVE ME STRENGTH AS I GET DOWN ON A KNEE

TRAVELING THROUGH THIS LIFE WITH YOU
UPS AND DOWNS, WOW WE MADE IT THROUGH!
THE KIDS ARE LONG GONE
IT LOOKS LIKE JUST ME AND YOU

WE HAVE ALWAYS PUT EACH ONE FIRST
THATS WHY AS YOU LAY DYING
OH, GOD PLEASE! IT HURTS
JUST A SECOND CHANCE!
OH GOD PLEASE

THE RAVEN FLEW

OOH OHH OHH OHH 

I HOLD NEAR
YOUR VOICE I STILL CAN HEAR
HELPING ME THROUGH TROUBLED TIMES 
SEE YOU SOON GIRL  I STAND IN LINE.

Promise
