Dolphin (EP Version)

Albert Hammond Jr’s fourth solo album Francis Trouble explores a deeply personal topic – the stillborn death of his twin brother, Francis, and the lingering effects that event has had in his life and music.
In November of 1979, Hammond Jr’s mother, Claudia, miscarried. Although they rushed to the hospital, Claudia and Albert Hammond Sr. were told that the baby was far too premature to live. Albert continued to grow inside of his mother undetected until she was nearly six months pregnant.

Lyrics:
So you're freaking me out
You hide your looks in your skull
I'm catching muted beatings in my lungs
You act like you're in my head
You sit me up in the back
I wanna know your lips upon my tongue
Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I'm Charlemagne

Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can't breathe under your skirt
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette

Do-do-do-do
I don't care

Words come out of your mouth
They hit me hard like a brick
I know I know I know I know
I know you like me possessed
But lately I've been a mess
You got me thinking 
Are we closer than before
Don't like the rules that you like
I'm not a winner in your ring
Out loud a voice in the night
I do it like I'm Charlemagne

Like a heartbeat under your shirt
Like a hard reach into the dirt
But I can't breathe under your skirt
Now I'm waiting on something you said
Like a waitress too good to forget
Like the words sung over cassette

Do-do-do-do
I don't care
You're a cult in this place
I don't care
Watch my skull give and take
I don't care where will we go
I don't care where will we go
I don't care

Kodama (English translation)　　　

Someone said ‘Surely’
And someone promised ‘forever’
But they came and left
I follow the trace of the dream
And I stand in the place of the memory
I watch the story that was already over

I will follow this dim echo
You will be there
Beyond this drowsiness
Let me hear your voice

I follow the trace of the dream
And I stand in the place of the memory
I watch the story that was already over
No past, no future, only now
Here is everything I have

I will follow this dim echo
You will be there
Not to get lost
I am listening far away carefully
Beyond this drowsiness
Let me hear your voice
Let me hear your voice

こだま

きっとって言っても
ずっとって誓っても
寄せては去っていくだけ
夢の跡をたどって
記憶の地に立って
終わった物語を見る　　

かすかなこのこだまを
たどる先にはきみがいる
まどろみの向こうで
その声を聞かせて

夢の跡をたどって
記憶の地に立って
終わった物語を見る
後も先もなくただ今だけで
ここにあるものがすべて

かすかなこのこだまを
たどる先にはきみがいる
はぐれてしまわないように
遠く耳を澄まして
まどろみの向こうで
その声を聞かせて
その声を聞かせて

Leave Me Outta This

Circle be ball
Bargain be mall
Autumn be fall
Leader be tall
Singer be Paul
Laughter is lol
Trafalgar be square
Devil be dare
Sunday be prayer
Leader have hair
Magpie be pair
Electric be chair

Just put one foot in front of the other and walk
Just put one word in front of the other and talk
Just put one hand in front of the other tick tock
I like it when it goes like Clockwork

Farthest (English translation)　　　

If you wish
You will fly off
You couldn’t find the end
In the boundless sky
Even if you change forever
Open the window

You will ride the wind
You couldn’t find the end
In the boundless sky
Even if you throw away language
Open the window

Yes you can find it

果て

願うならば
飛んでいくよ
果てないこの空に
終わりを見つけられない
君ではなくなるとしても
窓を開いて

風にのるよ
果てないこの空に
終わりを見つけられない
言葉を捨てていくとしても
窓を開いて

見つけられるよ
