[Verse 1]
A wanting flame impatient and alive
licking at shadows where secrets hide
dusk dripping red across the sky
heartbeats cracked open pushing against the tide

[Pre-Chorus]
Hands that grip like a wildfire’s breath
an ache that dances near death

[Chorus]
Red—laughter split open when air runs out
Red—the burn that pulls me to you
Red—falling into you falling into flame
Red—where ruin and desire taste the same

[Verse 2]
The heat catches on eager spurs
a body arched a spine backed to a wall
wild and aching lungs full of breath
we’re ready to sear and make sparks collide

[Pre-Chorus]
A heart draped in passion’s impatience
lovers melting where their embers hide

[Chorus]
Red—laughter split open when air runs out
Red—the burn that pulls me to you
Red—falling into you falling into flame
Red—where ruin and desire taste the same

[Bridge]
When the air runs out we breathe in heat
spin into the blaze—no surrender no retreat
born from the spark undone in a flash
we burn together—only red turns to ash

[Chorus]
Red—laughter split open when air runs out
Red—the burn that pulls me to you
Red—falling into you falling into flame
Red—where ruin and desire taste the same

Lyrics
With You in My Life

Each day this life of ours keeps trying to put us down
I get down and out and lose my way
But there you are tugging on me keeping me afloat
Without you in my life I would surely drown

People in this life lie and cheat and make it hard to compete
We just keep going trying to do the right thing, not beat
Not beat, by lying or ruining someones life
We believe that if you keep doing right, eventually we will win

With you in my life, I keep getting up and facing up each day
I think I have told you so many times that I appreciate your ways
The love you give me everyday is what keeps me on the page
Do you know you are my hero and my love for you will never fade (I love you in every way)

So here is another day, someone has tried to make it hard
What they don’t realise is that together we will fight harder
We will bring truth to our days and find a way
I know this because your love is shining the way

With you in my life, I keep getting up and facing up each day
I think I have told you so many times that I appreciate your ways
The love you give me every day is what keeps me on the page
Do you know you are my hero and my love for you will never fade (I love you in every way)

I want to thank you for being in my life
Our love is strong and we stay strong
Each day we are in there swinging in life
A love like ours will keep on living

With you in my life, I keep getting up and facing up each day
I think I have told you so many times that I appreciate your ways
The love you give me every day is what keeps me on the page
Do you know you are my hero and my love for you will never fade (I love you in every way)

The Feeling Stays

NORTHERN LIGHTS by Nova J

[Verse 1]
I saw the Northern Lights last night
Slicing the sky like birds in flight
The sun goes down, the shine departs
Half a year of endless dark
If you were here, I wouldn’t complain,
But I walk alone on this frozen lane.

[Pre-Chorus]
Through the cold, through the unknown,
This empty town don’t feel like home.
Your eyes were bright, steady, and true,
Now all I see is the dark without you.
(Oooooh oooooh)

[Chorus]
Just us two was all I knew
Now I’m still here, but half of me’s you
Win or lose, I can’t undo
The life we had, just me and you
(Oooooh oooooh)

[INSTRUMENTAL]
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Hmmmm

(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Hmmmm

[Verse 2]
I’ve seen mountains split in two
But nothing broke me like losing you.
The earth can shake, the sky can fall
Saying goodbye’s the hardest blow of all
When sorrow calls, I can’t confide
I only whisper to the other side

[Pre-Chorus]
Through the fire, through the unknown
I stumble on, but I’m alone
Your hand once held me, your love the flame
Now I cry and call your name (mmm)

[Chorus]
Just us two, our time was true
But night keeps falling, I can’t break through
Win or lose, I’m bound to you
Just us two, without you

[INSTRUMENTAL]
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)

(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)

[Bridge]
The colors rise where the shadows go
Green and violet, the heavens glow
I search the stars for a sign of your face
A fleeting spark in the vast of space

[Outro]
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Hmmmm

Through the cold, through the unknown,
This empty house don’t feel like home.
Your eyes were bright, steady, and true,
Now all I see is the dark without you.

(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Hmmmm

(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)

Just us two, our time was true
But night keeps falling, I can’t break through
Win or lose, I’m bound to you
Just us two, without you

(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Hmmmm
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)

Just us two, without you

(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Oooooh ooooh 
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)
Hmmmm
(Northern Lights… Northern Lights…)

Just us two, without you

[whistling]

Northern Lights

My brain's a blender spinning fast 
Words escape me can't make them last 
A puzzle missing all the clues 
My pen's a liar spilling blues  

Lines go backward upside down 
Sentences wear a crooked crown  

Oh what a shambles what a scene 
Letters dance where they've never been 
A tangled tune a scribbled guess 
This dyslexic heart is a beautiful mess

Jumbled up .mp3

(FR) "I’m Alive" est une parabole musicale : l’avion en papier qui ose défier la tempête. Fragile mais vivant, il trace sa route au milieu des éléments. Entre pop cinématographique et envol orchestral, le morceau raconte l’extraordinaire voyage de toute âme qui choisit de rester debout — fragile, mais triomphante.
(EN) I’m Alive is a musical parable: the paper plane that dares to defy the storm. Fragile yet alive, it carves its path through the elements.
Blending cinematic pop and orchestral uplift, the song tells the extraordinary journey of every soul that chooses to stand tall — fragile, yet triumphant.

I'm Alive

Love me forever

Soft emotional love uplifting Soulful feel
For my Uncle 
Lived a life to 94

My Uncle,
my uncle 
Theodosi
Ninety-four
What your eyes have seen, 
The life you lived.
Only you know.

How do I remember,
The first time 
When I came,
To Greece, and saw you
and Others again.
You worked nights,
and I didn't know 
That you were home, 
And that you were sleeping.

Oh, my Uncle.
My Uncle Theodosi
Lived to ninety-four
What your eyes have seen, 
Only you, 
[only you], know. 

What are you doing there ?
( you told me ) .
I worked last night, 
( you told us )
I didn't know, you were inside,
Asleep. 
Me, my mind
was on a girl.
The laughter [laughter]
( i always remember it, that day )
Like it was just yesterday.

I came the second time.
It was only for a short while.
I remember you took me 
Upstairs ,
Upstairs to the second floor of your house.
There we had 
We had a cigar together ,
And how I coughed [ cough ] [ cough ]

Oh, how i remembered it.
My uncle, ninety-four
What Your eyes have seen, 
You lived a life only you know.

Many years passed , 
And I came again ,
To see you.
In two thousand and twelve
August the 18.
I still have the 
Photograph, I took of you .
The Video.
Where You tap your knees,
With the palm of your hands, 
And you played a little tune for me.

Oh, my uncle ,
I didn't get to 
see you again [cry]

Always in my Thoughts.
My uncle ,
Always Always [sigh].
When I come again ,
A candle , a candle, 
I will light ,
For you 
[for you].

[Given By God] 
Your name 

Given by God
