Dream Of Cabo

THE RETURN OF LIGHT
The freezing night is still and thick, but it’s darkness will soon be broken,
The end of longest day ahead and the start of a the new day to come. 
Amidst the snow and biting air, the heartbeat holds steady, 
Anticipating Spring ahead and what the new light of day holds unspoken.

The dancing rays, sky set aglow, bring warmth and light, 
Languor and strife come to a peaceful end, 
Bringing in a change, whence the days will start to bright. 
The solstice, half way through the season, gives a happy mend.

The promising return of warm and gold, 
Sparkles of life and beauty, both will unfold. 
The spiral of life and gift of hope, 
Breathes fresh life into the lands that we roam.

-Dan

You don’t care for the Devil
You don’t care for me
You don’t bare to be troubled
Oh, no, no, no

You don’t care for me, honey
You don’t see what’s right
You don’t care for the money
Oh, no, no, no

Thus
 if you don’t change your mind
I’d rather see you
dead

The devil may care
The blood running through my vein
Demands that you to dare
To share my pain

I want you to stay
To enter my personal hell
To share an eternity
Of passion

Lyrics:

Be the man you can be
Or it might be sad to see
And you might start to ponder
If you failed to see the wonder
Of what could have been
Your life

Be the best that you can be
Don’t judge yourself by any other
Make sure you’re proud of every deed
Whether you’re a lover, or a father
what is to be
Your life

Be the Man (feat. JoGoldie)

Lyrics:

No reason to feel really bad 
No excuses to feel really sad 
You don’t want me, I don’t really care 
You can’t have me, I’ve no time to spare

Clock is ticking, time is running fast 
My life is short, so many things have passed 
You don’t want me, I don’t really care 
You can’t have me, I’ve no time to spare

All is over and the past is past 
We were lovers, and it couldn’t last 
You don’t want me, I don’t really care 
You can’t have me, I’ve no time to spare

You chose another and you made your case 
You left me hanging, threw it in my face 
You don’t want me, I don’t really care 
You can’t have me, I’ve no time to spare

No time for love 
No game to play 
Won’t be afraid 
No reason made 
No time for love 
No plan to solve 
You want it bad 
No reason had

You had it coming 
Because you wronged me 
I know we’re failing 
We don’t belong here

Lyrics:

I'm living in the moment 
But I'm longing for the past 
And passion that took over me 
Yet somehow couldn't last

I feel your touch when I'm alone (when I'm alone) 
I hear you call my name (when you call my name) 
I long for you - just one more night 
No guilt...no harm...no blame...

We've both moved on with someone else 
And that's what will be 
But thoughts of you, they haunt my mind 
Locked deep inside of me

I see you when I close my eyes 
My dreams - you do live in 
My days are spent without you 
At night - we meet again

I long for you - just one more night 
No guilt...no harm...no blame...

And now the past has come and gone 
For now that's where you stay 
But in my mind...and in my heart 
You're never far away

I'll never lose the memories 
From where we did begin 
I'll never say goodbye to you 
...until we meet again.

I long for you - just one more night...

Infatuation (with Pavithra Chari & Jaime J. Ross)

Lyrics:

Darkness fills the nights cold air  
as I walk these streets totally unaware 
of the time I have spent here in this place
a meer mortal man without face

who has gone unnoticed from day to day 
nobody here as got nothing to say
not even a whisper just to say hi
not even a murmur from a passer by

 I'm Just a stranger
a lonely stranger 
A stranger

But as I take the road ahead
all seems so illusive
could these people all be dead
then all would be conclusive

(Break)

I'm just a stranger
a lonely stranger
I'm just another stranger
another lonely stranger
living here in this ghost town
another lonely stranger
I'm just a stranger
living here in this ghost town
this lonely ghost town

A Stranger Living In A Ghost Town (Peter Bennborn & Lee Lucas)

Piano is my instrument, inspired by the world. Sounds like whatever I like, intent on a cool vibe, often somewhere in between Swedish melancholy and Brazilian bittersweetness... 

Peter Bennborn Project is a diverse musical experience ranging from romantic piano ballads to alternative indie metal rock and everything in between, but for country and reggae so far...

The music is either performed alone or in worldwide collaborations, wherever the appropriate musician for the task is located - no limitations and no limits in a borderless world...
