Moving Forward is the first track from the album Part Of The Whole. Written as a mantra for moving on from dark times and trusting in the journey you find yourself on.

Moving Forward (Part 1: Part Of The Whole)

doodles with an original reel (how many fiddles is too many fiddles?)

The Lost Reel

My body holds the answer to the mystery of being born
My memories tell the stories of raising a kiddo under the rainbow
My heart ache reveals the secret tales of the mistakes it takes
in love

But things will come, and when they come one day
I'll learn the easy life the hard way

My shadow throws a darkness on the milestones that I've passed in my past
My soul mate, what a tragic fate, you see my soul don't wait
not for anyone no more

'Cause things will come, and when they come one day
I'll learn the easy life
I'll learn to take each strife
Take things as they come cause when they do come one day
Life will come along, good or bad, either way
I gotta take control of the calm in the middle
when the storm unfolds

Better to be safe then, sorry, I'm so wrong

Take things as they come, 'cause when they do come one day
life will come along, good or bad, either way
I gotta take control of the calm in the middle of
life's storm

Nobody Like You is the second release from my current project, 'Part Of The Whole'. This one nods to the old-school soul and motown sound while reminiscing about a lost love.

Lyrics
It’s been a long day, I don’t know how it all came to this
We shared a moment so drenched deep in bliss
Nobody loved me like you

I lost my way, since I’d found it in love’s sweet embrace
I always knew your dreams would claim first place
But nobody knew me like you

Well everything changed, and you took the blame
We parted one day, with a sigh
But I keep seeing your face, am I losing my mind?
Still can’t say goodbye.

Memories still play, all that’s left now of love’s last embrace
It’s hard to walk away in tears but with grace.
Nobody’s hurt me like you

Well everything changed, and you took the blame
We parted one day, with a sigh
But I keep seeing your face, am I losing my mind?
Still can’t say goodbye.

It’s been a long day, and though the future is still so unclear,
And memories are bittersweet, I’m so glad I’m here
Finding the love I once knew.
It’s been a long day

Part Of The Whole

Nobody Like You (Part 2: Part Of The Whole)

New written lyrics based on the Karel Svoboda 's theme song from the movie "Thre wishes for cinderella".

What will you tomorrow be?
What's already chosen?
Nothing's written in the stones
for whom keeps loving open

Miracles they do
live inside of you
Aim of the evil will cross your path
But you are a fairytale stronger than them

Story never finished
Make it what your dream is

Three wishes for cinderella

You, Me & The Beach

EARLY SUNDAY MORNING 
I'M READY FOR MY BED
YES,IT GOT LATE
BUT ALL THE FUN THAT WE HAD
I'M STILL SMILING
AND THE MORNING SUN IS HIGH
AND THE BIRDS ARE SINGING FOR ME
IN THE SKY

WE HAD A GORGOUS PARTY
AND EVERYONE WAS KIND
SOME HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK 
BUT THAT IS FINE
WE REALLY HAD A GOOD TIME
WE HAD A LOT OF FUN
TIME TO GO HOME 
IN THE MORNING SUN

I'M STILL SMILING
AND THE MORNING SUN IS HIGH
AND THE BIRDS ARE SINGING FOR ME
IN THE SKY

YES IT REALLY WAS A FUNNY NIGHT
A NIGHT I WILL REMEMBER
AS I WALK IN THE MORNING LIGHT
ON MY WAY TO BED NOW
EVERYTHING IS FINE
WALKING BY MYSELF
IN THE MORNING LIGHT

Early Sunday Morning (with Eli Gauden)

I read no-ones mind
Not even my own
I don't know why loving
Is making me cold

You gave me a home
And a king-size bed
But I khave ept my eyes 
On the outdoors instead

Leaving is wrong, But staying ain't right
It is over and I don't know why
You're the best man a man can be
Are you mine?

When morning rise
I seek for wings
I live for the far and
nameless things

My mind is a gypsy
While I stand still
You gaze at me I
Gaze at the hills

There's that voice I can't ignore 
I need to know what it's calling for?
You're the best man a man can be
Are you mine?

The way you pressed
Your lips on my neck
My hands in your hair
Yours on my back

Gazing for hours
In through your blue eyes
Hoping your love 
would make me blind

Time has done its work for us
I'm leaving you my love
You're the best man a man can be
the best man a man can be
Are you mine?

Nameless Things

From raw blues covers to heart-bound Americana originals; Norwegian singer/songwriting Eli Gauden silences the room and creates an atmosphere you don't want to leave. By combining the honesty and complexity of her own stories with the simplicity of the roots, she expressed the darkest emotions with an angel-like touch, and pulls the listener in.
