- Lyrics -
The Snowfall
Sprinkles hope and light
Crystals in a sparkling flight
Snowbirds
Flashing up into the air
Sweet, soft, without fear
Rustling down
In winter wind
Waiting for the Joy of Spring
Snowfall ...

The Photo is a meeting in Blue. Harpa Reykjavik, Island.

We will float through the clouds
I look beyond me
And i see you there
The thought is real
So Complete
There is silence
A breath from the Wind
From a distance
I can see

Sketch In Blue. Feat. Debra Buesking and Oddrun Eikli

tired

Alone together or together alone, in its many meanings. It is a piece mainly in major but with moments of melancholy, between hope and sadness. About existential solitude but also about brotherhood, the connection between individuals.
In many parts a series of 2 very long, slow, and therefore difficult, violin notes beautifully played for me by dear @rosindust. Here the other collaborations with Tatiana: soundcloud.com/francescocartocci/sets/grazie-tatiana

The painting: Lucian Freud, Ib and her husband, 1992.

Composition and all arrangements: Francesco Cartocci

Lyrics:
Maybe one day I’ll go sailing
Out on the big blue sea
Where the fishes swim around, going up and down 
Like a fish …….was meant to be

What a lovely way to spend the day 
Just being out there afloat 
And oh what joy to shout ahoy
From the deck of a sailing boat 

Sailing along in the sunshine
Just me and the ocean breeze
Then across the bay I’d make my way
Back home in time for tea

Steady as you go
Steady as you go   

Maybe one day I’ll go sailing 
Out on the big blue sea 
Along the coast I could make the most
Of the nautical scenery

What a lovely way to spend a day 
Just being out there afloat 
See a smugglers cove or a treasure trove
From the deck of a sailing boat 

Sailing along in the sunshine
Just me and the ocean breeze
Then across the bay I’d make my way
Back home in time for tea

Steady as you go
Steady as you go

Steady As You Go
