As dawn breaks, the city slowly comes to life —
distant footsteps, the sound of traffic, a soft melody blending into the hum of morning energy.
This Lo-fi track captures that quiet yet hopeful moment before the rush begins.

🌇 City Awakens

I lent my double bass to a good friend and it was returned in pieces. Somewhat shaken by the experience I borrowed another  bass to complete this song. 

The aggression in the delivery was infinitely preferable to venting it on such a good friend. Accidents happen.

It didn’t look good, you know what I mean?
A man in a hat in a black limousine
Window was down, asked for a light
What are the chances of things going right?

I reach for my zippo, games as close as I dare
My hand was shaking, sure I was scared
He drew on his doobie, he gave a rye smile
Jacksons or Franklins I’ll let you decide

I empty my pockets onto hat’s hood
I only had chump change, so it didn’t look good
Short on payola, lacking the guac
He pulled out his piece and I sat in the back

The girl in the front seat, she didn’t say much
And neither would you if he had his hand on your crouch
I looked out the window you wanna know why?
That’s what you do if you don’t want to die

He was so hard boiled
He was so hard boiled
So hard boiled tough as a nut
Hard in the middle

I had premonitions, not good I confess
Me full of lead, her cut up in her dress
I dialled from my pocket, cops picked up quick
Hat said that’a so rude, she thought what a dick!
 
He was so hard boiled
He was so hard boiled
So hard boiled tough as a nut
Hard in the middle
But what’s that oozing out?

So Hard Boiled

I present for you my cover of the beautiful , tender and heart breaking..
Young & Foolish.
Written by Albert Hague, Arnold B. Horwitt and performed by Bill Evans for many years before he finally recorded it on his second album " Everbody Digs Bill Evans " in 1959

Young & Foolish

Sure I may miss you sometimes
But I ain’t lost my mind
I’m exactly where I should be
Baby don’t make any plans for me

Maybe you twinkled my toes
When you wrinkled your nose 
Those are memories I’ll always keep

Take a little trip to paradise 
Somewhere with palm trees that sway
Coconut rum wouldn’t that be nice
Learn to love yourself for a change   

I know that’s it’s hard to believe 
But we ain’t meant to be
We see that which we wish to see
Tea leaves don’t mean all that much to me

Feelings are chemical delusions
Ephemeral illusions   
Confusing reality
Leave me be, it’s clear to me
I’m exactly where I should be  

I have come to my conclusion
Despite your confusion
Your losing your grip I see
This fantasy is killing me
I’m exactly where I should be

Exactly Where I Should Be

Taking it Easy Lyrics:  Irina

What can I do?

Can I count me plus you?
What do you see?
Can you count you plus me?

Does it make any sense?
Tacit romance...

We are taking it easy
Taking it easy...

What can I do?
What if it is me minus you?
What do you see?
Is it you minus me?

Does it make any sense?
Tacit romance...

We are taking it easy
Taking it easy...

One more day
One more night with you
We'll make it beautiful

One more rhyme
One more song for you
I'll make it beautiful

I love you
I never felt like this before
I love you
I wish I could but give you more

One more smile
Lights your charming face
I think it's beautiful

One more kiss
One more last embrace
We'll make it beautiful

I love you
There's nothing wrong to feel like this
I love you
A chance that we don't want to miss

Beautiful

(Chanson pour une amie dont c'était le dernier vol)

J'ai fait le tour
De quelques questions
Et puis à quoi bon ?

J'ai fait le tour
De bien des jardins
J'ai fait du mal et du bien

J'ai fait le tour
Le tour de la terre
Été comme hiver

J'ai fait la sourde
Oreille au réveil
Pour un tour de sommeil

Mais s'il y a bien une chose au monde
D'où l'on ne revient
Que pour mieux y retourner un jour
Même quelques secondes
Pour un dernier tour
L'Amour

Vas voir là bas
Si on y est
Toi tu y seras

Vas voir là bas
Et nous de veiller
Sur tout, sur tout et sur toi

Ton ciel est plein
Plein de copains
De Paris à Singapour

Le ciel est vaste
All thing must past
Chacun son tour

Mais s'il y a bien une chose au monde
Dont on se souvient
La vie entière et le coeur lourd
Les quelques secondes
Avant le dernier tour

Voilà ma Flo
En quelques mots
Voyage au long cours

Vas où tu veux
Reviens dès que tu peux
Pour un,
Un dernier tour...

Le Tour

-------------------

The world was too heavy
So we slept in a dream
And when you were ready
We began to dream
And I can't remember why we would wake up

There's something in the air
There's a message in your stare
There's a fire in your eyes
Rising to the skies

I wish I was better
I wish I could be there
There's so much beauty
That we won't have the time to share
And I wish we could stay in the dream

There's something in the air
There's a message in your stare
There's a fire burning blue
And it's cold without you

Cold Air

We've got to get this under control.  What lies ahead?  Please do your part.
