Lyrics:
Whenever we say Goodbye

Evergreen we all begin 
Never knowing what we lose and what we win
We take our chances where we can
Finding love between a woman and man

But with the sweet comes the bitter
With sunshine, there’s always been some rain,
And raging like the drops that splatter
I believe in us, through the laughter and the pain
Though the road may take you, You’ll come home again, 
‘Cause you know inside, our songs all sound the same  
And we’ll fight until we tumble in our breathless fire and come alive again.. 

And Whenever we say goodbye…
A little of me dies each time..
Time will flow … we’ll be together..
No Goodbye….. Oh no..  Goodbye’s not forever..
  
Sometimes hearts must break and shatter
But hindsight can renew and mend again….
It takes two minds that know what matters
And the courage to reach out and make a change…
I may not say all the time,    
And sometimes I may fail at being kind…
But I will love you ’till I die,
No Goodbye is not forever.. When we say goodbye
Goodbye’s not forever…

LYRICS:
The Pollen Song - By Nat Daniels

I got pollen in my eyes
I ain’t telling any lies,
and this fever is frustrating 
'cause I don’t see what i am baking
And the sneezes multiply
Itchy throat and runny eyes
No I can’t take this pollen anymore!!

Yeah I got pollen in my hair
God this shit is everywhere
You can blow you nose ‘till easter
You’ll need meds to help this fever
but there’s nothing on shelves..
Was there a Sale ? or Something Else?
No I can’t take this pollen anymore!!!

All I wanna do, is sleep like a log!
But I need the meds to clear me, else I'm shit out'a luck!
So I’ll wash my face and wear a mask, 
And try not to get snot on the floor!!!!!

Sigh*

No I Can’t take this pollen anymore…
No I CAN’T take this pollen anymore…
Gesundheit!

My utmost thanks goes to my dear friend Dirk for lending me his Exquisite guitar skills and his voice on this song.
This song is about living out loud..  Don't waste time.. take the leap. 

Lyrics:

Wake to the Sound

Wake to the sound, Don’t drown it out..
Your voice will fade into the crowd.
live every day... you got a say!
It’s much too late, lying in your grave..

Oh, and so.. Everything lies
Sunk like a stone on the bedrock of time
We lose all our dreams
Torn at the seams, Say we’re fine, 
But it’s not what we mean…. Ohh…..

Oh Fly to the sun even if you burn, 
At least you lived at every turn 
Fight for love.. don’t let it go…
Its not too late to know for sure

Ooh... leap ...leap to sky, 
How can you win if you never try ?
So let's go where We can fly
Over the sea my love you and I
And when you’re lost, not sure where to go,
Leave sorrows behind you, come in from the cold
In rasping fire, leave behind all the pain, 
'till you find yourself again….

Ooh... Leap! Leap to sky, 
How can you win if you never try ?
So let's go where We can fly
Over the sea my love you and I.....

Written by the amazing Paul Waaktaar-Savoy

"sitting there smiling, she silently fell apart in front of the world, whilst  everyone was watching"...

It wasn't the rain that washed away...
Rinsed out the colours of your eyes
Putting the gun down on the bedside table
I must have realized
It wasn't the rain
That made no difference
And I could have sworn it wasn't me
Yet I did it all so coldly
Almost slowly
Plain for all to see
Oh c'mon please now
Talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful
How can I stop now
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I've been losing you
I can still hear our screams competing
You're hissing your s's like a snake
Now in the mirror shows *
A worn out soul, * 
I thought no one could break
It wasn't the rain
That made no difference
Nervously drumming on:Run away
But I want the guilt to get me
Thoughts to wreck me
Preying on my mind
So, please now
Talk to me
Tell me things I could find helpful
For how can I stop now
Is there nothing I can do
I have lost my way
I've been losing you

I've Been Losing You

I've Been Losing You (cover)

This is very short song written by Eric Feltham, and when he asked me to add vocals I was thrilled to do so..  Durge then added his vocals, and this beautiful angelic harmony came into being with his help.  This is a very unique and short instrumental track but I dare say it holds quite a bit of fascination.  It was a pleasure to work with Eric, and Durge and I are thrilled we could tag along on this Avantgarde excursion off the D&D beaten track.

Comfort -  by D Taubenheim..   a.k.a.  The ultimate Gatsby..

I didn't mean to make you cry
It hurts to hear you sigh
Sometimes I'm rude, I don't know why
Let me kiss your pale blue eyes

You're my angel, I love you
And I'll do all that I can do
To stop your tears and make you smile
To hurt your heart is not my style

My choice of words was not okay
I guess I didn't know what to say
Stuck in my anger, No way out
Feeling helpless, Getting loud

You're my angel, I love you
And I'll do all that I can do
To stop your tears and make you smile
To hurt your heart would destroy mine

I want to comfort you right now
Give you my love if you allow
Let me protect and save you
‘Cause this is all I wanna do

I was thrilled when Andy and Gaz invited me along on this collaboration.  The Lyrics are beautifully written and sung by Gaz and lends itself to great story telling. It was lovely to join him and to bring my creative spirit in harmonisation to the table.  Andy wrote the beautiful melody and created the gorgeous Instrumental track (which has a hauntingly beautiful Guitar solo) and then brought it All to life with his incredible Production / Mixing skills, breathing life into the song,  and giving it a depth of sound to make it "sparkle".

Lyrics:
Our Devine intervention - Gary Brown and Andy Hall.

Standing on the bridge
Staring into the water
(I’ve kept you waiting
An hour and a quarter )
My Head tells me to leave
My hearts a little more naive
(We’ve had 27 days apart
To rekindle this flagging heart )

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V2
Finally you arrive in your own chaotic style
(So my car went and broke down
And i walk the last 3 miles)
I get the big puppy eyes
And a cute little sorry sigh
(What lies beneath in this rivers deep
Are the same things in the
secrets we keep)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V3
(Let’s stand back to back
Walk in a different direction)
If we just keep right on walking
Then we have lost all affection
(If we both look back and then we stop
We won’t lose what we’ve got)
Well I stopped and looked back
(I kept walking down the path)

Chorus (last line different)
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To we’re I loved being yours
And you loved being mine
Our Devine intervention
At least we know now this time

Divine Intervention - Nat Daniels & The Conscience of Kings

My profound thanks to Jeff for this wonderful opportunity to collaborate. It truly was a labour of love, and it was also an Opportunity to take his amazing original song, put a girly spin on it, and create something with a more Cubano Spanish Rock Jazz feel to it, and to stretch my Piano Muscles! Jeff added his amazing Guitar and Bass skills, and a fusion was created! It's cheeky and light, even though the song is about parting ways!  We do hope it makes your toes tap and brings a smile to your souls. 
Thank you Jeff for the wonderful song and words.  It was my pleasure and honour.

The Goodbye Horizon:

Love has come undone
just an empty motel with a broken welcome sign 
so we're leaving now 
leaving this place where the ghosts of our passions abide

He walks without looking behind
I'm standing here losing my mind

We're leaving now for the goodbye horizon
a borderless freedom at the edge of mind's sight
still sheltering a tiny spark
there in the darkness that lies in the orphan heart

Solo - Piano, Nylon Guitar, and Electric guitar.

We are just tourists in the ruins of these memories
where every wall whispers the failure of our dreams
it always comes down to who owns this burden
better just to say, you and I are hurting today

the names of the streets haven't changed
but you and I will never be the same

We're leaving now for the goodbye horizon
a borderless freedom at the edge of mind's sight
still sheltering a tiny spark
there in the darkness that lies in the orphan heart
... a tiny spark that hides... 
and there in the darkness it lies in the orphaned... heart.

Lyrics: Butterfly Lips

We're like the pantomime villains
Everybody boo’s when we enter the room 
We’re just an imprint on your souls 
That you left like an unkept wilted rose
It feels like we have been dropped off 
After driving to the middle of nowhere 
So we will clear our desk find a box
Fill it right up and fuck right off

Chorus 
It’s been one of those days 
Now it’s one of those nights x2
And the one thing we’ll never resist
Is the taste of our butterfly lips x2

We are your coffee flavour
In our mixed up bag of revels
Maybe that’s the reason why everyone’s bitter and dishevelled
Our moral gymnastics has somersaulted through the roof again
We will clear our desk find a box
Fill it up and fuck right off

Chorus

Many people like to claim responsibility for their success
But we will find ourselves alone
For the failures and regrets 
So we keep it short and keep it sweet 
'Cause we’re listening through gritted teeth 
So we will clear our desk find a box fill it up and fuck right off!

Love You Beyond

Copyright Nat Daniels 2017

Lyrics:

Until the lights begin to fade
It makes no difference, when the night falls
And that moon up above shines down upon us all,
You’d still be far away, and there’s no words to say,
When the loneliness calls

Sometimes its hard to breathe
Time passes so slow,
And we hold onto love, its hard letting go,
You will be back in time, for true love never dies,
It lives in our souls, It lives in our Souls....

Chorus:
I want to hold you close,
Close like the Holy ghost
Until the dawn steals you away,
You should be here with me,
Unto eternity 
Until the lights begin to fade

Hold onto every breath
Every word you said
Every kiss in the dark
Down to each silent stare
All I can do is wait
Distance can seal no fate
it comes to us all, It comes to us All....

Chorus:
I want to hold you close,
Close like the Holy ghost
Until the dawn steals you away,
You should be here with me,
Right where you’re meant to be
Until the lights begins to fade

Bridge
It’s not enough
When promises break your heart
We've come so far.... 
so I will wait for you
'cause that’s what I’m meant to do 

Take me into your arms
Move me Ohh so slow
And with silent eyes
Breathe fire inside my soul
Burning light firelights 
Swaying like northern lights
Don’t let me go... don't let me go!

Chorus:
I want to hold you close,
Close like the holy ghost
Until the dawn steals you away,
You should be here with me,
Right where you’re meant to be
Until the lights begin to fade... Until the Lights begin.. to fade.

Until the lights begin to fade

Fly bird fly 

She grew up on a farm on outs of town
didn’t have much money, but she knew her own mind
fly bird fly..

and she lived in her dreams, kept it all inside
when she turned 16 left it all behind
fly bird fly..

Chorus
and so she let it burn
and took his hands, with nowhere left to turn
fly bird fly, fly bird fly..
 
2nd verse..
So he asked for hand and to have and to hold
and she gave her love, and she gave her soul
fly bird fly..

She would peak at her dreams every once in a while,
as they made their plans she would nod and smile,
fly bird fly

Chorus
and So then love becomes
gave it all, for her daughter and two sons,
fly bird fly, fly bird fly..

bridge instrumental

So the years went by like a merry go round
and she buried her love
and the kids moved out, 
fly bird fly

through the pain and the sorrow there was so much love
so much to be cherished and be thankful of
fly bird fly

End Chorus
so spread your wings and fly
go live your dreams before your life’s gone by
fly bird fly, fly bird fly
fly bird fly, fly bird….

Fly Bird Fly

Song is about remembering the wonders of childhood and a story of a journey.

Lyrics:
Onthou my, my kinder dae   (Remind me my childhood days)

{Verse}
Ek droom vanaand van my ma se huis,  
(Tonight I dream of my mother's home)
die krieke in die veld en wind wat suis
(The crickets in the fields and the howling wind)
daars sout op die lug en maan hang laag,
(the Salt in the air and the moon hanging low)
en die hadidas sit op die dak en raas
(and the Hadida Birds sitting on the roof making noise)

[Verse]
die wilger boom langs my ma se huis, was my uitkyk toring op die gaanse reik,
(The willow tree next to my mother's house, was my lookout tower over the my kingdom and the universe)
die plankies hout het my pa gebou, en in daai boom het ek gesit en droom van jou
(The shards of wood my father built, and in that tree i dreamt of you )

[Chorus]
Onthou my , my kinder dae, 
(remind me my childhood days)
gespeel in die pad tot die straat lig brand, 
(played in the street 'till the lights turned on)
kaalvoet op die gras gewag,  
(waited bare foot on the grass)
vir my pa se volla om in te ry van die werk af, en my Ma se kos wat so lekker smaak. 
(waiting for my Dad's VW beetle to arrive from work, and my mother's food that always tasted so good)

[Verse]
ons eerste kar wat my broers ons gee  
(our first car that my brother's gave us as a gift)
’n 4 spoed datsun wat ons hulp verleen 
(was a 4 speed Datsun which aided us as humble as it was)
ons eerste woonstel in Arcadia straat 
(our first apartment we lived in, in Arcadia Street)
by die unie gebou het jy my hand gevra 
(and at the Union Buildings you asked me my hand in marriage)

die 4 uur rit na jou ma se huis  
(the 4 hour drive to your mom's house)
al kleine dorpies wat ons deur moes reis 
(all the tiny towns we drove through)
die outydse kerke het my oupa help bou 
(the old fashioned Churche's we saw which my great grandfather built)
en met sy fiets hy geloof en werk behou 
(and with his humble bicycle he supported and retained his job and his faith and family)

Onthou my, my kinderdae 
(remember me, my childhood days)
die spreeus wat laag vlieg in die lente maand
(the sparrows that fly so low in the month of Spring)
die vuurvlee in die veld wat dans, en my broers wat rugby speel tot laat op die grasperk,
(the fireflies dancing in the fields and my brother's playing rugby outside in the yard)
en die uil wat waak op die telefoon paal.
(and the owl that guarded the world sitting faithfully on the Telephone pole nightly)

[Bridge]
Ondervindings van verlede 
(experiences from the past)
gee soms uitkoms in ons nood
(sometimes gives us the way out in our most dire need)
deur die herfs van ons verleemtes, S'waar ons hoop moet hê
(through the Autum of our sorrows is when we need to have hope the most)
Lug jouself uit jou verdrukking
(lift yourself out of your oppression)
dis wat die bybel mos sê
(is what the good book says)

[Verse]
het ek miljoene in die bank gehad,
(If I had millions in the bank)
sou ek dak en huis vir my ma regmaak
(I would fix my mama's house and roof)
die minste wat ek uit my hart kan doen,
(its the least I can from the heart)
vir alles wat sy vir ons kinders moes doen
(for everything she had to do for us, her children)

[Chorus outro]
onthou my , my kinder dae 
(remember me my childhood days)
die sprokies wereld wat ons ouers bou
(the fabled world our parents create for us)
die liefde en die vrede
(the love and the peace they afforded us)
skemer deur in alle fondasies wat voorouers lê
(makes itself evident in all foundations our forefathers laid for us)
en hiermee wil ons net dankie sê,
(and for this we want to say thank you) 
met my dank aan God wat ons pad voorlê.
(with my profound thanks unto God who lays out our paths before us)

Onthou my, my Kinderdae

Let there be love

lyrics:
Let there be Love

You sit in church with a clean white shirt but you didn’t hear a word
Then you pass a man with a shiny can but you couldn’t give a.. shirt
Where is your love, yeah where is your love?

But what if that was your old man, your sister or your son
You wouldn’t hesitate to give a moment of your time
That would be love, yeah that would be love

So let there be love, oh yeah let there be love
let there be love, oh yeah let us give love

So you build your bombs and you peddle guns and you fight your holy wars
but you only teach your kids to hate and they pass it on because
that is not love, no there is no love

but hate can only lead to hate, but you justify the means
it’s always for some greater good, but it’s never good it seems
was it worth love, tell me, was it worth love?

So let there be love, oh yeah let there be love
let there be love, oh yeah let there be love

Well I guess that Human kindness is buried in the sand
but love can only lead to kindness, it’s lending a helping hand

So let there be love, oh yeah let there be love
let us make love, oh yeah let us give love

you can’t go back into the past, can’t undo what’s done,
the future’s what you make it, so make it a good one!

Let there be love

Let There Be Love

You took your heart, over the sea
left on a boat with a dream
found there were three other’s like me, 
waiting for you by the sea
Chorus
Woe is me, woe is she, but woe don’t live here no more,
‘cause I’ve got a plan, gun in my hand, 
and painted revenge by your door

So it would seem he found his dream,
But Gold turned to Dust in the sun…
Bound to her hand, not what he planned
a shotgun will silence his soul

Woe is he, woe is he, but he ain’t running no more..
‘cause he’s got a plan, sailing the sands
he longs for that girl by the shore

Woe was she, woe was she, but fate would settle the score
Before he could speak, and say what she needs
Her words gunned him down by the door

She slammed the door… He hit the floor
His heart pounding words to her soul..
but there were no lies, behind his eyes
her heart could be silent no more

Woe was he, woe was she, the Spell took sway long ago..
‘cause she’s still that girl, down by the shore
and into his arms she would fall.

This is a Raw recording of this song which captures the emotion of the moment and I decided to leave it as is due to sentiment.   
The heart wants what it wants..  ☀️🌻
Three things remain: Hope, Faith and Love.. but the greatest of all.. is Love.     

Lyrics:

I know you’re tired love
You ache in your bones
You walk home alone..
But i’ll  be here when you walk through the door
In my arms you will be reborn

You question all things love
But love never fails
You ask how you got here
Yet the road we all take is the same
But I’ll walk by your side all the way

Love never fails.. Love
Just open your eyes
And when you are falling
I’ll swoop in like a Robin each time

Our heaven is here love
in each others arms
You’re mine and I’m yours love,  
every thought, every kiss, every moan,
rise again through the love we have known

Love never fails.. Love
Just open your eyes
And when you are falling
I’ll swoop in like a Robin each time
Oh Love never fails..  My Love
I’m two steps behind..
And when you are broken
I’m your Angel, I’ll heal you each time,
Love never fails … My Love.
Love never fails..

Love Never Fails

LYRICS
Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk 
On a day-I-ay-I-ay 
I met a sweet guy and we stopped to talk 
On a fine ol day-I-ay-I-ay 
And I ask you, friend, what's a girl to do ?
'Cause his hair was black and his eyes were blue 
And I knew right then I'd give him a try
'Round the Salthill Prom with this Galway guy
We were halfway there when the rain came down 
On a fine ol day-I-ay-I-ay 
He asked me up to his flat downtown 
On a fine ol' day-I-ay-I-ay 
And I ask you, friend, what's a girl to do?
'Cause his hair was black and his eyes were blue 
I took his hand and I’d give him a try
And I lost my heart to this Galway guy
When I woke up I was all alone 
With a broken heart and a ticket home 
And I ask you now, tell me what do I do? 
Cause his hair was black and his eyes were
Blue
and I travelled the world,  travelled far and wide. 
But I never met someone like the Galway guy

Lyrics: 
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this world just ain't no home
Every time he goes away

Guess this time he's gone for good...
Guess this time he's gone to stay...
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
this world just ain't no home 
every time he goes away

And I know....

Ought to leave this thing alone!!!
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
This world ain't no home
Anytime he goes away.....

Lyrics:

Blue on blue
As the falling leaves flew 
What a terrible thing to leave you. 
What a terrible truth to need you.

Oh... What I could I do? 
Should’ve kissed you by that window in your bedroom

As the pink light faded into the midnight blue
Guess it all came crashing down.. I needed you
Should’ve told you that I loved you
that I didn’t care who knew.. 
Blue on Blue..

It’s like we’re on two trains in the opposite way
Both looking in the same direction 
Holding onto this crazy connection

Oh.. All I know
This feeling’s getting stronger
And I want you more

Baby hold on to this feeling, I feel it too
Don’t care how long it takes, I’ll wait for you
Should have held onto you longer
When you held me in your arms
Blue on Blue

Will I be Remembered - By Nat Daniels and Colê

Another 10 yrs has gone by
And I still haven’t written that book
Took some time to look up a friend
And see who still cares

It’s day after day with a mortgage to pay
it’s grind in itself to get by
I’m still holding on to the dream inside
And I wonder if time will be kind

Chorus:

Or will time leave me forgotten
Like a ball of used up cotton?
Am I still somewhere in someone’s mind?
Or a remnant of the days behind?
Will I be remembered for my deeds
And the love I left behind?
Will I be remembered....  
Oh remembered 

The Mirror keeps changing on me
Showing lines ain’t seen before
My eyes sees a child with a grin in her eyes
Who had dreams that could never be sold

And looking back on the life I had
I should count my blessings more
And I’ve many scars to show,
But strength to go on…

Chorus:
Or will time leave me forgotten
Like a ball of used up cotton?
Am I still somewhere in someone’s mind?
Or a remnant of the days behind?
Will I be remembered for my deeds
And the love I left behind?
Will I be remembered.... oh remembered
Remembered.

How quickly we go from childhood friends to adults in a moment..  the sun burnt up on the ocean, and we awoke to a new understanding..   
I'll always see you there..   Whenever I play.. Elvis Costello.

Lyrics:

Late one night you came to my door without warning.
You just kissed me without even saying a word.
The dust from the desert still clung to the flag on your uniform. 
We had only a moment, before you’d return in the dawn.

Looking down, you hated to leave...
Then you said please wait for me.

I recall nights listening to Elvis Costello.
Every slow breath you took a sleep in my arms,
Every sunset we saw burn up on the ocean, 
And I am still, I’m still there with you, 
Whenever I play Elvis Costello...

Young love always have great expectations.
But I guess we couldn’t survive though we tried.
Like a car changing lanes, our lives did the same in so many ways.
But the memory of you stays a page in the life I will write.

We moved on, but you still remain,
In a time we won’t have again.

I recall nights listening to Elvis Costello.
Every slow breath you took a sleep in my arms.
Every sunset we saw burn up on the ocean,
And I am still, I’m still there with you, 
Whenever I play Elvis Costello. 
Oh whenever I play ….  Elvis Costello.

Whenever I play Elvis Costello

Lyrics
The Dream plays On (You are my Sunshine Variation)

The Other night Love, when I lay Sleeping,
I dreamt I held you in my arms
But when I woke I was mistaken
And in the Darkness, softly cried..

I’ll always love you, and make you Happy,
if you would only say the same,
But if you leave me, and love another
Your heart will ache for me someday..

Chorus:
For one sweet moment, You really loved me
and vowed no one could come between
but now you’ve left me, to love another
and in that moment broke all our dreams

And every dream since, repeats you leaving..
And when I wake the dream plays on…
And though I’m broken, just you can mend me..
if you’d only come back home.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey,
You’ll never know how much I love you..
so please don’t take my sunshine away… no please don’t
take my sunshine away…

I’ll always love you…

The Season Song by Nat and Maïa

When the SUMMER comes around,
I leave my coat and I go outside,
Play with my friends ‘till the sun goes down
‘cause they’re the 'bestest' friends in town

When the AUTUMN comes around
The Leaves turn Orange Yellow and Brown
It’s harvest time and Halloween
And to dress for fun like a King or Queen

When the WINTER comes around
We wear our coats when we go outside
Deciduous trees loose their leaves
and it’s Christmas time for you and me

And when the SPRING comes around
Umbrellas make a whooshing sound
The daffodils and bluebells bloom
and the Easter Bunny will see us soon!

Martin wrote this incredible instrumental track, and when he invited me to write words and a vocal melody to his song, I couldn't resist.  He is immensely talented, and it's been my honour to work with him on this song.  Please check out his music on this link:  Martin Hirsch https://soundcloud.com/martin-hirsch-656665916

Lyrics:   Where Are You Now (I Surrender) 🌻☀️

Darling ain’t no use, to try and let you go..
Because your sweet touch lingers in my bones
You said all the right words to make me believe and in that surrender
You brought me to my knees…

Adept at discretion, you made it easy to dwell,
But like an assassin, you knew me too well..
And I let my guard down, went out on a ledge 
But where are you now? When all has been said…

I stare at that shimmer, that glides on the waves
I swear I can hear you calling my name
And there in that whisper of a slow midnight breeze
I surrender, but you’re not here with me…

I wasn’t used to love, and may at times seemed cold
But somehow you saved me from the dark in my soul..
But where are you now when I finally believe ?
Oh I surrender unto the dream…
Baby I surrender unto the dream.
