Years Between - Lyrics

Time to go home
Time is not enough

And I have seen down the ways of time
And I feel them coming through me in waves

In my life, like a shadow in the sunlight
Just passing over all the days and the years between
And the long way and the journey into night and day
And when it's over our days are lost into real life

Breathe in the years
Time greeting me

And how all these things have me weighed down
When I have seen far away

And in my life, like a shadow in the sunlight
Just passing over all the days and the years between
And the long way and the journey into night and day
And when it's over our days are lost into real life

And what about when I get old?

And in my life, like a shadow in the sunlight
Just passing over all the days and the years between
And the long way and the journey into night and day
And when it's over our days are lost into real life

And what about now?

Strange Part of the Country - Lyrics

The night falls on Nong Bone town

Seventeen ladyboys and he are beating up small change Europeans
Someone gets drugged by three old ladies

This is a strange part of the country
This is a strange part of the world
This is a strange part of the country
And we are not welcome
We are not welcome

The night falls, I have no past

Twenty three hostess girls and me
The edge of the roads turn into decades rubbing against me

This is a strange part of the country
This is a strange part of the world
This is a strange part of the country
And we are not welcome

We are not well

This is a strange part of the country
This is a strange part of the world
This is a strange part of the country
But we are not welcome
We are not welcome

Time Settles - Lyrics 

And the decision made a hole, a vacancy in a vital inner chamber in my bones
This is what finally separated me from all my friends for whom I became skeletal

Time settles over me
Time settles over me

And then the places I visit became the same inside world that I thought I was in
And like a fly scribbling the air I know neither the place nor what the hour is

Time settles over me
Time settles over me

And I, far off inside, was old

And now the years are closing in, each minute the last minute and following me

Time Settles

Recorded in my living room March 4th, 2022. I really like to take my time with the good things in life. This is a story about the joy of diving into kissing different people, like dancing, being here and now. 
This creation took its time too. Originally written in English as "Kissing Slow", chorus in 2015, the rest in 2017. Danish version in 2022.

Langsomt kysseri (lyrics)                                                                         			                                                 
Af og til så møder jeg et ganske særligt væsen med stjernerne i sit blik.
Jeg får lyst til at lære bare at være i kær-lig-hed.
Fremtid og fortid forenes i nu. Vi lever og ånder og er.
Og jeg tænker: Hvorfor sku´ vi dog la´ vær´?  

Lad os kysse langsomt, sænke farten, 
så vi når hinanden helt fra starten. 
Læber mødes overlagt, 
hjælper hjerterne i takt. 
Vi skaber hvid magi – med langsomt kysseri.  

Nogen syn´s jeg er grov. Tror jeg kysser for sjov. 
Bliver triste når jeg si´r godnat.
Jeg vil danse med dig i en sanselig leg.
Nyd nu nuets dans min skønne skat.

Lad os kysse langsomt, sænke farten, 
så vi når hinanden helt fra starten. 
Læber mødes overlagt, 
hjælper hjerterne i takt. 
Vi skaber hvid magi, 
når vi kysser langsomt, sænker farten, 
så vi når hinanden helt fra starten. 
Læber mødes overlagt, 
hjælper hjerterne i takt. 
Vi skaber hvid magi – med langsomt kysseri.  
Vi skaber hvid magi – med langsomt kysseri.
Langsomt kysseri.
Lang-somt kys!

Mushroom Rollercoaster - Perfect Part

Recorded in my livingroom September 2015.
These lyrics came to me yesterday morning. I feel they are somewhat ancient - from another time. Later in the day the melody appeared from a medieval mode or something. 

Be still, my heart.

Be still, my heart.
Distil my love
until it is strong and pure
and any mayhem can endure.

Be still, my heart.
Distil my love
until it is pure and clear
and can dissolve my every fear.

Be still, my heart.
Distil my love
until it is clear and strong
and never ever can do wrong.

	Mille, September 5th, 2015


Be still, my heart DEMO

Danish songwriter Emerald Greene is inviting the listeners in, creating an intimate and touching atmosphere with present storytelling and a touch of cabaret. Exploring the aspects of close and distant relations, including the relationship to herself.  Moments and memories of joy and pain caught and framed into thoughtful stories with humorous details. Her work is revealing a profound love for life, people, lyrics and storytelling as well as for slightly bluesy melodies scarcely in need of accompaniment. 

Emerald Greene released her first EP in January 2019: "Awakening", co-arranged and produced by Troels Alsted. Sometime in 2020 (when quarantine times are over) the continued cooperation results in a single in Danish "Hormonstyret kædedans (en vovet vise fra de sydlige regioner) ".

Always up for a co-write, a topline or other cooperation possibilities. 
I have been writing lyrics and songs since high school - year by year widening my perspective from my own little heartaches to stories that could (or maybe does) belong to someone else.
