KEEP MUSIC ON YOUR MIND - LYRICS

VERSE I
Oh, come a bit closer and sing along
No, don't be shy anybody and have some fun
Oh, I am delighted to share my space tonight
So let's pump up the Jam, pump it up and feel all right

CHORUS
Oh, music is a sacred thing, a precious gift from the sky
Let's share it with others and get musically high

VERSE II
Oh my brothers, hmm and my sisters, hey
I wanna thank you so much to be my guests tonight

I love you all from deep inside my heart,
It's all about emotional connection
I love you all for the good spirit you provide
And the exchange of social satisfaction

CHORUS
Oh, friendship is a sacred thing a precious gif t from the sky
Let's share it with others and get musically high

VERSE III
So, come a bit closer and tune into this song
Listen to each other and give space to everyone

Express emotions from deep inside your heart,
Follow the groove and don't worry 'bout a thing
Like a kid playing air-guitar with a smile on its face
Let's rock the house, let's boogie and sing

BRIDGE
But remember that music's all about creating holes between the notes,
You never know: Some music might fall out.......
SILENCE!

VERSE IV
Yes, and come closer to me, yes and be one everybody
I wanna say thank you to you all
For the good spirit you provide
Yeah, keep music on your mind!
ALWAYS!!

Keep Music On Your Mind

GRAY SUNDAY was written, composed and recorded by Timbe in November 2016, as well as he performed all vocals and instruments (including the Kaval flute) on this track. 

This is a song dedicated to the belief in life, to destination and the confidence in the sunshine in me... 

GRAY SUNDAY - LYRICS

INTRO / VERSE I
Gray Sunday
Oh, be nice to me
I wonna see you smile
And feel your posivity

Oh gray Sunday
Hold me in your arms
Bring back my confidence
In this world and in me...

CHORUS I
Sometimes I feel
There's nothin' I can believe in
But even though I can't see the sun
It keeps shinin'

VERSE II
Oh gray Sunday
I know you're not to blame
That today there's no love
That I recieve

It's the way how I feel
And the way I look at things
The mood that I am in
Only depends on me

CHORUS I / SOLO / CHORUS I

CHORUS II
Sometimes I feel
There's nothin' I can believe in
But even though I can't see the sun
//: It keeps shinin' :// 3x
In me....

Gray Sunday

ROLLIN' INTO A DIFFERENT WORLD was written & composed by Timbe in September 1997, somewhere in a basement in the heart of Berlin. This track was created at a time just before Timbe would leave Germany and steer his rolling home back south again, straight into a different world where he spent countless sunny winters to produce his sustainable instruments.

The song has been re-recorded by Timbe 20 years later, in december 2017, in our center for Music & Nature. All vocals & instruments on this track performed by himself, except the drums which gave quite a different spirit to it, compared to the very first take in '97.

ROLLIN´INTO A DIFFERENT WORLD - LYRICS
We're going away
Roling into a different world 
Leavin' you behind 
In the cold gray winter 
Just to go and find some lovin'

We're going into 
The world of no fences
We're going into 
The land of no walls 
We don't give a shit 
About computers
So we enjoy the sunny winter 
And find some lovin' for you

Into the mountains
Into the sea and into the land we go
We're rollin' into a different world 
Rollin'...

Rollin' Into a Different World

The SONG FOR NATURE was written & composed by Timbe in 2014, as well as he performed all vocals and instruments on this track, dedicated to mother earth.

This song was inspired by the poem "I will not Dance to your Beat" by Nnimmo Bassey, an environmental activist, author and poet from Nigeria who represented Friends of the Earth and Africa at the World Peoples Climate Conference. 

SONG FOR NATURE - LYRICS

VERSE
//: This world is over all beautiful
It's fine and it's precious to me 
And I wrote this song for you to see
In life you can choose  
There's nothing that you can not reach

Get out of your routine
Get up onto your feet
It's time sister, don't be asleep
Give nature a right
Use music to unite 
Or I will not dance to your beat :// 2x

OUTRO
Don't privatize our water
'Cause we will not sing with you
Set real solutions and respect mother earth
Unless you do...
We will not dance to your beat!!

Song For Nature

IT'S ABOUT LOVE was written, composed & performed by Timbe on the 4th of November of 2019. A song of faith in the power of love & understanding. 

IT'S ABOUT LOVE - LYRICS

1º VERSE
Sometimes I Feel Down
And It Seems That I
Oh, I Can't Keep My Dream Alive
And It Gets Me Out Of My Mind
And It Seems That You're Gone...

Even In Crazy Times I Trust In Love 
And I Do Hold On
Nothing Can Pull Us Apart
If We Remember Good Things We'll Be Strong
And That Makes Me Believe...

CHORUS
It's About Love
It's About Faith
It's About Trust
It's About Believin' In Us 
And In Life & Love And Affection

2º VERSE
Oh One Day You'll Know Who I Am 
And It Will Give You Faith
And One Day You'll Know That I'm By Your Side
And I'm Not Playing Games

And I Hope One Day You'll See That I'm A Good Man
I Really Do The Best That I Can!!

CHORUS
//: It's About Love
It's About Faith
It's About Trust
It's About Believin' In Us :// 2x

And In Life & Love And Affection
I Love You So Pure That It Makes Me Strong...

Deep inside my heart 
Is so deep that I can feel it now 
And I believe in what I've got

MUSIC & NATURE IS THE KEY
On this chanel we are happy to share some of Timbe's musical creations as well as recordings from the legendary Tuesday Jam Sessions hold at the AGAVE-SCHOOL, a center for Music & Nature run from 2008 to 2024. Located in a green oasis in the only European desert in Almería (Spain), this project was founded by the Desert Artisan and multi-instrumentalist Tim Bernhardt (TIMBE). 
Born into a musicians family, in the last 40 years he collected more than 60 musical instruments that have been played during countless sessions in our solar-powered music studio, surrounded by pure nature. 

The atmosphere of the artistic house inspired many people in their music & art creation and we had quite a few musicians from around the globe playing and recording with us during these 15 years. Among them Timbe's brother Mo Brandis (Incognito, UK), Carlos Tato 'el Kalimbero' (Bajista de Miguel Campello 'El Bicho', Spain), María del Tango (Granada, Spain), Antonio de Haro (Pablo Alborán, Spain), Jonas Lundberg (Räfven, Sweden), Batoto Yetu (Portugal), Ibo Bakker (Amsterdam) and many many others.
