Nog ’n kalender word op die hoop gegooi,
Tyd draai sy arm asof dit waai en nooi.

Ver oor verlore paaie dwaal ek en jy saam,
Hand in hand, my sielsgenoot, maar ek ken nog nie jou naam.
Sirkels in die gedagtegang verlei my na die boos,
Van kinderjare en grootmensgoed, van passie en van troos.

Vergete skadu’s val nou teen die muur,
Faal figure, strek by elke uur.

Ver oor verlore paaie dwaal ek en jy saam,
Hand in hand, my sielsgenoot, maar ek ken nog nie jou naam.
Sirkels in die gedagtegang verlei my na die boos,
Van kinderjare en grootmensgoed, van passie en van troos.

Onthou jy nog die dae
Ek en jy was altyd saam,
Maar die afgelope jare
Kom ek nie meer aan jou naam.

Die son verduister, verdwyn tot ’n donker nag,
Stilte fluister, soos ’n laksman wat vir jou wag.

Ver oor verlore paaie dwaal ek en jy saam,
Hand in hand, my sielsgenoot, maar ek ken nog nie jou naam.
Sirkels in die gedagtegang verlei my na die boos,
Van kinderjare en grootmensgoed, van passie en van troos.

Ver oor verlore paaie dwaal ek en jy saam,
Hand in hand, my sielsgenoot, maar ek ken nog nie jou naam.
Sirkels in die gedagtegang verlei my na die boos,
Van kinderjare en grootmensgoed, van passie en van troos.

Away I Go

CRISTOPHER DÁVILA - POPULARIDAD

WE’RE BORN AGAIN

There was a time when I wasn’t kind 
All I believed was trapped in my mind 
I never saw the world all around 
And I never knew that truth could be found 

All of my days were full of regret 
And anger inside for all that I met 
I could not forgive the sins that I saw 
I could not conceive that I had those flaws 

And yet we are creatures 
Made of simple dust 
Now endowed with features 
That we must learn to trust 

There was a day when I’d reached the end
Lied to myself and could not pretend
The world that I knew was tiny and small
The hate that I lived would soon be my fall

When I tried to see I found I was blind
I pounded my fists to loosen the bind
I could not recall what I had ignored
I opened my heart to reach for the door

Yes, we are creatures
Made of simple dust
Endowed with features
We must learn to trust

The knock on the door had come just in time
I opened it wide and started to climb
I could not believe the world I would find
When I wasn’t trapped alone in my mind

We all have the gift to choose what we see
And follow a path to what we will be
We listen and learn and watch for the sight
When meaning becomes a thief in the night

So, yes, we are creatures
Made of simple dust
Now endowed with features
That we must learn to trust

And, yet, we are creatures
Made of simple dust
Now endowed with features
That we must learn to trust

WE'RE BORN AGAIN

I saw Billy Rowe at the Stones last show,
he looked like he’d just been gassed.
He said Sheila’s gone, they couldn’t get along,
nothing in common but the past,
and it went through my mind
to tell him we’re fine,
but I was feeling something different inside,
the truth keeps changing and the sky gets
deeper, then our eyes are open wide.

I wanna start over, I wanna all start over,
right here in the present time,
not living in the past like a pantomime,
why pretend? It’s not like it was back then.

I saw Sue Hale, she said Gary’s back in jail,
for dealin just a little bit strong.
It was always just fun till he had to get a gun,
she doesn’t know if she can wait that long,

And it went through my mind
to tell her we’re fine
but I was feelin something different inside,
the truth keeps changing and the sky gets
deeper, then our eyes are open wide.

I wanna start over, I wanna start over,
right here in the present time,
not living in the past like a pantomime,
why pretend? It’s not like it was back then.

She said I’m easy in this light, I said I don’t
feel right, then I left your friend Karen at the bar.
When I took off my coat, I found your note
saying you’d be driving all night with the car,
And it went through my mind
to just say “that’s fine”
but I was feeling something different inside,
the truth keeps changing and the sky gets
deeper, then our eyes are open wide.

I wanna start over, I wanna start all over,
right here in the present time,
not living in the past like a pantomime,
why pretend? It’s not like it was back then.

Music and Lyrics by Kimberly Chong

Lyrics: 

When you shouldn't care what they think 
But you do, yeah you do
When you've confused love with something else,
Will you find a good replacement?

Sometimes I wish I had a big sister
I'd look up to her and I'd ask
Why are things like this?
And she'd say, I know as much as you do my dear
You just keep the faith
You just keep the faith

Maybe one day, when life stops getting in the way
I'll get there
Maybe one day, when things start making sense again
You'll be there

But until then

I'll fight the good fight
I'll fight the good fight
I'll fight the good fight
For you x2

When the dutch courage of youth
Slips away in secret
And strength is what you really need in this life
Will you find a good addiction?

Sometimes I wish I had a big sister
I'd look up to her and I'd ask
Do I make you proud?
And she'd say, don't let the world tell you what you can or can't do
You just get out there
You just get out there

Maybe one day, when life stops getting in the way
I'll get there
Maybe one day, when things start making sense again
You'll be there

But until then, until then

I'll fight the good fight
I'll fight the good fight
I'll fight the good fight
For you 

I'll be a good girl when there's nothing else to be 
If you just don't give up on me
It's lonely being an only child
It's lonely being an only child

Tried and True
